Chapter IBMLS Ch.95 Reward (1)
Empress Dowager Lu sent her most trusted female officer around to Qiyang Manor to help, but within a few days, the night when Prince Qiyang woke up, she was driven back to the palace in a desperate manner.
Empress Dowager Lu felt disrespected. As the saying goes, not for the sake of the monk but for that of the Buddha, the Empress Dowager gifted someone to them, even if the person was just a sweeper in the Qingning Manor, the person is still a gift to them, and they should treat them respectfully.
What happened in the end, the Empress Dowager Lu gifted her highest ranked and most dignified fourth ranked female official to the eldest son, he didn’t appreciate her kind gesture, and he even chased them out that night. The Sun official and the others returned to the palace overnight, and it was said that they cried for a long time in front of the Empress Dowager.
For the younger generation to punish the elders, this kind of a matter would be deemed as a joke in an ordinary person’s family, but when this happened in the palace, no one dared to talk about it. Especially because the Empress Dowager Lu wasn’t Prince Qiyang’s real mother. She was originally just a kept mistress when Xie Yi was stationed out in the field. Later, the females from the Xie Manor were all killed by Emperor Gong of the later Jin Dynasty. Mother Yin was also killed, there was no one left in the Xie Manor, that was how Lu became the empress.
Later Xie Yi became the emperor, and when he died, the emperor was replaced by Xie Rui. Lu was put in an advantageous position, and suddenly became the most supreme woman of the country, the Empress Dowager of the Ye Dynasty. The Empress Dowager Lu gifted someone to him. Originally, she wanted to make herself seem like a caring mother who was caring for her children. However, Xie Xuanchen slapped her back to her original form and exposed her intentions when he punished them.
Empress Dowager Lu was extremely angry and raged for quite some time in the Qingning Manor, she scolded the immature Princess Qiyang and the female officials. She used to just be a kept mistress. She couldn’t stand up straight in front of the original young master, Xie Xuanchen, so she didn’t dare to scold Xie Xuanchen. In the end, she could only accuse Mu Mingtang. In the end, the Sun official, Yu Changshi and the others, who were ordered to go to Qiyang Manor to complete the task, didn’t end well either.
Empress Dowager Lu was upset when she saw the Sun official’s sick appearance, the people around her were tortured to this extent, for sure Empress Lu was angry, but she was even more angry that Xie Xuanchen didn’t take her seriously. When the Empress Dowager Lu saw the Sun official, Yu Changshi and the others, she seemed to get a glimpse on how undignified she was in front of Xie Xuanchen. Empress Dowager Lu was frustrated, and of course she was reluctant to see these people before her eyes.
The Sun official was poked with the needle several times, and she drank the whole bowl of medicine soup in front of everyone. Her body suffered a lot. In the end, when she went back to the palace, she was still scolded and hated by the Empress Dowager, this was really a double loss for her.
In the palace, flattering one’s superiors and trampling on one’s juniors was the most common act. Once she reveals a slight crack, some people will find ways to pull her down. Not to mention the commotion this has caused in the Qingning Manor, but Chuigong hall wasn’t that peaceful either.
The emperor had a terrible headache. A line of people stood there neatly as he looked at the imperial cases. The emperor was too lazy to even get angry now.
The emperor calmly threw a scroll in front of the minister of the Imperial Medical Bureau and asked: “Didn’t you say that he was badly injured this time, and he’ll be in a coma for at least half a month. It’s only been a few days ago, but this scroll has already reported to me that Xie Xuanchen had woken up.”
The minister of the Imperial Medical Bureau also found it unbelievable. He heard from the imperial physician, who had returned, say that Xie Xuanchen’s base was extremely weak, and he had already overexerted his force. He thinks that this would be his last time going manic. The imperial physician who checked on his pulse already said so, even if Xie Xuanchen didn’t cough up blood, he still had to lie down for at least ten days. How is he already awake?
