NOVEL NEXT Chapter 303 Let her taste the taste of ruin
"You're right. If it weren't for that bitch Ye Qingran, I wouldn't have suffered so much. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been exiled from the General's Palace. I would still be the young lady of the General's Palace. Even if I couldn't be the queen, You can definitely marry into a good family, so why would you marry that beast like Zhao Zhiming?"
"Yes, if it hadn't been for her, my parents wouldn't have died on the road. This is all her fault."
Concubine Xian put down the ointment in her hand and said, "Lian'er, she has done so many wrong things, how can you see that she is still out there enjoying life and enjoying herself?"
"Of course I refuse, and she has always only cared about eating and drinking for herself. She has so much money, but she still has to argue with me for dozens of taels. If possible, I would rather let her live on the street and become a beggar. It would be best if everyone Everyone spurned her and let her taste the taste of ruin."
"Okay, it's good that you have such determination, but such determination requires patience to achieve success. From now on, you need to work harder to learn rules and etiquette. When you become proficient, I can let you develop in the palace. Is it because of my own power or luck that I am favored by His Majesty?"
"Really? Can I also have such an opportunity?"
"That's natural. As long as you want it, there's nothing you can't do."
Ye Yunlian nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I will study hard."
Seeing her confident look, Concubine Xian smiled.
How can such an idiot deserve to compete with himself for His Majesty's favor? If Ye Yunlian really has such luck, she will definitely kill Ye Yunlian before she gets favored, and will never leave any hidden danger for herself.
But Ye Yunlian never thought about this at all, but secretly decided to work harder to avenge herself and live a better life.
In the imperial study, the emperor looked at the book sent by the third prince and felt very annoyed.
It lists evidence of corruption and bribery by several important officials, including personnel, amounts of stolen money, and even fractions.
In anger, he directly ordered these people to be dismissed and investigated.
But what he didn't notice was that all these officials were the ones who recommended the third prince to the north in the hall that day, without exception.
At night, the emperor turned over Concubine Xian's sign.
Originally, the emperor was in a bad mood today because of the corruption of the ministers, so the emperor did not plan to call anyone to attend the bedchamber, but the sign he opened happened to be Concubine Xian's. He had not been to Concubine Xian's palace for several days, so he still planned to go and have a look. .
When he arrived at Concubine Xian's bedroom, his face was still not very good-looking.
Concubine Xian gently took off his cloak and asked softly: "Your Majesty doesn't seem happy?"
"Well, there is indeed something that gives me a headache."
"I don't know what kind of trouble your Majesty has encountered. I am willing to share your worries with you."
"You are interested. It is not a troublesome thing. It's just that San'er handed me a piece of news today and investigated several corruption cases for me. This matter involved many ministers, all of whom are my ministers. It really makes me sad. Sad.”
Concubine Xian went over the words in her mind and comforted her softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this corruption matter can be big or small. The imperial court is employing people. If they are arrested because of the money, it will inevitably make those officials I feel panic in my heart. If I panic, I won’t be able to do things properly for His Majesty.”
The emperor's expression softened a little: "What my beloved concubine said makes sense. It's just that officials are corrupt. If I don't punish them properly, the same thing will definitely happen in the future. The treasury will be eaten by them."
Having said this, the emperor remembered the sudden and inexplicable disappearance of things in the treasury, and his face turned a little darker.
"Your Majesty can just punish them with small punishments. As long as they can be deterred, the actual intensity of the punishment is another matter."
Concubine Xian squeezed his shoulders for him and said softly, "Your Majesty, let's do this. If you continue to worry, the little time I and your Majesty spend together will be eaten up by political affairs."
After hearing this, the emperor felt better and said with a smile: "What my concubine said is that I have neglected my concubine these days, so I will make it up to you tonight."
After saying that, he picked up Concubine Xian and put her on the bed.
Early the next morning, Concubine Xian changed the emperor's clothes, but she did not forget to tell her: "Your Majesty must not forget that small punishments and big warnings should not chill the hearts of those loyal ministers."
The emperor nodded, but still said: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. If you continue, I will punish you."
"Yes, I am talking too much."
Concubine Xian smiled and sent him out of the inner hall.
After the emperor left, Concubine Xian lost her smile and her eyes were filled with hatred: "You, the third prince, are doing these little things behind your back. I want to see how capable you are."
Before the emperor revealed the minister's corruption, Concubine Xian received news that the third prince was investigating the minister's private affairs.
She had been in the palace for so long, and although she did not have the support of her mother's family, she still had some helpers in the previous dynasty with her own skills, and several of these helpers were exposed for corruption by the third prince.
No matter who this incident was directed at, it had a considerable impact on her.
Fortunately, the emperor listened to her suggestion and would not punish her too severely. Otherwise, wouldn't it be equivalent to breaking half of her hand?
In short, she will never let this matter go.
These days, under the influence of Concubine Xian, Ye Yunlian is not so resistant to grandma's teaching methods, and naturally learns faster.
As long as you learn quickly, you will be beaten less. Ye Yunlian has really learned a lot.
She thought this was all she had to learn, but what she didn't expect was that after a few days of rest, Concubine Xian found her another master, but this time it was not about etiquette, but martial arts.
Ye Yunlian didn't understand what she, a maid, wanted to do to learn martial arts. Only later did she realize that she had misunderstood.
Concubine Xian did not intend for her to be a maid from the beginning, but to be a real helper, a helper who could perform tasks. As for etiquette, it was just the basic rules for surviving in the palace.
After experiencing her grandma's teachings, she would no longer resist learning martial arts.
After all, she also knows that if she wants revenge, learning martial arts is the fastest way.
Besides, it's not so easy to find someone who can teach her martial arts outside the palace, and she doesn't have to pay for it herself. She is eager for such a good thing.
The person who taught her martial arts was a young man who seemed to be much easier to talk to than her grandma.
Ye Yunlian also felt a lot more relaxed. Although the training was very tiring, she would not be beaten easily. The master was also kind. He rarely scolded her when teaching, and would also bring her some strange gadgets to make her feel more comfortable during the training. Still interesting.
It was only in the next few days that things completely changed.
