Chapter 270 Asking for Grace
Xie Yu nodded with satisfaction, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.
"You are right, Jun'er. If you copy a Lotus Sutra, it will be a way for me to show my filial piety to my mother. However, remember not to overwork yourself. I value your health."
Lin Junxue nodded slightly. It was enough to just listen to this.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. I am not stupid. I will take good care of myself. However, I am also concerned about my mother's health. It would be better if you send the copied Buddhist scriptures to Yushan as soon as possible. I will feel at ease. I will trouble my two sisters, Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu, and they will have to work hard with me these days."
Xie Yu frowned and said in a deep voice, "Jun'er, you are the queen, and you only asked the concubines in the harem to copy the scriptures. What's so hard about it? You, a queen, copied the scriptures for your mother yourself. If two concubines of lower rank dare to say that it was hard work, I will never forgive them easily."
When Xie Yu heard Lin Junxue's words, he couldn't help but remember that at noon today, Jin Ronghua sent someone to Taiwu Palace to ask him to use the staff for the evening.
The palace maid cried and said that the Queen asked Jin Ronghua to copy scriptures.
He originally thought that Jun'er was suppressing Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu, but he didn't expect that it was for his mother to copy the scriptures.
So why did Jin Ronghua make the palace maid cry? She was so ignorant.
Lin Junxue saw Xie Yu frowning
Today, Zheng Jin sent people to Taiwu Palace, just to cry about her pity and grievances in front of Xie Yu.
Now that she had taken the initiative to speak, if Zheng Jin wanted to make a fuss about what happened today, it would only make Xie Yu even more annoyed.
In this harem, the initiative must be in her own hands, and the most important thing is that she has a mouth.
When I think of the TV series I have filmed in modern times, the hero and heroine are in a passionate and tragic love relationship, but they just don’t talk about misunderstandings.
It was so melodramatic that she felt upset when filming it.
Something that could be solved with just one sentence took eight or ten episodes or even until the finale to resolve the misunderstanding.
Lin Junxue smiled slightly, then changed the subject.
"However, Your Majesty, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you. In fact, today, I asked Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu to copy the scriptures together for a reason."
Lin Junxue didn't intend to hide what happened in Ning'an Palace today.
This incident, perhaps by accident, finally fulfilled Gu Mo's wish to leave the palace and go to the Royal Temple.
Xie Yu was stunned. Today, he was busy with government affairs and didn't know what happened in the harem.
"What happened? Did these two people make you unhappy, Jun'er?"
Lin Junxue said, "Your Majesty, am I so stingy in your eyes? I am the queen, how could you let Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu copy scriptures just because they offended me? It turns out that this is how Your Majesty sees me. I am really sad."
Lin Junxue said this, and seemed really angry, and turned her head away.
Xie Yu stood up, walked in front of her, and sighed helplessly.
"That's not what I meant. Your temper is getting worse. I just asked you a question. Why are you still angry? That's not what I meant."
Seeing Xie Yu coaxing her, Lin Junxue walked down the stairs and raised her misty eyes.
She looked at Xie Yu and said, "Okay, I will forgive the emperor this time."
Xie Yu laughed deeply, stretched out his hand and tapped her forehead.
Gao Cheng was waiting at the door with his head bent. When he saw this scene, he lowered his head silently.
He has served the Emperor for so many years, and now it is certain that the Emperor is truly in love with the Empress.
From now on, I must pay great attention to the affairs of Zhonghe Palace.
During this month, the Emperor only summoned Concubine Mi and Concubine Yan to sleep with him once, apart from coming to Zhonghe Palace.
The emperor may not realize that he is now the queen's exclusive favorite.
The files in the Jingshifang now almost all have the Queen's name on them.
Xie Yu asked, "You, Jun'er, what's the matter? Why did you ask the two of them to copy the scriptures?"
Lin Junxue said softly, "Your Majesty, do you know that today, in Ning'an Palace, Jin Ronghua, Shu Jieyu and Mo Guiren quarreled, and Mo Guiren and Shu Jieyu even fought and were injured. This is the matter of the concubines in the harem. I don't want to make Your Majesty worry, but I think this matter is not a trivial matter and I should report it to Your Majesty."
Xie Yu frowned even deeper, the smile just now disappeared, and anger rose in his heart.
It was really inappropriate for the concubines in the harem to fight each other.
"Noble Lady Mo, she was poisoned, isn't her face ruined? Why didn't she stay in the palace and make trouble? It's not decent for a noble lady to fight with Concubine Concubine Ronghua."
Lin Junxue had guessed it long ago when she heard the bias in Xie Yu's tone.
Xie Yu's reaction was to blame all the faults on Concubine Mo, who was the least favored and had the lowest rank among the three, without asking for any reason.
After all, Zheng Jin and Qin Shushu were both somewhat favored by Xie Yu. Upon hearing this, Xie Yu naturally favored them.
Dog Emperor
Lin Junxue continued, "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be blamed on Concubine Mo. If it was really her fault, why would I not distinguish right from wrong and let Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu copy the Lotus Sutra?"
Xie Yu paused
"You mean, this is not Noble Mo's fault. What's going on?"
Lin Junxue sighed, "Your Majesty, do you know that although the poison has been cured after Concubine Mo was poisoned, black spots are left on her face. During this period, she has been wearing a veil and refused to see anyone. She is upset and has been crying in the palace all day. Her eyes are almost blinded by crying. How can a woman let go of her damaged appearance?"
When Xie Yu thought of Gu Mo, his impression of him was already very vague. He had only slept with him a few times, and it was very boring, so he never summoned him again.
This poisoning incident was indeed an unexpected disaster.
But how could a concubine with a disfigured face who had been staying in the palace honestly come out and commit a crime of insubordination?
"Since Noble Mo's face has been disfigured, why is he still so restless?"
Lin Junxue saw the disgust in Xie Yu's eyes and knew what he was thinking.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Mo has been staying in Ning'an Palace, but Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu are also living in Ning'an Palace. They may have been a little extreme in their words, and Concubine Mo was greatly stimulated, so she made an unwise move today. I hope that Your Majesty can understand that Concubine Mo lost control of her emotions because of her damaged appearance, which is really understandable."
Lin Junxue's words were very tactful, but her meaning was very clear.
It wasn't Gu Mo who was looking for trouble, it was Zheng Jin and Qin Shushu who humiliated Gu Mo first.
How could Xie Yu not understand? He just thought that Lin Junxue was giving face to Zheng Jin and Qin Shushu.
Xie Yu said angrily, "If this is true, it was indeed Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu who started it. Forget it, Concubine Mo has been disfigured, and I don't want to punish her. As for Jin Ronghua and Shu Jieyu, since you have already asked them to copy scriptures for your mother, I will not pursue this matter."
Lin Junxue nodded
"Your Majesty, besides this matter, I have another thing I want to ask for your grace on behalf of Noble Mo."
Yu glanced at her and said, "Jun'er, what do you want to ask for Mo Guiren?"
What should Jun'er ask for on behalf of a noblewoman whose face has been disfigured and who will never receive favor in her life?
