Chapter 308 The female protagonist ascends to the position of Empress Dowager through her son.
The emperor lamented that his fairy was not perfect, but he was also reluctant to give up on her.
Xu Ruyi saw that the Emperor had stopped.
The Emperor has stopped, but she cannot stop.
She snuggled into the emperor's arms.
When the Emperor touched Consort Xu's smooth, jade-like skin, his resentment outweighed his anger.
He can't just give up like this.
If you have bad breath, then you should just avoid it.
Things are gradually getting back on track.
The Emperor also realized that Consort Xu was truly a treasure, and thankfully, he hadn't given up on her earlier.
Just as the temperature inside the room was gradually rising.
The emperor smelled a foul odor again.
This time, it wasn't the foul smell coming from Xu Meiren's mouth.
It emanated from Xu Meiren.
Every pore was emitting a foul odor.
The Emperor couldn't help but vomit on Consort Xu.
The two of them were stunned by the vomiting.
The Emperor quickly distanced himself from Consort Xu.
The stench emanating from Xu Meiren, combined with the stench of her vomit, nearly suffocated him.
Consort Xu had no idea what had gotten into the Emperor.
He actually vomited all over her.
She vomited all that disgusting stuff onto her chest, and it felt like there was something on her face too.
Xu Meiren couldn't help but scream.
At the sound of the scream, the people guarding outside immediately rushed in.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
"Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor!"
A group of eunuchs and guards rushed in.
Then I saw the emperor standing to one side, and apart from not wearing any clothes, everything else seemed normal.
As for Xu Meiren...
Xu Meiren didn't dare to look too much, she just lay in bed.
She still has the energy to scream, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
Xu Meiren barged in upon seeing so many men.
The whole person is not well.
She is finished.
The emperor's face certainly didn't look good.
Xu Meiren ruined the fairy in his heart.
And that sudden scream just now attracted so many people in.
He made no preparations whatsoever.
Even if he were the emperor, no one would dare to talk about him.
But others will secretly gossip about it.
And so many people got to see Xu Meiren's body.
Even if Consort Xu wasn't a fairy, she was still a concubine in his harem.
What does it mean to be seen like this?
And Xu Meiren even screamed.
Is this because they thought the first time they attracted enough people?
Are we going to lure everyone in the palace over to see him make a fool of himself?
The emperor wished he could just kill Consort Xu.
However, upon seeing Consort Xu's face, the Emperor felt a pang of pity.
Send all the guards away; there are no assassins.
Send someone to fetch water.
Clean up the vomit.
Make the bed tidy up.
Remember to send Miss Xu back.
The Emperor no longer wanted to stay there, so he turned and went to the Imperial Study.
He should just stay there for the night.
Upon arriving at the Imperial Study, the Emperor instructed his personal steward to deal with the guards and eunuchs who had broken in that night.
The palace servants who were assigned to clean up afterward were also dealt with.
He forbade anyone to spread the word that the emperor vomited while favoring a concubine.
Only the dead won't spread the word.
As for Xu Meiren, he hasn't decided yet.
On the one hand, the emperor felt that she could not be allowed to live.
If it weren't for her, none of this would have happened tonight.
But Xu Meiren is like a fairy.
Of course, she's no longer worthy of it.
I don't know what she ate, it smells so bad.
Also, my body smelled very nice at first, but it became increasingly smelly later.
It sounds like it's the scent on her body.
The stronger the concentration, the more foul it smells.
Could it be that the spices used were incorrect?
The Emperor decided to give Xu Ruyi another chance.
It's best not to use any random spices this time.
The next day, news spread throughout the palace.
Last night, a fire broke out in a side hall of the Emperor's bedchamber.
It was Lady Xu who accidentally knocked over the candle, which ignited the bed curtains and caused the fire.
Many of the guards and palace servants who tried to put out the fire perished in the flames.
The fire was so intense that Xu Meiren almost burned to death inside.
This whole thing was caused by Xu Meiren, but Xu Meiren herself almost died.
Therefore, Xu Ruyi was punished with a month of confinement, a year's salary deduction, and demoted to the rank of Xu Da Ying.
A fire broke out in the Emperor's bedroom; this is terrifying.
Fortunately, the Emperor wasn't there last night, otherwise Consort Xu wouldn't have been spared even if she had given her life.
Consort Wang was the first to visit the Emperor, bringing him the finest tonics.
As for Lady Xu...
Consort Xu made such a big mistake and was still demoted to a low-ranking concubine.
It was obvious that she had been rejected by the emperor.
Consort Wang did not keep any useless people around her.
Not taking advantage of her misfortune was the only pity Consort Wang could feel for Xu Ruyi.
The imperial concubines lined up one by one to visit the emperor.
However, it was said to have been burned.
Look at that side hall, there are no traces of it being burned.
But if the emperor says it's burned, then it's burned.
Those who died while putting out the fire, that's who died while putting out the fire.
The families of those people received a sum of money and went home with their remains, which had been burned to ashes.
No one dared to investigate what had happened last night.
When someone brought up this matter during a tea party at Kunning Palace, Jiang He asked them not to mention it.
No matter where I am, I won't listen, I won't look, and I won't talk about this.
Judging from the way the Empress looked, the others seemed to know the inside story.
However, since the Empress said this matter should not be mentioned, they never brought it up again.
There are also many speculations about Consort Wang's side.
But speculation is just speculation.
Without any clues, they could only rely on imagination. In the end, the matter was left unresolved.
After spending several days rebuilding the place, the Emperor finally decided to go and see Xu Ruyi again.
I'm worried that what happened last time will happen again.
The emperor had just replaced his entourage with a new group of people and did not want to be forced to replace them again.
Moreover, Xu Ruyi was confined to her quarters and could not come out at this time.
The Emperor then went to Xu Ruyi's place.
Upon seeing the Emperor arrive, Xu Ruyi immediately sent someone to inform Consort Wang.
They thought Xu Ruyi had already been abandoned by the Emperor.
Unexpectedly, while he was still under house arrest, the Emperor came to visit him.
Xu Ruyi was also excited when she saw the Emperor arrive.
Because of being confined to her quarters and demoted, Xu Ruyi has had a very difficult time these past few days.
Putting everything else aside, the daily meals alone are far inferior.
It's always the same cold food.
Moreover, there was only a bowl of vegetables, with no meat at all.
Xu Ruyi thought that the previous month of bed rest was already difficult, but she didn't expect that the days now were the real hardship.
But now the Emperor has arrived.
Does this mean that the Emperor has forgiven her?
Xu Ruyi later realized that the Emperor was probably angry because of her screaming.
Moreover, I heard that all the guards and eunuchs died while trying to put out the fire.
Xu Ruyi planned to apologize to the Emperor properly.
Even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman.
The Emperor still thinks about her.
She tried her best to increase her importance in the emperor's heart.
The Emperor came here with the mindset of giving it another try.
The Emperor did not stop Xu Ruyi from taking the initiative.
If Xu Ruyi satisfies him today, he can restore Xu Ruyi's rank.
If it cannot satisfy him.
Then the emperor would completely abandon Xu Ruyi.
