Chapter 454: Concubine Liang's move is a self-torture tactic (68 votes plus additional content)

Although he understood, the emperor still had a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes: "I only said that Concubine Liang should reflect on herself in the Qin'an Palace for three days. When did I say that she would be locked up in there at night?"

"Order someone to send Concubine Liang back to Changchun Palace, and then send the imperial physician to take good care of her."

Li Changde bowed his head and said, "Yes!"

Nangong Xuanyu's tone turned colder, and he continued, "The imperial concubine has gone too far this time! Send someone to Yongshou Palace to tell her that if she doesn't have the tolerance to tolerate others and can't manage the harem well, there are many capable concubines in the harem!"

"I don't want to see something like this again!"

It's not the first time that the Imperial Concubine bullied the concubines in the harem. Your Majesty always turns a blind eye.

This is the first time I have spoken such harsh words to the Imperial Concubine.

Li Changde understood that His Majesty was not in love with Concubine Liang because of his favor for Concubine Gui, which was not as strong as before...

"Slave, you obey!"

After getting the desired result, the concubines surrounding outside also left.

Those who were willing to come this time were all those who truly cared about Concubine Liang. They simply followed Concubine Hao and went to Changchun Palace to visit.

When they arrived, Concubine Liang had not yet arrived. It was a long time before they saw Concubine Liang being carried back on a sedan chair.

Her high fever had not yet subsided, and she was almost unconscious while sitting in the sedan chair.

The imperial physician trotted along beside him.

"Empress Liang..."

Concubine Hao and the others all had worried looks on their faces, but they also knew that they could not delay the imperial physician from treating Concubine Liang, so they all stepped aside.

After a long time, the imperial physician finally came out from the inner room, and everyone immediately surrounded him: "Imperial physician, how is Concubine Liang?"

The imperial physician bowed and said, "This time, Empress Liang Fei has a high fever caused by catching a cold. I will prescribe medicine to reduce the fever first."

"The cold is not the most difficult thing. The difficult thing is that Concubine Liang was poisoned before. She just recovered and then suffered this. She must take good care of herself in the future, otherwise her physical condition will become much weaker..."

Everyone was angry and distressed!

Why would such a good person like Concubine Liang suffer such a disaster?

Concubine Hao said worriedly, "Imperial Physician, please treat Concubine Liang."

"My Lord, you are too kind. This is what I should do."

After sending the imperial physician away, everyone went into the inner room to check, but Concubine Liang had not yet woken up.

Ruoli knelt on the ground and bowed to Concubine Hao and the others: "I bow to thank you all for your kindness!"

"If it weren't for you ladies, the queen would be in great danger..."

Seeing that Concubine Liang's cheeks were flushed with fever, everyone remembered her goodness in the past and felt more sympathetic towards her.

Concubine Liang needed to rest, and the inner room was not a place to talk. When they reached the outer room, Concubine Hao asked, "Ruoli, you and Concubine Liang were imprisoned in the Qin'an Palace together, and you were fine, so why did Concubine Liang become so sick?"

Ruoli couldn't hold it back any longer and burst into tears, accusing: "Not only did the Imperial Concubine lock me and her in the Qin'an Palace, but at night, in such a cold temperature, the Imperial Concubine only threw a quilt in there and didn't even allow anyone to eat!"

"The queen was kind-hearted and worried that I would get cold, so she ordered me to wrap myself in the quilt. But she herself fell ill..."

"Wuwuwu... It's all my fault. I'm useless and I couldn't protect the Majesty..."

Everyone in the harem knows about Concubine Liang's kindness and care for the palace maids, so it is not surprising that she made such a choice.

The more this happened, the more people complained about Concubine Liu.

"After all, Concubine Liang is one of the four concubines. His Majesty hasn't even spoken yet, so how can Concubine Gui torture her like this?"

"Yes, Concubine Liang is one of the four concubines, and she is still like this. If one day, people like us fall into the hands of Concubine Gui, what will happen?"

For a moment, everyone was angry for Concubine Liang, but also felt that they were in danger if one of them were to be killed.

"Not only is the Imperial Concubine domineering, she is also vicious! If the harem continues to be dominated by her, will we sisters have a way to survive in the future?"

"Your Majesty must know what the Imperial Concubine has done!"

Concubine Hao and others looked at each other, then gathered together to discuss.

In fact... they don't need to do anything.

When Concubine Liang was carried back from the Qin'an Palace, she was almost unconscious. There were countless eyes watching this incident in the palace, and it had already spread like wildfire.

Nangong Xuanyu, who was in the Yangxin Palace, naturally also heard about it.

"Is there such a thing?!"

He thought that the imperial concubine was just being petty and wanted to lock up Concubine Liang in the Qin'an Palace to vent her anger. But food, tea, charcoal basins and quilts were not missing.

So after the incident, he turned a blind eye and only gave the imperial concubine a few verbal warnings.

I never thought... that the imperial concubine could be so cruel!

Not only was no one allowed to send food to Concubine Liang, but it was so cold at night, there was not even a charcoal basin, and she was only given a quilt.

Isn't this a deliberate attempt to humiliate Concubine Liang?

Concubine Liang wrapped herself in a quilt, causing her personal maid to catch a cold and fall ill. Although this was not wrong, rumors that would damage her reputation would surely spread in the palace.

Besides, with Concubine Liang's personality, she would never do such a thing.

She protected her personal maid, but she was the one who suffered.

At this moment, the emperor's suspicions about Concubine Liang disappeared a lot, but his dissatisfaction with Concubine Liu was growing day by day!

He stood up and strode out: "Let's go to Changchun Palace!"

"Yes!"

……

After visiting Concubine Liang, Concubine Kang came to Zhongcui Palace as a guest and told Shen Zhinian all these things in vivid detail.

Finally, Concubine Kang said, "...Now everyone in the harem says that Concubine Liang is as kind as a bodhisattva. Other masters would never take the lives of palace maids seriously if they encountered such a thing. Only Concubine Liang is so kind."

"I feel that in this deep palace, a moderate amount of kindness may be true. But if kindness is excessive, it will seem fake."

Especially since they lived together in Changchun Palace, she had more contact with Concubine Liang than with other palace concubines. She always felt that there was some unknown thoughts hidden under Concubine Liang's mask.

Handan asked curiously, "Lady Kang, do you think that Concubine Liang's move is a self-torture trick?"

"She's really willing to take risks..."

Concubine Kang said calmly: "Who knows."

Shen Zhinian smiled and said, "Whether kindness is real or fake is not important. What is important is how others see it, how Your Majesty sees it."

"Even if Concubine Liang really used the self-torture tactic this time, so what? Apart from the physical suffering, she has won a great victory in other aspects."

She not only won the hearts of the people in the palace, but also gained the sympathy of the concubines in the harem, and even won the pity of the emperor.

Not only did Concubine Liang come out of Qin'an Palace early, she also tricked Concubine Liu!

I'm afraid that after Concubine Liu learns the news, even if she doesn't get angry to death, she won't know how to explain to the emperor.

Even if Nangong Xuanyu did not blame Concubine Liu, she had lost the hearts of the people in the harem!

And Concubine Liang, who was in charge of all this, still had clean hands and was still the perfect victim.
