Chapter 571 Weakness
"I know that you hate me. You have always hated me because of that child."
"Noble Concubine, I think you must have frequently gossip about me in front of Your Majesty, otherwise, why would Your Majesty hate me so much!"
"It must be obstructing it, do you think I don't hate you?"
Xiao Yueyao listened to the queen's words, her brows were light, without a trace of emotion.
The queen stood up from the collapse, and took a few steps towards Xiao Yueyao.
"However, you can hate me, you can't take action against Yi'er, since she knows she is an innocent child, she shouldn't use her innocence to frame her."
Xiao Yueyao smiled coldly when she heard the words, "The Empress originally thought so in her heart, but the Empress may have worried too much, not everyone is like you, only scheming and framing are in her mind."
"You keep saying that you are good for Concubine Yi, but I don't see it that way."
"If you are good to her, she knows she is still young, why don't you stop Yipin from entering the palace."
"Not only did you not stop her, you even planned to arrange bedtime for Yi'er. You are the way a sister should be? Have you ever cared about what she is thinking now?"
The queen was startled, Xiao Yueyao's words completely hit her heart.
Xiao Yueyao looked at her with a smile, "You can't wait, you can't wait for Concubine Yi to grow up, you want a child, a child who can help you secure the position of queen, a child who can let your Chu family play with power."
"You don't think about Concubine Yi, Queen, you have always been selfish, you have always been thinking about yourself!"
This is something the empress doesn't want to admit, now Xiao Yueyao has lifted it up and exposed it naked and hurtful.
The queen's face was distorted, and she was completely angry.
"What do you know? Yi'er is 13 years old now. There are many folks who get married and have children at the age of 13. I am her older sister and I know how to treat her well."
Xiao Yueyao smiled, "What kind of sister, my sister was homesick and went back home, but your sister brought her back overnight and beat her? Are you grounded?"
"When you learn about this again, you can pretend that you don't know anything, but you don't."
Every word Xiao Yueyao said was like a knife, which pierced the Queen's heart fiercely.
Empress Qi's chest heaved violently, Xiao Yueyao looked at her for a while, and felt that there was no need to say any more.
Standing up to leave, he said a word neither humble nor overbearing.
"The concubine is leaving."
The queen turned her head, stared viciously at Xiao Yueyao's back, raised her hand in a fit of anger and knocked down all the tea sets on the table.
Mei heard the movement and rushed in, looked at the mess in the room, and silently started to tidy it up.
After Mei cleaned up, the Queen's mood calmed down a lot.
"Your Majesty, why do you have to be angry with the imperial concubine? It's not worth it."
The queen nodded, thought for a few seconds, and said in a deep voice, "Go and tell Shuangxi that she will stop Concubine Yi no matter what in the future, and not let Concubine Yi go to Kunluan Palace to find the noble concubine."
Thinking of how that girl talked back to her for the sake of the imperial concubine last night, the queen felt uncomfortable for a while.
Yipin is her own sister, she can't let her own sister befriend someone she hates.
Yayi was ordered to go out.
—
Concubine Yi was in pain all over her body, the imperial doctor had seen her and had to lie down for three days after taking the medicine before she could get out of bed.
Yipin moved slowly and walked to the door. Just as she opened the door and walked out, Shuangxi probably heard the movement and just happened to rush to the door.
Yipin looked at Shuangxi, and directly reached out to ask her for it.
"What about things?"
Shuangxi looked at Yipin's hand stretched out in front of her, her expression froze, and she pretended to be stupid on purpose.
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? What, why can't the servant understand what you are talking about?"
Yipin's complexion was pale, and she spoke directly.
"I heard something. On the day the concubine sister came back, Lu Chun sent something over. You accepted the item. Give it to me now."
Upon hearing this, Shuangxi knew that this matter must not be concealed, so she simply stopped pretending.
"Your Majesty, I will tell you the truth, my servant threw away the things that the imperial concubine and empress sent me."
Yipin was stunned when she heard the words, "You... how dare you?"
There was no trace of fluster on Shuangxi's face, "Your Majesty, the things sent by the imperial concubine may be poisonous, we don't need them, and the servants saw them, they are all food, the most likely to be poisoned!"
Yipin was so angry that she trembled slightly, "Even if it's poisonous, you should ask me before you throw it away. Shuangxi, if you do this again next time, I will never let you off lightly!"
Shuangxi lowered her head, but there was no trace of guilt on her face.
After a while, Shuangxi raised her head and said, "Your Majesty, don't be angry, let's eat first."
"These meals were delivered by the Empress herself."
Yipin sat down at the table.
Shuangxi was still talking non-stop, "I want my servant to tell me, no matter what, my sister is the best for me."
"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager loves you so much that she even relieved her confinement. Don't be sad, Empress. Concentrate on recuperating in the palace."
After hearing this, Yipin's face became a little better.
She barely ate a few mouthfuls, but couldn't eat any more.
Concubine Yi was standing at the window at the moment, seeing that the weather outside was just right, she wanted to go see the imperial concubine.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she took a few steps, Shuangxi rushed over and stopped in front of her.
"Your Majesty, your injuries are still not healed, and this servant has the guts to ask you, where are you going?"
Concubine Yi frowned and looked at her, "I want to see the concubine sister...'"
After hearing the exact answer, Shuangxi's complexion suddenly became tense, "Your Majesty, if you are going to Kunluan Palace, then please forgive the servant for being rude, you cannot go to the Imperial Concubine and Empress."
Yipin felt incredible, "Why can't I go?"
Shuangxi plausibly said, "The empress doesn't like her being too close to the imperial concubine, so it's better for you to have less contact with the imperial concubine."
Yipin widened her pupils in shock, "Shuangxi, are you crazy? How dare you talk to me like this? Are you the master or am I the master?!"
When Shuangxi heard the words, she didn't show any restraint at all, so she spoke back with her head held high.
"Your Majesty, this servant is all for your own good. Besides, this is an order from the Empress to this servant. I dare not disobey you. So you should just stay in the Hall of Yiyuan obediently."
Yipin asked in a cold voice, "Shuangxi, you are my court lady, mother asked you to serve me, not elder sister, you should listen to me, not elder sister."
Although her tone was cold, but because of the injuries on her body, she sounded extremely weak and lacked any momentum.
