Chapter 894: Winner
Yao Jieyu looked at the imperial concubine with a nervous mood and asked carefully.
"Can I really leave the palace?"
Xiao Xixi nodded: "Yes."
Yao Jieyu's eyes widened slightly, as if she was greatly encouraged.
She took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice.
"I want to leave the palace, but I have to say this to my parents first."
Xiao Xixi said yes.
Seeing that the imperial concubine was so easy to talk to, Yao Jieyu was very grateful and she kept saying thank you.
Concubine Li smiled and said, "If Concubine Yao can leave the palace, we can often make an appointment to go shopping and have dinner in the future."
Thinking of those relaxed and comfortable days, Yao Jieyu couldn't help but laugh.
She nodded vigorously: "Yeah!"
Concubine Yao and Concubine Li returned to Jinxiu Palace.
In the afternoon of the same day, Concubine Li packed up her things and left the palace. This time she left, she only took away one Sumei.
Before leaving, Concubine Li went to the imperial study room and said goodbye to the emperor.
This was her first time entering the imperial study room, but she was not nervous at all and she was so calm that she was unreasonably calm.
"I'll pay homage to the Emperor."
She respectfully gave the emperor a big gift.
If nothing unexpected happens, this will be the last time she saluted the emperor as a concubine in her life.
Luo Qinghan still looked cold and indifferent, with no warmth in his dark eyes.
He asked in a low voice: "Have you packed up all the things?"
Concubine Li: "It's already packed up."
She looked at the young emperor sitting behind the desk, and suddenly felt a lot of emotion in her heart.
She once had a lot of longing for him and tied her life's happiness to him.
But he never gave her a reply.
It is definitely fake to say that you are not willing to accept it at all.
But she had seen through it, and the emperor didn't even see her in his heart. No matter how unwilling she was, it was insignificant to him and he didn't care at all.
In this case, why did she still feel sad for someone who doesn't care about her?
Concubine Li: "I am leaving soon. I have received your care for so many years. Although I have not been favored in the past few years, at least you have not treated me badly in other aspects. You are willing to give me a chance to start over. I am really grateful."
Luo Qinghan: "If you want to thank you, you should thank the imperial concubine. She is the one who will send you away. I just follow her wishes."
Concubine Li pursed her red lips, but she still couldn't help but ask for the doubts in her heart.
"I have always had something I don't understand. I didn't dare to ask before, but now I'm leaving soon, and I may not have the chance to see you again in the future. I dare to ask, Who is your favorite woman in your life? Is Concubine Xiao? Or the Imperial Concubine?"
Luo Qinghan asked back without answering: "What do you think?"
Concubine Li: "I originally thought that your favorite concubine was Concubine Xiao. The reason why I favored the concubine was just to treat her as a substitute. But judging from your attitude towards the concubine, it is definitely not the attitude you should have towards a substitute."
Luo Qinghan: "You already have the answer in your heart."
Concubine Li was slightly stunned and then chuckled.
"Sure enough."
It turns out that the most impossible answer is precisely the truth of the facts.
After laughing, Concubine Li sighed again, as if she had sighed out the last trace of obsession in her heart.
She felt extremely relaxed.
"I have something to ask for."
Luo Qinghan: "You said."
Concubine Li: "I want to see Concubine Tuberculosis again before leaving."
Luo Qinghan looked at her quite surprised.
But he didn't ask the reason, but just responded lightly: "Go."
Concubine Li gave him a big gift again.
When she got up, she couldn't help but say something to the emperor.
"The Imperial Concubine is a good person, I hope you don't let her down."
Luo Qinghan responded softly: "Yes."
Concubine Li withdrew from the imperial study room and nodded slightly to Eunuch Chang who was guarding the door.
Eunuch Chang bowed to her: "I wish the queen a good journey."
Concubine Li walked down the steps step by step.
She sat in a carriage and headed to Yanyu Palace.
Yanyu Palace has been closed for half a year, and Concubine Turtle was trapped inside. Except for Doctor Fang and two nannies, she has never seen anyone else.
Outsiders only know that she is sick, but they don’t know what disease she has, and they don’t know if her disease can be cured.
The guards guarding the gate received an order from the emperor. They opened the gate of Yanyu Palace and respectfully invited Concubine Li in.
After entering the Yanyu Palace, Concubine Li found that it was far more desolate than expected.
If an uninformed person enters here, he may think he has entered the cold palace.
Under the guidance of the nanny, Concubine Li met the tuberculosis concubine who was lying in bed.
The concubine was lying on the bed, with a pale complexion, her lips turned white, and her long hair was scattered behind her. She was very sick at first glance.
Maybe it was because she was locked up for too long that she was a little nervous now.
When she saw Concubine Li coming, she was stunned at first, then struggled to sit up and screamed.
"What are you here to do? Are you here to harm me? Madam Zhang! Madam Wang! Come and protect me quickly, someone is going to harm me!"
Madam Zhang, who was standing next to her, felt very embarrassed.
She hurriedly comforted the concubine.
"Calm down, this is Empress Li, she is here to visit you."
Concubine Tuber: "No, she is here to harm me! You go and notify the emperor and ask the emperor to send someone to protect me!"
Madam Zhang: "The Empress Li only came to visit you after she received the emperor's permission."
The Concubine Tubers was stunned.
She hugged her head and murmured, "The emperor knows that Concubine Li has a grudge against me? Why did he ask Concubine Li to come to me? Does the emperor also want to let me die? No, the emperor is not so ruthless, he will definitely not be willing to treat me like that."
Concubine Li frowned and looked at her: "You have been sick for a long time and have become confused by your brain, right?"
The Concubine Tuberculosis suddenly raised her head, stared at her with her eyes straight, and asked.
"You have received permission from the emperor to come to me, then you must have met the emperor. What did the emperor say to you? Did he ask you to pick me up?"
Concubine Li: "The emperor has never mentioned that I took the initiative to visit you."
The Concubine Tuber did not hear the answer she wanted and stared at her dissatisfiedly.
Seeing this, Concubine Li was not sure whether Concubine Tuberculosis had a normal mind, but when she came, she simply said everything she wanted to say.
“I’m leaving soon and will never come back.
I specifically look at you again before leaving, just to talk to you a few more words at the end.
We entered the palace together, and were also chosen to be the prince's concubine together.
At that time, there were only two concubines in the Eastern Palace.
I have always regarded you as a thorn in my eyes, and you have always regarded me as a thorn in my flesh.
Our relationship is the same as water and fire. To put it bluntly, I really wished you could die quickly.
Later, more and more people were in the Eastern Palace, but the prince favored Concubine Xiao alone.
He can't tolerate anyone else in his eyes.
I gradually began to understand that even if I fought with you, we would not be the final winner."
These words seemed to stimulate the Concubine Turtle. She glared at Concubine Li viciously and said angrily: "Shut up!"
...
Good morning everyone ~
