Chapter 359 It’s too late
Di Xiuyan: "Leave it to Your Majesty, I am not interested."
He didn't even bother to say polite words.
"This is a little gift from the Emperor and me. I hope Your Highness will not refuse it." Concubine De stood up, looking a little aggressive.
Seeing Di Xiuyan's expression change, Concubine De quickly smiled and said, "It's a reward from the Emperor, how can Your Majesty refuse it?"
He smiled again: "The emperor also loves you. Seeing that you have won so many victories for the Dafeng Kingdom, he wants to have more people to serve the prince."
Di Xiuyan smiled gently and stood up calmly. "I have been a soldier for many years, leading the army to fight for Dafeng. If I don't even have the right to live alone with the woman I love, what military achievements can I talk about?"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the guards behind him reached for the scabbard with their right hands.
They felt the chill of their master and instinctively wanted to draw their swords.
Concubine De's face turned pale, and her tone of voice changed a little. "Your Highness, do you not like them? I can also bring in a new batch."
"I already have Yanyan, and the imperial family does not allow concubines according to its rules." His words were forceful and his attitude was firm.
Concubine De smiled awkwardly, "It is natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Even ordinary families have wives and concubines serving them at the same time, let alone a well-known figure like the Regent?"
"I've made the decision. Please give me some face, Prince Regent."
She pointed at the charming girls and said, "Your Majesty, please keep half of them. If you are worried that Miss Chu Yan will be unhappy, I will go and talk to her in person on your behalf?"
"Pah." A teapot on the table broke. Defei took a look and thought it was a natural crack and didn't take it seriously.
Di Xiuyan: "I don't want anyone to disturb her."
"These women can either be left to your majesty, or sent to Yuquan Temple to become nuns. Your majesty can decide for yourself."
The girls looked at each other and panicked instantly. Some of the smarter ones had already started wiping their tears.
Concubine De is the emperor's person, how could she give them to His Majesty?
The only way out is to become a nun.
Why do you want to be accompanied by Buddha for the rest of your life when you haven't even enjoyed all the glory and wealth?
Concubine De's face turned pale, and she realized that something was wrong. Why was Di Xiuyan so stubborn and had such deep feelings for Mu Wanyan?
She wanted to back off, but she remembered what Pei Lingsong had said: If Concubine De didn't settle Mu Wanyan's matter, he would take her to the tomb and make her the first imperial concubine to be buried with the emperor in Dafeng.
So Concubine De took out a silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead and started a new round of tests.
"It doesn't matter if the prince looks down on these inferior maids. Our princess Chuyun is beautiful and intelligent."
"I originally wanted to wait a few years before discussing marriage, but I think the Regent has a good character and is the best husband."
"I will give you Chuyun, what do you think?"
Di Xiuyan's eyes were cold without even opening their eyelids. "This prince has said that I will only marry Yanyan. If Concubine De is anxious to marry her daughter, this prince can hold a martial arts competition for the princess in the military camp."
Imitating her tone of voice, I asked word by word, "What do you think, Madam?"
"You..." De Fei was angry. "How can Chu Yun, a woman of great wealth and status, marry those reckless men in the military camp?"
Emperor Xiuyan: "All my ancestors were born into a military family, including myself, who also rose to my current position as a soldier. I don't think my Xuanwu Army is reckless."
"That's not what I meant. I just..."
"If you have something to say, please say it directly. There is no need to beat around the bush. I don't have much time." It would be great if Gu Yeran came. He should be able to speak better than me.
De Fei pondered for a moment, and then stopped pretending. She cleared her throat and got straight to the point:
"Whoever gets the Phoenix Girl gets the world. I believe the prince has also seen the wonders tonight."
Di Xiuyan frowned and motioned for her to continue.
Concubine De: "The girl the prince is going to marry is Fengnu, she is the one that only the emperor deserves to have!"
Emperor Xiuyan: "I have no intention of seizing the throne, Madam, please be careful with your words!"
Concubine De: "I know that the prince is sincere to His Majesty, but if you marry Miss Chu Yan, what will others think? What will the civil and military officials and the people think of the prince?"
"Now, Your Majesty, the only way to prove your loyalty to the royal family is to hand over Mu Chuyan and send her to the emperor's bed!"
"Swish, swish, swish--" Several swords were unsheathed. Before Concubine De finished her words, the guards behind Emperor Xiuyan drew their swords at their waists one after another.
They all felt how angry the master was.
Defei fell to the ground and felt the power of the Xuanwu Army for the first time.
"Are you planning to rebel? This is the imperial palace? How dare you draw your sword against me?"
Emperor Xiuyan didn't even look at Concubine De, and prepared to leave with his guards.
De Fei shouted, "My Lord, as long as you agree to offer Mu Wanyan to me, you can ask for any conditions!"
"Swoosh--" Emperor Xiuyan pulled out a soft sword from the guard's waist, stabbed it through Concubine De's bun, and stabbed it into the chair behind her.
"One more thing, this king doesn't mind making the rumors come true."
The sword tip almost pierced through Concubine De's scalp. Concubine De's life was not in danger, but blood was flowing from her scalp.
The maid was shocked when she saw it. The empress, who had been dignified all her life, actually urinated in public.

Night falls, Pei Lingsong sleeps in his bedroom.
He had previously taken the golden elixir given to him by Long Yuan, and now it felt as if there was a raging fire in his body, making him so hot that he could not sit still.
"Go and help me summon Feng Nu. I need her to cure the poison."
He patted the bed heavily, "Where is Concubine De? Where did Concubine De go? Why hasn't Fengnv been sent here yet?"
"I want to detoxify. I want Phoenix Girl to help me absorb the disease."
Concubine De arrived late, with a piece of gauze wrapped on her head. She looked wilted, like an eggplant hit by frost.
"Your Majesty, please give me some more time. The Regent is unwilling."
"Waste!" Pei Lingsong didn't care whether she was injured or not, and threw a teacup directly at her forehead.
Blood was gushing out, and the wound was bigger than the previous one.
"It was you who promised me that you could do it."
He pointed at Concubine De and cursed, "If anything happens to me, you will be the first one to be buried with me."
Concubine De wiped her tears and whispered, "Yes," and then ordered people to pick out the two most beautiful maids and send them over.
She has fair skin, beautiful looks, soft voice, and a delicate figure and sweet mouth.
Pei Lingsong then barely suppressed his anger, pulled the tent, and gladly accepted it.
The hibiscus tent was warm, and Pei Lingsong had a last burst of consciousness. It was not until the second half of the night that he was able to barely get rid of the heat in his body.
The beautiful woman walked out with a smile on her face and a red face.
Although Pei Lingsong looks sick, he doesn't look like someone who has been ill for a long time.
-
The next morning, Su Deping came to help Pei Lingsong get up and change clothes.
When I lifted the bed curtain, I was so scared that I almost fell to the ground.
Pei Lingsong had a crooked mouth and slanted eyes. Not only was his face paralyzed, but he was also paralyzed.
"Deping, Deping, go call Xiao'er quickly, I can't hold on any longer." He was panting and speaking incoherently. At this moment, there was only Pei Yuxiao in his mind.
Su Deping: "Your Majesty, I will go and ask for Doctor Zhang first."
Pei Lingsong: "It's too late. Call Xiao'er, go to the East Palace and call my Xiao'er. I have something important to tell you, hurry up, hurry up!"
