Chapter 135: The arrogant Concubine Rou turns into an ugly monster
"I am not someone you can easily mess with. Today, I am just giving Concubine Rou a little sweetness. If she still likes to target me in the future, I will use my ultimate move on her."
Feng Wuhen's eyes twitched when he heard her words, and his eyes were mixed with a hint of helplessness and doting.
"You can have fun, but don't let her catch you. This Concubine Rou may look big-breasted and brainless on the surface, but she is actually very vicious in secret."
"And King Kang, don't be fooled by his gentle and polite manners, smiling at everyone all day long, but he is not as simple as you think. He is a very cunning and sinister person. You should stay away from him."
Because he saw Prince Kang looking at Jiang Yimo with interest in his eyes in Chonghua Palace during the day, so he specifically mentioned Prince Kang to Jiang Yimo, with the purpose of making her more wary of Prince Kang.
"I know. I don't want to have any relationship with anyone in your royal family except you and Empress Xian."
Jiang Yimo whispered what was in her heart.
After hearing her words, Feng Wuhen felt happy immediately.
However, Concubine Rou in the house was suffering. The more she scratched, the more itchy her body became. Her face was itchy, her hands were itchy, her feet were itchy... In short, her whole body was itchy and uncomfortable, so she had no choice but to loudly call for the palace maid who was guarding the door.
When the palace maids heard Concubine Rou calling, several of them rushed in hurriedly. When they saw Concubine Rou's face, they were shocked on the spot.
"My lady, why are your face, your hands, and your shoulders so red and swollen?"
"What, my face is getting red and swollen too?"
Her face was so itchy just now, but she tried her best to restrain herself from scratching it, thinking of saving some face. Unexpectedly, even if she didn't scratch it, her face still became red and swollen.
"what!!!!!"
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and help me get out of the bath."
After she yelled like that, several palace maids came to their senses. Two of them took towels and two took bath clothes, and they took Concubine Rou out of the bath basin.
Several palace maids felt their scalps tingling when they saw the redness and swelling all over Concubine Rou's body, but they didn't dare to say anything more.
However, unfortunately, a sharp duck voice came from outside the door: "The emperor has arrived!"
This shout almost frightened Concubine Rou so much that she stumbled and fell.
Why is the emperor here again? Didn't he just leave?
When she thought of her swollen face and body, how could she face anyone, especially since the person coming was the emperor.
Concubine Rou thought to herself: It's over! It's over! It's really over now!
If the emperor saw me in this ugly state, would he be traumatized by me every time he saw me in the future?
"Hurry up and get me some rouge and powder so I can put on my makeup. You must not let the emperor see me in this ugly state."
As Concubine Rou spoke, she urged the palace maid to get something, but it was too late. The Emperor had already walked into Concubine Rou's bedroom.
Concubine Rou had no choice but to walk out of the gauze tent and kneel down to pay homage to the emperor.
But when the emperor saw Concubine Rou walking towards him, he was immediately frightened by her terrifying face.
He saw Concubine Rou with a red and swollen face covered with white blisters, standing in front of him and kneeling down to pay homage to him. Just one look at this face was enough to make him feel cold for a long time.
"Rou Fei, what's wrong with your face?"
"Your Majesty, I don't know what happened. I became like this right after taking a bath. My body is itchy."
"Did someone put drugs in the soup?" asked the emperor.
As soon as the words fell, the four maids beside Concubine Rou immediately knelt down to prove their innocence, "Your Majesty, we did not put drugs in Concubine Rou's soup."
The emperor ignored the words of the four palace maids and turned to his close eunuch, Eunuch Li, and said sternly, "Little Li, go and call Zhang Yuanpan to check Concubine Rou's soup."
Although Xiao Lizi is a eunuch in his early twenties, his master was the previous chief eunuch in the palace, who died of illness a few years ago. So the emperor promoted Xiao Lizi, the eunuch chief's apprentice, to the chief eunuch and kept him by his side to serve him.
Mainly because he was smart and had a good eye, and he had always followed his master to serve the emperor, so the emperor chose him to be the chief eunuch.
After receiving the order, Little Li Zi flicked the whisk in his hand, bowed respectfully to the emperor, and left.
Not long after, a middle-aged man followed Xiao Lizi. This man was the Zhang Yuanpan whom Jiang Yimo had met during the day.
Zhang Yuanpan walked into Concubine Rou's bedroom. At this time, Concubine Rou and the emperor had already sat on the soft couch in the outer hall, but they were sitting separately and very far apart, which looked awkward no matter how you looked at them.
Moreover, Concubine Rou seemed to be trying hard to endure the itch on her face. She sat on the couch, her body moving all the time, but she did not dare to scratch herself in front of the emperor.
However, at this moment on the roof, Feng Wuhen also quietly moved to another seat with Jiang Yimo and continued to watch the show.
After Zhang Yuanpan came in, he immediately saluted the emperor and Concubine Rou.
The Emperor asked him to stand up and examine Concubine Rou, and only then did he dare to look up at her. This look also frightened Zhang Yuanpan.
Concubine Rou looked at Zhang Yuanpan and was very annoyed when she saw his reaction.
The Emperor's reaction when he saw her just now was the same as Zhang Yuanpan's.
Is her face really scary now?
Immediately, Concubine Rou ordered, "Zhang Yuanpan, go check whether the soup I used tonight was drugged?"
Zhang Yuanpan quickly withdrew his gaze from Concubine Rou, then he responded respectfully and followed the two palace maids into Concubine Rou's bathroom.
Not long after, Zhang Yuanpan came out of the bathroom and immediately reported to the emperor and Concubine Rou, "Your Majesty, Concubine Rou, there is no problem with the basin of soup."
When Concubine Rou heard this, she became anxious. If there was nothing wrong with the soup, then how did she get the itch?
"But I started to itch after I took a dip in that basin of water. How could that water be okay? Judge Zhang, come here and take my pulse carefully."
At the same time, the emperor, who was sitting on the other side of the couch, was also confused.
"President Zhang, if Tangshui didn't ask her, then you should help Concubine Rou to take a closer look at where Concubine Rou's redness and swelling came from."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
After Zhang Yuanpan responded, he walked to Concubine Rou and sat down. He felt her pulse first, then looked at her face carefully and asked in a low voice, "Does your majesty have any history of allergies to anything?"
Concubine Rou answered truthfully: "I have not yet encountered anything that I am allergic to."
"This is strange. The redness and swelling on the queen's body should be caused by allergies." Zhang Yuanpan muttered softly.
