Chapter 545: The Second Princess Was Beaten
Xiao Jinhan didn't see Emperor Hongcheng, and his mood was a little depressed, thinking about what to do next, while slowly walking back.
When he passed near Fengqi Palace, he suddenly heard a woman's panicked voice begging for mercy: "Ah——, Sister Caiyun, don't fight, she didn't mean to contradict you, please, stop beating her!"
However, the woman named Caiyun was unmoved, and still rebuked arrogantly: "It's just an orchid, what if I take it? It is your blessing to be able to offer something to the queen's mother! She dares to stop me and see if I don't kill her today!"
The woman before hurriedly explained: "Sister Caiyun is angry, I told her to take care of this orchid no matter what, if you want to beat me, hit me!"
"Hmph!" Cai Yun snorted, and his tone was very contemptuous: "The second princess doesn't think that the slave doesn't dare to touch you, right?"
When Xiao Jinhan heard this, he already roughly understood what was going on. - The palace maid of Queen Xi Chuxian fell in love with the orchid of the second princess, and the other party was unwilling to give it to her, so she gave the other party small shoes to wear.
Such things are too common in the harem, and an unfavored prince or princess is likely to not have the servants in the palace of the favored concubine, and it is common to be bullied.
If he is in the girder at the moment, he may still take care of the situation. But this is Xi Chu, and he feels that he really doesn't need to participate in the harem battle.
Thinking of this, he stopped and prepared to move on.
And at this moment, I only heard the woman who was called the second princess speak again.
Her voice trembled because she was afraid, but her tone was firm: "Sister Caiyun is a first-class palace maid by the queen's side, and when my mother was alive, she was only a second-class palace maid by the queen's side, so Sister Caixia is naturally qualified to teach me a lesson."
However, I can give you anything, only the orchid, it is something that my ninth sister gave me, it is the only thought she left me, I must take good care of it, and ask my sister to forgive me!"
"......" Xiao Jinhan heard this, and the footsteps he had just taken paused for.
It sounds like this person is the second princess, so it goes without saying who the "ninth sister" is in the other party's mouth.
If the mother of the second princess is the palace maid next to the first queen, and Xuanyuan Yao also sent orchids to the other party, the relationship between the two must not be bad.
Now, the two masters and servants are willing to be beaten and scolded by the queen's people in order to protect the orchids left by Yao'er, how can he, as Yao'er's husband, sit idly by?
Thinking of this, he stepped back and turned to look at the three Caiyun not far away.
I saw a tall and thin palace maid holding a pot of orchids in her hand, shouting at the two women beside her. The two women, one on their knees, and the other standing beside them, both bowed their heads and did not dare to make a sound.
Judging from the clothes and the conversation just now, it is obvious that the thin and tall palace maid should be Caiyun in the queen's palace. And the remaining two should be the second princess and her palace maid.
At this moment, Caiyun said disdainfully again: "What's wrong with what the Ninth Princess gave you? Not to mention that this is just an orchid she planted, what about the flowers and plants cultivated by her ashes?
However, what she didn't expect was that the second princess hesitated for a moment, and finally seemed to have made up her mind. Cautiously stretched out his hand and asked weakly, "Can you give me back the orchid?"
