Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Frightened Bird

Yuan Diyi was pitiful, and the tears fell one by one like broken threads, "The so-called husband is innocent and guilty, and Diyi also knows that he is from a low background, and he is not worthy of being in and out of the palace to be loved by the emperor and the queen mother." Concubine Qiong has just made it clear that her brother and two nephews have laid down the country for the emperor, even if I really have three strengths and two shortcomings today, the emperor will not bear to reprimand. It's also Emperor Yi's hard life, who made me not have a brother like General Song to rely on. โ€

This day is the emperor's heaven, and the earth is also the emperor's land. Concubine Qiong opened her mouth and shut up her brother's work in Sheji, for fear that people would not know that she was the sister of the hussar general.

Yuan Diyi's eyes were reluctant to blink, admiring the wolf bรจi of Concubine Qiong at this time, the last moment she was still dancing with her teeth and claws, and the next moment she was like a loser's dog.

Song Chao scolded his sister, "How can you say such rebellious words, it is a duty for soldiers to fight for the emperor, and it is a matter of course." What do you take for granted, you are blaspheming the soldiers who shed their blood on the battlefield. โ€

Concubine Qiong cried a handful of snot and tears, "Why doesn't the emperor believe in the concubine, this woman is clearly the Daji of the King of Shang, she is a fox spirit who came to confuse the emperor." โ€

Feng Michu reminded, "Concubine Qiong, please be cautious, King Shang is the king of the dead country." โ€

Concubine Qiong realized that she had lost her words, and what she said just now was tantamount to comparing the emperor to the cruel and lustful king of King Xuan. Yuan Diyi couldn't help but laugh.

Song Chao's sharp eyes glanced at Yuan Diyi, and said righteously to Concubine Qiong, "Since you have done something wrong, you should confess your mistake to the emperor." If you were in the barracks, I would have dragged you out of the military court a long time ago. Song Chao knelt down and pleaded guilty, "Your Majesty, the minister did not discipline her sister well, so that she did many wrong things in the palace. But Weichen only has one sister, fortunately there was no big mistake, Mrs. Yuan was unharmed, can the emperor be light. โ€

"Is there anything wrong with Madame Yuan?" the Emperor said with concern.

Song Chao just won the battle, the emperor must want to make a big thing small, otherwise he is afraid of provoking the dissatisfaction of the Song family and the soldiers under Song Chao, not to mention that she didn't think about how to treat Qiong Guifei this time, as she said, the coming day is long, she will be unhappy in the future, and she will find Qiong Guifei to "explain".

After playing with this just now, her mood was really much more relaxed. As long as she thought of Qiong Guifei's appearance of struggling to death in the water just now, it was enough for her to reminisce for several days.

Yuan Diyi said, "No, I'm just a little frightened." โ€

Song Chao said, "I heard that pearls can soothe the nerves, and the misfortune caused by the sister of the house caused the lady to encounter this unwarranted disaster, I asked people to send the pearls to the lady's house, just as a small compensation for the lady." โ€

Concubine Qiong was glaring at her, but when she met her eyes with Yuan Diyi, she moved her eyes away like a frightened bird. She shouted on her lips, but she remembered in her heart that just now under the pool, Yuan Diyi held her hands and feet, and water poured into her nose and mouth, and Yuan Diyi kept laughing.

Yuan Diyi was moved, "Seeing General Song like this, I think of several brothers who are far away in Nanban, and they also care for me like this, Concubine Qiong is really a blessing." That's it, Your Majesty, I won't pursue this matter. โ€

The Queen Mother said, "Even if Mrs. Yuan is generous and does not pursue it, after all, she has done something wrong, if she does not punish anything, it may be difficult to convince the public, how to control the rest of the harem in the future"

The Emperor asked, "What does the Queen Mother think?"

The Queen Mother thought for a while and said, "The master made a mistake, and the slaves did not persuade but helped the perpetrators, I had already punished them lightly last time, but I still didn't know how to repent." The two palace maids around Concubine Qiong dragged down and died, and the others were each fined seventy boards. As for Concubine Qiong, she was confined to the palace for 100 days. โ€

For Concubine Qiong, this is a light punishment, it is completely for the sake of Song Chao, but she took pity on the servants around Concubine Qiong and made an example of killing chickens and monkeys.

The queen took Yuan Diyi back to her bedroom to change clothes, and as soon as the front foot arrived, the back foot emperor asked people to send a bowl of ginger soup, which could be drunk to dispel the cold. The queen said, "This palace has been in the palace for so many years, and I have never seen the emperor so good to that concubine." โ€

Yuan Diyi said with a smile, "The emperor is not the love between men and women that the queen thinks about me. There is a Buddhist scripture and a string of Buddhist beads on the bed of the sour branch wood Arhat in the hall, "It turns out that the queen is a person who believes in Buddhism, no wonder there is a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere." โ€

The queen said, "The queen mother likes Buddhism, and this palace is learned from the queen mother." Reading the last paragraph every day, I feel that the distractions in my heart have been eliminated. โ€

"Buddhist scriptures are great wisdom, and those who can read and understand them must also be people with great wisdom. "The Buddha in her heart is different from the Buddha in her mouth, and it is the first time she has seen a person who believes in Buddhism so categorically ask for the life of others.

The queen asked, "Doesn't Madame believe in Buddhism?"

"The Southern Barbarians have their own customs and beliefs, and do not believe in Buddhism. โ€

The queen said, "Reciting Buddhist scriptures has many benefits, it can teach people to be calm, make people not impatient, not greedy, and not quarrelsome, and can also eliminate evil obstacles." โ€

"Does the queen have evil obstacles to get rid of?" she was originally just a joke, but she didn't expect to see that the queen was not very comfortable and knocked over the tea on the table.

The queen took out a handkerchief and wiped it, "This palace is really clumsy, madam, please take care of yourself." After speaking, the palace maid helped him to change his clothes.

Yuan Diyi thought that there was really an interesting place in the palace, and he felt that everyone had secrets, so it seemed that Concubine Qiong was the most frank one.

In order to compensate for her "grievances", the Queen Mother asked Su Jin to personally send a pair of fluorescent glass cups to the Queen Mother to give her, which was a congratulatory gift sent by the Leopard Guogong on the Queen Mother's fiftieth birthday.

But Yuan Diyi didn't like it very much, and always felt that this thing was not as pleasing to the eye as the vase that was broken by Yuan Musheng before. Feng Michu's carriage stopped outside the palace gate, and when she came out, the little maid in Fengfu reminded her, Feng Michu raised the curtain and said politely, "Madame was frightened, if you don't dislike it, I'll send Madame back." โ€

Everyone thinks that Feng Michu is a gentle gentleman, and the so-called gentleman is a person who behaves well enough to be a model and will never defile the way of Confucius and Mencius.

Yuan Diyi waved his hand to let the palanquin man of the Yuan Mansion go back, and took the box containing the cup from the little eunuch's hand, and the righteous gentleman wanted to send a weak woman who had just been frightened too much back to the house, which could be regarded as helping the weak.

Yuan Diyi threw the box on the carriage, Feng Michu instructed the little servant to go to the Yuan Mansion first, and then said earnestly, "Song Chao is not easy to mess with, Miss should pay attention to it for a while." He didn't know how many enemy generals he had killed on the battlefield, and Miss bullied Concubine Qiong like this today, I am afraid that he may not give up. โ€
