Chapter 244
Such an answer was reasonable, even if he was angry with the emperor, he had to snort coldly and stop talking. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Even if Zhen Linglong and Qin Meiren are not present, they still can't escape responsibility and have to be punished."
The emperor deliberately paused for a few seconds when he said this, and looked at the appearance of everyone hanging their heads and saying nothing, unspeakably obedient.
"Each person will be demoted by one level, and one year will be deducted, and I will meditate for three months behind closed doors."
For these young concubines, most of the time the emperor is still much soft-hearted, and he feels that there is no need to punish him if he makes a small mistake, but if he commits something bigger, he sees the delicate face, and feels reluctant to punish, which is why he has reached this lawless situation. To put it bluntly, aren't you confused by beauty?
"The emperor and concubines are wronged!"
"The emperor and concubines are also wronged."
Zhen Linglong was the first to react and open her mouth to shout grievances, and Qin Yueren followed, is it easy for them to get to this position now? Zhen Linglong is okay to say, after all, he was a slave before, and then he got the position of this Baolin, so he can be regarded as promoted.
On the other hand, Qin Yueren, except for the position of being named a beauty when she just entered the palace, the rest of her is inactive, she is not favored, so this point is really not to be lost, not to mention that she is about to usher in a new batch of show girls, in this harem, she has always only heard the newcomers laugh and the old people cry, so the position of the beauty of the Qin Yueren must be guaranteed, and must not be lost.
The emperor looked at the two people who reacted quickly at this time, and the anger in his heart swelled up, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at the two people on the ground to accuse.
"Are you wronged? You still have the face to say that you were wronged, so how innocent is the concubine lying in the inner room at this time, such a punishment is a gift to you. ”
At least, compared with Li Concubine, the two of them are lucky, they have not come to this point because of pregnancy, they are not now, and it is also an insinuation for the future, they will learn this lesson and become smarter, as the emperor said, it is indeed a gift to them, a rare gift.
But Zhen Linglong didn't have such an awareness, what she asked for at this time was to keep this share, which was the first thing, who cares about the future?
Coincidentally, Qin Yueren also did this idea, and the two coincided.
"Your Majesty, today's Li Concubine fell off the bridge and we really have nothing to do with it, the slaves in front of Li Concubine were present at that time, and the servants of the Shangfu Bureau were also there, even if they didn't dare to tell the truth, there were many slaves under the bridge, and Liu Meiren was sitting under the bridge, these many people are enough to prove the innocence of the concubine and Qin Meiren."
When Qin Meiren heard this, she looked at the emperor's unchanged face, and immediately opened her mouth as a supplement:
"Back to the emperor, what Zhen Baolin said is true, besides, it is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also present when the accident happened."
As soon as these words came out, the emperor's angry eyes were immediately aroused, Zhen Linglong's heart was happy, and the prince was the emperor's scales! For a long time now, I haven't seen the rumor that the prince who was present at the time appeared, it was not the queen's deliberate maintenance, and the emperor's deliberate ignorance, so I didn't see the prince at this time, so the prince can't be mentioned, and whoever mentions it suffers.
Zhen Linglong secretly scolded Qin Yueren for being stupid, but because of her stupidity, she would bring the two out of this unfavorable situation, Zhen Linglong was so happy to sit back and enjoy it, and let Qin Yueren do the things that offended people.
Zhen Linglong has always said that she is smart, as long as it is beneficial to herself in any event, she will never let go, and those who are useless to herself, or even need to rely on her, are not worthy of deep friendship, she has seen through the things in this palace, and naturally found the most suitable survival rules, so she deliberately avoided the prince and did not mention it, in order to make the emperor less dissatisfied with her, to gain power in this palace, the most important thing to lose is the emperor's favor.
Obviously, the emperor's dissatisfaction all came from Qin Yueren's words, and when Qin Yueren seemed to have regretted the words, he knelt on the ground with his eyebrows lowered, as if he had made a big mistake, waiting for the emperor to punish him.
It's just that I have already met the prince before this, and the whole story is clearly explained, and there is no need to ask, the emperor knows, but they don't know! So when the emperor opened his mouth, he originally thought that he was going to call the prince to testify, but he didn't think it was something else.
"The queen and the concubine get up."
Hearing this, just when the two of them thought that summoning the prince was fruitless, they suddenly heard one of his words:
"The prince has come over a long time ago to take care of this, you, as a concubine, actually listened to the rumors, and followed the rumors without distinguishing between right and wrong, and the harem is with you indiscriminate masters, so you will bring out those equally confused minions, come to people! Don't hurry up and bring me down. ”
Listening to the angry rebuke that seemed to be rolling through the ears of the thunder, not to mention that Zhen Linglong and Qin Yueren were dumbfounded, even Yang Shufei trembled, where have I seen the emperor have been so angry with these delicate little concubines over the years since entering the palace, if you don't really love Concubine Li, it is out of the maintenance of the prince, in short, according to the emperor's pampering of beauties, today is the first time in history.
In the end, the queen looked much calmer, worthy of being a person from the Luo family, this upbringing is much stronger than other families, and she has been with the emperor for 20 years, how can she be regarded as an old husband and wife, she should know the emperor's temperament best. So I saw that after the queen got up, she sat down calmly, and did not forget to reach out and sort out the folds of the red brocade cuffs, only then did she look up and say indifferently:
"The emperor is angry, speaking of today's things they are at fault, after all, they can't blame the two of them, now there are pregnant people in the palace in addition to Li Concubine and Liu Meiren, since even Liu Meiren knows that such a heavy body can't climb the floating incense bridge, and he has also spoken out to dissuade him, but the result, although it was not Li Concubine who insisted on it, it was not Qin Meiren who forcibly took it up,"
If it weren't for the fact that Concubine Li wanted to see the scenery on the bridge, then she also had an ulterior secret, and what was it? It's not necessarily that others don't understand one or two, they just need to be confirmed.
"What do you mean by Queen?"
"What the concubine means, although Zhen Baolin and Qin Meiren have had, they are not the main responsibility, and the concubine fell from the bridge or the palace maid beside her had a problem, when the two of them left, there was only Concubine Li on the bridge and the servants who served her, if she said that something happened, she would definitely not be able to get out of the relationship."
At the same time as the queen spoke, the emperor's original anger dissipated a lot inexplicably, and the original pair of sharp eyes also became calm, and the queen knew that his initial anger had passed, and it was time to sit down and talk. (To be continued.) )
