Chapter 447, light sentence and heavy punishment
Although the prince was dissatisfied with the words just now, he didn't make the matter clear, and it was also for Yu Shangshu's face. After all, this morning, the emperor just praised the book of the household.
Although Mu Xuanyang is the crown prince, he doesn't care too much about the emperor's face, so he doesn't want to reprimand Concubine Yu in front of the servants in the palace.
But this concubine Yu didn't repent, and dared to argue in front of him. Mu Xuanyang already had a lot of dissatisfaction with her, and when he heard this, how could he bear it. There was a cloud of anger in his chest, and a casual sentence convicted Concubine Yu of disrespect.
"The concubine didn't dare, the concubine only wanted to share the worries of the prince, and she didn't dare to be disrespectful to the princess. As soon as he broke into the palace, it was purely false, and he asked the prince to be the master of the concubines. ”
Know that the sin of disrespect can be big or small. Concubine Yu cried with a sad face, and hearing it couldn't help but make people feel compassion.
But she still overestimated her weight in the prince's heart. Except for when facing Lu Ruxue, Mu Xuanyang's heart was like iron and copper. I never put this woman in my heart, how could I forgive her because she cried for a while.
What's more, this woman dares to be blatant, open her eyes and tell nonsense, Concubine Yu just came, and Bai Guang, the head of the princess's palace, had already sent someone to report to the prince.
So what happened here, how could he hide it from Mu Xuanyang. Seeing that this woman was unrepentant, Mu Xuanyang's face became darker and darker.
"Concubine Yu trespassed into the palace of the crown princess, made disrespectful remarks, regarded the palace rules as nothing, and came to escort her down, insisting on... ”
"Wait!"
Mu Xuanyang was just about to give an order to treat Concubine Yu for a felony of disrespect and punish him with a cane. But when he talked to the key point, he was interrupted by Lu Ruxue from the side.
He frowned, and then looked at his wife. He was angry for his wife, and he didn't know why his wife was obstructive.
"The concubine and the two side concubines have just entered the palace, so it is inevitable that they are not very familiar with the palace rules. Although Concubine Yu was at fault, the prince remembered his first offense, and please take it lightly. ”
Lu Ruxue knelt on the ground, gently pulled the corner of Mu Xuanyang's clothes, and signaled him not to punish him too harshly.
Although Lu Ruxue didn't know about the affairs of the previous dynasty, the book of the household department was highly valued by the emperor. Therefore, even if Mu Xuanyang has been named the crown prince, he still has to give Hubu Shangshu a few thin noodles, and it is not good to punish Concubine Yu heavily.
Seeing his wife seeking satisfaction for his own sake, Mu Xuanyang's heart was blocked, and he was even more angry. But he is not angry with his wife, but angry with himself, in this East Palace, he is powerless to protect his wife well.
"For the sake of the crown princess interceding for you, the cane punishment can be waived. Although Concubine Yu was unwilling, she was finally exempted from the pain of her flesh and skin. But before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard the prince's voice, "But!"
It seems that serious crimes can be avoided, and misdemeanors cannot be escaped, "Since Concubine Yu is not familiar with the palace rules, it is not good to take charge of the East Palace affairs on her behalf." From today onwards, the letter will be returned to the crown princess, and Concubine Chen will assist the crown princess and take charge of all matters in the East Palace. ”
Concubine Yu stayed in her dormitory, copied the palace rules hundreds of times, and memorized them by heart, so as not to break the rules again and lose the face of the prince. At that time, even if the queen mother comes forward to intercede for you, the prince must be severely punished. ”
Concubine Yu dared not to take the crown princess in her eyes, and she was in charge of the affairs of the East Palace for the crown princess. Now the seal has been taken away and punished and grounded. The status is obviously lower than Concubine Chen, who entered the palace later, how can she stand it.
Hiding his face and crying, he kept kowtowing, hoping that the prince could change his mind and fall lightly.
Mu Xuanyang is determined to teach this woman a lesson, and where will he take care of her face. With a wave of his hand, he dragged Concubine Yu down and escorted him back to his dormitory.
Only then did he look at his wife, "No matter what happens outside, as long as I am in this East Palace, I will still be as quiet as snow." ”
Even before his wife had amnesia, Mu Xuanyang understood that what his wife didn't like the most was the intrigue between women.
In the inner courtyard of Taifu's mansion, this kind of thing had never happened, so he didn't want to see his wife, and forced a smile for him.
"I know. Mu Xuanyang has done so much for her, how could she not feel it. I didn't want to admit it before, but now that I have accepted him, I have accepted him as a person.
So the position of the crown princess, although it is not easy to sit, she has no fear or regrets.
The two talked to each other for a while, and then Lu Ruxue called Cai Tao in, "Go and prepare regular clothes for the prince." ”
"Xuanyang changed his clothes first, let's take Ting'er with us, and go to the queen mother to say goodbye!"
Concubine Yu can take charge of the East Palace, although she is under the will of the queen, but it is also the emperor's intention. So now that Lu Ruxue is in charge, she always has to give an explanation to the emperor and queen.
"It's fine. With the help of his wife, he changed into his regular clothes, and the family went together to greet the queen.
The queen is in charge of the inner palace, how can she not know about the East Palace. Although he felt that his son was punished heavily, he also knew that there was a reason for it, and Concubine Yu should also be taught some lessons.
At this time, when I saw my son and daughter-in-law coming to ask for peace, I knew that it must be for Concubine Yu's business. Even if the son still takes into account her mother's feelings, the queen is not embarrassed for her daughter-in-law.
took advantage of the situation to make a decree, and Concubine Chen assisted the crown princess and took charge of the East Palace.
Concubine Chen sat in front of the makeup and stroked her cheeks. She endured Concubine Yu for so long, and bowed down everywhere in front of the crown princess, it seems that the prince still saw it.
Now the prince values her, believes in her, and asks her to help the princess take charge of the East Palace, although she entered the palace late, she finally stepped on Concubine Yu.
As long as she gets another chance, she will inherit the prince Yulu and be pregnant with a son and a half daughter, and when the prince ascends the throne in the future, she will be a concubine at least.
Even when there is an opportunity, pull the crown princess off the horse, then she will be the future queen. When I think of this, I can't help but feel excited, and my eyes are shining with calculation. Even the face in the mirror is a little distorted by overexcitement.
Concubine Yu, who was punished, couldn't get out of the house, but she was unwilling, so she tried her best to deliver the news to her mother's family.
Yu Shangshu was naturally dissatisfied with the prince's heavy punishment of his daughter. But it was not good to accuse him in person, so he took advantage of the next morning, and found an excuse at random, came to the East Palace to ask for a meeting, and mentioned his daughter by the way.
"This is the housework of the prince's east palace, so I don't have to worry about it. ”
"The emperor ascended the throne, and in order to show benevolence and love for the people, he exempted 30% of the taxes in various places. There are repeated wars at the border passes, and now the treasury is empty, Yu Shangshu is a good minister of the court, and he hopes to share more worries for the emperor. ”
The prince can be sealed, and he is indispensable here, and he secretly supports and supports each other. Now that the crown prince has entered the East Palace, but he treats him so coldly, Yu Shangshu naturally dislikes it, and he is secretly annoyed in his heart.
But now, in the eyes of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he has been listed as a party of princes, even if he switches to other princes, he is afraid that he will not be reused.
So I can only try my best to ease the relationship with the prince. Even if you are dissatisfied, you don't dare to say more.
