Chapter 573: No Way to Discipline
Qing Shao didn't say too much, she just told Concubine Zhen that the reason why the two palace maids were punished was entirely because the two little palace maids chewed their tongues behind their backs, and they also criticized the child in her womb.
Concubine Zhen only felt that some cold sweat was about to come down when she heard it, she didn't expect that it would be because of such a reason, indeed, criticizing the prince is a big crime, especially when she was heard by the main master, let alone slapping so much, even if she was killed with a cane, no one could say that the concubine was not half a sentence.
"Concubine...... I really don't know...... The concubine has no way to discipline her, and then she will be severely punished, please let the concubine be relieved. Concubine Zhen hurriedly said.
This matter is really not small, and she is too impulsive, she is really worried that the concubine will count this matter on her head, she never knows about it.
Qing Shao glanced at Concubine Zhen's face, her face was slightly pale, and her eyes looked a little worried, but she didn't see any weakness in it.
It seems that this matter has little to do with Concubine Zhen.
"Concubine Zhen is also serious, although you are a person in your palace, you may not be able to take care of it, and this palace will not blame you." Qing Shao said, "But Concubine Zhen, you should also discipline the people in your palace, otherwise if there is such a thing again, why will you be the last to know......
Qing Shao's later words came to an abrupt end here, but Concubine Zhen already understood.
"Don't worry, the concubine will definitely restrain the people in the concubine's palace after that!" Concubine Zhen hurriedly answered.
Qing Shao nodded, and didn't say anything more.
After that, Concubine Zhen left Yuanshao Palace and returned to her Shuhe Palace, but her face was very ugly.
"The master is back, how is it?" Donglian saw Concubine Zhen come back with an ugly face, and hurriedly asked carefully.
Concubine Zhen drank a bowl of tea angrily, and then her face calmed down a little, and she said, "I'm afraid this palace was framed by others for nothing this time!" ”
Hearing Concubine Zhen's words, Dong Lian immediately felt very surprised, obviously she went to Yuanshao Palace to find that noble concubine Niang Xingshi to ask for guilt, why did she say such a thing now, this change is inevitably a little too big.
Later, Dong Lian heard the cause of the incident from Concubine Zhen's mouth, and sighed in her heart.
It's no wonder that he dared to criticize the prince in the belly of the concubine, and also caused the concubine to be angry, which is already a great sin. Moreover, if something really happens to the concubine, I am afraid that there will be more than these two little palace maids, and even Concubine Zhen may not be able to escape her guilt.
So it's really tricky.
"When those two palace maids are well recuperate, the palace will interrogate them as soon as possible to see where they heard such words!" Concubine Zhen's eyes were also a little sharp at the moment.
She must know what the hell is going on!
After that, Concubine Zhen thought about it and stood up again.
"Master?" Donglian watched Concubine Zhen's movements suspiciously.
"This palace must go and ask His Majesty for guilt." Concubine Zhen spoke.
Her concubine position is already unstable, if there is any misunderstanding among the emperor because of this matter, I am afraid that her status will plummet.
So she had to plead guilty first.
Thinking like this, Concubine Zhen first asked people to inquire about Qi Yuan's whereabouts at this moment, and learned that Qi Yuan was in the imperial study at the moment, so she hurriedly went there.
Qi Yuan just instructed the secret guard to investigate this rumor, he must know whether this matter is just the two little palace maids who are rumoring it, or someone is manipulating it behind the scenes, the former is naturally the best, but if the latter is the latter, he can't blame him for being ruthless.
Just finished ordering this matter, although there are still some stacks of twists and turns that have not been read, but Qi Yuan can't make up his mind, he has to go back to Yuanshao Palace to accompany Qing Shao, Qing Shao's previous fetal image was very unstable, and now he has encountered this matter again, which really worries him.
was about to go to Yuanshao Palace, but heard Chang De tell him that Concubine Zhen was coming.
"Let her in." Qi Yuan said that Concubine Zhen must have come here because of the two palace maids, after all, those two palace maids were from her palace.
After that, Concubine Zhen came in, and after saluting, she kept kneeling on the ground.
"The concubines have no way to discipline the palace people, which causes the two palace maids to speak disrespectfully, and the concubines are deeply frightened! I beg your majesty to repudiate you! ”
As she spoke, Concubine Zhen kowtowed.
Looking at Concubine Zhen kneeling below, Qi Yuan's mood was also very complicated.
In fact, Concubine Zhen is really a concubine who has no sense of existence in Qi Yuan's harem, but because of her deep qualifications after all, he thought of Concubine Zhen in the matter of the eldest prince last time, but later because of Song Yuanyu, the eldest prince was not able to give it to Concubine Zhen to raise.
This is not Concubine Zhen's fault, so since Qi Yuan had promised to promote her before, it was naturally difficult to take back her fate, so Concubine Zhen became Concubine Zhen.
But I didn't expect this to happen this time, but even if Qi Yuan didn't like Concubine Zhen, like Qi Qingshao, he wouldn't count this matter on her head.
Because doing so doesn't do Concubine Zhen herself any good.
It's just that the people behind the scenes may still be targeting Concubine Zhen......
"Get up." Qi Yuan opened his mouth and said, "You are only charged with a crime of disciplining in this matter, and it is nothing." ”
"The concubine is ashamed, and beg Your Majesty to condemn her." Although Concubine Zhen stood up, she still spoke in shame.
Qi Yuan looked at Concubine Zhen's appearance and thought for a moment, and then said, "Since this is the case, I will punish you with three months' salary as punishment." ”
Hearing Qi Yuan's words, Concubine Zhen finally breathed a sigh of relief, to say that the punishment is the lightest punishment in the harem, especially for the concubines in high positions, it is even more meaningless, and a few households can be ignored.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Zhen was completely relieved when she heard this punishment, so the emperor really didn't take his anger on her.
That's it.
Concubine Zhen didn't dare to bother more, knowing that the emperor was now full of noble concubines, and if they were in a hurry, it would only provoke his disgust in vain, so she didn't say anything, and then withdrew after getting Qi Yuan's words.
"Niangniang, what did Your Majesty punish?" Donglian, who was waiting outside, asked in a low voice.
"But the fine is three months, it's okay." Concubine Zhen said.
Donglian also breathed a sigh of relief, so there was really no hindrance.
Concubine Zhen took people back to her palace, but when she was about to reach her palace gate, she saw another person.
"It turned out to be Yu Zhaoyi." Concubine Zhen said, "I haven't seen you in a few days. ”
The woman opposite smiled lightly and saluted slightly: "The concubines have been painting and practicing calligraphy in the palace recently, and they rarely go out of the palace, but I didn't expect to meet Concubine Zhen's sister when she came out for a walk." ”
