"This palace just wants to give Sister Zhen a little more memory, and also give the maids and servants around my sister a little more memory, so that they know how to serve their masters in the future!" After the queen finished speaking, she glanced at the grandmother beside her.

Mama Dong has followed the queen for many years, so she naturally understands what her master means. She strode forward, and without saying a word, she gave the palace maid kneeling on the ground a big mouth, and the force was so great that she beat the little palace maid to the side.

When Concubine Zhen saw that the queen was really going to be ruthless, her heart suddenly became confused. She stretched out her hand and grabbed the queen's skirt and begged: "Niangniang, you have a lot of them, just spare them!" The concubines will be strictly disciplined in the future! ”

The queen leaned down slightly and looked at Concubine Zhen defiantly. "What? Does Concubine Zhen think that this palace doesn't even have the qualifications to discipline a few palace maids for you? ”

As soon as the words fell, the loud slap sounded again, and at the same time, several other palace maids beside the queen also walked to Mama Dong and joined the violent team.

Seeing that several maids had been beaten to the ground, and her cheeks were even more red and swollen, Concubine Zhen's heart was in pain as if it had been slashed by an ice pick. These palace maids are all personal maids she brought from her mother's house, and they have accompanied her for more than ten years, and they have almost become her family. But in the current situation, she has no ability to protect them, and can only watch them suffer because of herself. The more Concubine Zhen thought about it, the more she felt guilty, her heart was down, she suddenly rushed to the side of the palace maid, and forcibly took a solid slap from Mama Dong.

"Mother, what are you doing here?!" Concubine Zhen's actions really frightened the palace maids on the side, and the tears that were originally rolling in her eyes burst out of her eyes in an instant. "The slave maid has rough skin and thick flesh, but it is just a few slaps, and the slave and maid can bear it. Niangniang, your daughter's body, if you are injured at all because of the slave maid, the slave and maid are really to blame! ”

Mama Dong was also frightened by Concubine Zhen's behavior for a moment, and then said pretendly: "Yes, the old slave is just teaching a few slaves on the order of the queen's mother, isn't Concubine Zhen tormenting the old slave like this?" ”

The slap just now was extremely powerful, and a few finger marks immediately appeared on Concubine Zhen's cheeks, she was still kneeling on the ground, a few strands of broken hair scattered on her forehead, and said to the queen with an indifferent face: "As the so-called son is not the fault of the father, they are the palace maids who came out of my palace, and if they make any mistakes, they are also concubines who have no way to teach." Isn't Niang Niang going to teach the slave a lesson? Then the rest of the slaps will be borne by the concubine, who is the master!"

Mama Dong couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and turned her head to look at the queen with a weak heart. saw that the queen did not want to let them go, but gave a look of permission and encouragement. With the support of the queen, Mama simply ruthlessly said with hypocrisy: "Niangniang, don't laugh, let's get out of the way!" If the old slave accidentally injured the mother, how would it be good!"

Saying that, Mama Dong made a gesture to raise her hand again, but she was suddenly pushed away by the eldest prince. "Don't hit my mother! You are not allowed to beat the concubine! Liang Xi angrily pushed Mama Dong, and her little face with a big slap turned red from anger. It's a pity that a five- or six-year-old child has no strength after all, and Mama just raised her hand slightly, and Liang Xi didn't stand firm and was thrown to the ground.

When Concubine Zhen saw her son fall to the ground, she immediately hugged him in her arms in distress and cried: "The queen mother will spare us, we really know that we are wrong, and we will not exceed the rules in the future." ”

"Mama Dong, isn't it possible that forty slaps are going to hit the sun down?" The queen glanced at Concubine Zhen, her expression was as cool as the night breeze spreading between her gorgeous eyebrows, and her tone sounded not light or salty, but there was a sharpness that could not be ignored.

Mama bowed her head to receive the order, and raised her thick palms high again, and she didn't look at whether it was the palace maid or the concubine, and even the young prince was inevitably hit. For a while, the sound of beatings and cries came one after another, and the scene was suddenly chaotic.

Concubine De originally just had the mentality of watching a good show, but when she saw that things had reached this point, she trembled in her heart. So he stepped forward and whispered in the queen's ear: "Niangniang, the eldest prince is a prince after all, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to use lynching, right?" In case it reaches the ears of the Queen Mother or the Emperor, I am afraid..."

Tang Meiren on the side smiled and teased: "I think it's Sister De Concubine's heart scared, right?" Also, my sister has always been timid, and when she sees this kind of scene, she is afraid that she will have nightmares when she goes back! ”

"You! I'm scared, I'm just thinking about the queen!" Concubine De replied unwillingly, "It's like some people gloating and deliberately stirring up trouble." ”

The queen frowned, and was about to interrupt the argument between the two, but heard an angry shout from behind.

"Stop it all for the mourning family!"

Everyone turned their heads in a panic, only to see that the Queen Mother was hurrying over with Cheng Yinu. The sudden appearance of the Queen Mother surprised everyone, and the palace maids who tortured them also stopped their movements, looking at the direction where the Queen Mother was coming in a daze, at a loss.

When the queen and the concubines saw the queen mother's angry appearance, they couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

The Queen Mother looked at this mess, her face was extremely ugly, and her violently undulating chest showed her anger at the moment, and she didn't speak for a long time. Finally, he turned his head to look at Cheng Yinu beside him and said, "You go and see how Concubine Zhen and the eldest prince are doing." ”

Cheng Zijun immediately walked to Concubine Zhen's side and helped her up, and asked, "Niangniang, are you okay?" ”

Concubine Zhen shook her head slightly, hugged her son tighter in her hand, and nervously checked his injuries.

"It's the other way around!" The Queen Mother roared angrily, and the protruding green tendons were faintly visible around her neck, "What are you doing here?" In broad daylight, in the imperial garden, the lynching of the imperial concubine and prince was used?! Queen, Queen, you are really getting more and more capable! ”

The queen knelt on the ground, her face pale, and her eyes were full of panic. "The retainer is wronged! Erchen never had the mind to move the concubine and the eldest prince. Erchen just wanted to discipline a few palace maids who didn't understand the rules for Sister Zhen, but it was Concubine Zhen and the eldest prince who suddenly stopped them, which accidentally injured them. ”

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "Accidental injury?!" When the mourning family came, they saw a few grandmothers and palace maids unscrupulously beating Concubine Zhen and Xi'er who were kneeling on the ground, you look at the palm prints on their faces, is every palm a mistake?! ”

"Erchen really didn't mean to hurt them, he just wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of the lazy wind in the palace, as the so-called no rules are not a circle, maybe the method has been used too much, but Erchen's original intention is for the sake of the overall situation!"

The Queen Mother looked at the queen in surprise, "Think about the big picture?" You're embarrassed to say it! As the mother of a country, you don't have the slightest dignified atmosphere, and you actually lynched yourself in the royal garden like a shrew in the market, you are really too disappointing to the mourning family! Fortunately, this matter was discovered by the mourning family first, if it was seen by the emperor or by other foreign ministers, where would you let the emperor's face go? Where do you put your father Huo Xiang's face?! ”

"Erchen knows his mistakes, and he will abide by his duties in the future, and I hope that my mother will spare Erchen this time!" The queen cried.

"Spread the message of the mourning family, the virtue of the middle palace is wrong, and after thinking about it behind closed doors for half a month, he will be fined for three months. Concubine De and Tang Meiren couldn't dissuade the queen in time, they were also guilty, and they thought about it behind closed doors for half a month and were fined for one month. The Queen Mother said coldly, glanced at Mama Dong, who was originally dancing with her teeth and claws, and said, "As for the palace maid who beats people, unify the twenty boards, and go to the inner guard to receive the punishment in a while!" ”

A farce finally came to an end, and Cheng Zijun helped the angry Queen Mother to leave the imperial garden. When Cheng Zijun turned around, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of two familiar figures standing next to the rockery in the distance, which were Mu Qing and Zhu Yu. Mu Qing looked in their direction with a calm expression, obviously standing there for a long time.
