Chapter 134 Punishment under Excuse
It was out of the inner bed to find out, and when I found the place where I was exclaiming, I saw a few palace people there, and I didn't know what was going on? Because several palace people were standing there, no one said anything, but people couldn't understand it, and they also walked over and then Concubine Xian asked.
"What's wrong?"
The palace people in the greenhouse hall exclaimed that it was a violation of the palace rules, and Concubine Houxian's angry question was a lot stronger, and after listening to Concubine Xian's questioning, the palace people who were standing there were even more shocked, and they were busy turning around and kneeling down in a panic, and the palace people were so shocked that they didn't dare to speak. It was after the palace people were all kneeling down that Qin Shujiu found that the curtain and Chu Meng were also among them, and he was already confused in his heart, and then asked.
"What's going on?"
Several palace people gathered here, and the place where they had just stiffened and looked at was scattered with something, a white porcelain bowl that had been broken, and the broken bowl was scattered red and green scattered all over the place, because it was a little far away, so I couldn't see what it was scattered all over the place.
However, it seems that it is not a rare thing, but because I think it is a rare thing, I am puzzled by their horror, and I also inquired about the curtain at the moment. After Qin Shujiu inquired, the curtain answered: "Back to Jieyu, the maid and Chu Meng left the palace with the palace people on Niangniang's side to go to the small kitchen to watch tea for Jieyu, but they accidentally touched the two palace people in Niangniang's palace when they were traveling, and they were so shocked that the things they were serving fell to the ground. ”
After finishing the way, he stopped talking, but Qin Shujiu also understood what the broken thing on the ground was, but he was also temporarily relieved, and then bowed to Concubine Hou Xian, Qin Shujiu said: "It is the palace people in the palace of the concubine who are reckless, and the people in the palace of the concubine are shocked, and the concubine is not here to worship." This week also apologized, but after bowing like this, I didn't see Concubine Hou Xian's face ease, but continued to calm her face. It was Concubine Hou Xian's face that made Su Die feel a little strange, and she immediately asked, "What is that fallen thing?" ”
Because it was too small and scattered in the mud, it was not clear to see, because Su Die asked the palace people to reply.
"Hui Chong Yuan. but mung beans and red beans. ”
Just looking at the stiff faces of the palace people, she thought that this fallen thing was such a precious thing, but Su Die was a little worried, but when she heard that it was just ordinary things such as mung beans and red beans, she breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "It's just mung beans and red beans." It's not a big deal, why is it so stiff, get up. ”
Mung beans and red beans are really ordinary crops, even if they are accidentally broken, they don't matter, so Su Die smiled and said. But after these words fell, Concubine Hou smiled coldly and said, "This palace has not spoken yet." Sister Su has made the decision for the palace? ”
The sudden cold snort also made Su Die relax, and he remembered that he was already overly busy and owed himself to ask for sin. The sin is invited, Concubine Hou Xian also had no intention of blaming her, and she also glanced at the palace people who were kneeling, Concubine Hou Xian said.
"If you can't do anything well, pull down the cane and die." When these words fell, the palace people kowtowed and begged for mercy, and even begged Concubine Hou Xian for mercy, and Concubine Hou Xian's punishment was far from expected, Qin Shujiu and Su Die also didn't expect that some ordinary things would make Concubine Hou Xian give such a heavy punishment. At that moment, Su Die asked: "Niangniang, it's just some red beans and mung beans, even if it hits the fate of the Shang Food Bureau and sends it, for this little thing, you have to kill the palace people, and the punishment is too great." ”
Su Die couldn't look down on such a sloppy human life, and begged for mercy for the palace people at the moment, but this could not make Concubine Hou Xian accept it, but looked at Su Die, Concubine Hou Xian looked at it carefully and then said: "A trivial matter? Sister Su said wildly, these red beans and mung beans are trivial things? This is what the palace is destined to be prepared by the Food Bureau. It is the ingredients prepared to make red mung bean soup for the queen mother. Now it's to let these ignorant palace people fall to the ground? If this reaches the ears of the queen mother, how can the palace be called, the bowl is broken, the bowl is broken, this is a bad omen, the palace just ordered them to be killed, it is already a grace, and Sister Cheng Su feels that they have committed such a serious crime, and the palace should not be punished. ”
After drinking the words, Su Die didn't know how to reply. If it's just an ordinary crop, it doesn't matter, but what is falling now is the ingredients that Concubine Hou Xian needed to cook red mung bean soup for the Queen Mother. It is important to keep the things under the Tai Reserve, especially the bowl that was held is also broken, and this bowl of broken sound seems to be broken late, which is not a good sign. If this matter spreads, it will cause anger in the Immortal Residence Palace. The consequences are even more difficult to receive.
After hearing the words, she looked at the look on Concubine Hou Xian's face at this time, and guessed what she meant, but now that the matter has been committed, there is no countermeasure, but seeing Su Die's face speechless, Concubine Hou Xian smiled and said: "The palace people who commit crimes in this palace, this palace should be the master, but the people around the two sisters are not good in the palace together, come here." After that, he called someone, and then said: "Put these two palace people into the court prison and discipline them well." ”
What kind of place is it in Yeting Prison, if Concubine Hou Xian ordered someone to escort Curtains and Chu Meng in, these two people would not want to come back safely, when they heard Concubine Hou Xian's words, Qin Shujiu was busy asking for mercy and said: "Concubine Xian Niangniang is gracious, the palace people in the palace of the concubines are not sensible, and the concubines will be brought back for a good restraint, and this matter is to take the servants in the palace of the concubines into the court prison." ”
In a hurry, he opened his mouth, and when the words fell, he stopped those attendants, and did not allow them to move the curtain.
Qin Shujiu opened his mouth to plead, and Su Die also immediately said: "Concubine Xian Niangniang's matter is not careful, so that she doesn't need to enter the prison staff to kill the palace people." "It is also to protect Chu Meng out of voice, Chu Meng is her personal palace person, she can't see Chu Meng being wronged. Both of them pleaded for the palace people, but this request could not be begged, and immediately saw that Concubine Hou Xian sank her face and suppressed her voice and smiled, and then looked at Su Die, Concubine Hou Xian said.
"Don't you care about this? So what's the matter in Sister Su's eyes? This is the property of the palace for the mother's reserve, even if this matter is not a matter of importance in the eyes of Sister Su? If Sister Su feels that it doesn't matter, she wants the queen mother to give it to the palace, and the queen mother asserts that it doesn't matter? Mo said that the head of this palace had committed such a thing, and it was already the palace that had opened the grace, even if it was not the queen mother who committed the crime, it was the people in the palace who had the final say, and it was not Sister Su's turn to intercede for them. The palace also saw that these two palace maids were people from the palace of the two sisters, so they ordered someone to be sent to the court prison and had been punished, so as not to let the two sisters act ruthlessly, but it broke the palace rules? How? Could it be that Sister Su thinks that your palace maid in the Ruyi Palace can't be disposed of in this palace? ”
The more he spoke, the more he spoke, but the palace maid pointed directly at Su Die, seeing that Concubine Hou Xian was about to point the finger at them, Qin Shujiu knelt down and bowed, and then said pleadingly: "Sister Su didn't mean that. The mother misunderstood. ”
After speaking, Concubine Hou Xian smiled: "That's not what you mean? How did this palace think that she meant this. When she saw it at a glance, Concubine Hou Xian also made it clear that she wanted to make things difficult by taking advantage of this matter, and her meaning was also clear, and Su Die, who found out her original intention, also lost her temper. Originally, he wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but because Qin Shujiu was worried that this matter would be more troublesome than Curtains and Chu Meng, he coughed dryly, and then rushed at Su Die and glanced at her, signaling that she should not exceed her duty.
It was also Qin Shujiu who made his eyes look at Su Die, and only then did he suppress the fire that came out, and asked Su Die to take away his temper, and Qin Shujiu said: "There are a lot of mothers, and Sister Su has always been casual and indiscriminate. The words are wrong, but this heart still respects the mother. ”
After saying that, Fang Wen Hou Xian replied: "My sister is sensible, but this Sister Su's temperament is really difficult to change, look at how long this has been in the palace, she is not a newcomer, but her temperament can't be changed." Fang Cai also said that the matter of the queen mother is not a big deal, this is fortunately said here in the palace, if it is said outside and people with a heart listen to it, it will be bad if it reaches the ears of the queen mother. ”
It would be bad if such words were said anywhere, Concubine Hou Xian's words were just another reminder, and they could only kneel down and ask for guilt like this. The grace of the two of them is increasing day by day, and the jealousy in Concubine Hou Xian's heart is also increasing day by day. I have been thinking about ways to suppress my arrogance for a long time, but I can't find a good time, but now that I have this matter, I won't take it lightly.
They are now receiving Liqing's favor, even if this matter is really up, it does not necessarily mean that Liqing will be angry, but it may ask Liqing to suppress this matter, so that he can't blame them as he wishes. Since the two of them can't be punished now, then Concubine Xian will attack the palace people on her side.
Breaking the things that Concubine Xian was in reserve for the queen mother is to collide with the queen mother, even if this alone kills the two of them, with this matter in her hands, Concubine Xian also intends to take the opportunity to suppress their arrogance. It ordered the chamberlain to drag down all the palace maids. When he looked at the waiter and forced the curtain, Qin Shujiu also felt pain in his heart, and he said it at the moment.
"Niangniang, this palace maid is also a person in the palace of the concubine. Now that she has committed a crime, it is also because the concubine is not strict in discipline, and she begs the mother to spare her in the face of the concubine, and the concubine is willing to be punished for her. It was after hearing Qin Shujiu's words that Concubine Hou Xian raised her hand and signaled the waiter to stop for the time being.
Looking at Qin Shujiu who was kneeling in front of her, and then looking up at the sky, Concubine Hou Xian first sighed lightly, "This autumn day is also sweltering", and then looked at Qin Shujiu, and then said: "My sister is now the person on the tip of your majesty's heart, how dare this palace punish my sister." If this is called Majesty, I really don't know how it hurts. ”
Qin Shujiu replied: "The palace maid's lax discipline is already the fault of the concubines, and the punishment of the mother is also for the whole palace rules and the queen's mother's worries, even if His Majesty knows it, he will abide by the palace rules and will definitely not blame." ”
After saying that, Concubine Hou Xian smiled lightly, her eyebrows and eyes were already more flattering, and she looked at the kneeling palace maid with the wrong eye, and then looked at Qin Shujiu, Concubine Hou Xian said: "Since my sister begged like this, this palace is not the kind of unreasonable person, since this is the case, it is exempt from the responsibility of these palace maids." ”
If one of them spared several lives, the palace maids were busy kneeling down to thank them, that is, they saluted and thanked Concubine Hou Xian, Qin Shujiu and Su Die were about to get up, how could they think that Qin Shujiu's body had just moved but heard Concubine Hou Xian say: "The palace just said that the palace maids were exempted from responsibility, and my sister is not exempt from the palace." These words directly prevented Qin Shujiu from getting up, when his body stiffened slightly and then knelt down again, Qin Shujiu said: "The concubine has been punished for it." ”
"It's rare for my sister to be so sensible, since my sister said that this palace maid is my sister's fault, then this palace will punish my sister ......" The words were a pause, and then looked at Qin Shujiu, and after laughing, Concubine Hou Xian continued: "This bean is reserved for the mother, and now it is scattered although it can no longer be used, but it can't be just called scattered and stained with mud, since my sister has to take responsibility for the palace maid, then pick up the beans in this place and subdivide them carefully." ”
The words were said with a smile, but the faces of the two changed suddenly, and then Su Die opened her mouth to answer: "Concubine Xian, although it is autumn now, but the sun in this autumn is also spicy, let the wine sift these beans if the heat is bad, how can it be good?" It was bluntly said that Concubine Hou Xian's punishment was slightly heavier, Su Die should be blunt, but this blunt statement made Concubine Hou Xian's laughter turn cold, and she moved her gaze to Su Die, Concubine Hou Xian said.
"Autumn and the sun? Even if my sister is responsible, she deserves to be punished, but she is sifting and picking up these beans in the sun? Isn't it just embarrassing? This palace punishment is not only to punish my sister, but also to ask my sister to do her filial piety for the queen mother? Could it be that Sister Su still thinks it's heavy? If Sister Su feels that the palace is not that tough person, it is not difficult for Sister Su to avoid the heat of her delicate body, and she will still be punished according to Fang Cai. Someone ...... coming."
Since he was worried about Qin Shujiu's body, then this responsibility still had to be borne by the palace maids, and at that moment, Concubine Hou Xian ordered the attendants to take people down. It was also after these words that Qin Shujiu hurriedly responded: "What Niangniang taught should be received, and Niangniang is right, this is also a piece of filial piety of the concubine." After that, he immediately looked at Su Die, shook his head and signaled that she was not making a sound, Qin Shujiu got up and then knelt down and began to sift the scattered beans.
It was to see Qin Shujiu kneeling under the sun and Hou Xian Concubine hummed softly with satisfaction, and then ordered the palace people softly, took the order and retreated, and when the palace people returned, there were two white porcelain jade bowls and a pair of silver chopsticks on the tray in their hands. Serving the tray and then serving it to Qin Shujiu, Concubine Hou Xian smiled: "There are a lot of sand and stones in the soil, my sister's green hands can't be hurt, come, use the silver chopsticks to sift and pick." After saying that, he smiled and looked at it, but it was deliberately so.
The beans are sleek, if you use silver chopsticks to choose carelessly, they will slip off, if you use your hands to get it quickly, Concubine Hou Xian's intention is clearly difficult. Her difficult mind was also clear, Su Die was angry, but she asked Qin Shujiu to stop, that is, she thanked Concubine Hou Xian for her kindness, and then took the silver chopsticks, holding the silver chopsticks, Qin Shujiu knelt down under the sun, and began to sift the red mung beans scattered in the soil and sand.
