Chapter 222: Punishment
Ye Cheng knew that she looked very wolf now. But her wolf bรจi was created by her man, her monarch. She came to bed yesterday and got a glimpse of the emperor's secret, only to feel that she was closer to the emperor again. The emperor is not a fierce god, and when he sees her current injury, he will inevitably feel distressed and guilty. And getting the emperor's distress is enough to make her stable and favored in the harem.
It was she who looked at the emperor with teary eyes, looking like an abandoned kitten and puppy, and she hoped to be caressed by her master.
Jiang Yu saw that Ye Cheng was so eager to invite pets, and helplessly supported her forehead.
There's nothing she can do about it.
Ye Cheng underestimated the man who was the emperor. Is she the same as an ordinary man when she is an emperor? A man who feels guilty when he beats his wife must at least have a normal mind, but the little emperor is a person who has distorted his mind in the long-term depression, and he is still a proud person.
An extremely gentle smile suddenly appeared on the face of the little emperor Rong Chang.
"Today is I'm sorry for Ye Jieyu, you can go."
"The concubines don't dare, as long as the emperor has a concubine in his heart." Ye Cheng burst into tears, and said shyly and gently.
The little emperor nodded and said, "I will naturally remember you." There you go. โ
"Yes, the concubine retired." Ye Cheng saluted and gave a charming smile. It's just that she really can't see charm on her face now.
Turning around, she raised her chin too high, glanced at Jiang Yan with contempt, and walked out of the hall proudly.
She finally showed her status in front of Jiang Wei, and she didn't always feel that she was stepping on her!
The little emperor looked at the scene at the same time.
Jing Tong immediately understood and followed Ye Cheng, "The slave sent Ye Jieyu." โ
Ye Cheng looked down on eunuchs very much. Even though Jing Tong is a celebrity around the little emperor. and also gave birth to a beautiful and pleasing handsome face. She still couldn't look at it, and only raised her chin arrogantly and said "um".
Jing Tong followed behind Ye Cheng, served her into the exquisite carriage for transportation, and followed her all the way out.
Jiang Yu withdrew her gaze at Ye Cheng's arrogant back and looked down at the tip of her shoe. Her right hand was clenched into the warm palm of her hand - her slight fluctuation of affection could not escape Huo Shijiu's eyes.
The voices of people outside the door were far away, and Jiang Yu closed her eyes and only listened to the rustling of her clothes. When I raised my eyes, I saw that the little emperor was already standing in front of me.
"Sister, what are you thinking?"
Jiang Yu raised her eyes and looked at the little emperor, the little emperor's gaze at this time was as calm as water, and last night's madness was like two people, Jiang Yu looked at each other for a moment and bowed respectfully, and said bluntly, "The concubine is thinking, Ye Jieyu is too stupid, and her luck is too bad." I'm afraid I'm going to say goodbye forever in this life. โ
The little emperor smiled playfully: "Oh? Listen to you, but you are saying that Ye Jieyu is doing something wrong? โ
"The emperor originally wanted to let her go, didn't he?"
"You see it."
"It's just that she's stupid. I don't know what to do and what not to do. This incident is no wonder to others. Jiang Yu sighed and said.
The little emperor took a step forward and got closer to Jiang Yu, "Sister, you raise your head." โ
Hearing this, Jiang Yu obeyed the order, slowly raised her head, and looked at the young man who was close at hand. Her body is delicate, her figure is not tall, and the little emperor is a little taller than when she first met, and Jiang Yu has to look up to him at this time.
The little emperor seemed to enjoy the feeling of looking down on others, and asked with a smile, "Does my sister think I am too vicious?" โ
Jiang Yu looked at the little emperor's eyes and shook her head, "The concubine doesn't think so." โ
"Oh?" Apparently unconvinced.
"The concubine feels that the emperor is doing the right thing."
"You're so funny, I know that you and Ye Jieyu are close friends."
"Yes, the concubine was familiar with Ye Jieyu before she left the pavilion. It is true that I don't want to see her die young. It's just that the emperor also has the emperor's hardships, and compared with the stability of the country and the life of a little woman, the former is much more important. โ
After listening to her explanation, the little emperor felt that there was a lot of ironing in his heart, and whether Jiang Yu was telling the truth or not was no longer important to him at this moment. Although he hated Jiang Yu's rough treatment of him yesterday, he also knew that when that kind of drug addiction came up, he really didn't look like a qualified Mingjun.
Huo Shijiu knew the little emperor the most, and when he looked at his eyes, he guessed his thoughts, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, yesterday's incident is the responsibility of the minister, and the minister is willing to bear it." Please ask the emperor to condemn the crime. โ
Jiang Yu also knelt down on her knees and said: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with the Hou Ye, it is completely the concubine's own doing. โ
Huo Shijiu saw that Jiang Yan also confessed her guilt, and anxiously gave her a look. After all, he has been friends with the little emperor for many years, and he can't bear to do anything to him. But Jiang Yu is different. Don't look at the little emperor calling Jiang Wei his sister, he just thinks Jiang Wei is interesting, and because Jiang Wei is his wife, he just tries to be decent. If something really happens, he has confidence, and the little emperor will face him first.
"You're both in a good position. The little emperor snorted and said, "Why, it's so glorious to fight me, and it's worth fighting for 'credit'?" โ
"I don't dare."
The little emperor suddenly leaned down and glared at Jiang Yan fiercely: "I can't hate to slap you now!" โ
"Your Majesty, please punish the minister." Huo Nineteen kowtowed.
Jiang Wei pursed her lips.
The little emperor glanced at Huo Shijiu, and said helplessly: "But I can't bear to beat you, I feel that I have mistreated the 'hero', and Brother Ying is distressed." Let's not fight. โ
Huo Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yu waited for the little emperor's next words.
"You are so spicy, Brother Ying and you must have been bullied a lot, and you dare to bully me today, beating me and resonating with words, how can I spare you? I will punish you to go to the outside of the temple to kneel, when will I be angry, and when will you return to the house? โ
"Your Majesty! The minister is willing to be punished on behalf of his wife, and the minister ......"
"Brother Ying!"
The little emperor roared angrily, interrupted Huo Shijiu's next words, and said in a deep voice: "Don't think that I have a good temper, even if your original intention is for me, but if you beat the king of a country, don't you think what you are doing is wrong?" I only punished her for kneeling, and it was already a light hair! โ
"What the emperor said is that the minister doesn't feel that the emperor's punishment is wrong, but the concubine's body is at a loss. It's still weak. She couldn't help but kneel. โ
"I can't help but afford it. It's her business, punishment or not, it's my business! Isn't it true that I can't even punish people now? โ
Huo Shijiu looked at the little emperor's eyes with cold and sharp eyes, and there was a hideous color, and his heart ached.
Jiang Yu had already kowtowed and said: "Thank you to the emperor for your grace, and thank the emperor for your grace." He got up and walked outside the hall and got off the Danqi. Then facing the lattice fan in the main hall of the Appreciation Pavilion, he knelt upright.
Huo Jiujiu knew that he couldn't persuade anymore. The king wants the ministers to die, and the ministers cannot not die. How much more is it a punishment for kneeling? Jiang Yu beat the emperor and only punished him for kneeling, which was already a light sentence. If he pleads again, the little emperor will only be more irritable, and it will hurt the friendship between the monarch and the minister for many years, and it will make the suspicious little emperor doubt him.
Yes, he knew in his heart that over time, the little emperor grew older. There are more and more things he fears, and the things he cares about have become more and more concerned.
If he wants to be good for Jiang Wei. You can't open your mouth again.
The little emperor kept staring at Jiang Yan, who was kneeling upright, but the corner of his eye was observing Huo Shijiu's movements, and seeing that he did not continue to intercede for Jiang Wei after all, he felt a lot more comfortable in his heart, and snorted: "Brother Ying, accompany me to play chess." โ
"Minister...... Compliance. Huo Nineteen got up, followed the little emperor, got off the Danqi, and walked past Jiang Yu to the Appreciation Pavilion.
Jiang Yu was punished and knelt, he couldn't plead for mercy, and he couldn't accompany him, he was really heartbroken.
Jiang Yu knew that this was already the lightest punishment for beating the emperor. After all, no matter how cowardly the little emperor is, he is also the honor of the Ninety-Five. It's just a punishment, and she doesn't feel wronged. On the contrary, I felt that her palm had slapped the emperor, which was quite comfortable.
Jiang Yu knelt calmly, quietly waiting for the little emperor to dissipate.
Huo Shijiu played two games of chess with the emperor, ate tea and chatted for a while, and had lunch together, until the little emperor took a nap, and he didn't mean to let Jiang Yan get up.
Huo Shijiu suppressed the anxiety in his heart and did not plead. Because he knew the temper of the little emperor, the more he pleaded, the longer the little emperor might punish her for kneeling.
He originally thought that when he had rested enough, how could the little emperor exempt Jiang Yu from his guilt.
But until the little emperor allowed him to return to the house and he had to leave by car, Jiang Yu was still kneeling in the courtyard of the Appreciation Pavilion.
Jiang Yu was sent back to the Hou Mansion in the middle of the night.
Huo Shijiu was anxiously circling in the study at this time, and as soon as he heard that someone from the palace had brought his wife back, he didn't have time to wear it, so he rushed out.
Jiang Wei sat on her shoulders, her skirt below her knees was covered with mud, her face was not good, but she was in good spirits. Jing Tong instructed the little chamberlains to put down their shoulders and salute Huo Shijiu: "The emperor asked the servants to escort the lady back." โ
"I'm tired of Father-in-law Jing."
"Don't dare. Can't. Marquis Jinning and his wife are for the emperor, and the emperor knows it in his heart, but the situation is special and he has to be punished. Please don't be surprised by Lord Hou and Mrs. Jing Tong gave Huo 19 another big salute and said: "Hou Ye is dedicated to the emperor, the emperor knows, and the servants also see it in their eyes, and they only admire Hou Ye and his wife Gao Yi." โ
"Gonggong Jing has won the award."
Huo 19 and Jing Tong exchanged pleasantries, Jing Tong was about to take the attendants to say goodbye, Huo 19 hugged Jiang Wei and went back to the study directly.
After the autumn rains, the weather is wet and cold, and the floor tiles are still covered with rain, so I kneel from morning to night. Rao is Jiang Wei is in good health, a pair of knees are already red and swollen at this time, and the pain is piercing, and she is about to feel the storage below the knees.
Huo Jiu lifted her soaked skirt, lifted her soaked silk pants stuck to her legs, touched her cold skin with his fingertips, looked at the bruises on her red and swollen knees, and hurriedly turned around and ordered someone to call for an imperial doctor.
Jiang Yan's ability to endure pain is excellent, and she did not show anything wrong at this time, but said: "I'm hungry." โ
"I've been preparing for a long time." Huo 19 ordered someone to set the meal again, and said, "I've wronged you, girl." If I had known that, I shouldn't have taken you with me yesterday. โ
"It's okay, it's just a penalty, I'm afraid of something. By the way, does Daddy know? โ
"Dad smelled it at dinner, and I didn't tell the truth." Huo Jiu sighed: "If my father and mother know, I don't know how anxious I am." โ
"Well, don't sue them."
Jiang Wei's voice fell, and she heard Huo Dazhuo's coaxing voice outside: "You still want to hide it from me!" Don't be too protective of that little bastard! (To be continued......)
