068. Seizure of power
"Ninth princess, it was Yancui who came to report that Feng Zhaoyi had an affair with someone, and the concubine was busy preparing for the Hundred Flowers Banquet and made a mistake when she neglected to do so." The concubine tried her best to defend: "The concubine has no grievances with Feng Zhaoyi, there is no reason to harm her, ask the ninth princess to learn clearly!" ”
Yancui was frightened when she heard this: "Ninth princess, the slave and maid are wronged, all this is ......"
"Shut up!" The concubine interrupted her sharply: "Yancui, you have to admit the mistakes you made, don't bother your family, do you know the way?" ”
Seeing the cruel gaze swept by the concubine, thinking of the family members who were imprisoned by the concubine, Yancui burst into tears, and then lowered her head, her difficult voice was full of remorse and sadness: "The slave should die-"
It's only because she was blind and followed the wrong master that she ended up like this.
"It has been really hard for the concubine to take care of the affairs of the harem for so many years, and it is inevitable that there will be negligence." looked at the concubine condescendingly, and a sneer appeared on Qingyun's lips: "The matter has been ascertained, Yancui turned his back on the master first, assassinated the master and Zhongliang first, dragged out of the cane and killed immediately!" If all the people in Jinhua Palace are not effective, they will all be punished with a rod, and if they dare to commit it again, they will not be spared! As for the chaiseli."
Speaking of this, Qingyun paused, and said majestically: "The concubine inspector is not strict, she cares about people's lives, the rod is twenty years old, and the victim Marin is compensated with one thousand taels of gold, from now on, the affairs of the harem will be jointly taken care of by the palace and the concubine, and the concubine will think about it behind closed doors for half a year!" Come on, drag the smoke out of the cloud! ”
Behind the concubine is the cunning and powerful prime minister, even if Yancui confesses that she is instructed by her, the prime minister will do everything possible to protect her.
What she has to do now is to make those who are loyal to her cold to her, then isolate her, and finally make her pay for her blood debt.
The death of Lan Jue in the previous life can always be engraved in my heart!
Immediately two Praetorian Guards came in dragging the earth-colored Yancui out, and soon, there was the crackling sound of sticks hitting the flesh and the painful screams of Yancui in the courtyard, and everyone was frightened and sweated coldly.
Mo Xuan and the others looked at Qingyun who had made such a decisive decision, and their hearts were either happy or worried.
"The slave (slave) thanks the ninth princess for not killing!" Everyone in Jinhua Palace secretly breathed a sigh of relief: although it hurt, although the rod was painful, they finally saved their lives.
And when the concubine heard that Qingyun had accepted her right to take care of the harem, she was immediately anxious.
She has been in charge of the affairs of the harem for so many years, and she has long known the marrow, and once the rights are handed over, it will be difficult to take them back.
Besides, without rights, how is she going to deal with the group of vixens in the harem? And how to deal with this little slut?
Glimpsing the concubine's desire to speak and stopping, Qingyun seemed to smile: "The concubine thinks that the disposition of this palace is too light, and she wants to correct the law by example?" ”
"The concubine doesn't dare!" The concubine lowered her eyes to cover the resentment in her eyes: "The ninth princess is fair and strict, and the concubines are convinced." ”
Slut, dare to do this to her, sooner or later, she will definitely double her devotion.
The concubine asked to return to Yanqing Palace to carry out the twenty canes, and Qingyun was approved, but she appointed Mo Xuan to supervise it, and by the way, she took back the 1,000 taels of gold that the concubine compensated Ma Lin, after all, the concubine was the woman of her father, and she always had to take care of her father's face.
The concubine hated it to the core, but she didn't dare to disobey.
After everyone had finished executing the punishment, Qingyun instructed Situ Jingyu to take Ma Lin back to give him a thick burial, and then took Zike to prepare to return to the palace, Feng Zhaoyi, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Ninth princess, please stay, the concubine has something to say to the ninth princess alone." ”
"Princess Yujiu, Ma Lin is actually a concubine's ......"
