Shen Lian, who has always been proud of herself and is not afraid of heaven and earth, peeked at the Queen Mother who was sitting on the chair with a blue face at this moment, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little hairy.

She had been kneeling on the ground for a quarter of an hour, but the Queen Mother never called her up, just drank tea without mercy.

Her legs had changed from the initial pain to unconscious numbness, Shen Lian straightened her back as much as she could, wanting to move her muscles and bones, and then kneeling like this, I was afraid that my legs would be scrapped.

No, I have to say something, do you really want to kneel here until the sky is dark? Shen Lian frowned and gently knocked her hand on her leg, and said stiffly: "Queen Mother, the concubine doesn't know what she did wrong?" "You're still asking me what you're doing wrong? Do you want me to point you out one by one so quickly that you forgot what you just did? The Queen Mother's voice was full of anger and blame.

"Queen Mother!" Shen Lian walked forward on his knees, grabbed the corner of the queen mother's clothes, and defended himself: "Queen Mother, Eunuch Cui made a lot of noise in the East Palace, and tried to go straight to the prince's bedroom, he is very disrespectful, the concubine body just did what she should do, the queen mother is not in charge of the concubine, how can she still treat the concubine body like this?" Although Shen Lian's words are a bit evasive, they are indeed the truth.

In front of these many subordinates, the Queen Mother punished the crown princess for the sake of two subordinates, which is not like words.

The Queen Mother was indifferent to Shen Lian's plea, and pretended to inadvertently gently waved away Shen Lian's hand on her lap, and continued to teach Shen Lian: "As the crown princess, do you have a little solemn and solemn appearance? Not only is he pitiful to the old man in the palace, but he even has such a heavy hand, if it is rumored that the crown princess killed the eunuch in charge, wouldn't it make people laugh at the royal cruelty and ruthlessness? ! Before she finished speaking, Shen Lian's tears rolled down like beads with broken threads, and she cried: "Queen Mother! Cui Jincheng was going to break into the palace, the prince had just taken the medicine and fell asleep, I was in a hurry, I just asked someone to tie him up, I didn't want him to scream and scold uncleanly, shouldn't he be punished if he committed a crime? Dowager! Am I going to watch a eunuch come and humiliate us? Don't you want the majesty of the royal family? The Queen Mother had no pity for a while, and she couldn't think of gagging her, so she hurriedly diverted the topic, and said: "It's nothing about the next person, it's just that I sent someone to your palace to get people three times and twice, but you pushed back and made these big messes, you can talk to me well, is it so difficult for me to ask you personally?" For this question, Shen Lian has been prepared for a long time, just say it, it is not necessary for the Queen Mother to believe it or not, no matter what, she must find an excuse to give each other a step.

"The Queen Mother doesn't know, that girl has been weak since she was a child, and there are always three diseases and five disasters throughout the year, and the concubine is only afraid that when she arrives in the Queen Mother's palace, she will only be unlucky in vain, so she is not called.

The concubine also told Gonggong Cui and Mama Jing this, but they insisted on not listening, where did they put the safety of the Queen Mother? Shen Lian looked like she hated iron but not steel, and once again aimed at Cui Jincheng and Mama Jing.

Mama Jing's face turned pale with fright on the side, when did the princess say this, she had no impression at all, but she didn't dare to refute it with pity, after all, there was Cui Jincheng's unlucky end to show herself, she didn't want to provoke Shen Lian anymore.

At this time, I had to hurry up and say something to remedy it, Mama Jing hurriedly leaned down and knelt down, kowtowed a few times first, and said: "The Queen Mother atoned for her sins, the old slave didn't think so much at the time, she just wanted to bring people over to the Queen Mother to have a look, and then send the people back to the Crown Princess at the end, the old slave would never dare to let the Queen Mother stay by her side for such a sick seedling!" The Queen Mother's face softened slightly, waved her hand and said, "You two should get up."

Shen Lian thanked him, and someone helped him to get up and sit down.

However, even if she escaped this catastrophe temporarily, Shen Lian knew in her heart that the Queen Mother would never spare herself, after all, the rod scolding the slave was nothing in itself, and the thing that really made the Queen Mother angry was that she swept her face.

Punishment is inevitable, but as long as the prince is not affected and Yuanyuan is protected, Shen Lian is willing to suffer these hardships.

"You used lynching without permission, and beat the eunuch in charge not like a human figure, if I don't punish you, others will say that I spoiled you juniors, and you can't be punished."

The Queen Mother said slowly.

Shen Lian had no choice but to catch her meaning and replied: "The concubine is willing to be punished."

"Then go to the Buddhist hall to copy the scriptures, when to sincerely repent and know that you are wrong, when to come out, you have always been stubborn, and if you don't copy it ten times, you probably won't realize what you are wrong."

The Queen Mother glanced at Shen Lian with ulterior motives, and said, "I'm also tired, Jing Mama, help me in to rest."

Mama Jing hurriedly stepped forward to help the Queen Mother's hand and went in.

Shen Lian secretly complained in her heart when she heard the Queen Mother's words, but her face was still calm, she kowtowed, and said respectfully: "Yes." Wave

Dragging his sore legs, Shen Lian limped to the Buddha Hall.

After tossing for a day, it was getting late, the light in the Buddhist hall was dim, and sometimes there were gusts of gloomy wind, Shen Lian hugged her body and involuntarily shivered, shivering from the cold and came to the desk to copy the scriptures.

These Buddhist scriptures, if you don't copy them for a few days and nights, I'm afraid you won't be able to complete the task, Shen Lian sighed, and comforted himself: "Just think of it as a pleasant nourishment, I just don't know how His Highness is doing now."

In the East Palace, a white dove landed in front of the window, and Yuan Yuan took out a letter from under its wings, and after reading it, a faint smile appeared on her face.

The letter said that the Mo family had sent an urgent letter to the queen mother's maiden brother Wang Jingting, and Wang Jingting would definitely tell the queen mother about the seriousness of this matter when he received the letter.

Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief, as expected, Xiaobai's work efficiency is high, now she just needs to wait with peace of mind, the Queen Mother will naturally release the princess, and everyone will be safe.

The three maids who were looking forward to it all asked, "What does the letter say?" Yuanyuan put the letter on the oil lamp and burned it before she spoke: "The crown princess will be safe."

Although the maids didn't know what to do, they got Yuanyuan's words, and they also got some comfort, and their mood calmed down a little, and they didn't want to be as anxious as before.

Xia Liang suddenly remembered: "Hasn't the prince come back yet?" Su Mei sighed: "It's not, Lin Yang came back just now and said that the Queen Mother didn't want to see the prince at all, and the prince had been waiting outside the palace gate for a long time, and he didn't even see a shadow."

Yuanyuan was a little moved, turned her face to Ya'er and said, "Sister Ya'er, you ask Brother Lin Yang to bring the prince back, and the princess will be back soon."

Her tone was very firm, and Ya'er inexplicably trusted her words, and hurriedly went out to tell Lin Yang that Lin Yang went to the Queen Mother.

The prince was a little incredulous, but he had been waiting here at the palace gate for a few hours, and the queen mother had been refusing to see him behind closed doors, and it was useless to continue waiting, so it was better to go back and listen to what Yuanyuan's letter was about.

His body has always been weak, and when he heard that Shen Lian was taken to the Queen Mother's palace to be punished, he was so angry for a while that he almost didn't fall to the ground, and he was already holding his body to intercede for Shen Lian.

At this time, the prince was pale and dizzy, and he really didn't have the strength to continue to wait hopelessly, but fortunately, Lin Yang sent someone to carry the sedan chair over, and the prince was able to return to his palace safely.

When the prince saw Yuanyuan, he hurriedly asked her about the letter, and Yuanyuan saw that he was anxious, and was afraid that he would be emotional for a while and lose his mind, so he didn't dare to tell him directly, but only told him: "I sent a letter to the clansmen, asking them to plead with Wang Jingting, and the letter said that the king had agreed, and the queen mother had always listened to her brother, so I thought that this matter should be fine."

After hearing this, the prince sat down with confidence, and said in a whisper: "Very good, very good, Shen Lian finally doesn't have to suffer."

originally thought that Shen Lian was just bringing a wild girl who had no name, although the prince would not mind such a trivial matter like his grandmother, he didn't expect to form a good relationship for a while.

Since her family can contact the former prime minister, she should be either rich or expensive.

Also, I heard that Jiang Yue's medical expenses are very expensive, and ordinary people definitely look down on a doctor like Jiang Yue.

Su Mei and the others served the prince with a decoction, and Yuan Yuan watched from the side, and said in her heart: "If the prince knows that our people don't need to intercede at all, but directly threaten with mercy, I don't know what he will be shocked."
