Chapter 357: The Gap
In the sound of slapping rods and terrible screams. She finally stopped crying. Suddenly remembered something important: "That's right." Ring Wear. Just now they said that Brother Yun had made an order. No matter who will give birth to the prince in the future. The position of the queen will not change. Really? ”
Huanpei nodded cautiously: "Yes." Rumors have spread in the palace. And...... And they all say that the emperor is wise. That's as it should be. ”
Zhen Ruxue nodded. I feel a little uncomfortable. This discomfort is not because she really covets the queen's phoenix crown. It's because Dongling Guyun never gives up on Duanmu Youning. For her. The only one who cares is Dongling Guyun. None of the others had anything to do with her. Including the Queen's Throne.
The cane outside the door continued. More and faster chapters are here. At first, a few people could still scream. However, over time. Their screams grew quieter and quieter. Seeing that there is more gas out and less air in. But despite this. The screams still spread far and wide. It alarmed a lot of people. Including Duanmu Youning, who is also walking in the palace.
After autumn. Although the drought continues. The weather was a lot cooler. Duanmu Youning is walking casually with Shonan in the palace. After a while, I saw Xu Hanyan also coming towards him accompanied by the maid. See her. Xu Hanyan hurriedly came over to salute. The voice was still gentle and soft: "The concubine sees the queen's mother." ”
"No need to be polite. Duanmu smiled. "Concubine Liang also came out for a walk. ”
"Yes. More and faster chapters are here. Xu Hanyan nodded. "I saw that the weather was fine today. I also heard that chrysanthemums bloom in the Imperial Garden. Too many beautiful things. I want to go and walk. ”
Duanmu Youning nodded: "This is also the intention of this palace." Then let's go together. You can also talk while admiring chrysanthemums. ”
Xu Hanyan agreed. The two of them headed for the Imperial Garden. But just halfway through, he suddenly heard a scream from there. Duanmu Youning couldn't help but pause: "What's the matter." ”
"I don't know. Shonan agreed. "The Queen waits. The slave and maid went over and looked. ”
The two stayed where they were. In a short time, Shonan has already turned. With a hint of indignation on her face: "Mother." It was the emperor who was punishing several palace maids. He said that each man would be given a hundred strokes of the rod. You can't die and tell fortunes. If he dies, don't blame him for being ruthless. ”
Duanmu Youning couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this: "How can this be." The emperor has always been kind-hearted. Not a murderous person. How could he suddenly treat a few palace maids like this. ”
The details are not yet known. Shonan shook his head. "But. I'm afraid that the reason will be right for you. ”
Duanmu stared at each other. After a while, he sighed slightly: "For the sake of Concubine Xian." ”
"Yes. Shonan sneered. "It seems that they are talking behind their backs about being pampered because of pregnancy. But it was heard by Concubine Xian. Concubine Xian complained to the emperor. The emperor had to punish them. More and faster chapters are here. ”
Duanmu was silent for a moment. Then he sighed: "Have you come this far?" That's what I'm afraid of. Walk. Check it out. ”
Shonan nodded. Helped her in the direction of the imperial study. Xu Hanyan hesitated. Then he followed.
When Duanmu Youning arrived. Several palace maids were already dying. There was barely movement. Even if the stick falls on the body. They just had unconscious spasms. And Dongling Guyun stood aside. The face is expressionless.
Duanmu Youning saw this. His brow was already furrowed. Immediately shouted: "Stop." ”
The guards instinctively stopped. But they all involuntarily turned their heads to look at Dongling Guyun. The first time to update Duanmu Youning couldn't help but say. Immediately walked up to Dongling Guyun and gave a salute: "The emperor forgives the sin." Please wait. ”
Then she bypassed Dongling Guyun and went straight into the imperial study. Her eyes were calm: "Concubine Xian." ”
See her. Zhen Ruxue was taken aback at first. Instinctively, I had to get up and salute. But then she thought of the palace maid talking about her behind her back, which was far inferior to Duanmu Youning. A wave of jealousy suddenly welled up in my heart. He sat on a chair with a deliberate stab. He put his hands on his waist and said, "The queen mother forgives her sins." Concubines since they became pregnant. Physical inconvenience. Please forgive the concubines for not being able to see the courtesy. ”
"You're pregnant. These rituals can be dispensed with. Duanmu Youning didn't care. Said lightly, "But those palace maids can't support it for much longer." You'd better go and plead with the emperor immediately. lest they really have an accident. ”
Zhen Ruxue snorted: "Plead." Why did the concubines intercede for them? They speak ill of their concubines behind their backs. They should be punished and punished. ”
Duanmu Youning frowned. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "They really shouldn't talk about you behind your back." but sin is not unto death. Originally, the palace could intercede for them. But they are punished because of you. If the main palace goes to intercede. It seems that this palace deliberately traps you in unkindness. Not good for your reputation. So go for it. More and faster chapters are here. It's too late. ”
What Duanmu Youning said was the truth. And she was thoughtful enough. If she goes to plead with Dongling Guyun. Several palace maids will naturally be full of gratitude to her. And Zhen Ruxue, who caused them to suffer a lot, will be even more dissatisfied. Compare the two. Wouldn't it make everyone hate Zhen Ruxue even more. So although it is in a hurry. Duanmu Youning still thought of this. Only then did I plan to let Zhen Ruxue come forward in person.
However, Zhen Ruxue's face slowly turned red. Rather annoyed: if this was up to her. and immediately went to plead with Dongling Guyun, it would be better. But it was Duanmu Youning who came to remind him. She felt more and more that she was inferior to the queen mother. It seems more and more that she has a small belly and a ruthless heart. more thoroughly shows the gap between her and Duanmu Youning.
And right in this moment. The comments of those palace maids came to mind more and more clearly. She gritted her teeth. He sneered and said, "Thank you for the reminder." But the concubine thinks. They cannot be tolerated. They must be punished severely. to stop this unhealthy trend. lest anyone chew the root of their tongue behind their backs. ”
Duanmu Youning frowned. A faint disappointment flashed in his eyes: "Bengong has already said it just now." Even if they are wrong. and sin shall not be unto death. Moreover, they have been punished. Why do you have to put them to death? If they gossip a few words, they will lose their lives. It's not just you who are the first time to update. The important thing is that the emperor's reputation will also be affected. This palace finally advises you again: Be forgiving and forgiving. ”
However, the more she said. Zhen Ruxue's resistance became heavier. Seeing that she actually accused herself of destroying the emperor's reputation in just a few words. Zhen Ruxue was even more annoyed. His face became a little redder. Gritting his teeth, he said, "No." Brother Yun is not careless about people's lives for no reason. Rather, it is necessary to correct the atmosphere in the main palace. Those who like to talk and chew their tongues behind their backs will see what happens to them. Who else dares to talk nonsense. ”
Case. It is useless to say more. Duanmu Youning glanced at her coldly: "Okay." Then don't regret it. ”
With that, she turned and walked away. Zhen Ruxue was so angry that she slammed the table a few times. Although muttered a few curses. But he didn't dare to shout: "Damn." Excessive. Who wants you to pretend to be a good person. I don't want to plead with Brother Yun. See what you can do. How dare they say that about me. He deserved to die. ”
Come to the door. Duanmu Youning was slightly relieved that Dongling Guyun did not order the guards to continue. He took a few steps forward and said, "Your Majesty." The general situation is already known to the concubines. They are talking about the virtuous concubine behind their backs, and naturally they should not be very undeserved. But the emperor has punished them. They have also learned their lessons. From now on, you will know to be careful in what you say and do. Don't dare to talk nonsense anymore. The concubines had the courage to plead with the emperor on their behalf. Ask the emperor to spare their lives. ”
As Duanmu Youning said. Dongling Guyun has never been a murderous person. Although Fang Cai was also annoyed that these people were chewing on the root of their tongues. and also put aside the cruel words. But he didn't intend to kill them. So although he did not want to admit it. In fact, he has been waiting for Zhen Ruxue to come and intercede. He borrowed the slope to get off the donkey. lest there really be a fatality.
Who knows how to wait and wait. Zhen Ruxue didn't move. It was as if I wished I had beaten these people to death. He was thinking about whether to stop. It was to hear this. He nodded immediately. said lightly: "There is a queen who intercedes. I will spare you this time. Come on. Take them down to heal. But if there is a next time. Determined to be unforgiving. ”
Order. Immediately, someone stepped forward and carried several palace maids down. Ask the doctor to heal them without mentioning it. Duanmu Youning sighed secretly. Curtsy saluted: "The concubine retires." ”
"Wait. "I saw her turn to leave. Dongling Guyun suddenly opened his mouth to stop it. "Why didn't you immediately intercede with me? What did I do when I ran into the imperial study? ”
Duanmu Youning sighed: "The concubine originally wanted to persuade Concubine Xian to intercede with the emperor. But she refused. The concubine had no choice but to dare to open this mouth. Thank you to the emperor for giving the concubine this face. No. In fact, the emperor is not giving face to his concubines. But the emperor has always ruled the world with benevolence and righteousness. I never intended to actually kill them. ”
Dongling Guyun picked the corners of his lips: "You don't have to put a high hat on me. I also knew that this time I was going a little too far. But you are indeed my queen. Do things thoughtfully. It's a pity. Ru Xue didn't understand your hard work. ”
"She's just a child's heart. Duanmu Youning smiled faintly. "Concubine Xian actually doesn't have bad intentions. It's just that it's simpler to think about things. I was just thinking about how I could get out of this breath. I didn't think about how this kind of thing would affect the big picture. The concubine originally wanted to redeem some for her. However, she has a deep prejudice against concubines. took the kindness of the concubine as malice. ”
Dongling Guyun was silent for a moment. A fair word was said: "It's not just that. What's more important is that Ru Xue compares to you. There is still a big gap. And this gap. I'm afraid that she can't shorten her life. ”
Inside the door. Zhen Ruxue, who happened to hear this, closed her eyes sadly. Tears flowed long: Brother Yun. It was in your heart. Have you always looked at me like this?
