The sudden clear sound was not too loud, but it was like a heavy stone smashed into a shallow lake, which instantly stirred up a thousand waves.

What the?

Many of the people who had their heads down suddenly looked up.

Then, they really saw that there was a kneeling woman in front of Emperor Chu-

It's not too late!

"Ah Wan ......"

Hai's Bai Clan's face turned pale, and after glancing at each other, he was already busy stepping out.

"Two old ladies and slowly."

I didn't want to, but I was suddenly stopped by a hand next to me.

As soon as the two turned around, they saw Duchess Wu Guo looking at them with a slight light in her eyes, and said, "Why don't you wait for the two old ladies?" The emperor is not necessarily angry. ”

With that, she turned her face again, blinked slightly, and glanced at the kneeling Shi Feifei.

"Oh? What's the matter with you? ”

Emperor Chu was obviously stunned. But then he asked.

In any case, a symbolic question is a must for the emperor.

With this sound alone, many people heard the meaning of deterrence. A shiver fell, and when everyone was shocked, they saw that it was not too late, and all kinds of surprises rolled up on their faces.

This...... This village girl, didn't she suddenly go crazy!

However, when I looked closely, I was even more shocked to find:

The kneeling woman, with a straight back, and her body and eyes were relaxed and fearless, although her body was weak. How can there be such cringe and timidity as seen at luncheon?

This......

The onlookers, you look at me, I look at you, and they have all seen a bit of speculation in each other's eyes.

It's not too late, and at this time, I immediately bowed and replied:

"Your Majesty, the courtiers are presumptuous. There is really a confusion in my heart, and I can't solve it if I don't have the emperor. Only then did the courtiers have the courage to hope that the emperor could solve their doubts for the courtiers. ”

That's it.

There was silence around, and the surprise on everyone's faces intensified.

"Why are you confused?" The emperor asked casually.

The tone sounded a little angry and displeased.

Everyone looked at it, thinking that if they had a little eyesight, they should retreat immediately. Angering the Son of Heaven is a big deal.

But it's not too late to continue: "Your Majesty, look at it." ”

With that, she stood up suddenly, and then walked to a place around where the palace lamp was made.

After a while, she had some more lamp oil in her hand, and a flint.

It's not too late to repeat: "Let's see." ”

After that, he walked straight towards the old woman who was pulling and imprisoning the flowing clothes.

Before many people could react, they raised their hands too late, and suddenly pulled the old woman out.

"What do you do?" The old lady was stunned.

"Tell the emperor my question, what's the matter, isn't Mama ready to cooperate?"

"......" the old lady choked and doubted.

It's not too late, and there's no superfluous explanation.

In the flash of light, the lamp oil in her hand was suddenly poured on the old woman.

The flint rang out.

Wow......

In the blink of an eye—

A fire ignited on Mama's body.

Soon, the fire turned into a raging wave.

"Ahh

"Ahh

The sudden screams of the old grandmother, as well as the screams of some timid women, instantly mixed together and sounded at the same time.

"Presumptuous!" At the same time, there was also a heavy angry rebuke from Emperor Chu.

Many people around me are already stupid.

Bai's, Hai's, Duchess Wuguo, Shi Manmo...... The faces of the people who were waiting had instantly turned snow-white, and there was no blood in sight.

"Huh."

However—

The person concerned, it was not too late, but at this time, he snorted coldly like a nobody, and he didn't see any change in his expression, so he stood like that, quietly watching the old lady being burned by the fire.

After a while, the fire on the old woman's body was extinguished.

It was two palace people who walked over and kicked her a few times to extinguish it.

There is no water around here, and the clothes worn in summer are thin and not wide, so the subconscious fire extinguishing action is naturally this.

"Presumptuous!" The emperor was already glaring angrily, and it was not too late.

In his tone, the killing intent had risen.

"Your Majesty."

It was also at this time that Shi Feiwan knelt down violently with a thud.

bowed, and hurriedly replied: "The courtier wants to ask the emperor, in order to extinguish the fire for the grandmother, whether the two palace maids offended the two grandmothers, and whether it was wrong?" ”

“……”

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings were quiet again.

Surprised, many people had unconsciously glanced in the direction of Liuyi.

This village girl turned out to be for ...... A girl?

"That's what you're asking?"

Looking at Emperor Chu, who seemed to have murderous intentions, he suddenly felt certain when he heard this.

Emperor Chu is naturally not stupid. The slightly narrowed eyes seemed to be nothing, and he even glanced in the direction of the flowing clothes.

"That girl, is it your girl?" Emperor Chu asked for the second time.

"Yes." It's not too late.

Yes, this is basically how Liuyi offended Jia Concubine!

It wasn't too late to understand at first. However, after listening to some of Liuyi's arguments and hearing some chatter from passers-by around her, she probably guessed what happened:

Even Jia Concubine was unlucky for some reason, and her body was on fire. And Liuyi somehow bumped into it, and then extinguished the fire on Jia Concubine's body just like the two palace people who put out the fire for the old lady.

Of course...... There are so many palace people around a concubine, how can it be Liuyi's turn, this is the doubt in her heart. It's just that it's not convenient to delve into it for the time being. To understand everything, she has to ask Liuyi herself.

Saving people is a good thing.

But—

This palace is an extremely perverted place!

This era is also an extremely perverted era of distinction between dignity and inferiority!

Jia Concubine is a concubine who is high up. Whatever the reason, being kicked and trampled on by such a lowly slave seemed to her to be a great loss of face, an offense and an insult, and a slave who stepped on her head. Especially when that kind of ugliness was seen by so many people, it angered her even more.

In her opinion, it is to extinguish the fire for her, and that is to extinguish it with clothes, or water.

Otherwise, it should have been extinguished directly with her body.

But this stinky girl just uses the soles of her shoes, and she uses her feet!

"First, although the two palace people are not guilty, it is a big crime for you to do such a murderous thing in front of me!"

Emperor Chu squinted, and his voice was already a little intimidating, and he replied word by word:

"Second, the two palace people are not guilty, and the truth of the matter is as you said, your girl is just trying to put out the fire, and she is still not innocent. is just a grandmother, how can it be compared with a good concubine.

Even if she can't find water for the time being, it's not good to wear clothes in the summer, and she can't find other things, and she shouldn't be like that. You know what? If you are a palace person who understands the rules, it will not be like this even if you put out the fire with your body. ”

Of course, it all depends on the attitude of the Lord. If the lord has no intention of reproaching, it means that Liuyi has merit, and it is not too late to think that this emperor will be able to find some reasonable excuses.

She heard Emperor Chu's embarrassment.

But he suddenly replied: "Your Majesty, forgive the courtiers for saying bluntly:

First, if the palace people in the palace really understand the rules, how can there be no one else around Jia Concubine Niangniang. Protecting the safety of the mother, but it is the turn of a girl from the Beppu family?

Second, it was a last resort! There was no water to find, no clothes to wear, and no objects around to put out fires. In the eyes of the courtiers, there is no difference between fighting a fire with one's body and fighting a fire with one's feet.

Moreover, putting out the fire with one's body may also spread the fire and burn oneself, which also has its drawbacks.

With enough, you can avoid the drawbacks.

As for Jia Concubine, she felt that it would damage the royal face...... The courtiers dared to ask the emperor, if you know in your heart that a person is high in bones, but one day he is insulted and even beaten, will you feel that he is no longer a noble person? ”

"......" Emperor Chu was stunned.

"Your Majesty won't." It was not too late, but before he could answer, he spontaneously said: "The emperor still won't underestimate that person." Even now, Jia Concubine Niangniang is a noble mother, even if this happens, she is still a palace concubine that everyone respects, and will not detract from anyone's awe and respect for her.

The world praises the bamboo body, knots, and fortitude, but there are also some bamboos that grow crookedly and die young, and the world is still only like this.

No one would look down on the mother, so why care about such a small matter. Regardless of it, it shows everyone's example.

It's like me. Everyone calls it a strong country, the people are harmonious, the government is harmonious, all kinds of waste are prosperous, and no country dares to underestimate it.

Even occasionally, I am heard of some bad things by other countries, or I am ridiculed and said a few words by people from other countries, so what?

Da Chu is still a strong country! Self-informal. Not afraid of individual remarks. Even if the wind and waves are not afraid, they will never be afraid of things when things come, and they will not worry about any small waves. Because of such a small ridicule, it does not hurt the Chu country in the slightest.

Because, no matter what, Da Chu is a strong country and cannot be changed! If anyone ridicules them for a trivial matter, they are just short-sighted or ignorant of the world, otherwise they are just lip service and deceive themselves. But in the bottom of his heart, he will still be in awe and jealousy, and he will not dare to underestimate half a point.

My emperor is the emperor of a great country, and he will not take this category of petty ridicule in his eyes, and he doesn't care about it, this is the demeanor and fearlessness of the emperor of my great country.

Of course, the courtiers knew that my little maid was not strict in her rules, and the emperor and the mother punished her for the palace law. The courtiers didn't dare to blame half a point, pleading, one was really selfish for pity, the second was to let the mother relax, such a trivial matter did not have to be locked in the heart, and the third was that the courtier thought that the courtier's little girl was guilty, but she also saved people.

The emperor's rewards and punishments are clear, and after a success, the courtiers have the courage to ask: Offset each other! ”

After a passage, it is not too late without stopping.

After speaking, it was another bow.

Then he knelt down in a regular manner, with a straight back and an honest attitude.

There was still silence around.

After a long time, no one responded.

After only a few moments, I could hear the faint sound of gasping around me—

Damn it! It's not too late!

What a strong country theory!

The Beirong people present were even more surprised, and there were white-colored people.

Tonight, the palace walked in the water, and when the palace concubine made this contradiction, the Beirong envoys also watched at the scene...... It's a big deal, but it's still a bit embarrassing in the end.

The emperor is angry, this is one of the reasons.

And it's not too late to say -
