Chapter 311: Conviction
Chu Zikai knows that Yu Zhao's true heart has always been strong, arrogant and stubborn, and he has never seen her suppress her heart so hard, making this cautious and cautious attitude, Chu Zikai can empathize with some suppressed emotions just by looking at it with his eyes, and it is conceivable that she has no good feelings in her heart at this time.
Thinking of this, Chu Zikai became more and more distressed, stubbornly caught up with Yu Zhao, so that she couldn't hide, held her hand, shook her head and denied what she said, and his tone was extremely gentle but undoubtedly in charge of her:
"All along, when you get along with me, you are more scruples about the rules, and often persuade me, but I don't listen, where is it that you have lost your duties and violated the palace rules? Last night's incident was also the fault of my idea, I am a dignified man, dare to act, and I will never punish you! Whoever refuses to accept will be punished, then I will explain the words to her and accept it instead of you. ”
The partiality is obvious, over the years, these outstanding women in the palace have not seen what kind of people have never seen in their eyes, but they have never seen Chu Zikai so unsparingly pampered? The fire of jealousy almost burned their minds, and they were all secretly gritting their teeth and cursing, because the anger was so great, that many people closed their teeth too hard, and their mouths became sore.
A group of people who have not made mistakes knelt humbly, a person who has made a mistake is coaxed by good words, the same woman, Chu Zikai's attitude of this world is so different that Liu Zhaorong is so angry that she can't breathe, but she didn't forget to think about seizing the opportunity to stumble on Yu Zhao, and secretly looked around, and found that everyone who was fighting side by side with her seemed to have died down, and her heart was even more angry.
Secretly scolded the people around him for not using the embroidered pillow, and after Liu Zhaorong forced himself to calm down, he quickly rolled his eyes to make an idea. Gritting his teeth, he finally mustered up the courage to stabilize his voice and risk death to admonish:
"Back to Your Majesty, the concubines and all the sisters feel that although the dragon pattern of Concubine Yi's sister is unintentional, it can reverse the yin and yang, just like cursing the Jiangshan Society to cause a change, it is really a big loss of proportion, it should not be forgiven so easily, if Your Majesty ignores right and wrong and connives, favors her, and accidentally spreads it, I am afraid that it will be criticized by the world......"
While speaking, Liu Zhaorong's sense of fear became more and more intense, the big winter day was already drenched in cold sweat, after a pause, he cowered and raised his head tentatively, checked what the current situation was, and saw that Chu Zikai was still facing away from everyone and did not move, did not react, as if he did not mean to scold and interrupt, the hanging heart was slightly lowered, and continued:
"You must know that freezing three feet, it is not a day's cold, the concubine can sense the inappropriateness from many small things, last night I saw Concubine Yi Niangniang regardless of dignity, naturally with His Majesty to stand together in the royal Luo umbrella, and then, when she got up, she served His Majesty in the boots and was rusty, and she despised the way of the husband and wife and the ministers today than Your Majesty, it can be seen that Concubine Yi's sister did not obey the etiquette in front of His Majesty, it has become the norm, if Your Majesty does not correct it in time, and then indulge her like this today and before, the concubine is only afraid, in the long run, There can be serious consequences. ”
"Are you finished?"
After silently listening to Liu Zhaorong's detailed count of Yu Zhao's crimes, Chu Zikai's eyes still fell on her with disdain for a second, and he only kept looking at Yu Zhao, who was depressed and unable to keep up. replied to Liu Zhaorong's words with irony:
"You care more about Concubine Yi than anyone else, and you can observe and remember the details of her every move on weekdays so clearly, you really have extraordinary eyesight and thoughtfulness."
Hearing this, Liu Zhaorong bowed his head respectfully, saluted again, and replied in a low voice:
"The concubines don't dare to be so ridiculous as Your Majesty, but they often keep the etiquette in mind, although the concubines are anxious, but they can distinguish right from wrong, know the position of Concubine Yi, and then be higher than the concubines and others, it must not be as high as the queens and queen mothers of the past dynasties, as noble as them, and can still enshrine this etiquette in the supreme position in their hearts and dare not disobey, and now Concubine Yi has the courage to be this person who ignores the etiquette, if she ignores her sin, it is reasonable and reasonable, it is not possible to say that it is gracious, so even if the concubine is risking offending her today, I have to stand up bravely and correct it, and I hope that Your Majesty will deal with it fairly......"
Once pointed out by the most unruly and unclear shrew in the palace to ignore etiquette, no matter who it is, this grievance in her heart can't help but double, just by looking at Yu Zhao's slightly pursed lips and drooping corners of her mouth, Chu Zikai can immediately clearly perceive the unspeakable pain in her heart, so she has to caress her hand to show comfort.
The chattering mouth of the eight women on the side still did not stop, Liu Zhaorong saw that no one stopped him, and he was full of confidence, and pulled out all the ancestors who had been dead for a long time as examples, and the more he talked, the more he croaked, the same duck croaked, which made Chu Zikai's heart more and more annoyed, and the green tendons in his forehead finally couldn't help but burst, turned around and interrupted her, looked at Liu Zhaorong coldly, and after a sarcastic laugh, he asked:
"Then in your opinion, what kind of punishment should I give Concubine Yi for this matter?"
Thinking that Chu Zikai would say this thing to solicit opinions, it was because he listened to the truth he had just said, Liu Zhaorong seemed to feel that he had been recognized by him for the first time, so he was bound to seize the opportunity of this performance, and was ecstatic and carried away, so he didn't realize the ridicule in his tone at all, and quickly stood up and replied:
"Back to Your Majesty, the concubines thought that whoever commits this precept, even if he is exempted from the death penalty with a light sentence, will be demoted to a position and grounded, and then he will be punished with forty rods for the crime of trespassing. Only by disposing of it in accordance with the law can the palace be convinced, the palace rules can be strict, and the atmosphere of the back court can be established! ”
"Well said, it's the right atmosphere!"
The words spit out are so high-sounding, making a good example of a virtuous woman, but Chu Zikai has long understood enough of Liu Zhaorong's unspeakable dirty methods over the years, and he will not be deceived by this appearance, and he is very disgusted with her inconsistency and pretending to be righteous and criticizing others, and said coldly:
"Since it is to correct the atmosphere, how can you just look at the present, you must completely sweep out the bad atmosphere of the old and dirty in this palace, I think about it carefully, and I find that over the years, no matter who you are, unintentionally or intentionally, it seems that you have made big and small mistakes, as Liu Zhaorong said, easy forgiveness is not enough to convince everyone, at this time, they will begin to liquidate one by one, and today they will be taken together and convicted together!"
