Since the ancestors of the Chu family laid down the country, they established the belief of governing the society with benevolence and propriety, and the royal ancestors have inherited this belief for generations, but not only used this ritual to govern the world, but also used it in the backyard, and treated the concubines and concubines of the clan, and the royal family also gave them the greatest respect.

In this palace, if it weren't for any of the concubines who actually committed such heinous and unforgivable crimes as hurting people's lives or treason, their mistakes would almost all be dealt with the most lenient and generous attitude, and no one would easily move the death penalty out to measure what they committed.

Not to mention the old people in the past, there is a person who is an old example now, that year Chu Zikai was still the prince in the East Palace, and was forced by Emperor Yuan to welcome the four concubines into the palace on the same day, Liu Zhaorong, who was still the prince Liangdi at that time, did not hesitate to take the risk of giving Chu Zikai a tiger and wolf medicine for the sake of favor.

After this matter was exposed, there was a lot of noise, and in the end, Emperor Yuan still decided to deal with it leniently, but it was just for show, and Liu Zhaorong was grounded for half a month, and then it was over.

And the crime committed by Yu Zhao today, from ancient times to the present, I can't find an example for reference, the severity and severity of this crime are really not easy to weigh, but the series of self-punishment actions from her own mouth are indeed full of weight.

The expected preemptive strike, Yu Zhao's move caught off guard and occupied the room for controversy, smashing everyone speechless. The group was ready to speak, but they were completely disrupted by Yu Zhao's humble and submissive attitude, and began to be cautious.

Hesitantly, they didn't know whether to continue to take advantage of the victory to pursue Hu Chaoman and add another fire, in order to seek a chance to trample Yu Zhao even worse, or to follow these words and accept them when they see it, only rely on these punishments, and kill her prestige first.

The people who wanted to kill Yu Zhao, such as Liu Zhaorong and others, naturally didn't want to just give up, but for a while they were gagged by Yu Zhao's momentum of pleading guilty, in a dilemma, they couldn't help clenching their fists, carefully searching for the missing stubble in their hearts, racking their brains to think of ways to make Yu Zhao's head hurt more, but they never came up with an idea.

The stalemate, another quarter of an hour passed, and still no one came forward to say anything inappropriate, and no one responded to Yu Zhao's words, and the charcoal basin in the hall was clearly burning hot, but the atmosphere was really cold to the extreme.

"Your Majesty has arrived—"

Finally heard the voice of Feng Yun announcing the return of the royal car in a sharp voice outside, and the concubines missed the opportunity and beat their chests secretly, but no matter how unwilling they were in their hearts, they had to put it down first, and they all got up and knelt down to greet them.

"Concubines greet Your Majesty's ......"

Since the moment today's incident was initiated, Yu Zhao never thought that she would be able to escape unharmed, even if it was expected, after Chu Zikai came back, she would definitely take some measures to protect her, she had already made up her mind that she was unwilling to accept it, and she was ready to be punished and settle the grievances of the people, and she was not afraid of the many difficulties and sarcasms of this group of people.

But the taste of facing the wind and waves alone is not comfortable, at this moment, seeing Chu Zikai back, in an instant, the helplessness in Yu Zhao's heart disappeared, and he couldn't help but have a sense of peace of mind that had survived the catastrophe, and while getting up to salute him, he couldn't help but bow his head and breathe a long sigh of relief.

At the moment when Chu Zikai stepped into the palace gate, the concubines' exquisitely cultivated face changing technique was once again brilliantly manifested, and the aggressive demeanor of Yu Zhao's faction was as if the evil ghost had gone up and lost his mind.

Now that this true dragon son has arrived, all the ghost and demonic qi have been dispelled away by Chu Zikai's awe-inspiring righteousness, and they can restore their dignity again, with praises such as respect, humility and courtesy written on their faces.

"It's just that I wore the wrong bedclothes, and I took it for her to change into, why did I provoke such a big opinion from you to Concubine Yi?"

The treasure in his heart was in trouble, Chu Zikai had already learned the news from the palace people on the road, and hurried back, after stepping into the palace gate, he couldn't spare his eyes to appreciate the face-changing trick that was being staged by a group of people on the ground, but he could smell the smell of gunpowder that had not dispersed in the hall, and he was only concerned about feeling sorry for his heart and liver and flesh, and he must have been wronged, and walked straight to Yu Zhao, saying as he walked:

"If you have to be so calculated, if there are so many places in the palace, except for the Son of Heaven Palace, if the rest of the places have dragon patterns, it will be a sin? Should the palace people who made crowns for me in the Inner Mansion also have their heads killed in order to be worthy of the crime of trespassing? The dragons and phoenixes carved on the beams and pillars in your hall must not be kept, and they must be burned clean together to meet the etiquette! ”

The tone of the Son of Heaven was unhappy and the mood was not good, the concubines did not dare to touch their heads, they immediately admitted their cowardice, and quickly knelt down and said that they didn't dare, and they leaned down uneasily, so they didn't dare to raise their heads again, only Concubine Ling admitted that Fang Fang had just defended Yu Zhao's actions, which should be regarded as a matter of conforming to Chu Zikai's wishes, at this time, she had the courage to raise her head and echo Chu Zikai's words:

"What Your Majesty said is exact, the concubine also persuaded the sisters in this way, look at it with a different eye, and the mistaken wearing of bed clothes, how can it not reflect the deep affection between you and Concubine Yi's sister, it represents affection in time, why do you need to be so severe, you sisters are really making a big fuss, and please Concubine Yi's sister doesn't have to blame herself so much, it's enough to copy the book as a punishment, why bother to torture yourself with such a heavy punishment."

"It's not that it's a gamble......" Yu Zhao raised his vigilance, and hurriedly corrected the inappropriate words used in Concubine Ling's words, and said clearly: "I was wrong, those punishments are used to warn myself and others, don't make mistakes again, I sincerely repent, I don't think it's torture." ”

"Punishment? What is the punishment? ”

Hearing this conversation between the two of them, Chu Zikai suddenly lifted his spirits, walked towards Yu Zhao's position, and before he got closer, his hand stretched out to her first, wanting to hold her hand, his tone was anxious and puzzled, and asked:

"Why didn't you wait for me to come back and make a decision? It's just that you are wearing a piece of clothing, or I have allowed you, if they want to be guilty, let them take you and me together, my crime is still before you, why are you so anxious to punish yourself first? ”

"Your Majesty's words are not true...... "Now that the limelight has not passed, the situation is very unfavorable, Yu Zhao is cautious, thinking that the more low-key he should be, the better, seeing that Chu Zikai's hand was stretched out again in front of everyone's eyes, Yu Zhao hurriedly pretended to retreat and give way, dodged to the side, and said softly:

"I think I can't afford the love of Your Majesty, as a royal wife, I have the honor to serve the monarch, and I have been a great honor, I should have remembered that I have the responsibility to admonish the monarch, but I lost my duty first, and I exceeded the palace rules, and I should have been punished."
