"There is such a big scandal in the concubine's mother's family, and the concubine is ashamed and implores the queen mother to punish her." As she spoke, Concubine Huo Xian knelt down on her knees.

Empress Yao scolded secretly in her heart: pretending.

If you want to say that in this palace, who Queen Yao dislikes the most, except for Concubine Lin, is Concubine Huo Xian. I hate Concubine Lin because she is favored and Queen Yao is jealous. As for why she hates Concubine Huo Xian, it is because Queen Yao thinks that Concubine Huo Xian is used to pretending, pretending to be gentle and polite, but in fact, her ambition is greater than anyone else.

For example, now, Concubine Huo Xian pleaded guilty, would Empress Dowager Yao really punish her for her mother's affairs?

Of course not.

Unless Empress Dowager Yao looks at Concubine Huo Xian very unpleasantly, how many years has Concubine Huo Xian been in the palace, and the affairs of her mother's family have long had nothing to do with her. As soon as Concubine Huo Xian came, she asked the Empress Dowager Yao to kneel, obviously pretending to be pitiful, so that the Empress Dowager Yao would not be angry with her.

Sure enough, I saw Empress Dowager Yao say: "Okay, Concubine Xian, get up, sit down and talk." The mourning family is not an indiscriminate person, and your mother's affairs have nothing to do with you. ”

"The Empress Dowager Shengming, the concubine Xie Empress Dowager Longen." Concubine Huo Xian saluted and thanked her in a proper manner, and then sat down at the lower hand, just facing the queen. Concubine Huo Xian smiled softly at Empress Yao, Empress Yao gave her a roll of her eyes, she was not an emperor, and it was useless to smile at her.

"Concubine Xian, you came just in time, how to deal with Miss Huo Er, the emperor threw the problem to the mourning family, and the mourning family couldn't think of it for a while, so it was better for you to come up with ideas for the mourning family." Empress Dowager Yao took a sip of tea and said lightly.

Concubine Huo Xian's face was embarrassed, "It's about the concubine's family, the concubine really doesn't dare to talk much, the punishment is light because the concubine is favoritism, and the heavy punishment is the concubine's cold-bloodedness, the concubine is really embarrassed, and I ask the queen mother to be sympathetic to the concubine." ”

Empress Dowager Yao didn't really ask Concubine Huo Xian to set the punishment, but she just tried Concubine Huo Xian's bottom.

After getting Concubine Huo Xian's answer, Empress Dowager Yao could only say that Empress Yao might really not be suitable for the deep palace.

How to deal with Huo Zhirou, Empress Dowager Yao already knew in her heart, "Concubine Xian, your mother's second Miss Huo Er has been raised crookedly, and there is no help." ”

The implication is that waiting for Huo Zhirou's punishment will never be light, and there will be no Huo Zhirou in the Huo family from now on.

Concubine Huo Xian sighed lightly, "The concubine knows that the child has been pampered since he was a child and failed to discipline him well, so he took the wrong path and never looked back." The concubine had a request, and asked the queen mother to grant it. ”

"Say, what request?" Empress Dowager Yao asked.

Concubine Huo Xian said: "The concubine's mother's family has suffered such a big change, and the people have withered, in the final analysis, it is actually the concubine's brother who can't figure it out, and begged the queen mother to allow the concubine to leave the palace for half a day, and the concubine wants to persuade the Marquis of Jingbei and appease Mrs. Hou." ”

"This is human nature, you go, mourn the family and make the decision, promise you." Empress Dowager Yao nodded in response.

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Concubine Huo Xian hurriedly thanked her.

Empress Dowager Yao drafted the decree, so she asked the chamberlain to pass the decree, and Concubine Huo Xian walked out of the palace with the chamberlain.

After Concubine Huo Xian left, Queen Yao hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, Concubine Huo Xian said that she was here to ask for guilt, but in fact, it was just for show, she knew that you would not punish her, she put on a look of understanding the rules, just to show you." Mother, don't be deceived by her. ”

Empress Dowager Yao shook her head helplessly, "She is abiding by the palace rules, what's wrong with being pretentious, do you think that you sit on the phoenix car all day long, and the concubines below ask you for peace, isn't it pretentious?" ”

"People are pretending, and that is also knowledgeable and reasonable, distinguishing between right and wrong. Look at you again, where do you have the appearance of a virtuous queen...... Forget it, the mourning family is too lazy to talk about you. ”

"Queen Mother, the concubine is not unvirtuous, but the concubine doesn't like Concubine Huo Xian." Empress Yao felt that she was okay with the other concubines, but this Concubine Huo Xian, she really didn't like it at all.

"She looks virtuous and graceful on the surface, but she is very ambitious and scary behind her back, and she and the third prince have made Heng'er a stumbling block."

Empress Yao always held a grudge against Concubine Huo Xian and Chu Li for calculating Chu Heng, although she also tortured Concubine Huo Xian for a long time afterwards, and let Concubine Huo Xian kneel every day, and her knees were almost useless. But Empress Yao was always angry in her heart, and after kneeling and healing, Concubine Huo Xian was alive again.

Empress Dowager Yao lowered her eyes and said: "The concubines in this palace, it is impossible to say that they have no ambitions, especially the concubines who gave birth to the prince. In the affairs of the court, don't get involved with you as a harem lady, you can worry about Heng'er's marriage when you have time. ”

"The marriage between Heng'er and Yuruo has already been decided, and the date is good, just waiting for the spring festival next year, and the others are also in preparation, the queen mother can rest assured, Heng'er's marriage is a big event, and the concubines will be taken care of one by one."

Empress Dowager Yao was finally a little relieved, "Your son, you worry about yourself, I don't want to ask an old woman, but there is one point, if Yuruo has also been pampered and grown up, you go back and mention your sister-in-law, don't let the Yao family become the second Huo family." ”

A daughter like Huo Zhirou, Empress Dowager Yao didn't want to see that their Yao family also had one.

"Especially in the royal family, what to do and what not to do, you must have a ruler in your heart, otherwise if something really happens, the mourning family can't protect it and won't protect it."

Empress Yao hurriedly nodded in response, "Yes, Queen Mother, the concubine will mention some sisters-in-law." Or the concubine sent a nurturing grandmother to raise the girl of the Yao family well. ”

Empress Dowager Yao loves to listen to this, and after sitting for so long, she always nodded with satisfaction, "Your idea is good, if the girls of the Yao family want to marry well, they will learn that they are virtuous and dignified, and they will pick a few stern grandmothers from your palace or the palace of the mourning family, and raise the girls well, and if they marry in the future, they can't let them lose the face of the Yao family." ”

……

Concubine Huo Xian entered the gate of the Marquis Mansion in Jingbei with the decree, and the Empress Dowager issued a decree, and everyone knelt to receive the decree. When the waiter finished reading the edict, Huo Zhirou's face turned pale, she wanted to speak, but she was quickly gagged, and she could only scream.

The Queen Mother did not sentence Huo Zhirou to be beheaded, but gave her a ordination in the Pure Heart Nunnery.

Pure heart, pure heart, pure heart. It was a place for erring women, and most of the women who were ordained there were sinful people, so they were chained to their hands and feet after they became monks, and they were not allowed to leave the nunnery for the rest of their lives unless there was an amnesty. Moreover, after becoming a monk, he had to work every day, otherwise he would have no food to eat, and he would have to starve and freeze, which was more like a prison than a nunnery.

Huo Zhirou, a young lady who was raised by thousands of pets since childhood, was punished to go to the Pure Heart Nunnery, which was actually more uncomfortable than death.

The Queen Mother Yizhi didn't say that she was going to take people away immediately, and the chamberlain was also a person with vision, Concubine Huo Xian was still there, and she locked up her niece and took her niece away in front of Concubine Huo Xian, which inevitably lost her face.

"Bengong will say a few words to her, and my father-in-law will go to the side to have a cup of tea and rest." Concubine Huo Xian opened her mouth, and the chamberlain naturally wouldn't give her this face.

When there were no outsiders, Zhou ripped open the cloth in Huo Zhirou's mouth.

"Mother, I don't want to go to the Pure Heart Nunnery, I don't want to go, woo woo......" Huo Zhirou cried miserably, and begged Concubine Huo Xian, "Auntie, aunt, you help Rou'er, haven't you always loved Rou'er the most?" ”

Concubine Huo Xian sighed, "Rou'er, it's not my aunt who said you, you made too much trouble this time." ”

"Auntie, no, Auntie, I was deceived too, really." After the accident, Zhou thoroughly investigated the people around Huo Zhirou, checked and checked, and found the little maid named Cui'er, the little maid was terrible, she talked from Hancui, and instigated Huo Zhirou to attack Huo Sijin without a trace. It's just that before Zhou had time to torture Cui'er, Cui'er had already hanged herself first.

Zhou investigated further, and learned that Cui'er had a childhood sweetheart's brother next door, who made an appointment to marry when he became an adult, but he didn't want to think that a year ago, the brother next door died unexpectedly at the hands of Huo Zhirou, and Cui'er approached Huo Zhirou, in fact, to avenge her lover.

The revenge was avenged, so he simply hanged himself.

However, none of this matters now, and there is no way to change the decree. Concubine Huo Xian asked Huo Zhirou to stay for a while, but in fact, it would only be to give the Zhou family a little face. And Concubine Huo Xian herself came here to chat with Jingbei Hou.

Concubine Huo Xian and the brothers and sisters of Jingbei Hou chatted alone, and the people were far away, but in less than half a cup of tea, there was a dispute inside......
