Emperor Chu's punishment can be said to have given Luo Xuanran a dismount in front of everyone, how did Luo Xuanran punish Kite Dai just now, and Emperor Chu is now punishing ink painting.

Seeing that the ink painting did not move, Emperor Chu challenged Luo Xuanran: "Queen, is this how you manage the harem on weekdays, and a little palace maid doesn't even listen to me?" ”

Mo Hua didn't dare to delay, and took off her coat in front of everyone, and as soon as she took off her coat, she felt a biting chill. Mo Hua stood up tremblingly, and slowly walked to the stone path outside the pavilion and knelt down, just where Kite had knelt just now.

But in an instant, the person who was punished changed from a kite, to an ink painting.

Looking at the ink painting kneeling in the cold wind with only her underwear, no one said a word for her, and no one put on a coat for her.

Of all the people here, only the queen could intercede for the ink painting, but the queen did not dare.

After punishing the ink painting, Emperor Chu looked at Luo Xuanran, and seemed to have just found that Luo Xuanran was still kneeling on the ground: "Why is the queen kneeling, get up." ”

As soon as Luo Xuanran stood up, he heard Emperor Chu continue: "The affairs of the harem are indeed complicated, and it is inevitable that the queen will be a little embarrassed if she does everything herself, but no matter what, there can be no such mistakes, it has been a long time since the winter, and there are concubines who don't even have winter clothes." If the queen is weak, Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian are idle, and it is not a big deal to help the queen. ”

Luo Xuanran listened to Emperor Chu's words, and almost knelt down again: "Your Majesty, this time it is indeed the negligence of the concubines." But Sister Shufei and Sister Xian have always liked to be quiet, if the size of this palace is suitable, they will trouble the two sisters, but I am afraid that the two sisters will be upset. ”

"Do you think that at that time, will the queen be upset, or will the concubines and concubines be upset?"

Luo Xuanran didn't dare to answer Emperor Chu's words, Emperor Chu turned the wrench on his thumb, and finally only said: "You have been in the harem for so many years, and you have not made any big mistakes, I believe you again." As for Wan Baolin, Gonggong Li should worry about it more. ”

Gonggong Li hurriedly responded: "The slave obeys the order." ”

Emperor Chu saw that Yuan Dai was standing there without any reaction, his eyes deepened a little, and Gonggong Li reminded Yuan Dai: "Wan Baolin, don't hurry up and thank you!" ”

Iris stepped forward and knelt down in a proper manner: "Thank you for the emperor's care." ”

"Nothing else to say to me?" Emperor Chu asked.

Emperor Chu's meaning was already obvious, and Lianzhi couldn't help but look at Iris Dai, wanting to see how Iris Dai would choose.

"It's enough for the concubine to get the emperor's care, don't dare to think about it." After Kita Dai said this, the people present had different thoughts, and Kita Dai wasted an opportunity to regain favor.

Emperor Chu was not annoyed: "It's cold, everyone go back early, don't get cold." ”

Emperor Chu took the lead in getting up and leaving, and everyone saluted to send Emperor Chu off.

Wen Zhiyu untied the big dan on her body, draped it on Lianzhi's body, and took advantage of the effort to tidy up the big dan for her, and whispered in her ear: "Father and Emperor witnessed the whole process today, you did a good job." Also, wear more next time, the winter in Xichu is very cold! ”

Wen Zhiyu smoothed out the folds on the big coat, and then turned around and left after Emperor Chu.

The queen looked at the ink painting kneeling on the ground, and finally turned around and went back to the palace.

Iris Dai walked to Lianzhi and Wen Yunxi to thank the two: "Thank you two princesses today." As she spoke, she was about to take off the fox fur on her body and return it to Lianzhi, but Lianzhi stopped her movements: "This fox fur is very flattering to you, so you can wear it." ”

"Thank you, Princess Wanyang."

"It's cold outside, Wan Baolin should go back early."

Iris didn't say anything more, and went back to Taoyuan Pavilion.

After this incident, Lianzhi and Wen Yunxi were not in the mood to appreciate the plums, so they went back first. On the way back, Wen Yunxi thought of Concubine Shu's advice: "The concubine said before, try not to get involved in Wan Baolin's affairs, today's incident reaches the ears of the concubine, I am afraid that the concubine will be scolded to death." ”

"Didn't I get involved?" Lianzhi comforted, "In fact, in this palace, multiple friends are always better than multiple enemies. ”

"You're right, the queen doesn't like us in the first place, even if we offend her for Wan Baolin, it's not like that. But I still admire Wan Baolin, she has fallen into such a situation, and she still refuses to give in to her father. ”

Wan Baolin looked soft, but in fact, he had a strong temperament. Today, it seems that whether it is for the sake of Concubine Xian's face or not, Emperor Chu still has some affection for Wan Baolin, but there are too many concubines in this harem, who knows how long this affection can be maintained if Wan Baolin does not cherish it? ”

"After today's incident, at least Wan Baolin's situation will be better than before, and what happens in the future will depend on her own creation." Wen Yunxi thought of the purpose of going out today, and sighed, "I originally came out to enjoy the plum blossoms today, but now I am not in the mood at all." ”

"Didn't you say that you are more interested in appreciating plum blossoms on a snowy day, and I will accompany you out next time."

"Hmm."

When they reached the fork in the road, the two separated and went back to the palace.

Not long after Yuan Dai returned to Taoyuan Pavilion, Xiao Quanzi came over with someone to deliver something.

Although Emperor Chu asked Gonggong Li to do this, but Yuan Dai did not return to favor, so Gonggong Li naturally would not come in person, so he sent Xiaoquanzi over.

Watching the little eunuch put down his things and withdrew, Xiao Quanzi spoke: "Wan Baolin, you wasted a great opportunity today. ”

At this time, only Xiao Quanzi and Iris Dai remained, and Xiao Quanzi had something to say.

It was not surprising that Xiao Quanzi would say something like this: "This is my own choice, and it has nothing to do with others." ”

"Kite, you'll regret it."

"I thought you'd never call me by my name again in your life."

"Kites!"

"I always knew what I wanted, when I was favored before, I was terrified every day, but after falling out of favor, even if I was made difficult by the queen in every way, I didn't feel a little sad, and my heart was very stable. Even if I regret it, it will be a matter for the future, if I can't even live well now, how can I talk about the future? ”

"Kite, sometimes I really wish you could be selfish." Xiao Quanzi left after speaking, and Yuan Dai looked at the back of Xiao Quanzi leaving, her face was no longer cold just now, and her eyes were full of unsolvable sorrow.

As for the ink painting, when she knelt for a long time, her whole body was already frozen, and the queen sent Tingqin to take her back to Weiyang Palace to ask the imperial doctor for treatment, which saved a life.

The punishment of ink painting is to punish the queen, and the people in the harem originally had some uncontrollable thoughts because of this incident, and Wen Miqing was also restrained by the queen and could not act recklessly, so Lianzhi had a very easy time during this time.

Soon, it will be the end of the year, and it will be the time when the first heavy snow of the winter will come.

Su Yue closed the door immediately after entering the house: "It started snowing in the middle of the night last night, and it hasn't stopped until now, it's really too cold this day." ”

Su Qing was looking at Lianzhi practicing calligraphy, and when she heard Su Yue's words, she replied casually: "When the snow melts, the weather will be even cooler." ”

Su Ying sorted out her clothes on the side and took over the conversation: "I heard that since the beginning of winter, many palace maids and eunuchs have fallen ill, and it began to snow again last night, and the weather is cold again, so you must remind the people in the palace to wear thicker clothes and don't get sick." ”

Su Yue nodded: "Now that it is close to the end of the year, the palace is very busy, and I see that the queen is even more busy." ”

Lianzhi put down the brush in his hand and sat on the couch to rest: "The queen lost face some time ago, and although she is busy now, it is also an opportunity for her to rebuild her majesty." The emperor said that she couldn't manage the harem well, but this time she must have done everything herself, and she didn't dare to make any mistakes. ”

"I think there are a lot of people waiting to see her jokes." Su Yue replied.

Su Ying suddenly remembered something: "Princess, a few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to talk about the Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet, and the princess will also participate this year." ”

"Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet?" Lianzhi thought that it was almost Chinese New Year's Eve, and she had a headache, she really didn't want to deal with those people.

"Princess Yunxi has been asking you to enjoy the plum blossoms on a snowy day before, and I guess it should come in the next two days." Su Yue reminded.

Lian Zhi shook his head: "This year's snow came late, it was the end of the year, and it was a time when there were many people, and Concubine Shu would not let Yunxi go out at this time." ”
