44 Suddenly
The crowd below was silent, staring at me with expressions that were indescribable.
I withstood two or three drops of sweat that had been sunburned, so I did nothing and pointed to the sky with one hand, looking forward to looking up at the scorching sun. "Today's wind and sunshine are good!"
Brother Jue said: "The upper room is not worth the tile? β
I approved from the bottom of my heart: "Good poetry, good poetry." β
"Poetry is good. But men are bold! Hurry down. "When Brother Jue was angrily reprimanded, my heart trembled.
The big eunuch also shouted at the bottom of his throat: "Niangniang, come down quickly, Niangniang." β
I was embarrassed to find a wooden ladder and slowly stepped down. There is a crowd of people underneath. lest I stumble under the emperor's nose.
Luckily, the ladder was sturdy enough and my steps were steady enough. There is no common foot stumbling, leaning, and falling from a high altitude to save the hero. Stand on the ground properly.
As soon as my feet fell, I was knocked on my forehead by Brother Jue, and I hurriedly covered it in pain. He reprimanded: "Why do you climb so high even if you know the pain? What should I do if I fall? Are all the attendants in this palace dead? Let you climb so high with a concubine! β
Obviously scolded me, but he was really harshly reprimanding the many servants present. I can't say more. The inner attendant knelt down and bowed to a large area. All of them are anxious and restrained, cramped and uneasy. He didn't say much, but he didn't do much. But the momentum of being born as an emperor is surging, and even I am a little in a hurry.
Knowing the seriousness of the situation, he stood nervously by his side.
Without saying a word, he swept over everyone in the room, and finally moved over to me. asked, "Do you want to leave?" β
I was stunned: "Your Majesty has thought too much? "Heaven and earth can be learned, although I want to go, but I definitely won't make such a big fanfare.
Not only did his words fail to dispel his doubts, but instead urged his face to become even more ugly, and there was a faint tendency for the mountain rain to come. In the next second, the punishment will be smashed like a person.
I smiled at him flatteringly, "How could Your Majesty think that." I just thought it was time to fix the windows! β
He remained silent. Flicked his sleeves angrily, looked at me with a fierce look, and left. The chief eunuch and the attendants hurriedly followed, and the group of people left quickly.
When I was a little less nervous, the big eunuch turned back and ordered: "Your Majesty has a decree, and the maids and maids of the Ning Palace are ordered to go to the criminal division to receive the punishment by themselves, and the concubine Niangniang is grounded for half a month, and she needs to repent." β
I wailed, "Not really! Hongu has done something wrong again! β
The big eunuch said, "Our family doesn't know. However, Concubine Niangniang relaxes, Your Majesty is just worried about you, and has no other thoughts. Please also ask Concubine Niangniang to receive His Majesty's kindness, don't let it down. If you really have doubts, Your Majesty hasn't gone far. You rushed to chase it, and you can still run into it. β
I immediately picked up my skirt and chased after it. Su Ning Gong didn't take a few steps, and seeing that he was still walking leisurely in front of him, he hurriedly grabbed him with a pounce and dragged it, and asked urgently: "Good punishment, why are you grounded." I didn't do anything wrong. Occasionally, there is a mistake on the roof. I don't care, you quickly withdraw your life! β
He didn't turn around, and he didn't stop walking on his feet. I dragged the rear and walked around.
He didn't want to talk to me, and didn't bother to answer my questions. I let go of my hand and walked quickly in front of him, stretched out my arms to block it, and said, "I opened this road, I planted this tree, and if you want to pass from here, you have to withdraw the punishment!" β
He smiled rarely, frowned fiercely for a while, and said, "If you dare to say such things in the palace, sooner or later your bandit nest will be cleaned up." So that you understand, don't do what you shouldn't do. β
I nodded obediently, "Good, good!" It was my mistake in going to the room! β
He said, "Then be punished obediently, so that I can see your true feelings." β
I was in a hurry, "I was wrong, I repent." But if you punish me in this way, you are wrong. Because the main reason is that you are worried about me, and now you have locked me in the palace and punished my chamberlain. They have a grudge in their hearts that they don't treat me well, I can't go out and be depressed and depressed, and if I have symptoms over time, won't it make you even more worried, so you can't punish me. β
"I can't punish you?" He raised his voice slightly, and repeated, "I can't punish you?" β
"Yes, yes, yes. Absolutely! "I'm accommodating and patient." Your Majesty can punish you however you wantβ" but even more pitiful, "It's just sad, I've just been scared on the roof, and I'm going to have to be punished when I come down." This palace is really, woo woo. β
He saw through my pretense at a glance, and put a finger against my lips and said, "I can forgive you, but those people can't." This is the last tolerance, don't plead. Otherwise, I'll give you another month. β
After that, no matter how I pleaded with a dead face, he never let go. Only once did he open his mouth, but he smacked me twice in the face very excessively.
Xin Lai and Qiao'er were both implicated, and the two received different punishments in the criminal division.
Xin Lai was beaten fifteen, his buttocks were dark and blue at noon, and he had to grin his teeth and scream when he touched the bench for a while. Qiao'er was beaten for thirty, she was a woman, more delicate and tender than Xinlai, and she walked back slowly from the criminal division, not crying out of pain or sadness, except for her pale face, she couldn't even see the signs of punishment.
If I hadn't noticed that her pace was disordered, and I pulled her pants to take a look, I would have known her miserable condition.
Nowhere is good on the buttocks, the flesh is festering, oozing blood. The stick was somehow beaten. Even the lotus-like white and tender thighs were also involved, and there were many swelling and bruises.
I was distressed to watch, and I felt remorseful in my heart, what to do with the skylight in the upper room. It's so much so coincidental.
Xin Lai knew Qiao'er's misery, and never cried out for half of the pain. She took good care of Qiao'er every day, and it wasn't until a month later that Qiao'er's injuries got better. Scarred. But the scar can't be erased.
I felt even more guilty, and I didn't settle down for several nights.
The other attendants who served in the Suning Palace were all lighter, no more than ten battles. Xin Lai praised us for our good fortune, and if the emperor punishes others, dozens of battles are indispensable. Only we are lighter, and it is all thanks to my good. He's very good at making fun of suffering.
Qiao'er was injured, and she had to go in and out with me to participate in the audience, and the first few times were peaceful, but today's audience, Ning Guifei and my pure concubine of the same rank quarreled.
Concubine Chun has always been low-key and calm. No one could have thought of Concubine Ning's words, "Early death is not good fate, what does it have to do with the father of the palace." "Provoked.
With a wave of her jade arm, she swept all the porcelain cups and utensils on the desk to the ground, and the crisp cracking sound startled everyone present. Even the concubine of Emperor Shule didn't expect it, her hand shook, and the tea spilled out.
Concubine Chun looked at Concubine Ning Guifei with deep hatred, and said hatefully: "I don't know where my sister got such a big face." How can I not know the word regret! What would happen if I apologized to Jie Anhou in the spirit of heaven. Your father's deeds are heinous. Are you going to follow his footsteps too! β
