The queen's eyes were different when she looked at Chu Yue, although Chu Yue didn't say anything just now, the keen queen still noticed that the second prince was given to the queen mother to raise, and it had nothing to do with Chu Yue.

The second prince was sent away, but Wan Guifei didn't feel it, anyway, it wasn't her own child, and it was the same for whoever she gave it to raise.

But when she thought of what Qu Zhaoyi would be like without children, she couldn't help but be happy, what could be happier than suppressing her sisters?

Now that the matter of the second prince has been resolved, it is inevitable that Chu Yue will be a little redundant to stay here.

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing to do, the concubine will retire."

"Chu Cairen came just in time, I was about to reward Chu Cairen, this time to manage the store, Chu Cairen's shop is the most profitable, and it should be rewarded, Chu Cairen, what reward do you want?"

Chu Yue's first reaction was Qu Zhaoyi, I have to say that Qu Zhaoyi was quite accurate, and she had long known that the emperor was going to reward her, so she had already gone to her for asylum.

It was one thing to agree before, but now it's another thing, especially after seeing the injuries on the second prince's body, Chu Yue has become disgusted with this Qu Zhaoyi to a certain extent.

But Qu Zhaoyi is another matter, and the emperor's attitude is another matter.

This matter has been in trouble all morning, and the barbarian envoys have already stayed at the post house, and this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise it will lose the royal face.

The emperor stopped her, but he was afraid that he wanted to borrow her mouth and take this matter lightly.

After thinking about it, Chu Yue soon had an idea in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't dare to receive the reward alone, although the concubine's shop is the most profitable, but that's just a coincidence, and the other sisters are also working hard, no matter what the reason is, what the purpose, everyone wants to do their part for the emperor, it's better to reward together."

Feng Jixuan didn't answer, just looked at the queen and Wan Guifei.

"What does the queen mean?"

Of course, the queen's meaning is to punish it severely, if she puts it down this time, it will inevitably have a next time, and the next time she will not be so lucky.

However, the queen has been by the emperor's side for many years, and she understands the emperor's intentions best, and the royal face is the most important, so this matter can only be handled lightly.

"Your Majesty, Chu Cairen is right, the sisters in the harem use their own private treasury to fill the shop, but also to share the emperor's worries, although the approach is a little wrong, but the mind is still good after all, and the sisters in the house are also doing their best, and please ask the emperor to spare them in the hearts of the sisters."

Feng Jixuan lowered his eyes, making it impossible to see what he was thinking, and the invisible air pressure gradually lowered, making people feel depressed.

"What do you think?"

Concubine Wan stepped forward generously, "Your Majesty, the opinions of the concubines and the queen are the same, why bother hurting the feelings between the sisters for this matter?" ”

Chu Yue suddenly felt a gaze hit her, and she felt uneasy.

"What Sister Wan said is, the emperor

If he punished everyone in the harem in one fell swoop, wouldn't Sister Chu become the target of everyone, and how would Sister Chu get along with her sisters in the harem in the future! ”

Chu Yue's eyes were slightly cold, the queen was making enemies for her?

is a good queen, it is really difficult to deal with, in this way, the emperor exempted those mothers from punishment, but she doesn't think that these people will be grateful to her, and it would be good if she didn't hate herself.

Mama Yan taught her a truth, this harem woman can't be analyzed with normal thoughts.

The queen continued, "Moreover, the emperor's concubines are responsible for negligence in this matter, and the concubines should also be punished, and the emperor is also asked to surrender!" ”

Feng Jixuan looked at Wan Guifei coldly, and then said, "Queen, get up, you are not in good health, I don't blame you for this matter, Wan Guifei, are you guilty?" ”

From the time the queen came out to ask for guilt, Wan Guifei knew that this time it was inevitable that the emperor would punish her.

So gritted his teeth and stepped forward, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows her mistake, the queen is in poor health, and the affairs of the palace are handed over to the concubine, but there is such a big thing, but the concubine is unaware of it in advance, and the concubine is guilty of negligence, and asks the emperor to surrender." ”

"Hmph, it's good that you know."

Feng Jixuan snorted coldly, and then said, "Desheng, let the palace concubines outside go back, this time the matter is for the sake of Chu Cairen, I will spare them, let them go back and reflect on themselves, and I will not spare them next time." ”

"In addition, Wan Guifei has the responsibility of negligence, and will be fined for one year as a punishment, and Chu Cairen will be rewarded with a pair of jade Ruyi, ten pieces of silk, a pot of jewelry, and a thousand taels of gold."

One reward and one punishment seems fair, but in the eyes of those who care, it is extremely unfair.

Desheng was just about to turn around, but Feng Jixuan stopped him again, "Qu Zhaoyi, as the biological mother of the prince, should teach the prince well, but for her own selfishness, she disregarded the prince, how can such a woman be worthy of raising the prince, from now on, the second prince will be handed over to the queen mother to raise." ”

"Huh!"

Qu Zhaoyi, who was outside the hall, fainted directly when he heard this.

The expressions of the others were not very good either.

Moon Palace.

After returning from the Zhengqian Palace, Chu Yue's head hurt a little, and listening to the thank you gifts sent by the masters of the palaces outside, her heart sank again.

Now the concubines in each palace are afraid that they have resented her, and it will be even more difficult to survive in the harem in the future.

Linlang walked in with a bowl of Ningshen tea, "Cairen, your face is not very good, this is a bowl of Ningshen tea boiled in the small kitchen, go take a rest!" ”

Chu Yue had never drunk such a thing as Ningshen tea before, if he really had something on his mind and was upset, this Ningshen tea would not work.

But now, she wanted to drink it.

"Chu Xi and Rouge are still busy?"

"Now that the thank you gifts sent by the palaces have almost filled the treasury, Chu Xi and Rouge are registering, I don't think it will be busy until the evening, do you want to find two people?"

"It's not

, just ask casually, let the small kitchen make a little nourishing soup in the evening, this afternoon, the iron people can't stand it. ”

"The slave and maid have thanked the palace people of Yingyue Palace."

Chu Yue put down the Ning Shen Soup, looked at Linlang and suddenly laughed.

Linlang was a little inexplicable by Chu Yue's laughter, and her heart was also a little flustered, "Why do talented people look at me like this?" ”

"It's nothing, I just think you're smart, and it's a smart move for me to find you and keep you around."

Linlang smiled embarrassedly, "Being able to follow talented people is also a blessing for slaves." ”

Chu Yue smiled and didn't answer.

Linlang thought she didn't believe it, and got anxious, "Talented, what the slave and maid said is true, the slave and maid have been in the palace since they were children, and they are used to seeing the nobles of the harem, they often beat and scold the palace people, only the talented people regard our palace people as human beings, and the luckiest thing in this life is to follow a master like you." ”
