Chapter XXXVI: Punishment

Cui'er's eyes were closed, and two tears loomed in the corners of her eyes.

I saw her shouting loudly: "Enough! I did all this, and it has nothing to do with him! ”

The Queen Mother couldn't help but cover her ears, with an impatient look on her face, Mama Chen had a bad heart, and immediately stepped forward and pointed at Cui'er and said, "Bold Cui'er, dare to roar Cining Palace, don't kneel down quickly!" ”

Cui'er didn't seem to hear her words, she only turned her head, looked at Li Chen with a sad smile on her face, and said, "Don't cover it up for me anymore, Brother Li, you are a skilled imperial doctor, why do you want to practice yourself like this for me?" ”

Everyone couldn't understand why Cui'er said this, and Li Chenxiu couldn't help but be stunned when she looked at her.

saw Cui'er kneeling down in front of Shang Kelan with a "plop", and said desolately: "Concubine Chen, what you expected is good, it is indeed Concubine Ning who was murdered by the slave maid." ”

Concubine Ning clenched the champa tightly, her face stopped crying, she looked at Cui'er with a stunned expression, and said in disbelief: "Cui'er...... Is it really you? ”

Immediately, she hated iron and said to Cui'er: "This palace treats you well, why do you want to frame this palace like this?" ”

Cui'er cried: "Niangniang, the slave maid ate the wrong thing that day, and the abdominal pain did not stop, Brother Li felt sorry for the slave maid, so he wrote a prescription containing poppy husks to the slave maid, but the slave maid was clumsy, and accidentally gave the slave maid the medicine she drank and your fetal medicine to the wrong one, and it just so happened that you ate another piece of the pastry sent by Concubine Chen. ”

"The slave is afraid that you will find out about this, and she will not even have the opportunity to go out of the palace to live with Brother Li in the future, so she put the remaining poppy shells on the Yunzhi cake to blame Concubine Chen's ......."

In this way, it seems that this Cui'er did it unintentionally.

In the face of her miserable cry, Shang Kelan was unmoved.

She looked at Cui'er condescendingly, a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes were obviously smiling, but there was a chill that penetrated people.

Cui'er swallowed her saliva in fear, trembling with fear, not pretending, but the Concubine Chen in front of her gave her a sense of death-like threat.

The Queen Mother didn't expect that the murder of the dragon heir was a farce caused by a small palace maid, and she immediately rubbed her eyebrows with a headache.

The queen hurriedly got up and rubbed her shoulders and persuaded: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, you have to inform Your Majesty about this matter and let Your Majesty deal with it?" ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately snorted coldly, and raised her eyes to look at the people in the hall: "Since Concubine Chen has been the biggest victim from beginning to end, then the punishment of Cui'er will be decided by Concubine Chen!" ”

Saying that, the Queen Mother waved her hand and said with an ugly face: "Mama Chen, help the mourning family to go back to the dormitory to rest for a while, the mourning family's headache is committed again!" ”

Mama Chen didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly responded: "The slave obeys the order!" ”

Then, the Queen Mother let go of the queen's hand and let Mama Chen help her to the palace.

As soon as the Queen Mother left, all the concubines and concubines also hurriedly got up and saluted: "The concubines send off the Queen Mother!" ”

After the queen mother left, the queen sat back in her place, and said gently to Shang Kelan: "Concubine Chen, you have been aggrieved in this matter, since the queen mother has spoken, you will deal with Cui'er, and this palace is here to give you a witness." ”

Shang Kelan's expression remained unchanged, and she curtsied to the queen quietly: "Then the concubine will thank the queen mother." ”

Then, she looked at Cui'er again and said: "Since you have a deep relationship with Mrs. Li, everything is just a mistake made by you who were confused for a while, then this palace will let you go, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is inescapable. ”

Suddenly, everyone in the hall couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this punishment!

Even Concubine Ning's eyes flashed with incomprehension, Concubine Chen let Cui'er go so easily?

Concubine Hua, who had been watching the excitement for a long time, couldn't help but look at Concubine Chen in surprise and said, "Sister Concubine Chen, it's so simple that you let this Cui'er go?" What about Imperial Physician Li? What will you do? ”

Shang Kelan looked at Imperial Physician Li, and her words were no longer as sharp as when she confronted him before, only to see that after thinking about it carefully, she said: "Imperial Physician Li didn't report it, and Sister Ning, who was almost harmed, couldn't keep the dragon heir in her womb, so she had to be severely punished." ”

"Just for the sake of him and Cui'er's true affection, the palace will punish Imperial Doctor Li for demoting the third grade, and punish him for one year, and he will not be allowed to participate in the promotion assessment of Tai Hospital within one year!"

Li Chenxiu was originally kneeling on the ground, and he was already ready to be given death by Shang Kelan, but he didn't expect to be punished by Concubine Chen!

If she is punished lightly, Li Chenxiu will not be able to participate in the promotion assessment within a year; If she is punished heavily, the crime of not reporting and murdering the dragon heir is enough for him to connect the nine clans!

Such a punishment that is neither light nor severe, such an open-minded Concubine Chen, is different from what Concubine Ning and Cui'er said in his ear.

Soon, Li Chenxiu lowered his head, concealed the complicated gaze in his eyes, and said respectfully: "Weichen, thank you Concubine Chen for your sin!" ”

Cui'er also reacted, she only felt that she had walked away from the ghost gate now, and her whole heart was beating fast.

She cried with joy, and kowtowed to Concubine Chen excitedly: "Thank you, Niangniang!" Slave and maid Xie Chen's grace not to kill! ”

It's just ten years in the Xinzheku, as long as people are still alive, then there is still hope!

Living in this palace, what people fear most is to die, and when they die, there is nothing.

After Shang Kelan announced her punishment for these two people, even the queen's eyes flashed with a flash of surprise, but if she didn't look closely, she wouldn't have noticed this strange emotion in the queen's eyes.

And Shang Kelan also turned around and smiled at the queen, and said, "The queen, is the punishment of the concubine okay?" ”

The queen smiled and said dignified and gentle: "Sister Concubine Chen has her own reasons, since the matter is dealt with, then the sisters will go back first, and the palace will also go back to the palace to rest." ”

"The concubine sends the queen mother!"

The queen opened her mouth, and the concubines stayed soon, and after the queen went out with Taoxiang's hand, these concubines also helped their palace maids away.

Occasionally, a few good concubines walked together, discussing with each other about Concubine Chen and Concubine Ning.

Although the explanation given by Cui'er is very reasonable, there are still many loopholes in it, no matter how you look at it, this is not like a big palace maid who has served Concubine Ning for many years.

And the two chamberlains also came up and took Li Chenxiu and Cui'er down.

Concubine Hua also complained "boring", and then took Meizi's hand and left here.

Suddenly, only Concubine Ning and Concubine Chen were left in the main hall.

Concubine Ning got up and looked at Shang Kelan with a gloomy face, just when she was about to pass by Shang Kelan, Concubine Ning sneered and said, "Sister is lucky, she can save the day every time!" ”

Shang Kelan was unmoved, and said with a faint smile: "I will send my sister a word, and I will harm others and myself." ”

Gardenia helped Shang Kelan and looked at Concubine Ning vigilantly, for fear that Concubine Ning would accidentally fall on Shang Kelan and make some accusations of murdering the dragon heir.

Concubine Ning just looked stunned, and then left here with a gloomy face!
