"The Queen Mother doesn't know, the concubines have never bullied any of the prince's concubines in the palace, but the concubines themselves have really been bullied by the side concubine Sun Yingru and those concubines enough."

"Oh? Is this really the case? The Queen Mother pretended to be slightly surprised.

"How dare I deceive the Queen Mother, since I married into the Five Princes' Mansion, although these concubines are not as good as some people have heard, it is impossible to be as close as sisters, but people respect me a foot and I respect people.

But although I treat them like this, these concubines don't have the slightest respect for me, originally they were afraid of my identity as a concubine, and they didn't dare to bully me, and they were safe and sound on weekdays.

Perhaps it was because of my good temperament that they had the courage to do so, and because the prince rarely favored me, they regarded me, the fifth princess, as a stumbling block for them, and began to calculate against me everywhere.

Originally, they were such small family women, and I didn't want to entangle with them more, not to mention that this would also lose my identity, so I could avoid it and let it go.

A few days ago, I even held myself out of my illness because of their calculations, and I closed my door all day long, thinking that this would get them a little empathy, until I was almost pushed into the water by them a few days ago, and I finally saw through them.

These people are born selfish and vicious, in order to succeed in the position can really be said to do everything, my generosity and kindness to them has no effect on them at all, so what can I do, only to change the previous nature so that they can get the punishment they deserve, let them know that there is a limit to my patience.

So I punished the Sun family who took the lead in murdering me, and locked her up in the firewood room for a few days and told her to think about it behind closed doors, presumably it was this matter that made her dissatisfied, and she would say what I said about the oppression of the concubine in the palace, right?

The Queen Mother is also a woman, when she was young and got along with the rest of the concubines of the first emperor, she must have seen many women who were not the same as the femme fatale and liked to shout to catch the thief, just ask the Queen Mother......"

Originally, although the Queen Mother was a little rude when she heard Tao Mingxi speak, but seeing that her spirit was better this time than the last time she met together, she felt that she was not as unpleasant as before, even if she didn't believe what she said in her heart, she was ready to listen to her.

Who expected Tao Mingxi's previous words to be not angry, but she just said that she put her own things to the Queen Mother to make a comparison, the Queen Mother was a good palace fighter when she was young, I don't know how many things like this have been done, because she began to believe in karma when she was old, she began to eat fasting and chant Buddha for peace of mind, Tao Mingxi talked about the viciousness of those concubines, and wrapped the Queen Mother in it, wouldn't it make the Queen Mother unhappy?

"Presumptuous! actually mocked the mourning family to your face, who gave you the guts! ”

Tao Mingxi was a little confused, what she said was the truth!

"Queen Mother, everything the concubine said is the truth, the concubine has never done anything to suppress the Sun family, but it is only out of self-preservation that she will be given a little caution, please let the Queen Mother know it, don't listen to the villain's words, the concubine marrying the five kings has never had half of the mind of being unfavorable to the prince......"

"The mourning family doesn't have the heart to take care of the affairs of your palace, you just accuse the Sun family, you dare to be disrespectful to the mourning family, the mourning family has to give you a little hardship, lest you don't have a long memory!"

Tao Mingxi was completely confused, she was originally saying that the Sun family was not good, she just wanted the Queen Mother to see the true face of the Sun family, how could she ......

"Someone, slap thirty!"

Tao Mingxi has seen the punishment of the palm mouth, which is to beat the mouth with a wooden stick, and the tortured person often can't take a few strokes, and his mouth will bleed and be painful, and serious teeth will be knocked out!

"Slaves obey!"

When she saw the eunuch walking towards her with a wooden stick, she finally knew, no matter whether she offended the Queen Mother by saying those words just now, the Queen Mother would always clean her up, but how could the Queen Mother choose to use such a cruel and obviously scarred punishment on the princess who married and married in a foreign country?

"Queen Mother, no matter how wrong the concubine is, she is also a princess who married and kissed in Fuyang Kingdom, is it not appropriate for the Queen Mother to use such a punishment on me?"

The Queen Mother looked at her viciously, and said lukewarmly: "This is the rule of my Zhao Kingdom, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, even if she is the princess of Fuyang Kingdom, she has to pay the price for offending the mourning family." ”

"But I'm also the concubine of the fifth prince, should the queen mother let the prince know if she wants to torture me? Not to mention my identity as a princess, I have received such a punishment as a woman, and my face is small, how to face my husband when I return to the palace, and how to explain to the prince? The name of the queen mother's mother is outside, can the punishment of the concubines really not consider the meaning of the prince? ”

When the Queen Mother heard Tao Mingxi say this, she didn't really think about Xing Tianze's feelings, but she felt that Tao Mingxi's words seemed to express a meaning, that is, Xing Tianze cared about her very much.

Doesn't this mean that Xing Tianze and Tao Mingxi are really in love, and if the two of them are together again, I am afraid that sooner or later they will have the heart of rebellion.

originally wanted to punish Tao Mingxi to make herself commit suicide in humiliation, but thinking that she and Xing Tianze already had a relationship, the Queen Mother had murderous intentions at that time. So he raised his hand slightly and motioned to the eunuch to take back the wooden strip of the palm, but he tapped the tea cup on the table with his fingertips, and motioned the eunuch to take another thing.

This Wei Gonggong has been with the Queen Mother for decades, and he is already familiar with her code, and when he saw her hints, he immediately understood in his heart, and silently turned around to prepare.

Tao Mingxi watched the eunuch leave, thinking that she could be spared, and let out a long breath, but she had been kneeling for too long, her knees hurt and her body was stiff, and she wanted to move but was afraid that the old witch would find stubble again to clean her up, so she had to bend over slightly and bend over with both hands to share a little pressure.

After a few seconds, the Queen Mother said leisurely: "Get up, for the sake of the five kings, the mourning family will spare you once, come, give sitting, and give tea." ”

"Thank you Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is really magnanimous, and the concubines are grateful!"

Tao Mingxi smiled with relief, but she wanted to get up but couldn't move, so she could only slowly get up on the ground, and the palace maid helped her to sit on the side when she saw this.

"Fifth princess, please use tea." The palace maid brought a cup of fragrant tea to her.

Tao Mingxi knelt for so long, her mouth was already dry, but she didn't forget that she was in front of the queen mother's old witch, maybe there was something wrong with this tea, so she had to pretend to be too hot, pretended to take a sip against the rim of the cup, and put it down.

"This is the mourning family's favorite Jin Junmei, how does it taste?"

"The concubine doesn't know much about tea, and she drinks less, but this tea is mellow and sweet, and the taste is much better than what the concubine drank in the past."
