Chapter 454

Su Nianjin finished her lunch slowly, played with Jingbao for a while, and took out a book to read.

Mama Jiang Ning stayed by the queen's side, she didn't believe that Su Nianjin had forgotten about Qi Xueting, but the people from General Qi's mansion had come to urge her several times, and Mama Jiang Ning had received money from others, and now she had to risk angering the queen to help her intercede.

Mama Jiang Ning was a little drumming in her heart, the queen's posture made it clear that she wanted to clean up Qi Xueting, and was it really good to help her intercede?

"Queen Mother, Steward Qi has been kneeling in the hall all morning, when is Niangniang going to deal with her?"

Su Nianjin raised her eyes to look at Mama Jiang Ning, and her cold gaze made Mama Jiang Ning chuckle in her heart, but she had already spoken, so she could only continue to speak, "After all, this is an errand given to Niang Niang by the emperor, and Niang Niang has not dealt with it for a long time, and the old slave is worried that the emperor will feel that Niang Niang has neglected his instructions...... If you have time to spare, you might as well deal with this matter first, and the old slave might as well send someone to the study to reply to the emperor. ”

Su Nianjin's eyes rolled, "I just saw that people from other palaces came over, but the emperor sent a will?" ”

Mama Jiang Ning's face froze, "No... No, it was the little palace maid in the imperial dining room who came to ask if today's meal was in line with the mother's taste. ”

"Really?" Su Nianjin's voice was very long, and Mama Jiang Ning was terrified when she heard it, "The people in the imperial dining room are really interested in this palace." ”

"Niangniang has the emperor's favor, and they naturally care more about you." Mama Jiang Ning's brain was a little flustered, and she had already spoken before she had time to speak.

"According to what you mean, if the palace falls out of favor one day, they won't look down on the queen of the palace?" Su Nianjin raised her eyebrows, and when she saw that Mama Jiang Ning, who had always been calm, was also flustered, she thought it was very interesting.

Su Nianjin's words made Mama Jiang Ning kneel down directly, "Niangniang forgives the sin, the old slave lost his words." ”

"Mama Jiang Ning. What are you afraid of? The corners of Su Nianjin's mouth curved, "Get up." ”

"Niangniang...... Mama Jiang Ning stood up and looked at Su Nianjin worriedly.

"Regarding Qi Xueting's handling, does the emperor have a clear instruction?" Su Nianjin put down the book and asked directly.

"Nope." Mama Jiang Ning shook her head, thinking of her previous excuse, and added, "I heard that the emperor is very busy today, and he hasn't had time to have lunch yet......

Su Nianjin frowned and pointed to a little palace maid behind Mama Jiang Ning, "What's your name?" ”

"Slave assortment, meet the mother." The named palace maids were a little stunned, they had been serving in Changchun Palace for more than a month, and the queen mother only talked to Jiang Ning Mama except for talking to the maids she brought.

Assorted was a little nervous, wondering why the queen mother would click on herself.

"Assorted notes, you go to the study," Su Nianjin said, "Tell Shunping's father-in-law a word, just say that it's time for lunch." ”

"Yes." Assorted blinked, and soon understood that the queen mother was worried that the emperor did not have lunch.

After the assortment left, Su Nianjin turned her head to look at Mama Jiang Ning, "You go and bring all the stewards in the palace to the palace, and let them all wait outside the Changchun Palace for a stick of incense." ”

"Yes, Queen." Mama Jiang Ning couldn't guess Su Nianjin's thoughts.

Does the queen want to separate herself and then deal with Qi Xueting? The more Mama Jiang Ning thought about it, the more likely it became, after all, when General Qi's Mansion sent someone to find her, she was seen by the queen mother.

Thinking of this, Mama Jiang Ning didn't dare to stay any longer, it was a big deal that she would return the silver she had received to General Qi's Mansion, Queen Mother, she didn't dare to offend again.

When all the stewards gathered outside the Changchun Palace, the two palace maids escorted Qi Xueting out and knelt on the ground, and then Su Nianjin slowly walked out.

Wan Feng brought a chair to Su Nianjin, and Su Nianjin sat down lazily.

"I'm going to gather you all today, and I want to share something with you." Su Nianjin said slowly, "It's only been more than a month since I sat in the position of the queen, and I think everyone is not familiar with my temperament. ”

Su Nianjin casually looked at the large group of palace people standing in front of her, their attitude seemed to be respectful, but in fact, they didn't see much of themselves in their eyes.

However, Su Nianjin didn't care, the corners of her mouth curled, "If you follow the rules and regulations of the palace, the palace can reuse you." But if you have crooked thoughts, no matter what background you have, this palace will severely punish you. ”

Su Nianjin's voice was not loud, but it was very cold, and the palace people present listened to it a little, it was all their own business.

Su Nianjin leaned back on the chair and looked at Qi Xueting again, "Steward Qi, as the steward of the Qianqing Palace, you used your power for favoritism and disrupted the order of the Qianqing Palace, do you admit this crime or not?" ”

"Queen, things are not what you think." Qi Xueting bit her lip, her face turned pale. The queen called all the stewards in the palace over, just to make an example of chickens and monkeys.

"Not what I thought?" Su Nianjin looked at Qi Xueting with a smile, her eyes were very contemptuous, as if she was looking at a clown jumping beam.

"Slave maid...... The slave maid ...... "Qi Xueting is ashamed, how can she say this kind of thing."

"If you're embarrassed to say, this palace can help you." Su Nianjin sneered, "But I just wanted to climb the emperor's bed, but when I woke up, the person lying on the bed was not the emperor!" ”

Qi Xueting's face was flushed, hot, what she did was criticized in public, she really couldn't bear it, "Queen Mother, please look at my father's face......"

"Your father's face? Who is your father? Su Nianjin directly interrupted Qi Xueting's words, "If you really care about your father's face, you shouldn't do such a shameless thing." Since you have entered the palace as a steward, you are not the eldest lady of General Qi's mansion. Your every move should be in accordance with the palace rules, what can be done and what cannot be done, when you entered the palace, did the head of the internal affairs office not teach? ”

Qi Xueting moved her lips, but finally failed to speak.

"Can't say anything?"

Qi Xueting pursed her lips, "The slave is wrong, please punish the queen." ”

"Since you know that you are wrong, this palace will reduce your sentence." Su Nianjin stood up, "From now on, strip Qi Xueting of her position as a steward, reward thirty boards and send her back to General Qi's mansion, and you will not be allowed to enter the palace again for three years." The governor of the internal affairs office did not teach the rules well, and was subject to the system of joint sitting, that is, he was stripped of his position as governor, demoted to the back court, and was not allowed to move out for two years. The post of Governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs shall be taken over by the former Deputy Governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Did you hear me clearly? ”

Su Nianjin's punishment was so heavy that everyone was surprised. The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was demoted before he even had time to say a word. At this time, they deeply understood what the queen's severe punishment meant.

"Hear me." The palace people didn't dare to slack off any longer, and the voice of the answer resounded in the sky.
