Chapter 469, the stripping staff?!
"Jia promised to accidentally fall down and crush the Queen Mother's little peony!"
Little Peony, that is the name of a new Pekingese dog raised by the Queen Mother, a small milk dog that is only three months old. A few days ago, when Yao Jiaxin went to ask for peace, she saw it, it was a little Jingba with golden hair, a small one, delicate and cute.
Wang Yicheng said: "Jia promised to take a walk by the Fuhai Sea, and happened to meet the eunuch of Cining Palace who came out to walk the dog, but Jia promised to slip under his feet and fell on Xiao Peony, and Xiao Peony ran out of gas on the spot. β
Jingba is a delicate dog, not to mention that Little Peony is only three months old.
"The Queen Mother is furious, and she has already called for the court staff!"
Hearing this, all the concubines present secretly rejoiced, and even wished that the court staff would be beaten harder and crippled to death!
Yao Jiaxin frowned, Jia promised to be a concubine, not a palace maid and eunuch, no matter how big a mistake he made, he couldn't use the court staff!
But then again, the Queen Mother was angry and wanted to punish a small promise, and who would dare to say half a "no"?
Concubine Qi showed a gloating expression, "Oops, this Jia promised too carelessly!" β
Concubine Yu hurriedly said: "Imperial Concubine Niangniang, the Queen Mother has always been measured, and she should not be punished too severely, just let the Imperial Doctor go to Guanlan Hall to take a look later." β
Concubine Yu suggested that she not interfere, so as not to upset the Queen Mother.
Yao Jiaxin wrinkled her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, and said: "The Queen Mother is angry, if she is angry, how can it be good, this palace should go and take a look." β
When everyone heard that the imperial concubine insisted on going, they couldn't help but be a little anxious, especially the nobleman.
The noble man stepped forward and curtled his knees and said: "Imperial Concubine Niangniang, it is Jia who promised to be at fault, and the queen mother's punishment is also what she deserves, why do you bother to go?" If the Queen Mother is angry with you because of this, won't the gain outweigh the loss? β
Yao Jiaxin glanced at the noble man out of the corner of his eyes, and said with a straight face: "Since the emperor ordered this palace to take charge of the affairs of the six palaces, then Jia promised that if the Jia family made a mistake, it should also be dealt with by this palace!" β
She put down the sentence with a loud voice, and walked away.
As soon as I became a concubine, you look at me, I look at you, I am a little overwhelmed.
Concubine Yu sighed, "I'll take a look, too!" He quickly caught up with Yao Jiaxin's footsteps.
The noble man said sourly: "For a small promise, an imperial concubine and a concubine have all gone, what a big face!" β
Concubine Qi pouted and said, "The imperial concubine is really virtuous!" "βAnd Concubine Yu has always been the concubine's follower.
Concubine Ning smiled, "The imperial concubine is virtuous, and it is also our blessing." Could it be that you are happy like the former queen? β
Hearing Concubine Ning's words, everyone was silent for a while.
At this moment, the shore of Fuhai Lake is really lively.
A small Pekingese dog was lying in the mud and was out of breath. And Jia agreed to look a little embarrassed, probably because he fell, and his body was also stained with a lot of mud, the little two heads were crooked, and a jade swallow hairpin on his head fell loosely, and his sideburns were scattered. Jia promised to kneel on the ground weakly, biting his lip, his expression already a little flustered.
At this moment, the eunuch of the court staff finally arrived.
The Queen Mother looked angry and was sitting upright in the pavilion, she looked coldly at Jia Shi who was kneeling on the stone road outside, and said angrily: "Someone! Thirty of Jia's clothes and staff will be set an example! β
Yao Jiaxin hurried all the way over, and heard the words "Clothes and Staff" from afar! It was a little unbelievable when he boarded, the court staff concubines were already out of line with the palace rules, let alone the stripped court staff!
The stripping of the court staff has always been aimed at courtiers, stripped of their clothes and trousers, and punished with the cane in public - this is not only a form of torture, but also intended to humiliate. - If it's a man, that's fine. But as far as women are concerned, in front of everyone's eyes, stripped of their clothes and cane, after such humiliation, I am afraid that they will have no shame to live!
Yao Jiaxin originally thought that the Queen Mother was just a vent. Unexpectedly, it was intended to force Jia to death!
I saw that the five big and three thick eunuchs had gone up to tear Jia Promise's clothes, and Jia Promise was also stunned, she raised her voice and said: "If the Queen Mother wants to beat the concubine, the concubine has nothing to say!" But the concubine is the emperor's concubine, how can she dress in public? The queen mother humiliated her concubine for the sake of a dog, isn't she humiliating the emperor?! β
Hearing this, the Queen Mother was even more furious, "How dare you use the emperor to threaten the mourning family?" The mourning family wants to see if the emperor will disobey the mourning family for you as a cheap maid! β
Saying that, the Queen Mother roared angrily: "What are you doing in a daze!" Stripped her clothes for the mourners! Punish with a cane! β
Seeing this situation, Yao Jiaxin was really glad that she didn't hesitate and came immediately, otherwise if it was a little later, this Jia promised to be violent for a while, and committed suicide by throwing himself into Fuhai, but how could it be good? !
Yao Jiaxin quickly lowered her shoulders, stepped forward quickly, and said loudly: "Please calm the anger of the Queen Mother!" β
Hearing this familiar voice, the Queen Mother couldn't help but be taken aback, she looked at the imperial concubine who was sweating profusely, and Concubine Yu who was following closely behind, and couldn't help frowning, the imperial concubine was obviously here to relieve the siege for the Jia family!
But why did the imperial concubine do this? The Jia family has been so favored in the past few months, isn't the imperial concubine a little uncomfortable in her heart? The mourning family wants to punish the Jia family, and the imperial concubine can completely watch from the wall and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
The Queen Mother felt that it was really incomprehensible.
Yao Jiaxin hurriedly bent her knees, "Please also ask the Queen Mother to calm her anger, although Jia promised that although it was wrong, she was a famous concubine after all." What's more, if such a thing as stripping the court staff spreads, it will also hurt the queen mother's reputation. β
Concubine Yu also hurriedly followed and curtsied: "Please calm the Queen Mother's anger." β
The Queen Mother couldn't help but say angrily: "The imperial concubine and Concubine Yu hurried to intercede for a small promise, and they did not hesitate to disobey the mourning family, which is really shocking to the mourning family!" β
Concubine Yu couldn't help but have a big head, the Queen Mother was a very kind person on weekdays, but she didn't think that she would have such a fierce speech.
Yao Jiaxin glanced at Jia Wei, who was still kneeling outside, and those eunuchs who were in charge of the punishment had already let go of their hands when they saw her as the imperial concubine coming, and they retreated aside for the time being, not daring to act rashly.
It was precisely because the eunuch in charge of the punishment did not dare to act rashly that the Queen Mother was even more angry. This means that she, the imperial concubine, is no less powerful than the queen mother in the harem.
Yao Jiaxin curtsied repeatedly, "The concubine is not disobedient to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother said that she would scold Jia with a cane, and the concubine has no objection." It's just that the stripping cane does not conform to the palace rules, and I hope that the Queen Mother will see it. β
The Queen Mother's old face was there, which was extremely ugly, but the Queen Mother also understood that if she continued to delay in this situation, she would delay until the emperor gave birth prematurely, and she was afraid that she would not even be able to beat the thirty canes!
The Queen Mother snorted coldly, looked at the few cane eunuchs, and scolded angrily: "Is it deaf? I didn't hear the imperial concubine's words, so I didn't want to be punished! β
"Huh!" The eunuch in charge of the punishment hurriedly kowtowed in response, and then stepped forward to set up the petite Jia promise to Shengsheng and pressed it on the bench on the side.
This time, Jia promised not to resist, and lay on the bench, biting his lip, and bearing it in silence.
The red lacquered wooden staff was raised high and landed on Jia Promise's hind buttocks, making a muffled sound of "poof", and Jia Promise gritted his teeth without making the slightest sound.
The Queen Mother saw it in her eyes and was very dissatisfied, she was angry and slapped the case, "You guys are shooting ashes!" It's a real hit for the mourning family! β
