Xu Cairen's eyes were about to fall when he looked at me. She probably didn't expect me to be so bold and dare to say that I have opinions about the emperor.

"Comments?" The emperor didn't get angry when he heard this, just glanced at me and said, "You say! ”

I said calmly: "There are so many flowers in the garden, and the slave doesn't really want this plum blossom, let alone rob it from anyone." The slave is just not convinced! Even if she is a noble talent, I am a lowly palace maid, but she can't just snatch other people's things, let alone beat people for no reason! ”

When Xu Cairen heard this, he immediately replied: "It was you who treated me disrespectfully first, and I wanted to beat you." Moreover, I haven't hit you yet, but you gave me a slap in the face first. Xu Cairen cried at the emperor again, "Your Majesty, look at the slave's face!" She hit it! Not only did she slap me, but she also scratched my face. Your Majesty, this palace maid is also arrogant, not only committing crimes, but also falsely accusing me in front of the emperor. Your Majesty, such a traitorous villain, not punishing is not enough to correct the harem. Please call the shots! ”

I said, "Cairen, what you said is not right. When did I become disrespectful to talented people? I have already explained to the talented people, the flower was chosen by me for our county lord, I took a fancy to it first, it was the talented person who had to rob our county lord, and it didn't count if he grabbed the flower, but he also pushed me, and after the push, he had to slap my mouth. I know that talented people have always liked to beat the palace maids and eunuchs in their palaces, and they will be beaten all over their bodies at every turn. But I'm not in the palace of talented people, talented people will beat us when you say it, and scold it when you say it, you clearly don't take our county lord in your eyes, if you beat me, you are beating our county lord, if you scold me, you will scold our county lord, our county lord treats us like relatives, how can I let her be bullied by others. Your Majesty, the slave maid was so angry that she scolded our county lord that she had to fight back. ”

Xu Cairen was so angry when he heard this, his face turned red, and he was about to jump up and scold me. But the emperor was here, she didn't dare to be presumptuous, pointed at me and said: "You are a strong word, you are just a palace maid, and you can compare with your county lord?" Your Majesty, I really didn't scold the county lord, she was talking nonsense! ”

The emperor glanced at me meaningfully, then looked at Xu Cairen, his face sank, "What she said is true?" Do you often beat people in your own palace? ”

I was a little surprised that he knew the point of my words after all I said!

I looked at the emperor's look of watching the fire, and my heart suddenly became nervous, since he knew, did he also know, I deliberately fought with Xu Cairen?

But why didn't he demolish me, but instead acted with me?

When Xu Cairen heard the emperor's inquiry, he realized what I said in the middle, and his originally angry face turned pale with fright, and he shook his head again and again, "No!" I didn't! It's that they are a little frizzy, I just taught them a lesson, and I didn't hit them! ”

"No?" I said, "When Jin Se and Yaoqin arrived at Zhaoyang Palace, they were covered in injuries. Didn't you hit it? What do you say they did wrong, and you did so badly? ”

"I didn't hit ......" Xu Cairen panicked and even stammered, "It's themselves...... I accidentally injured myself. Yes, they accidentally injured themselves, not me. ”

"I hurt myself!" I sneered, "Do you think your reasons can be believed?" I looked at Jin Se and Yaoqin, "Jin Se and Yaoqin, you let the emperor see the injuries on your body." Don't worry, the emperor has always had clear rewards and punishments, and he will definitely make decisions for us! ”

Jin Se and Yaoqin knelt in front of the emperor and rolled up their sleeves.

Although the injuries on their bodies are no longer as obvious as when I first saw them, I can still faintly see some ugly scars.

Yaoqin cried: "Your Majesty, when the slave maid and Jin Se were waiting for Lexuan, she beat us at every turn, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting for Lexuan were basically beaten by her. ”

Jin Se also cried: "Yes, Your Majesty, she will take out her anger on us when she is in a bad mood." We are subordinates, and it doesn't matter if we are wronged, but today, she actually scolded our county lord, and after scolding was not enough, she beat her. Your Majesty, you must be the master of our county. ”

Xu Cairen pointed at Jin Se and Yaoqin and scolded: "You spew blood...... Bloody mouth...... I didn't scold the county lord......"

I snorted coldly in my heart, you dare to say that you didn't scold or fight!

The emperor looked at us quietly, his eyes were deep, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he really couldn't see what he was thinking.

I think maybe my reasons are not enough, and the emperor doesn't believe me. After all, Jin Se and Yaoqin are now in my palace, and their words are not convincing. My eyes swept over the Ying'er behind Xu Cairen.

I looked at Ying'er and said, "Ying'er, you come out, do you tell the emperor that Xu Cairen has beaten you?" ”

Ying'er shrank behind Xu Cairen and only shivered, unable to speak, let alone dare to come out.

The emperor also looked at Ying'er and said, "Come here, you tell me, did she beat you?" ”

Ying'er fluttered and knelt on the ground, kowtowing again and again, "Return...... Return...... Emperor...... Your Majesty, we are talented...... Talent ...... Talented people ......" trembling and unable to speak.

I saw her frightened look, and knew she wouldn't dare say it. I walked up to her and forcibly pulled the sleeve from her arm, and sure enough, I saw bruises and scars all over her arm.

The emperor glanced at the wound on Ying'er's arm, his face sank, and he looked at Xu Cairen, "What else do you have to say?" ”

"I ......" Xu Cairen knew that it was useless to deny it again, hugged the emperor's legs, and wept bitterly, "Your Majesty, the slave knows that she is wrong, and she doesn't dare anymore." Slaves and maids, but I am afraid that if my temper is too good, they will think that I am a bully, they will look down on me, and they will bully me, so they will be like this. Your Majesty, the slave and maid really know that they are wrong, please don't punish the slave and maid! Xu Cairen cried with a handful of snot and tears, crying so well that he was not sad.

The emperor frowned, with some impatience in his eyes, and said to the people around him, "Pull her away!" ”

Immediately, two guards came up and pulled the crying Xu Cairen away.

The emperor said: "As a talented person, you don't know how to treat people leniently, beat people at will, and even fought with the palace maid in the imperial garden, which is unseemly, and you will be demoted to a lady from now on, and you will be grounded for three months." ”

Xu Cairen heard a miserable scream, almost fainted, and kowtowed to the ground repeatedly, "Your Majesty, the slave and maid know that they are wrong, so you can spare the slave and maid!" The slave doesn't dare anymore! Don't dare anymore! ”

I was amazed, this punishment was too heavy! I just hoped to teach her a lesson and stop bullying the poor palace maids and eunuchs, but I didn't expect that the emperor not only demoted her status, but also punished her to be grounded for three months. For a concubine who has fallen out of favor, it is equivalent to closing the cold palace.
