The words of a few maids were all about Jin Zhao's badness, and Qiaoci on the side probably couldn't listen to it anymore, so she came to Jin Zhao's side and whispered to her: "Miss, do you want to go to the slave maid ......" She felt that these maids were too inconsequential to speak.

Before she finished speaking, Jin Zhao raised her hand and stopped her from thinking about it.

She was going to hear what the maids had to say about her.

It is estimated that Fang Caiqiao's voice entered the ears of several of them, only to see Xiumo raise his eyes and look behind him, and at this look, the whole body froze. The faces of the two little girls beside her turned pale with fright.

"See...... I've seen the imperial princess. ”

Several maids hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and just now they kept talking, when one by one they were like frightened birds, and even their voices trembled.

Jin Zhao lowered his eyes and looked at the girls in front of him, raised his hand, and said, "Get up."

After getting up, the maid Xiumo secretly took a look at the other two girls, all of them lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to gasp, and they didn't know if what they just said was listened to by the imperial concubine. However, they not only talked about their masters, but also spoke ill of their masters, and the situation was even more serious.

Xiumo thought for a while and hesitated: "The slave dares to ask when the imperial concubine came?" She thought it would be better to ask, if what she said just now was not listened to by the imperial concubine, it would be a false alarm.

An intriguing smile appeared at the corner of Jin Zhao's mouth: "What, are you afraid that I will hear something that I shouldn't hear, or are you saying something behind my back?"

As soon as these words came out, several maids were so frightened that they knelt down again, and their voices trembled even more than just now: "Slave...... Slaves...... Not...... No. ”

The little girl with a rounder face trembled, just counting her to talk the most, and the other one who was a little younger was already unable to speak clearly, only Xiumo's mind was still clear, but she was also afraid, and she was very afraid. In case the imperial concubine was not happy, she sent them to the palace...... Xiumo really didn't dare to think about it.

Jin Zhao looked at the three maids and said casually, "No? But what you said just now fell to my ears word for word. ”

Speaking of this, Jin Zhao deliberately stopped.

Xiumo, who was still holding a glimmer of hope, was completely dead at this time, and the other two maids kowtowed desperately.

"The princess spares her life, slave and maid...... The slave knows that she is wrong, and she will never dare to do it again......"

This scene seems familiar, as if she is a stern housewife.

Jin Zhao glanced at Qiaoci and Qingwen beside him, and the two maids immediately understood what they meant, and stepped forward to help the three of them up.

Jin Zhao said to them: "Wipe your tears with a handkerchief, let the other people in the house see it, and spread it, and those who don't know think that they have been wronged by me."

The three little maids were stunned when they heard this, and when Qiaoci saw this, she raised her voice and repeated: "Why, didn't you hear the words of the imperial concubine?" If your ears are not good, just send them out together. ”

Qiaoci was angry in her heart, she could hear every word of what she said just now, and they said behind her back that the eldest lady was not, telling her how not to be angry. If it weren't for her master's orders, she wouldn't want to help them up. What a good person the eldest lady is, she was slandered by them like this, if everyone is like them, and speaks ill of the eldest lady in private, wouldn't the reputation of the eldest lady be ruined by them, but the master is a benevolent person, and it is light to let them kneel.

Qingwen raised her eyes and glanced at Qiaoci, of course she understood why she was so angry, it was just to fight for the eldest lady. Qiaoci, who usually does things steadily, probably only becomes less calm in the affairs of the eldest lady.

In fact, you can't blame Qiaoci, if it weren't for the fact that these girls were really ugly, how could Qiaoci, who has always been good-natured, scold her. In the past, the subordinates of the house were respectful to their masters, but if they hadn't heard it with their own ears today, it would be hard to imagine that these seemingly innocent little girls were actually talkers.

Qiaoci's scolding frightened several maids and quickly took out their handkerchiefs to wipe away their tears.

Jin Zhao looked at the few maids in front of him, and he was still talking colorfully, but at this moment, they were all silent with their heads down, and their bodies were trembling. Then he said loudly: "Didn't you just say that you were having fun, why don't you make a sound now?"

Xiumo looked at the other two maids, her face turned white with fright, where did she dare to say half a word, she bit her lip and replied in a low voice: "The imperial concubine forgives the sins, the slaves and maids talked nonsense just now, it should not be true, if you say something that should not happen to you, please don't take it to heart, it is not the true words of the slaves and maids."

Jin Zhao smiled and asked, "Really?" What did you say about me? ”

Xiumo was choked for a while, in front of the imperial concubine, how dare she say that she didn't come. I knew that the imperial concubine was behind me, and I wouldn't have said those words if I killed her. But the two girls next to her who talked the most were scared like a dumb person and kept silent, and only asked her to speak alone.

When Xiumo stubbornly spoke, he heard Jin Zhao say slowly: "The matter of Yubi and Xiangtao, you think I punished them too heavily, and I didn't think about sending them out of the mansion originally, just because the fact that the two of them did it is unforgivable, if they are left in the mansion, what will others think." You don't have to think about it, you will feel that I am unfair, if they break only the things in the house, punish them or take a beating, this matter will pass, but the two of them will break the rules of the house, it will not be tolerated. ”

Speaking of which, Jin Zhao didn't say any more. She has said enough, if she still can't understand it, I'm afraid that no matter how much she speaks, it's useless, so it's better to stop there.

Qiao Ci couldn't see that others said that his master was wrong, so he couldn't help but say: "Yubi and Xiangtao made a mistake, or our imperial concubine has a good heart and lets them out of the house, in my opinion, even if they are beaten to death, they also deserve it." If you really can't look past it, why didn't anyone stand up and speak at the beginning, and they all shrank their heads. Now it's not about the imperial concubine, our imperial concubine is generous to others, and even made you say like this, who gave you the courage to make you so unbalanced, you first came to the house, didn't the mothers in the house teach you the rules? If you don't have a master in your heart, you might as well send your house as soon as possible. ”

After hearing this, the three of them turned white with fright, and they were really frightened by Qiaoci's words. They looked at each other, a little ashamed. They all responded: "It was the slaves and maids who made a mistake for a while, and I hope that Miss Qiaoci will say a good word for the slaves and maids in front of the imperial concubine, so I forgave the slaves and maids this time, and the slaves and maids knew that they were wrong, and asked the imperial concubine to be gracious."
