Chapter 81: The palace maid commits suicide
At the beginning of the Yin period, Dong Qilin left, so when Li Ling got up the next day, he didn't know that Dong Qilin had been in Mo Shang Palace for so long, and Ming 'Lu' also thought that Li Ling knew, so he didn't talk about it again.
After a night of recuperation, the eldest princess looked much better, so Ri Ling thought about sending her back to the eldest princess's Yongfu Palace, after all, it was not a way to stay with her like this. What's more, if the eldest princess stays with her, if the emperor asks about last night's affairs, he will definitely be in her Moshang Palace, and she doesn't want to mix the matter between the eldest princess and Concubine Xiao Shu.
The eldest princess didn't want to go back to Yongfu Palace, but she didn't know what Qinglan and Qingwei said to the eldest princess in the end, so the eldest princess went back to her own Yongfu Palace in a proper manner.
"This palace is so obedient to the will of the Xi mother, will the Xi mother really take care of the palace one or two?" The eldest princess returned to Moshang Palace and asked with some uncertainty.
"The imperial concubine doesn't want the princess to be in the Moshang Palace, she doesn't want to get involved in this matter, with the imperial concubine's means, if she really doesn't want you to stay in the Moshang Palace, it is estimated that you can only come back in the end. It's better to sell it in front of the imperial concubine, and obey the imperial concubine's wishes, the imperial concubine sees that you are sensible now, and must be willing to take care of our Yongfu Palace in the future, you see, if it weren't for the help of the imperial concubine this time, you might have to suffer how many more crimes! Qinglan patiently explained to the eldest princess.
After listening to Qinglan's explanation, the eldest princess also felt that it made sense, and quickly left this matter behind, after all, she had something very important to discuss with Qinglan.
"This time, we must not let Concubine Xiao Shufei retreat again!" The eldest princess didn't have to think about it, she knew that she was 'drugged' by someone this time, and it was Concubine Xiao Shufei who was locked up in Lixiang Palace.
Qinglan nodded, and discussed with the eldest princess how to use this incident to bring Concubine Xiao Shu down.
Hundred 'flowers' palace
"Pinlan, you really disappointed this palace!" Concubine Xiao Shu looked coldly at Pin Lan who was kneeling in front of her.
"This matter is a slave maid's thoughtlessness, please punish the mother!" Pinran didn't explain too much, and recognized the mistake this time.
"Niangniang, Pinlan also wants to teach the eldest princess a lesson and vent her anger to Niangniang, but she didn't think it well and made a big deal about it, but her heart is good, Niangniang, you don't remember the villain, let Pinlan go and sweep the tail clean, and make meritorious contributions!" Pinzhu pleaded with Pinlan.
"That's it, when this matter is understood, we will be punished separately!" The matter of the eldest princess is not over yet, so Concubine Xiao Shufei can't punish Pinlan at this time.
"Slave and maid, thank you Niangniang, the slave and maid have been arranged, the emperor went to check, and in the end, he could only find a palace 'girl' in Yongfu Palace who was not angry with the eldest princess for beating her, so she used such a method to retaliate against the eldest princess, and she couldn't find out from the Hundred 'Flowers' Palace anyway." Pinran was as calm as ever.
"The slave maid said that Pinlan is not a reckless person! Mother, just dissipate your anger! Pinzhu smiled, flattered Concubine Xiao Shu, and said good things to Pinlan.
Concubine Xiao Shu didn't talk about it anymore, only asked Pinlan to deal with the matter, and then moved on to something else.
The eldest princess had such a big thing in the palace, and it was naturally impossible for Dong Qilin to just leave it alone.
First of all, the palace 'women' and eunuchs on duty on the day of the Lantern Festival in Yongfu Palace were all killed, and the other palace people were all punished to Xin Zheku, after all, the eldest princess was resting in her own palace, but she could still be taken away and locked up in Lixiang Palace, so many people in Yongfu Palace were not seen, it can be seen that she didn't care about serving the eldest princess on weekdays, and the eldest princess only kept her own 'milk' and Qinglan and Qingwei's two palace 'women', but Qinglan and Qingwei's two palace 'women' were demoted to first-class palace 'women'.
Secondly, Concubine Ning and Xia Zhaoyuan were also reprimanded by Dong Qilin, after all, what happened to the eldest princess in the harem, Concubine Ning was in charge of the harem affairs, Xia Zhaoyuan assisted in the management, and the eldest princess had an accident, and Concubine Ning and Xia Zhaoyuan were only reprimanded It was already the most innocuous punishment.
In fact, Dong Qilin wanted not to let Concubine Ning take charge of the Houyin in the future, but let Pear Ling be in charge, and Concubine Li Xian assisted in the management, but he also thought that the relationship between Concubine Ning and Pear Ling has always been good, if Concubine Ning is directly asked to give power to Pear Ling, Concubine Ning will inevitably have a pimple in her heart, and it will not be beautiful to hurt the relationship between them when the time comes, anyway, Xia Zhaoyuan is the person of Pear Ling, with Xia Zhaoyuan here, Pear Ling will not be able to suffer. Based on this idea, Concubine Ning and Xia Zhaoyuan were not punished this time, but were only simply reprimanded.
At the beginning, Dong Qilin's attitude towards Concubine Ning and Xia Zhaoyuan was very unhappy, Concubine Ning and Xia Zhaoyuan both thought that they would be fined for the lightest, and they would 'hand' over the power of the palace or even degrade their positions, but they never thought that after Dong Qilin went to the Moshang Palace, he simply reprimanded the two of them.
Concubine Ning and Xia Zhaoyuan both felt that it was Li Ling who spoke for them.
Only Li Ling herself knew that Dong Qilin came to Mo to go to the palace just to see a few children and talk to a few children for a while, and she didn't say anything to Dong Qilin at all, let alone plead.
Li Ling didn't understand why Dong Qilin did this, why did she let Concubine Ning and Xia Zhaoyuan accept her love?
Is this for her?
Pear Ling couldn't believe that this idea that Dongqi would come to her for her, and Pear Ling felt that it was too whimsical.
Fortunately, Dong Qilin didn't know that his kindness was not accepted by Liling at all, otherwise, he would probably have to be angry again.
The matter of the eldest princess was investigated for several days, and it was not easy to find the head of a palace 'girl', and when she wanted to be interrogated further, the palace 'girl' committed suicide after leaving a confession blood letter, and the confession said that it was because she was not angry with the eldest princess that she beat and scolded her, so she wanted to deliberately scare the eldest princess, so she gave 'medicine' to the eldest princess, and then locked the eldest princess in Lixiang Palace, she didn't think about how to do anything to the eldest princess.
For such a slave who took revenge because the master punished her, Dong Qilin naturally would not let it go lightly, originally Dong Qilin wanted to punish the palace 'girl' of the three clans, but in the end it was found that the palace 'girl' had been an orphan since she was a child, and her family was all unknown, so naturally there were no three clans to be punished, so Dong Qilin ordered that the body of the palace 'girl' be whipped at the palace 'gate' for three days, so that all the palace people could watch it and set an example.
"Damn! Damn it! Damn it! "The eldest princess is so angry that she is about to go crazy, she has sinned so badly, and she has only found one palace 'girl'! Xiao Shufei is really a good means!
"The princess is angry, just by virtue of that palace 'girl' alone, how can she avoid so many people in the palace and quietly tie you to Lixiang Palace? That palace 'girl' must have accomplices! Qinglan calmly analyzed, it doesn't matter if the palace 'girl' is dead, as long as they continue to investigate, she won't believe it, Concubine Xiao Shu does things so cleanly, leaving no traces.
"Since they can avoid so many people in the palace and lock up the palace in Lixiang Palace, they will definitely not be able to find out, that palace 'girl' is dead, and the clues will be broken!" Princess Celestia was a little discouraged.
"It doesn't matter to the princess whether she can find out the real accomplice or not, the important thing is that this accomplice has a relationship with Concubine Xiao Shu?" Qinglan's eyes flashed, and she had something to say.
"You're saying we're going to do it?" Celestia's eyes lit up.
Qinglan smiled and nodded, she could think that it was impossible for the dead palace 'girl' to complete such a thing alone, and the emperor would definitely be able to think that if they had arranged in advance for such a person to wait for the emperor to check in Concubine Xiao's Hundred 'Flowers' Palace......
