Chapter 177: Punishment
Under the leadership of Xiao Ling, the three palace maids did not consult with Yu'er, nor did they send any messages, and they did not clean the small courtyard the next morning.
There is a road next to the small courtyard that leads to the back garden, from where some harem dignitaries often pass. Within a few hours, someone had already noticed that there were some fallen leaves and garbage drifting in the wind.
And on this day, there is a lot of garbage and fallen leaves here, which is a bit abnormal, as if someone deliberately sprinkled it.
In the harem, such a thing is absolutely not allowed to happen, and it was soon reported to the director.
Director, Zhao Gonggong in this area will soon be here. He was furious when he saw the mess all over the place.
Summoning those slaves and maids, Zhao Gonggong asked sharply: "Which cheap maid is in charge here?" Get the hell out of here. ”
None of the slaves and maids there stood up, and Gonggong Zhao was even more angry?
But at this time, the most important thing is to clean up quickly, so he asked those slaves and maids to do it together. Otherwise, when this matter reached the ears of Gonggong Liu, he would not be able to escape the blame, after all, he was responsible for this piece.
The cleaning slave didn't dare to say anything, but she was very unhappy in her heart, after all, it was not her own business, and it was finally time to eat, and she actually had such a thing again.
Gonggong Zhao scolded angrily: "You cheap maids, hurry up and clean up, no one is allowed to eat this morning." ”
Zhao Gonggong did what he said, and the palace maids present with this temper knew very well in their hearts that they could not reward Zhao Gonggong, so they could only curse secretly.
When the cleaning was finished, Zhao Gonggong gathered everyone. As long as there is nothing important at hand, they are all standing here.
"Who's in charge of this piece?" Zhao Gonggong questioned again, because she couldn't remember, after all, there were many slaves and maids here.
Someone quietly looked back at Xiao Lin and the others, because they usually saw Xiao Ling and the two slaves cleaning here, so they thought that Xiao Ling was in charge.
Xiaoling understands what everyone's gaze means? However, she didn't stand up, because it wasn't her own responsibility, even if she had cleaned it before, it wasn't her name.
Zhao Gonggong angrily asked a little eunuch to get the distribution sheet. It's a clear record of everyone's part. Even if no one admits it, it doesn't matter.
After the little eunuch ran away, no one admitted it, and a palace maid said softly: "Father-in-law Zhao is in charge of Xiaoling here." ”
Gonggong Zhao glared at Xiao Ling fiercely, "You won't admit it if you ask here for most of the day, is there in your mouth?" Or do you think it's okay if you don't admit it? The palace has good food and drink to raise you slaves and maids, but you don't do things well, so what's the use of letting you stay here. ”
In other words, if she did something wrong, Xiao Ling would definitely be very scared, but now she is not in a hurry at all, because this is not her own business, not to mention that Yang Liu has already said that she will help her.
Xiao Ling took a step forward and said softly, "Father-in-law is not in charge of the slave here. Before, because no one cleaned it, the slave maid also cleaned here, but it was not the slave and maid who were responsible. ”
Another palace maid also remembered, "Father-in-law Zhao seems to be in charge of Yu'er here." However, under normal circumstances, it is not her who cleans here, but Xiaoling and others who work here. ”
Hearing this, my father-in-law was also puzzled, "What the hell is going on, call Yu'er over quickly, what is this doing?" ”
At this time, Yu'er and Xiaoyun also ran over. They saw so many people gathered together and didn't know what was going on.
After the two of them stood up, Xiao Ling said, "Father-in-law, it's really not the slave and maid who are in charge here, it's Yu'er's." Before, the nursery said that he was tired and didn't want to clean, so he asked us to help, so we cleaned here, but today we also have a lot of things on our side. ”
Gonggong Zhao looked at Yu'er and asked coldly, "Are you responsible for this small piece?" ”
Yu'er was stunned for a moment, and at this time she understood, what was the so-called matter when everyone gathered together. This land is indeed her own responsibility, but it has always been Xiaoling and a few palace maids who have helped her clean it. It's a small piece of area, and she almost forgets that it's her responsibility.
At this time, the little eunuch ran over panting with the distribution sheet and handed the book in his hand to Gonggong Zhao.
She couldn't quibble at this time, so she could only nod, "Father-in-law, I'm indeed in charge here!" ”
Gonggong Zhao snorted coldly, "If you don't take out the allocation list, you still don't admit it." Since you're in charge, why don't you clean it? ”
If it was before, Yu'er could put the blame on Nan Zixi. But today the princess is out of the palace, and she hasn't done anything.
She was a little timid, but she could only explain: "Father-in-law, before Xiaolin, they helped clean up because the slave and maid hid the matter from the princess, and today the slave and maid forgot." ”
Gonggong Zhao looked at him, and of course he knew that Yu'er had been busy in front of the princess.
Looking at Xiao Ling, he still seemed to want to leave a little leeway, so he asked, "Are you doing anything for the princess today?" ”
Without waiting for Yu'er to answer, a palace maid said: "Yu'er, now the princess doesn't need you to serve at all, Yang Liu is busy with many things, you haven't done anything at all, don't deceive your father-in-law." ”
Yu'er glared at her, this palace maid didn't have a good relationship with her before, but there was no deep contradiction, she was very close to Yang Liu recently, and Yu'er also knew this.
Zhao Gonggong scolded sharply, "Bold and cheap, you dare to be lazy." If you don't do the things on the princess's side, you don't do the things that are within your bounds, what do you want? ”
Seeing that Zhao's father-in-law was so angry, Yu'er hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Please forgive your father-in-law, Yu'er is really busy and forgetting." ”
"Busy? How many things do you dare to say that you are busy, and a little palace maid dares to be so ashamed! From now on, you scrub this yard seriously. Today's lunch and dinner are free. If there's a leaf or a piece of garbage here tomorrow morning, tomorrow's meal will be free. ”
Hearing such a punishment, Yu'er of course felt very aggrieved, because this was something she had never suffered before. But what about this time? Even if he begs for mercy again, Zhao Gonggong will not change.
What's more, if you are like that, it will make these palace maids around you look down on you even more. Why is this happening? By now, Yu'er has understood in her heart that she has been calculated.
Xiao Ling must have done this for a reason, otherwise even if she lent her ten guts, she wouldn't dare.
