Chapter Thirty-Eight: Mama Rong's Little Black House

After Chef Gong was beaten half to death, he was gorgeously hung on the door of the imperial dining room by the queen.

At this time, Chef Gong can be said to be saying that the earth is not good every day, the wound behind him that was scolded by the cane is bleeding, but his hands are still hanging, and there is a sign on his chest, and the whole person is just dangling on the beam.

When the people passing by the palace looked at it, they were shocked and their hairs stood on end.

"Audacious and bullying, Gong Imperial Chef has offended which palace lady?"

"It is said that he was too arrogant, and he bullied the head of Fengning Palace, so he was scolded by the rod and hung up, tsk, tsk, look at the injury on the back, it seems that the queen is ruthless."

"But no, I can see it from afar, the queen mother brought a lot of guards, this Gong Imperial Chef made things difficult for the palace maid of Fengning Palace earlier, and had the audacity to cut off the queen's lunch, which was cleaned up, hum, I see, it's all his own fault!"

After a number of palace maids and eunuchs pointed at him and whispered to each other, it didn't take long for the news of the queen's mother's thunderous means to punish evil slaves spread in the palace again.

At that time, Yuanbao had just finished cleaning up Gong Yu's kitchen, and took Yuhe and the guards all the way to Fengning Palace, with a solemn look on his little face, and the maid of Yuhe Palace trembled.

"Niangniang, you put Gong Imperial Kitchen ...... Playing like that, how can the Queen Mother blame it? ”

That's the queen mother's cousin, and the mother can really do it.

Yuhe's little face was anxious, but Yuanbao was very calm, "What's the matter, this palace has been ridden on the head, why not punish a Diao slave?" ”

Thinking about those two slaps in the morning, Yuan Bao couldn't help but pout, "What's wrong with the Queen Mother's cousin?" The palace is still the queen, doesn't she follow suit? ”

That's right.

The master punishes the slave, it is indeed a matter of course, the mother is right!

Yuhe rubbed his head, pondered for a while and nodded hesitantly, then remembered something, and said entangledly: "Niangniang, that Gong Imperial Kitchen was hung by you, who cares about the food in the dining room?" ”

Well, this little palace maid thinks quite comprehensively.

Yuan Bao patted his head, and then remembered that there was a major event that had not been arranged, and hurriedly Chong Yuhe said: "After a while, take the token of the palace and go to the silver treasury to pay some silver, and say that the palace has arranged it, and go to recruit a few new cooks who are quick to come in!" ”

There is just one less imperial chef, she has a lot of silver in hand, and it is not easy to find a few cooks? As for the appointment and dismissal of the dining room management, that is what the emperor should be concerned about, she doesn't care!

As soon as she heard that her mother had a plan, Yuhe could be considered to have calmed down, "Yes!" The slave will arrange it in a while! ”

It's just that the arrangement of the imperial dining room is appropriate, but the Queen Mother's side is still tricky anyway.

The maid of the Yuhe Palace thought about it, and was always worried, although the mother was not afraid of the sky and the earth at the moment, but the queen mother was also resolute in punishing people, and then she would punish the mother again, but how could it be good?

"Niangniang, are you really not afraid? In the morning, it's a palm, and then it's uncertain. ”

Well, that makes sense.

The ingots girl subconsciously wiped her face, "Hey, it hurts." ”

Those two grandmothers are so ruthless!

Her face flickered and darkened, and her eyes were dripping and rolling as she walked.

Yuhe watched silently, and didn't understand what Niangniang was thinking at this moment, but Niangniang's seemingly calm look made her feel relieved, no matter what, her Niangniang finally got angry!

I just had a little awe and reverence for ingots in my heart, and when I turned my head, I saw that the calm lady suddenly walked quickly, as if there was a mad dog behind her.

"Mother?"

She walked a few steps quickly to keep up, and saw her mother's face strained and she looked anxious, "Sensei, go back to Fengning Palace!" ”

Why are you still not allowed to speak?

Yuhe was instantly stunned, and hurried back to Fengning Palace.

After stepping into the palace gate, Yuan Baoden hurriedly pulled Yuhe and instructed, "You go to the treasury quickly, count the silver in it and count out 200,000 taels, and let people send it to the emperor!" ”

"Two hundred thousand taels?!"

Yuhe wondered and felt pain again, "Niangniang, why is this?" Your Majesty is looking for you to fine you again? ”

Yuan Bao shook his head with a bent face, "No, no, no, this silver must be sent!" You go! ”

"I'm here, mother! 200,000 taels is not a small amount, should it really be given away for nothing? ”

What else can you do if you don't give it away in vain, Yuan Bao covered his face, and he was so sad that tears were about to come out, "You send it quickly, it's too late, my life is not guaranteed." ”

Yuhe was confused by her, and was about to ask clearly, when there were many guards outside the hall, and the leader was the housekeeper of Kunning Palace.

Yuan Bao wilted instantly, turned his head and looked at Yuhe bitterly, "What did I say, the silver must be sent." ”

The goddess of the Rain Lotus Palace looked at the guards from far and near outside in a panic, her mind turned a few times, and after finally reacting to something, she suddenly looked sad and angry.

"! The slave and maid will prepare the silver! ”

She gritted her teeth, suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, turned around and secretly retreated towards the side room.

Chef Gong punished him for less than half a day, and the other end of Kunning Palace received the news, no, his cousin let him beat him, and the beating was still the queen who he didn't want to see, and the queen mother was immediately angry.

"Although Gong Imperial Chef and the mourning family are cousins of many generations, and they don't have much interaction on weekdays, but after all, they are intimate, and the gold ingots don't care about half of their affection, isn't this clearly adding to the mourning family?!"

The Queen Mother was really angry about Gong Yuchu's matter, and directly issued a decree to detain the ingots.

At this moment, Yuanbao was taken all the way to a room in Kunning Palace by several fat and strong guards, and before he could distinguish the direction, the door was slammed and was slammed.

Seeing the pitch black inside, only a faint light could be seen through the small window in the corner, and Yuan Bao was immediately frightened.

I thought that I would call her to train her to death, but she would be slapped twice, but she didn't think that she would be locked up in a small black room directly.

This is detention in disguise!

She was furious and banged on the door, "Hey! Where is this? This palace is the queen, why should I be locked up! ”

The guards at the top of the door stood on both sides like wooden stakes, and the door gods generally looked at the gate as if they didn't hear the ingots inside.

I haven't seen any movement outside for a long time, the ingots are very broken, this is a small black house, will there be another Rong Mama later?

Hell, she wouldn't really enter Mama Rong's little dark house, right?

Thinking of this, the ingots girl was terrified, and hurriedly shouted outside, "Is there anyone!" Feed! Let me out! ”

For a long time, the two 'door gods' outside still didn't move, no matter how the ingots inside shouted, they never said a word.

The ingots inside howled at the outside, but there was no movement for a long time, and finally, her legs wilted, and she lay at the door tired, with a helpless face.

"It's over, I'm dying."

Yuan Bao frowned, and his little face was worried.

To punish a cook is to put himself into a small dark room and create a great sin.

She was very desperate and nested inside, but the rain lotus palace maid outside was so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground at this time.

"Hurry, hurry! Is it counted? ”

In the small treasury of ingots, the maid of the Yuhe Palace beckoned the guards in the Fengning Palace to count the silver for a long time, and after the last box of silver landed, the leader of the guards wiped his sweat and was relieved.

"200,000 taels are here, Miss Yuhe, what should I do next?"

Yuhe glanced at the big pile of silver shining in front of him, remembering the words of the mother when she left, her little face was bitter, and she was reluctant to look at the silver again, and finally bit the root of her teeth, and said very tragically: "Follow the order of the mother, all of them will be sent to the Qianyang Palace!" ”

At that time, the emperor who was busy dealing with government affairs in the Qianyang Palace did not know about the ingots, and it was not until Father-in-law Mei Desheng came in from outside the palace in a panic that the emperor raised his head from the dragon case.

Slightly glancing at Xiao Dezi, who seemed to have something to say but didn't know how to speak, Emperor Qiongye glared impatiently, "What's wrong?" Panicked, have something to say quickly! ”

Medsheng pondered for a while, pondered the wording very carefully, and then cautiously opened his mouth.

"Your Majesty, something happened to the queen."

"Queen? What's wrong with it? ”

Which palace did you go to to uncover the tiles again? He just found an excuse and fined her 50,000 taels, won't the opportunity to collect the cash so soon come again, right?

The emperor was thinking about making money, and he was originally full of joy, but seeing Mei Desheng's solemn face at this moment, he subconsciously sank in his heart.

"But what's wrong?"

He asked seriously, and Mei Desheng hurriedly explained to him, "Back to Your Majesty, in the morning, Niangniang was summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother, and was reprimanded on the grounds of seducing the monarch, and I heard that she was slapped on the mouth. ”

Hearing that Yuan Bao was beaten, the emperor's brows twisted, "Is this serious?" ”

"Seriously! Rumors have spread in the palace! Not only that, but just ......"

"How's that?"

The emperor asked eagerly, and Mei Desheng thought about it again and again and finally reminded the emperor, "Your Majesty, the meal in Fengning Palace at noon is deliberately detained, and the queen is not angry, so she went to the dining room to punish Chef Gong, but ...... But the cook is close to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is only afraid that she will be very good. ”

offended the Queen Mother, life and death are unpredictable!

The emperor's face became more and more stiff when he was told by Mei Desheng, and he never expected such a big event to happen on this day.

It's not that Gong Yuchu has not been punished, and he has seen the queen mother's face to some extent until now, and he never thought that when the woman Yuanbao was still so tough, he didn't dare to start, but let her take the lead.

It's just a matter of punishing a minion, he doesn't think there's anything wrong with it, it's just the queen mother's ...... I'm afraid it's going to be difficult.

"How is the Empress now?"

I saw Mei Desheng's face look anxious, but he said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, the slave just saw the guards of Kunning Palace arresting people from a distance, and the queen mother is afraid that she has been locked in the dark room at this time." ”

The place of the darkroom can be very clear, usually the queen mother disposes of the house commonly used by the people below, it is dark inside, it looks like an ordinary house, but in fact it is the same as the prison.

If the mother is really locked up, I am afraid that she will have to 'serve'.

Obviously, the emperor is resistant to the dark room, the queen mother seems to ignore the world on weekdays, but in fact she is very domineering and domineering, and the palace maids and eunuchs are all sophisticated and ruthless, and the dark room has not known how many people have been punished so far.

The emperor who originally pursued leniency was very disgusted, but he deliberately turned a blind eye to the queen mother's nurturing grace since childhood, only to feel that the apparent mother-son relationship between him and the queen mother was still there, and he still needed to be patient where he should endure, but he didn't want the dark room to let the ingots crash into it today.

Now it's okay, forced into a corner, he can't stand by anymore.
