Chapter 55: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
"Your Majesty, the concubine Niangniang, the slave maid did find some things from the concubine Niangniang."
Yuexiang came over after taking someone to Xie Churou to search, not so much to search for something suddenly, but to premeditately, anyway, the thing was there, she just needed to go over and find it.
"But I found something."
Zheng Yinghuan asked deliberately.
Chu Yu was already impatient, he just wanted to wait for a result here, a result that could gag everyone's mouth.
"When the slave maid led people to search, the people in the palace of the lady concubine looked panicked, especially a slave maid named Zhilan. After seeing that something was wrong with her, he told the story after a few intimidations. said that the lady concubine Niangniang had been especially fond of Shelanxiang recently, so she asked her to go outside the palace to buy a lot of them. ”
Yuexiang clearly said the planned content word by word, and after finishing speaking, she felt that His Majesty's breathing increased, and she knew that it was right.
"I really don't know, how did Concubine Fang have the face to say that she was wronged, did she think that the people of the concubine couldn't find out, or did she want to pretend to beg Your Majesty to spare herself?"
It's time for Concubine Jia to come out again, anyway, things have come to such a point, we must find one out, since the concubine Niangniang has already prepared, then they just go down the steps.
"It turns out that you really hurt my child, this thing has been found in your palace, what do you want to quibble!"
The pavilion concubine pointed at Xie Churou's hands and trembled, her eyes were already swollen as big as a walnut from crying, and her tears were about to run dry.
Without children, without His Majesty's favor, without the support of the concubine, his life in the harem is really difficult!
Xie Churou didn't speak, seeing His Majesty's still indifferent face, she probably understood something in her heart.
"Since the concubine has found the evidence, what else do you say to the concubine, no one will believe what the concubine is saying."
Xie Churou closed her eyes, but she was inevitably a little disappointed.
She thought that she had been with His Majesty for so many years, always gentle and dignified and did not do anything wrong, thinking that in His Majesty's heart, there should be a little difference, right?
I didn't expect it to be like this, but it was nothing more than that.
In fact, if you think about it, Your Majesty's attitude has changed when the concubine loses her child, not to mention that the same is true for her?
"Your Majesty, the concubine thinks this matter should be thoroughly investigated!"
Xie Ruya really couldn't help but stand up, and said that if she could bear it, then she really felt ridiculous at this moment.
"Concubine Jing doesn't need to say more, the concubine has already admitted it, so it's useless to bother with words."
Xie Churou glanced back at Xie Ruya.
Xie Ruya knew what this look meant, it was to tell her to shut up and stop talking, she looked up at Her Majesty, knowing that it was really useless to say more now.
Your Majesty really doesn't care about this matter, he just wants to get a satisfactory result and solve the matter.
"Your Majesty, since Concubine Shu has already confessed, how should this matter be resolved?"
Seeing that Xie Churou had already accepted her fate, Zheng Yinghuan couldn't help but smile, this is still quite smart, knowing that the result is still the same if it goes on, so she simply admitted the matter.
Anyway, knowing that with the Queen Mother behind her back, there will be no danger to her life, at most it will be a painless punishment.
Xie Churou looked at the person who didn't fight or grab on the surface, but she always felt that the other party was planning something in her heart, and it was time to knock it.
"From now on, Concubine Shu will be reduced to a nobleman, and she will think about it behind closed doors."
Chu Yu left a sentence and got up to leave, he had been here long enough, and he was already patient to be able to resolve this matter.
As for whether there is a hidden secret, he doesn't want to pay attention to it, he only knows that this matter seems to be decent, since Concubine Shu herself can't say anything to refute it, then she did it.
"Yes!"
Zheng Yinghuan bent down and saluted in the direction of Chu Yu's departure, the smile on the corner of his mouth was so proud.
Xie Churou saw it in her eyes and stinged in her heart.
Your Majesty really doesn't worry about the things in this harem, just look at a satisfactory result, and this has been the case many times.
In fact, she has seen it in her eyes for so many years, and many times it is not how capable the concubine is, it is entirely because His Majesty does not like to get involved in the affairs of the harem, and just thinks that this result can satisfy everyone.
Xie Ruyan still felt a little cold, but she didn't expect that after so many years, His Majesty's heart was really getting colder and colder.
When she was wronged, His Majesty would have asked a few words, but at the moment, she really didn't ask a word, she just felt that this result was reasonable and convincing, and it was solved like this.
Fortunately, it's just a downgrade, presumably Your Majesty also gave such a punishment for the sake of his aunt's face, right?
"Concubine Shu, no, noble lady, it seems that we all misjudged you, originally you thought that you would not fight or fight with the world, who knew that there was such a femme fatale buried in the bottom of your heart!"
Concubine Li smiled, "The pavilion concubine is really pitiful, she has been silent in the harem for so many years and finally had a child, but she let the noble lady kill her, this is really a sin!" ”
"But that's it, I didn't expect Your Majesty to just lower the status of the concubine without pain, I'm afraid this hurts the heart of the concubine!"
Concubine Jia glanced at Zheng Yinghuan intentionally or unintentionally, knowing that I was afraid that all this was really what the concubine meant.
I'm afraid that the pavilion concubine was too pampered and offended the concubine when she was pregnant, and this pavilion concubine herself is really, I'm afraid that she has forgotten what kind of character the concubine is, and she really thinks that she has a child in her belly, so she can not know the proportions?
"Okay," Zheng Yinghuan touched the hair on her ears impatiently, and after Chu Yu left, she made it to the top position.
"This sister should step back first, it's getting late, I'm afraid it will disturb your sister's dreams. Shugui and Concubine Jing stayed. ”
"Yes."
All the concubines can't wait to retreat, tonight's incident has nothing to do with them, so it's important to go back to sleep quickly!
"The concubine finally got her wish."
Xie Churou looked up at Zheng Yinghuan and showed a mocking smile, but more of it did feel cold.
His Majesty was so indifferent to her, she saw it all in her eyes, and the tenderness and sweetness of the past disappeared at this moment.
In fact, it's no wonder that the pavilion concubine is so excited and disregards the image, but because the child is gone, His Majesty has become so indifferent, as if the former favor does not exist, what a blow it should be for a woman!
"Pavilion Concubine, the scene of you holding your stomach to show off in front of the palace, the palace is still vivid, but in the blink of an eye, you are so down, it really makes the palace a little unaccustomed!"
Zheng Yinghuan asked people to take Chu Yi out, she didn't want her daughter to see her so domineering.
The pavilion concubine didn't dare to speak, and she was not a fool, how could she not see that this matter must have something to do with the concubine?
It's just that she really didn't expect that the concubine would have such a heavy hand!
"At the beginning, the concubines didn't know how to measure, but now the concubines have been punished, and please have a lot of concubines, don't worry about the concubines!"
The pavilion concubine took a deep breath and endured the weakness of her body and knelt on the ground again, she had already clearly realized that this time was different from the past, and she did not have half the confidence to be arrogant in front of the concubine.
can only honestly bow her head and admit her mistakes, only in this way can the concubine lose a little anger, if the concubine's anger is not eliminated, she will really be sad in the future.
"Pavilion, if only you had been so sensible earlier, why did you get to this point today?"
Zheng Yinghuan sighed leisurely, looking at the pavilion concubine who was sitting on the ground and trembling in pain like a joke.
I knew why I had to do it now, if the concubine was still respectful and honest in front of herself after she had a child, then she wouldn't mind letting the concubine give birth to the child safely.
But this pavilion concubine is really higher than the sky and has no knowledge, and she will wait until the future to bring the child down and then be proud, look at the child is gone now, and there will be no children in the future, this is the price to pay for your ignorance!
"Concubine Niangniang..."
The concubine wanted to say something more begging for mercy, but her stomach throbbed, making her speechless in pain.
"Okay, help the pavilion concubine in, don't shed blood in front of this palace, it's really bad luck to be so unlucky!"
Zheng Yinghuan waved her hand in disgust, and asked the palace people to pull the pavilion concubine up and help her in, the matter has been resolved, she doesn't want to see this eye-catching pavilion concubine, it will be a long time to clean up!
"Leave you two behind, you must know what this palace means, right?"
Zheng Yinghuan looked at Xie Ruyan and showed a provocative smile.
"The concubine knows."
Xie Ruya and Xie Churou bowed their heads.
"The noble lady is very sensible, knowing that he can't refute it, he quickly admit it, so as not to make His Majesty even more impatient, you are quite high in front of the palace on weekdays, and now you are still defeated under the palace?"
Zheng Yinghuan relieved his breath, he really felt that everything tonight made people feel like a spring breeze, and they all paid the price they deserved when they looked at the people they hated.
"Mother, good means."
Xie Ruyan couldn't help but be sarcastic, in fact, Zheng Yinghuan's methods have not grown much after so many years, and they are not the same as at the beginning.
It can succeed every time, but His Majesty doesn't want to waste time on things in the harem, and if there is a satisfactory result, then it will be settled.
"Concubine Jing sometimes has something to say, but this palace wants to remind you, this time is different from the past, and you are not the concubine Xie who favored the harem at the beginning!"
Zheng Yinghuan said angrily, what she hated the most was Xie Ruya's appearance, she always felt that she was the most noble and different, and she always felt that she could surpass all the women in the harem, and she always looked so arrogant and unwilling to admit defeat.
No way!
Now Xie Ruya can only stand respectfully in front of herself, and she is the one who is in charge of the harem now!
"If the mother is fine, the concubines will retire first, the night is late, and the concubine will rest."
Xie Ruyan pulled Xie Churou up, saluted Zheng Yinghuan and turned to leave, they were afraid that they would be suffocated if they stayed any longer.
Zheng Yinghuan was in a good mood tonight, watching the two of them leave, she didn't say anything, she had already won too much, didn't she?
Now that he has beaten the pavilion concubine and Xie Churou like this, he is going to kill the chickens and monkeys to show the people in the harem.
She will always be the concubine who rules the harem, and the rest of the people can only submit, so it's best not to have their own careful thoughts, otherwise the pavilion concubines and a few of them will end!
