Chapter 346: Punishment for Kneeling (2)
Zhao Kezhen twitched the corners of her mouth, if she accused the emperor in person, she wouldn't say it, she wasn't stupid enough to do this. Zhao Kezhen stalked her neck and rubbed the shawl she was carrying on the crook of her arm: "Regardless of whether the matter is true or not, the Queen Mother has a plan to move forward." The Queen Mother asked her sister to kneel here and wait, so my sister was polite. This place is very clean, don't dislike it, sister, just kneel. ”
It's not that easy to get her on your knees!
"Mother Zhong, let's go. Won-hee turned around.
"Wei Yuanxi, you are presumptuous!" Zhao Kezhen pinched her thin waist, and her apricot eyes widened: "The Queen Mother announced that you kneel and wait, you dare to show off your power here, you don't take the Queen Mother in your eyes, right?"
"So what do you want?" Won-hee turned his head to look sideways at her.
"The Queen Mother asked you to kneel and wait here, but you didn't obey Yi's order, what's the reason?"
"Does the Queen Mother want to make the palace kneel, or do you Concubine Zhao want to make the palace kneel?"
Zhao Kezhen's face turned red, her eyes fluttered a few times, and she was a little short of breath: "What do you call this? Obviously, you don't abide by the palace rules, and you haven't asked the Queen Mother for several days." The Queen Mother just punished you for kneeling and waiting, but you dared to speak disrespectfully here. ”
"You don't talk to the palace about those idle whites, the palace asks you, is it the queen mother who makes the palace kneel, or do you Concubine Zhao want to make the palace kneel?" Yuan Xi stared at Zhao Kezhen intently, and repeated Fang Cai's words again.
Zhao Kezhen looked even more empty-hearted, Yan'er secretly pulled her clothes in the back, and Yuan Xi saw it all. Tongzhong's mother glanced at each other and said, "Since the Queen Mother is still bathing, let's retire first." ”
"You stop!" Zhao Kezhen stepped in front of Yuanxi in a few steps and blocked her way: "Wei Yuanxi, don't think that the emperor spoils you, you can be unscrupulous and tell you that there are still palace rules and ancestors in this palace, and it is not your turn to be presumptuous!"
"Palace rules and ancestral training, hmph, you talk to this palace about palace rules and ancestral training?" Yuan Xi sneered: "It's really hard for Concubine Zhao to remember what is called palace rules and ancestral training, that's good, this palace wants to ask for advice." In the Qiandi, what is the position of Concubine Zhao, and what is the position of the palace? Even if you are not the suzerain of Donglin, the palace is still the lord of Donglin County, what kind of identity are you? You are just an official lady, why do you show off your power in front of the palace. When you see this palace, you don't know how to bow and kneel, and you dare to call the name of this palace, you don't have any respect, you are telling this palace, according to the palace rules and ancestral teachings, what crime should you be guilty of?"
"You!" Zhao Kezhen's face flushed, and she couldn't say why for a long time.
Since Concubine Zhao wants to pursue the palace, she might as well pursue herself, so as not to let outsiders gossip and say that Concubine Zhao is strict with others and lenient with herself. ”
"What are you talking about?!" Zhao Kezhen was angry, so he raised his hand.
Won-hee raised his chin slightly to meet her gaze. Mother Zhong stepped forward: "Concubine Zhao, what are you doing? Aren't you afraid of violating the palace rules and ancestral precepts? Besides, our master is still pregnant with the imperial heir in his womb, if he is shocked by Concubine Zhao and has a fetal gas, I am afraid that Concubine Zhao will not be able to afford it." ”
Ling'er also sneered: "Yan'er, I usually see that you are a very clever girl, why don't you have any eyesight?
Yan'er also felt that Zhao Kezhen was at a loss, and was afraid that she would blindly use force, but she was caught by Wei Yuanxi. wanted to pull her away first, but Zhao Kezhen was really excited by Mother Zhong's words, and refused to take a step. A pair of eyes stared at Yuan Xi's bulging lower abdomen and gritted his teeth. She is pregnant for the second time, but she is still a virgin!
"What's the matter, Concubine Zhao, you still don't get out of the way?" Mother Zhong held Yuan Xi's waist and chuckled: "The words have come to this point, if Concubine Zhao still doesn't give up, it will be really boring." If today's incident comes to the emperor, I'm afraid Concubine Zhao won't be able to hang on her face, right?"
Yan'er smiled and said, "Mother Zhong, why bother in front of the emperor? Punishing kneeling is the order of the queen mother, and it has nothing to do with our mother." Even if you want to tell the emperor, you don't care about my mother's affairs, my mother's mother just passed the word for the queen mother, how can she become a sinner? In short, this is the queen mother's will, Wei Niangniang loves to kneel or not, if we offend the queen mother, we can't control it. ”
"Niangniang, why do you say you are doing this? The Queen Mother just wants you to pass on a word, and you don't have to take it so seriously. Whether people are willing to obey Yi's will or not is also someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with us. Yan'er said, pushing Zhao Kezhen's arm: "Niangniang, if people want to leave, let them go, anyway, the person who disobeys the Queen Mother's will is not you." Why do you want to be so angry?"
Ling'er was just about to return the favor, but Yuanxi raised his hand to stop him: "Since it is the meaning of the Queen Mother, why can't the palace see the Queen Mother's person?"
"Hehe," Zhao Kezhen crooked her mouth, why didn't she see the Queen Mother, if there was no Queen Mother, who was she who was slapped and cried just now? Zhao Kezhen looked at her coldly: "Don't you say that the palace has forgotten, you just dared to beat the Queen Mother." The Queen Mother is an elder, even if it is a cat or a dog in the Queen Mother's palace, it will never be harmed, you dare to beat the palace maid in the Queen Mother's palace, isn't this a great disrespect to the Queen Mother?"
"The Queen Mother?" Yuan Xi glanced at Mother Zhong and smiled: "This palace can look around the North Palace, and I can't find a Queen Mother." Are you so fooled when you are in this palace? There are some strange faces up and down in this palace, where did they come from? Where did the queen mother go to the former palace maids? They won't all be killed by Xiao Rongshen when the palace is broken, right?"
Zhao Kezhen was speechless for a while, the corners of her lips twitched violently, and she looked at Yan'er with a little weakness. As soon as they mentioned the word Xiao Rongshen, they panicked, remembering that on the day when Xiao Rongshen forced the palace to kill the king, it was they, together with Xiao Rongshen's men, who secretly executed all the maids in the Queen Mother's palace. The bones of those palace maids were piled up, and they were quietly pulled out of the palace by wooden carts at night, and they were buried in a mass grave.
Thinking that there was no proof of death, Zhao Kezhen gradually calmed down: "I don't understand what my sister said." What Xiao Rongshen has done in the palace, how can I know? The palace maids who have changed in this palace are all personally selected by the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother can pick whoever she wants, what, are you questioning the Queen Mother's vision?"
"Let's stop for the mourning family!"
The little palace maid who was beaten just now still had a layer of crimson on her face, and sobbed and helped the queen mother out. The Queen Mother glanced at Zhao Kezhen angrily, and looked at Yuan Xi helplessly.
"Didn't the mourning family want you to kneel and wait, what are you doing outside the palace?"
Zhao Kezhen saw the Queen Mother and knew that she was helping herself. With a look of pride on his face, he helped the Queen Mother's hand and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother, it's not that the sons are deliberately arguing here, it's really Sister Yuanxi who blatantly ignores the Queen Mother's decree and is still rapping with the sons here." ”
"Kneel!" the Queen Mother's tone was a little heavy.
Yuan Xi can openly sing against Zhao Kezhen, but he can't openly refute the face of the Queen Mother. He knelt down and said, "My son asks the queen mother to say goodbye." ”
"Sister Yuanxi, the queen mother punished you for kneeling, not to ask you to say hello to the queen mother. Zhao Kezhen held the hand of the Queen Mother, pinched it expressionlessly, and asked softly, "Is it not, the Queen Mother?"
"Yes. The Queen Mother's voice was a little vain: "Do you dare to openly disobey the edict of the mourning family? If you dare to beat the palace maid of the mourning family, you will be punished to kneel here, reflect on it, and only then can you get up." ”
Mother Zhong was startled and knelt until the sun set, didn't she mean to want Yuanxi's life? She was pregnant with a child in her womb, and she was already delicate. If you kneel for four or five hours, you have to have a miscarriage.
"The Queen Mother, my master did not deliberately miss the Queen Mother's greeting time, but she was really unwell, with a sour stomach and nausea, and it was difficult to close her eyes at night. Every time I stay up until dawn, I can close my eyes slightly. It's really unbearable, and it's not that I don't respect the Queen Mother. I beg the Queen Mother to see that the master is pregnant with the Queen Mother's grandson, and if she wants to punish the slave and maid!"
"It's okay, if your master does something wrong, it's because you, a slave, can't mention it, and you should be punished. Mother Zhong said a word, as if she had found the queen mother under the steps, and she hurriedly said: "The mourning family will punish you for kneeling here......"
"The Queen Mother. Zhao Kezhen looked at the Queen Mother solemnly: "How can there be a rule that slaves and maids are punished for their masters? If the masters in this palace make mistakes in the future, they will all be pushed on the slaves and maids, then who will care about the palace rules and ancestral training!"
"Concubine Zhao, the palace rules and ancestral training have clear provisions that if the master makes a mistake, he will have his own slave and maid to be punished. Since the founding of Taizu, there have been many such precedents in this palace, and it did not start from the generation of slaves and maids. If you follow the rules, isn't it considered to be strict in following the palace rules and ancestral precepts?" Mother Zhong bowed down and kowtowed to the Queen Mother, and said, "Please let the Queen Mother and the slave be punished on behalf of the master." ”
Zhao Kezhen raised her hand and slapped Zhong's mother in the face, this slap was not small, and she couldn't help but leave five finger marks on Zhong's mother's face, and even she herself was shocked to the point that her hands were numb. Zhao Kezhen retracted her hand stupidly and glared at Mother Zhong: "Bastard, if you dare to commit a crime, you can't distinguish between dignity and inferiority." Hmph, is this the rule of Zichen Palace? A slave and maid dare to speak in front of their master?"
Mother Zhong was beaten, this was the first time, not only Yuanxi was surprised, but even the Queen Mother was stunned.
"Concubine Zhao, ...... are you" The Queen Mother wanted to reprimand a few words, but she really couldn't afford to provoke Zhao Kezhen, and the words that came to her mouth were swallowed back by him raw.
Yuan Xi suddenly stood up and faced Zhao Kezhen in the face, and as soon as he raised his hand, it was a strong slap. Zhao Kezhen only felt a buzzing sound in her right ear, which almost knocked her out and fell on her back.
Zhao Kezhen covered the right half of her face, and felt that her flesh was painful, she looked at Yan'er: "The face of this palace ......"
Zhao Kezhen's face was swollen in an instant, just like a longevity peach that had just come out of the pot, and the puff puff was still hot and hot.
The Queen Mother was on the side, shocked by two slaps in succession. Nowadays, are the younger generation like wolves and tigers? It is completely different from the ladies of her generation, and the slaps are particularly loud.
