The emperor punished Concubine Li in front of Concubine De and others.

However, the punishment was lenient.

No one present was stupid. They naturally knew that the emperor was punishing Concubine Li on the surface, but in his heart he supported her in her actions.

Although Wei Liuying is not a good person.

But the emperor was indeed petty and sinister.

Concubine Li, for the sake of her own wealth and glory, cruelly attacked a weak woman who had no grudge against her.

Yang Guifei, Defei and Gaofei all sneered at the actions of the emperor and Li Fei.

Concubine De and Concubine Gao were used to keeping their heads down and were not brave enough to say anything about it.

Just stood aside with his head down.

Yang Guifei didn't want to care about Wei Liuying at all.

She also liked to see Wei Liuying in trouble.

Princess Xin'er and Prince An also want to see Wei Liuying suffer misfortune.

They were also aware of what Wei Liuying had done to Fang Ling in the past.

Now, Wei Liuying has ended up like this, which can be considered as retribution.

So it was impossible for them to speak for Wei Liuying.

After Concubine Li left, the emperor slowly lay back on the bed, closed his eyes and rested.

Yang Guifei stepped forward and bowed.

"Your Majesty, I feel a little unwell and want to go back to the palace to rest."

The emperor just raised his hand without opening his eyes.

"You are in a heavy condition, go back and rest early."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yang Guifei bowed again and walked away slowly, supported by Xing'er.

She now puts all her thoughts on the baby in her belly.

She doesn't have the energy to compete for favor.

Moreover, the emperor clearly likes beautiful women.

How could she, who was pregnant, compete with the concubine who was in her prime and could sleep with him every day?

She didn't have to put in any effort and could be more relaxed.

Princess Xin'er and Prince An left soon after.

Finally, Concubine De and Concubine Gao stayed to take care of the patient.

Concubine Li returned to Jiao'e Palace.

Concubine Zhao and Concubine Sun were waiting for her at the door early.

They had already heard that Concubine Li was punished by the Emperor.

They waited for her to come back early just to make fun of her.

"Hey, the queen is back?"

When Concubine Li came back, Concubine Sun hurriedly went to greet her and bowed.

“I heard that Your Majesty did something wrong and made His Majesty unhappy, so she was fined half a year’s salary.

Tsk tsk tsk…

Madam, why are you so careless in doing things?

We are sisters. If you are short of money in the future, you can ask me for it.

I don’t have much, but I can still afford ten or five taels.”

As she spoke, Concubine Sun stuffed the two pieces of silver that Concubine Li had given her into her hands.

"Consider this as a consolation gift from me, your sister.

After all, no one can always be favored by His Majesty, right?

It is normal for His Majesty to punish you.

Madam, please don’t let it get to your head…”

Concubine Sun said this while laughing.

Snapped…

But before she could finish her words, Concubine Li slapped her hard on the face.

"How dare you! Who gave you the courage to speak to me like this?

Your Majesty, no matter how you punish me.

I am still a concubine, and my status and position are there. How can a noble like you act so rudely in front of me?

If it happens again, it won’t just be a slap in the face.”

The hand that Concubine Li used to fan Noble Lady Sun was holding two pieces of silver.

With one slap, the two pieces of silver directly cut two deep bloody marks on Concubine Sun's delicate cheek.

"what…"

Concubine Sun screamed and covered her bloody face.

Shocked and frightened, he stared at Concubine Li in disbelief.

"How dare you destroy my face?"

"You have already ridden over my head, do I have to shrink my neck and let you insult me?

If I indulge you once, you will be more presumptuous next time.

If others see this, they will think that I am weak and can be bullied.

If you dare to offend me, you should be punished."

After saying that, Concubine Li threw the blood-stained silver coins in her hand directly at Concubine Sun's feet, and then strode towards her own bedroom.

"You have ruined my face, I will report you to His Majesty.

Woo woo woo...

My face... oooooo..."

Concubine Sun screamed and her hands, which were covering her face, trembled continuously.

When Concubine Zhao saw the scene, she felt a surge of fear.

She originally wanted to make fun of Concubine Li.

Fortunately, she waited and watched for a while.

Otherwise, he probably wouldn't get anything good from Concubine Li.

With lingering fear in her heart, she lowered her head and respectfully sent Concubine Li back to her bedroom.

After Concubine Li had gone far away, she stepped forward to support Concubine Sun.

“How’s your face?

Please ask the imperial physician to come and take a look, and make sure there is no scar left."

Lady Sun shook her head and said:

“I will go to His Majesty to make the decision for me.

Concubine Li had just dealt a cruel hand to the former Concubine Gong, which displeased His Majesty.

As soon as he turned around, he wanted to destroy my face again.

I want your Majesty to see the wound on my face with his own eyes."

Upon hearing this, Lady Zhao advised with some disapproval:

"Sister, don't be impulsive.

If you go to see His Majesty in this state, it will be impolite in front of the palace.

It would be bad if His Majesty blames me then."

Lady Sun disagreed.

“Your Majesty has always been kind and compassionate to me.

Seeing me injured, he would feel sad.

At the same time, you can see the true face of Concubine Li more clearly.

After knowing that she is a cruel and vicious woman, he might just dislike her."

Concubine Sun's words were spoken with great confidence.

Lady Zhao did not agree.

"Sister, let's find a doctor first to bandage the wound on your face.

Then make plans.

After all, His Majesty's favorite is Concubine Li.

You won't get any advantage if you go and sue Concubine Li directly."

Concubine Sun scoffed at Concubine Zhao's good advice.

"If you don't dare to go, I'll go by myself."

After saying this, Concubine Sun shook off Concubine Zhao's hand and left without looking back.

Concubine Zhao looked at her leaving back, and a strange smile flashed across her face.

Let them fight it out.

No matter who wins or loses, she can reap the benefits.

It would be best if Concubine Sun wins, because Concubine Li has a bad temper and likes to put on airs, and she is smarter and not easy to deal with.

But Concubine Sun is naive, impulsive, and not very smart.

However, it seems unlikely that she could defeat Concubine Li.

Concubine Zhao sighed, shook her head gently, and went back to her room to drink tea.

On the emperor's side, Concubine De served him some medicine and he lay down to rest.

"Your Majesty, Lady Sun requests to see you."

Zhou Fu walked in, knelt on the ground and reported in a low voice.

The emperor was a little tired and waved his hand.

"If she wants to come and take care of the patient, there is no need for now.

It is enough for me to have Concubine De and Concubine Gao by my side now."

"Your Majesty, Concubine Sun has wounds on her face and is crying like a pear blossom in the rain, so pitiful.

She came here to ask His Majesty to make the decision for her."

When the emperor heard this, he frowned and said impatiently:

"Let her in."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhou Fu agreed, stood up and walked out.
