The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

After Jingshu woke up, she lazily got up and had lunch.

After lunch was finished, she took a walk in the courtyard for a while to eat, and then ordered Xiu Qing to call all the people from Yicui Palace to gather in the courtyard.

Zitang moved the chair out and Jingshu sat there. Liuer made a cup of jasmine tea and gave it to her.

The concubines in the palace have different positions, and the number of palace servants serving around them is also different.

For example, when she was a concubine, she was served by six maids and four eunuchs. Now, as a noble concubine, she is served by twelve maids and eight eunuchs.

However, Lu Zan made an exception and specially transferred four tall and skilled eunuchs from the imperial palace to protect her, lest Concubine Xie like before would dare to kill Jing Jing openly with a dagger. Something happened to Shu.

It can be said that Yicui Palace is full of people inside and outside.

Excluding the four eunuchs who came from the imperial court, Xiu Qing, Zi Tang, Liu'er, and Xiao Cui, among the remaining sixteen people, some were old people who had served in Yicui Palace before, but most of them were the ones she returned to. After the palace, people transferred from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Now the old man only has two palace maids and two eunuchs left. They all used to work outside the palace. Chen Xiao, the eunuch who used to be in charge of Yicui Palace, was later transferred to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and now works with Cui Huazhang, the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. , but the clever little eunuch Li Yao stayed.

At this moment, everyone was called to a place, and they were a little confused when they saw that the aloof concubine was only drinking tea and not talking.

After returning to the palace, when Jingshu was with a few close maids, she joked and joked without the airs of a noble concubine, and behaved quite approachable.

Therefore, the newcomers to Yicui Palace all felt that she had a soft personality and was easy to talk to.

But in this harem, what does it mean to be easy to talk to?

Those of low status are easy to bully.

Those in high positions are called fools.

In addition, Jingshu did not enter the palace through a formal draft, nor did she come from the aristocratic circle of the capital. Although she was the daughter of the governor of the northwest, she had been lost for many years. She was probably not well-educated. Apart from Xiuqing, the confidants around her were also The other three were also brought from Saibei. In the eyes of these palace people, they were like people coming from the countryside into the city, and they were not looked down upon.

At this time, a eunuch had the courage to ask without much respect: "The imperial concubine has called the servants here, but what are your instructions? The servants still have a lot of work to do."

Hearing this, Jing Shu handed the teacup in her hand to Liu'er, and then smiled gently at the eunuch: "What's your name?"

"As for the queen, my name is Xiao Bangzi." The eunuch replied quickly, with a smile on his face.

"Xiao Bangzi, very good." Jingshu smiled slightly, with a gentle and harmless expression.

"Come here!" However, Zitang said immediately.

She gave the order, and the four skilled eunuchs immediately stepped forward and held Xiao Bangzi down.

"My Majesty, my Majesty, what are you doing! What mistake did this slave make! This slave is a eunuch transferred from the Ministry of Internal Affairs! My Majesty has no right to punish me!"

Xiao Bangzi thought she was going to give her a reward for praising him for being good, but he didn't expect that he was directly held down, but he shouted loudly with a look of dissatisfaction.

"Don't have the right to resign?"

Jing Shu seemed to have heard some extremely ridiculous joke and immediately sneered, "You really are a newbie here and don't understand the rules of the harem. How dare you bully me?"

Xiao Bangzi struggled twice more, but after hearing her words, he still looked dissatisfied.

"You said that I have no right to punish you because you were transferred from the Ministry of Internal Affairs? So today I am determined to punish you. Let's see if anyone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs will come to complain for you."

Jing Shu said, and asked Xiu Qing to go to the House of Internal Affairs to send a message, "Go and tell Eunuch Cui that I want to deal with a eunuch transferred from the House of Internal Affairs. If he feels that I have no right to deal with it, he can call someone to pick him up." Walk."

"My servant obeys the order." Xiu Qing received the order, glanced at the little Bangzi with disgust, and went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send a message.

Xiao Bangzi still looked arrogant.

Since he was assigned to work in the imperial concubine's palace by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he naturally had some connections.

After a while, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent someone to pick him up. Let's see how Concubine Chen can still stand in this harem after word spreads that she can't even handle a slave!

"As for you..."

Jing Shu sat there, leaning her forehead lazily, and glanced at him condescendingly, "How dare a dog slave yell in front of me? Such a disrespectful person, if the next one offends the next one, he will be punished with a stick!"

"Call me until...the Ministry of Internal Affairs sends someone to pick you up."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Bangzi suddenly became flustered. Apparently he didn't expect that Jingshu would dare to attack him even after he had already reported to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"My dear concubine! You can't hit the slave! The slave is from the Ministry of Internal Affairs! There is someone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs... ugh!"

However, before he could finish his words, Xiao Cui directly took a rag used to wipe pillars and stuffed it into his mouth and manually silenced him.

Little Bangzi was held down tightly by two tall and powerful eunuchs, while the other two eunuchs held paddles and spanked him alternately on his buttocks.

Jingshu continued to drink tea leisurely.

For a moment, the only sound in the yard was the muffled sound of boards hitting people's flesh, and the whimpering and screams of little Bangzi being gagged.

Not long after, he was spanked until his butt was bloody and bloody.

When the other slaves saw her, they all showed unbearable expressions, and they had a new understanding of Concubine Chen who looked kind and talkative.

At least, she is definitely not a mistress who is easy to fool.

No matter how you say it, she is a noble concubine.

Not long after, Xiu Qing came back, followed by several eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"This servant pays my respects to the noble concubine." As soon as the leading eunuch saw Jing Shu, he immediately knelt down and saluted.

"Get up." Jing Shu glanced at him and said lightly.

When Xiao Bangzi saw his godfather among the people coming, he quickly struggled with excitement and struggled with his remaining strength to get up and ask for help.

Unfortunately, he didn't wait for his godfather to come to his rescue. Instead, he watched helplessly as his godfather was pinned to the ground by other eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Your Majesty, this slave is here to make amends to your Majesty on the order of Eunuch Cui. Your Majesty, this slave is called Zhang Ming, and he is the deputy steward of the Internal Affairs Office. All the slaves sent to the Empress' Palace this time are all assigned by him. Yes, Cui Eunuch said that the servants transferred by Zhang Ming made the empress unhappy, so the two men were left to her disposal. Cui Eunuch also said that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is busy with affairs, and there are still matters assigned by the Holy Father to be handled recently, so he cannot do it in person today. Come here, and when he is free, come immediately to make amends to the queen."

The leading eunuch said respectfully.

"Eunuch Cui is interested." A faint smile appeared on Jing Shu's face.

When the eunuch saw this, he immediately looked flattered and hurriedly said many nice things. Then, Jingshu ordered him to give him a reward and send him away.

Zhang Ming was left kneeling there, looking at Xiao Bangzi who turned his head and looked at him in disbelief.

Both of them looked desperate.

Jing Shu glanced at the two men and sneered: "Let's beat them together, I'll beat them until they have no strength to move."
