The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother

Chapter 34 The imperial concubine was punished

When paying greetings this morning, I heard the imperial concubine say: "I originally thought that the concubine would be well-liked by His Majesty when she was hired into the palace. Unexpectedly,"

At this point, she chuckled twice, and then continued: "I don't know what Concubine Jia did that night. It has been several days, and His Majesty has not even entered the harem."

Jiang Shiying looked at her with clear eyes and asked, "My dear concubine, are you spying on the emperor?"

"Why did I spy on the Emperor?"

"My Majesty inquires about what is going on in Ganquan Palace, and she keeps an eye on His Majesty's whereabouts every day. What is this other than spying on the Emperor? I only know that His Majesty has not come to my Jingyang Palace, but I don't know if His Majesty has gone to other palaces." After saying that, Jiang Shiying looked at Concubine Hui: "Sister, do you know if your Majesty has gone to other palaces?"

Concubine Hui slowly shook her head: "Of course I don't know. I'm just a concubine, how can I know your Majesty's whereabouts?"

Jiang Shiying looked at Concubine Li again: "Concubine Li, do you know your Majesty's whereabouts these days? Do you know whether your Majesty has entered the harem?"

Li Fei said in her heart, not only I know, everyone knows.

But he couldn't say these words, so he shook his head and said: "I don't know, I am not that capable."

The other concubines, before Jiang Shiying asked them one by one, already took the initiative to say: "I don't know your Majesty's whereabouts either."

"Isn't that right? We have always been waiting for His Majesty's summons."

"Yes, yes, who is so bold as to keep an eye on His Majesty's whereabouts every day?"

It's also the concubine's fault. She's not very popular on weekdays, but Jiang Shiying's hat of spying on the emperor is indeed very big. So when she looked around, she saw that everything was adding insult to injury.

Jiang Shiying especially felt that it was not enough. She stood up, saluted the queen, and then said with a righteous face: "Empress, the imperial concubine has a noble status. She should be a role model for concubines, but now she is spying on the emperor. Please punish the imperial concubine. To correct the palace rules."

The concubines who were chirping just now became mute in an instant.

It's not difficult to get them to chime in and say a few words, but they don't have the guts to ask the queen to punish the concubine.

But the lower-ranking concubines don't dare, but there are people in the concubine position who dare.

Concubine Li stood up and saluted the queen, saying, "Your Majesty, I second your proposal."

Something flashed in Concubine Hui's eyes, and she stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although I cannot bear the punishment of the Imperial Concubine, spying on the Emperor's trace is a big deal. I only hope that after this incident, the Imperial Concubine will not make such a mistake again."

"Concubine Jing, Concubine Jin, what do you think?"

These two people originally wanted to pretend to be invisible, but unexpectedly they were named by the queen.

Concubine Jing stood up first and said: "I think that although the imperial concubine did something inappropriate, she did not deliberately spy on the emperor. The empress can only give small punishments and big warnings."

Concubine Jin agreed: "I think so too."

The two of them have always been good-natured people and rarely have any disagreements with others. It is not surprising to say this now.

The queen smiled, and the concubine Jia had given the knife to her. If she didn't take this opportunity to punish the concubine, wouldn't she have let down the concubine Jia's wishes?

"My noble concubine, as the first of the four concubines, you should strictly abide by the palace rules and set an example. However, now, you are relying on pampering and making a big mistake of spying on the emperor. As this is your first offender, I will only I’ll fine you to copy the palace rules three times, and you’ll be fined one month’s salary. Do you agree or not?”

This punishment is really not severe, but it is very embarrassing.

The imperial concubine has never suffered such a big loss since she entered the mansion and entered the palace.

She sat there, not moving or speaking, staring at Jiang Shiying, as if she wanted to eat her.

Jiang Shiying was not afraid at all and said to her: "Your Majesty, the Queen is waiting for your reply."

The imperial concubine first said to Jiang Shiying with a smile, "Jia concubine, you are very kind."

Then, without standing up, he leaned on the chair and said, "I accept my punishment."

He only receives punishment, but does not receive guilt.

The queen was not angry either. It was an unexpected surprise that she could justifiably let the imperial concubine be punished. Moreover, this was not a mandatory punishment for her as a queen, but the concubines below asked her to make the decision and correct the palace rules.

No matter how bad the concubine's mood is at this moment, the queen's mood will be as good as it is.

After the greetings were over, everyone had dispersed.

The painting fan beside the queen said: "This concubine seems to know the rules."

The queen nodded: "At least she knows the rules better than the imperial concubine."

At the gate of Fengyi Palace, Concubine Wan Gui looked at Jiang Shiying and said in a moderate voice: "Concubine Jia has such a pretty face. It's a pity that Your Majesty doesn't like this."

However, she saw that Jiang Shiying was not annoyed at all. Instead, she gave her a toothy smile and said, "Concubine Wangui understands Your Majesty so well. How many times does she accept your favor in a month? It must be at least seven or eight times."

Concubine Wan Gui's face instantly turned green. Since she entered the palace, she has never felt what it means to be favored. Not to mention being favored seven or eight times a month, Bodhisattva will bless you once a month.

The main reason why she was awarded the title of noble concubine was that she had a good family background and good luck. After a few favors, she successfully became pregnant with a dragon and gave birth to the fifth prince.

"There is no need to be so aggressive when concubine Jia speaks." Yu Zhaoyi has always had a quiet personality, but now she spoke for concubine Wan.

"Empress Zhaoyi is devoted to treating Concubine Wangui well. I don't know if Concubine Wangui deserves it." Jiang Shiying had something in her words.

Yu Zhaoyi only thought she was provoking, took one look at her, and took Concubine Wan Gui away.

Concubine Hui walked up to Jiang Shiying and said, "You have always been unreasonable and unforgiving. Today, I'm afraid you will offend the imperial concubine severely."

Jiang Shiying glanced sideways at her and said, "When the imperial concubine mocked me, my sister didn't speak up for me. Now she blames me for offending the imperial concubine."

After saying that, he threw up his sleeves and left.

Li Fei has long formed a new habit of watching the interaction between the two sisters at the gate of Fengyi Palace after greeting her every day.

At this time, I heard her say: "Empress Hui Fei is such a good sister."

After saying that, he sneered and left.

This side of Jingyang Palace.

Although Lu Zhaolin didn't call her again for many days, Jiang Shiying was not worried at all and lived a fulfilling life.

What a dog man, she wanted to see how long he could endure it.

Both Qiu Yu and Yu Chengyi had seen the relationship between her and Lu Zhaolin, and they weren't too worried about it.

A Yuan had always trusted her blindly, and seeing that she didn't care at all, he continued to live his life as usual.

The other palace people couldn't all be so calm.

"Empress, do you want to make some snacks or something and send them to Ganquan Palace?" Shuiyun asked with a worried look on her face while pouring tea.

"No need." Jiang Shiying shook her head: "How can I make snacks?"

"That day when Eunuch Yao came to present the reward, didn't he say that His Majesty was very interested in you? How come you haven't been seen for so many days?" Shui Yun was really puzzled and couldn't help complaining: "Your Majesty is really so, how could you I just leave you here without asking any questions."

"Shut up." Jiang Shiying shouted sternly: "Your Majesty, you can't complain? If you let me hear this again, you will go back and forth wherever you come from."

"This slave is also worried about your Majesty." Shui Yun defended in a low voice, and immediately closed her mouth under Jiang Shiying's stern gaze.

At this time, I heard a voice coming from the door.

"What's going on? Who made Ah Ying unhappy?"

Jiang Shiying turned around and said in surprise: "Your Majesty is here!"

Then without saluting, he ran two steps directly, threw himself into his arms, and said with a smile: "I have met your majesty."

But he was cursing in his heart, you are a bitch, you have arrived early tomorrow, you have been listening outside the door for a long time, and you still pretended not to know.

Lu Zhaolin hugged her softly, but he didn't think she was rude and asked: "I just arrived, and I heard you scolding the palace people."

Jiang Shiying glanced at Shui Yun and said: "The little palace lady saw that Your Majesty never came to see Ah Ying, so she thought that Ah Ying had fallen out of favor. Your Majesty has not been seen for so many days. Could it be that you have forgotten Ah Ying?"

As he spoke, his eyes glanced at him, and he was filled with vitality.

"How could I forget you? I was just busy in the past." Lu Zhaolin said sincerely, as if that was the truth.

In fact, she left Ganquan Palace that day, and he wanted to come to Jingyang Palace that night, but he resisted.

He has always exercised self-control when it comes to the lust of women in the harem.

Therefore, the more I felt that she was different, the more I lusted after her body, and the more I wanted to be close to her, the more I had to force myself not to think about her or see her.

Even after enduring it for ten days, he felt ridiculous.

Jiang Shiying sneered in her heart, Bah, I was busy with things in the past, and it didn't delay your participation in the palace election two days ago.

But she still had a smile on her face, and she pulled Lu Zhaolin to sit in front of the desk and said, "Your Majesty, just forget about Ying."

Then, happily tell him what he has done these days. It's like a child sharing a treasure with his friends.

Lu Zhaolin listened with a smile and echoed a few words from time to time. Then he remembered what Yao Xingde reported today and asked, "I heard that the noble concubine gave you trouble today?"
