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

Princess Yongning had already retreated to the door. She wanted to grab her father's sleeve and say a few words to tell him not to be so serious and not to look at her with such strange eyes.

But Lu Zhaolin turned around, walked to the top and sat down again, saying: "It is my decree that Princess Yongning has an arrogant temperament and does not know how to reflect. She will be executed on thirty big boards and divided into five days."

Jiang Shiying almost laughed when she heard his order. Thirty big boards sounded impressive, but only six boards a day.

Among those execution prisoners, which one is not a human sperm? Who dares to do something harsh to Princess Yongning?

After five days of slapping, I'm afraid it may look serious, but it's actually not as painful as when her toe accidentally stubbed the corner of the table.

Princess Yongning didn't understand this. She only understood that her father wanted to punish her severely.

She felt sadly that her father no longer loved me.

At the same time, I thought bitterly that it was all Chungui's fault, and that she was not as obedient as others. Sooner or later I have to let her know who has the final say in this harem. If the pure noble concubine does not learn well, then she will die.

Thinking like this, her eyes looked at Jiang Shiying as if they were quenched with poison.

Jiang Shiying secretly ridiculed her for being stupid and vicious, but on the surface, she pled anxiously for her: "Your Majesty, I don't think this punishment is appropriate. The princess is her daughter's family after all. If she goes down to thirty, I'm afraid she will be beaten." Bad health."

Lu Zhaolin said: "Ah Ying, I know you are kind-hearted. Yongning went too far today, but you are still thinking about her and don't want her to be punished. But I have made up my mind. This child cannot be punished."

But Jiang Shiying shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that I can't bear the princess' punishment. I'm very narrow-minded. I mentioned to you before that I want the princess to be punished."

But if the thirty-year blow hits the princess, wouldn't it be His Majesty who feels bad for her? Ah Ying doesn’t want to see His Majesty suffer. "

The second half of the unspoken sentence was that if there really was such a stubborn execution eunuch who brought the problem to Princess Yongning, I am afraid that the dog emperor would immediately turn his anger on her.

Lu Zhaolin's expression seemed to be moving, and he heard Jiang Shiying say again: "The princess was certainly at fault for what happened today. But I feel that there are others who made more serious mistakes."

Lu Zhaolin raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

He originally thought that Jiang Shiying was referring to Qi Concubine and the official daughter Su, but what Jiang Shiying wanted to do was to take this opportunity to remove Princess Yongning's right-hand man.

Just listen to her: "It stands to reason that when a princess goes out, she must be accompanied by at least four or five people. But the princess only took Ziding with her today. According to what the official lady Su said, she did the same thing when she met the princess two days ago. So. Ah Ying believes that the first thing to do is to punish the people around the princess for their laziness."

Hearing what she said, Lu Zhaolin nodded in approval.

Jiang Shiying continued: "Princess heard false rumors from the Su family two days ago, and was provoked to do what she did today. In the past two days, the people around the princess have not fulfilled their duties to persuade or relieve the princess. , and failed to inform His Majesty of the matter in time, causing the princess to make a big mistake today.

Fortunately, Ah Ying is good at swimming in water, otherwise, Ah Ying and the princess would both die in Jing Lake today. "

Hearing this, Lu Zhaolin's face became serious.

After all, there are very few people in the harem who are as good as Jiang Shiying. If it were someone else today, Yongning would probably harm others and himself.

"Therefore, Ah Ying believes that the people around the princess need to be punished for their incompetence and carelessness."

As soon as she said these words, Ziding knew that His Majesty would never allow him to stay with the princess again.

Sure enough, Lu Zhaolin said: "Yao Xingde, you personally select a new group of palace servants for Yongning."

Yao Xingde said "Promise" and then asked: "What about these people who are serving the princess now?"

Lu Zhaolin said without hesitation: "Those who have come to escape the summer heat will stay in the palace to do some chores. Those who stay in the palace will all go to Yeting."

Hearing this, Ziding said anxiously: "Your Majesty, all the slaves are personally selected by the Queen and placed next to the princess."

Lu Zhaolin glanced at her and asked, "When Su Gengyi provoked Yongning, were you with him?"

Ziding felt guilty when he saw her, but she could only nod: "It's a slave."

There was a chill in Lu Zhaolin's eyes: "You can't persuade Yongning, and you can't report it to me in time, so what shame do you have to mention the Queen here? The Queen puts you next to Yongning, and this is how you serve her?"

Without waiting for Ziding to defend himself, he heard him say: "Pull him out and hit him fifty times."

"No!" Princess Yongning stopped in front of Ziding and begged Lu Zhaolin: "Father, my daughter knows she is wrong. Don't let anyone beat Ziding."

When Lu Zhaolin heard what she said, his face became even colder: "Didn't you hear what I said?"

After the words fell, Yao Xingde and other internal guards quickly dragged Ziding out of the house and executed him in the yard.

Princess Yongning continued to plead for mercy, but she heard Jiang Shiying say: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion for the princess' punishment."

Hearing what she said, Princess Yongning became even more angry: "Not only did you let my father beat my people, but you also punished me?"

Jiang Shiying seemed to have not heard her question and said to Lu Zhaolin: "Aying feels that the princess is not bad in nature, but she is a bit arrogant.

The cane punishment that Your Majesty mentioned before will not only harm the princess's body, but may also make her more stubborn and unable to realize her mistakes.

Ah Ying thought that it would be better to find a way to temper the princess's temperament. "

Hearing what she said, Lu Zhaolin pondered for a moment, and then said, "What you said makes some sense. But if we don't punish her severely and just temper her temper, I'm afraid you will be wronged."

Jiang Shiying sneered in her heart, "Do you want to hear me say that I am not wronged?"

However, there was no sign of it on his face, and he just said: "I have said that I am stingy, but your majesty is the only one who doesn't believe it. Although this torture is not as painful as the cane punishment, it is not as comfortable either."

Lu Zhaolin said: "Tell me how to temper her temper."

Jiang Shiying looked at Yao Xingde and asked, "Eunuch Yao, is there a Buddhist hall in this palace?"

Yao Xingde lowered his head and replied: "There is one, just behind the waves in the breeze, it's called Tanxintang."

Jiang Shiying turned to Lu Zhaolin and said, "The method A Ying mentioned is to prepare a vat of Buddha beans in Tanxin Hall, and then prepare an empty vat, and then the princess will pick up the Buddha beans one by one into the empty vat with her own hands. In the jar. Before you finish picking it up, please ask the princess to live in Tanxintang every day and not eat meat or fish."

Lu Zhaolin nodded: "This is indeed a good way to temper your temper."

Jiang Shiying thought to herself, why not just temper your temper?

With Princess Yongning's temperament, she doesn't even need to pick up Buddha beans in a quiet place like the Buddhist hall. Just let her sit there quietly for an hour or two, and her heart will feel like there are ten thousand ants crawling around. It's like crawling around.

Picking up Buddha beans requires the most care and meditation.

Can Princess Yongning calm down? impossible. She would only become more and more itchy and irritable.

After picking up a large vat of Buddha beans, not only will her temper not be smoothed out, but she will be driven half crazy.

This punishment seems to be neither painful nor itchy, gentle and bloodless, but for Princess Yongning, it is the right medicine.

However, in the eyes of someone with a stable nature like Lu Zhaolin, picking up Buddha beans is too easy. Compared with the thirty-big board, it was as if he had let this matter go easily.

He stood up, walked to Jiang Shiying, took her hand, sighed and said, "I still feel wronged to you."

The words were full of heartache for Jiang Shiying.

But Jiang Shiying was sensitively aware that he was actually relieved in his heart. He was happy that she took a step back and did not have to put him in the dilemma between his beloved concubine and his beloved daughter.

Jiang Shiying blinked: "Since Your Majesty feels that you have wronged me, I have a small request."

"You said."

Jiang Shiying said: "When Princess Yongning finishes picking up the Buddha beans, Aying hopes that the princess will write a letter of apology in her own hand and read it out in front of all the concubines in the harem on the day of greeting."

Lu Zhaolin nodded in agreement: "I agree."

The two of them reached an agreement. As for whether Princess Yongning was willing or not, no one in this room cared.
