After staying in the palace for half a month, the Emperor Qing Hall has always been the place where women in the palace stare at and linger. Ye Yiran lives in the Emperor Qing Hall, and it is inevitable that he will be resented by others.
At noon that day, Ye Yiran went to the corner of the imperial garden again, where the big maple tree was, to practice beating leaves.
Little did she know that she was being targeted because this was a forbidden area set up by the Queen Mother. Someone immediately reported it to the Emperor and then went to complain to the Queen Mother.
When the queen mother's sedan arrived at the imperial garden, the emperor's chariot also arrived. All the masters in the palace called out. Except for the emperor's concubine, who looked worried, everyone else looked proud.
The Queen Mother's face immediately darkened. The Emperor helped the Queen Mother get out of the sedan chair and said, "Mother, I have just learned about this. Princess Xiang rarely enters the palace, and she doesn't know that this is a forbidden area. I hope the Queen will not argue with the younger generation."
All the concubines saluted the Queen Mother, who snorted coldly: "Who first discovered that Princess Xiang had entered the forbidden area?"
Thinking this was an opportunity to make meritorious deeds, the concubine Jade who was the first to discover this matter stood up and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, I was walking around the Imperial Garden and happened to see Princess Xiang heading this way."
"Which palace are you from?"
"The concubine is the jade concubine of Zhengyang Palace"
The Queen Mother asked with mixed emotions: "You saw her going in but didn't tell her it was a forbidden area. The Ai family would like to know what you are worried about?"
Jade Concubine's expression changed, but she still wanted to quibble: "When I returned to the Queen Mother, I called out, but she might not have heard..."
"So you invited all the masters in the palace to watch the fun?"
"I don't dare to..."
The Queen Mother has always been resolute in her methods, and she has never been merciful to those she didn't like!
"According to the Ai family's decree, the jade concubine disrupted the peace of the harem and was demoted to a palace maid and sent to the Huanyi Bureau!"
This ending was beyond everyone’s expectation
The emperor's concubine was even more worried about Ye Yiran's safety. The queen mother severely punished those who reported it. Wouldn't it be even worse for Ye Yiran, the person who broke into the forbidden area?
Regardless of her status, the imperial concubine hurriedly interceded for Ye Yiran, "The Queen Mother, it was my concubine who kept Princess Xiang in the palace. It's my fault that she doesn't understand the rules. Please ask the Queen Mother to arrange a meeting with me online."
Discipline her so she doesn’t make such mistakes again.”
Someone who breaks into forbidden areas will naturally be punished, not to mention in front of so many people in the palace. If they are not punished, then where is the prestige of the Queen Mother?
The Queen Mother nodded, "The Imperial Concubine and the Ai family went back to Shou'an Palace to copy scriptures as punishment! After Princess Xiang came out, let her go to Shou'an Palace to receive the punishment!"
The concubines and concubines looked at the Queen Mother in surprise. The person who reported the report was punished so harshly. How could he not be punished for breaking into forbidden areas?
The Queen Mother added: "If anyone breaks into the forbidden area again, the Aijia will personally wait for him!"
