Just as Dai Jia was about to speak, Ling Ruo said again: "Get up and sit down first, and then tell me slowly."
"Yes." Dai Jia held Caixia's hand and stood up and sat down, and said with tears: "I would like to report to the Queen Mother, because I once testified for Concubine Qian, and then when Shu Mulu was banned, I took her maid away.
Sent to other places as errands. Because of this, Mr. Shumulu held a grudge and has been
I have caused trouble for my concubine. I provoked and caused trouble several times and insulted my concubine. Today, I deliberately sprinkled bird's nest porridge on my concubine, causing her to be burned." After that, she rolled up her sleeves to reveal the burnt area.
At this moment, blisters have appeared, "Look, my dear, she is so vicious that she wants to burn me to death."
"How could such a thing happen?" Her words surprised Ling Ruo. She knew that the Shumulu family would definitely not be resigned to this resurrection and would seek revenge. However, she did not expect that the Shumulu family would be so direct and forceful in killing the Dai Jia family.
Although the humiliation is to this extent, it is very relieving, but at the same time it is stupid. Such behavior can easily fall into the blame of others and hurt others as well as yourself. Mr. Shumulus should not be like this.
Dai Jia didn't think so much, she just thought about what she was saying, "How dare I deceive Concubine Xi? After Shumulu's restoration this time, she was really arrogant. Not to mention Concubine, even Concubine Xi."
I didn’t take it seriously, she even slandered my empress in front of my concubines.”
"Oh? What did she say?" Ling Ruo noticed that Dai Jia's eyes flickered slightly when she said the last sentence, guessing that there was something wrong in her words.
Mrs. Dai Jia lowered her head and muttered: "Shi Mulu's words are so rude. I really don't dare to offend my empress's ears."
Ling Ruo glanced at her and already knew in her heart, she stopped asking further questions and said, "What are those concubines here for? Do you want me to punish the Shumulu clan?"
When she mentioned this, Dai Jia's tears fell again, and she cried: "I didn't want to trouble the empress, but I was bullied by her so much that I had no choice but to ask the empress to make the decision. Otherwise, Shu Mulu
I don’t know what trouble this arrogant character will cause.”
Ling Ruo sipped her tea and said nothing, but Shui Xiu spoke quickly and said: "Concubine Cheng is the empress in charge of Jingren Palace. Even if you can't cure Hui Guiren, you won't have to be controlled by her."
This sentence made Mrs. Dai Jia's face turn red, and she said with some embarrassment: "If it is done openly, I won't be afraid of it, but Mrs. Shumulu has always been good at doing one thing in front of others and doing another behind her back. No one knows what tricks she will play."
Shuixiu curled her lips and said nothing. It was really pitiful for Dai Jia to take the lead. Ling Ruo put down the tea cup and said seriously: "What happened this time, whether she did it intentionally or not, is her fault. Even if
When it comes to the emperor, she won't get any advantage, so Cheng Concubine can rest assured about this. However, Cheng Concubine
If you want to punish Hui Guiren for this crime, I'm afraid it will be difficult. You also see the emperor's favor for Hui Guiren. Even if I say it in person, it may not be of any use, and she can easily explain it as unintentional.
It is a loss, so I would like to advise you not to fight for this breath, because in the end, it is very likely that the gain will outweigh the loss."
Dai Jiashi glanced at Ling Ruo and whispered: "I also know this, but after she spilled porridge all over me, something happened..."
"Is there anything else?" Ling Ruo looked at Dai Jia in surprise, waiting for her to finish.
Dai Jiashi hesitated for a while, then gritted her teeth and said: "At that time, Shumulu kept talking sarcastically in my ears and called me a rat. I was so angry that I picked up the empty bowl on the table and threw it at her, knocking her
forehead
It was smashed." At this point, she knelt down again and said in a panic: "I just made an unintentional mistake, but the Shumulu family insisted on this matter and said that I would report it to the emperor.
Death is certain."
Hearing this, Ling Ruo frowned and said: "It's not that I'm talking about you, Cheng concubine, you are an old man in the palace after all. You have been with the Holy Master longer than I have. How can you still be so restless?"
Angry. According to my opinion, the reason why Mrs. Shumulu said so much is to anger you, but you really fell into her trap."
After hearing Ling Ruo's words, Dai Jia regretted even more and said with tears: "I know I was wrong. I will think twice before doing anything in the future and never act impulsively again. But this time the mistake has been made, I can only do it."
I have the audacity to come and beg you, please, I must save my concubine."
Ling Ruo frowned and said, "If Mr. Shumulu really wants to hold on to this matter, he will definitely make a fuss in front of the emperor. Even if I want to help you, I'm afraid I'm powerless."
"No, the emperor has always trusted the empress. As long as the empress is willing to say a few words to the concubine, Shu Mulu's plot will definitely not succeed." Now the Dai Jia family only has Ling Ruo as a life-saving straw. How can she give up?
Begging hard.
Ling Ruo guessed Shu Mulu's thoughts better than Dai Jia's. This woman had a strong desire for revenge. Framing Dai Jia was probably just the first step in her plan. There would be a second and third step later, until all the victims were eliminated.
She wants to get rid of everyone who has crossed her, and both she and Liu are her targets.
As for the fact that she picked Cheng Concubine to attack first, it was simply because Cheng Concubine was the weakest and easiest to deal with, and was the most suitable to use as various openings to defeat her.
However, she did not expect that the Shumulu clan would take action so quickly. She was probably afraid that they would join forces to deal with it, so she acted first.
Seeing that Ling Ruo remained silent, Dai Jia's heart dropped. Could it be that Concubine Xi really planned to stand by and watch this time? If she didn't plead for her, Yinzhen would definitely demote her to the cold palace in a rage. No, that's not allowed.
She can't go to the cold palace!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Dai Jia stepped forward on her knees, pulled Ling Ruo's clothes hard and cried bitterly: "I know that your Majesty is in a difficult situation, but besides your Majesty, I don't know who else to ask for help. Please remember me.
I have known you for more than 20 years, and I saved my life out of love. From now on, I will only obey the orders of my empress, and will never dare to go against her."
Ling Ruo lowered his head and said: "You are also the master of the first palace after all. How can you be kneeling on the ground like this and crying non-stop. Shuixiu, why don't you help me get up quickly?"
Dai Jia refused to get up despite any words, and sobbed: "If the empress is not willing to show mercy to me, I will let you kneel and die here."
Ling Ruo said with sympathy: "When did I say that I won't save you? But now there is no news from the emperor. How can you ask me to save you? Are you going to tell the emperor about it yourself? That is really useless.
Things have become troublesome."
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!" Dai Jia was overjoyed when he heard this and kowtowed repeatedly. As long as Ling Ruo was willing to take action, most of his crisis would have been resolved.
After Dai Jia stood up, Ling Ruo said again: "You can go back. If the emperor has something to say, I will try my best to put in a good word for you. However, whether the emperor can change his mind is beyond our control.
If it doesn’t work out, I hope you won’t blame me.”
