Cai Ling hurriedly waved her hands and said: "No, I didn't want to snatch the cat. I was pushed out by someone." At this point, she pointed at Ying'er and said: "Ying'er was standing behind me at that time. She must have been there."
It was she who pushed the slave out."
Yinger looked innocent and said: "Master, I have never pushed Cai Ling. Besides, why did I push her so well?"
Su Shi nodded slightly and said to Cai Ling: "Yes, you insist that it was Ying'er who recommended it, but please tell me why she did this?"
Cai Ling was speechless for a moment, and after a while she stammered: "Slave... I don't know, but it really has nothing to do with me. Master... you believe me."
Ying'er glanced at her and said: "Master, this servant knows that she made a mistake before and was punished by the master to serve in the outer hall. Now that she sees the opportunity, she naturally wants to perform a meritorious service so that the master can change her mind and recall her again.
Waiting by your side."
Cai Ling said angrily: "You are talking nonsense. My master told me to return to my master before I came here. Why should I do this?" She looked at Su Shi eagerly, hoping that the latter would say a fair word for her, but Su Shi
The next words made her whole body feel cold, "When did I say this?"
You begged yourself and said that you wanted to continue to be with me. I felt soft-hearted for a while, so I temporarily agreed to you. I never thought that for your own selfish interests, you would waste your time caring about the safety of your second elder brother. After the failure, you would push the matter forward.
To Ying'er, Cai Ling, you really let me down."
Listening to Su's completely different words, Cai Ling, no matter how stupid she was, still picked up on the clues and said eagerly: "No, I didn't. It was you and Ying'er who deliberately wronged me!"
Su Shi said sternly: "It's ridiculous. One of the six concubines of this palace, the master of Yikun Palace, why do you, a little palace maid, unjustly accuse you?"
"Everything I told is the truth. It was you and Ying'er who teamed up to harm me. Chun Bing, you are so despicable!" As soon as Cai Ling finished speaking, Ying'er said sternly: "How dare you, Cai Ling, dare to commit the following crime? It's your life."
?”
Su Shi sneered and said: "I think she just wants to die. Otherwise, how dare you put the second elder brother's safety at risk." After that, she ordered: "Ying'er, just watch her first and let the rest take care of her.
The matter will be dealt with later.”
Cai Ling shouted: "I didn't, I didn't do anything. It was you who colluded with each other to frame me!"
Tang Jiu quickly brought the imperial doctor over. After looking at it, he determined that Yong Lian's hand was only a flesh wound. He applied medicine and bandaged it and everything was fine.
Mrs. Su patted her chest and said, "Fortunately, nothing serious happened. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do." Seeing that Yonglian didn't speak, she added, "Since the happiness is gone, I will accompany you back to Cining Palace."
How is it?"
Yong Lian nodded silently. Su wanted to hold his hand, but he avoided her and whispered: "I can go by myself."
Su didn't force herself and said to Qian Moduo: "Manager Qian, can you please go to Cining Palace with me to be a witness." Naturally, Qian Moduo would not refuse and agreed immediately.
Before leaving, Mrs. Su glanced at Cai Ling who looked angrily, and said to Ying'er: "It's okay to stay here. It's better to take her back to Yikun Palace and deal with her after I return. Tang Jiu,
You help Ying'er and take her back together."
Tang Jiu didn't know what happened, but now was obviously not the time to ask such questions, so he lowered his head and agreed, and together with Ying'er forced Cai Ling to leave.
The Su family came to Cining Palace with Yonglian and Qian Moduo. Lingruo heard that Yonglian was injured and said nervously: "Come here and let the imperial grandmother see why you are so careless?"
Yong Lian said obediently: "Grandmother, don't worry. My grandson just has a flesh wound. Moreover, Concubine Chun has already summoned the imperial doctor for my grandson. There is nothing wrong with him."
"Didn't you say you were going out to play for a while? Why were you injured, and you were still with Chunbi and Qian Moduo? What happened?"
Before Yonglian could speak, Su knelt down and said, "To the Queen Mother, it is my concubine who is responsible for everything. It is my concubine who caused the second elder brother to be injured. I deserve death for my crime!"
Ling Ruo frowned and said, "You? What on earth is going on?"
Su told the story exactly, and then said: "I know that Cai Ling is a bit eager for quick success and self-righteous, but I never thought that she would sacrifice the safety of her second elder brother for meritorious service, although this matter is not my concubine.
It’s my idea, but she is my concubine’s palace servant, and it’s my concubine who failed to teach her well, so I ask the Queen Mother to punish her.”
Ling Ruo said coldly: "How could a mere palace maid have such courage?" At this point, he turned his eyes and said: "Qian Moduo, you were there at the time. Is it true as Concubine Chun said?"
Qian Moduo heard the words and said quickly: "Returning to the Queen Mother, it is indeed true. Chunbi had already comforted the second elder brother at that time. If Cai Ling hadn't taken it upon herself to catch the cat, the second elder brother would not have been injured at all. Moreover.
Afterwards, she tried to blame the other palace ladies, saying that someone else had pushed her, and even insulted the pure concubine."
Mrs. Su lowered her eyes and said, "I am really ashamed that I taught such a palace servant."
Ling Ruo said in a deep voice: "The Ai family is not an unreasonable person. This matter is the fault of the palace maid and has nothing to do with you. However, the Ai family hopes that you will discipline your palace maids in the future so that the same thing will not happen again.
thing."
Mrs. Su quickly agreed: "I understand, I will discipline you strictly after I return."
Ling Ruo nodded slightly and said: "That palace maid is yours, you can decide what to do with her. However, the Aijia would like to remind you that it is not a good thing for someone who is so eager for quick success to stay by your side."
Su Shi heard what Ling Ruo meant and felt calm. She lowered her head and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for reminding me. I know what to do. If the Queen Mother has no other instructions, I will leave first."
"Go." After Su and Qian Moduo left Cining Palace, Yonglian suddenly said: "Grandma Huang, can you help your grandson to plead with Emperor Ama and not to kill Xin Xin."
Ling Ruo gently stroked the gauze on Yong Lian's hand and said, "It hurt you, and you still plead for it?"
"Xingxin was scared. It was not intentional. He hurt his grandson, and I believe he feels the most uncomfortable." Yonglian's innocent words made Ling Ruo chuckle, "You silly kid, do you think a cat is a human?"
It is just an animal, there is no such thing as 'sad'."
Yonglian said eagerly: "No, Kaixin is not an animal, he is a friend of his grandson."
"Silly boy, beasts are beasts, how can we be friends?" Faced with Ling Ruo's words, Yong Lian said aggrievedly: "If this is the case, then my grandson will not even have a friend."
His words stunned Ling Ruo, and then she felt a trace of pity and comforted her softly: "You are still young now. When you grow up, you will naturally have friends. Your Majesty Ama was also like this back then."
