Concubine Dun couldn't help but panic, but she still tried to calm herself down, "Empress, you are just a one-sided statement from a little palace maid. What does a mere twenty taels of silver mean?"
Even if it was really found out from the palace maid's room, it wouldn't be a big deal.
"Everything I said is true!" The little palace maid kowtowed so hard that her forehead turned red.
The queen rubbed her eyebrows and then looked at the eldest maid of Fuchun Palace who was standing behind Concubine Dun, "Peilan, what did you say?"
Peilan hurriedly stood up and knelt down to kowtow, "I don't dare to deceive the Empress. That Dongzhu bracelet... was indeed ordered by Concubine Dun to frame Su's promise!"
These words once again shocked the entire audience.
Concubine Atsushi’s confidant, the eldest maid, stabbed Concubine Atsushi in front of her face and back!!
This scene is so exciting!
Concubine Dun's pretty face was filled with shock at this moment, "Peilan, you - I treat you well!" - Who bribed Peilan?! Let her betray her at such a critical moment? Could it be that Peilan was the one who wanted to betray her at such a critical moment?
The idea was just to plot against her? Thinking of this, Concubine Dun couldn't help but feel a chill running down her spine! Who is it? Who is it?
Peilan said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Your Majesty is really cruel. It's not enough to expel her from Fuchun Palace just because she doesn't like Su's promise. She actually blames her for theft and even commits a greater crime! If I don't tell the truth, my conscience will be broken."
Uneasy!"
"You——" Concubine Atsushi's face turned purple with anger. She quickly looked at everyone in the palace, and finally her eyes were fixed on the empress of the middle palace who stood motionless on the phoenix throne, as if she had already mastered everything!
Queen! Must be the queen!
Who else but the Queen would be so capable of making her eldest maid betray her on the spot?!
"Ha!" Concubine Dun sneered sadly, "The Queen is so scheming!"
The queen frowned, her face becoming even more displeased: "Concubine Dun, you have done such a shameless thing, why don't you kneel down and confess your guilt!"
Concubine Dun proudly raised her chin at this moment, "I am not guilty! Someone set up a scheme!"
The queen couldn't help being furious, and slapped the armrest of the Phoenix throne hard, "How outrageous! You are really stubborn! Just because you are pregnant, you dare to say such nonsense in front of me! Huh, I don't believe that the emperor will protect you this time.
you!"
Shu Jin: Yes, Concubine Dun does have a second-class Dongzhu bracelet.
"Come here!" The Queen raised her voice solemnly, "I will imprison Concubine Dun in Fuchun Palace, and I will deal with it after I have consulted the Emperor for instructions!"
In the blink of an eye, the one who was imprisoned turned out to be Concubine Atsushi.
"Don't touch me!" Seeing the two big-bodied nuns approaching in a menacing manner, Concubine Dun still looked proud, "I can leave on my own!"
Concubine Dun is pregnant after all. How could the queen be so violent to her in her own palace in full view of everyone? She must have to endure it.
After Concubine Atsushi was sent away, the queen grabbed the tea cup beside her and threw it heavily to the ground.
All the concubines and concubines present were silent.
Su agreed to come to his senses in a daze, and he couldn't help but feel like he was being pardoned. He quickly kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Queen, for understanding everything."
The queen then restrained her ferocious scowl and revealed her usual dignified and virtuous appearance. "You have been wronged this time. Don't worry, I will definitely make the decision for you."
After saying that, he ordered the palace maid Danzhu beside him: "Hurry up and help Su Yingxing up."
"yes!"
Su Renying, whose body had long been limp, was helped up by Danzhu's own hands and sat back on the embroidered pier. Su Renying wiped the cold sweat from her head. Just now...she was probably only one step away from the cold palace. This Concubine Dun was so aggressive.
Cruel! I was accidentally hit!
The Queen glanced at Peilan and the little palace maid who were still kneeling on the ground, "How dare you two frame Su Yao Yao, it is a death penalty, but I see that you are both threatened by others and can't help yourself,
He will be dealt with lightly."
After saying that, the queen ordered Cui Jinzhong: "Peilan is over twenty-five years old. Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs arrange for her to leave the palace and go home. The other one will also be expelled from the palace."
"嗻!"
Shu Jin secretly laughed: Are you dealing with it so lightly?
After saying that, the queen suddenly looked at Su and said, "You just said that Concubine Dun usurped the second-class Dongzhu, but is it true?"
Su promised that she had just calmed down a bit at this moment, and stood up quickly and said: "I'm absolutely right, I did accidentally see Concubine Dun wearing a string of second-class Dongzhu... It must be for this reason that she was chosen by Dun.
The concubine holds a grudge, and it is not enough to chase the concubine out of the Fu Chun Palace, but she still slanders the concubine like this."
Saying that, Su promised to burst into tears again, Duan was so pitiful.
The queen then ordered Cui Jinzhong with a straight face: "Go and search Fuchun Palace. I want to see who is trespassing!"
In the blink of an eye, the crime of transgression was once again placed on Concubine Dun.
Shu Jin rubbed his hungry belly. Oh my god, do I have to sit here and wait for the search results?! I'm afraid I have to wait until noon?!
My Five Zang Temple... I have never been so hungry since I came across time!
I hurriedly picked up the tea cup, but unexpectedly, the tea was already finished!
Fortunately, the snacks placed on the small coffee table were not moved at all. Yes, the small coffee table was placed between two chairs. Under her was Concubine Dun, and Concubine Dun never used the snacks in the Queen's Palace.
Shu Jin hurriedly grabbed a piece and put it into his mouth. It was good, soft and sweet. It tastes good when you are hungry.
But she didn't dare to eat too wildly, after all, everyone else was sitting upright, so she could only eat two pieces secretly to cushion her stomach while the queen was comforting Su for her promise.
Shu Jin's seat was so close to the Queen, even if the Queen didn't stare at it deliberately, how could she not notice it?
The Queen's forehead couldn't help but jump twice. This Yufei...how did she look like a concubine? After all, she was just wrapped in clothes, not decent!
The queen's face darkened several times, "What? Is Concubine Yu very hungry?"
Shu Jin's black line, you still have the nerve to say that after searching Chun Haoxuan and Fu Chun Palace, you are going to be hungry and hungry?
She could only laugh and said: "I originally planned to try just one piece, but I didn't expect the snacks in the Queen's Palace to be so delicious."
The queen's face softened slightly after being complimented, "Who knows that the cook in Concubine Yu's palace is one of the best in the harem, but it's unbelievable that she would like the craftsmanship of this palace."
Shu Jin could only keep smiling and said, "The Queen is joking, you are the middle palace, so naturally the cooks around you are the best. How can I compare with you in the concubine's palace?"
While they were talking, Cui Jinzhong returned in a hurry.
The queen couldn't help but frowned, "Why are you back so soon?"
Cui Jinzhong called Qian'er and said, "Master, Eunuch Zhang from the Imperial Palace is here."
The queen's face darkened, the emperor actually intervened?! Concubine Dun must have taken the opportunity to go to Qingyan in Kyushu to report the news!
The eunuch Zhang Lin walked in with a smile, bowed to the queen, and then coughed and said: "The emperor has checked it out. The servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs made a mistake and the Dongzhu that was awarded to Concubine Dun has been taken back.
"
The queen's face was even more ugly. The emperor actually wiped away the crime of transgression to Concubine Atsushi!
"The evidence for framing Su's promise is conclusive!" the queen said sternly.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Lin smiled happily, "The emperor has also heard about this. The emperor issued an oral order that Concubine Dun had violated her etiquette and was grounded for two months and fined for half a year. Su promised to be wronged.
I wish that Jin will always be here, and I will give you a bunch of dendrobium from the south as a token of appeasement!"
She was only grounded for two months? Then she was fined some insignificant salary?! And the charge was just a mere act of misconduct?! The emperor was too partial to Concubine Dun!
The queen was furious.
When Mrs. Su heard this, she felt unhappy, but the real benefits fell on her, so she hurriedly stood up and said: "Concubine, thank you for your grace!"
Zhang Lin smiled again and said to the queen: "The emperor said that he will come over to have lunch with the mistress in a while. I also ask the mistress to make some preparations."
As soon as she heard that the emperor was coming, the queen no longer cared about being angry, and hurriedly dismissed all the annoying concubines, and rewarded Zhang Lin generously.
