Shu Jin expected it to be true. Concubine Dun's series of disrespectful actions towards Bodhisattva really angered Yongzheng. Yongzheng ordered Concubine Dun to copy hundreds of Buddhist scriptures and was fined half a year's salary - for Concubine Dun who had been favored for many years
, is already an extremely severe punishment.
At the same time, the emperor also rewarded Ning Guiren with silk and satin, Buddha beads to comfort him, and ordered the imperial doctor to nurse him back to health. Although the emperor did not visit him in person, Ning Guiren seemed to be showing signs of regaining his favor.
In this round, Yinghui Palace won beautifully.
"Greetings to the Emperor!" In the afternoon of this day, Yongzheng suddenly arrived, and Young Master Shu Jin had to get up in a hurry to greet him.
The floods in the south of the Yangtze River were alleviated, and Yinzhen could hardly relax his eyebrows, but he had to worry about the trivial matters in the harem.
"If Mr. Nian caused such an unseemly thing, you, a noble concubine, wouldn't take good care of it." He was scolded in front of her face.
Shu Jin was speechless for a while, Xiao Nian Gao was a beloved concubine, who dared to punish her?
He had no choice but to admit his mistake in a hurry, "I originally thought that it was just a trivial matter between the concubines, and I would just mediate it later. Unexpectedly, I alerted the emperor."
Yinzhen said in a cold tone: "Don't be too lenient with Nian from now on."
"Yes." Shu Jin hurriedly responded respectfully, and then said cautiously, "Nian's temperament...has always been like this, why is the emperor so angry this time?" - You have not been less lenient with Nian in the past.
Yinzhen was silent for a moment, "It is precisely because I was too tolerant of Nian in the past that I spoiled her." - Geng always looked at my expressions, so naturally he followed suit and tolerated Nian. However, I gave Nian a lot of money.
There are enough of them, it’s time to collect them.
Shu Jin secretly thought: What this means is that you are not going to tolerate Nian in the future?
"I even gave her the eighth prince, so she should be satisfied." Yinzhen said with a straight face, "If she makes any mistakes again in the future, you, a noble concubine, will be dealt with according to the palace rules."
"Yes, I obey your order."
The special treatment of small rice cakes has been cancelled, which is of course the best thing.
Shu Jin hurriedly brought a cup of tea to Yongzheng, "Your Majesty, take a sip of tea to relieve your anger. Concubine Dun has been favored by the Emperor for many years, so it is inevitable that she will be a little squeamish. Since the Emperor has personally punished her, I think Concubine Dun will be able to learn from her mistakes and correct her mistakes."
These gentle words made Yinzhen feel a lot more at ease, "It would be great if she could be as sensible as you."
Shu Jin: Hahaha.
The cicadas chirped continuously outside the hall, and the mountains of ice cubes in the ice jar melted slowly, making the hall feel cool and pleasant. Yinzhen looked at the gentle and plump Geng in front of him, and suddenly felt a little strange, but he couldn't remember it.
What a demeanor Mr. Geng had in his previous life...
Yinzhen suddenly felt that things were different and people were different.
"Why is the emperor looking at my concubine like this?" Shu Jin was so scared that the dog emperor looked at him.
Only then did Yinzhen suddenly come back to his senses, "I just feel that there seems to be something different about you."
Shu Jin was secretly excited and kept smiling: "I must be old, so I naturally look a little different from when I was young."
Yinzhen shook his head, "It's not about age... Besides, you're not too old either."
Shu Jin’s Black Line: Can this stupid scumbag speak human language! What does “not too old” mean?!
I am not old to begin with! I am only thirty years old!
Oh, no, it’s not my birthday yet, I’m not even thirty yet!
Shu Jin also understood that in this era, on average, people get married at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and become parents at the age of sixteen or seventeen. At the age of thirty...then it is time for a blind date for the eldest son or daughter! The original owner, Geng, was relatively late in getting pregnant and having children.
Got it!
Therefore, thirty years old is really a bit old...
Thinking of this, Shu Jin felt a little sad, "Hongzhou has grown up, so naturally I am old."
Yinzhen nodded slightly, "In a few years, it will be time to choose Fujin for Hong Zhou." - He was obviously a naughty brat before, but he has grown older in the blink of an eye.
Shu Jin was speechless and choked. My goose is only eight years old! What kind of wife are you looking for?!
Shu Jin laughed awkwardly: "It's still early."
As she said that, she hurriedly changed the subject, "On the other hand, Third Brother, now that he is married to Fujin, I hope the emperor will have a grandson next year." - You are the bad old man, he should be a grandfather!
When he mentioned Hongshi, Yinzhen couldn't help but frowned. Hongshi was unworthy and had very few heirs.
"Forget it Hong Shi, I might as well wait a few more years for Hong Li and Hong Zhou to grow up." These two brats are quite lucky to have heirs.
The corners of Shu Jin's mouth twitched. When I grow up, I can give you grandchildren?
"Actually, Your Majesty is in his prime. He only had the eighth elder brother this year. If not, he will have the ninth elder brother next year." Shu Jin quickly complimented sweetly.
Yinzhen was pleased to have a son this year, but not to mention that the eighth prince was too young. Even Hongxin, who was ahead of him, could not have high expectations at his age. As for Hongshi... he was raised by Concubine Xuan.
, naturally there is no storage consideration.
In the end, the only choices that could be used as reserve positions were Hongshi, Hongli and Hongzhou.
Yinzhen rubbed his eyebrows. Although they still looked the same now, but——
Forget it, let’s take a look again.
After sending the emperor away, Shu Jin only felt that his mind was tired and panicked. Getting along with the dog emperor would inevitably lead to tension.
Lu Xue gave her a cup of almond cheese, Shu Jin drank it slowly, leaned on the beauty's couch, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Zhang Shoufa came forward and reported: "Empress, Fu Chun Palace smashed a lot of bottles and cans, you see..."
Shu Jin said calmly: "Ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs not to rush to make up for it." - After it was made up, she still had to smash it.
"Hey, I understand."
"By the way, give her more pens, ink, paper and inkstones so that she can copy the scriptures slowly." Shu Jin looked like he was watching a good show.
Lu Xue covered her lips and snickered, "A hundred volumes, I'm afraid I will have to copy them until next year."
The emperor did not set a time limit and let the little rice cakes be copied slowly.
However, before the copy is finished, Xiao Nian Gao may be left out in the cold.
In the evening, news came from the Jingshi Room that the emperor turned over the sign that Ji promised. It was also someone from Yinghui Palace who beat Concubine Dun.
There is no shortage of young and beautiful women in this palace. Ji agreed, Yun agreed, Chun agreed, Yi agreed, Wang Changzai, An Changzai... I can't even count them.
Therefore, the emperor liked the new and disliked the old, but it was just a matter of thought.
This midsummer, Nian's favor was suddenly replaced by these little promises and little Chang Zai, which really made Nian's suffer.
Concubine Xi became more and more proud, and the other concubines also followed the good show. The popularity of the little rice cake was so bad that even the one who was imprisoned in Kaiyun at Luoyue was so happy that she ate half a bowl of rice.
For a time, the harem was really celebrating.
This was the second time that Nian had fallen out of favor. It was extremely difficult for Nian to accept such a day. After trying many ways to seduce the emperor to no avail, Nian went to Danning Palace.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Dun would like to see you." Zhang Shoufa reported with a smile.
Shu Jin just swallowed a sip of milk tea. Nian's arrival was expected, but she still couldn't help but find it funny.
Lu Xue hummed and said, "My queen, you don't have to pay attention to it."
Shu Jin smiled and said: "Ignore it and let Concubine Xi get her own way?" - the balance she wanted.
