Hearing this, Li Qianmo seemed a little embarrassed. He glanced at Xia Huanyu who was sitting on the Dragon Throne silently, and then said softly: "It's not that I don't want to show it to the princess, it's just that the file is in the database of the Ministry of Justice.
Now, there is really nothing we can do for the princess."
Yun Shang nodded lightly, was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said softly: "I don't know anything about solving cases, so I'm asking Mr. Li to worry about it. I just hope that if there is any progress, I can trouble Mr. Li to inform me. I know it well.
, and feel more at ease.”
Li Qianmo responded repeatedly: "I don't dare, this matter is my responsibility."
Yun Shang smiled lightly again, then raised her head and looked at Xia Huanyu, saluted and said: "Your Majesty, I have a general understanding of the situation. I don't know how to solve cases, so I'm afraid I can't be of much help."
, so he retreated first."
Xia Huanyu nodded, "Okay, step back."
Yun Shang then slowly withdrew, while Qin Yi was waiting outside the palace. Seeing Yun Shang coming out, she frowned slightly, and didn't ask any further questions. She just followed Yun Shang and walked slowly towards Chaoxia Palace.
Before they were halfway there, they saw a palace maid running over in a hurry. Seeing Yun Shang, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "Princess Rui..."
Yun Shang remembered her, she was the maid waiting outside Zhaoxia Palace, her name seemed to be Caiyi? Seeing her face full of anxiety, Yun Shang asked, "What's wrong? But what happened?"
The palace maid nodded repeatedly, as if she was a little tired from running, and panted heavily as she said: "Princess, please go to the Luoxia Pavilion by the Yancui Lake and have a look. The maid next to you and Wu from the Mingcui Palace
There was a quarrel while changing clothes."
Yun Shang couldn't help frowning, feeling a little annoyed in her heart: "I just told Qian Zui not to be too impulsive, why did she start a fight as soon as she turned around?" After saying that, she hurried to Yancui Lake.
.
Although Yancui Lake is not small, the so-called Luoxia Pavilion is not difficult to find. Yun Shang saw many people gathered outside a pavilion, so she walked straight towards the pavilion.
"A little maid dares to make a noise with the masters in the palace. I don't know how your master taught you the rules. If you follow the instructions of the dressing lady, draw a turtle on your face, and then surround yourself with
Walk around this smoky green lake three times and we will spare you." A sharp female voice came with unabashed sarcasm.
Yun Shang frowned slightly, but then she heard Qian Zui's voice coming over again: "Oh, what a joke. It's just a little girl changing clothes from the ninth grade, but he dares to slander the reputation of the princess at will. I don't know
, the rules in the palace teach such people."
"You dare to say that I'm uneducated, come on, give me a beating!" The furious voice should be Liu Gengyi whom Caiyi mentioned.
"Stop!" Cai Yi beside him said in a loud voice, also a little angry.
The people gathered outside Luoxia Pavilion all turned around and looked at the three of them. One of them, a pretty lady dressed as a palace maid, frowned and looked at Caiyi with some displeasure, "What are you doing again?"
Onions came out of nowhere."
Yun Shang laughed slowly when she heard this. She somewhat understood. Most of the people here were concubines below the seventh rank. They were not qualified to go to greetings or palace banquets on weekdays. She had never seen Yun Shang.
. Moreover, this Yancui Lake is quite far away from the main palaces, and concubines of higher rank would not pass by here on weekdays, so they can do whatever they want.
"I'm blinding you. Concubine Rui is here, why don't you kneel down and salute." The palace servants currently serving in Chaoxia Palace are all transferred from Taiji Palace. They usually serve Xia Huanyu.
Caiyi was even more angry when she was offered sacrifices everywhere and had never been wronged like this.
When everyone heard Cai Yi talking about Princess Rui, their eyes swept over the three of them, and finally landed on Yun Chang, who had the most outstanding appearance. However, no one saluted.
Yun Shang didn't care at all, she smiled lightly, walked to the Luoxia Pavilion and sat down, her eyes slowly swept over everyone, and finally stopped on one of the women wearing a goose-yellow palace dress.
The concubines in the palace must dress according to their rank, and there are certain rules to follow. Among these women, one is changing clothes, two are picking girls, and two are agreeing. Yun Shang took the clothes of the woman in goose-yellow palace clothes.
It turned out at first glance that she must be Liu Gengyi.
"Have a quick drink, come here." Yun Shang gently placed his hand on the stone table in the pavilion, tapped his index finger on the table, and spoke lightly.
After Qianzhu, he quickly walked to stand behind Yun Shang.
Yun Shang then looked at Liu Gengyi again, "Liu Gengyi, right? How long have you been in the palace?"
Liu Gengyi had been staring at Yun Shang for a long time. He saw that she had a beautiful face, but she looked like she was only sixteen or seventeen years old at most, but her smile was very warm. He thought in his mind that Princess Rui was said to be gentle and cowardly.
She's just a little girl, that's true. He raised his eyes slightly and looked at the top of Yun Shang's head, "Six years ago."
"It's been so long?" Yun Shang seemed a little surprised, "Liu Changyi has been a ninth-grade Changyi for six years. Do you know why?"
When Liu Gengyi heard Yun Shang's tone, he became a little unhappy and frowned, but did not answer Yun Sang's question.
Yun Shang smiled and didn't take it seriously, "I think it's probably because Liu Gengyi's appearance is not outstanding. There are a lot of women with your appearance in the palace, and this
Her temperament is really not very agreeable. I heard that Your Majesty likes women who are as gentle as water, like Concubine Xiang in the Xiangzhu Palace, or Concubine Shen Shu before that, or Hui, who was pregnant with the dragon heir just a month after entering the palace.
Zhaoyi."
"Princess Rui thinks I have a bad temper?" Liu Gengyi endured it again and again, and finally spoke.
Yun Shang looked at Shi Zuo's hand and paused lightly, then raised his head and said to Cai Yi: "Cai Yi has been serving His Majesty all the time. He must know that Cai Yi, who is from the ninth grade, calls himself me in front of this princess.
How should it be handled?”
Caiyi saluted and said softly: "When you return to the princess, you should slap her twenty times."
Yun Shang nodded lightly, smiled and said: "I think this punishment is a bit harsh, but since I have entered the palace, I can't break the rules of the palace, so I asked Miss Caiyi to help me deal with it.
Already."
Liu Gengyi obviously sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly said: "What are you doing? I am a concubine in the palace!"
Yun Shang laughed again, "I'm afraid Liu Gengyi has not yet understood that Changyi is only from the ninth rank. If I want to deal with it, I still have the power. Considering that Liu Gengyi is so ignorant, I must have
You don’t know that the girl in Caiyi is a palace servant next to His Majesty, and in terms of rank, I’m afraid she’s a little higher than you.”
Caiyi smiled and said nothing, seemingly acquiescing. He walked up to Liu Gengyi, raised his hand and hit him. The "pop" sound was very loud.
Women who are able to enter the palace and become concubines are of high net worth. Even if it is a small change of clothes, they are probably spoiled at home and have never been bullied like this.
"Princess Rui, don't think that no one will know if you beat me. Your seduction of His Majesty is no longer a secret in the palace. Are you afraid that others will not tell you if you dare to do it?" Then Liu Gengyi was slapped by Caiyi.
He was stunned, and when he came to his senses, he cursed fiercely. For a moment, the faces of all the women outside Luoxia Pavilion turned pale.
"Wait a minute." Yun Shang raised her hand and stopped Cai Yi, who was about to slap her a second time. Her eyes were full of coldness, "Just now, I thought that Liu Gengyi just bumped into me, it didn't count.
What a serious crime, now that you dare to slander me and Your Majesty, this is a major crime against the nine clans, and I bother Miss Caiyi to report to Your Majesty. I, the Princess, cannot be the master of such a treasonous person."
Liu Gengyi was stunned when he heard what Yun Shang said. He looked at Yun Shang blankly, thinking that Yun Shang was just scaring her, but Caiyi had already knelt down and agreed, and was about to go to Tai Chi Hall.
Only then did Liu Gengyi panic. He rushed forward to hug Cai Yi and said in a panic: "I'm just talking nonsense. I don't know anything. Please spare my life, Princess Rui. I know you're wrong. I'm sorry."
I know I was wrong."
Yun Shang's eyes fell lightly on Liu Gengyi, whose face was full of tears. She clenched her hands in her sleeves. After a long while, she laughed coldly: "Liu Gengyi has been in the palace for six years. Could it be that he still doesn't know what to do?"
What can't be said? I have just said that if you just reinstall me, this matter is not big or small. I am not a fussy person, so giving Cai Yi twenty slaps is just a small matter.
Punishing Xiaojie, I just hope you can realize your mistake."
Liu Gengyi had collapsed on the ground, his face turned pale, "But not only do you not repent, you also talk nonsense and slander me without saying anything, but you dare to slander His Majesty's reputation. This is a serious crime. Please beg me for mercy."
It's also of no use. As I said just now, this is no longer something that I, the princess, can make the decision about."
Just as he was talking, Yun Shang saw in the distance that Ning Qian seemed to be walking over with several concubines. Seeing the scene outside the Luoxia Pavilion, she was a little surprised and said with a smile: "There are people crying and crying here."
It’s a commotion, what happened to make it so lively?”
Yun Shang stood up with a smile, "I made Concubine Xiang laugh. Why did Concubine Xiang come here?"
Ning Qian glanced at Liu Changyi, then walked into the pavilion, pulled Yun Shang and sat down next to Yun Shang, and then said softly: "I took a walk with you guys, I was thinking of you.
I wanted to go and take a look at Chaoxia Palace, but I didn’t expect to bump into it on the way."
The other concubines who came with Ning Qian also walked into the pavilion, smiled and saluted: "I have met Princess Rui."
Yun Shang nodded lightly: "Let's all sit down."
Ning Qian glanced at Liu Gengyi again and said with a smile, "What's wrong? But who made you angry?"
Yun Shang also glanced at Liu Gengyi. Liu Gengyi seemed a little surprised to suddenly see so many high-ranking concubines, and they were so polite to Yun Shang, and stared blankly.
"It's nothing. It's because something happened so suddenly last night. Now Prince Rui's Mansion is not very safe. Your Majesty and the Queen took pity on me because I was pregnant and asked me to move to Zhaoxia Palace. However, they didn't want to cause some unhappiness.
A necessary misunderstanding, these low-level concubines were just saying that I seduced His Majesty, and this entry into the palace is proof." (To be continued)
