"Your Majesty, Concubine Hui is protecting Concubine Wan, and she deliberately didn't explain the matter clearly."

Yu Ying'er continued loudly, "Your Majesty, you can send someone to interrogate some other palace maids and eunuchs to find out who is committing the crime."

After hearing her words, Shen Meizhuang completely regretted it.

Concubine Jing was very grateful.

The emperor glanced indifferently at Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan.

It can be seen from their expressions that Shen Meizhuang's words may be wrong.

at this time.

Su Peisheng walked in.

Whisper a few key points to the Emperor.

Yu Ying'er accused Concubine Wan of deceiving the emperor, and also said that Huanbi's behavior was not instructed by her master, Concubine Wan.

Whether it is preventing the master from leaving or beating the master.

Everything is Huanbi's personal behavior.

The emperor's face gradually became gloomy.

"I agree that if you disrespect the nobles Wan and Hui, you will be fined three months' salary."

The emperor gave a direct order in a cold voice, "The maid Huanbi was disrespectful to her master and beat her. She will be punished with thirty strokes of the cane and expelled from the palace."

"Your Majesty, please have mercy!"

Zhen Huan could no longer hold back and kowtowed desperately, "Your Majesty, please have mercy on me and don't expel Huanbi from the palace. I beg you, Your Majesty, please have mercy on me!"

"The noble lady Wan is not strict with her subordinates, and the noble lady Hui does not express her ideas clearly."

The emperor ignored the pleas and continued to issue an order, "The two men will be confined to the palace for a month to reflect on their mistakes and take them as a warning. If they commit the same offense again, their punishment will be doubled."

"Yes, I obey your order!"

Shen Meizhuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly kowtowed in response.

"emperor……"

Zhen Huan still couldn't help but plead, "Your Majesty, Huanbi is my maid, please allow her to stay with me."

"Wan Guiren."

The emperor looked at her directly and said, "If it weren't for your sake, your maid would have dared to attack her master. For this crime alone, she should be beaten to death.

Now, thirty strokes of the cane can still spare her life. If you are not satisfied, I can leave her body intact for you."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Zhen Huan was so shocked that her mouth was dumbfounded and her whole body was shaking.

"Go down!"

The emperor was too lazy to say anything more and waved his hand for them to leave.

"I, your concubine, take my leave!"

No matter what everyone was thinking, they bowed and left the imperial study.

Jingpin had the highest rank and didn't want to get involved in their affairs.

She left quickly.

"Humph!"

Yu Ying'er snorted coldly at the distraught Zhen Huan.

He left with the palace maid in a haughty manner.

Zhen Huan looked at her arrogant back and felt extremely hateful.

In the past, she hated Concubine Hua who loved to find fault and bully others, but now she is full of hatred towards Yu Ying'er.

It's a life-and-death feud.

"Huan'er, let's go!"

Shen Meizhuang naturally did not miss the hatred in her eyes.

She sighed secretly, pulled her and said as she walked: "Yu promised that her position is not high, and everyone thinks that she is the most favored during this period.

Look, she has offended people all over the palace, but who dares to bother with her?

Everyone knows that she is in favor now, so they all try to avoid her.

It was indeed inappropriate for Huanbi to attack her this time."

"Sister Mei, I'm sorry."

Zhen Huan said with tears in her eyes: "I'm sorry to have implicated you this time."

"I'm fine."

Thinking back to the emperor's cold look at her, Shen Meizhuang still felt a little uneasy.

He still did not forget to comfort the people around him, "You have to be careful.

Regardless, this incident has had a significant impact on you."

"But Huanbi..."

Tears welled up in Zhen Huan's eyes. "What if she is really kicked out of the palace?"

"Can't she leave the palace?"

Shen Meizhuang didn't know about Huanbi's situation. "She will go back to your house, and after she recovers from her injuries, ask your aunt to find a suitable family for her to marry off.

Huan'er, in fact, Huanbi's personality will easily cause you trouble if she stays in the palace.

It would be a good idea to take this opportunity to send her out."

"No."

Zhen Huan rejected it outright.

Meeting Shen Meizhuang's surprised look.

She had to explain, “Sister Mei, Huanbi grew up with me, just like my sister.

If she went out, she could only find an ordinary family.

If she were in the palace, I would have a chance to find a better family for her in the future."

"what do you mean……"

Shen Meizhuang was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what she meant.

She was silent for a moment, then asked, "Huan'er, since you are determined to make plans for your own people, why have you been..."

In fact, she knew that Yu Ying'er was telling the truth.

Zhen Huan deliberately used illness as an excuse to avoid favor.

As an insider, Shen Meizhuang didn't understand why she did this.

"I, I don't know what to say..."

Zhen Huan couldn't tell the real reason.

I could only lower my head and say, "Maybe I was wrong. I shouldn't be so willful."

"Huan'er, if we don't spoil you, anyone can bully you."

Shen Meizhuang's tone was somewhat helpless, "Think about it, if you were the favorite concubine, would Yu promise her to dare to treat us like this?

If you don’t pamper yourself, you can’t even protect yourself, let alone the people around you.

Think about it carefully. "

"I know!"

Zhen Huan pursed her lips tightly, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.

"Huan'er, if you want to keep Huanbi, it's not impossible."

"Sister Mei, do you have a solution?"

"It's simple. After Huanbi is caned, you take her back to recuperate.

Shen Meizhuang gave a suggestion, "While she is recovering from her injuries, try to find a way to gain her favor.

When the time comes, find an opportunity to do it when the emperor is in a good mood.

You plead with the emperor.

In fact, Huanbi had already been tortured.

Whether she was expelled from the palace or stayed in the palace was a matter of a word from the emperor.

The emperor is happy and is willing to give you face.

Then there is a chance that Huanbi will stay.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to be favored and the emperor is willing to make an exception for you.

Think about it carefully! "

……

What happened in the imperial garden soon spread throughout the harem.

Let's just watch a show.

No matter whether it was Yu Ying'er or the palace maid Huanbi, no one was taken seriously.

Next.

It was Zhen Huan and Yu Ying'er who used all means to compete for favor.

Today you cut off her mess, tomorrow she cuts off your mess.

The battle for talent was particularly exciting.

The Queen and the Queen Mother did not take any action.

Everyone enjoyed the show.

No matter how noisy they are.

The masters of the Yanxi Palace had no time to pay attention to the excitement outside.

"It's time to give birth, the little lady is going to give birth!"

A shout came from the main hall.

Li Siqi, who was playing with the baby, stood up and said, "Aunt Ruolan, go over and take a look first.

I will go there later."

"My lady, you better not go out."

Ruolan showed disapproval, "You need to stay in confinement for the month of pregnancy, you can't go out at this time."

"It's okay. I have recovered a long time ago."

Li Siqi didn't care at all, "Besides, it's in the Yanxi Palace, what's there to be afraid of."

"My lady..."

"Forget it, you stay and look after the Sixth Prince and the Little Princess."

Li Siqi didn't want to listen to her advice and walked out directly, "I will go over and take a look myself.

Maybe Lady Tian is waiting for me to come over."

Before Aunt Lanruo could say anything, the master had already walked out.

Feeling helpless, she had to stay and look after the two young masters.

Just as Li Siqi said.

Noble Lady Fucha was indeed nervous and scared.

Even though the nanny beside her comforted her, she still felt uneasy.

"Ling Rong..."

She muttered something quietly.

The nanny next to her responded immediately, "My lady, Concubine Xin is going to have a double confinement period, I'm afraid it's not convenient now..."

"My lady, Concubine Xin is here!"

"Let Lingrong in quickly."

Noble Lady Fucha was delighted and went out to look.

Sure enough, I saw Li Siqi coming over in casual clothes.

He couldn't help but say excitedly: "Lingrong, you are here."
