Rong Fei is not honored
Chapter 144 Slapping Concubine Hui
Finally, Ji Nai could only accept that she was very likely suffering from depression or bipolar disorder. Therefore, she was very worried that she would kill the queen after seeing her.
Before, Ji Nai was very confident in his self-control, but since he knew about his illness, Ji Nai felt a little guilty, especially when he saw that Kangxi knew that he was coming to pay his respects today and acted as if he was facing a great enemy.
"I want to hold you back, but I'm afraid that by then, I'll be more excited than you."
Ji Nai thought about it and realized that this was indeed possible. What should he do then?
Just when Ji Nai was worried, Concubine Hui came in. In fact, it was a little late for her to come at this time. Generally speaking, the higher the status of a person, the later he would come.
People of lower status usually arrive before those of higher status to show respect. But this time, Ji Nai had been here for a while, and Concubine Hui was late.
In fact, if Concubine Hui had just sat down, no one would have mentioned this matter. Ji Nai didn't want to get involved, and the others didn't dare to provoke Concubine Hui, who was favored and had a son.
Unexpectedly, after the other party sat down, he immediately started to fight Ji Nai. "Hey, Sister Ma Jia, why did you come so early today? Could it be that Brother Chengrui is feeling better?"
What a joke. Ji Nai's face darkened immediately. There was nothing wrong with Concubine Hui's words, but her tone was sarcastic. It seemed that his image had always been too weak, so Concubine Hui dared to dance in front of him.
But it's true, she doesn't even take the queen seriously, let alone herself.
Ji Nai sneered and placed the teacup in his hand heavily on the table. "I wonder if Concubine Hui has any advice for me?" Ji Nai deliberately emphasized the word "concubine Hui".
As expected, Concubine Hui was furious. She stood up and pointed at Ji Nai's nose and cursed: "Who do you think you are? Even if your position is higher than mine, you only have a sickly child, and you don't know when he will die."
"Crack, snap."
The whole place was silent. No one expected that the usually gentle Ma Jia would rush up and slap Concubine Hui twice. The action was so fast that no one could react, including Concubine Hui herself.
When Concubine Hui finally came to her senses, she was about to fight back with anger, but she saw murderous intent in Ma Jia's eyes. Even though Concubine Hui was arrogant, she had never seen real bloodshed, so she was frightened for a moment.
"If you dare to curse Chengrui again, I will make you pay." After saying this, Ji Nai sat back, leaving Concubine Hui standing there in a daze.
This development gave the other concubines a good show and also made them realize one thing: Concubine Hui, who was so arrogant that she dared to challenge the queen, was just a paper tiger.
Of course, no one would risk doing anything before she loses all her supports, such as the favor of the Emperor and Prince Chengqing.
Ji Nai picked up the teacup again and tried hard to calm himself.
"I told you, I can't stop you at all." Yuan Xu said helplessly.
When Concubine Hui said those words just now, she was also very excited. Without noticing, Ji Nai rushed out and slapped her twice. After knowing the explanation of Ji Nai's actions, Yuan Xu finally reacted.
"What should I do if the Queen comes out later and you slap her twice?" Yuan Xu scratched his head worriedly.
[Don't worry, I won't do anything. ]
Facing Yuan Xu's suspicious eyes, Ji Nai reaffirmed. If it wasn't for her, it was Concubine Hui's bad mouth that really attracted too much hatred. His attention was now completely focused on Concubine Hui.
"Concubine Hui, what are you still standing here for? Sit down quickly." The Queen came out and started scolding directly.
"No, just now..."
Faced with the queen's rebuke, Concubine Hui wanted to refute but was interrupted by the queen.
"No matter what the reason is, this is Kunning Palace. It is really rude for you to stand like this."
"I was unruly. She was the one who hit me." Concubine Hui pointed her finger at Ji Nai.
Ji Nai snorted, "Try pointing your finger at me again."
Concubine Hui was so frightened that she quickly retracted her hand, but she still stiffened her neck and refused to admit her mistake.
"Concubine Hui has indeed not learned the rules well. She even dares to call herself ""me"" in front of the Empress." The speaker was Concubine Zhang.
Concubine Hui did not expect that a mere Zhang would dare to criticize her, so she glared at her.
The queen saw Concubine Hui's look and became even more dissatisfied. She scolded her again: "Okay, Concubine Hui, what Sister Zhang said is right. What is wrong with you? Is this the upbringing of the Nara clan?"
This was a bit harsh. If it was not handled properly, it would even affect the reputation of the Nara family outside the palace. Concubine Hui also knew the seriousness of the matter. After bowing, she defended herself, "It was really that I was so angry that I lost my mind. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Are you mad? What are you mad about?"
"Your Majesty, you may not know that Sister Ma Jia slapped me just now. This is in Kunning Palace. Doesn't it mean she doesn't take you seriously?"
The queen was so angry that she almost laughed. Was Nara trying to sow discord between her and Ma Jia? She didn't think that she had been provoking her before, and now she could make the decision for her with just a few words from her.
"I saw everything that happened just now, Concubine Hui, shouldn't you hit me?"
"What?" Concubine Hui did not expect the Queen to say that.
"Cursing the heir to the throne is a serious crime. Let alone just slapping you twice, even directly executing you would not be too much of a stretch."
Concubine Hui shuddered, and then she realized that she had made a big mistake, but she was too embarrassed to admit it.
The Queen continued, "With your character, if Prince Chengqing were kept in the Yanxi Palace, I'm afraid he would become useless because of you."
"you dare!"
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
Concubine Hui didn't know how things turned out like this. She was just making sarcastic remarks because she was unhappy that her rank was lower than that of Ma Jia. However, not only was she beaten, she was also scolded by the Queen and her Chengqing was even taken away from her. How could this be possible?
Concubine Hui knew that the Queen was not exaggerating. As long as the other party executed first and reported to the emperor later, even if His Majesty was dissatisfied, he would not save the Queen's face.
As for whether the emperor would be dissatisfied or even disgusted by her, does the current queen still need to worry about this? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is no room for retreat in her relationship with the emperor.
Even though she felt humiliated, for the sake of her own happiness, Concubine Hui still knelt down and pleaded guilty to the Queen. As for those who humiliated her, the Queen, Ma Jiashi, etc., they were waiting for her.
The Queen didn't want to take Chengqing away from Concubine Hui, but she still punished her to copy the palace rules. This time, Concubine Hui's reputation as a person without rules was completely established.
