The Princess Kicks Down the Protagonists

Chapter 29: Falcon Demoted to Second-Class Guard

Everyone present was not a fool and they all heard the hidden meaning in Ziwei's words.

The emperor frowned slightly.

He knew Jingyan's temper very well, and he was definitely not the type to bully others for no reason.

Could it be...that he received instructions from the old Buddha?

But the old lady is kind-hearted and would never do such a thing.

But when he saw Ziwei lying on the ground with her bloody nails, the emperor became suspicious again.

Jingyan chuckled and followed Ziwei's words, "This is indeed your fault. You know whether I bullied you or not. When Falcon misunderstood me, you had so many opportunities to explain, but you didn't say anything, right?"

Ziwei panicked, "This servant... This servant is really scared."

"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that others will know that you are playing the victim to gain sympathy? Are you afraid that others will know that so many people wanted to help you, but you rejected them all. You had so many opportunities to avoid this suffering, but you still hurt yourself all over, right?" Jing Yan pressed on step by step.

Ziwei cried and shook her head, "How could this servant do such a thing? This servant..."

Before she could finish her words, Ziwei fainted.

"Ziwei! Ziwei! Call the imperial physician quickly!" Falcon rushed forward and hugged Ziwei.

Seeing Ziwei faint, the emperor subconsciously wanted to help her, but when he saw that Fulukang was one step ahead of him, he stopped.

Watching Ziwei being carried away by Falcon, the emperor's eyes were deep, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Send someone to get a doctor to take a look."

"I'm so overwhelmed by all of you talking. Jingyan, come here and explain it to me in detail."

Jingyan first told the story of Nanny Gui's hypocrisy, saying that he came here under the instructions of the Empress Dowager and was afraid that Ziwei would be wronged.

He recounted in detail everything that had happened in the imperial kitchen, and with the confirmation of Master Zhuang and many eyewitnesses from the imperial kitchen, the emperor finally understood the whole story.

Jing Yan looked aggrieved: "The old Buddha asked her to come because he liked Ziwei's craftsmanship. How could he deliberately torture her? I heard that Nanny Gui was pretending to obey but secretly disobeyed. The old Buddha was extremely worried, so he asked me to come."

The emperor nodded and said, "Your Majesty, please be merciful. I know where that hateful old slave is."

Nanny Gui hasn't shown up yet. I wonder if she saw the chaos in the imperial kitchen and ran away secretly.

But there's no point in running, you will definitely be punished.

Soon, Nanny Gui was caught. She initially cried out for innocence, but everyone had seen what she had done, and she could not deny it.

Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, she said that she had served the Empress Dowager for most of her life and begged the emperor for mercy.

Indeed, Nanny Gui was the nanny beside the Empress Dowager, and killing her directly might hurt the Empress Dowager's heart.

And we also have to consider the face of Karl Lagerfeld.

So the emperor just sent someone to beat her with twenty sticks and drove her out of the palace.

Seeing that the matter had been almost dealt with, the emperor stood up and wanted to leave.

Jingyan couldn't let Fulukang get away with it, so he spoke with an expression of reluctance.

"Uncle Huang, Fu Erkang might have been too concerned and confused, so he attacked Yan'er. I just asked General Fu to teach him a lesson for me. Please don't chop off his head, okay?"

Of course the emperor would not chop off Falcon. He might even let him go and try to smooth things over.

So Jingyan had to take the initiative.

Hearing Jingyan's words, the emperor frowned.

Concern leads to chaos?

Yes, when Ziwei fainted just now, Falcon seemed to be crazy, and even ignored the emperor and ran away.

The emperor thought of the previous times when Fu Erkang was so anxious when Ziwei was injured.

In addition, this time, Falcon actually attacked Jingyan for Ziwei.

I used to think that Falcon was just kind-hearted, or maybe he just didn't want to make Xiaoyanzi sad.

Now it seems that I need to think carefully about it.

"Yan'er, you are still too kind. Since Ling'an has already beaten him, I will not punish him corporally. I will demote him to a second-class guard and deduct one year's salary."

The emperor demoted Fulcon from the first-class imperial guard to the second-class with just a few words.

Although there is only one level difference, the gap between the two is like a chasm, and the punishment is not light.

This would be a huge blow especially to someone like Fulkang who is very concerned about his reputation, always talking about his identity as a royal guard, and using his identity to move around the palace.

However, at this time, Fu Erkang was still in Shufangzhai caring about Ziwei.

I don’t know what will happen when he receives the decree.

After arriving at Shufangzhai, Ziwei slowly woke up.

She was unable to argue with Jingyan and pretended to faint because she was too emotional, so she woke up soon.

I looked around and didn't see the person I wanted to see, and I couldn't help but feel disappointed.

She looked at Erkang, her almond-shaped eyes filled with tears.

"Erkang, I'm sorry. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be like this. Does it hurt when he hit you? Did you apply medicine? I'm sorry."

Erkang was very happy when he saw that the first thing Ziwei did after waking up was to care about him.

Holding Ziwei's hand, it felt like holding the whole world.

"I'm fine, but you, why did you faint for no reason? I was so worried. Are you feeling unwell anywhere else? Does your hand still hurt?"

Ziwei shed two lines of tears and shook her head with sobs.

Xiaoyanzi was furious: "This little witch is simply too much! I swear, I will never coexist with Jingyan!"

Ziwei shook her head, "She is a princess, Xiaoyanzi, I don't want you to do anything stupid for me."

As soon as Benjamin entered the door, he heard the conversation between Ziwei and Xiaoyanzi, and he frowned.

Why doesn't Ziwei tell the truth?

He really couldn't figure it out, so he could only say: "Xiaoyanzi, please stop talking. In fact, Jingyan didn't bully Ziwei at all."

Xiaoyanzi nodded: "I know! It was Jingyan who ordered Aunt Gui to do this, and Aunt Gui, I will not let it go!"

Benjamin was speechless about Xiaoyanzi's ability to understand her. Why was he so obsessed with Princess Jingyan?

He wanted to say something else, but Ziwei interrupted him: "Okay, let's not talk about me for now. Erkang, you hit the princess, the emperor will definitely punish you, what should we do?"

Falcon lowered his head in thought.

Now that he has calmed down, he knows that he was impulsive, but since he has already done it, there is no point in regretting it.

Fortunately, with the favor of Father and Empress Ling Fei, the losses should be minimized. The worst that can happen is a few beatings to give an explanation to the Empress Dowager.

If I bring it up in the future, it would be disrespectful to the princess. Fortunately, Benjamin stopped me today and didn't hit Jingyan.

As for today's attack on the princess by a palace maid, let Ama do it and then say that he was helping out when he saw injustice.

Anyway, after all is said and done, I will at most be labeled as impulsive.

No matter what, it was the princess who bullied others first. He was not afraid of making a big fuss. Making a big fuss would do greater damage to the princess's reputation and would only benefit himself. Jingyan would definitely suppress it.

Thinking of this, Erkang spoke confidently, "It's okay. The emperor will at most give me a few beatings for being disrespectful to the princess. Besides, the disrespect was because the princess bullied others first. I just saw injustice and helped."

Benjamin was so angry that he trembled when he heard Erkang's shameless remarks.

"I have to thank Benjamin for stopping me today, otherwise it would have been even more troublesome if I had slapped the princess."

Hearing this, Benjamin became even angrier.

This matter was originally Erkang's fault, and now he actually wants to put all the blame on Princess Jingyan!

Benjamin regretted it very much. He regretted that he had asked the princess for help, which caused her to suffer this unexpected disaster.
