Rebirth of the Princess She is weird

Chapter 27: Palace Rules, Imperial Family...

In the afternoon, the Queen went to talk to the concubines, while Yuan Fuge ate in the Lizheng Hall. She sat in front of the hand-washing stand, and Yun Ping wiped her hands carefully, "Princess, why didn't the Queen Mother punish the Fifth Princess just now?"

Yuan Fuge remained calm and said, "The palace rules are strict. I believe someone will punish her."

The Third Prince still had a chance to follow his grandfather to Jiangnan, but he should never have touched the Queen Mother's reverse scale at this critical juncture. After being punished twice, Shen Que believed that he would not dare to challenge the Queen Mother even if he had the ability to fight again.

The third prince's future was ruined precisely because of Yuan Luoxia's slip of the tongue, and the virtuous concubine was in charge of the harem, so it was believed that she would "enforce the law impartially."

Hearing that the flowers in the Imperial Garden were in bloom, the ladies from all the palaces went to enjoy the flowers, including someone as cold as the Empress. Yuan Fuge also went with her mother, and the group of people were there, talking and laughing.

During this time, she had not seen Concubine Xian much. She was said to be busy taking care of the affairs in the palace. According to what Yun Ping had heard, Concubine Xian was talking in Concubine Shu's palace. All the old people in her palace were purged, especially those confidants. They said that the Seventh and Eighth Princesses were not good and it was all because of the irresponsibility of these palace servants. But who didn't know that she was making indirect accusations?

The virtuous concubine wiped out almost all of those people, as if this would make her feel better.

The whole afternoon, Concubine Xian acted arrogantly and called the shots in Concubine Shu's palace. Yuan Luoxia cried and begged for mercy, but Concubine Xian insisted on handling the matter impartially.

In the evening, the emperor looked at the mess on the ground with a sullen face. He glanced at the concubine and her daughter. Yuan Luoxia deliberately showed him her wound. The emperor had a deadpan face. Yuan Luoqing stopped her sister and swore that she would persuade her to abide by the rules. Only then did the emperor leave.

When she arrived at the Jinle Palace, Concubine Xian cried and told the emperor about her miserable life as soon as she saw him.

The emperor couldn't stand it any longer and shouted, "The concubine is usually quiet, and the two princesses are still young, and you cleaned their palaces so clean?"

Xian Fei knelt on the ground, covered her handkerchief and continued to grieve: "Your Majesty, I am also following the palace rules, right?"

"You can't be so harsh."

"If it's not severe, how can they remember it? Didn't you also hit Yuan Yang hard?"

The emperor looked back in shock and anger, "If I hadn't punished him, who knows how Yuan Yang would have been punished by the Queen Mother. He was called over as soon as he came to court today. If he had behaved properly, I wouldn't have scolded him so harshly!"

The virtuous concubine stopped talking and just kept crying.

The emperor was annoyed by what he heard, and turned around and said in a cold voice: "Last time it was Yu Fei, this time it's Yuan Yang. I don't know whether it's your brother's fault or yours. After Yu Fei's marriage, Yuan Yang will be confined to the palace to study the national law with the university scholars, and will not be allowed out until the new year!"

The virtuous concubine screamed heartbreakingly, "No! Your Majesty, how can you be so cruel? He is my own flesh and blood, I cannot..."

The emperor leaned forward, narrowed his eyes dangerously, and said in a cold voice: "How come the princesses can accept the punishment according to the palace rules, but the third prince can't... Is this what Shen Que meant?"

Xianfei immediately got up, wiped the tears from her eyes and shook her head: "No... No, the Shen family is loyal to His Majesty."

She broke out in a cold sweat and continued, "Yuan Yang can be punished. He bullies his superiors and flatters his inferiors, hangs out with lowly women, and humiliates the royal family. He deserves to be punished..."

The virtuous concubine thought she was in the emperor's favor and acted recklessly. She could have sat back and enjoyed the fruits of her labor and lived a peaceful life until her old age, but she should not have touched the emperor's real weak spot.

At night, Concubine Xian mentioned Yuan Yang's matter again. The emperor was so angry that he went straight to the imperial study.

The virtuous concubine sat alone in front of the incense and candles, wiping away her tears and breathing heavily.

When it was time for dinner, Shen Huaixu came to pay his respects to his aunt under the pretext of filial piety. No one dared to stop him. This was the fifth prince consort who was about to get married, and who would dare to offend him?

Shen Huaixu whispered to comfort his aunt, and said neatly, "Aunt, we underestimated Yuan Fuge at the beginning. We thought she was easy to control, but we didn't know that she was the man-eating wolf."

"But she didn't do anything?" Concubine Xian asked puzzledly.

"That's because she disguised herself well. Aunt, think about it, how did she know about the perfect trap we designed? Why did the Queen Mother rush back immediately? Even this time when my cousin happened, the Queen Mother came back immediately. But she was injured and didn't know that His Majesty was punishing my cousin. Don't you think these things are a bit too coincidental?"

The virtuous concubine held her handkerchief in her hand, tears in her eyes, and thought carefully about what had happened during this period. How could it be such a coincidence that every time she met that girl, something happened to people around her? It turned out that it was all premeditated.

Her eyes immediately turned red: "I see, I thought it was my son who was disobeying the rules, but it turns out she did it on purpose. I never provoked this girl, but she actually picked trouble with me first. This is really outrageous!"

"It has become like this now, don't worry, aunt." Shen Huaixu took out a piece of paper with something sparsely drawn on it, "My nephew has received some news during his house arrest recently."

"What's wrong? Is there any news about my brother?"

"No, the Princess's Mansion was attacked a few days ago. The one who rescued her was not a master from the Imperial Palace, but Lu Yanxiu, the Major General of the Lu Mansion. It is said that he stayed at the Princess' Mansion all night!" He placed great emphasis on the last few words. He pointed at the character analysis chart on the paper angrily. "My nephew has read it carefully. My father is away, the Imperial Palace is in a panic, the Princess' Mansion was attacked at night, and the Lu Mansion went to rescue her. There is only one possibility..."

"Yes, the military token!"

Shen Huaixu was shocked, "Aunt, do you know?"

"I heard from others that General Lu was called back to the court ahead of time and met with the emperor in the imperial study for a while. Someone in the court said that he was given a military token to restrain the Shen and Helian families." Concubine Xian looked at the dragon pattern on the bed curtain with cold eyes, "He was probably stimulated by your desire to marry into the royal family, so he stood up to look at the court situation."

"It's impossible that he dotes on his aunt so much..."

"How much is the favor of the emperor worth? It's all supported by the aristocratic families. We must get the military token. I hope our Shen family will be remembered forever!" Concubine Xian dug her nails into her flesh and gritted her teeth, "Since Yuan Fuge has joined the game, let's just let it go! It seems that she hates the childhood sweetheart that the queen arranged for her. I hope you know what to do!"

Shen Huaixu lowered his head in embarrassment, "Don't worry, aunt, I know what to do."

"That's good," Concubine Xian suddenly raised her voice and said with a smile, "Hey, you said you gave me these valuable things, are you afraid that I won't let you go?"

Shen Huaixu immediately smiled and returned the gift, "Oh, aunt, it's not uncommon to have too many gifts. Besides, my father couldn't make it back that day, so he needed your help."

Xian Fei glared at him and said, "Why are we still talking about this? I will help you. It's late at night, so go back and get ready. Start taking care of Yu Fei's sisters."

"Nephew, I understand. Thank you for your advice, aunt."

The man in the bright yellow robe in the imperial study suddenly opened his eyes and said coldly: "Did he really only say this? Did he not mention Prime Minister Shen?"

"No, just some intimate conversation before the wedding."

The man thought for a moment, sighed secretly, turned around and said, "Go down, I understand."
