Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

Finally, everything quieted down and Yixiu nodded in satisfaction.

"Very good! Come on, take this traitorous slave out and beat him to death!"

Little Li Zi didn't react for a moment. He was stunned for a moment, then cried out, "Empress, I absolutely did not lie. Please spare me, Empress. I really don't know anything!"

Yu Da Ying clenched her hands in fear. She looked up at Yi Xiu, her eyes full of panic and anxiety.

"Empress, what are you doing? What crime did Little Li commit? He is my close friend. How could you kill him like this?"

Slap! Another slap!

Jianqiu shook her hand lightly and said leisurely, "I agree, but you haven't learned your lesson enough. The Queen hasn't asked any questions yet, so what right do you have to interrupt?"

Concubine Hua could no longer bear to watch. She stepped forward and said to Yixiu, "Empress, although you are the mistress of the harem, you cannot do whatever you want here! What mistakes did Yu Ying and the people around her make? Do you think you can kill people so casually just to protect Concubine Xin?"

Yixiu curled her lips and smiled. She walked forward slowly, and the bottom of the flowerpot made a crisp sound on the stone slab. With every step forward, a hint of panic appeared in Hua Fei's eyes.

Yixiu approached Hua Fei, the two of them were very close now. Yixiu smiled slightly and said, "Hua Fei, I am the Empress. Let alone dealing with a eunuch, even if I strangled Yu Yingying here today, what would happen? Don't think that just because you are a concubine, I can't do anything to you!"

Before Concubine Hua could react, Yixiu slapped her hard.

Concubine Hua was stunned. Her eyes and mouth were wide open as she looked at Yixiu in surprise.

Concubine Xian's eyes were full of admiration, her sister was so amazing!

Hua Fei suddenly screamed, covering her face with her hands, and shouted, "I want to see the emperor, I want to see the emperor!"

Xin Changzai hadn't expected that this matter would become such a big deal.

The Empress and Concubine Hua were both honored and favored. In the end, the Emperor would not punish either of them, and people like herself and Yu Ying might become the victims of this struggle.

The stupid Yu Da Ying didn't understand what was going on. She just felt that the queen was crazy.

Empress Hua is the emperor's favorite, and she has such a powerful family in the previous dynasty. How dare the queen hit her?

"Hua Fei, as a concubine in the harem, how can you make loud noises in the palace? Don't worry, the Emperor has already sent someone to ask for your release!"

Songzhi also comforted Hua Fei: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, the emperor will be here soon, he will definitely make the decision for you!"

Hua Fei covered her face and glared at the Queen and Concubine Xian without saying a word, but just snorted angrily several times.

When the emperor arrived, Concubine Hua rushed forward and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. I'm afraid that if you were a moment later, you wouldn't be able to see me!"

The emperor felt very distressed when he saw the pitiful Concubine Hua, but considering that Concubine Yixiu and Concubine Xian were here, he could only cough lightly and help Concubine Hua up.

"The Queen and the Imperial Concubine are still here, what are they doing?"

Yixiu led everyone to pay their respects to the emperor, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you!"

The emperor sighed and sat on the main throne. "There are constant disturbances in the harem. How can I be at peace?"

Yixiu lowered her head, her tone also filled with a bit of grievance: "It is all my fault, Your Majesty, I beg you to punish me! But as the Empress, I must exercise the rights and obligations of the Empress of the Central Palace. I cannot watch the concubines in the palace suffer in vain."

Concubine Xin also stepped forward tactfully. She knelt on the ground and cried, "Your Majesty, please help me. I am truly wronged! I promised to tell Concubine Hua that I stole, but I have never done such a thing. Please investigate and clear my name!"

Concubine Xin has served the emperor for so many years, and the emperor knows a thing or two about her temper and personality.

"Get up first. If you have any grievances, I will take care of it for you!"

Yu Da Ying also quickly knelt on the ground, his tone gentle and pleasant, with some tunes from Kunqu Opera.

"Your Majesty, the gift you gave me was lost for some reason. I was so worried that I went to my new sister's palace to ask about it. Little Li said he saw my gift, so I asked them to search my sister's place, and who knew they would find it? I dared not hide it and told Concubine Hua about it. Your Majesty will handle it according to the palace rules and will not overstep the bounds in any way!"

Hua Fei said, "Xin Chang has been stealing and refusing to admit it. I had no choice but to send her to the Ministry of Punishment. But then the Imperial Concubine suddenly showed up, and I and Yu Dian scolded her severely. I was so angry that I argued with the Imperial Concubine, but then the Empress came back and slapped me and Yu Dian without giving us any explanation."

Concubine Hua deliberately showed the red marks on her face to the emperor, her tone full of anger.

The emperor fixed his gaze on Yixiu and said meaningfully, "Queen, did you do this?"

Yixiu smiled calmly and clapped her hands calmly. She saw Xiudong walking in with a little eunuch, while Huichun was holding a tray.

"Your Majesty, Hua Fei and Yu Cheng have provoked me. As Empress, I have no choice but to punish them as a warning to others! As for the theft of Yu Cheng and the scoundrel Xin Chang, I have already asked the maidservants to investigate!"

Xiudong threw the young eunuch to the ground, then she and Huichun knelt on the ground and saluted, saying, "Your servant greets the Emperor!"

The young eunuch knelt on the ground, knocking his head loudly.

"Your Majesty, I was instructed by Yu Yingying to wrongly accuse Concubine Xin. But Yu Yingying is my master. If I don't obey her, she will send me to serve in the Ministry of Punishment. I am under her threat and have no other choice. Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"

Xiudong raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction, his skills were becoming more and more advanced.

This little eunuch looked like he hadn't even had a scratch on his skin, but he had a hundred ways to make him suffer a fateful fate.

Yu Da Ying stood up from her chair in shock. She really didn't expect that Little Leo would turn against her at this time.

She knelt on the ground in fear and said, "Your Majesty, it's not me, I don't have it!"

Huichun handed the tray in her hand to Su Peisheng who was standing next to the emperor.

She then replied, "Your Majesty, this is the money I promised to pay off this young eunuch. Inside this purse are two hundred taels of silver notes and fifty taels of silver. I promised myself to be a maid, so this much money certainly wasn't something she saved up. The Imperial Household Department keeps records of the Emperor's rewards and the palace's monthly allowances, so you can easily find out."

Su Peisheng handed the tray to the emperor and Yixiu. The emperor looked down and then waved his hand.

He closed his eyes irritably and said in silence for a while, "At this point, what else do you have to say?"
