Transmigrating into a short-lived cannon fodder, she beat the son of destiny to pieces
Chapter 23: The Infatuated Emperor and His Love-Brained Concubine (22)
The other young masters were stunned for a moment, and when they came to their senses, they hurried over with the maids beside them to separate the two.
As a result, as there were more children, the more trouble they caused, and they even scared the kitten in Pang Tong's arms.
"Meow!" The kitten let out a sharp cry, its fur stood up, and it jumped out of Pang Tong's arms, stretching out its sharp claws and starting to attack indiscriminately.
Most of the people present were children. They became panic-stricken for a moment and began to attack the kitten subconsciously to protect themselves.
As waves of cries of pain came, they not only attracted the guards patrolling nearby, but also attracted the attention of many noble ladies in the imperial garden.
Just when the guards arrived, the kitten was about to bite Pang Tong.
Pang Tong was just a young boy. He panicked for a moment and subconsciously grabbed Xiao Helin beside him and pushed him forward.
The kitten was about to stretch out its sharp claws to scratch Xiao Helin's face.
Xiao Huai, who had just walked out of the cold palace, immediately used his lightness skills to hug Xiao Helin and take him back.
At the same time, Liu Liu jumped out from behind and bit the crazy kitten quickly and fiercely!
Although the kitten was much bigger than Liuliu, Liuliu was an artificial intelligence system after all, so how could it not be able to deal with a kitten?
I saw Liuliu arching his body, his pupils dilated, his cat hair standing on end, and he let out a low growl.
"Meow!!! Meow meow meow!" What kind of bastard is that! How dare you touch your Sixth Master's people? Sixth Master will let you know why the flowers are so red!
So Liuliu jumped up and started fighting with the crazy kitten.
After a while, the kitten had a lot of hair pulled off by Liu Liu, and there were bloodstains all over its body. It began to howl.
"Meow~"
Liuliu stretched out his claws and pressed its head tightly, warning: "Meow!!!" Be quiet!
At this moment, Xiao Helin was obviously frightened. He threw himself into Xiao Huai's arms and began to cry aggrievedly.
The palace guards also quickly stepped forward and stabbed the mad kitten to death with a sword.
When the Queen and Concubine De came with a group of ladies, they saw a group of young men crying loudly and the scene was in chaos.
Xiao Helin, who was originally frightened, couldn't hold back when he saw Concubine De coming. He threw himself into Concubine De's arms and burst into tears.
The ladies also came forward, pulled up their children and asked about the situation.
"Oh my god! What happened? Why are there bloodstains on my hands?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone began to check their children's physical conditions.
Because the kitten went crazy and attacked indiscriminately, several children were scratched by its claws, but fortunately, none of them were serious.
The most serious one was Pang Tong.
He was the closest to the kitten, and there were three bloody scratches on the side of his face from the kitten, which were still bleeding.
Pang Tong was the son of the Minister of Personnel, and his wife was also frightened by Pang Tong's injuries.
"Tong'er, what happened?! Why are there wounds all over your face and neck?!"
But Pang Tong came to his senses at this moment and remembered that he was afraid of being scratched by the cat, so he took the initiative to push Xiao Helin out.
He also realized the seriousness of the matter, lowered his head and said nothing, and even didn't feel the pain from the wounds on his body.
Upon seeing this, the queen quickly sent for the imperial physician to treat the injured child's wounds, and then interrogated the maid who was present at the time.
After understanding the whole story, Concubine De took the initiative to attack, "I never thought that Young Master Pang could be so vicious at such a young age! He was trying to push my son away to save him from disaster!"
"Please forgive me, Empress Defei. I'm afraid that's not the case. Although Tong'er is naughty at home, he must never do such a wicked thing!"
De Fei was furious. "Are you saying that I have wronged you?"
The Shangshu's wife was in a state of confusion, "I dare not!"
Concubine De glared at him, "Then let your son speak for himself!"
So everyone looked at Pang Tong who was huddled beside the Shangshu's wife.
However, Pang Tong was already frightened, and now, feeling the scrutiny of everyone, he immediately broke down and cried, "I... I didn't mean it."
"I saw... Meow Meow was about to hurt me, and I was terrified. I didn't know who was next to me, so I subconsciously grabbed the other person's clothes and tried to hide..."
"I didn't mean to hurt your Highness..."
The Shangshu's wife was slightly startled, "Tong'er..."
Concubine De sneered, "Your son has admitted it now, what else do you have to say?"
The Shangshu's wife knelt down and pleaded, "Empress Defei, this incident started with the Seventh Prince. Tracing back to the source, it was the Young Prince who started it first. Tong'er's neck was also bitten by the Young Prince."
"They are still young, and it was just a minor quarrel. The young prince is safe and sound now. I hope that the Virtuous Concubine will show some mercy."
Concubine De looked at her coldly, "If I don't want to show mercy, what can you do?"
When Xiao Helin was naughty, she couldn't bear to say a harsh word. When had her son ever suffered such an injustice?
When Defei said this, the atmosphere at the scene froze for a moment.
The Queen came out to mediate and advised, "Okay, Concubine De, now the matter is very clear. This matter started because of Xiao Huai."
"The young master of the Pang family is young after all, so it's understandable that he lost his composure for a moment."
"Both of them are guilty, so just give them a simple punishment, a small punishment to serve as a warning."
"Otherwise, if the Minister of Personnel knew about this, he would be exhausted from attending to government affairs while worrying about family matters! Now, comforting Old Nine is more important."
Concubine De remained silent, and just stroked Xiao Helin's hair lovingly.
She understood what the Queen meant.
The Minister of Personnel is a neutral faction in the court. If she handles this matter improperly, she might turn against the Crown Prince prematurely.
The Queen's actions at this moment were also a gesture of goodwill towards the Shangshu's wife.
She needs to decide what is more important.
Seeing that Concubine De didn't say anything, the Queen smiled knowingly and said immediately, "Then punish the young master of the Pang family by making him face the wall at home for a month to reflect on his mistakes and mend his ways. In the future, he must not act inappropriately."
"As for Xiao Huai... since this incident was caused by you, you will be punished with ten lashes of the cane."
After he finished speaking, everyone had no objection, and no one felt sorry for Xiao Huaiming.
He is just a discarded pawn. Now that he is released, it can calm the anger of the people. Why not do it?
Sui Ning stood among the palace maids, her eyes filled with anger.
This whole thing was an unexpected disaster for Xiao Huai!
Just because Xiao Huai has no power and influence, he has to be bullied like this!
Xiao Helin, who had been seeking comfort in Concubine De's arms, raised his head with a look of confusion and disbelief.
Before Xiao Helin could say anything, he heard Sui Ning's voice, "My Lady, I refuse to obey!"
Sui Ning walked to the lower seat and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I am a maid serving His Majesty the Seventh Prince. I'm afraid that the judgment Your Majesty just made against His Majesty was unfair."
The Queen was furious and shouted, "How dare you! A mere servant dare to question me!"
Sui Ning continued calmly, "The Empress is the mother of a nation. As a humble servant, I dare not offend Feng Yan."
"It's just what happened just now. How can His Highness the Seventh Prince be innocent?"
"Although the Seventh Prince is in the cold palace, he is still the Dragon Prince no matter what. Pang Tong slandered the Seventh Prince, but why did it end up being the Seventh Prince's fault?"
"Pang Tong's cat was committing a crime, and it was only because His Highness the Seventh Prince arrived in time to stop it that a disaster was averted."
"I may be a fool, but I know that merits are rewarded and faults are punished."
"Your Highness the Seventh Prince should have made great contributions, but the two queens not only did not reward him, but now they want to punish him with a cane. What's the logic behind this?"
"The Empress is the role model of the nation. If rewards and punishments are not clear, how can she earn the trust of the people?"
