Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them

March flew by.

The emperor favored almost all of the newly arrived concubines, but the most favored was Consort Rong, Liang Qiuli.

The emperor was in a good mood that day and took a walk alone in the imperial garden.

"Did you hear that?"

A young palace maid whispered to her companion beside her.

"What is it? Why are you being so mysterious?"

His companion leaned closer curiously.

Upon hearing this, the emperor, who was behind the artificial hill, paused slightly and frowned.

Wang Youxi wanted to step forward and teach those palace maids who didn't know the rules and were being lazy and shirking their duties a lesson, but the emperor stopped him by raising his hand.

Clearly, the emperor also wanted to know what the two young palace maids were talking about in private.

"That's Consort Shen, who was confined to her quarters as soon as she entered the palace. Oh, I heard that she changed completely after that. She was always bullying and beating people. Even her personal maid was tortured by her and cried all day long."

"really?"

"Who knows? Anyway, people in the palace are saying that during the three months she was confined, she became very irritable and often lost her temper."

"How dare you two talk about our master behind his back! You're courting death!"

The emperor, of course, did not believe what the palace maid said.

A cold glint flashed in the emperor's eyes. These two palace maids dared to speak ill of Shen Qingyao behind her back; they were truly audacious.

For the past three months, the emperor has not seen Shen Qingyao at all. This is the first time he has gone so long without seeing her since he fell in love with her.

The emperor wasn't truly indifferent to Shen Qingyao; rather, there were simply too many beautiful women in the harem, making him linger and forget about her.

This made the emperor, who had come to his senses, feel a little guilty towards Shen Qingyao. He wanted to find an opportunity to visit Shen Qingyao in the next few days, as a way of supporting her.

As for the incident where Shen Qingyao hit Liang Qiuli, the emperor felt that the punishment had been given and that was the past.

The emperor suddenly spoke, startling the two palace maids so much that they trembled and immediately knelt on the ground, shaking with fear.

"This servant dares not, Your Majesty, please spare my life."

The two palace maids kowtowed and begged for mercy repeatedly.

“Take these two away and interrogate them. Wang Youxi, you go to Chengqian Palace in person, and have Consort Rong go to Fengyi Palace.”

The emperor gave the order, and someone immediately responded, taking the two palace maids away.

Wang Youxi also received the imperial decree and turned to head towards Chengqian Palace.

Chengqian Palace.

"Greetings, Consort Rong. His Majesty summons Consort Rong to the Phoenix Palace."

As soon as Wang Youxi entered Chengqian Palace, he saw Liang Qiuli. He quickly stepped forward to pay his respects and then conveyed the emperor's decree to Liang Qiuli.

Liang Qiuli was reviewing palace affairs when she heard Wang Youxi's words. She paused in her work, wondering what the emperor was up to.

"Eunuch Wang, do you know why His Majesty summoned me?"

Liang Qiuli asked Ruyu to slip Wang Youxi some money for tea.

Wang Youxi accepted the tea payment, feeling secretly pleased, but he didn't show it on his face.

"It's related to Consort Shen."

That's all the advice Wang Youxi could offer; the rest is up to Consort Rong to figure out herself.

Upon hearing this, Liang Qiuli understood. She instructed Ruyu to prepare the sedan chair, and then followed Wang Youxi to Fengyi Palace.

Liang Qiuli tapped her fingers lightly on the armrest.

She said that as soon as the lockdown was lifted, Shen Qingyao would find something to cause her trouble.

Although he was cursing and swearing, he was still trying to figure out what the emperor was thinking.

Although the emperor's feelings for Shen Qingyao weren't as deep anymore, they had spent so many years together, so he would definitely go to see her after three months.

So why is he summoning her to the Empress's Phoenix Palace now? Does he feel that they have neglected his beloved for the past three months?

Although Liang Qiuli's guess wasn't entirely correct, it was pretty close to the truth.

"Ru Lu, go..."

Liang Qiuli stopped the sedan chair and whispered to Ru Lu, telling her to investigate immediately.

Although she has a system that makes it easy for her to find out anything, her points are limited, and she can't rely on the system forever.

……

"Empress, I told you to properly reorganize the harem before, and this is how you've done it?"

The Empress was also inexplicably subjected to a barrage of questions from the Emperor; she had no idea what had happened.

It was only after an explanation from one of the emperor's eunuchs that she learned what had happened in the Imperial Garden.

The Empress thought to herself that she remembered Lanxin had given Consort Shen a different suggestion, but she didn't have time to think about it too much.

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged!"

The empress immediately knelt on the ground and pleaded in a mournful voice.

"Although Consort Shen is under house arrest, I have not been harsh or negligent towards her. I beg Your Majesty to investigate."

As for the palace maids in the Imperial Garden who gossiped, I will certainly punish them severely as a warning to others.”

"Your Majesty, you are the mother of the nation. Don't kneel down so easily."

The emperor knew that the empress was probably telling the truth, so he couldn't punish her. He saw that she was still kneeling on the ground and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

Upon hearing this, the Empress had no choice but to get up, but she was also extremely aggrieved.

When Liang Qiuli entered, she saw the Empress with slightly red eyes and the Emperor with an unpleasant expression.

"Greetings to Your Majesty the Emperor, greetings to Your Majesty the Empress."

Liang Qiuli curtsied. After Ru Lu returned and told her the truth, all she could say was that Shen Qingyao was really... she really didn't know what to say.

"Get up." The emperor waved his hand, and his expression softened when he saw Liang Qiuli enter.

"Consort Rong, you are now assisting in managing the inner palace. The Empress will speak with you about this matter."

Upon hearing this, Liang Qiuli looked at the Empress, who then recounted the entire story.

After listening to the Empress's account, Liang Qiuli had already made up her mind, but she did not express her opinion immediately. Instead, she quietly considered her options.

“Your Majesty, I believe that Consort Shen is a kind person and would not arbitrarily lay a hand on her servants. There must be some misunderstanding.”

Liang Qiuli spoke softly, her words fair and just, but she steered the conversation toward whether Shen Qingyao was truly harsh on the palace maids, rather than on the matter of the palace maids in the Imperial Garden gossiping.

After all, the palace maids in the Imperial Garden were speaking ill of their mistress. She and the Empress jointly managed the inner palace, so if the Emperor wanted to punish them, they would certainly be held responsible.

Therefore, diverting attention is the best solution.

Moreover, according to the information Liang Qiuli knew, the incident of the palace maids in the Imperial Garden speaking ill of their masters was actually orchestrated by Shen Qingyao herself.

He wanted to stage a self-inflicted injury ruse in front of the emperor.

She made the emperor feel that she had not had a good time during these three months and had been mistreated.

However, the few palace maids under her command were either bribed or genuinely punished by her, causing them to harbor resentment. So, the self-inflicted injury plan turned into a complaining session.

"Go on?"

The emperor certainly didn't believe that Shen Qingyao would be the type to be harsh on her servants, so Liang Qiuli's words suited him perfectly.

No wonder he values ​​her.

"Since there is a misunderstanding, we should ask Your Majesty to investigate and clear Consort Shen's name. Therefore, we request Your Majesty to send someone to investigate whether the maids in Consort Shen's palace have been in contact with anyone and how they were bribed to dare to slander their mistress in this way."

Upon hearing Liang Qiuli's words, the Empress's expression changed for a moment. She nervously clenched the handkerchief in her hand, for Lanxin, who was beside Shen Qingyao, was her person.

However, even if the emperor investigated, it shouldn't be easy to give himself away, the empress tried to reassure herself.

"Consort Rong is right. Wang Youxi, you should personally lead the investigation and make sure Consort Shen is exonerated!"

The emperor gave instructions to Wang Youxi, the chief eunuch beside him.

At this moment, the emperor could never have imagined that Shen Qingyao would once again tarnish their beautiful memories from back then.
