The Strongest Female Cannon Fodder in Quick Transmigration
Chapter 87 The Beloved Concubine System 3
"Your Majesty, I don't know what I did wrong that you would punish me like this," Consort Rong immediately feigned grievance.
"Consort Rong, how can you be so impolite? I just explained why I'm punishing you; it's for your own good."
"Were you not listening properly? Do you not respect me, the Imperial Concubine?"
Ruoshui sat languidly on the chaise lounge, resting her chin on her hand.
"You're not even listening to me! This is insubordination!"
After saying that, Ruoshui casually pointed to a concubine sitting quietly in a corner and said:
"That one, right, the one over there in the yellow shirt, how many strokes of the cane are you supposed to get for disrespecting your superior?"
When the concubine saw that Ruoshui had called her name, she quickly stood up and gave Ruoshui a slight curtsy.
"Your Majesty, according to the law, it is forty strokes of the cane."
Ruoshui turned to Consort Rong and said, "Did you hear that? Forty strokes of the cane."
"Guards, drag Consort Rong away!" Ruoshui waved her hand, and someone came forward to drag Consort Rong away.
Upon seeing this, Consort Rong panicked immediately, realizing that Ruoshui was really going to be punished with forty strokes of the cane.
After being beaten with forty strokes, I don't know how many days it will take for him to recover.
Consort Rong immediately begged for mercy, saying, "Your Majesty, I am innocent! I am innocent!"
Ruoshui: Why is it that in palace intrigue dramas and novels, when characters are dragged away, they only say this one line? Can't you change some of the lines?
Ruoshui calmly observed Consort Rong, who, in order to resist the palace servants who came to drag her away, was behaving like a shrew.
The hairpins that adorned her head had fallen off, and her hair and clothes were a mess.
"Very well, I'll give you a chance. Tell me how you've been wronged," Ruoshui said.
"...".
Consort Rong: Damn it, I don't even know where I went wrong, how am I supposed to know how I was wronged?
"Look, you said you were wronged, I gave you a chance to plead your case, but you didn't speak up. You're a really strange person."
Consort Rong: Strange, strange my ass.
"Take him away," Ruoshui said to the palace servants.
"Your Majesty, you can't treat me like this! Your Majesty! This is settling a personal score!" Consort Rong said.
"Yeah, I'm just settling a personal score, so what? Any objections?" Ruoshui said nonchalantly.
Everyone: You actually said it yourself!
"Your Majesty, if the Emperor finds out that you are so unruly, he will not like such a barbaric person."
"Furthermore, Your Majesty, your abuse of power is contrary to the virtues and morality expected of an empress."
Consort Rong was making a last-ditch effort, trying to use the Emperor to suppress Ruoshui.
"Your Majesty? I wouldn't deign to have any interest in those philandering men."
"As for being virtuous and kind, do you think that kind of thing applies to me?" Ruoshui said.
Everyone: We know you're not exactly a virtuous and gentle person, but please don't be so self-righteous! Also, it's true that the emperor is a womanizer, but don't say it out loud! Doesn't the emperor have any dignity?
One of the concubines, fearing that if things continued this way, Ruoshui might say something disrespectful again, said:
"What kind of work are you palace servants doing? Quickly take Consort Rong away! You can't even catch one person with so many people?"
Palace servants: Damn it, didn't you see how fierce this woman is? Her fighting power is off the charts! She's scratched our faces raw!
After a struggle, Consort Rong was finally dragged away, and the farce finally came to an end.
Ruoshui instructed the other concubines, "You may all leave. I need to rest. Also, please cancel the morning greetings every day from now on."
"Why bother with greetings so early in the morning? It's too much trouble for everyone to run around like that."
Everyone: You just don't want to get up because it's too early, right?
Since Ruoshui had spoken, the other concubines could not linger any longer and all curtsied to Ruoshui to take their leave.
After the concubines left, Ruoshui immediately felt that the hall was more spacious, and the scent of cosmetics in the air gradually faded away.
Ruoshui sighed, "If these concubines had stayed any longer, the stench of their cosmetics alone would have suffocated me."
Everyone had left, and it was finally quiet, but Ruoshui felt bored again.
There were no entertainment facilities in this ancient time, so Ruoshui, feeling bored, took out her mobile phone from the interdimensional shop.
I played a few rounds of single-player games, but I still felt it was boring. In ancient times, there was no internet. No wonder women in ancient times were always fighting in palaces and domestic palaces.
Now Ruoshui knows that these women are definitely just bored.
"System, aren't you a system? Can't you connect to the internet? Don't tell me you can't."
"Master, you underestimate me. I can connect to the networks of every small world," the system replied.
"Then turn on Wi-Fi for me," Ruoshui said.
system:"……"
"What's wrong? Is it not working? Your system is so useless. What's the point of having you? You can't even turn on Wi-Fi," Ruoshui said with great disdain for the system.
"But it's possible...however..." the system hesitated.
"But whatever, stop talking nonsense and turn on the Wi-Fi for me right now."
System: Damn it, this is ancient times! Is it appropriate for you to take out a cell phone? Taking out a cell phone is one thing, but you even need to connect to the internet?
But in the end, the system still succumbed to the evil forces led by Ruoshui.
From then on, Ruoshui stayed in her palace every day playing games, refusing to see any of the concubines who came to see her.
However, even if Ruoshui doesn't seek trouble, trouble will always find her.
A few days ago, she said that the emperor was a womanizer, and I don't know who told the emperor about it.
Enraged, the emperor wrote an imperial edict, accusing Ruoshui of defying the imperial authority and deposing her from her position as empress.
……
"What an idiot teammate, let's go!"
"I can't carry it, I can't carry it."
"Is this teammate a Buddhist? Why isn't he killing anyone?"
Ruoshui was playing a game when she heard a eunuch's voice coming from outside the door to report something.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! Eunuch Li has come to deliver the imperial edict!"
"I'm busy, don't bother me. It's just an imperial edict, what's the rush?" Ruoshui was playing a game at a crucial moment and had no time to receive the edict.
Eunuch: That's an imperial edict! Can you please stop being so reckless?
At that moment, a loud and shrill voice came from not far outside the door.
"The imperial edict has arrived; the Empress shall receive it."
Ruoshui instructed the eunuchs outside the door, "Just tell them I'm busy and don't have time to receive the imperial decree." Ruoshui still refused to put down her phone.
Eunuch: I'm not going! I'll die if I go!
The chief eunuch who was there to deliver the imperial edict had arrived in front of the Empress's palace. Seeing that no one had come to receive the edict yet, he called out again, "The imperial edict has arrived."
The wind blew through the fallen leaves on the ground, but the Empress's palace gates remained empty; no one came to receive the imperial decree.
The chief eunuch had never encountered such a situation in his entire life.
Normally, people would travel a long way to kneel and wait to receive the imperial decree with both hands.
Does this empress have a death wish? She's even refusing to accept imperial edicts.
Should I go in to deliver the imperial decree or go back directly?
After much deliberation, the eunuch finally went inside.
He shouted "Imperial edict has arrived!" several more times, until the head eunuch's voice was almost hoarse, but still no one came to receive the edict.
There was no other way; the chief eunuch had to go back and report, otherwise he wouldn't be able to handle the emperor's wrath.
So the eunuch had no choice but to announce the decree to the empty palace.
"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Empress Ji's conduct is contrary to the virtues of a woman. Therefore, she is temporarily removed from her position as Empress as a warning. This is the imperial decree."
The imperial edict had been read aloud, but what could be done if no one took it? The chief eunuch was very worried, as he couldn't very well take it back himself.
If he were to actually take it back, the Emperor would surely kill him. Having no other choice, the chief eunuch had no choice but to put the imperial edict into the potted plant next to him.
While releasing it, he kept repeating, "I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to, God help me."
After saying that, he ran away as if fleeing, afraid of being seen.
The eunuchs who came to deliver the imperial decree said: Is it really okay to deceive ourselves like this?
Ruoshui was too lazy to deal with the imperial edict, and since no one dared to touch it when it was placed in a potted plant, it ended up just sitting there.
However, the news that Ruoshui refused to accept the imperial edict soon reached the emperor's ears.
Upon hearing the news, the emperor was so angry that he threw down the memorials.
Another imperial edict was issued, intending to throw Ruoshui directly into the imperial prison.
However, ideals are often far from reality. Throwing her into prison? As long as Ruoshui doesn't want to go, no one can stop her.
