Chapter 776 I Can't Bear It Anymore

Before Consort Bai could finish speaking, Chu Lingtian coldly said, "Since Consort Bai's status is so noble that it's inconvenient for her to apologize to the Goddess, then let's change our identities!"

After Chu Lingtian finished speaking, he turned to Zuo Lu and said, "Issue my decree: Consort Bai is arrogant and domineering, has disrespected the Empress, and is disrespectful to the Flower Goddess! Effective today, her title of Consort is hereby revoked!"

Demoted to the rank of Consort! Stripped of her power to assist in managing the six palaces! Confined to Jinhua Palace for one month to reflect on her actions! Copy the palace rules one hundred times as a warning to others!

Just moments before, Consort Bai's face was full of joy, but upon hearing Chu Lingtian's decree, her face turned ashen, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted!

The palace maid beside Consort Bai hurriedly supported her, crying, "Your Highness, Your Highness, wake up! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The Consort Bai has fainted! Please save her!"

Chu Lingtian looked at Zuo Lu, who understood and stepped forward to take Consort Bai's pulse. He then stood up and replied, "Your Majesty, Consort Bai only fainted due to anger and distress! She is not seriously injured!"

The palace maid beside Consort Bai pleaded with her, "Your Majesty, please forgive Consort Bai. She only offended the Flower Goddess because she cares about you too much..."

Li Liuyun curled his lip: "What a loyal lackey!"

"Guards! Drag this palace maid away and slap her twenty times! Bai has already been stripped of her title of Imperial Concubine! Yet you still keep calling her Imperial Concubine. This is blatant disobedience! Where do you place His Majesty's decree? I will be lenient because this is your first offense and you are thinking of your mistress!"

As soon as the Empress raised her hand, two matrons behind her stepped forward and pinned the palace maid next to Consort Bai to the ground.

The palace maid dared not struggle and could only beg for mercy: "Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, I only misspoke. Please forgive me this time. I will never dare to do it again. Please have mercy!"

Seeing this, one of the two old women kicked the palace maid in the back of the knee, and the palace maid immediately fell to her knees.

Another nanny stepped forward and slapped the palace maid across the face: "Both thunder and rain are the Emperor's grace! Her Majesty the Empress is the model of the harem and the mother of the nation! To us servants, rewards are rewards, and punishments are also rewards! If you dare to say another word, in addition to the slap from Her Majesty the Empress, you will also be punished for the crime of disrespect! Have you thought it through?"

Hearing the old woman's words, the palace maid had no choice but to say with a heavy heart, "This servant thanks Your Majesty for the reward and punishment!"

The Empress nodded: "Guards, take the Imperial Concubine—no, Consort Bai!—back to the palace and have a royal physician examine her! Make sure she doesn't develop any lingering health problems; it would be terrible if it affected her copying the palace rules!"

Chu Lingtian suppressed a laugh upon hearing the Empress's words. It seemed he had truly underestimated her. As expected of someone from a family of military generals, she was indeed eloquent, skilled in both literature and martial arts! Moreover, she was also an expert in tea ceremony.

Chu Lingtian agreed and nodded: "The Empress is right. Zuo Lu, you will handle this matter. Remember to find the best imperial physician to treat Consort Bai, and make sure she doesn't develop any lasting illness!"

Upon hearing the Empress and Emperor's words, Zuo Lu solemnly replied, "Your Majesty and Your Majesty, please rest assured, this servant will certainly obey Your Majesty's will and invite the best imperial physicians to treat Consort Bai! We will absolutely not allow Consort Bai to suffer from any hidden ailment that would affect her copying of the palace rules!"

The Empress nodded: "Very well, then I am relieved! Your Majesty! I am tired and need to return to the palace for a short rest, so please excuse me!"

After the Empress finished speaking, she left without waiting for Chu Lingtian's signal, leading the palace servants and matrons behind her, leaving only the two matrons who were carrying out the punishment to continue slapping him.

Chu Lingtian didn't care and nodded. He said to Nangong Li and Li Liuyun, "What happened today was my fault. I failed to restrain the Consort's words and actions in the past. The Consort is about to apologize to the two Flower Goddesses. The people from the Imperial Wardrobe are still in the palace, waiting for the two Flower Goddesses to take their measurements and make their clothes! You may leave now."

Nangong Li and Li Liuyun bowed slightly. Li Liuyun smiled and said, "Your Majesty is too kind. Your Majesty is busy with countless affairs of state and cannot possibly pay attention to everything! Moreover, we believe that after this battle, the Imperial Concubine, or rather, the White Concubine, will definitely repent and become a better person!"

The female official leading the way glanced at Li Liuyun and her lips twitched: I didn't realize that these two flower goddesses were such formidable characters. When they were arguing with the Imperial Concubine just now, seeing how scared she looked, I originally thought that this flower goddess was a timid little rabbit!

But now, seeing her speaking to His Majesty with such poise and confidence, without a trace of fear! There wasn't even a hint of trepidation in her eyes! It's clear that her timid demeanor just now was probably all an act!

The female official curtsied to Chu Lingtian: "Then this humble subject will take the two Flower Goddesses back to the palace first! This humble subject takes his leave."

Then, Nangong Li and Li Liuyun followed the female official to the palace where they were arranged, where, as expected, several palace servants from the Shangyi Bureau had been waiting for a long time.

Upon seeing Nangong Li and Li Liuyun enter, everyone quickly bowed and greeted, "Greetings to the two Flower Goddesses."

Li Liuyun raised his hand: "Dear relatives, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!"

The head palace servant stepped forward: "Two Flower Goddesses, I have been ordered to take your measurements and make your sacrificial robes for tomorrow! There are more than two Flower Goddesses, is it convenient for you to come now?"

Seeing Nangong Li frown, Li Liuyun smiled and said, "Sir, please take my measurements first. My sister doesn't like being touched by strangers. I will take her measurements later, and you can all record them!"

After Li Liuyun finished speaking, he took out a silver note from his sleeve and stuffed it into the hand of the leading palace servant: "I'm sorry to have troubled you all to wait for so long today. Please accept this small token of my appreciation! Consider it an invitation to tea!"

The head palace servant looked at the female official and returned the silver note: "It is our honor to be able to make two sets of clothes for the Flower Goddess!"

Li Liuyun returned the silver notes, saying, "It's just a small token of my appreciation; please don't refuse!"

The female official smiled and said, "Since it is a gift from the two flower goddesses, it is also a blessing for you all. I think there is no need to refuse!"

Upon hearing the female official's words, the head palace servant accepted the silver note and became even more respectful: "On behalf of all my colleagues, I thank the Flower Goddess for her gift! Flower Goddess, this way please, I will now take your measurements!"

Li Liuyun nodded, and at the palace servant's signal, raised his hand and turned around...

After Li Liuyun finished measuring, she smiled and looked at Nangong Li: "Sister, let me measure you."

Nangong Li nodded, and Li Liuyun took his measurements. The accompanying palace servants registered the measurements, and then the people from the Shangzi Bureau hurriedly left.

When the Empress returned to the palace, her accompanying matron poured her a cup of tea and slowly asked, "Your Majesty has always been indifferent to worldly affairs, so why did you help those two flower goddesses today?"

The Empress took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Firstly, because I saw from afar that one of the two people looked extremely similar to the divine physician who saved me and cured my poison that night!"

Secondly! I've swallowed my anger for so many years, and now I really can't take it anymore! Today is the perfect day to vent my frustrations!
