Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 708 Don't talk about female virtue
"After entering the palace today, the courtiers have gained insight. It turns out that there is a foxy girl hidden in the palace!" Zhao Xiwei's eyes fell on the table. There were gem-like grapes in the glazed fruit plate, and another one. Bamboo food box, filled with dried fruit preserves.

"Oh? How do you say that?"

"You just saw that Yang Zhaoyi was sneering at the courtier's daughter. Maybe she has disliked the courtier's daughter for a long time, or there is some girl in the family who wants to be stuffed into the East Palace! Empress Dowager, you say, Does this count as a vixen?"

She took the time to talk to the Queen Mother, and changed the positions of candied fruit and grapes.

The glazed fruit plate was placed on her side, and the bamboo food box was placed on the Queen Mother's side.

If anything happens, she can use this fruit plate to defend herself...

The Queen Mother's attention was all on her "humeizi", so she didn't notice this little trick.

"This..." The queen mother narrowed her eyes, and it took a lot of effort to hold back her anger.

Then Yang Zhaoyi's face was so frightened that his expression changed a long time ago. If it wasn't for the person hanging, he might have been paralyzed a long time ago: "The empress dowager, please forgive me, I don't dare to have such thoughts. There is no connection, how dare you have such thoughts! I swear, if you dare to have any distracting thoughts, let me, let me be smashed into pieces!"

"Okay, okay, it scares her!" The queen mother raised her hand and said with a smile: "The Ai family knows you are a good person, Zhao Xiwei, look, why don't you just let her go?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was frightened again.

When did the Queen Mother talk to people so thoughtfully?
Except for the only biological Princess Yiyang, there is no second one!

However, Zhao Xiwei has no self-consciousness of being "loved". Instead, he continues to make demands: "How can that be done? She dares to play tricks on Hu Meizi in front of you, so there is no guarantee that she will not do more outrageous things behind her back!"

Want to play tricks on her?
Then she will follow suit and use the divorce plan!
She and Gu Yuci didn't have any entanglement of interests at all, the worst would be to break up, anyway, the two of them also disliked each other.

As for the queen mother and this Yang Zhaoyi, maybe it will happen.

In this palace, apart from Pei Cairen and Concubine Zhao Shu, the other concubines are more or less involved with the Queen Mother.

After all, the emperor was indifferent to the Six Palaces, and the only person the concubines wanted to please was the queen mother.

Sure enough, there was a cloud of blackness between the Empress Dowager's eyebrows, she stared at her for a long time, and then said solemnly: "Then tell me, what do you want to do with it?"

Zhao Xi pursed his lips slightly and smiled, but before he could speak, someone got ahead of him.

"Return to the Empress Dowager's words!" Concubine Shu was the first to be let down, and the palace maid knelt on the ground, about to rub the strangle marks on her wrist.

Concubine Shu couldn't care less about these things, she waved her hand to dismiss the maid, and bowed her head to the Queen Mother: "Yang Zhaoyi's words and deeds are a bit reckless, but her heart is not bad. I think that this matter should punish her to think about it behind closed doors!"

Zhao Xi was taken aback for a moment, and glanced at Concubine Shu.

She wanted to punish Yang Zhaoyi, but she just wanted to grab a scapegoat and disgust the Queen Mother. Who told this idiot to provoke her first?

But she never expected that Concubine Shu would appear to plead for mercy.

What is this?

The Queen Mother was also surprised.

Even Yang Zhaoyi herself showed an expression of disbelief.

Several eyes fell on Concubine Shu's face, full of inquiry and puzzlement.

However, Concubine Shu just watched her eyes, nose, nose, and heart, only looking at the one-inch carpet under her feet, as if there was nothing unusual about it.

Zhao Xiwei looked at the reactions of several people, but couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.

But one thing she was sure of was that Yang Zhaoyi was not Concubine Shu's.

The Queen Mother's eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly laughed: "Since Concubine Shu has pleaded for mercy, Ai's family can't afford to lose face, Zhao Xiwei, what do you say? This is your aunt, you can't make her feel ashamed, right?" ?”

Zhao Xiwei made a haha, and chose to send a personal favor along the way: "Since Concubine Shu has come forward, the minister must give this face. But... for a woman like Yang Zhaoyi who cherishes her reputation, how can she just think about her mistakes behind closed doors? Why don't you ask her to copy books again!"

"Oh? Copying books?" The Queen Mother raised her eyelids, feeling that things were not that simple.

"Yes!" Zhao Xiwei nodded earnestly, "I think the four books "Women's Rules", "Women's Precepts", "Women's Training" and "Women's Virtues" are the most suitable for Yang Zhaoyi, especially "Women's Virtue". There is no problem in copying it eight hundred times! Yang Zhaoyi, are you right?"

No matter how stupid Yang Zhaoyi was, she could tell that this was trying to squeeze her out, but she didn't dare to say no more, she just admitted that she was unlucky with tears in her eyes: "Concubine, thank you Queen Mother for your kindness."

"Okay!" The queen mother was the one who swallowed her teeth the most. Now when she looked at the group of hanging women, it was like watching a joke carefully arranged by herself: "Go down! Aijia looked at it." Just upset!"

"Yes!" The servants got the order and hurriedly untied the concubines.

Hanging on the beams for several hours, when it landed on the ground, some of them were exhausted and almost tripped. The queen mother picked up the wine glass and threw it over: "A bunch of trash!"

The wine splashed and the glass shattered.

Violent murderous aura struck, and the snakes in the pool seemed to be summoned, surging in groups.

"The Queen Mother, please forgive me!"

All the concubines have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and they have long been familiar with her cruelty, but after experiencing it personally today, they have a deeper understanding.

At this time, the rest of the life after the catastrophe was still terrified, and the short words alone frightened them until their knees softened, and they fell to the ground in unison. I can only hold back.

Zhao Xiwei pretended to be eating grapes, and moved the glass fruit plate to his bosom again.

The Empress Dowager looked at the crowd for a long time, then said with a half-smile: "Today I let you stay with Ai's family for such a long time, it is really tiring for you, go back to the warehouse and get a reward yourself!"

This was a good thing, but none of them could laugh anymore, they just responded tremblingly: "As a harem woman, it is my duty to serve the Empress Dowager, I dare not, dare not covet any reward."

A group of people were waiting to kneel at the side, and there were only three and a half people left in the huge hall who could still stand upright.

Zhao Xiwei, Liu Feifei, Concubine Shu, and the remaining half are Gu Yuci hanging from the beam.

Because of Yang Zhaoyi's little incident, Zhao Xiwei paid more attention to Concubine Shu, only to realize that, like him, she also chose the position on the left.

This is very intriguing...

She chose this position because she knew the formation of the hidden guards.

What about Concubine Shu?

What do you know?
The hall was so quiet that breathing could be heard, and the Empress Dowager's face became more and more gloomy.

Is this the end?

impossible!
She suddenly stood up from the throne, shook her sleeves and raised her arms: "Gu Yuci, you brought a sharp weapon into the palace with the intention of assassinating Ai's family. All the concubines in the harem can prove it. Do you admit to this crime or not?" Paused, it seemed a bit unbearable, "If you admit it, the Ai family is for the sake of the Gu family, and the past will be forgotten!"
