Delicate green plum dressed as the little emperor of green tea

Chapter 374 Punishment
Lu Zhan was dressed in a snow-colored robe, his appearance was cold, and his black pupils were rolling with displeasure.

"Your Majesty?" Empress Dowager Qi was taken aback, and immediately asked Zhen Baozhu, "Are you teasing Aijia?"

If the person behind the curtain was the emperor, Zhen Baozhu didn't have to act panicked, so that even she almost thought that Zhen Baozhu really stole someone.

Zhen Baozhu was very innocent about this, "How can my concubine dare to tease the Queen Mother?"

"The emperor just took a rest, and the concubine is just afraid that the concubine Qi will disturb the emperor."

"he"

Baozhu lowered her head and pretended to be shy, "The emperor said that he could only sleep in my place, and he was afraid that he would come to my place too much, so it spread, and some people would say that I am a troublesome beauty and treat me badly. So I just sneaked here.”

"Concubine Qi seems to have misunderstood, did the Queen Mother also misunderstand like Concubine Qi?"

Tears welled up in her eyes, "Queen Mother, you also said that you watched me grow up, and you don't believe me, are you going to put me to death?"

Zhen Baozhu's eyes were red, and she was about to cry.

Empress Dowager Qi was very annoyed, but what Zhen Baozhu did was not wrong at all, but she was abrupt today, I'm afraid her niece was tricked by someone.

"Of course not, Ai's family just came to visit you." Empress Dowager Qi met Lu Zhan's questioning eyes, so she could only explain in this way.

Zhen Baozhu didn't intend to confront the Empress Dowager Qi, so he just said: "The Empress Dowager has a heart."

"It's just that the queen mother watched me grow up. She came here late at night because she was afraid that I would not be used to living in the palace. When she came to visit me, Concubine Qi and I never got along. The concubine is taking advantage of the Queen Mother's trust in her, and intentionally lured the Queen Mother over, I'm afraid she has bad intentions."

Empress Dowager Qi wanted to protect Qi Ru, so she only said: "Concubine Qi was dragged here by Ai's family."

"Really?" Zhen Baozhu looked at Concubine Qi and raised her eyebrows provocatively, as if she was demonstrating.

Concubine Qi is not a person who can hold her breath. Being provoked by her like this, and thinking that she was beaten to the ground by Lu Zhan just now, like a dog, she was instantly annoyed.

"Of course not. You and I are at odds with each other. How could I come to visit you?" Concubine Qi still had a little luck in her heart, and she looked at Lu Zhan expectantly, "Your Majesty, believe me, there must be someone in Zhen Baozhu, and she must have betrayed her." you."

"Pei Changzai can testify."

Qi Ru felt that there must be something wrong with it.

Maybe it's because the emperor came over today, so the adulterer didn't come over.

"The concubine begged the emperor to call Pei Changzai over to confront Zhen Baozhu."

idiot!

Empress Dowager Qi was also a little angry, she had already thought up a speech for Qi Ru, even if it was a bit reluctant, but Lu Zhan would not care about Qi Ru just because of her face.

But who would have thought that Qi Ru would come up to seek death by herself.

"Concubine Qi is a little sleepy and started talking nonsense." Empress Dowager Qi said: "The Ai family will lure her back."

"Mother," Lu Zhan strode out.

"Concubine Qi is sleepy, not out of her mind. If Concubine Qi slanders Concubine Xian like this today, if she doesn't prove it, then tomorrow, rumors about Concubine Xian will spread to the entire palace."

"Where will Concubine Xian go to find someone to reason with?"

"Come on, it is said that Pei is always here."

After a while, Pei Wan came over.

Pei Wan was a little terrified, and looked at the empress dowager and the emperor who were about to fight their swords, very confused.

Concubine Qi rushed forward immediately, "Pei Changzai, tell the emperor whether Zhen Baozhu is having an affair with another man, whether she has betrayed the emperor."

Pei Wan was dumbfounded.

"Concubine Qi, are you talking nonsense? The relationship between Xianfei and the emperor has always been very good. Anyone in this palace may be unable to bear the loneliness and do some bad things, but Xianfei will never."

"The relationship between the emperor and the concubine Xian is obvious to all, do you think so because of hallucinations?"

"No, it's impossible!" Qi Ru looked at Pei Wan excitedly, "Obviously you told me earlier that Zhen Baozhu was pregnant with someone else's child, and you lied to me."

Pei Wan took two steps back in fright, "What are you talking about, Concubine Qi? When did I tell you that Concubine Xian is pregnant?"

"That is to say, I accidentally told Concubine Qi two days ago that Concubine Xian is gaining weight again. People who don't know think that Concubine Xian is pregnant. Did Concubine Qi misunderstand?"

"But even if Concubine Qi misunderstands that Concubine Xian is pregnant, shouldn't she misunderstand that the child is not the emperor's?"

"Concubine Qi really hates Concubine Xian to the bottom of her heart, and actually ruined Concubine Xian's reputation like this."

Zhen Baozhu also had hazy eyes, "I know Concubine Qi can't understand me, and she used to jump into the water by herself in order to frame me."

"But I don't care about it. After all, who made Concubine Qi the queen mother's niece and the emperor's cousin."

"However, this time, Concubine Qi is not only framing me, but also dragging the emperor into this flood."

"It's okay for me to be wronged by myself, but I just can't watch brother Zhan being wronged. Obviously everyone is fine, but you want to make a green hat for brother Zhan. You really want to punish him."

Qi Ru suddenly turned her head and stared at Zhen Baozhu, "You are all in the same group."

"Your majesty, the concubine was framed by others, the concubine that Zhen Baozhu and Pei Changzai framed. You trust the concubine."

Zhen Baozhu hid behind Lu Zhan as if frightened. Lu Zhan held Zhen Baozhu's hand tightly and pursed his thin lips slightly.

"Concubine Qi, it was you who deliberately picked quarrels and made troubles first, and brought the queen mother here in the middle of the night to make trouble, and now you are slandering Concubine Xian and Pei Chang to frame you? Isn't it clear who framed you?"

"Do you think everyone is blind?"

There was no warmth in his eyes, only disgust.

Concubine Qi flinched suddenly, and said weakly, "They really framed me, cousin, trust me."

"I only believe the facts I see." Lu Zhan's attitude has always been so clear-cut, "You disrespect me and the virtuous concubine first, frame the virtuous concubine behind, and pass on my orders,"

Lu Zhan glanced at the queen mother, "Although your intentions are sinister, but for the sake of the mother's face, I spare your life and lose your position. From now on, you can just be an ordinary palace man and accompany the mother's filial piety. "

The queen mother hesitated to speak.

What is the difference between such a punishment and being placed in the cold palace?

"Ah Ru is Ai's niece, Cheng Enhou's younger sister, the emperor"

Meeting Qi Ru's eyes asking for help, the Empress Dowager Qi couldn't hold back and spoke for her niece.

Lu Zhan then said: "Well, I will give my mother the son, and I will keep the position she promised."

How is this different from ordinary court ladies?
Qi Ru looked at Lu Zhan resentfully, but Lu Zhan never looked at her at all.

"Aunt." Qi Ru looked at Queen Mother Qi again.

However, the Empress Dowager Qi was not so thick-skinned to intercede with her again.

With some affection, it is not so easy to use again.

Can you say that Lu Zhan didn't give the Empress Dowager face?he gave.

The court lady and the promise are not the same after all.

But it was unacceptable to Qi Ru who was conferred the title of concubine just a year after entering the palace.

What's more, this relegation will make it even more difficult to upgrade.
