After rebirth, His Highness Xinshu was pampered by me.

Chapter 376 If You Can't Crush Them, Leave Them Alive

But how about, Eunuch Yang thinks Concubine Wu De is still a bit smart?

Her cleverness lay in that she reported the eldest prince's affairs to the emperor before Queen Li could react.

Isn't it the emperor who has more legitimate rights and authority to teach and reprimand the eldest prince than Queen Li?
As long as the emperor punished the eldest prince before Empress Li, then when Empress Li remembered it and wanted to use it as an excuse to deal with the eldest prince, she would not be able to do anything without the emperor's permission.

More importantly, Concubine Wu De felt that the emperor would not really punish the eldest prince for this matter.

Of course, in Concubine Wu De's heart, she definitely didn't like the eldest prince being around a palace maid all day long.

There were many times in these years when Concubine Wu De even hated her so much that she wanted to secretly take Jinse away, but she was worried about something and never dared to do it...

Ever since she found out that this incident was also related to Jinse, Concubine Wu De felt helpless towards her own son and was very annoyed with Jinse.

But seeing how the eldest prince had caused so much trouble, Concubine Wu De thought about it carefully and felt that perhaps because this incident was related to Jinse, she didn't need to worry about what the eldest prince did...

Concubine Wu De could see this truth, and Eunuch Yang could naturally see it as well.

As expected, after hearing what Eunuch Yang said, the emperor just frowned and ordered: "Send someone to Deqing Palace to convey my oral order and tell the boss that someone will handle the affairs in the palace. Let him, um, be confined to his house for a few days and let him return home to reflect on himself!"

Eunuch Yang said in his heart, "As expected," but did not show it on his face. He replied respectfully, "Yes", then turned around and sent Xiao Linzi to Deqing Palace to pass on the message.

Then Eunuch Yang asked carefully: "What about the twelfth prince... Does the emperor want to see him now?"

The twelfth prince ran back and forth to the Emperor Zhao Palace several times, and Eunuch Yang couldn't bear to watch...

The emperor pondered for a moment and nodded.

Eunuch Yang immediately said: "Well, then I will go and invite the twelfth prince..."

Soon, the twelfth prince was brought to the Emperor Zhao Palace. As soon as he entered the palace and saw the emperor in person, he knelt down without saying a word...

Seeing the twelfth prince like this, the emperor couldn't help but narrow his eyes and looked at the twelfth prince in deep thought.

And when the emperor summoned the twelfth prince...

In Fengzhao Palace, Queen Li was leaning on the soft seat with a tired look on her face, supporting her head with her hands, and her face showed that she was in a bad mood.

The palace maids serving in the hall stood guard carefully, not daring to breathe loudly.

Until a burst of hurried footsteps were heard outside the palace door. When I calmed down, I saw Shuixiu hurriedly entering the palace.

Queen Li looked up when she heard the noise.

Shuixiu had already walked up to Queen Li in small steps.

She glanced at the Queen, waved her hand to let the serving maids go away, and then said softly: "Your Majesty, the matter has been handled properly. They didn't dare to involve our Fengzhao Palace."

Queen Li hummed. Although she was still unhappy, her tense expression eased a little.

After a long silence, Queen Li said in a cold voice: "That girl is really lucky..." This good luck in times of trouble really made Queen Li jealous and angry.

She was just a little palace maid, and she couldn't kill the other person no matter how many times she tried. This was definitely a provocation to her status as the mistress of the harem.

Shuixiu glanced at Queen Li carefully and said hurriedly: "It's because Your Majesty was too lazy to care about her that she was able to save her life. Why should Your Majesty care? And..."

Shuixiu paused and continued, "If it were me, I would say it's hard to say whether she has a good fate or not. Your Majesty doesn't even bother to know what methods those people used, but she hasn't woken up since she was taken back, which shows that she has suffered a lot at the hands of those people."

Who can say for sure whether one can recover after suffering so much?
After hearing this, Queen Li's mood immediately improved a lot.

Well, since I can't crush her to death in a short time, I'll take it slow and make her suffer a few times.

Shuixiu looked at Empress Li's expression and seemed to understand what she meant. After thinking for a while, she asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want me to secretly send a message to the Imperial Hospital? Over there..."

It was said that the eldest prince had called someone from the Imperial Hospital to examine that person. If she asked someone from the Imperial Hospital to do something about it...

Even if I can't kill that person, I think I can at least make her suffer even more.

This suggestion obviously met Queen Li's thoughts. After a brief thought, Queen Li nodded and said, "Have someone do it quickly and don't reveal any clues."

The people in Di Zhao Palace must have known about Jinse's affairs.

Although Queen Li hated her very much, she would not be so rash as to let the people in Di Zhao Palace catch her in any way.

Speaking of the handle, Queen Li seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked Shuixiu: "By the way, the eldest prince is still making trouble in the harem now?"

In order to investigate Jinse's affairs, the eldest prince has been jumping up and down in the harem these past two days...

Queen Li didn't care much about the eldest prince now, but she definitely disliked him. Besides, she already hated Concubine Wu De, so it was a good thing for her to take the opportunity to teach Concubine Wu De and her son a lesson.

Shuixiu shook her head helplessly: "I just got the news that the eldest prince has just been sent out of the palace by the people from Dizhao Palace."

Queen Li glanced at Shuixiu and frowned.

Shuixiu thought for a while and then continued, "I heard that earlier today, the chief eunuch serving Concubine Wu De hurried to the Di Zhao Palace. After that, someone from the Di Zhao Palace went to the De Qing Palace to convey the emperor's oral order, and the eldest prince was sent back to Prince Ze's Mansion and confined to his house."

"De Fei? Humph!"

The eldest prince had been making trouble in the harem for so long, but he was just locked up in his own palace?
What kind of punishment is this?
Queen Li snorted coldly: "Defei used all her cleverness on the eldest prince. It's a pity for the eldest prince, he is a reckless person!"

So what if Concubine Wu De gave birth to a prince? So what if she raised the prince? So what if she had all the cleverness to protect the prince?
With the eldest prince's temperament and abilities, his chances of becoming Prince Ze are almost over in this life!

No matter how much more, the mother and son don't have to worry about it.

Shuixiu smiled and agreed, "Your Majesty is right. If I were to say, I think our Highness is more capable. I heard that Your Highness has been doing a great job in the court recently. Even the Emperor praises him!"

Upon hearing this, Queen Li slightly raised the corners of her mouth, seeming to be quite satisfied with it.

But the next moment, Queen Li seemed to remember something and her brows suddenly gloomy again.
