Emperor side: Supreme Empress

"No, I don't want it!" The maid shook her head violently when she heard this, and crawled to Concubine Xiao's feet while kneeling.She tightly grasped Concubine Xiao's feet, and made an inarticulate begging sound. "Your Majesty, you...you...you must help the servant! The servant does not want to eat with the old man. The servant does not want it!"

"Oh? So it's not good for the food?" Leng Hanxue raised her eyebrows and said to herself in doubt. "I originally thought it was an extrajudicial favor! If you think this punishment is too cruel and you don't want it, I can change it to another punishment." A meaningful smile rose from the corner of her lips, It is coquettish and charming, but hides a deeper thought in it.

However, all of this was ignored by the flustered maid.When Leng Hanxue really wanted to spare her once, she let go of Concubine Xiao's feet and kowtowed to Leng Hanxue again. "I beg the empress to be kind, I beg the empress to be merciful! The slaves are willing to work for the empress to repay the empress' kindness."

"That's enough, don't knock anymore!" Leng Hanxue said coolly. "Since you don't want to eat with your old father-in-law, then I will give you corporal punishment!"

Before she and Concubine Xiao came to their senses, Leng Hanxue immediately shouted loudly: "Come here, pull this lowly servant girl down and give her a foot of red."

Hearing this, the faces of Concubine Xiao and that maid became extremely pale.

Yizhanghong is the cruelest punishment in the harem, usually used to punish concubines who made mistakes.The horror of the tower does not lie in beating people to death, but in beating them so many times that their bones are broken and their flesh is bloody.After the punishment, the concubines will be thrown into the cold palace because of their disabilities, and the palace servants will be thrown out of the palace gate, leaving them to fend for themselves.

The two eunuchs in front of her came in from the door and were about to escort the maid away, Concubine Xiao knew that she couldn't bear it any longer at this time. "Wait! Empress, she is a concubine's servant, and even if she wants to be disciplined, she must be disciplined by the concubine herself. Don't bother you, empress!"

She thought that as long as she said that, Leng Hanxue would not dare to insist on seeing her again.But she didn't want to, Leng Hanxue didn't care at all whether she would offend Concubine Xiao today.If people don't offend her, she won't offend him. If someone offends her, she will pay back ten times more.Since it was the court lady who offended her today, don't blame her for being merciless.This is her principle, it will not change, and she has never thought of changing it. "What a joke! This is no longer Concubine Xiao's business alone! Unless Concubine Xiao thinks that I have no right to dispose of the lowly servant girls who have committed crimes below, then it will be different!"

Concubine Xiao this time, if she said it was her own business, it would be admitting that she thought that Leng Hanxue had no right to deal with the lowly servant girls who committed crimes below her.Similarly, Concubine Xiao also committed the following crimes.But if she said that it was not her own business, then she was letting Leng Hanxue deal with her maid.

She glanced at the palace maid, her eyes filled with various emotions.Now that she, the master, can't protect her anymore!But she can guarantee that if Leng Hanxue moved her people today, she will make Leng Hanxue's people suffer a thousand times more pain than her maid in the future.

"Concubine Xiao, you have to think clearly. Even if this matter goes to the side of the Empress Dowager, I am still on the sidelines. On the contrary, you, I wonder if it will change your image in the eyes of the Empress Dowager? Do you think it's worth it to lose an image that you've worked so hard for for so many years because of this lowly servant girl?"
