royal princess

Chapter 209
Obviously, people who live in the so-called noble circle in this time and space have never felt ashamed.

Si Jin felt a little impatient. Firstly, it was because of Qu Zhousu's tricks behind the scenes. Since his family came to Beijing, although he had never won a real official position in the court, he had used many tricks behind the scenes. , It did cause some troubles to their family.Although Xiao Qi would not take the initiative to say these things, but Si Jin is not a fool, how could he not notice it at all.

There was a hint of sarcasm in the corner of her mouth, and the corners of Si Jin's eyes were raised slightly on purpose, and she looked down at Su Rui with an air of arrogance and arrogance, and said softly and tenderly, "I have nothing to say to you."

With such an arrogant posture and such an arrogant tone, Su Rui's face instantly darkened when she was exasperated by this side branch girl who was expelled from the Quzhou Su's family.Unable to suppress the anger in his heart for a while, he looked at Si Jin and said, "What does this mean? You and I come from the Su family, shouldn't it be mutual help?"

As soon as Su Rui said these words, she met Concubine Xi's sharp mocking eyes, and swallowed back the words immediately, strands of cold air shot up on the soles of her feet, and she couldn't help shivering.

"It's ridiculous to say this from the people of your Su family." Si Jin didn't intend to talk to Su Rui, "After you did that for Quzhou Su, how dare you treat me and my wife like that?" Bengong's family is bossy? Who gave you the rights and face? You, a little beauty, dare to contradict Bengong and behave rudely. It seems that you need to learn the rules. Aunt Jiang, please give me some pointers According to the palace rules of the Sumerians, it’s fine if you meet me today, but there’s no guarantee that you won’t be so disrespectful in front of empresses and concubines in the future.”

"……you……"

Si Jin didn't even give Su Rui a look from the corner of her eye, and walked away with her own people. Even Qiao Lingyi and Si Jin didn't answer a word.

Aunt Jiang looked at Qiao Lingyi and Su Rui with a smile, and first said to Qiao Lingyi: "Qiao Xiaoyi still wants to talk to the imperial concubine, right?"

Qiao Lingyi looked at the smiling Aunt Jiang with an uncertain expression. She knew that Aunt Jiang was the aunt in charge bestowed to Concubine Xi by her cousin.Hearing her words, it was clear that she was going to chase her away, and she glanced at Su Rui, with a smile on her face, "Yes, the imperial concubine is still waiting."

Su Rui watched in disbelief as Qiao Xiaoyi left her alone and left, her face was pale with a tinge of blue, and then she looked at Aunt Jiang full of defense and nervousness, how would she punish herself?

Aunt Jiang has lived in this palace like a fish in water for so many years, so she naturally knows the rules of living in this palace.The master wants to teach the Sumerians a lesson, but he can't be caught too much, lest he be labeled as a bully, but this is not difficult.

There are many ways to punish people, corporal punishment is the worst, but it is just to suffer some flesh and blood, but also to talk about right and wrong, why bother?

What she has here is to make life worse than death, and there are unspeakable ways.

Si Jin didn't pay attention to how Aunt Jiang "taught" Su Rui, even such a small matter can't be done well, so what's the use of this aunt in charge?Speaking of it, this was the first time that Aunt Jiang had accepted her test seriously after she entered the Heyi Hall. If she wanted to stay by her side and get a position, she had to have enough ability to convince her.

Qiao Lingyi returned to the imperial concubine with a bad expression, and Si Jin also slowly returned to the previous pavilion with a gentle smile on her face, but Qiao Lingyi, who had returned a step earlier, was already "overly frightened" Telling what happened before from another angle.

The concubines in the pavilion looked at Concubine Xi who had returned so leisurely, and looked at each other in blank dismay, for a moment they didn't know how to speak.

The queen glanced at the crowd, smiled and waved to Si Jin, "It's rare that you have been wandering around for so long today, so it's time to come in and rest your feet."

"It's still the empress who loves the concubine. The concubine chose the scene well, and the concubine liked it very much, so I walked around for a while." Si Jin obediently sat down beside the empress, thinking that Qiao Lingyi should leave Her feat is told again.

The queen actually did not expect that Concubine Xi would act in such a high-profile way today, which is quite different from her previous behavior.If Concubine Xi hadn't treated her respectfully and obediently as always, she would have thought that she had other ideas.

However, this is also good, Concubine Xi's temperament was too soft before.Now that you have a child, you can no longer be the same as before. People who are too soft-tempered, even if they are high-ranking, will not be able to hold down their heads. Gradually, no one will put you in their eyes, but you are nothing more than a waste.

Now Concubine Xi has figured it out for herself, knowing the truth that being a mother is strong, plus the fact that the emperor is not in the palace, presumably she has a sense of danger, which is why she has acted today.

It has to be said that the empress is very reliable in guessing people's psychology, otherwise she would not have some weight in Xiao Qi's heart, and she would not be defeated by the imperial concubine all these years.Although this kind of Concubine Xi made the Queen feel a little dangerous, but considering the current situation, as long as Concubine Xi is not a person who forgets her roots, she will not cross the river and tear down the bridge.

At this time, the queen handed the ladder to Concubine Xi, and Concubine Xi just walked down the stairs, and looked at the queen and said deliberately: "The Su Meiren bumped into the concubine, spoke inappropriately, and even offended the concubine, so the concubine asked the aunt in charge around me Teach her the rules, and ask the empress to forgive her."

The queen thought of several ways, but none of them were as shocking as Si Jin's straightforward words.Concubine Xi still has such a straight-forward temperament, the worry in the queen's heart is less, she looks at her with a smile, and seems not to care and said: "I remember that when I was in Mingxiu Palace, this Su Meiren I have violated the rules several times." Speaking of this, he looked at the imperial concubine, "During the final selection, if the imperial concubine hadn't insisted, perhaps she would not have been able to stay."

After hearing the queen's words, the noble concubine kept the same smile on her face, "The empress really likes to joke. Everyone who stays here has been carefully selected before they can stay. What's more, this palace remembers the relationship between Concubine Xi and Su Meiren. There are some family grievances." Because of this matter, the noble concubine had suffered in front of Xiao Qi, so she was very concerned about it.

When the queen and the concubine come and go, Concubine Xi becomes cannon fodder caught in the middle. When everyone thought that Concubine Xi would not refute the concubine, they heard Concubine Xi suddenly say: "The family grievances here, Isn’t the imperial concubine the clearest? Speaking of which, some people in the palace made a fuss about my family background, and it’s thanks to the imperial concubine who upheld justice and returned the innocence of the ministers and concubines.”

Si Jin slammed back the knife thrown by the imperial concubine again, and everyone in the pavilion was afraid to speak, only the queen's expression became softer, "Okay, it's just a little beauty. Speaking of which, Su The beauty is also from a rich family, and she broke the rules several times, which shows that she is spoiled at home. Since Su Meiren is very popular with the noble concubine, then the task of teaching her is entrusted to the noble concubine. In this palace, I hope that Everyone remembers that the palace has palace rules. Other things are easy to talk about, but if you violate the palace rules, don't blame the palace's subordinates for being ruthless."

"Yes." Everyone got up and listened to the training, all respectful.

"I'm tired, so I'll go back first. You sisters had a great time."

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother."

The empress left first, and Si Jin also said goodbye, thanking the noble concubine for her hospitality, and just... walked away with her own people.

From a distance, everyone stared at the back of Concubine Xi, the luster of "Cuiyun Qiu" shone enviably and dazzlingly in the sunlight.Just like Concubine Xi's way of acting today, it is so sharp that people dare not look directly at it.

"Concubine Xi, it's really surprising." Wang Jingyun said in a low voice. Ever since she entered the palace, she has heard all kinds of rumors about Concubine Xi, but almost everyone said that Concubine Xi has a very soft temper. .But today's Concubine Xi...is it true that after having the eldest prince, her true nature has been exposed?
If this is the case, does the emperor still like Concubine Xi like this?
"It's really surprising." Li Yunxiu followed up, slowly withdrawing her eyes, and then added, "A woman with confidence is naturally different."

Wang Jingyun glanced at Li Yunxiu, so the two of them had the same idea, such a concubine Xi is good, so they can have a chance to take a step forward.

Didn't the concubine back then have to be like this?Once stepped down by the little-known Concubine Xi, even though she still bears the name of a noble concubine, her favor has long since disappeared. Fortunately, there is still a princess by her side.Then, Concubine Xi walks the path of a noble concubine, the next person to step on Concubine Xi...

Perhaps, it's time to pay a serious visit to Fenghuan Palace.

Wang Jingyun lowered her head slowly, and glanced at Qiao Lingyi's direction inadvertently, and saw her sitting there with a flat face, as if the bustling noise had nothing to do with her.

It seemed that Qiao Lingyi was becoming more and more calm.

The empress can afford a Concubine Xi, so now that Concubine Xi is becoming more and more popular, is it too much to lift up another Concubine Xi to be equal to Concubine Xi?
This candidate must not be snatched away by others.

After the flower banquet, if there were any excitement in the palace, there were really two things.

The first thing is the punishment of the Sumerians. If you say that Aunt Jiang is really an interesting person, she doesn’t move her hands and doesn’t say anything, and she will deal with it in a civilized way, that is, let the Sumerians make the palace rules about low-ranking concubines meeting high-ranking concubines. Make up lessons for that section.

Punishment to recite one hundred times.

Didn't remember?
Then you read it according to the scriptures first, and memorize it when you memorize it. It’s only a hundred times. This punishment is really nothing.

However, it also takes time to recite according to memory.Aunt Jiang was sympathetic to the Sumerians who had never suffered, and she was afraid of getting thirsty after reading too much, so she specially asked a little girl to serve tea.

This doesn't look like being punished, it's clearly just a formality.
