Knowledge in the Snow (4)

As soon as Su Zhaoyuan heard the sound, she knew who the visitor was, and immediately greeted her: "Concubines see Duanfei."

Xia Lanyue also followed to salute, but she could only continue to salute before Concubine Duan agreed to get up.

"Is this the Lan beauty who was once a favorite from time to time? She has been neglected for so long, and she still has this leisurely time to play here." Concubine Zheng Duan's tone was full of sarcasm.

"Lanmei is bored in the Nishang Pavilion these days, so my concubine took her out to relax. I didn't want to offend Concubine Duan, it's my concubine's fault." Su Zhaoyuan immediately admitted her mistake humbly.

Concubine Zheng Duan snorted coldly: "Let's relax? What a high-sounding excuse, isn't it that the emperor and the empress dowager will visit Xiafeng Garden today, and she wants to take this opportunity to meet the emperor and regain her favor."

Xia Lanyue couldn't help but cast a glance at Su Zhaoyuan, no wonder she insisted on pulling her to Xiafeng Garden today, it turned out that she still had such intentions in her heart.

"Lanmei has such a good sister who wants to help you regain the favor, but you know that in this harem, there has never been a precedent of falling out of favor and regaining favor, not to mention that you are a lowly maid who can be canonized Beauty has been a blessing for several lifetimes, and she dares to deceive the Sacred Heart!" Concubine Zheng Duan's reprimand pointed at Xia Lanyue: "I hate women in the harem most who are restless and deliberately invite favors, so I will punish twenty of them first. Mouth!"

Lu Hai, the eunuch next to Concubine Zheng Duan, stepped forward and slapped Xia Lanyue's cheek without showing any mercy. After three slaps, Xia Lanyue's right cheek was red and swollen, and the corner of her mouth Spilled traces of blood.

"Your Majesty, Lanmei didn't do anything wrong, how can you convince me by beating her like this." Su Zhaoyuan's voice turned cold immediately.

"You, a concubine who has long been out of favor, dare to talk to me like this, Mei Xiang, go and slap your mouth." Concubine Zheng Duan immediately ordered, Su Zhaoyuan was of low status and was not favored by the emperor, so she had no power to fight back against Concubine Zheng Duan , could only kneel down and take Mei Xiang's hard slap, his face was burning with pain.

At this moment in the silent Xiafeng Garden, crisp applause came one after another. Concubine Zheng Duan looked proudly at the two people who had been beaten into an extremely embarrassing situation. The beating was over within a moment. Both of them had red and swollen cheeks, and Xia Lanyue was cold. Looking at Concubine Zheng Duan coldly, she said with a smile: "Concubine Duan is following the example of Concubine Xin Hui who beat Jing Xiuyi a few years ago, but back then when Jing Xiuyi was in high favor, Concubine Xin Hui just sneered in front of her. So you punished her to kneel in front of the palace for three hours, but now, Concubine Duan, you are targeting two unfavored concubines, isn't it just an imitation."

Concubine Zheng Duan was immediately angry and was about to explode, but Su Zhaoyuan agreed: "If Concubine Duan wants to emulate Concubine Xinhui back then, she can go find Jiang Cairen and Zhang Jieyu who are now in favor and punish them A few mouths to prove your prestige in the harem."

Concubine Zheng Duan was furious, pointing at the two of them, she said angrily: "The empress has long neglected the harem. Concubine Xinhui has no right to assist the six palaces since she was neglected by the emperor. Now this palace is the most experienced person in the harem and has the eldest son of the emperor. , even if they are favored, I will still punish them. Today is just right, I will take you two low maids first!"

"Concubine Duan speaks loudly."

A few zhang away, the voice of majesty came from a moderate level, and a mighty group of people was walking towards this side. The leaders were the emperor and the empress dowager, and the person who said this was the current empress dowager. She is plump, her eyebrows are not angry but mighty, and the nobility and grace exuding from her body are incomparable. She is worthy of being the most beloved woman of the late emperor, the former concubine Wan Gui.
