Chapter 165
He was furious and said: "I thought that after banning your feet for a year, your temperament would be calmer. I didn't expect you to be so willful and arrogant. Not only did you disrespect the Queen Mother's will, but you dared to slander the Queen Mother behind your back. It is simply lawless."

This reprimand is not without severity.

When Concubine Hui heard this, her face turned pale with fright.

The reason why she pretended to be sick and didn't come to congratulate Linglong was because she felt that everyone was a noble concubine and was on an equal footing, so why should she condescend to go to Chengqian Palace.

However, she didn't expect that it was the Queen Mother's order to ask the concubines of the sixth palace to congratulate Concubine Li. She deliberately pretended to be sick, which means she refused to obey the order, let alone scold the Queen Mother as an old woman. Even the emperor dared not Scolding the Queen Mother, she is undoubtedly plucking the tiger's mouth by doing so.

Thinking of this, Concubine Hui became even more frightened, her body was trembling, her voice trembling: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... This concubine knew her mistake, this concubine really knew her mistake... This concubine just said something indiscriminately for a while, you For the sake of my aunt and the eldest princess, let me spare my concubine."

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "Speaking unscrupulously? You can call Ai's family an old woman if you don't choose your words. If you have a lot of tongue, wouldn't you want to call Ai's old man dead?" Not dying is a thief, it seems that the Ai family has lived too long and is also disgusting!"

Even saying the words 'old and not dead is a thief', it can be seen that the Queen Mother is really angry.

All the people present, including the emperor, knelt down: "Queen Mother/Queen Dowager, calm down and take care of your phoenix body!"

The Empress Dowager looked at Concubine Hui coldly: "The emperor ordered you to be concubine, and the Ai family didn't want to agree, but seeing that you have been wronged for a year, the emperor begged again and again, so he reluctantly agreed to the imperial concubine. I didn't expect you to be so arrogant and presumptuous, how can you still look like a noble concubine?"

When Concubine Hui heard this, she didn't know that the Empress Dowager wanted to withdraw her title of imperial concubine, so she panicked even more.

She hurriedly said: "The concubine is guilty, the concubine is guilty, the emperor's imperial decree has been issued, and the concubine is enshrined as a noble concubine. There is no joke..."

The Empress Dowager interrupted her coldly: "The emperor is not a joke, but the will of the Ai family is also not to be disobeyed. The Ai family has already ordered the concubines of the sixth palace to worship and congratulate the noble concubine Li, but you resisted the order and committed a serious crime. Why do you still have the qualifications to become a noble concubine?"

She turned her eyes and looked at the emperor: "Emperor, what do you mean?"

Concubine Hui blatantly called the queen mother an old woman, unless the emperor wanted people to criticize him for being unfilial, how could he protect her?

The emperor said sternly: "The crime of disobedience to Yi's decree is unforgivable. Naturally, he is not worthy of the imperial concubine. His son immediately sent an order to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Rites to cancel the etiquette of conferring imperial concubine."

After hearing this, Linglong smiled gloatingly at the corner of her mouth.

As if being struck by lightning, Concubine Hui looked at the emperor weepingly: "Cousin of the emperor, this concubine has made a mistake. For my aunt's sake, please forgive this concubine once."

The emperor sneered and said, "It's a shame that you have the face to mention your aunt. It's a shame to have a niece like you!"

He stood with his hands behind his back, turned his head and said, "Li Yu!"

Li Yu is the latest chief eunuch promoted by the emperor. The previous Sun Bin was involved in rumors in the harem and had already been demoted to an ordinary eunuch.

Li Yu hurriedly said: "The servant is here!"

The emperor said: "The decree was passed on to the Sixth Palace. Anshi resisted the decree and did not obey it. He disrespected the Queen Mother. He will be removed from the position of noble concubine. From now on, he will close the door and think about his mistakes. Without my decree, he is not allowed to step out of the palace gate."
