Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 36 Punishment
Tweety's eyes were tightly closed, and two teardrops were looming in the corners of her eyes.

She shouted loudly: "Enough! I did all of this, and it has nothing to do with him!"

The Queen Mother couldn't help covering her ears, with an impatient expression on her face, Madam Chen felt bad, and immediately pointed at Tweety and said, "Bold Tweety, how dare you roar at the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and kneel down quickly !"

Cui'er acted as if she had never heard her words, she just turned her head, looked at Li Chenxiu with a sad smile on her face, and said, "Don't cover it up for me again, Brother Li, you are an imperial physician with superb medical skills, why bother to do it for me?" Do yourself a favor like this?"

Everyone was puzzled why Cui'er said these words, and Li Chenxiu couldn't help but stare at her.

But Cui'er knelt down in front of Shang Kelan with a "plop", and said sadly, "Concubine Chen, you guessed right, it is indeed Concubine Ning who was murdered by the servant."

Concubine Ning tightly grasped the champagne, her face stopped crying, she looked at Cui'er in a daze, and said in disbelief: "Tui'er...it's really you?"

Immediately, she hated iron for being weak and said to Cui'er: "I treat you well, why did you frame me like this?"

Cui'er cried: "Your Majesty, my servant ate something wrong that day, and my stomach ached unceasingly. Brother Li felt sorry for my servant, so he wrote a prescription containing poppy shells for my servant, but my servant was so clumsy that I accidentally drank it by myself. The medicine and your anti-fetal medicine were given wrongly, and it just so happened that you ate another piece of pastry sent by the concubine Chen."

"My servant is afraid that you will find out about this matter, and I will lose the chance to live with Brother Li in the future, so I put the remaining poppy shells on Yunzhi Cake, and put the blame on Concubine Chen..."

From this point of view, Tweety did it unintentionally.

Facing her miserable cry, Shang Kelan remained unmoved.

She looked down at Cui'er from a high position, her beautiful peach-blossom eyes were clearly smiling, but there was a penetrating chill.

Cui'er swallowed her saliva in fear, trembling all over in fear, it was not pretending, but the concubine Chen in front of her gave her a sense of death-like threat.

The queen mother did not expect that the murder of the dragon's heir was a farce caused by a little palace maid, and she immediately rubbed her brows with a headache.

The empress hurriedly got up and rubbed her shoulders, persuading her: "Don't be angry, empress mother, should you inform your majesty about this matter and let him handle it?"

When the queen mother heard the words, she immediately snorted coldly, looked up at the people in the hall and said, "Since Concubine Chen has been the biggest victim from the beginning to the end, I will leave it to Concubine Chen to decide on the punishment of Cui'er!"

Saying so, the queen mother waved her hand, and said with an ugly face: "Mother Chen, help Ai's family back to the palace to rest for a while, Ai's family has another headache!"

Chen Momo didn't dare to neglect her, and quickly responded, "Your servant obeys!"

Afterwards, the Empress Dowager let go of the Empress's hand, allowing Nanny Chen to help her into the bedroom.

As soon as the Empress Dowager left, all the concubines stood up and saluted quickly: "The concubines respectfully send off the Empress Dowager!"

After the empress dowager left, the empress sat back in her original seat, and said gently to Shang Kelan: "Concubine Chen, you are the one who has been wronged in this matter, since the empress mother has already spoken, I will let you deal with Cui'er, my palace." I'm here to testify to you."

Shang Kelan's expression didn't change, she quietly bowed her knees to the queen and said: "Then this concubine will thank the queen."

Afterwards, she looked at Cui'er again and said, "Since you have a deep relationship with Doctor Li, and everything is just a mistake you made in a moment of confusion, then I will let you go, but the death penalty is inevitable, and the death penalty cannot be escaped." , since you have violated the palace rules, you will go to Xinzhekuli to work for ten years on your own, deducting all the monthly money, as a warning to others!"

In an instant, everyone in the hall couldn't help being stunned after hearing the punishment!

Even Concubine Ning was puzzled, did Concubine Chen let Tweet go so easily?

Concubine Hua, who had been watching the excitement for a long time, couldn't help looking at Concubine Chen in amazement and said, "Sister Concubine Chen, you let Cui'er go so easily? What about Imperial Physician Li? What will you do?"

Shang Kelan looked at Imperial Physician Li, and her words were no longer as sharp as when she confronted him before. After she thought about it carefully, she said: "Emperor Li didn't report what he knew, and the concubine Ning who was almost hurt could not keep the dragon heir in her belly. , must be punished severely.”

"Just because he and Tweety are in love with each other, I will punish Imperial Physician Li to be demoted to the third rank, fined his salary for one year, and will not be allowed to participate in the imperial hospital's promotion assessment within one year!"

Li Chenxiu was kneeling on the ground, and he was already prepared in his heart to be given death by Shang Kelan, but he did not expect to be punished like this by Concubine Chen!
If she was punished lightly, Li Chenxiu would not be able to participate in the promotion assessment within a year; if she was punished severely, the crime of not reporting the knowledge and murdering the dragon's heir would be enough to implicate him in the nine clans!

Such a moderate punishment, such an open-minded Concubine Chen, was different from what Concubine Ning and Cui'er had said in his ears.

Soon, Li Chenxiu lowered his head, concealed the complicated gaze in his eyes, and said respectfully: "Thank you, Concubine Chen, for your sin!"

Tweety also realized that now she only felt that she had walked through the door of hell, and her whole heart was beating fast.

She wept with joy, kowtowed excitedly to Concubine Chen and said, "Thank you, Madam! I thank Concubine Chen for not killing you!"

It's just ten years in Xinzheku. As long as people are still alive, there is still hope!
Living in this palace, what people fear most is death, after death, nothing will be left.

After Shang Kelan expressed his punishment to these two people, even the queen's eyes flashed a flash of surprise, but if you didn't observe carefully, you wouldn't have noticed this strange emotion in the queen's eyes.

And Shang Kelan also turned around and smiled at the queen, saying: "Your Majesty, is this punishment for my concubine okay?"

The queen smiled, and said dignifiedly and gently: "Sister Concubine Chen has her own reasons. Now that the matter has been dealt with, sisters should go back first, and I will go back to the palace to rest."

"The concubine sends the empress empress respectfully!"

The queen opened her mouth, and the concubines stayed for a while. After the queen went out holding Tao Xiang's hand, these concubines also left with their maids.

Occasionally, a few concubines who had been friends with each other walked together, discussing the matter of Concubine Chen and Concubine Ning.

Although Tweety's explanation was reasonable, there were still many loopholes in it. No matter how you looked at it, it didn't look like something that a court lady who had served Concubine Ning personally for many years could do.

And the two servants also came up and took Li Chenxiu and Cui'er down.

Concubine Hua also complained about "boring" and left here holding Meizi's hand.

Immediately, only Concubine Ning and Concubine Chen were left in the hall.

Concubine Ning got up and looked at Shang Kelan with a gloomy expression. Just when she was about to pass by Monk Kelan, Concubine Ning sneered and said, "Sister is lucky, she can save herself from danger every time!"

Shang Kelan was unmoved, and said with a faint smile: "I will send a word to my sister, harming others will eventually harm oneself."

Zhi Zi supported Shang Kelan and watched Concubine Ning vigilantly, for fear that Concubine Ning would accidentally fall on Shang Kelan and be accused of murdering the dragon's heir.

Concubine Ning just paused, then left here with a gloomy expression!
