Chapter 22

Seeing the Queen's Luan frame getting closer and closer, Chu Jin deliberately raised his voice and said: "According to Liu Chang said, this matter is still a knot in the hearts of the Emperor and the Empress?"

"Isn't that nonsense?" Xiao Changzai stopped Chu Jin's words and said, "If you were the one who couldn't give birth, would you be able to feel at ease? Don't look at the empress who always smiles like a normal person, the pain in your heart Who can know?"

Chu Jin frowned and thought for a while, "It is understandable that the empress is not hesitant, but I went to the palace and asked the ceremonial officer, and they said that during these days, the emperor spent more than ten days in the empress's palace. The empress dotes on me very much, if it is according to what you said, seeing that the emperor treats the empress really well, I don't despise it."

Liu Changzai gave Chu Jin a blank look, and said coldly: "There are three ways to be unfilial and have no descendants. There are also records of the seven outlaws. Women have no descendants. Do you think the emperor doesn't care about this? Today's favor is also for the sake of it." Let the empress get out of the haze as soon as possible. Just wait and see, after a while"

"It is a rule of seven that a woman has no future. Why does Liu Changzai make such noise on the long street? You can go to Chaoyang Palace and remind the emperor to let him retire from this palace so that he can make way for you. Dazhao's Empress, can you be the queen?"

The queen's voice came from around the corner, and the next moment, when Xiao Changzai and Liu Changzai saw the phoenix sedan chair turning a corner and standing in front of them, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they knelt together and said, "Wanfu, the empress, empress!" Kim Ann."

Chu Jin also leaned down to greet Ann, but she wasn't afraid at all.

The queen opened the sedan chair curtain, looked sharply at Liu Changzai who was kneeling on the ground and trembling unceasingly, and said slowly: "Liu Changzai, your mouth is too broken. It has nothing to do with you whether the palace can have children. What do you do? How does the emperor treat me and what does it have to do with you? You are respectful to me on the surface, but you have so many incidents behind your back, double-faced and three-handed, it is disgusting."

Liu Changzai was so frightened that his knees went limp and collapsed on the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic to make amends, "Queen empress, don't be angry, this concubine doesn't mean that, concubine is loyal to empress, empress."

"Loyalty?" The Empress sneered, "You have been so loyal to Ben Gong, if you become malicious again, wouldn't it be like Concubine Li that you will take my life?"

Liu Chang was stern, and cried aloud after being so frightened by the queen, unable to speak a whole sentence.

Xiao Changzai interceded for her: "Empress, the Chu family entered the palace today, and Liu Changzai also wanted to reprimand her for you, so that he would speak indiscriminately and make mistakes."

"Admonish me for this palace? Is this palace not long-handed or long-mouthed? If you want to admonish a concubine, you have to do it for me?"

Chu Jin glanced at the empress's ashen complexion, and persuaded softly: "Empress empress, calm down, the two elder sisters have no intention of offending, why don't you forgive them this time?"

The queen stared at Chu Jin with dark eyes for a long while, thinking that she was reprimanding Xiao Changzai and Liu Changzai here, but Chu Jin pleaded for her.If I really indulged her two today, they must remember Chu Jin's kindness in their hearts.

She must not let Chu Jin have the slightest chance to win people's hearts, so she said in a deep voice: "It's fine if you don't persuade them, but if you persuade them, I will let the palace people feel that the master is unruly. It will be even more difficult to control them in the future. The palace rules are strict, and those who violate the superior by gossiping behind their backs will be fined for one month and slapped for forty. Today, I will compare the two of them as an example." He told the people beside him The maidservant in charge said: "Qing Dai, let me smash the mouths of the two of them to see if they still dare to talk to you!"

Xiao Changzai and Liu Changzai cried together, calling for the queen to spare her life.

It was around 10:30, the sun was scorching, and the sun shone on people's bare skin, and it was hot and painful after shining for a long time.

The queen didn't have the leisure to watch her villain being tortured, so she raised her hand and ordered the palace servants to carry the sedan chair.

Qingdai, the servant girl in charge of Fengluan Palace, bowed to Xiao Changzai and Liu Changzai, and said sorry, she turned left and right, and slapped each of them on the face.

After all, the two of them are the masters, and the queen is not watching the execution, so Qing Dai is naturally merciful, not daring to offend.

Chu Jin stood in the shade under the eaves and watched for a while, seeing that half of the forty slaps had been done, Xiao Changzai and Liu Changzai were not in pain, not even blushing, so he went forward and whispered to Qingdai: " Do you remember what the empress told you last? The empress asked you to smack their mouths, you slapped them with forty slaps, and the two of them returned to the palace unscathed. Guess what the empress is so angry today , how will I treat you when I return to the palace?"

Qing Dai looked at Chu Jin with a bit of horror in her eyes, and Chu Jin covered her mouth again and whispered: "It's convenient to be with others, at least you have to keep yourself safe, right? Auntie waits by the empress's side, and you must know how to read words and expressions, so that you can live your life It's decent and comfortable."

"What are you muttering there?" Xiao Chang asked, glaring at Chu Jin angrily.

Chu Jin leaned slightly, and said with a serene smile, "It's nothing, I'm pleading for the two sisters."

After finishing speaking, Chu Jin leisurely walked towards his palace.

Behind him, the sound of Qing Dai slapping the two resounded through the long street, and the echo made people terrified.

Chu Jin's heart trembled suddenly, when he looked back, he could only see that Xiao Changzai and Liu Changzai had been slapped three times, and the blood gushed out from the corner of their mouths, staining their plain woven cloaks red.

Accompanied by the clear and melodious applause and the miserable screams of the two, Chu Jin hummed a little tune, and left hand in hand with Linglong.

After walking a little further, Linglong said worriedly: "Miss, you have offended all the masters in the palace in just one day, what will you do in the future?"

"Do you still remember what I said to you when I left the house?" Chu Jin took a deep breath of the pleasant fragrance of flowers in the air, and fixed her eyes on Linglong's face, "I said that I will never admit bullying again in my life. My My life must be in my own hands, and it is not in vain for my mother to risk her life and bring me into this world. If others do not offend me, I will speak kindly to her. But if anyone has a wrong mind and dares to bully If it comes to me, then it’s no wonder that I’m cruel. After all these years of enduring in the Chu family, my good temper has long since worn out.”

"In the future, if you want to suffer or suffer, let others suffer. I've had enough."

Linglong nodded slowly, but still said worriedly: "Miss is good to have such thoughts, but we enter the palace alone and have no one to rely on. It is not good to make too many enemies."

"Reliance? What is relying on in this palace?" Chu Jin smiled and said, "Is it the emperor's favor?"

"That's right. But the second lady has done such a thing. Not only the empress has complaints against us, but the emperor also. If the lady wants to be favored, I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Chu Jin straightened the pleats on the cloak and skirt, and walked forward with lotus steps, "Chu Yue is Chu Yue, and I am me. No matter how difficult the road is, go step by step, and there will always be an end."

Chu Jin knew in her heart that no matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead was, she must be favored by the emperor.

The reason is not to protect herself in this harem, but only if she is favored by the emperor, can she have a bargaining chip to avenge her mother.

The Chu family endured dormancy for eighteen years. Now that she has the chance, she will not easily let go of the person who gave her and her mother pain.
