The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 704
Xiao Jun hurriedly took his little hand and coaxed him a few words, and then reprimanded Xiao Jieyu: "Why are you so careless in holding the baby, and brought him to such a slippery place, what if he falls? manage?"

Xiao Jieyu felt really uncomfortable at the moment. When the emperor came, he didn't ask how the two princes were doing, and he didn't ask how Lin Guiyi was doing. Instead, he was concerned about the health of the concubine Chen first. She was reprimanded directly.Xiao Jieyu was full of grievances, and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, it's not good for all the concubines. Qi'er saw everyone throwing zongzi into the water, so she had to throw one with her own hands. Seeing that he was happy, the concubine hugged him." Here we come. Chen Qie didn't accidentally drop him, but he seemed to have stepped on something and slipped. Just now, Qi'er was crying all the time. Before Chen Qie came, it was time for someone to find out if he had stepped on something. What."

Xiao Jun read Fuquan and said: "Take someone to see what happened on the shore that made Xiao Jieyu almost fall."

Fu Quan hurriedly responded, and took people to the shore to search for a while. When he came back, he held a huge round pearl in his palm and said, "Your Majesty, my servant found this in the mud on the shore. It seems to be some little master's jewelry." on things."

Qingchen looked at the bead before he could react, when Qin Wanrong exclaimed, "Oh, isn't this the bead on Sang Guirong's earring?"

All eyes were on Sang Guirong's ears, and sure enough, they saw that of her pair of earrings, only one was left on her ears, and the other had only one ring left for some reason, which turned out to be a chain If it is too thin, the bead will be too heavy and break.Most likely it was at that time that it rolled and fell under Xiao Jieyu's feet and let Xiao Jieyu step on it which caused the accident.

Sang Guirong saw that everyone was pointing at her, and her anxious face turned pale instantly. Xiao Jun asked her, "Is this pearl from your pendant?"

Sang Guirong hurriedly said: "If you go back to the emperor, it's true that the concubine's pendant is on it, but the concubine didn't know why it broke."

Xiao Jun said angrily: "You don't know how your own jewelry is broken? You are also pregnant, so careless, if you accidentally step on the dragon's heir who is in the belly, what should you do? "

The emperor's inadvertent reprimand made all the concubines present who heard it look inexplicably astonished, and Sang Guirong was even more shocked, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The emperor forgives you, this pendant ... This pendant is also worn by the concubine for the first time, and it was newly rewarded by the empress this morning, so the concubine didn't pay attention to it so much... The emperor's forgiveness, it is all the concubine's fault, it is the concubine's negligence, etc. Next, go to Lin Guiyi Palace to plead guilty to the empress."

The emperor was slightly taken aback, and then asked: "Is it the queen's reward?"

Sang Guirong nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, my concubine went to greet the empress this morning. I went a little early, and the empress hadn't even dressed yet, so my concubine helped me to wait on the side. The empress was so happy that she rewarded the minister. The concubine's pair of earrings, said to match the clothes of the concubine, let the concubine wear them instead, who would have thought that such a thing would happen after wearing them for a while, the concubine really deserves to die, please forgive me crime."

There was a sneer at the corner of Qingchen's mouth, thinking that Sang Guirong was also a scheming person, this earring was rewarded by the empress, and something happened within two hours of wearing it, who knows if the empress deliberately wanted to harm her?At this time, the more she pleaded guilty, the more sympathetic she would be, and the more people would think about it. It seemed that the queen had suffered the consequences of herself.

Qin Wanrong didn't know what kind of thoughts she was harboring, she sneered meanly and said: "Why is this concubine so awkward after hearing Sang Guirong's words, it seems to be saying that the empress wants to harm you, but the result is wrong By mistake, someone else stepped on the falling pendant, are you suspicious of the empress, or are you looking for excuses for your inattention?"

Sang Guirong knelt on the ground and glanced at her sharply, kowtowed again and said to the emperor with a bit of tears: "Your majesty, I believe that the empress will not harm my concubine, but I really don't know this Why did the pendant suddenly break? It was the concubine's fault, and the concubine did not dare to shirk, no matter how the emperor punished the concubine, the concubine would not complain, but I beg the emperor not to be suspicious of the empress."

As she said this, she was already sobbing and crying. Qingchen and Concubine Li looked at each other, and both showed a knowing sneer. The second one, sometimes even Concubine Li, who has always been good at acting, has to bow down.

Xiao Jun was obviously also a little surprised, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and he said in a deep voice: "Get up, the ground is cold, you have a body and you should not kneel for a long time." The queen is not there, and she is the master of the harem. , even the emperor can't condemn at will, otherwise, where is the majesty of the empress?In any case, the face that should be saved must be saved.

"Thank you, concubine, for your majesty's compassion." Sang Guirong supported Xia Tong's hand and stood up slowly, but said coldly to Qin Wanrong: "Didn't the empress concubine Chen punish Wanrong's sister to kneel on the bank to reflect, without her order?" , who told you to get up privately?"

Qin Wanrong's eyes froze, and she said unwillingly: "I came here to pay my respects to the emperor, is there something wrong?"

Except for Jin Xin and Jin Xiu who were punished by Qing Chen, Xiao Jun has never seen anyone else punished by Qing Chen. She never speaks out easily, even if a slave occasionally disrespects her, she will not take it to heart. This time, she actually punished the concubine, and Qin Wanrong, who was loved by the Queen Mother, was unexpected to Xiao Jun.

"Why punish her?"

Qin Wanrong wanted the villain to complain first, so she said first, "Your Majesty, the concubine is just talking..."

"I didn't ask you! I asked Concubine Chen." The emperor's face immediately darkened.

Qingchen didn't make any waves on his face, and wrote lightly: "Speak disrespect, sow discord."

Xiao Jun nodded, and stopped asking further questions, and said indifferently: "Very well, then let her continue to kneel and reflect."

Qin Wanrong is not only losing face at this moment, but also full of grievances. What kind of reason is this, just because the eight words of concubine Chen are neither serious nor serious, and the emperor didn't investigate the reason carefully, so he let her punish herself to continue kneeling and let her So many people watching their own jokes!
"Your Majesty, the concubine has something to say, please let the concubine finish."

"No need, it's not a big deal, I don't want to go into details." Xiao Jun's tone was already very indifferent, and she frowned slightly as she looked at a little eunuch kneeling not far away, "Concubine Chen has always been kind, I believe she is not If you deliberately humiliate you in front of so many people for no reason, you must be at fault first, so what else is there to say?"

The emperor lifted his chin slightly, and then asked: "What mistake did that little eunuch do again, why is he kneeling here?"
