The concubine was innocent: "Your Majesty, they are talking nonsense. I didn't do anything like this. I am innocent."

The emperor had a gloomy expression and looked at them with a colder look.

The two concubines were terrified, panic-stricken, and trembling. They did not expect that the emperor would happen to pass by. They had made a mistake.

Originally, he was just waiting for something to happen, but who knew that he would end up committing suicide.

The emperor looked at Yan Bao. Yan Bao's eyes were full of tears, with tears welling up in her eyes. She pouted in grievance and looked pitiful. Anyone who saw her would know that it was not her fault.

The emperor snorted coldly: "What did you say?"

The two concubines dared not admit it.

Ziyun actually had a good memory and repeated what they said.

When the emperor heard them mocking Concubine Jing, humiliating the Thirteenth Prince, and scolding Yan Bao, his face darkened: "You are already old, and you still bully a child. Aren't you ashamed?"

"Since you like to speak ill of others, I will give you a chance to curse me."

How dare they scold the emperor?

Don’t you want to live?

The charge of "rebellion" is enough to get them into trouble.

At this moment, the emperor missed Shen Shoufu very much. If Shen Shoufu was here, he would be able to hear the voices of the two concubines. I am afraid that they would scold him for being stupid and incompetent in their hearts!

The two concubines knelt on the ground, unable to lift their heads: "Your Majesty, I will punish you. I deserve to die."

When the emperor gets angry, how can it end so easily?

The emperor wanted to embarrass Concubine Jing, and this was the best time to make an example of her.

The two concubines were slapped ten times on the face, which was really a slap in the face.

After all, she is a concubine of a certain rank, but she still gets scolded by a big mouth. How shameful!

In addition to this, they were fined one year's salary and confined to their homes for a month to allow them to reflect on their actions.

They were punished, and their princes and princesses had to keep a low profile.

The two concubines were so regretful. They never thought that such a small matter could cause them to suffer such a big loss.

The two concubines who were slapped in the face no longer looked like the bullying, arrogance and self-conceited people they had just been. They looked like bullied wives.

Not only did Yan Bao enjoy hiding in the emperor's arms, he also hugged the emperor's neck. When he was scared, he buried his head behind the emperor's neck, sticking his little face close to it, like a little cotton-padded jacket keeping him warm.

The emperor embraced Yan Bao lovingly and patted her back soothingly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here, and I won't let anyone bully Yan Bao!"

The two punished concubines: "......"

Damn it!

They didn't expect that not only would they have to guard against the women in the harem competing for favor, but they also had to be on guard against the little girls outside the palace.

Are all little girls nowadays so naughty?
