Yu Meilin felt uncomfortable after hearing this and wanted to lose her temper.
But she thought that now only Yu Jinshu could help her gain the emperor's favor, so she suppressed her temper.
Yu Jinshu said, "Mother, I was born a concubine, and my mother died early. No one doted on me, so I became a bit cowardly. Even when I was bullied, I dared not say a word. Now I am fortunate to be favored by the emperor, but I don't have the courage to order the emperor to favor someone else."
As soon as Zhang heard it, she understood that this girl was holding a grudge!
"Jinshu, you are now a Grand Secretary, the only female official in the court. I underestimated your abilities. You are magnanimous enough to forgive me for what happened in the past. It is said that harmony is the most important thing in a family. You and Concubine Ning are both descendants of the Yu family. You are sisters and should support each other."
Yu Jinshu sneered, "Sisters? Why do I feel like Concubine Ning and I are not sisters?"
Yu Hengqing said, "Why not? You are all my father's bloodline."
Yu Jinshu looked at Yu Meilian and said, "Since we are sisters, why did you bully me when I was still young?"
She turned to look at Yu Hengqing again, "Since I am your blood, why did you turn a blind eye when I was bullied? Are you blind and can't see it?"
At the end, he didn't forget to curse to vent his anger.
Yu Hengqing's eyes widened at the scolding. Out of habit, he slammed the table and said, "You rebellious girl, you actually dared to call your father blind. I'll teach you a lesson."
After saying that, he raised his fist and was about to hit.
Yu Jinshu didn't hide and stretched his face forward.
Just as Yu Hengqing's fist was about to land on Yu Jinshu's face, he heard a "whoosh" sound, and a dagger emitting a cold light pierced Yu Hengqing's wrist.
"ah……"
Yu Hengqing screamed, pinched his wrist and looked towards the door, but it was the emperor walking towards him hurriedly.
Obviously, this dagger was thrown by the emperor.
No matter how painful Yu Hengqing's wound was, he had to kneel down and salute the emperor, "Your Majesty, this humble servant..."
Pu Kun walked up to Yu Hengqing and without a word, kicked him in the chest, knocking him to the ground. "Where did you come from, you beast? How dare you lay hands on my woman?"
He looked at Zhang Li who was standing beside him and said, "Catch him and throw him into the leopard house to feed the leopards."
It just so happened that two years ago, foreign envoys sent a few leopards.
Yu Hengqing was terrified when he heard this. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy: "Your Majesty, I dare not do it again. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Zhang was also frightened and quickly knelt down in front of the emperor to beg for mercy for her husband.
Yu Meilian knew very well that if her father died, she, as Concubine Ning, would lose her position, so she knelt down and begged for mercy.
Pu Kun walked to Yu Jinshu, held her in his arms, and looked coldly at Yu Hengqing and his family of three.
"I didn't know before that Jinshu had such a hard life in the Anning Marquis's mansion. He lost his mother at such a young age and could only be bullied by the mistress and his eldest sister, while his father did not care about him at all."
He looked at Yu Jinshu with tears in his eyes. He was really heartbroken. When he thought of what Zhang Li had found out, that Jinshu had to do rough labor with the servants of the Bo's Mansion at such a young age, and was often beaten and scolded by the mistress and his elder sister, he, a man, was so angry that he was about to cry.
When he rushed over at this time, he happened to meet An Ning Bo Yu Hengqing who was about to punch Jin Shu.
Just ask him if he is angry? Annoyed? Does he want to kill someone?
"Zhang Li, throw this family of three into the leopard house to feed the leopards."
When the emperor said this, Yu Meilin and Zhang were so frightened that they huddled together.
Yu Meilian shook her head and shouted, "No, no, don't feed me to the leopard."
Seeing the emperor's indifferent expression, she turned to look at Yu Jinshu, crawled towards Yu Jinshu, and hugged Yu Jinshu's legs: "Jinshu, I am sorry for you. Please ask the emperor not to throw me into the leopard room. I don't want to be bitten by the leopard, I don't want to..."
I was so scared that I was shaking all over, crying and tears streaming down my face.
Zhang also came to plead for mercy.
Yu Jinshu didn't want the emperor to be branded a tyrant because of him.
Besides, although this family is vicious, there is no need to feed them to leopards.
She looked at Pu Kun and said, "Your Majesty, they are my relatives after all. Although their mistakes are not small, they do not deserve the death penalty."
Death is too easy for them, they should be made to live a life worse than death.
Pu Kun said, "Jinshu, you are too kind-hearted. They bullied you so much that even if you died a hundred times, it would not be enough to offset the damage they did to you."
He sighed, "If you don't want them to die, then don't let them die."
Upon hearing this, Yu Hengqing's family of three stopped crying and kowtowed to Pu Kun to express their gratitude.
Pu Kun said, "Although I have spared your death sentence, you will still be punished for your crimes."
The hearts of the family of three tightened again.
Pu Kun said, "Yu Hengqing, the Earl of Anning, shall be stripped of his title and exiled three thousand miles. Zhang, as the mistress of a household, bullied the weak and was sentenced to slavery and exile three thousand miles."
He looked at Yu Meilian and said, "Yu Meilian, although she comes from a noble family, she has no virtue as a woman. To prevent her from bringing harm to other families, she will be made a slave and exiled three thousand miles."
Yu Meilian suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Although she saved her life, she, a royal concubine, was punished by being made a slave and exiled three thousand miles away!
She covered her face and cried.
If I had known this would happen, I would have gone home like those concubines and married a good man.
But now, there is no way to regret it.
Zhang Li dragged the family of three away.
Yu Hengqing regrets it!
If I had known this would happen, I would not have come to the palace to seek wealth and status. Instead, I ended up making things worse and hurt myself.
The hall became quiet.
Pu Kun hugged Yu Jinshu tightly.
"Jinshu, I only thought you were so smart because you were well-educated in the Marquis's Mansion, but I never thought you were forced to be so smart. I should have done you justice sooner rather than later."
Yu Jinshu put his arms around Pu Kun's waist and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, it's not too late now."
She was so touched that she wanted to cry when she saw the tears in his eyes.
This man is worthy of her having children for him. She would be happy to have eight or ten children.
Yu Jinshu suddenly remembered the incident at the Bo Mansion and pushed Pu Kun away. "Your Majesty, I have a half-brother who is also bullied by the mistress and the legitimate daughter."
Pu Kun stroked her face with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, the An Ning Marquis' Mansion is still your mother's family, and the title will not be reduced. Your half brother will inherit the title."
Yu Jinshu felt relieved. The emperor was very thoughtful.
Pu Kun added, "As for those who bullied you in the imperial kitchen before, I will not let any of them go."
Yu Jinshu thought of Yirong.
By doing this, the emperor can rectify the atmosphere in the palace.
However, there are no concubines in the palace now, and I am afraid that many palace maids will be released from the palace.
People outside all yearn for the palace, but they don’t know that the palace is not only a den of dragons and tigers, but also a cage.
