Chapter 110 No one should have any evil thoughts!
Bai Wutong bowed his head and saluted.
After a while, the Queen Mother finally arrived.
The nanny next to her lifted the curtain, revealing her gloomy face.
She looked at Wen Chuyun and Bai Wutong, "I already know what happened. This slave almost killed the heir to the throne. According to palace rules, she should be beaten to death. Concubine Zhao, even if you are pregnant, you still have to abide by the palace rules."
Bai Wutong raised his head, "Empress Dowager, it was Cuiwei who stretched out her leg and tripped Chan'er, causing her to crash into the sedan chair. If she really wanted to hurt someone, why would she crash into the wooden beam in the middle of the sedan chair? That's the place where accidents are least likely to happen!"
Wen Chuyun covered her chest and said, "Empress Dowager, let's just forget it. Although I was frightened just now, there is a breath stuck in my chest and it is very uncomfortable. But since Sister Zhaopin insists on protecting me, I'd better not move, lest she get upset again."
"One by one, they really make me worry!"
Although the Queen Mother values Wen Chuyun more, the baby in Bai Wutong's belly is still alive. Although she doesn't know whether it is developing well, it has not been born yet after all. She can't directly conclude that the two children are inferior.
Thinking about it this way, she didn't beat Chan'er to death after all.
"Princess Zhao, because you are pregnant with the heir to the throne, I will spare this maid's life today. But she has done something wrong and must be punished. Otherwise, what will others think? Come on, give her twenty strokes of the cane!"
Two maids came forward.
Bai Wutong continued to protect Chan'er, "Empress Dowager, she did nothing wrong, why should she be beaten?"
"How dare you disobey my words! From today on, you will continue to be confined to Zhaochun Palace until you give birth to an imperial heir. You are not allowed to come out! I can't bear to hit a little slave girl. You really don't know how high the heaven is and how deep the earth is!"
"My queen, it's only twenty strokes of the cane. I can bear it!" Chan'er didn't want to see Bai Wutong being confined anymore, so she rushed out and bumped into the maid, "Go ahead and hit me, but don't let my queen see it."
"Hit me here, I'll watch." Bai Wutong realized that he would not be able to avoid the beating today.
She looked at the two eunuchs carrying the boards with a threatening look.
If they dare to use force, don't blame her for being rude!
The two eunuchs felt frightened by her gaze.
These are concubines with royal heirs. Wouldn't it be like a piece of cake to find an opportunity to kill them in the future?
They lowered their heads, raised the sticks high, and finally let them fall gently.
The two men were already veterans and knew how to make it look like they were hitting hard but in fact it didn't hurt. After twenty blows from the board, the wounds were only superficial and they could still get up.
Chan'er screamed in response.
After a moment, the two eunuchs stopped and the Queen Mother waved her hands irritably.
"You two are both pregnant with the heir to the throne, the future of Darong Nation. Don't have any evil thoughts. If something happens to the heir to the throne, you won't be well either! Remember, your children are your strength!"
After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she lowered the curtain and walked away leisurely.
Bai Wutong asked Yingchun to support Chan'er, and took a last look at Wen Chuyun, "God is watching what you do, if you do too many bad things, you will eventually be punished."
Wen Chuyun didn't care at all. She didn't believe in retribution or reincarnation.
She only cares about this life, and she wants to climb to a high place so that everyone can only look up to her!
Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Zhang Chengyan put down his brush and asked, "Have you asked clearly?"
Wang Decai nodded and bowed, "Yes, I asked clearly, and it was indeed the maid next to Concubine Wen who stretched out her leg first."
"In that case, there is no need to confine Concubine Zhao to her house. By the way, send something over to comfort her."
He won't touch Cuiwei for the time being, after all, it's not a big deal. Moreover, Wen Chuyun is less than three months pregnant, the fetus is unstable, and her emotions should not fluctuate greatly.
After Bai Wutong's training in the past few months, he now knew a lot about women's pregnancy.
Zhang Chengyan soon immersed himself in memorials again and ignored external affairs.
Wang Decai looked at the list in his hand and thought it was almost done, so he did not disturb Zhang Chengyan, but had it delivered directly to Zhaochun Palace.
Bai Wutong was directing Yingchun to apply medicine to Chan'er.
Fortunately, it was just some minor skin injuries. Although it looked scary, there were actually no injuries to the bones.
Chan'er was so moved that her eyes were red, "My Lady, thank you for protecting this servant."
"You are mine, so of course I have to protect you." Bai Wutong consoled him, "Just take a rest these few days. Come back and serve me when you feel better."
Yunxiang walked in quickly, "Your Highness, Eunuch Wang's men are here, and they brought a lot of rewards, saying they are from the Emperor. It seems that the Emperor knows who was wrong about today's incident, and this is to comfort you. He also said that you don't have to be confined to your house, and you can go out to see the flowers if you want."
Bai Wutong nodded, feeling a little more comforted in his heart.
No matter what, the emperor still sent me rewards, which means he still cares about me.
"Put everything out."
Xiao Ningzi ran over and said, "My lady, Lady Duan is here."
"Let her in now."
The voice came before the person arrived. Duan Chunrou's voice was clear and clean. "Sister, I am coming here at this time. I hope I am not disturbing you."
"No, how did you get here?"
Duan Chunrou personally held the gift she had brought, "Sister heard about what happened today and hurried over. That Concubine Wen relied on the fact that she was pregnant and has now offended the entire harem."
Even though the reduction in the palace was not Wen Chuyun's original intention, the Queen Mother did it for her.
Since the many concubines could not touch the empress dowager, they naturally blamed everything on her.
Duan Chunrou sat beside Bai Wutong. "Sister, I came here today because of another matter. The flowers in the Imperial Garden are in full bloom. In previous years, the sisters in the harem would go to see the flowers on April 1st. The Empress specially asked us to go over today to tell her about this matter and asked me to pass on the message. Sister, if you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, forget it."
"Will Wen Chuyun go?"
It's not surprising to see flowers in April.
But this is a great opportunity to take action.
"She won't go. The Queen didn't dare to invite her. Sister, you forgot that the last time we came to see you together, we wanted to share in your good fortune, but we didn't expect to be led into the Snow Lotus Seed by Wen Chuyun. After that, no one dared to do anything casually."
"Will Concubine Jin go?"
Duan Chunrou nodded, "She will come. Although she is under house arrest, she is invited by the Queen, so she can still come out."
"Since everyone is going, I might as well go."
Duan Chunrou delivered her message and sat for a while before leaving.
There are only three days left until April 1st.
Bai Wutong opened the secret compartment in the box under the bed and took out a porcelain bottle.
It contains a colorless and odorless medicinal powder.
She would find an opportunity to let Jin Weige do something to her, and then she would use medicine powder to create the illusion of bleeding.
This move will not only punish Jin Weige, but the emperor will also definitely take time to visit her!
