Chapter 144 I Want to Scold Someone
When Shen Chuliu was admiring the chrysanthemums in the garden, she happened to meet Su Yunu again.
"Greetings to Lady Jing." Su Yunu had a very good attitude.
"The chrysanthemums are blooming beautifully, and they have attracted Su Yu'nu here." Shen Chuliu smiled.
The place where Su Yunv lives is not very close to the Imperial Garden.
"I have nothing to do. When I was a palace maid, I walked such long distances many times, but it doesn't seem far to me." Her eyes were clear and she spoke very naturally.
He doesn't seem to be afraid of mentioning his background.
No matter how much drama there is in this, it is still worth a look.
"It's really nothing to take a walk just to see these beautiful flowers." Shen Chuliu said.
Su Yu-nu looked over and saw that Jing Meiren was wearing a rouge-red skirt and a milky white cape. Her skin looked even whiter than jade.
It is all embroidered with silver thread, which is very delicate and beautiful.
She had her hair in a lily bun and adorned it with jewelry made of agate beads wrapped in gold wire.
She had a face like a lotus, with curved eyebrows and eyes, and a pointed chin, but not too pointed.
Jing Meiren has a very good bone structure. She has an oval face, which shows that she has her own charm when she is thin and when she is fat.
Even when she gets older, she will still have a mature charm.
It’s no wonder that such a person is favored. He really deserves it.
While she was observing Shen Chuliu, Shen Chuliu was also observing her.
Finally, the two of them sat together in the place where the chrysanthemums bloomed best and drank tea.
The weather was cold, so the servants serving in the imperial garden brought a stove and boiled some hot water for fear that the tea would get cold.
"Sitting among these chrysanthemums and drinking chrysanthemum tea is also a kind of artistic conception." Shen Chuliu said.
Su Yu Nu nodded: "Yes, this chrysanthemum tea can clear away heat, reduce dryness and moisten the lungs, it is also a good thing. I will go and get some later."
"Su Yu-nu is living in Fenghua Pavilion now, so she should have everything." Shen Chuliu thought that the emperor was always generous when he favored anyone.
Although it sounds like this Su Yunu didn't receive as much reward as herself, she should have enough.
"Miss Jing is right. We are not lacking anything, but the regular tea we serve does not include chrysanthemum," said Su Yu Nu.
Shen Chuliu nodded, indicating that what he said made sense.
As they were talking, they heard the eunuchs' voices, and Concubine Yi had arrived.
Shen Chuliu was surprised. If this person was not sick, why did he come to the Imperial Garden?
It’s not that close from her Changle Palace.
Concubine Yi came in a sedan chair, and Shen Chuliu and Su Yunu had to stand up.
"Hello, Queen Yi."
Concubine Yi ignored him and waited for the carriage to land. When she slowed down, she found that Shen Chuliu had already stood up.
"Now Lady Jing is actually paying her respects to me, and she is so reluctant?"
"Empress Yi has wronged me. Didn't I pay my respects to you?" Shen Chuliu said in a low voice.
But when Su Yunu, who was still polite, heard it, she felt really embarrassed.
"Su Yu-nu, please get up. Lady Jing has disobeyed me, so you should kneel for an hour as punishment. Just kneel inside the chrysanthemums. The view is quite nice." Concubine Yi said indifferently.
"Where did I contradict the queen? I refuse to accept it." Shen Chuliu thought, is Concubine Yi crazy? "You are contradicting the queen right now!" Huashan snorted.
"I am a servant of Concubine Yi, and I am so rude to my masters. What do you think?" Shen Chuliu glared.
"Hua Shan, don't talk too much." Concubine Yi said calmly, "You didn't pay respects properly, so I made you kneel. What's wrong with that? Or is it that I am a second-rank concubine, so I can't teach a little beauty like you a lesson?"
"It is not difficult for the Majesty to punish me. Even if there is no reason, I am not as powerful as the Majesty." Shen Chuliu sneered: "It is a pity that the Majesty is in danger now, and she still wants to punish me for the sake of face. Then this kneeling of mine is a gift to the Majesty."
As Shen Chuliu spoke, he lifted his cloak and knelt there.
To see the dead off is just a kneeling gesture.
Afterwards, Zizhu and Chisu also knelt down.
When Concubine Yi understood the meaning of these words, she was furious, but everyone knelt down.
If it was a punishment like slapping someone in the face, she really wouldn't dare.
"You are so rude, Lady Jing! Since you accept the punishment, I will make you kneel for the whole afternoon! Go back after dark! Go back to the palace!" Concubine Yi said angrily.
Hua Shan was still angry: "I will stay and watch her."
Concubine Yi said nothing and left with the others.
Su Yunv hesitated for a moment: "Lady Jing, it's very cold here, why don't we change places?"
"Su Yu-nu has now forgotten her roots and who her master is." The painted fan sounded cold.
Su Yu-nu looked up at her and said, "Miss Huashan is right. It is absolutely right."
"Lady Jing, I will leave first." Su Yu Nu said.
Shen Chuliu also smiled and said, "Slow down."
Su Yunu turned around and walked a little further away with Cong Meng. Cong Meng said, "That painted fan is too arrogant."
"If you are arrogant, you must have some ability, otherwise you are courting death. The servants in Changle Palace have not yet seen the situation clearly." Su Yunv sneered: "Do you think Jing Meiren is a good person? If you make enemies, Concubine Yi may be able to protect herself, but painting a fan is not courting death?"
"Yes, Concubine Jing is at the peak of her career now, and Concubine Yi is so ill. Why bother? Isn't this offending people? The emperor doesn't treat her as well as before. Concubine Jing is whispering in the emperor's ear, so won't the emperor treat her even colder? Alas..." Cong Meng sighed.
Su Yunu smiled and said, "Some people can't make it to the end."
Under normal circumstances, Concubine Yi might not be unable to see clearly, but now that Concubine Yi is ill, she is less rational in everything.
It's inevitable to make mistakes.
But today, maybe it would be better to punish myself instead.
Su Yunu knew clearly that the emperor had been showing her a lot of favor recently, but how much of it was sincere?
After all, it's still not as good as Jingmei's.
"Master, please use your cloak as a cushion." Zizhu felt sorry for her master.
"Zizhu, I think you should just worry less!" Huashan snorted coldly, and she stood aside pretending to watch.
"We are all servants, so who is nobler than the other?" Chi Su sneered.
If the painted fan comes over, it will hit someone.
Shen Chuliu stretched out a hand and grabbed Hua Shan's hand: "Do you want to try to touch her?"
There wasn't much anger on Lady Jing's face, but she just didn't dare to continue.
She shook off Shen Chuliu and stood aside: "Why bother, Lady Jing, I am just following your orders."
It actually means to pick oneself out.
Shen Chuliu sneered, what a fool!
Concubine Yi returned to Changle Palace. When Fuxiang heard from other maids that Concubine Yi had punished Lady Jing to kneel, she felt dizzy...
"Master! What are you doing?" Fuxiang didn't know how to persuade him: "Where is the painted fan?"
A little girl said, "Sister Huashan said she was keeping an eye on Lady Jing."
“…It’s really harmful.” Fuxiang really wanted to curse.
"My queen, you are now... why do you have to make so many enemies?" Fuxiang was so anxious.
On the way back, Concubine Yi regretted her decision, but she had already been punished, so what else could she do? (End of this chapter)
