Chapter 157: Fight Again
"Since it's not you, I can't wrong you. It's just that you have a bad temper, and you should be more careful in the future." Princess Lao Shun looked her up and down: "And with this outfit, you should know that simplicity and elegance are good."
She has been a widow for many years, so naturally she can't stand anything bright.
Shen Chuliu would talk to her about this? She just smiled: "Since the old princess said that I am indeed innocent, then I am relieved."
Qi Yixiu's head hurt a little. He had a feeling that this woman was going to make trouble...
Sure enough, the next second, Shen Chuliu turned her head back to look at Empress Dowager Li again: "Empress Dowager, please make the decision for me, for the Dayi Imperial Family, for the Emperor's reputation, and for the innocence of the royal family."
Each and every sound was so scary.
Empress Dowager Li was a little stunned for a moment.
"Miss Jing." Qi Yixiu called her in a deep voice.
This was telling her to quit while she was ahead, but Shen Chuliu didn't see anything good in it.
"Your Majesty, I know you are upset. The old princess is an elder, and I can do nothing about it. But even if I have been wronged, it doesn't matter. What about your reputation, Your Majesty? What about the reputation of the royal family? What about the reputation of the royal family?"
"Lady Jing is too unreasonable. What does this have to do with the royal family?" Concubine Feng couldn't help but say.
"What Concubine Feng Shu said is not right." Su Yu stood up at this time: "The old princess has grievances against the royal family and the emperor, but she shouldn't be so confused about right and wrong. It's chilling to hear that you don't take the royal family's reputation seriously and slander them at will."
"Who are you? How dare you accuse me at will! I just don't like it, how does it discredit the royal family? Can you still represent the royal family?" Princess Shun was used to having the final say at home. The royal family also gave her face because she had been a widow for many years, which made her arrogant.
"It's true that the old princess is our elder, but Concubine Jing and I are the emperor's concubines, so we can't even mention the royal family?" Su Yunu glared.
"How dare you, the daughter of a mere criminal!" Princess Laoshun snorted.
"It can be seen that the old princess does not take the royal family seriously, nor does she take the emperor seriously. We, the concubines of the royal family, are not in the old princess's eyes. But you must know that although you are the elder, we are the emperor's concubines, which is not a low status. The old princess herself does not know how to respect, and she slandered me for drugging. Seeing that the situation is not good, she thinks that a misunderstanding can be let go? And she slandered the Shen family's family education. How is my Shen family's family education, and it is your turn to say? The late emperor once praised my Shen family's daughter for her excellent family tradition. Now because of the old princess' words, should my Shen family's girl commit suicide?"
Shen Chuliu was so angry that she stood up and said, "It's true that Su Yu's family was convicted, but she is now the emperor's concubine. How dare the old princess look down on her like this? She is like this in front of the emperor, the empress dowager, and the queen. It shows that the old princess doesn't take the emperor seriously behind his back."
"Shen." Qi Yixiu frowned: "Why don't you leave?"
"Your Majesty, I feel sorry for you. You respect your elders and remember that the old prince Shun died early and the old princess had a hard time. You are kind and filial, but you see, the old princess doesn't know that you are the emperor. You are blaming me today, which is a slap in your face. Even if the old prince died early, so what?"
Tears flowed down Shen Chuliu's eyes. Qi Yixiu looked at her and saw what a beautiful picture of a beauty.
"Did the old Shun Wang do anything when he was alive? Or has the current Shun Wang done anything? It's not news that Shun Wang's legitimate son beat people in the street."
"Today, the old princess slandered me as soon as she opened her mouth, and even plotted to murder the heir to the throne. She even insulted the Shen family. Putting aside the relationship between the Shen family and me, how many heroes died in the Shen family? To be disrespectful, is the old princess who has accomplished nothing worthy of saying no?"
Shen Chuliu finished speaking in one breath, her tears sliding down her cheeks, making the half petal painted under her eyes look even more attractive.
She probably painted her eyebrows and eyes to look sharp today, and now with these tears, she is indescribably captivating.
"You...you are really rebellious, you are really...Your Majesty, are you just going to watch Shen be so disrespectful to me?" Princess Laoshun's hands were shaking with anger.
Qi Yixiu put the tea bowl in his hand on the table and said, "Shen! Why don't you leave?"
When things developed to this point, none of the concubines in the harem dared to speak.
This does not include the Queen, however.
The Queen suddenly smiled and said, "Look at what this is all about. It's my birthday, and it's a good festival. Alas."
"What can you say about the Queen's grievances? Today is the Queen's birthday! It's obvious that the old princess doesn't take the Queen seriously! And she deliberately chooses a major festival to cause trouble. If this isn't intentional, what is?" Shen Chuliu said angrily again.
"You you..." Princess Laoshun pointed at her angrily.
"If the old princess really wanted to do good for the royal family, she should have said it in private. Why did she have to say it today when there are so many people here and it's a festival and the Queen's birthday?" Su Yunv acted gentle and pulled Shen Chuliu to her side: "Sister Jing, don't be so sad. The Emperor will make the decision for you and me."
Shen Chuliu smiled sadly: "Thank you, sister."
"Someone, send Lady Jing and Su Yu back." Qi Yixiu frowned.
This looks like extreme anger.
But how much of the anger was directed at Jing Meiren? Also, when did Su Yu-nu stand with Jing Meiren? Everyone had a lot of questions in their heads.
After Shen Chuliu and Su Yunu left, Prince Shun stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. My mother was just agitated for a moment and she had good intentions..."
"Queen, I'm sorry to have wronged you." Qi Yixiu ignored him and just looked at the Queen.
"Your Majesty, what are you saying? I'll let it go. Birthdays happen every year. But Concubine Jing is really wronged. She has already been a victim, and now...ah." The Queen sighed.
"You are still speaking for her? You deserve to be punished for being so sharp-tongued." The emperor said angrily.
That's fake.
Another old princess in the royal family, Princess Ming, judged the situation and spoke: "Your Majesty, although Lady Jing's words are a bit harsh. But I think there is some truth in her words. Young people are also unable to hold back their anger when they are wronged. This reminds me of Princess Qinghua. She also had the same temper."
"Oh, now I remember it now." Another princess laughed.
"You are just praising her, but how can you compare to her?" Empress Dowager Li smiled.
"It's not as good as hers. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have said too much. It's such a good day, but I made the Queen unhappy. You should reward her well later." Empress Dowager Feng said with a smile.
She will step down, and no one dares to really blame her now.
"Sister, you are overthinking." Queen Mother Li shook her head: "It's not a big deal, just let it go."
As a result, Princess Shun was in a very difficult situation.
Although Ying Cairen only said that one sentence, people who understood have already figured it out.
Her face turned red and white.
