The other concubines and attendants immediately knelt down in fear and trepidation, calling on His Majesty to calm down.
Even the queen is no exception.
The Empress Dowager's face was as cold as ice. After the Emperor ascended the throne, no one dared to say such words to her.
She ignored Concubine Bao and only pointed her finger at Emperor Mingxi, "Emperor, this is your favorite concubine. She has no respect for the emperor and despises the empress!"
Emperor Mingxi's face turned ugly and he bowed to the Empress Dowager to apologize.
I used to think that Concubine Bao was cute, but today I realized how stupid she was.
Emperors are naturally suspicious and deep-minded. Emperor Mingxi always had a little special feeling for Concubine Bao, and this little bit allowed her to wield power in the harem.
After all, she was his favorite concubine, so Emperor Mingxi still gave Concubine Bao some face. "As the leader of the four concubines, you don't know how to be humble and magnanimous. In this case, you will be confined to me for three months to reflect on your mistakes."
The Queen Mother snorted coldly, obviously not satisfied with the result.
But he still gave his son some face and did not accuse him of anything.
Yan Chengyu had been brought here by the Queen Mother a long time ago, and was now chewing a piece of Ruyi.
This little fat boy feels uncomfortable if he doesn't chew something in his mouth all day.
The queen lowered her eyes, and others could not see the coldness in her eyes.
She stood up and bowed to Emperor Mingxi, "Your Majesty, Concubine Bao has never been thoughtful. Please forgive her this time. You see, she is crying so hard that I feel a little distressed."
Concubine Bao knelt on the ground, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Seeing that the queen spoke for her, she was not grateful at all and just felt that the queen was hypocritical.
The Queen Mother looked at the Queen with some surprise, but didn't say much.
She is old, and as long as it doesn't harm her good grandchildren, the Queen Mother doesn't want to care at all.
Yan Chengyu was still busy sucking his fingers, so the Queen Mother pulled his fat hands out.
He clutched the empress dowager's clothes tightly and looked at her with his big watery eyes.
The Queen Mother was so soft-hearted that she pinched her grandson's chubby cheeks.
Emperor Mingxi looked at Concubine Bao's tearful face and was ready to back down.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Bao exploded when she heard what the Queen said. Did she need this bitch to plead for mercy?
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, but I'm afraid you won't have to say more about the matter between me and the Emperor."
Lan Ying on the side was already in despair.
Tired, destroy it! Whoever wants to do this crappy job can do it.
Even if you don't give face to the monk, you should give face to the Buddha. No matter how poor the Queen is in family background and favor, she is still the mother of the Crown Prince. How can Queen Dazhao allow Concubine Bao to be so presumptuous?
"Ah, my!" You dare to bully my mother and ask for a beating.
Yan Chengyu was furious. Was his scumbag father really going to let his favorite concubine bully his mother?
The baby had a very strong grip. Yan Chengyu pulled off the pearl button on the Queen Mother's sleeve with force, and with a wave of his fat hand, threw it at Concubine Bao's forehead.
After throwing the ball, he waved his hands like flapping wings and looked very happy.
The Queen couldn't help but smile, and even the unpleasant feeling caused by Concubine Bao's usurpation was diluted.
Concubine Bao felt pain and picked up the pearl that fell on her collar angrily and was about to speak.
The Queen Mother saw this and was furious. "Come here, slap Concubine Bao's mouth! If you glare at my grandson again, I will send you to accompany Concubine Xian."
Yan Chengyu is her lifeblood, and the Empress Dowager is the Emperor's biological mother. If she gets angry, she won't care about the Emperor's face.
Yan Chengyu couldn't help but shudder when he saw Concubine Bao's murderous look.
He kicked his two fat little legs and started crying.
His eyelashes were thick and long, and he was crying so pitifully that there was mist on his eyelashes.
The queen no longer cared about anything else and took the little fat baby directly from the queen mother's arms.
"Yu'er, your mother is here. Yu'er, don't be afraid." But no matter how the queen coaxed him, Yan Chengyu just couldn't stop and cried until he was about to get a stitch in his side.
The Queen Mother was also panicked and kept calling for the imperial physician.
Emperor Mingxi originally had some pity for Concubine Bao, but as Yan Chengyu burst into tears, he dropped everything and wanted to hug Yan Chengyu.
But the Queen refused. "Your Majesty was unwilling to deal with Concubine Bao from the beginning, so I tried to persuade her with kind words. Now look what's going on. My Yu'er has been frightened like this by your Concubine Bao!"
She has been trying to be a queen these days so that she can support Yu'er. But now no one can control Concubine Bao, and she has scared Yu'er like this.
The queen felt infinite hatred in her heart. She lifted up her skirt and kicked the kneeling Concubine Bao.
And no one in the hall dared to stop him.
Besides, Bao Fei couldn't breathe at this moment, and her heart felt like it was being squeezed. She knelt on the ground dejectedly. Bao Fei didn't know that a child could be frightened so easily.
Bao Fei did not dodge the Queen's fierce kicks. She knew that if anything happened to the Prince today.
Not to mention that her father is the prime minister, even a prince from the royal family cannot protect her.
And it is very likely that her entire family will be buried with her.
Thinking of this, she stammered with pale lips, "I don't have it."
The concubines around were in no mood to watch the show and were all terrified.
They hated implicating their own concubine!
The Queen was still not satisfied, so she slapped Concubine Bao twice more, turning her face, already swollen from being slapped, into a big pig's head.
The Queen Mother could understand the Queen, but seeing that her actions would affect Yan Chengyu, she still scolded him, "Queen, you are the mother of a country after all. There are servants to teach concubines a lesson. Put Yu'er down first."
The queen's face was covered with tears and she did not answer.
The Huaqing Palace was in a panic at this time, and the sinister look of Emperor Mingxi frightened everyone to the point of trembling.
The Queen Mother wished she could go find the imperial physician herself.
She and Emperor Mingxi wanted to take a look at Yan Chengyu but were blocked by the Queen. Listening to Yan Chengyu's increasingly weak crying, the Queen Mother could no longer bear it and was about to faint.
The emperor was also heartbroken. He did not dare to fight with the queen for the child, so he could only persuade her, "Hui Niang, give the child to me. Hold the child tightly."
