Chapter 0688 Punishment
As soon as the fifth prince’s birthday was over, the fourth prince was about to go south.
However, the date is March 13th.
This is still half a month.
In the past half a month, the second round of the female pick has already started.
To be precise, the second round began on the day of entering the palace.
Logically speaking, the third round of reading was obtained after March 20. However, because of the empress dowager's instructions, the queen asked the emperor for instructions. The third round was ten days ahead of schedule, and the tenth day of the day was read.
Before the tenth day of the lunar month, whether it was a concubine or a concubine in the harem, someone was moved to invite the girls to come and have tea.
After all, this is also an unwritten rule.
Women in the harem age year by year. Every time a new person enters the palace, old people always fall out of favor.
For the sake of status, they will call the show girls they are optimistic about to show kindness, which means to win over.
There are also some beautiful girls who take the initiative to pay homage to the mountain and stand firmly.
On the sixth day of the third month, the second round of reading is over. If you have a bad sleeping condition or have some problems, you will be sent out in this round.
The remaining girls were half missing, three hundred and eighteen.
Here, after the third round of reading by the Queen Mother and the Queen, it will be reduced by half.
The rest is what the emperor wants to read in the end.
However, the Fourth Master obviously did not plan to read it in person, and he was about to leave at the thirteenth.
It was also on the sixth day of the lunar month that the empress dowager realized that the emperor was going south with his two young sons.
Of course I disagree, the child is so young.
She slapped the table: "It must be the instigation of Concubine Ming's charming son! Can such a young child go out? It would be fine if her own child doesn't feel sorry for her, but she also has to take the fourth prince to call the emperor. The Ai family will not agree!"
After hearing the message from the slaves from the Empress Dowager, the Fourth Master said lightly: "Tell the Empress Dowager that I have something to do today, so I won't go. Just say what I said. Although the two children have to go out for some experience. They all follow their own mothers, so I will tell the Empress Dowager not to worry."
Fu Xin dared not talk too much, so he hurriedly quit.
There was almost no need to think about it. The Empress Dowager could not see the Fourth Master, so she called Ye Zao over.
Ye Zao was very obedient and had no hope of getting up when he came in and knelt down.
Sure enough, the Queen Mother didn't shout.
"You are too bold and arrogant! It's not appropriate for you to go with the emperor, your own children are still young! You even instigated the emperor to take the children with you! You are with your own children and the fourth prince, what are you thinking?" the queen mother shouted sternly.
"When I say to the Empress Dowager, this is not what I mean. It is the Emperor's intention. I am wronged, wuwuwu." I cried as soon as I said I cried. It was amazing to deal with the Empress Dowager.
The Queen Mother was tired of watching it: "Shut up! The Ai family sees you are becoming more and more charming!"
"Come here, drag Concubine Ming out to beat twenty boards!" The empress dowager slapped the table.
For a moment, no one moved.
Ye Zao cried even more: "Empress Dowager, I'm wronged."
"You won't pull it out?" the queen mother said sternly.
Some servants come forward to pull him.
Ye Zao hated her heart, but she didn't contradict her face, but just hid: "Empress Dowager, please spare me, I'm really wronged."
Aunt Cai was so angry that she wanted to stop her but didn't dare. But if the empress dowager beat Concubine Ming, how could she explain this?
"Empress Dowager, Thirteen is about to go out. You beat me today. I will not be able to get better for a while, woo." Ye Zao reminded the Empress Dowager.
"Ai's family does not allow you to go!" The Empress Dowager glared.
"The Emperor is here!"
At this moment, the Fourth Master came.
When Fu Xin left at that time, he asked someone to invite Ye Zao to avoid her being asked by the emperor's mother.
But one step late, the Fourth Master changed his clothes and came over.
I saw this scene and became a big deal.
The Empress Dowager suddenly saw the Fourth Master and regretted it.
Even though he knew that this woman was the one he loved the most, it would be hard to say if he really beat her up.
"What's wrong?" The Fourth Master frowned, sat down, and did not ask Ye Zao to get up.
"Woooo, I am ignorant and made the Empress Dowager angry. I deserve to die." Ye Zao felt wronged.
The Fourth Master wanted to laugh, knowing that she cried so pitifully because the handkerchief was stained with something, but she still felt very distressed.
"What did you do? I made the emperor mom so angry?" The Fourth Master looked stern, looking really a filial son.
"Emperor, the Ai family asks you why you have to take your two children? Concubine Ming is ignorant. She said that you can't follow her!" The empress dowager felt relieved and hummed.
"So it's this." The Fourth Master looked at Ye Zao: "Why didn't you explain to the emperor's mother? Is it what I mean?"
Looking back, I looked at the empress dowager: "Isn't I called Fu Xin to pass the message? Dog slave, can't even explain a word?"
Fu Xin knelt down with a plop, not daring to say too much, just saying that the servant should die.
The queen mother's eyebrows hopped a few times, but she wanted to say something but couldn't say it.
"I realized that I was wrong, but when I was panicked, I forgot it." Ye Zao still said aggrievedly.
"Okay, why don't you retreat?" The Fourth Master frowned and waved his hand, as if he was very impatient.
Ye Zao hurriedly stood up: "I'm leaving."
The Queen Mother wanted to stay, but although it was impossible to beat the board, she left like that?
However, he didn't say anything after all.
After Ye Zao went out, the fourth master said, "Although Concubine Ming didn't say it clearly for a while, it would be ugly for the emperor to be punished like this. After all, she was Concubine and gave birth to the fifth prince, how could she do this?"
The Fourth Master didn't say this in front of Ye Zao, but he must say something behind his back.
Not only Ye Zao, but also no one can beat a slap in any position of noble people.
Even if you make a mistake, the mild ones will be confined to copy the scriptures, and the severe ones will be demoted.
If you hit the board, it means you are extremely disgusted with.
The Fourth Master must not ask Ye Zao to suffer this humiliation.
The Empress Dowager became angry at the moment: "The Ai family is the Empress Dowager, and it is not qualified to punish a little concubine?"
"The Empress Dowager is the Empress Dowager, so he is naturally qualified. But what did Concubine Ming do wrong? I like her, is it because the Empress Dowager is disliked? You humiliated her today, which is the fifth prince and I. Is the Empress Dowager apart?" The Fourth Master frowned.
The Empress Dowager was choked very much: "Emperor! That's just a noble concubine!"
"Mother Huang, I have decided on the tour. However, the summer is hot, and I originally wanted to send Mother Huang to Changchun Garden to escape the summer heat. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mother Huang will come back. What do you think about Mother Huang?" The Fourth Master skipped the topic directly.
The Empress Dowager's heart was shocked. She felt that the Fourth Master threatened her.
For a moment, I was angry and panicked.
I felt so hated Ye Zao in my heart.
"No need, the Ai family lives in the palace." The empress dowager put away her emotions and said.
The Fourth Master was a little confused, but nodded: "It's all right with the emperor. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
The Queen Mother nodded: "Don't be too tired either. Your health is important."
The Fourth Master nodded and stood up: "Son is leaving."
