erself, getting herself excited and making everyone else chuckle with amusement.Mrs. Li couldn't help but urge, "Funiu'er, Baozhu was terrified following you this time. Choose two things she likes, an...Even if it's a little ugly, it's still your own.
There's a reason why no mother wouldn't feel heartache for her child, and that applies to the Empress as well.
Besides, she had never liked the Princess Kang Le in the first place. So she ordered: "Lock up Princess Kang Le and wait until the princess recovers before dealing with her."
Then, she took her grandmother and carried the princess away.
The eunuchs and maidservants who had knelt on the ground finally dared to get up and look at Jiayin, who was innocent. Even though they were filled with remorse, they did not dare disobey the order.
Then, two palace maids stepped forward, each holding Jia Yin's arm, and led her to a small shed beside the imperial garden.
Jia Yin was pushed in and the door was locked.
A young eunuch ran to report to the chief eunuch. The palace maids, whether out of fear or wanting to find a head matron or someone like that for advice, also left.
In short, for a while, there wasn't even a ghost outside the tool shed.
Jiayin leaned against the window and looked out, letting out a cold snort.
No wonder they say the palace is both the wealthiest and darkest place in the world.
This person's heart, it's rotten to the core.
Several palace maids and eunuchs all knew she was "wronged", that the princess targeted her, and bullied her.
But just now, no one spoke a word of fairness.
The Empress was even more "interesting," she didn't ask anything, just hugged the princess and left.
It's said that they locked her up, waiting for the princess to recover before bringing her out to question her.
But since she didn't ask clearly, doesn't that mean you're accusing her of making a mistake
Indeed, prejudice is hereditary.
Behind every naughty child, there's a doting parent!
Thankfully, she's like an old cucumber painted green, not a real child. Otherwise, after being confined to the "small black room," she would definitely have psychological scars!
She glanced out the window again, making sure no one was around, then slipped into the space.
She was also thirsty and hungry after all the commotion.
So, she took two steaming meat buns from the front courtyard and devoured them in big bites. Then, she had a slice of watermelon and chomped on it as she strolled through the back garden.
Three cats were sprawled on the rocks, seemingly lazy. When their owner entered, they quickly scrambled forward and rubbed against his legs, displaying affection.
Jia Yin crouched down and tousled the fox's tails twice, then tapped its forehead with a playful scolding, "Are you really a fox spirit or not Can you just tell me straight!"
"If you were a fox spirit, after a few years, you'd transform into a handsome man and captivate that so-called Third Princess completely. Then, abandon her cruelly and give me some satisfaction!"
The little fox didn't know if it understood, shook its three tails, and rolled directly onto the ground.
Jia Yin's heart was pounding with excitement, she thought she was about to witness the fox spirit transforming into a human in all its glory.
As a result, the little fox rolled up and then sprang up onto the tree, its tail directly hitting the hanging cage.
The poor little green snake, once again became a spinning top, involuntarily whirling around at a rapid pace.
Jiyin was extremely disappointed. She threw the melon rind in her hand at the little fox and scolded, "Idiot, where is the handsome man you promised What's the point of bullying Xiaolu"
The little fox was mistaken, thinking that its master had also joined in the game. It jumped around even more, making the cage spin almost into a blur.
The poor little green snake, if it could only speak, would surely cry out, “Master, what are you doing coming in here! Let this stupid fox just laze around, wouldn't that be better, wouldn’t it”
Jiayin was simply unable to face this silly fox and this unlucky snake, so she went to the pigpen and chicken coop to do some work. As she turned her head, she saw the rabbit family, which had grown much larger again, and decisively dodged out.
My heart aches...
In the Kunning Palace, three imperial physicians were surrounding the princess, carefully examining her.
But the princess's pulse was normal, her cries were strong, and she showed no signs of injury. There was simply no indication that she was ill.
But the princess just said her stomach hurt!
Three imperial physicians were so flustered that they broke out in a cold sweat, wishing they could pull out their hair.
At this time, the emperor himself arrived, and the three imperial physicians hurriedly knelt down to the side.
"What on earth is going on Why does the Third Princess have a stomachache Did she eat something bad" The Emperor opened his mouth and asked, clearly unaware of the circumstances.
The third princess, seeing her father come over personally, was somewhat delighted. She sat up and cried out, "Father, my stomach hurts! That Li Jiayin beat me, woo woo, Father, give me justice!"
The Empress also wore a look of heartache, like a doting mother. She sighed and said: "The Princess thought she had a playmate and I took her to the garden. Who would have thought that child was wild and unruly, actually hurting the Princess!"
The emperor frowned, unwilling to believe it at first, "Impossible, Fu Niuer is a well-behaved child..."
"Father, she's the one bullying me! She even said that I wear the same dress as her and called me... ugly!" The Third Princess, afraid her father wouldn't believe her, jumped down and tugged at her skirt, wanting to show it to him.
The emperor didn't look at her skirt, but asked, "Aren't you having a stomachache"
The Third Princess instinctively covered her stomach and said in surprise, "Oh my, why isn't it hurting anymore!"
The Emperor's face darkened, and he turned to the three imperial physicians, "Can you tell me why the princess is experiencing abdominal pain"
Three imperial physicians' hearts felt like they had eaten bitter yellow gentian root, their faces contorted in misery.
The princess was perfectly healthy, so how could they say otherwise.
To be honest, the princess was envious.
If you do not tell the truth, the emperor will punish you.
Lastly, the oldest imperial physician replied: “Your Majesty, the princess must have caught a chill in the garden earlier. Her stomach is feeling some gas and pain. Now that Your Majesty has arrived, the princess is happy and… well, it’s subsided a bit.”
How astute the Emperor is, he could surely hear the implication behind those words: the princess was feigning illness!
His face darkened even further. He waved his hand, dismissing the imperial physician, then roared, “What’s going on Someone explain it to me! If none of you can figure it out, then none of you deserve to live!”
The palace maids and eunuchs immediately knelt down!
The eunuchs and maidservants who had been following behind Jia Yin and the princess were mostly from Kunning Palace, but the eunuchs were all from the Imperial Study.
Seeing the Emperor's fury, a eunuch with ambitions for power took the plunge.
He crawled forward and truthfully recounted the princess and the noblewoman's conversation, including how the princess tugged on the noblewoman's braid, causing herself to fall as well.
But the bad thing is that in this pragmatic approach!
Because everyone heard, saw that the princess used her skirt to bully the county princess. The county princess wanted to leave, but the princess pulled the county princess's braid, and with too much force, she fell herself. Then she said her stomach hurt and framed the county princess…
The Third Princess paled, trying to defend herself, “No, it was her who made me fall! It's only after I fell that my stomach started hurting!”
The Empress felt uneasy and regretted a little that she hadn't asked more questions before making the decision.
Right now she needed to make up some excuses, but the Emperor wouldn't give her a chance.
The Emperor looked coldly at the Third Princess and said, "Well, you say that County Princess Kangle bullied you, then where is County Princess Kangle Call her here so you two can confront each other!"
No one wanted to hear the rest. The grand hall fell back into an eerie silence.
The Emperor was somewhat puzzled, and turning to clear things up, stood up directly and questioned the Empress: "What have you done to County Princess Kangle"
The Empress quickly replied, "Your Majesty, please calm down. No matter what I do, I would never punish a child. I just... I just had someone take Lady Kang Le to rest! This servant will have someone bring Lady Kang Le back immediately!"
"No need, I shall go myself!" The emperor stood up directly, looking at the empress, his eyes clearly showing disappointment. "As the mother of a nation, the empress should be wise and kind, dignified and respectful. But today, the empress actually vented her anger on a child, I am truly disappointed!"
Having said that, he left, raising his foot to step out the door. He left behind the pale-faced Empress, truly wondering if she was regretting it or angry…in was worried that someone might cause trouble on the road and wanted Shui Ling to go with her, but Tao Hongying refused.Jia Yin stood at the doorstep, blowing in the biting autumn wind. She remained...
