Chapter 52

"presumptuous!"

"Ai's family is the Queen Mother!" Empress Dowager Cui scolded with eyes wide open, "Who dares to stop Ai's family!"

Ci'an Palace was in chaos again, the guards outside the palace were already accustomed to the scene in the palace, and it was only fun to have a scene every day.

On the other hand, Si Ningchi was very surprised by the people sent by the emperor, but she really didn't expect that the dog emperor could be so caring?
Jiang Nanny is an old man in the palace, and she was the maid who served the Empress Yuan at the beginning. She is very clear about the accounts in the palace. With the help of Jiang Nanny, Si Ningchi can check the accounts even more It is much easier to do more with less, and it is precisely because the emperor personally sent the person, so there is no need to worry about using it.

You can use it boldly, if it is sent by someone else, you have to guard against being tricked!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Si Ningchi also met with the female officials from the Third Division and Six Bureaus in Fengwu Palace. He was suffocating earlier, thinking that the empress must have only a half-knowledge of the palace affairs when she first took charge of the palace, so it would be good to be fooled casually. Fortunately, I checked the account in front of them and pointed to the vital point.

In Fengwu Palace, all the eunuchs who played the board took turns to work. They worked from morning to night, and none of the bad debts escaped.

The little eunuch who was squatting outside the wall of Fengwu Palace felt that his buttocks were starting to ache after hearing the sound of the board being beaten all day.

The Empress is really ruthless in punishing people...

It doesn't matter who is behind you, even the emperor's own female official is useless, if you make a mistake, you will be beaten!

Today's beating has really blown the harem to pieces. They have been working in this palace for many years, so who doesn't have something greedy?
Not to mention those small favors, the empress is so strict now, it really makes them suffer, I am afraid that the empress will investigate further, if it is found out that the bribery is not only in the harem, but also involves the former officials, that is true ...

"Concubine De, you must save your slaves!" Wei Shanggong knelt in front of Concubine De and cried loudly, begging Concubine De for help.

"Don't cry, crying Bengong is upset." Concubine De naturally heard about the queen's punishment, she frowned impatiently and said: "It's just a few boards, it can be a big deal."

Wei Shanggong was even more sad when he heard that he was crying, and looked at Concubine De with some despair, and said, "The empress is only checking the account today, and she will reconcile the account tomorrow, slave... slave..."

Wei Shanggong hesitated to speak, his tone was full of panic, Concubine De frowned and stared at Wei Shanggong and said: "How many clean accounts are there in this palace? What are you afraid of?"

Concubine De looked down at her and said: "After all, you were brought up by this palace. The empress just wants to show her prestige. There is no shortage of people with small favors and small favors. At most, you will be punished by a few boards, and it will be a little bit worse." It's a punishment of demotion, as long as I'm a Concubine De, there will always be time for you to climb up again."

"The concubine De concubine is grateful for her kindness and servants, but..." Wei Shanggong swallowed his saliva and said cautiously: "If the crime is not enough to be punished by demotion, what should we do?"

"..." Concubine De's expression was suffocated, and seeing Wei Shanggong suddenly opened her eyes, she stared at her and said angrily: "What did you say? Who did you receive favor from!?"

"Concubine De, the servant girl knew it was wrong! The servant girl was fascinated by the treasure for a while. Mr. Fan just wanted the servant girl to take care of his niece and send some family letters outside the palace. The servant girl thought that this is not a difficult task and responded It's off, who knows..." The more Wei Shanggong said, the paler Concubine De's face became.

"You, are you impatient to live!?" Concubine De suddenly stood up from her chair, stared at Wei Shanggong and said, "How dare the harem give and receive privately with foreign ministers!?"

"It's all for you to give and receive in private, you, how dare you pass the news out of the palace!" Concubine De was out of breath, pointing at Wei Shanggong with trembling fingers: "You can't find death!? Can't you fall?" Well, it is a serious crime of conspiracy and treason!"

Wei Shanggong was frightened and crawled to De Concubine's feet and cried: "The servant is also temporarily obsessed, begging the concubine De to save the servant, the slave will definitely not dare in the future, the only slave is you! "

Concubine De stretched out her hand to cover her chest, looking at Wei Shanggong who was kneeling and crying, she just felt her heart go cold.

"If it's something else, I can still intercede for you." Concubine De looked down at Wei Shanggong and said, "But you have committed a crime, even I can't ask for a way out!"

"The emperor's most taboo is the harem's meddling in politics, and he cannot tolerate the harem's affair with the courtiers." Concubine De slowly shook her head and said: "If you are smart, you should let yourself go clean, don't leave any authority for others to control. "

"Not for yourself, but think about your younger brother who is going to take the scientific examination this year." Concubine De sighed softly, looked at Wei Shanggong and said, "If it is because of you, not only will I kill myself, but your younger brother Ke will also be implicated." Expelled from the exam is the one who should regret it."

Wei Shanggong felt chills all over his body when he heard Concubine De's words, and his last hope was completely wiped out, she...

She sat slumped on the ground with a dazed expression, the tears in her eyes could not flow, and now she realizes the remorse. Back then, the Third Division of the Controlling Hegemony felt that no one would dare to provoke her, and she did not take these small things to heart when she acted ostentatiously. If you are a little more cautious, you won't make such a big mistake!
"I can't do anything about it, you can ask for more blessings." Concubine De threw such a sentence at Wei Shanggong and sent her out.

Standing outside the Yuning Palace, Wei Shanggong felt a little shaky, and he didn't know where he was going after walking a few steps. When he raised his eyes, he saw a noble person walking in front of him. Wei Shanggong quickly restrained his expression and stood beside him with his head bowed Bow sideways to make way.

She was originally wandering, but suddenly stopped when she saw the person in front of her: "But Wei Shanggong?"

Wei Shanggong recovered his senses and raised his eyes, and saw that the person standing in front of him was none other than Yi Zhaorong from Liu Yuexuan.

"My servant has seen Yi Zhaorong." Wei Shanggong bowed his head slightly in salute.

"Wei Shanggong looks unwell, but encountered a difficult problem?" Yi Zhaorong asked warmly with a smile.

Wei Shanggong forced a smile, but didn't say anything. In her opinion, even the concubine De concubine couldn't do anything about it. What can she do with a little Zhaorong?

Yi Zhaorong was not dissatisfied with Wei Shanggong's demeanor, but instead smiled softly and said: "I don't know what trouble Wei Shanggong encountered, but I just want to remind Wei Shanggong that sometimes you might as well be a little bolder." .”

"Nowadays the empress is in charge of this palace, so you have to ask for someone in the right place." Yi Zhaorong smiled, but the words he said struck her mind like a thunderbolt.

"There is a saying, put it to death and then live."

Looking at the back of Yi Zhaorong Shi Shiran, Wei Shang woke up suddenly, and suddenly burst out with a strong desire to survive. Maybe this is really life?
