The moon is full and the people in the west building have not yet returned

The next day it was announced that the prime minister's wife would enter the palace, and the mother and daughter closed the door and talked for two hours before Madam Xia left.

For several days in a row, Xiao Jianzhang and Liu Linger played harmoniously with each other, and Xia Ruolan didn't show any signs of affection.

The palace gate was closed all day, and another day later, Xia Ruolan's palace servant went to the imperial study to get Xia Ruolan's supplements, and ran into the palace servant of the noble concubine Liu Ling'er, and the two argued about the order. slap.

Less than an hour after the incident, Liu Ling'er went to the Empress Dowager crying, and the Empress Dowager personally went to Xia Ruolan Palace to question her.

Xia Ruolan lowered her head and lowered her eyes the whole time without making any distinctions. The queen mother still couldn't get over her anger, and mentioned Xia Xiang and Xia Muchu brothers again, "Your Xia family is kind to the emperor, so you can run amok? This world belongs to the emperor, not Xia's family." world."

Just as he was being reprimanded, Xiao Jianzhang entered with his hands behind his back, and the queen mother immediately told the emperor about the dispute, and deliberately added fuel to point out that Xia Ruolan's palace was bullying others.

Xiao Jianzhang's face darkened, and after the queen mother finished speaking, he continued calmly: "Such an unruly servant, why stay in the palace, you can't teach the master badly, and punish her to do odd jobs in the servant's room!"

Only then did Xia Ruolan raise her head and glance at Xiao Jianzhang, her voice was cold and clear: "I beg the emperor to spare her, it's because the concubine is not strict in discipline, if Long Live punishes the concubine, punish the concubine!"

Before Xiao Jianzhang could speak, the Empress Dowager rushed forward and said, "What are you talking about? Threatening the emperor through pregnancy?"

"The concubine dare not, it's just that this maid is used by the concubine, and it's all the concubine's fault. The concubine will definitely discipline her well, so that such a thing will not happen!"

"Don't you dare? I think you did it on purpose. You don't rule strictly and even protect your servants. How can such a queen be an example to others in the harem?"

Xia Ruolan didn't make any further distinctions but knelt down slowly, "Long live, it's all my concubine's fault, please be kind to me!"

She knelt on the ground with great difficulty, and Wang Shanxi behind Xiao Jianzhang hurried forward to help her. Xiao Jianzhang's eyes darkened: "For the sake of the queen, I will spare her this time, but the rules in the palace cannot be broken. All the palace servants who are fighting will be dragged down, and each will be hit with thirty sticks to make an example to others!"

After saying that, the two eunuchs came up to drag Xia Ruolan's palace servants away, Liu Linger was secretly happy at first, until the eunuchs came to drag her palace servants again, she realized something was wrong.

Before he wanted to say something, Xiao Jianzhang got up and left with his sleeves swung.

The two palace servants were dragged to the place of execution, and after being beaten with thirty sticks, Liu Linger's palace servant was killed on the spot, while Xia Ruolan's palace servant was helped back.

Her confidant maid was beaten to death and Liu Ling'er hated her to the extreme. She thought it must be Xia Ruolan's fault, so she went to complain to the queen mother, and specifically told about Xia Ruolan's relationship with the deposed prince Xiao Qingye before, "I heard that the queen had a relationship with the emperor before she married the emperor. The deposed prince stayed alone for five days and five nights, and he was already unclean when he returned to the palace."

He also said that the Xia family held the military power, and Xia Xiang’s words in the court hall echoed everywhere, and it was another Su Xiang. Liu Linger’s embellished words made the queen mother very unhappy. What follows the above-mentioned behavior.

The queen mother became more and more flustered as she thought about it. No way, the Xia family had already become a climate, and she couldn't let it go, so she talked to Xiao Jianzhang about it.

Xiao Jianzhang frowned: "I have my own ideas about these matters, and the Queen Mother doesn't have to worry about them."

"How can I not worry about it? Prime Minister Su's lessons learned are here. That Xia family is not chaste, and she is pregnant again..."

"Queen Mother, the queen's child is mine."

Seeing Xiao Jianzhang's affirmation, the queen mother was a little unhappy, "But I heard that on the day of Xiao Qingye's death, the queen once burned paper money in the palace to remember Xiao Qingye."

"What? Seriously?" Xiao Jianzhang suddenly became unhappy.

"If you don't believe me, you can go to the plum blossom tree to see the paper money that Xia Ruolan brought to burn with her close servants. It is said that she cried for a long time."

Xiao Jianzhang thought for a while, and it was true that Xiao Qingye's death day was just a few days ago, he frowned, "I know about this, the queen is pregnant, let's talk about it later."

Seeing that Xiao Jianzhang was reluctant to punish Xia Ruolan, the Queen Mother became more and more unhappy. When she returned to the palace, she met Xia Ruolan, looked at Xia Ruolan, thought of her unclean body, and was domineering and domineering over the emperor. The Queen Mother asked people to stop and find fault with Xia Ruolan .

Xia Ruolan didn't expect that she would bear it no matter how hard she endured. Everyone bullied her. She is really useless as a queen. When she heard the Queen Mother accuse her of being unclean, Xia Ruolan couldn't bear it anymore, "Since the empress thinks that the concubine If you are not worthy to be the empress, please ask the emperor to take the position of concubine and concubine as empress, and put the concubine into limbo!"

The queen mother was beaten to death by her words, Xia Ruolan ignored her and went back to the bedroom.

In the afternoon, the palace servants hurried in to report: "Your Majesty, there are rumors everywhere in the palace, all saying that your Majesty is not chaste and unclean, and the identity of the prince in her belly is unknown. This servant is really angry and came back to report to your Majesty."

"I know!" Xia Ruolan's face turned pale. Who else in the harem can spread rumors like this except the Queen Mother?

Xiao Jianzhang can't be relied on, the queen mother is so aggressive, and she has stains, I'm afraid the days will become more and more difficult in the future.
