Chapter 276 The Queen's Partiality
The hall was completely silent. To be honest, the Queen was biased.
But what can be done? Although Madam Jiang felt that the Queen's treatment of Fang Liangdi was unfair.
But in the face of supreme power, she was like an ant and had no say at all.
Seeing this, Nanny Jiang did not back down. She thought it would be feasible to take this opportunity to give the Crown Princess some eye drops.
So, Nanny Jiang spoke up.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"explain."
Queen Qin nodded and still gave some face to the prince's wet nurse.
*
"Well, reporting to the Queen, the Crown Prince has left. The Crown Princess has issued a ban in the inner courtyard of the East Palace, requiring everyone in the inner courtyard to be vegetarian and pray for the Crown Prince.
I would be willing to become a vegetarian for the rest of my life if I could pray for the prince's safety.
But the two young masters in Yiqiu Courtyard couldn't do that. After all, they were still young and their bodies didn't allow it.
I, the old servant, hereby boldly ask the Queen to show mercy and allow the two young masters to eat some meat."
After saying this, Nanny Jiang kowtowed.
"Are you talking nonsense?"
The Crown Princess did not expect that Nanny Jiang would expose this matter. She glared at Nanny Jiang and almost jumped up in rage.
"What did you say?"
At the same time, Queen Qin's surprised voice sounded.
Seeing the Crown Princess' desperate look, Queen Qin was filled with anger and shouted angrily,
"Zhao Yaxue, is this what you are capable of? My two little grandchildren haven't had any meat to eat these days?
You...you disappoint me so much!"
The Queen Qin's furious look frightened the Crown Princess so much that she dared not argue anymore. She kowtowed and said aggrievedly,
"Aunt, I was wrong. I will let them both eat meat when I get back."
Hearing this, Queen Qin pointed at her and cursed.
"Get out! Get out of here right now. Cough, cough, cough..."
*
Zhao Yaxue was so frightened that she started shaking all over.
When her wet nurse, Nanny Yun, saw that the Empress was really angry, she was so frightened that she kowtowed and apologized.
"Queen, calm down. The Crown Princess knows she's wrong! Go back and correct it immediately."
He kowtowed, got up, walked forward, and dragged the reluctant Crown Princess out.
After watching the Crown Princess leave, Concubine Zhang didn't dare to stay any longer. After kowtowed tremblingly, she retreated in disgrace.
When Li Liangdi, Lu Liangyuan and the other two saw this, they kowtowed hurriedly and then left in fear.
*
Queen Qin held her forehead with one hand and watched the few people leave in a hurry with cold eyes, feeling even more disappointed.
He glanced at Fang Qingge and Nanny Jiang, and said with a relaxed expression,
"If you have any problems in the future, please come to me! Don't let my two little grandchildren suffer any injustice."
Nanny Jiang replied,
"Well, I've made note of it."
"Alright! You guys should leave too!"
Queen Qin also waved to Fang Qingge and her servant.
"Yes," the two of them also said goodbye and left Kunning Palace.
*
The inner hall suddenly became quiet.
When Queen Qin saw that everyone had left, she slowly spoke to Madam Liu,
"I really did make a mistake back then! No wonder the prince is unhappy. Look at what kind of people I chose for him?! Hey!"
Aunt Liu quickly offered a glass of water and said,
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess and the others are still young. Although the Crown Prince didn't like them at first, wasn't there always peace in the inner courtyard?!
Now, Fang Liangdi suddenly entered the palace with her child, completely disrupting the balance in the inner courtyard of the Eastern Palace.
It is inevitable that the Crown Princess and the others have resentment. After you gave them a lesson this time, they should know the severity of the situation and should calm down for a while."
"I hope so! To be honest, I feel sorry for my brainless niece after what happened today!
It's a bit biased and unbalanced, and Fang Liangdi is wronged.
Actually, I also had the intention to test him. Fang Qingge is also a patient person.
Didn't you see that she didn't say a word from beginning to end?
He watched the women's performance with a cold look, as if he had already guessed that I would punish them lightly.
I am also contradictory!
On one side is his own son, and on the other side is his own niece.
Now there is another Fang Qingge, who has given birth to a child for the prince.
Alas! I can’t see what the future of the East Palace will be like! "
The Queen sighed again.
"My lady, please stop worrying! Go and have a rest!"
"Um,"
Queen Qin said nothing more and slowly walked into the bedroom with the help of Nanny Liu.
*
After a storm,
The inner courtyard of the Eastern Palace became quiet for the time being.
It had been more than 20 days since the prince left. Fang Qingge made a note of everything in his little notebook and looked at the two letters he had received.
There are only four words, "Be safe and don't worry." No more words are written.
Fang Qingge helplessly guessed in her heart that the prince must be too busy to reply!
She lived comfortably during this period because no one dared to cause trouble.
The Crown Princess tried to turn a blind eye to it and changed the morning and evening visits to once a week. The inner court was peaceful for a while.
*
On this day,
Early in the morning, Xiao Huajiao got up and pestered Fang Qingge to go to the Imperial Garden to see the flowers.
"Mom, I'll just be gone for a little while! The flowers I picked last time were all stepped on and broken.
This time, my brother and I must pick the most beautiful peony flower for our mother.
One for the great-grandmother. One for the great-grandmother. One for myself."
My younger sister Xiao Huajiao pointed at her chubby little fingers and muttered to herself.
Brother Xiao Bajiao also stepped forward and pulled Fang Qingge's sleeve and begged,
"Mom, can you let us go play for a while? My sister and I both want to go play."
"You guys! You forgot the pain after the wound healed. You forgot how much you cried when you were stung by a poisonous bee?"
Fang Qingge didn't want the two of them to go.
"Mother, Xiaodouzi said that there are no poisonous bees in the Imperial Garden anymore! Should I go? Should my brother and I go?!"
As he spoke, he took Fang Qingge's hand and shook it continuously.
*
Nanny Jiang looked at the two pitiful little children and said to Fang Qingge,
"Fang Liang Di, just let the babies go! This is a good thing. At least the two children are not afraid to go to that place because they were stung by poisonous bees. Besides, the Queen Mother has allowed them to come and go freely."
Fang Qingge was so overwhelmed by the shaking of the two children that he said helplessly,
"Madam Jiang, the prince is not in the palace now. I don't want the babies to be too ostentatious and cause any more trouble."
"Mother~"
"Mother~"
The two children became anxious when they heard this.
"Okay! Okay! I really can't do anything with you two. After dinner, I'll take you two out. We'll just play for a while, and you're not allowed to make any loud noises."
"Ahhh, let's go pick flowers!"
Hearing that her mother agreed, her younger sister Xiao Huajiao jumped up, holding her brother's hand. She didn't care about the order not to make loud noises.
*
The senior palace maid Haitang said with a smile,
"Master, I feel that all the children in the entire palace combined are not as smart and lively as our two little masters!"
"Yep."
Kapok also nodded in agreement.
The two wet nurses were grinning and laughing secretly, feeling extremely proud.
