Chapter 50 Punishment, raising the flag

"The Emperor is blessed with great blessings and has given birth to a concubine."

The queen did not want Hui Bin to give birth to an heir smoothly, but fortunately the baby was a princess, not a prince.

Looking at Lady Li kneeling on the ground, the Queen couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and the smile in her eyes increased a bit.

All the concubines also hurriedly congratulated, saying: "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

The emperor saw that most of the concubines had smiles on their faces, and congratulated him sincerely on the birth of the princess. His eyes narrowed into slits, and his expression looked like a big festive orange cat.

"Su Peisheng, go and tell the Queen Mother that Concubine Hui has given birth to a fat princess for me."

The newly born baby inherited Mei Zhuang's advantages, and his skin is very white and tender, unlike when he was a child, who was dark, thin and small.

The emperor held the baby in his arms for a long time, until An Lingrong reminded Meizhuang to wake up and want to see the baby. Then he reluctantly put down the baby in his arms and handed it to the wet nurse next to him to take care of him in the bed.

Seeing this, the queen pointed at the palace maid and Lady Li on the ground, and said disappointedly: "Your Majesty, how should we deal with this lowly maid and Lady Li who intend to murder concubine Hui?"

At first glance, it seemed that the unlucky palace maid and noble lady had not been dealt with. The emperor frowned and suppressed his smile.

He didn't speak, but looked at An Lingrong, whose wound had been smeared with medicinal powder by hospital staff.

The queen's heart suddenly trembled. Could it be that the emperor wanted to hand over the power to deal with Li Gui and the maids to Concubine An?
Zhen Huan and Jing Bin looked at each other, and they immediately realized what the emperor's gaze towards An Bin meant.

However, Concubine Cao and Concubine Qi, who knew An Lingrong's methods, breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thought that they were lucky not to participate in this fight.

An Lingrong raised her head and stared at the emperor, subconsciously caressing her cheek with her left hand, and said, "Why does the emperor look at my concubine? It's just a minor injury, not worth mentioning."

The more he said this, the more guilty and uneasy the emperor felt.

If An Lingrong hadn't carried them into the bedchamber and found the palace maid hiding under the bed, whether Hui Bin could have successfully given birth was one thing, and whether she could have saved her life was another.

"This wretched maid almost ruined your face, concubine Hui and my daughter." The emperor said slowly to An Lingrong, "In your opinion, how should this wretched maid be dealt with."

This is an opportunity and a test.

An Lingrong did not hesitate and said decisively: "According to the palace regulations, it is a death penalty."

After a pause, An Lingrong continued: "But as a little palace maid, she must not have the guts to murder Sister Mei. There must be someone behind it. In my opinion, I should be tortured to find out who is behind it." "

Hearing this, the palace maid, who knew she was going to die, immediately knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing: "It was all ordered by noble Li. The previous Fuzi and today's concubine Hui were all taught by noble noble Li to do what they did. "

"You bitch, how dare you slander your master? Let me tear your mouth apart."

The frightened Li Guiren stretched out her nails, ready to tear the palace maid's mouth apart, but was suppressed by the attendants behind her, unable to move.

Just when the emperor was about to continue to interrogate the palace maid, the scar was opened by Li Guiren, and the clever Concubine Hua said bluntly: "Fuzi died of falling into the water, Hui Concubine was pushed into the water in Yikun Palace, and later because of her little The palace maid almost died in childbirth and died from the ice water, and it was all related to water."

"Aren't all these pieces of evidence not enough to show that Lady Li has sinister intentions? I believe that killing her on the spot with a cane is the only way to eliminate the unhealthy tendencies in the harem."

With a simple word, Concubine Hua blamed Li Gui for Zhou Ninghai's pushing Meizhuang into the water.

It is true that she framed Li Guiren, but this was also the result of Li Guiren's own fault.

Who allowed Li Guiren to kill Fuzi behind her back without saying a word to her, and to murder Hui Bin and the child in her belly today? Her mistakes revealed her scars.

Thinking of this, Concubine Hua became very angry. She looked fiercely at Li Guiren who was about to retort, and made a mouth shape that no one else could see but Li Guiren could see.

"Mother's family." Seeing Concubine Hua's mouth gesture, she originally thought of talking about the incident of concubine Hui falling into the water, but it was actually Zhou Ninghai who did it to concubine Li, who knelt on the ground in despair.

Then she made up her mind, kowtowed to the emperor and admitted her mistake, saying that all this was done by concubines, and hoped that the emperor would remember her past service and not involve her mother's family.

As soon as this statement came out, the crime of Li Gui and the palace maid could basically be concluded.

The emperor closed his eyes. Li Guiren's title was enough to prove how much he once loved the concubine kneeling on the ground.

It's just that the man in front of him couldn't withstand the test of time, intended to murder the woman he loved, and the child in his belly, and took the initiative to admit it. Then you can't blame him for being ruthless and not caring about his past feelings.

"A cheap servant will be killed with a stick, removed from the title, demoted to a promise, sent to the cold palace, and will be tried again at another day."

"But Concubine An was successful in rescuing Concubine Hui, and saved the heir. She was carried from the Han army flag to the Zhengbai flag among the Eight Banners of the Manchu people."

Everyone was shocked, but no one dared to touch the emperor's brow at this time.

However, everyone then thought that An Lingrong had not been given a surname anyway, and she was just a concubine. The emperor could lift her up as he pleased.

Therefore, no one spoke, only An Lingrong was thinking about what this sentence meant.

She remembered that the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty consisted of three parts, including the Eight Banners of Manchuria, the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and the Eight Banners of the Mongolia.

And the emperor's words decided the future of the three women at the same time.

While An Lingrong felt happy, she felt a sense of sadness in her heart for no reason.

This harem is really a place for eating people. If you want to live well, just protecting yourself is not enough.

Thinking of this, An Lingrong glanced at Zhen Huanjiao's beautiful face, then stretched out her hand to touch the face scratched by the palace maid, revealing a smile that no one else could see.

Shuhen Glue is ready to go online.

Because Meizhuang, who was lying on the bed, had experienced alternations of cold and heat, he developed a high fever as soon as he relaxed after giving birth.

The emperor left early after ordering the people from the Imperial Hospital to keep watch all night.

Followed closely by the queen, she pretended to be affectionate to appease the servants in the Meizhuang Palace, and taught other concubines not to imitate the sinner's jealousy of the concubine and the idea of ​​murder.

After everyone nodded to express their understanding, the queen left with satisfaction.

She came to the right place today. In addition to a loyal dog beside Concubine Hua, she also heard the loyal dog uncovering Concubine Hua's scars. It was really interesting.

The only pity is that Hui concubine gave birth to the princess. It is a pity that both mother and daughter did not die.

As soon as the queen left, the concubines who only maintained a superficial courtesy with Meizhuang also left one after another.

Zhen Huan originally wanted to chat with An Lingrong, because An Lingrong changed from a Han military flag woman to a Zhengbai flag.

The Zhengbai Banner is one of the top three flags among the Eight Banners. Although it ranks last, it is enough to prove the emperor's love for Linrong.

But An Lingrong didn't give Zhen Huan a chance. She greeted everyone for a while and left first with Jin Xi.
