Chapter 212 Punishment
The people in Kunning Palace had already informed the Ministry of Internal Affairs that the spices were gone earlier, and asked them to buy them as soon as possible. They had to wait until the spices were exhausted before purchasing them in a leisurely manner.

These kinds of spices are difficult to match. It is Yanxiazhai. The quantity made each time is limited, and all of them are reserved for the queen. Now this box is gone, and there is no stock in the palace. Tonight, How should the queen sleep peacefully?
Suo Xiang looked at the box with a clean red sandalwood box, and said to Lu Xiang who was making the bed: "What should I do?"

Such dirty things can never be used by the empress again, Lu Xiang made the bed, walked over, looked at the box, then looked at Pianruo who was prostrate on the ground, and said in a rather displeased tone: " The Ministry of Internal Affairs is getting worse and worse at picking people now, why would anyone dare to take it back? This matter can only be left to the empress to decide, and it is up to the empress to decide how to deal with it."

The main hall and the sleeping hall were not far apart. Di Mohan had dinner with the queen and was talking in the main hall when he heard movement in the sleeping hall from a distance.

The queen raised her hand and said to Sister Qiurong beside her, "Go and have a look."

Sister Qiurong answered "Yes", then exited the main hall and came to the sleeping hall, her face was a bit cold.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally came into the palace, and he was talking with the empress. You are here, making a lot of noise, disturbing the empress's joy, how decent is it?"

Eunuch Chen leaned forward and said to Sister Qiurong: "Mother, this little hoof has sprinkled all the incense that the mother wants to use. What do you think should be done?"

Lu Xiang also came, and waited viciously for the few people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who were kneeling on the ground, their eyes were full of resentment: "I don't know how the Ministry of Internal Affairs handles things. These things are more and more annoying every time. Come on, your head is windy, these days are better, and the incense is gone. You also know that at Yanxiazhai, this kind of spice is not easy to make. It takes ten days to prepare all the ingredients, and it needs to be smoked. It doesn't take half a month, and the next batch will not be produced no matter what, if you don't punish this girl severely today, the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs will really treat us as a bully in Kunning Palace."

Incense spilled?

Sister Qiurong snorted coldly: "This is a big deal, you little hoof, follow me to see the empress, it's all up to the empress, whether you live or die depends on your own destiny."

After Madam Qiu Rong finished speaking, she raised her hand, and two young eunuchs came in from the door, one on the left and the other on the right, and lifted Pian Ruo to the main hall.

Pianruo was so frightened that her face paled with tears, and when she saw the queen for the first time, she pinned herself on the ground and trembled.

"what happened?"

The queen was obviously disturbed, took the teacup from Di Mohan's hand, and took a sip, a trace of anger appeared on her graceful and gorgeous face like a peony.

Qiurong blessed the queen, and glanced dissatisfiedly at Pianruo who was kneeling and trembling: "Your Majesty, this little girl overturned all the spices she bought, and you know about the spices. Inside, I'm afraid not."

Sure enough, the queen frowned when she heard the words.

"This Mr. An is becoming more and more perfunctory in his work. Anyone who dares to come to my palace to ask for it, is it true that this palace is easy to bully?"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. It's slaves who have rough hands and feet. It has nothing to do with Mr. An. If you want to be beaten or punished, your servants will bear it. Please don't blame others."

Juan Ruo still buried his head, making his expression hard to see.

Di Mohan looked at her thin back, thoughtfully.

"Heh, she is a girl who values ​​love and righteousness. It's a pity that this love was misused and turned into a life-threatening knife."

"This servant is terrified and has no intention of offending the empress. However, although the incense cannot be replenished in a short period of time, the servant knows an ancestral massage technique. If the empress does not dislike it, the servant is willing to try it. If it is effective, the servant will die. It is not a pity to die, so I ask your mother to spare everyone in the House of Internal Affairs."

"Oh? The ancestral massage technique?"

The queen sneered, "I have suffered from headaches for many years, and I have invited many doctors for acupuncture and massage, but they have not improved. You are just a low-ranking court lady, how dare you speak nonsense in front of me?"

Di Mohan's eyes finally moved away from Pianruo's body, looked at the queen, and said in a refined voice, "Queen mother, since the incense is gone, it is useless for you to kill her, it is better to let her Give it a try, if it’s useless, it’s never too late to kill.”

After listening to Di Mohan's words, the queen finally let go, "Forget it, since the prince has said so, then I will allow you to live one more night."

Pianruo was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, Empress Empress and His Royal Highness, for not killing me. This servant will definitely go all out."

After a few more chats with the queen, Di Mohan got up and left.

Living in the deep palace and being in a high position, as a queen, even going to bed is extremely complicated.

Remove the wind cannon and gold hairpin, take a bath and change clothes, burn incense and pray, and when she really goes to bed, it is Haishi, the second watch has passed, and the queen can be regarded as lying on the couch safely.

It was fragrant tonight, it was the incense from the goose pear tent that the queen used to burn.

It's just that the queen didn't seem to sleep well.

Pianruo really knows how to massage, but to be on the safe side, she also used some illusion to bless her.

She transferred Wuye's mind-reading skills to herself, read the most desired picture in the queen's heart, and then used illusion to create an extremely wonderful dream for the queen.

Massage is only an aid to sleep, and when half asleep, it is the time when the illusion is most likely to succeed.

After a while, the queen fell into the dream that Pianruo created for her.

It was the first time in many years that she slept so peacefully as a light sleeper. Even the incense provided by Yanxiazhai had never allowed her to sleep so peacefully.

The other people in the House of Internal Affairs had already been sent back, and Pianruo was by the queen's couch, and when it was midnight, there was only the little eunuch who kept watch at the door of the bedroom, except for the lock incense in the room.

The patrolling guards, because they are outsiders, are not allowed to enter the bedroom without permission, and can only patrol outside the Kunning Palace. Although those secret guards in the dark, they protect the safety of these masters relentlessly for twelve hours a day, but in the end The powerful people guarded Di Tianlin's surroundings, and there were quite a few around the queen, but Pianruo and Zi Yan, before sneaking into the palace, had already known in advance when these people would change their guards.

Pian Ruo counted the time, guessing that when Zi Yan was about to sneak in, she cast an illusion spell to stun Suo Xiang and the little eunuch, and as soon as the two fell down, Zi Yan stepped on the spot and entered the bedroom.
