Chapter 518 Beloved Concubine (46)
Xie Yanjing was quite unconvinced.
Just have something to eat?
What about my own money and delicacies? Can’t you just eat whatever you want?
The kitchen was so far away from here and she didn't even smell anything. How could Xie Qingchen smell it?
He must be talking nonsense to make the Holy Emperor feel dissatisfied with the Xie family.
If Your Majesty is alienated from the Xie family because of this, it means that Your Majesty also has a slight problem.
In this case, Xie Yanjing said: "Sister must have heard it wrong. How could my father and mother be so extravagant and wasteful?"
Xie Yanjing still didn't dare to have the courage to say what she was thinking.
Hong Li also hoped that this matter would be revealed soon: "Your Majesty is so considerate of the people. My husband has always felt that Your Majesty is a virtuous and sage king, so he ordered us ladies to follow suit and never be extravagant and wasteful. The front yard is separated from the The back kitchen is far away, there are mixed smells along the way, the empress must have smelled it wrong."
The clever servant has already rushed to the back kitchen to inform them that they have dealt with it, and she just needs to wait a little longer.
Xie Qingshen also saw a maid going to the back kitchen.
However, he didn't want to go to the back kitchen.
I heard that when His Majesty dealt with the officials who committed crimes at Yushitai at Jianzhantai, he struck down several thunderbolts.
Xie Qingchen took two steps and said, "Mom is joking. This matter can't be careless. Otherwise, I swear to God, I will say that my mother is sure that Xie Mansion is not acting against the will and is being extremely luxurious even though she knows that there is a drought in the three states of Dongchuan." .”
Hong Li's eyelids twitched.
swear?
Who would dare to swear at will when thunder fell on a sunny day at the Supervisory Tower?
Got rid of that thing, but has this been done?
Xie Lanru stood up and said: "Sister, you are also the daughter of the Xie family. Don't you still know how your father and mother are? Why should you criticize your mother so harshly? As a daughter, you have a reason to be filial."
Xie Qingchen retorted unhurriedly: "Sister, what are you saying? Why have I ever criticized my mother so harshly? The king of heaven and earth is a father, son and mother. I am your majesty's concubine. My aunt often teaches me that as a woman, The husband is the heaven, not to mention, the husband of this palace is the emperor."
"Putting His Majesty first and obeying the holy orders is what I and every minister should do. I believe that my mother would not do such a thing. I may have heard it wrong. Believe in father, how can mother be enough, His Majesty has to believe, at this juncture, how can you handle it lightly?"
"What's more, I swear to the sky, your majesty is the sky, this is the time to show your loyalty, how can you be harsh? Sister said yes or no?"
Once these words came out, it was difficult for Hong Li not to swear.
Shirking has actually become a problem.
People, regardless of gender, will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
The official on the supervisory platform was struck by lightning after swearing. Even if they didn't see it with their own eyes, they heard a lot of people talking about it.
Xie Lanru's heart skipped a beat, she hesitated, then knelt down and said, "Mother, it's Ru'er's fault. It's Ru'er who is greedy. She disobeyed mother's orders and secretly asked the cook to make food for me. Please punish her severely."
Xie Lanru took the initiative to take over everything and put Hong Li in the position of an uninformed person.
Hong Li followed the trend and couldn't believe it and felt ashamed: "Ru'er! How does mother teach you on weekdays? Why are you so confused? The ancestral hall punishes you by kneeling down and copying Buddhist scriptures for a month, so you can repent."
Xie Lanru kowtowed a few times: "Yes, mother."
When leaving, he cast a resentful look at Xie Qingchen.
Xie Qingchen didn't care at all, and even wanted to laugh, loudly.
How had he ever seen Xie Lanru like this!
resentment?
