After His Majesty's rebirth, he personally taught the queen to abuse the scumbag

Cheng Mingran nodded, then walked towards her seat.

The concubines who were talking just now also shut their mouths, and the ladies below didn't say anything at all.

The queen looked at the situation in front of her, then smiled and said, "Now that everyone is here, let's prepare the banquet." She said.

"Her Majesty Shufei is just the same as always. She is so late for such a banquet. She really makes people wait for a long time." The speaker was Yun Chongyi.

Ever since she was punished for causing trouble for Cheng Mingran last time, she still feels resentful about it. (Zhi Lu Chapter 11)

"Yes, today is such an important day and yet Concubine Shu is late. She is worthy of being raised by the Empress Dowager. She is so confident that she even dares to ignore the Empress." This time it was Concubine Lin who spoke.

Cheng Mingran just listened to these people talking to each other, but she didn't react at all. However, in the eyes of everyone, her behavior seemed to indicate fear and intimidation.

Could it be that this trip to the cold palace really made her temper dull? Now she doesn't even dare to talk back? You know, Cheng Mingran used to be lawless in the palace because she had the support of the Empress Dowager.

just now……

Her silence undoubtedly encouraged the arrogance of these concubines, making them even more fearless.

"Empress Shufei has made such a big show. The whole place has been waiting for you. Now that you're here, don't you even have an explanation?" Chen Xiurong smiled and covered her face.

"The Concubine Shu is definitely different, otherwise how could she have gotten out of the cold palace? Her methods are not just ordinary good." Concubine Yu was full of dissatisfaction and spoke in a sarcastic tone. (This is the previous Concubine Xian, who was demoted to the tenth chapter)

"I'm afraid it's more than that. If it's rare for concubines who have been sent to the cold palace to come out, then isn't it even rarer for Concubine Shu to be favored by His Majesty after leaving the cold palace?" Concubine Lin spoke again.

Shuhua, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore. She looked at her queen, but her queen looked as if she hadn't heard anything and acted calmly, as if nothing had affected her at all.

Everyone felt like they were punching cotton when they saw this, and they were full of dissatisfaction, but what else could they do except say a few words? Now, except for the most senior Empress, the highest-ranking Consort Shu was the highest-ranking one on the field.

"Okay, please say less." The queen was troubled by these arguments every day. She had said it more than once, but these people just liked to talk a lot. Such dramas happened every day, so she was too lazy to say more. After all, they were just minor quarrels.

The ladies of the imperial court and the young ladies of the official families below also followed their noses and their hearts. The confrontation between the superiors had nothing to do with them. If they were involved, what would happen?

Besides, although the current Concubine Shu is different from the past, she is not someone who can be easily moved. After all, everyone knows that the Queen Mother is coming back recently, and His Majesty has also hesitated about the affairs of the Cheng family, which makes everyone unclear. So now the situation is unclear, and they naturally dare not stand in a random line.

But just when everyone shut up, Cheng Mingran slowly put down the teacup in her hand and sat up straight: "Have you all said enough?" she asked lightly.

"Don't be angry, sister Shufei. Today everyone is just complaining a few words. Don't make things unpleasant. I will ask them to apologize to sister Shufei later." The Queen now started to act as a peacemaker again.

But Cheng Mingran had no intention of shutting up. She just opened her lips slightly and said, "I am still the concubine appointed by His Majesty. No one here except the Empress is qualified to point fingers at me."

"According to the hierarchy, even if I'm late, they should still wait." There was a hint of coldness in the corners of Cheng Mingran's eyes.

Then she looked at the Empress who was sitting above her: "If there is anything wrong, it is nothing more than that I have caused the Empress to suffer today. If the Empress wants to blame me, I will admit my fault and apologize."

The queen smiled when she heard this and said, "What crime are you asking for? It's just a small matter, don't take it to heart."

After hearing this, Cheng Mingran swept her eyes around the scene again: "Since the Queen doesn't blame me, then no one can blame me today, so everyone who spoke just now is committing an insubordination."

The atmosphere on the field suddenly became tense. Is Cheng Mingran determined to have an outburst today?

The "Shufei" Queen spoke again, and she seemed to want to stop what was happening before her eyes.

But Cheng Mingran had no intention of stopping. She did stay in the cold palace for a while, but that didn't mean she could allow herself to be abused by anyone.

She was abused in the cold palace because she had no power to fight back, but now that she has returned to her original position, she can no longer be the target of these people's humiliation and contempt, nor will she endure their accusations alone.

"Does Concubine Shu mean to blame us?" Concubine Lin spoke first.

"That's right. Does Concubine Shu rely on her high position to suppress concubines of lower ranks?" Chen Xiurong immediately added.

"Is Concubine Shu trying to make a big deal out of this?" Yun Chongyi also spoke.

Cheng Mingran sneered: "The Queen is here, so it is naturally not my turn to deal with it. Queen, how do you think we should deal with it now?"

The Queen looked at Cheng Mingran and said, "We have a wonderful banquet today, why does Concubine Shu have to make such a scene?"

"Your Majesty is kind, but I also want justice today. They openly accused me in front of so many people today. Do you expect me to endure it in vain?" Cheng Mingran was relentless. If she gave in today, those people would become even more aggressive.

If this is the case, the Queen Mother will inevitably be looked down upon and neglected by these people when she returns. The more arrogant she is, the more restrained the people below will be.

It wouldn't be entirely a bad thing if her reputation for being arrogant and domineering got out. After all, those who had guesses about the Cheng family's situation would have to think more.

The queen looked unhappy, but she compromised temporarily: "Since they were at fault first, then Concubine Shu, what do you want to do with them?"

"Of course we will deal with it according to the palace rules. We will deal with it the same way as for the insubordination." Cheng Mingran did not directly say what to do, just said to follow the palace rules.

But this made the queen feel awkward. According to palace rules, those who committed crimes against their superiors would be punished with caning, but the identities of these people were naturally different, so...
