The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn
Chapter 289: Lady Su is punished
Noble Lady Su turned around reluctantly and looked at Zhen Huan, Shen Meizhuang, and An Lingrong. She bowed perfunctorily and said in a manner that was not really respectful, "I wonder if Noble Concubine Xi has any advice for you?"
An Lingrong didn't want to make a fuss about it, but seeing that Concubine Su obviously didn't take the three of them seriously, she couldn't help but get angry.
Just as An Lingrong was about to speak, she heard Zhen Huan say in a slightly cold tone, "It has been quite a while since Concubine Su entered the palace, but she still hasn't learned the palace rules well. It seems that I need to hire a nanny to teach Concubine Su some etiquette."
When Concubine Su heard what Zhen Huan said, she said in a bad tone, "I don't know how I have offended Concubine Xi. When I saw Concubine Xi, I already bowed. Could it be that Concubine Xi wanted to make things difficult for me?"
At this time, Fu Cha Chang Zai happened to pass by. She went to invite the emperor last night, but the emperor not only did not come, but also drove away the people she sent. In addition, the news that Su Guiren was reprimanded by the emperor this morning spread throughout the six palaces. Fu Cha Chang Zai was afraid of getting into trouble. When she was about to leave in a hurry, she suddenly heard Zhen Huan say, "Since Su Guiren doesn't know the etiquette and rules, I will find someone to demonstrate it to you. Fu Cha Chang Zai, come here."
Fu Cha Chang Zai paused, knowing that she could not escape, so she looked at Zhen Huan and bowed politely, "Your concubine pays respect to the Imperial Concubine Xi."
Zhen Huan glanced at Fu Cha Chang Zai and did not let her stand up. Instead, she turned to look at Su Guiren and said in a cold tone, "I wonder if Su Guiren has seen it clearly? Do you need Fu Cha Chang Zai to demonstrate it to you again?"
Noble Lady Su knew that Zhen Huan was deliberately making things difficult for her. Even if she looked down on her in her heart, she had no choice but to bow properly because Zhen Huan was of a higher status than her. "I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine Xi."
Zhen Huan looked at Concubine Su and said, "You are really unfamiliar with etiquette. It seems you need to practice more."
Su Guiren was already upset because she was harassed by the Queen last night and was ridiculed by the concubines again when she came to pay her respects this morning. She was also a little upset at this time. Without waiting for Zhen Huan to speak again, she stood up and said, "If Imperial Concubine Xi doesn't like me, I can just leave immediately and not bother Imperial Concubine Xi. Why does Imperial Concubine Xi have to harass me like this!"
Zhen Huan looked at Concubine Su's ignorant look and suddenly sneered, "I don't even take you seriously, so how can I say I don't like you? First you offended Concubine Rong, and you didn't repent, and then you didn't respect me. Do you still know your own status?"
Zhen Huan's aura suddenly burst out, making Concubine Su a little frightened and her face turned pale.
When Shen Meizhuang and An Lingrong saw Zhen Huan like this, they couldn't help but laugh in their hearts. It was indeed because she had been with Nian Shilan for a long time, Zhen Huan had learned this arrogant and domineering attitude from her 100%, which was enough to impeach anyone.
Concubine Su hesitated for a long time, and finally squeezed out a sentence stiffly, "I don't have..."
Zhen Huan said mercilessly: "Lady Su has committed an insubordination, so I will punish you by making you kneel here for two hours. You may not leave before the time is up."
Zhen Huan winked at Huanbi after she finished speaking, and Huanbi said very cleverly, "Don't worry, Madam. When Concubine Su's time comes, I will personally report today's reason to the Emperor and the Empress."
When Concubine Su heard Huanbi say that she was going to look for the emperor, she couldn't help but panic in her heart, and quickly pleaded, "Please forgive me this time, Concubine Xi. I know I was wrong."
However, Zhen Huan ignored Su Guiren's plea for mercy and left with Shen Meiyu and An Lingrong, completely forgetting about Fu Cha Changzai who was still paying her respects.
Fu Chachang couldn't help feeling anxious when he heard the footsteps of Zhen Huan and the other two leaving, but he didn't dare to call Zhen Huan. After thinking about it, he had to keep the posture of greeting angrily and accompany Concubine Su for the next two hours.
After Zhen Huan and the other two walked away, Shen Meizhuang couldn't help but look at Zhen Huan and joked, "The Imperial Concubine Xi is indeed very majestic. This demeanor really scared me to death."
Zhen Huan listened to Shen Meizhuang's words and rolled her eyes at her angrily, "Sister, you only know how to tease your younger sister." An Lingrong looked at the two of them and smiled faintly.
After Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang had a good laugh, Zhen Huan looked at An Lingrong and said solemnly, "Lingrong, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're no longer a newcomer in the palace, and the Emperor has made you a concubine. You should be more assertive and don't let those fools get to you."
An Lingrong smiled unnaturally, "Sister, Lingrong is fine."
Zhen Huan knew how sensitive An Lingrong was, so she said in a somewhat unpleasant tone, "You are always so noncompetitive, but can you survive in this harem by just being obedient? Remember, we all prosper together and suffer together. You let that bunch of people climb over your head, aren't you slapping the emperor in the face? Do you think the emperor will be happy?"
An Lingrong had never thought about what Zhen Huan said before. She just wanted to endure it as much as possible in the harem and didn't want to trouble Nian Shilan, Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang. But at this moment, her expression was shocked.
Shen Meizhuang also spoke slowly, "Lingrong, Huan'er is right. No matter how bad you are now, you are still the Rong Fei appointed by the emperor himself. If you are always so weak and don't fight for it on weekdays, let alone whether the position of concubine will become your limit, I am afraid it will be difficult to keep it."
After Shen Meizhuang finished speaking, Zhen Huan did not speak again. The three of them continued walking in silence. An Lingrong carefully thought about what Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang said, and had to admit that what they said made sense.
After An Lingrong came to her senses, she looked at Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang with eyes full of gratitude, "Thank you, sisters. Lingrong knows what to do in the future."
When Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang saw that An Lingrong had come to her senses, they were happy for her from the bottom of their hearts.
After the three of them separated, An Lingrong returned to her palace. Thinking of what Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang had said, she told Ren Dong beside her, "Be careful and find out where the emperor likes to go on weekdays."
Seeing that her madam finally came to her senses and began to take the initiative, Ren Dong was very happy and quickly responded, "Don't worry, madam. I will find out everything clearly for you."
After Rendong left, An Lingrong began to redo her makeup herself, intending to astound the emperor as soon as she appeared.
Soon, Ren Dong came back, "Your Majesty, I have inquired and found that the emperor usually goes to the Changle Palace of the Empress, and occasionally goes to Tonghua Terrace for a stroll."
An Lingrong's eyebrows twitched slightly when she heard this, and then she ordered Ren Dong, "Change my clothes."
