Chapter 19: Severe Punishment of Aunt Gui
Princess Duan snorted coldly. Just as she was about to speak, Nanny Gui beside her raised her voice and said, "Princess, how dare you! How dare you stand up before the princess has spoken? How disgraceful!"
Gu Qinlan sneered, with a sharp look in her eyes: "Madame Gui, when did you become so bold as to reprimand me?"
Nanny Gui was stunned. She didn't expect Gu Qinlan to dare to refute her like this. She said angrily, "Princess, don't forget that this is Prince Duan's Mansion, not your Gu family. Here, you have to abide by the rules of the palace."
Gu Qinlan raised her chin slightly and ordered the maid Fu Yu beside her: "Fu Yu, give Madam Gui a few slaps."
Fu Yu was stunned. She didn't expect Gu Qinlan to give such an order, but she carried it out without hesitation. She rolled up her sleeves, raised her hand, and slapped Aunt Gui hard several times.
Nanny Gui's cheek was swollen from being beaten. She looked at Gu Qinlan in disbelief, her eyes full of anger and fear. She immediately knelt on the ground and asked for justice from Princess Duan: "Princess, please make the decision for me! The Crown Prince's Consort..."
Princess Duan's face was as gloomy as water. She looked at Gu Qinlan and asked coldly, "Qinlan, why are you so bold as to slap Nanny Gui?"
Gu Qinlan replied calmly, "Princess, Nanny Gui dared to scold me. This is disrespectful to me as the Crown Prince's Consort. I just wanted to let her know that Prince Duan's Mansion is not a place where a servant like her can scold her master at will."
Princess Duan's face became even gloomier. She didn't expect Gu Qinlan to dare to contradict her like this. She said angrily: "Qinlan, you are challenging my authority!"
Seeing Gu Qinlan being scolded by Princess Duan, Nanny Gui's lips curled up immediately. But her happiness was only for a moment, as she saw Princess Duan suddenly turn around and glare at her. Her eyes were as cold as ice, and Nanny Gui shuddered involuntarily.
Princess Duan said coldly: "Madam Gui, what are you laughing at?"
Nanny Gui was stunned, and hurriedly suppressed her smile, lowered her head and said: "Princess, please calm down, I just..."
"Just what?" Princess Duan's voice became even colder. "What do you think this place is? Is Prince Duan's Mansion a place where you can do whatever you want?"
Aunt Gui's face was pale and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
It’s over. The princess has seen my smugness just now. I’m afraid I’m going to get into big trouble.
At this time, Gu Qinlan sneered and said, "Princess, Nanny Gui has been behaving like this for a long time. She relies on the fact that she is the confidant of Prince Duan and doesn't take you seriously at all."
Princess Duan's face became more gloomy. She said slowly, "Qin Lan, you are right. Aunt Gui, tell me why you dare to be so disrespectful."
Nanny Gui was so frightened that she knelt down hurriedly, kowtowed, and said in a trembling voice: "Please spare my life, Princess. I will never dare to do it again. Please have mercy on me, Princess. I was just carried away by my pride for a moment and did not mean to offend you."
Princess Duan snorted coldly and said, "Are you getting carried away by your success? What do you think of the Prince Duan's Mansion? Do you think I will protect you forever?"
Aunt Gui kowtowed repeatedly with tears in her eyes: "Please spare my life, Princess. I know I was wrong. Please give me a chance to make amends."
Gu Qinlan watched coldly and laughed secretly in her heart.
This time, Nanny Gui was completely screwed. She deliberately provoked Princess Duan in order to make the princess have a deeper understanding of Nanny Gui's crimes so that she would not be instigated by her in the future.
After all, Nanny Gui had served Princess Duan for many years, and the two had a deep relationship. When Princess Duan saw Nanny Gui kneeling on the ground begging for mercy and crying loudly, she suddenly felt a little bit reluctant.
Princess Duan had originally decided to severely punish Nanny Gui, but Nanny Gui's tearful face was like a sharp blade, piercing the softest part of her heart.
She hesitated for a moment, and was about to speak, when she heard Gu Qinlan speak slowly, her voice calm and firm: "Mother, although Aunt Gui has been with you for many years, honest advice is unpleasant to the ear. It would not be wise for mother to ignore Aunt Gui's mistakes because of a momentary weakness."
Princess Duan was slightly startled and turned her gaze to Gu Qinlan, only to see unquestionable majesty between her brows.
"Gu Qinlan, are you teaching me how to do things?" Princess Duan's tone clearly contained a hint of dissatisfaction.
Gu Qinlan smiled slightly, with a humble look: "Mother, you misunderstood. I am just worried that your temporary kindness will become a disadvantageous factor for Prince Duan's Mansion. Now, Prince Duan's Mansion is in a troubled time. If Nanny Gui continues to sow discord between us, then the rumors of discord between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in Prince Duan's Mansion will reach the ears of the prince, which may affect the prince's mind, and the consequences will be disastrous..."
Princess Duan was silent for a moment, with a complicated look in her eyes. She looked up at Aunt Gui, only to see that Aunt Gui's eyes were tearful and her face was full of guilt.
"Madam Gui, tell me, did you commit the crime of disobeying your superiors and deliberately sowing discord?" Princess Duan asked in a serious tone.
Nanny Gui shuddered all over and kowtowed quickly: "Princess, I did make a mistake, but it was really unintentional. Please have mercy on me, Princess."
Gu Qinlan interrupted coldly: "Madam Gui, if you really cared about the princess, how could you make such a big mistake so many times?"
Nanny Gui widened her eyes and looked at Gu Qinlan in horror, as if she had not expected her to point out her mistakes so bluntly.
Princess Duan struggled in her heart. She knew that what Gu Qinlan said was the truth, but she couldn't bear to do anything to Nanny Gui. So, she looked at Gu Qinlan, with a glimmer of help in her eyes.
Gu Qinlan glanced at Nanny Gui coldly, and said to Princess Duan righteously: "Princess, Nanny Gui knowingly committed a crime, which is really outrageous. She is so arrogant, if she is not severely punished, it may be difficult to convince the public."
Upon hearing this, Princess Duan's face darkened, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, and she slowly spoke: "Qin Lan is right. Nanny Gui has repeatedly committed crimes and should be severely punished. Send down the order to drag Nanny Gui away and punish her according to the palace rules."
At this moment, the atmosphere in the lobby was tense and heavy.
Princess Duan sat at the top with a serious look on her face, flanked by a group of burly servants. Gu Qinlan stood beside Princess Duan, looking sharply at the frightened Nanny Gui.
Nanny Gui was dragged to the hall by the servants. She struggled and screamed, trying to break free. However, the servants were merciless and pinned her to the ground.
"Madam Gui, do you admit your guilt?" Princess Duan asked coldly.
Nanny Gui raised her head and looked at Gu Qinlan with resentment. She gritted her teeth and said, "What crime have I committed? It was just a small mistake due to a moment of negligence."
Gu Qinlan raised her eyebrows and said in a cold tone: "Madame Gui, you knowingly committed a crime and instigated the princess behind the scenes to sow discord between the masters and disturbed the palace. And you still say it was just negligence?"
Nanny Gui widened her eyes and glared at Gu Qinlan: "Gu Qinlan, you are just a new prince's consort, how dare you treat me like this!"
Upon hearing this, Princess Duan's eyes turned cold and she shouted, "Madam Gui, how dare you! How can you be so presumptuous in the Prince Duan's Mansion!"
