Chapter 721 Stand Up Before the Banquet
If we follow the normal procedure, when the queen appears, she should say "yes".
Then let everyone stand up.
It's really outrageous that so many people are kneeling here.
But this time the queen didn't say anything, she just looked at everyone quietly.
The married women were still kneeling, but they couldn't help but turn their heads and look at the people next to them.
Although they haven't spoken to each other yet, there is a questioning look in their eyes.
One minute and one second passed, and Lin Jiumian was still sitting quietly on the phoenix chair. But her eyes were cold as she looked at the people in the audience.
After a while, there was still no intention to let everyone get up.
Seeing this, the Prime Minister's wife thought: Among the people present, her rank is relatively high.
In addition, her husband still had some friendship with Jun Wumo, so she asked in a low voice:
Lin Jiumian raised the corners of her lips slightly and said coldly:
Lin Jiumian continued: "What, do you dare to say that you dare not admit it?"
Today is the Queen's banquet. Who dares to say something bad about the Queen in this place?
Just when everyone was confused, a woman stood up and said:
Everyone still looked at each other in shock, and no one dared to say a word.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Etiquette beside her asked in a low voice:
Before she could finish her words, a crisp slap came over her, and she swallowed the rest of her words alive.
Lin Jiumian sat there, looking at everyone coldly.
"I would also like to ask the Queen to explain clearly what mistakes we have made that make you so angry."
"I said that the empress does not know how to be considerate of her fate. She has not summoned any of us since she came to the throne. Even the dragon can't see its end. Who knows what she does all day long."
Lin Jiumian snorted indifferently and said: "Queen? You still know that I am the queen?"
"Do you think of me as a queen in your heart?"
The Prime Minister's wife was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak anymore.
"I know I was wrong, and I still ask your Majesty to punish me."
"Queen, can we get up?"
The woman exclaimed: "Mother, you can't do this to me."
Then there was the sound of slaps one after another.
"That's what I said."
But he is only 16 years old and seems to know nothing.
The person who stood up was the young wife of a fifth-rank official.
Lin Jiumian snorted silently and said, "Very good."
It seems that he said something, but he didn't say anything bad about the queen.
The Prime Minister's wife understood this. It seems that the Queen is very angry today!
The question is, why?
Seeing that no one had anything to say, he gave the order:
"Everyone, please get up."
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
The Prime Minister's wife couldn't help but look up at Lin Jiumian.
"Yes!" the guard beside him agreed and pulled the woman aside.
"To still discuss this palace in the palace is to add insult to injury."
"Do you have to find out everything personally before you admit it?"
"After all, I am also the wife of a serious official. It's just a matter of words. You can't do this to me..."
"What did you all say about me just now? We know that it is a grave sin for you to talk about me in private."
"In that case. Someone is here. Pull her aside and slap her fifty times in front of all the wives."
Lin Jiumian's face was cold and her eyes were full of murderous intent.
"The mistakes she made cannot be punished with you."
After hearing this, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stood up.
As for the woman, her face was as swollen as a pig's head after the beating.
Lin Jiumian was immediately ordered to throw it out.
