Ye Wanwan wasn't worried when Hongshang ran out. She must have gone to find her mother if she was injured. Naturally, Nanny Li would find someone to look at her injuries.
Qingsha and others cleaned up the mess and wiped the floor several times.
Qingsha was kind-hearted, worried about Hongshang, and even took the time to go and see it in person. An imperial doctor had already treated Hongshang's injury, and Hongshang had stayed directly at Grandma Li's place, and seemed to have no intention of coming back.
Ye Wanwan was still emotionless after hearing this. This slave with a backstage was different. When she was hurt, she would just slap her master in the face without even saying hello.
She was obviously at fault in the first place, but it was as if Ye Wanwan had bullied her for no reason, and yet her life as a slave gave her the temper of a master.
Fortunately, Nanny Li had some brains. She was distressed and angry when she saw Hongshang injured. When Qingsha passed by, she calmed down and came to apologize to Ye Wanwan in person.
"Your Majesty, the girl in Hongshang was spoiled by the old slave. She didn't know the seriousness for a while. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Ye Wanwan tilted her head slightly, as if she had heard a joke: "When I make a mistake, I hide it and ask you to apologize. Who do I forgive, you or her?"
"There is no sincerity in my apology. A mere servant is slandering me. Aunt Li is also an old man who is close to the Queen Mother. But I am too kind. You think I am so easy to talk to because I am someone close to the Queen Mother."
Can you be a slave and bully your master?"
Grandma Li's attitude was sincere, but very calm. She thought it was just a formality. Hongshang broke the bracelet and the imperial concubine also injured her forehead. They were both disfigured. It should be considered even, so she came to apologize.
, this matter was over, but after hearing this, I immediately realized that something was wrong.
"My Lady, I know for sure that this old slave has no such intentions. Hongshang is my daughter. I love my daughter very much. If I make any mistakes, please punish me."
Ye Wanwan said nothing, her long eyelashes like crow feathers covered her eyes, her lowered eyes fell on her hands, and she played with her fingers carelessly.
Qingsha took out the broken jade bracelet and said, "What Hongshang broke was the blood jade bracelet that the empress loved the most. The empress was so angry that she threw the rouge box at it. She didn't expect to hit her on the head."
"My queen has always been a kind person and she treated me very well. It was just an accident. Before I even punished her, she just left without saying a word. It's really heartbreaking."
"Mammy is also an old man who has been with the Queen Mother for many years. A slave is a slave, and the master is the master. If Hongshang is at fault, she should be asked to apologize. Mammy is relying on her status to apologize sincerely, or is she threatening the empress based on her status?
"
Grandma Li quickly shook her head: "Your Majesty, how can I dare? It's just that Hongshang's forehead was split open and bleeding was pouring out. I panicked and was negligent for a moment. It's all my fault. I'll go and take Hongshang away."
Come, let her apologize to the empress in person."
"No need."
Ye Wanwan said calmly: "From now on, Hongshang will go to Huanyi Bureau."
Grandma Li's legs suddenly felt weak and she was shocked. "Huanyi Bureau, is that a place for people to stay?"
"My dear concubine, have mercy on me. Chang'er's forehead was injured. The imperial doctor said that the bones were damaged and she couldn't get out of bed. This hairdresser went to the Clothing Bureau, but it cost her her life."
Ye Wanwan looked at her coldly: "Then how does Grandma Li think she should be punished?"
Grandma Li was at a loss for words: "This...this..."
"I beg your Majesty to forgive me. I am willing to take her to be punished. I beg your Majesty to do it!"
Aunt Lin came in, frowned and said: "Mother Li is a person close to the Queen Mother, how can the Imperial Concubine punish you? Do you want your Majesty to be punished by the Queen Mother?"
"That's not the case, I..." Aunt Li begged with a face full of pleading: "I have no intention of doing anything wrong. Please show mercy to me, the noble concubine."
Grandma Li kept kowtowing and pleading, her head was swollen.
Seeing her like this, Ye Wanwan looked a little dazed. She came back to her senses for a moment and said calmly: "Hongshang has been demoted to the third-class palace maid. Go down."
Not wanting to say anything more, someone directly pulled Nanny Li out.
"Your Majesty?" Aunt Lin looked at Ye Wanwan worriedly. Her mood seemed a bit off.
Ye Wanwan looked into the distance with empty eyes. This is the nature of a mother. Only a mother would protect her like this, regardless of right or wrong.
