The business in Kyoto City was about to open. It was rare that the General was not around. Shen Qing was originally planning to spend time learning about the business, but he didn't expect the Queen to come to the door again. What an uninvited guest.
Empress Zhao arrived with the support of the old nanny and Zhao Suxue with great momentum. Shen Qing stood up with the help of the little palace maid. After Empress Zhao came in, she leaned over and saluted, "Qingluo
Say hello to the Queen."
"Get up." Queen Zhao glanced at her contemptuously. Zhao Suxue beside her was full of jealousy, but her eyes looked extremely disdainful.
Shen Qing stood on one foot with the support of Gong E. Queen Zhao walked gracefully to the round table in the room and sat down. Seeing her standing hard without caring, Shen Qing felt depressed. It seemed that these few were just too busy to work.
To make things difficult for her.
The little palace maid next to her carefully moved a stool to her feet. General Mo Yu was always nervous about his wife, and they had been waiting by his side for too long. As time went by, even if they were not reminded, they would still take care of the new princess with the same care.
Shen Qing didn't sit down and asked in a slow voice, "I wonder what brings the Queen here to me?"
Zhao Suxue glanced at her and said sarcastically: "Why, Auntie Huang is kind enough to come see you, but you still dislike her? It's really funny!"
Queen Zhao stretched out her hand to stop Suxue's words, looked at the little palace lady beside Shen Qingluo with cold eyes, and said to the old lady beside her: "Teach that slave a lesson from me."
"Yes." The old nanny obeyed the order and pulled the little Gong'e beside Shen Qingluo and slapped her twice loudly!
Shen Qing was startled for a moment and immediately shouted, "What are you doing!?"
The old mama completely ignored her words, and threw the palace maid aside with a wave of her hand. The little palace maid hit the door with a bang, knelt on the ground, covered the redness and swelling from the beating, and whispered.
I couldn't help but cry, and I didn't dare to resist questioning at all.
Shen Qing's heart suddenly burned with anger, and she looked at the old woman and Queen Zhao who took action with anger on her face. What kind of nonsense is this, beating the people in her courtyard as soon as they enter the door?!
Queen Zhao looked at her angry face with cold eyes, "Earlier, I thought that you were just a humble commoner woman who didn't understand the etiquette and rules in the palace, so I didn't care much about it. Now the Holy One has accepted you as his adopted daughter. From now on,
You have the identity and status of a princess. Since this is the case, you should know how to abide by your identity. The rules you didn't understand before should be learned bit by bit in the future. I will come to visit you in person, even if your feet are injured.
It's appropriate to stand up and salute, but if I don't give you a seat, even if I ask you to stand for three to five hours, for days and nights, you won't be able to sit down. This is the rule."
"Of course, it's not your fault. It's also because you, the slave in the palace, don't understand the rules. This lesson from the old mama should be to remind the people who serve you about what to do and what not to do."
Empress Zhao smiled softly as she spoke, and continued with a hint of meaning: "The most important thing in being a human being is self-knowledge. Since you know what kind of humble birth you are, you should be punished for overstepping and making mistakes. I
As the head of the harem, you naturally have to set an example for everyone, so if you encounter these things in the future, I will not tolerate it, let alone a small and humble slave. Even if you are, I will punish you severely.
."
Shen Qing's face was ugly. This damn old woman was criticizing Huaihuai, openly and secretly, just to give her a blow! If it wasn't for the injury on her foot, she was the future father-in-law's wife.
, she is going to stir up trouble early in the morning!
Zhao Suxue felt so happy after hearing what the imperial aunt said. What if she was a princess? As long as her imperial aunt spoke out, she could still be tortured to death! "Why don't you speak? Are you not convinced? My imperial aunt is so kind.
Teaching, this is your blessing!"
Shen Qing slowly raised his head, looked at her calmly, and said calmly: "Miss Zhao, I have remembered every word the Queen said, but it is not your turn to accuse this princess.
!”
"You...!" Zhao Suxue and Queen Zhao were stunned at the same time. Accompanying the old woman who had just beaten someone, no one present expected that Shen Qingluo would dare to fight back so arrogantly. Queen Zhao was about to speak out, but was stopped by
Shen Qingluo spoke first.
"Miss Zhao, you are the Queen's niece. You must have followed the Queen's words and deeds to teach you what to do. But since you came here, you have talked a lot, but you don't even know how to salute the most basic things. Isn't this right?"
Princess, I'm new here. I wonder if you have an extremely noble status, or do you want to tell me that what the Queen just said was just for fun?"
Shen Qing looked at the already faintly angry Empress Zhao with fearlessness, "It seems that even the servants in this room who came with the Empress do not understand the rules and etiquette. The Empress teaches strictly by example and will not condone it."
The slaves around me are so rude. In my opinion, two slaps are not enough as a punishment like the old nun’s. We should instead call the soldiers of the Imperial Guard to teach them a lesson one by one!"
Having said this, all the slaves in the room, including the old nanny, trembled and knelt down, "Slaves, slaves, please see Your Highness the Princess!"
Shen Qing, who was kneeling with slaves all over the place, had a proud look on her face, and her calm majesty shocked everyone present. Her natural royal style was no worse than that of a real royal princess!
Queen Zhao came here to deliberately humiliate her, but she did not expect that the situation would completely change her side. Her humiliation allowed Shen Qingluo to establish unparalleled prestige in the palace. Zhao Suxue was also stunned. She did not care about Shen Qingluo's status as a princess at all.
, I didn’t expect that she would take the handle and beat him down hard!
Shen Qing didn't say anything to let the slaves get up. She just turned her eyes and looked at Zhao Suxue, who was still unaware of his life or death. Zhao Suxue felt cold when she looked at her. She also followed the others and leaned down to salute, "Suxue, please see Her Royal Highness the Princess."
At this time, Queen Zhao's face was already in a rare mood, and Shen Qing smiled lightly and said calmly, "Everyone, get up!" After the words fell, all the servants, Mammy Zhao, Zhao Suxue and others stood up in a bustling manner.
After suppressing their arrogance, Shen Qing felt much better. The strong character and strong character developed in the mixed social circle of dragons and snakes in his previous life were no joke!
How could Empress Zhao let Shen Qingluo off so easily? Just as she was thinking about finding another way to use her, she heard another loud voice coming from outside, "The Empress Dowager has arrived."
Shen Qing was secretly annoyed and filled with depression. Why were these people running towards her in a panic?
