Chapter 1164 Coincidentally, I only Want Her Life

"Emperor Niang knows the seriousness of the matter, but she still has to do it. She's just stupid." Fourth Master's tone was light, but the words he said were serious.

The queen mother felt that she couldn't bear face, so she stood up angrily and accused: "Emperor, what are you talking about?"

Fourth Master just sat like that, raised his head to look at the Queen Mother, and glanced at Aunt Cui behind her.

"Emperor Niang, at this age, should enjoy the blessings in the harem, but she has been repeatedly encouraged by others to help the tyrant and abuse her. If she is not old-fashioned, then the slaves around her cannot be used."

As he said that, he motioned to the guards beside him, and said in a deep voice, "Come here, drag her out to me and stick her to death!"

As soon as the voice fell, the guards stepped forward to support Aunt Cui, trying to drag her out and kill her with sticks.

Aunt Cui's legs were so frightened that she knelt down in front of the Queen Mother and begged, "Queen Mother, please save this old slave. This old slave has been by your side since he was a child and cannot leave you. Besides, there is no slave to serve you, slave Don't worry..."

Aunt Cui begged with every sentence, she said it was for the queen mother's good.

In fact, in order to save his life, he is selling his feelings here.

And she has indeed served the queen mother for decades, and the queen mother has feelings for her.

Seeing that Aunt Cui was crying so badly, the Queen Mother frowned, and said embarrassingly: "Emperor, you have to deal with the slaves around the Ai family. The Ai family has no objection. But you can't deal with her alone. She is not married. Always by your side.”

Realizing her fault, she was less forceful.

Instead, he took a step back and spoke, just wanting to keep Aunt Cui.

However, Fourth Master stared straight at Aunt Cui, seemingly casually said: "Coincidentally, I only want her life."

"Emperor, why are you so stubborn? You want Aijia to have no caring servants, so you're so mad at Aijia?"

"Emperor Niang, you can't just allow yourself to set fire and not allow me to light the lamp. You have been doing whatever you want in the harem, and I just deal with a slave, why can't you do it? Besides, she doesn't even know what you think this slave is good for." Behind your back, how much money has been collected behind your back, and how many dirty things have been done for others!"

As soon as these words came out, a look of shock flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.

It seems to recall that Aunt Cui often blows the wind in her ear.

At this time, Aunt Cui's eyes were full of panic, she stopped her fake crying, and said with a guilty conscience: "Queen Mother, there is no slave, the slave was wronged..."

Even Concubine Yu Gui who was at the side had a flash of panic in her phoenix eyes, could it be... Did the emperor see something, or did he find out?

However, after a few seconds of shock, the Queen Mother still insisted on Baocui Auntie.

She said: "It's a matter of course for a mother-in-law to teach her daughter-in-law. The same is true for the Ai family to teach the concubines in the harem, including the queen. Not to mention in the royal family, it is common for any family. As for Aunt Cui, She is a servant of the Ai family, no matter what wrong she did, she will be disciplined by the Ai family, and the emperor will not be allowed to intervene."

"Emperor Niang, the emperor committed the same crime as the common people, let alone your slave. I am afraid that the emperor will be soft-hearted, so I will help you punish the slave. Besides, the entire Qing Dynasty belongs to me, and there is nothing I can't do." I intervened, and I'm just telling you, not asking for your opinion." After speaking, he gestured to the slave.

Those guards dragged Aunt Cui out regardless of the Queen Mother's objection.

For a while, the atmosphere between the mother and son reached a point of tension.

Chen Biao and Su Peisheng stood behind Fourth Master, watching the scene quietly.

There are all slaves here, and there are no officials, so there is no need to act for anyone.

Besides, this matter is the empress dowager's fault.

Unlike that day on Longevity Day, there were so many princes and ministers, and all the spearheads were directed at the queen.

And the queen mother came to Taimiao to check the queen this time, which somewhat damaged the queen's reputation.

The emperor's actions undoubtedly made everyone feel that the empress dowager did something wrong and had nothing to do with the empress.

In addition, punishing the slaves of the Queen Mother should only be regarded as the instigation of the slaves when the Queen Mother went to the Taimiao to interrogate this time.

After all, no matter what you say, you are still a mother and child. The emperor can't do anything to the queen mother, otherwise it would be unfilial.

Just like the prince made mistakes back then, Emperor Kangxi could not beat the prince to death, he could only kill all the servants around the prince, and blamed the responsibility on the servants.

When it comes to the emperor, it's even more complicated. It's not the relationship between Lao Tzu and his son, but the relationship between son and mother.

Then, let alone execute the old mother because of a wrong thing.

Even if there are huge misunderstandings and contradictions, no family will kill the old mother, it is against morality and law.

What's more, this is still royal.

As for why only Aunt Cui was punished, as far as Chen Biao knew...it was because of the Longevity Day incident.

If Aunt Cui hadn't spoken first that day, Concubine Xi and Li Si'er would not have been able to testify so boldly.

Later, the rest of the people who saw it also followed suit.

This caused things to get out of hand.

Now, that Qiaofeng confessed truthfully, but the emperor said that she was the queen's servant, so she meant to vent her anger on the queen.

But this Aunt Cui is different. Even if the Queen leaves the Taimiao and takes revenge on Aunt Cui, that will offend the Queen Mother.

Therefore, the emperor is solving Aunt Cui for the empress.

As for Noble Concubine Yu, due to Nian Gengyao's high achievements, it was a bit tricky for the time being.

But with the emperor's thoughts on the empress, concubine Yu Guifei would not be able to recover for long after the limelight passed.

Isn't Concubine Wen from before a good example?

It's all just a matter of time.

The Queen Mother watched the guards drag Aunt Cui out in front of her, and was so angry that she stood there trembling.

"Okay, Emperor, your wings are stiff now!"

In the past, no matter what she said about the emperor, the emperor just kept silent.

At worst, he flicked his sleeves and walked away.

Now, for the sake of the empress, she slapped her face in public, and killed her close-knit nurse.

Thinking of this, she gave Ruoyin a fierce look.

However, Fourth Master seemed to have put up with the Queen Mother for a long time.

This time, it finally broke out.

His punishment for the Queen Mother was far more than just killing Aunt Cui.

The fourth master slightly parted his thin lips, and said calmly: "The emperor's mother is getting old, I advise you to take a good rest in Ningshou Palace, and the concubines in the harem will not bother you."

"What do you mean, is the emperor going to let go of the power of the Ai family?" The queen mother waved her hands angrily, and said negatively: "In this case, the emperor might as well take away the Ai family's book seal. I don't want to be a family anymore!"

Fourth Master casually twirled the beads, stood up and looked at the Queen Mother.

Then he chuckled and said: "You are my empress mother, I just want you to have a good rest, naturally I will not remove your power, let alone take away your seal. The concubine was promoted to be the imperial concubine of Huang Kaoxian. Therefore, during the period when the empress is recuperating, the concubines in the harem will go to her to pay her respects."
