Jiaolan Palace.
Ma Cairen was complaining to Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xian comforted her sentence by sentence.
"Sister, I won't tell you what kind of life I'm living now. It's all because of my parents' family, and it's what I deserve.
But the tenth princess is not guilty. She is of royal blood after all. How can a princess of Daxia be so insulted?
Is it possible to swallow your anger and let others step into the mud? I really..."
"Don't think too much of the worst. After all, the Emperor and the Queen still have the final say! It's really outrageous and unjustifiable." Concubine Xian said, "The Queen is taking a nap now, you can come over later. "
"There are times when the Queen is beyond her control, especially among children. If they argue a little today and hit a few times tomorrow, is it possible that they should complain to the Queen every day?"
At this time, a young eunuch came in and said to Concubine Xian: "Your Majesty, Yanda, the manager of Tamamo Palace, wants to see you."
When Ma Cairen heard this, he immediately tensed up and looked at Concubine Xian.
Concubine Xian said, "Please be at peace, sister. It's not Concubine Li who has come here personally to ask questions. Let's listen to what her people have to say."
Then Yanda came in and saluted Concubine Xian and Ma Cairen to say hello.
Concubine Xian asked: "What are you here for?"
Yanda said with a smile on his face: "I didn't mean to disturb Concubine Xian. It was just because the Seventh Princess was injured and she went back to explain the reason.
After hearing this, my mother blamed her that as an elder sister, she should give in to her younger sister, not to mention that the tenth princess is usually the most obedient.
There must be something wrong with our seventh princess, which caused the trouble. Our empress scolded the seventh princess and asked her servants to bring some food and entertainment to the tenth princess.
The younger ones carefully comforted them, and the servants went to Fang Cong Garden, but did not see the talent and the princess. I heard you were here, so I rushed over to apologize. "
When he said this, not only did Ma Cairen not believe it, but even Concubine Xian was surprised, but she still smiled quietly and said: "Sister Concubine Li really knows the general situation, and I only knew that the Seventh Princess suffered Shang, I was about to go over with Ma Cai to have a look!
Does it matter? If you need something that you don't have enough, just come to me and don't let me know. "
"When I get back to you, the bleeding has stopped and the medicine has been applied, so there should be no serious problem." Yanda said, "I'm asking you two to worry about it. There's still some mess over there, so you two masters can wait a little longer to avoid this. The young ones made a mistake in the chaos and neglected the two of you."
At this time, Ma Cairen had to speak, and his tone was naturally strong: "The people following the tenth princess are also to blame for this matter. She herself can't say anything, and those who followed should be safe. How could she be so careless and hurt the seventh princess? It really shouldn’t be.”
"Our empress has said, let this matter be revealed like this! There is no need to pursue it." Yanda said, "How can there be a time in this world when the spoon does not touch the edge of the pot? Whether it is ordinary people or the royal inner garden, there are Occasionally when someone makes a noise."
Then he said: "Our queen asked me to deliver the things. I'd better send them to Fangcongyuan for you!"
After Yanda left, Concubine Xian said: "Sister, Concubine Li is so humble now, which is our blessing.
Even though she says she won't pursue it, you should go and have a look for yourself and say something good.
Maybe the old grudges will be settled from now on, which will be a good thing for both you and her. "
"Sister is right. I'll go over there soon! Don't go too late and make people feel neglected." Ma Cai said humanely.
"Well, I have a few spare things here. You can take them to the Seventh Princess," Xian Fei said. "It's not good to go there empty-handed."
"Thank you, sister. I have already troubled you a lot. I still have some things there. Although they are not very good, I can still get them." After all, Ma Cairen has been a concubine for more than ten years. As the saying goes, she is so skinny. The camel is bigger than the horse and still has some of the old frame.
"That's fine." Concubine Xian nodded, "The Empress cares about you wholeheartedly, but she has many things to do, so it's inevitable that there will be things she can't take care of.
What's more, there are still some taboos to avoid, sometimes it is really a last resort. If you are lacking anything, just come to me. By then, we sisters will be the same. "
Ma Cairen couldn't help but be moved. He took Concubine Xian's hand and said, "They say a friend in need is a true friend. When I was in high places, everyone was kind to me. Now, you are the only one who is the same as before. .”
"Don't say that, you have always treated me well. Now you have to relax, but after all, your majesty will take care of the tenth princess." Xianfei said, "There is also a queen."
When Ma Cairen heard her mention the queen, he didn't say anything more. He just said, "Then I'll go to Tamamo Palace and have a look! Just like what you said, sister, it's not good to go late."
Immediately, Ma Cairen took the tenth princess and several girls to Yuzao Palace. Lin Fufei was not found before, but fortunately she found it herself later.
When they arrived at Tamamo Palace, Concubine Li asked them to be invited in nicely.
Naturally, Ma Cairen had to lower his posture and said after greeting Concubine Li: "What happened today is all because of the people under my concubine. I came here to apologize and let Concubine Li do whatever she wants."
Li Fei said calmly: "I asked Yanda to send a message to you a long time ago, and there is no need to mention this matter again in the future.
The grievances and resentments between you and me have been stumbling for so many years. You are tired and I am tired, so be it!
When it's time to put your hands down, it's not bad for anyone. "
"It's rare that the empress is so generous, so I'll thank you. But I still want to apologize in front of the seventh princess. I wonder if we can see her now?" Ma Cairen asked again.
"The child's injuries are not serious. She was just frightened. She took some soothing and pain-relieving medicine and has already fallen asleep. Don't wake her up now. Besides, if a child's family has nothing to apologize for, I will do it myself." She has the final say." Li Fei said.
"Ms. Li Fei, it's all my fault. I accidentally pushed down the Seventh Princess. Please punish me!" Lin Fufei knelt down and said.
"It stands to reason that you are indeed guilty of the following. Although I do not blame Ma Cai and the tenth princess, as a palace maid, you dare to attack the princess. It is really disrespectful." When Concubine Li faced Lin Fufei, He couldn't help but show some dignity.
Lin Fufei knelt there shivering, and she knew she had made a big mistake.
But Concubine Li turned around and said: "However, considering that the queen's birthday is approaching, it is really inappropriate to beat and kill her. I'm afraid it will make the queen feel uncomfortable. So you can kneel down for two hours as a punishment! It is also right. You have been punished."
Lin Fufei never expected that Concubine Li would punish her so lightly, so she immediately thanked her.
Concubine Li said again:. I should have left you to sit and sit for a while, but I am also very exhausted from being disturbed for most of the night. I guess you are also worried and scared, which is very difficult, so why don't we go our separate ways. "
So Ma Cairen and others left, leaving Lin Fufei here to kneel as a punishment, while the others returned to Fangcong Garden.
