Gu Yunzhao is now nearly mature. Unlike his younger sister, when he was young, his appearance could only be regarded as average.
But most men in this world prefer beautiful women.
Whether it was in the backyard of the former palace or in the harem today, the husbands favored beautiful women, and they were often criticized.
Taoye's overly outstanding appearance would only make her unhappy.
"You do have such a pitiful appearance. No wonder I can charm my master into thinking only of you!"
This was an obvious rebuke. Gu Yunqing looked confused and called her eldest sister in a low voice, but Gu Yunzhao glared at her: "You are just being too tolerant, even if they have bad intentions!"
"Eldest sister, Taoye is not..."
Gu Yunqing was afraid that her eldest sister had misunderstood something. Just as she was about to explain, she was interrupted by Mingyue: "Auntie doesn't know that people outside are spreading rumors that Brother Ajiu has been fascinated by a foxy girl. Brother Ajiu's reputation has been... This maid is a drag!"
Mingyue has determined that Taoye said something bad in front of her brother Ajiu about the last hunting ground incident.
Brother Ajiu misunderstood her and did not tell her. The next day, he took away the maid beside him and even said that the maid was from the Fourth Emperor Brother.
She didn't believe it.
Don't talk about why the Fourth Emperor didn't directly place the person next to the eldest brother. Even if the person placed by the Fourth Emperor would not go out of his way to plot against a humble maid. This is obviously Brother Ajiu who wants to vent his anger on this bitch.
Taoye's previous prediction came true. Unfortunately, even if she had predicted it in advance, due to her status, she didn't even have a chance to defend herself.
"Eldest sister has misunderstood. Ajiu has done things casually these years, and because of the matter of establishing the crown prince, there are not enough rumors outside?"
"With the young master of this aristocratic family, whoever reaches his age will not be given a roommate. Those people have nothing to do all day long and just stare at Ajiu. Sister, don't take these words to heart!"
Gu Yunzhao's heart froze after hearing this.
What Mingyue said was a little inappropriate, but the meaning was very straightforward. Ordinary people would definitely be angry after hearing this, but my sister actually comforted herself.
"Aunt, it was obviously this maid who seduced..."
Mingyue reluctantly wanted to continue speaking, but was interrupted by the Queen's cold voice: "Nonsense, these words are also said by you, a princess who has not yet left the cabinet!"
"Yue'er, don't worry. If your brother Ajiu dares to scold you, your aunt will give him a good lesson when she goes back. Next time, let him apologize to you personally!"
Gu Yunqing comforted Mingyue again.
But the person being comforted and Gu Yunzhao next to him felt panicked.
Only Tao Ye, who was kneeling below, felt relieved.
"Okay, you all go down!"
"Mingyue, you should go back first. My mother has something to say to your aunt alone!"
Gu Yunzhao has other important things to tell his sister in Japan today.
Although this maid is doing bad things temporarily, as long as her nephew is married, it doesn't matter if they have one wife.
"Slave, please leave!"
Taoye retreated out together with the maids in the palace.
As soon as I stood waiting outside the door, the bright moon came out.
"Come here, this princess has something to ask you!"
Mingyue glared at Taoye fiercely and spoke arrogantly.
Taoye looked around casually. The palace door had just been closed. Even if there was some noise outside, she might not be able to hear it inside. Even if she shouted at the top of her voice, she might be blocked by the palace maid outside before she even screamed. Mouthed.
"Hurry up and ask this princess to ask someone to help you!"
This hesitation has made Mingyue extremely dissatisfied.
Taoye had no choice but to follow Mingyue and several palace ladies.
As soon as she walked out of the corridor of the main hall, she was kicked hard on the back of her knees. Fortunately, Taoye kept her mind tight and didn't let her knees suffer too much when she knelt down, but she still looked like she was in unbearable pain. .
"You are so courageous. You dare to speak ill of me in front of Brother Ajiu and sow discord between us!"
Qi Mingyue looked at Tao Ye condescendingly, her tone full of anger.
"Princess Mingjian, I was in a coma that day. When I woke up, I was already on the way back home. How could I possibly talk to the fifth young master!"
Taoye kowtowed respectfully.
"Mingjian? This princess underestimated you. I didn't expect you, a humble maid, to dare to provoke the master!"
"Is this how you usually coax your aunt and brother Ajiu to protect you?"
Tao Ye's utmost respect did not calm Qi Mingyue, but seemed to make her a little more angry.
"Since you have a dirty mouth and can't speak, I, the princess, will teach you a lesson today. Come on, slap your mouth!"
Chuntao and another palace maid stepped forward in response.
"Princess, I followed my wife into the palace today. If I go out with a face hurt, I'm afraid I will attract criticism!"
Before anyone could take action, Taoye straightened up and said.
"Using my aunt to suppress this princess?"
Mingyue stepped forward with an angry look.
"I don't dare, I'm just afraid that when the lady asks, I won't be able to reply!"
Taoye didn't want to be beaten in vain, and with the temperament of this princess, she would not calm down even if she humbly accepted the beating.
Mingyue does have some concerns.
I just saw that my aunt was really satisfied with this cheap servant. If she punished him too hard now, my aunt would definitely be unhappy, and she would be even less likely to marry Brother Ajiu.
But she was not willing to let the humble servant in front of her kneel down for a while.
When her anger boiled, Qi Mingyue found that her personal maid, Chuntao, was winking at her.
Following his line of sight, he saw a paunchy beauty in palace attire walking towards her, being supported diligently by two palace maids.
He looked very arrogant.
Qi Mingyue and Chuntao looked at each other and winked.
"You are lucky today, I will bypass you for the time being!"
"Why don't you hurry up and help her up? If my aunt sees her when she comes out, she will think that something has happened to her!"
The two palace maids at the back didn't know what was going on, and stepped forward to help people with doubts on their faces.
Taoye was even more suspicious. She really said that to make Princess Mingyue more afraid and not to do anything too extreme to her. But with the princess's temperament, how could she just let it go so easily and have someone help her up?
Although Taoye stood up to thank her, her heart was not relieved.
"Go and dust the dust off her skirt, don't let anyone see it!"
The two maids squatted down again.
"I dare not bother the people around the princess. I will do it myself!"
Taoye was even more suspicious, wondering what the princess wanted to do.
"When this princess speaks, you have the right to interrupt!"
While speaking, Qi Mingyue saw Chuntao gently nodding towards herself.
Taoye, who lowered his head, did not notice this.
But while I was taking a sip of tea, the beauty in palace clothes from behind had already arrived.
"The princess is here too?"
"I have met the princess, and I would like to ask her forgiveness. I am a month old, so I am afraid that I will not be able to perform the full ceremony!"
