When Zhao Xu returned to Qingning Palace, the aunt brought tea and stood timidly on the side.

"What are you afraid of?"

Zhao Xu frowned and looked at her. Seeing that her head was almost hanging to her chest, he couldn't help but smile and said, "This is my place, who are you afraid of?"

He is the leader of Qingning Palace, who dares to bully the aunt?

The aunt looked up and her eyes dodged, "Not afraid."

This is a timid person.

Zhao Xu smiled, then waved his hand, and after she went out, he said with a frown: "The saint wants a mirror... I remember last time Chen An said that the mirror was difficult and cost too much, so how could he speak?"

The aunt took the plate to the tea room, first fetched a bucket of water, and then carefully washed the plate and tea-making utensils.

She squatted there and worked very seriously, but she didn't find a palace maid walking behind her.

That pretty face was full of jealousy, "Why did the king look at you differently?"

The aunt shivered, turned her head and took a look, then stood up and stood with her hands behind her back.

The errand for Zhao Xu was originally the palace maid. After the aunt came, she was replaced to tidy up her clothes.

It is very easy to organize clothes, but he can't get close to Zhao Xu. For a palace maid who is very energetic and wants to become a concubine in the future, he will be demoted.

The palace maid walked around her twice, and said with a tsk sound, "Tsk Tsk Tsk Tsk Tsk! Tell me about you... I am as thin as a door panel, and I have no place to lift up. How could the king value you?"

As she said that, she reached out to touch the aunt's body, but she didn't dare to twist it, for fear that it would be noticed if she twisted it out.

The aunt shivered for a moment, took a step back, and said in panic: "I don't know."

She really didn't know why Zhao Xu looked at her differently.

"Don't you know?" The palace maid sneered: "How important is the king's tea? It's not something that people who are extremely trusted cannot serve me. I have been withstood for a long time and gave me some things for half a year. Unexpectedly, I was snatched by you, a woman from the countryside. I was really... so angry!"

The old lady became more and more scared. She lowered her head and dared not speak, and she didn't dare to speak.

When you are timid, others will look down on you and then bully you.

Bullying the weak is the nature of many people, and they like to use this behavior to show their strength.

Seeing that she was scared, the palace maid couldn't help but slapped her on the back of the head.

There will be no scars on the back of the head, which is the safest.

Bang!

The aunt was stumbled by the slap and sobbed in tears.

The palace maid scolded: "If you cry again, you will throw you into the dry well."

The dry well in the palace is a legend. It is said that dry bones often appear, and those old people like to use this to scare newcomers.

The aunt shivered and looked up and wanted to beg for mercy, but was stunned.

When the palace maid saw her dazed, she couldn't help but get angry. She stepped forward and wanted to do something, but saw someone standing outside the door with a expressionless face.

Dada dada...

The sound of teeth bumping is very clear in a quiet environment.

The aunt blinked her eyes quickly, but tears could no longer help but burst into her eyes.

The palace maid smiled for a long time and said, "I have met the king. The king, I am teaching her..."

Zhao Xu outside the door said lightly: "I can hear it clearly outside."

The palace maid's legs became weak and she knelt down.

"Master, I am really..."

"Come!"

"King."

Wang Chongnian and Qiao Er came in.

Just a glance, both of them saw the clues.

Aunt Chang was bullied, and the palace maid was pretending to be pitiful.

They had experienced many struggles in the palace and sneered in their hearts, but they didn't know what Zhao Xu was going to deal with it.

According to Zhao Shu's previous habits, it is mostly a fine for salary and then imprisoned for a few days.

Zhao Xu looked at Aunt Chang with tears on her face and became angry, "Boe!"

"King..."

The palace maid was stunned, and Wang Chongnian and Qiao Er were also stunned.

Since Zhao Zhen's reign, there have been few people in the palace to beat people. Until Zhao Shu ascended the throne, the official family who did not like eunuchs and palace maids made the palace people know again what it means to be unpredictable.

But Zhao Xu has been in the palace for several years and has never punished anyone around him!

And he is a palace maid.

Even Zhao Shu was punished by eunuchs, and more of the scolding and fined the palace maids.

What does this mean? It’s not a good reputation after it is spread.

Qiao Er smiled and said, "King, this..."

"Why do you make the decision for me?"

Zhao Xu was a little annoyed and said, "Test it now!"

So the people from Qingning Palace were summoned to watch and beat the board together.

Being taken off your lower skirt and beaten on the board in public is considered a humiliation and corporal punishment for the palace maids, and a double torture.

With those screams, the people in Qingning Palace looked at Aunt Chang differently.

The king actually made an exception for her to beat the palace maids. Why is this?

Later, news also came from the harem.

"What's going on?"

Gao Taotao was watching with his daughter's mirror. Zhaojun's face moved and said, "It was said that the man privately scolded the newcomer, but was seen by the king, but the king was furious..."

Gao Taotao looked up and said wisely: "Dalang usually refuses to punish the palace maids. This new man can actually win his eyes. It can be seen that he is beautiful. Looking back, if he has good character, then give it to him."

Here for him, it means becoming his woman.

The flesh on Zhaojun's face trembled again, "Sage, it's that Aunt Chang."

Gao Taotao slid his hand and the mirror fell down. She hurriedly caught the mirror and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"That woman from Wenfeng Village?"

"yes."

Feiyan next to her walked over, and the fat man on her body trembled everywhere while walking, looking quite scary.

Zhao Shu ascended the throne and still has only Gao Taotao, a woman. This gives the outside world some opinions. The first is that the emperor and the empress have deep affection. Zhao Shu refused to find another woman, and the second...

Anyone who sees Feiyan and Zhaojun looks basically agrees with the second view.

——The queen is jealous!

One has a fat face and the other has a fat body. If these two women are around every day, Gao Taotao would be willing to fulfill his wishes.

"Sage, the outside world says that Aunt Chang is a woman the king values."

Gao Taotao shook his head, "No. Dalang is probably pitiful to her."

Feiyan said: "Someone in the palace said...the king was cruel."

Gao Taotao became furious in an instant.

"What cruelty?" she said angrily: "It is cruelty to punish a palace maid who makes mistakes? Who said this?"

Feiyan shook her head, "I didn't find it."

Gao Taotao said with a gloomy face: "Go and find the palace maid who made a mistake, just say it was me, drive it out!"

The queen was furious, which shows that the palace maid made a lot of mistakes.

So the rumors outside gradually faded.

But Zhao Xu knew that this was his mother reminding herself: Son, how is the matter in the mirror?

Why!

Is it really good to settle accounts clearly between mother and son?

When he arrived at the Shen family, Shen An was walking around with taro in his arms. When he saw him coming, he casually said: "This is the sun coming out from the west! By the way, you didn't bring any gifts or anything. Are you embarrassed to come to my house?"

Zhao Xu shouted in his heart that he had a mistake. He thought of his trip, so he touched it, and ended up touching a new golden gourd.

He untied the golden gourd and handed it to Chen An, "For taro."

"Hey! I really give it!"
