Chapter 47 Sir, please respect yourself
"No need to be so polite, please take a seat." Queen Mother Han said gently.
Because of her preference for Ying Fusu, Queen Dowager Han also had a lot of good feelings towards Concubine Zheng.
"Mother, you guys chat slowly. I have something to do, so I'll go out first." Ying Chengjiao said.
Ever since the palace maid came in and reported that Concubine Zheng wanted to see him, he wanted to go out.
Ying Chengjiao had just confined Concubine Zheng's son to his house and threatened him the day before. Now that he saw Concubine Zheng, he felt a little guilty.
How could Concubine Zheng agree?
She came here today to resolve the issue of Ying Fusu being confined to his house. How could she let Ying Chengjiao escape?
"Uncle, please don't worry about anything. I don't know how Fusu has offended you. I want to punish him by confining him to his room." Concubine Zheng did not sit down.
She originally wanted to exchange a few pleasantries first, then try to find out indirectly what mistake Ying Fusu had made, and finally think of a strategy on how to lift Ying Fusu's house arrest based on the mistake he had made.
But when she saw that Ying Chengjiao wanted to get away, Concubine Zheng didn't care about anything else and chose to go straight in.
Ying Chengjiao’s face froze.
Bad food! Why be so direct!
"Don't you know that Fusu is under house arrest?" Queen Mother Han looked at Concubine Zheng in surprise.
Judging from what Queen Mother Han said, she thinks I should know?
"I just found out." Concubine Zheng replied.
"Qiao'er." Queen Mother Han turned her gaze to Ying Chengqiao and said quietly, "Didn't you just say that Concubine Zheng knew about this?"
She really knows it now!
Ying Chengjiao greeted her with a smile: "I clearly sent an official to inform Concubine Zheng. Maybe the official walked slowly and hasn't arrived yet?"
Concubine Zheng narrowed her eyes, realizing that the confinement of Ying Fusu was done by Ying Chengjiao himself and had nothing to do with Queen Dowager Han.
"It was the day before yesterday that Chang'an Jun confined Fusu. No matter how big the Xianyang Palace is, it shouldn't be that he can't reach my bedroom in two days."
"Perhaps the young man got lost?" Ying Chengjiao said with an apologetic smile.
Normally, he had a pretty good relationship with Concubine Zheng, but he must have felt guilty for attacking someone else's son without saying a word!
"I am not an unreasonable person. Can Lord Chang'an tell me the reason why Fusu was confined to his house? If it is really necessary, Lord Chang'an can go and do it himself." Concubine Zheng retreated to advance.
Queen Mother Han reached out and grabbed Ying Chengjiao's ear.
Ying Chengjiao cried out in pain and begged his mother to let go.
"Tell me! Why did you confine Fusu? You didn't tell me when I asked you just now! Tell me the truth now!"
Ying Chengjiao didn't want to tell the real reason.
But it would be impossible for him to make one up perfectly on the spot. The best way now is to divert the blame.
My dear brother, I'm sorry, but he is your son after all.
"Royal brother! It was my royal brother who asked me to do this! I don't know why!"
Although Ying Chengjiao had just told Queen Dowager Han that he was the one who put Ying Fusu under house arrest, Queen Dowager Han seemed to have lost her memory.
Her face darkened and she said, "How can your majesty confine Fusu for no reason! Concubine Zheng! Come with me to see your majesty! I want to ask you the reason!"
When Concubine Zheng heard that it was the First Emperor who did it, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
The person who put Ying Fusu under house arrest changed from Ying Chengjiao to the First Emperor, and the nature of the matter became completely different.
Before she could think about it, Queen Dowager Han had already pulled her towards Zhangtai Palace, leaving Ying Chengjiao alone in Chang'an Palace.
Before leaving, Queen Mother Han turned around and gave Ying Chengjiao a look, meaning that he should go and make a false confession quickly!
My mother still loves me.
Ying Chengjiao understood what she meant, but he was not in a hurry at all. He lay on the Queen Mother Han's couch and stretched lazily.
Concubine Zheng was difficult to deal with for him, but it was not a problem for the First Emperor!
"Someone come!"
Outside the gate of Chang'an Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs who stayed behind shuddered.
They regretted again that they were slow and missed out on catching up with the group that would go to Zhangtai Palace with Queen Dowager Han.
If I had left then, wouldn't I have to face the devil in the house now?
Everyone looked at each other, and we could see the fear and unwillingness in each other's eyes.
Who knows if the person who goes in this time will get his head chopped off because his breathing is too quiet!
Although Qin law was so harsh, at least there were rules to follow and there would be no problem as long as you didn't violate it.
The demon in the house had no valid reasons for killing people. He just killed people for fun!
The stalemate lasted for a while, and then Ying Chengjiao's extremely impatient voice was heard from the palace again.
"I said someone come! Didn't you hear me? There's no one outside!"
Everyone outside the hall trembled, their hearts pounding as if they were about to jump out of their throats!
Normally the demon's tone would kill people, so with this tone, anyone who went in would be in even greater danger!
No one dared to go in. They looked around and finally focused their eyes on the palace maid who handed the golden beans to Xia Wuqie, their eyes full of pleading .
The palace maid has been an old lady who has followed Queen Mother Han for more than ten years. This "old" is not the same as that "old", it means that the palace maid has seniority rather than age.
The maid was called Ding Xiang, and she was sent to Queen Mother Han when she was 15. At that time, Queen Mother Han was not yet Queen Mother Han, and Chang'an Palace was still called Chengjiao Palace.
"Sister Xiang."
A little palace maid looked at Dingxiang with tears in her eyes, and it seemed that she was about to cry.
Ding Xiang looked around and sighed .
"If I had known this, I would have followed the Queen Mother."
After saying this, Dingxiang turned and entered the palace gate.
Her slender and frail figure appeared extremely tall and radiant in the eyes of the eunuchs .
"God bless Sister Xiang to come out alive!"
"Sister Xiang will be safe!"
"Changan-kun is a demon!"
"Eunuch Zhang died tragically..."
The scene inside the palace was completely different from the horror, dull and horrifying scene imagined by everyone outside the palace.
"Greetings, sir." Ding Xiang bowed respectfully.
When she looked at Ying Chengjiao, the fear in her eyes that she had when she first came in was no longer there, but was replaced by admiration.
"Why are you bowing? Where did you learn this bad habit? Find a place to sit! If you bow again, I'll spank you!"
After hearing what Ying Chengjiao said, Dingxiang blushed and sat not far from Ying Chengjiao awkwardly.
"Are there any flies around mother recently?"
"Lilac has not been found yet."
"I trust you to do the job. Please protect my mother. Tell me anytime you find something wrong. Don't act on your own, or you'll reveal your identity."
"Lilac understands."
Ding Xiang lowered her head and answered.
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt two warm breaths on his face.
She raised her eyes and saw Ying Chengjiao's handsome but annoying face less than three centimeters away from her.
You could hear both of them breathing, and Ding Xiang blushed again, and she looked delicious.
"Your face is so ugly." Ying Chengjiao made this comment when facing the beauty in front of him.
Dingxiang's appearance cannot be said to be outstanding, but she is definitely not ugly. If she were to be placed outside, she would be considered a beauty, because one of the selection criteria for palace maids is appearance.
All the maids in the palace are the emperor's reserve harem. No one knows which one of them will be aroused by the emperor's bestiality. Oh no, no, it will be the emperor's favorite. How could the emperor allow such an ugly thing to come in?
Ding Xiang quietly moved her butt backwards, and made circles with her fingers in front of her body, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "Young master, please respect yourself. Article 18 of the Secret Guard Code stipulates that female members of the Secret Guard are not allowed to have close contact with you."
