Shao Sichen began to beg Meng Li to ground him, but could Meng Li agree
Obviously not.
When he got tired of hearing this, he directly asked people to take Shao Sichen down.
Shao Sichen's waiters were also assigned to other posts alone.
Now Shao Sichen is surrounded by people from the Princess's Mansion. No one gives him advice, no one speaks to him, and no one takes care of him.
Whether you live well or not depends on the attitude of the concubine's house.
Meng Li would not deliberately instruct the people below to treat Shao Sichen well. As long as she didn't say this, the people below would not treat him well.
Shao Sichen was in confinement, and the hall was empty and lifeless. When it was time to eat, a waiter came in carrying a food box.
Said softly:
"My lord, it's time to eat."
Shao Sichen remained silent. He felt that the waiter's tone was sarcastic and contemptuous.
In fact, it's just that he is too sensitive.
This waiter is not particularly snobbish, and he does not offend others easily.
He was just complaining about this.
The waiter opened the food box at the table and brought out the dishes one by one.
There are four dishes, one soup and one rice. The food is much better than that of ordinary people.
But it was relatively ordinary in the Princess's Mansion. Shao Sichen stared at the dishes. These dishes were far inferior to before in terms of materials and color.
He is actually a very picky person. After all, he has lived the life of a wealthy person since he was a child.
Now these dishes are not very appetizing.
Couldn't help but say:
"Has the food in the mansion been reduced now?"
The waiter shook his head and said:
"As far as I'm concerned, Mrs. Tai, no."
"Then why are you giving these?" Shao Sichen asked.
The waiter took a look at the dishes, remained silent for a moment and said:
"This is sent from the kitchen, and I don't know about it. I am only responsible for delivering it to the Queen."
Shao Sichen knew that they were shirking responsibility, but he couldn't move now and couldn't go to the kitchen to give orders.
All I can say is:
"Then tell the chef that I have just been banned. I am still the queen, and my dietary standards should be the same as before."
The waiter said yes without any objection.
Shao Sichen picked up a mouthful of vegetables and almost spit it out. Wasn't it too salty
His expression was a bit angry. He wanted to be angry but had no target. The waiter next to him should tell him that it was because of the chef.
After enduring it again and again, he couldn't help but said:
"Tell the chef to put less salt in the future."
The waiter also said yes.
Shao Sichen couldn't eat something so salty. It felt like eating salt, so he asked the waiter to bring it to him and get another one.
It's a pity that the chef was very negligent towards Shao Sichen and never made anything new for Shao Sichen.
Shao Sichen was very hungry and asked the waiter to urge him. The waiter replied that the kitchen was cooking.
Always doing.
Shao Sichen didn't get anything to eat until the next meal.
This dish was still very salty, and Shao Sichen couldn't help but question:
"Are you the new cook in the Princess's Mansion? Can you enter the Princess's Mansion even with so much salt?"
The waiter said:
"I don't know."
Shao Sichen wanted to change the dishes, but he felt hungry in his stomach and was afraid that there would be no more dishes to serve him after the dishes were removed, so he had to compromise.
Just eat it.
Shao Sichen knew that the chef was torturing him, but there was nothing he could do about it. He was not favored by his concubine in the first place, and his family's power had declined to such an extent. Now he only had the title of concubine, and was grounded. It was normal for the servants to do this.
All I know is that the world is hot and cold.
But this is a kind of temptation for Shao Sichen by the servants in the Queen's House. Have you compromised
Just compromise.
Food began to get worse and worse, and so did various daily necessities.
Originally, the queen's standard was very high, but the servants took advantage of it and took it for themselves.
Moreover, their behavior seemed not to be stopped by the concubine, and I don’t know if she knew about it.
But this is a tacit understanding. If you ground someone, you will definitely be unhappy with him. You have to find ways to embarrass him and punish him.
You didn't explain it clearly for various reasons, and you didn't specify how to punish them, but with our presence, the people who are banned can also suffer a lot.
Shao Sichen's life became increasingly sad.
Seeing that the food was getting worse and worse, he had to eat even if he didn't want to.
He was still thinking about his fourth sister. He had been grounded for a while, and he didn't know if her fourth sister was okay.
Worrying and crying all the time, coupled with the change in food, made Shao Sichen lose a lot of weight.
As for his fourth sister, she was facing Meng Li at the moment. No matter how Shao Xinglan defended this matter, she could not escape the charge of assassinating the princess.
After all, everyone in the court knew that Shao Xinglan had a grudge against the Queen's Mansion, and everyone knew what Shao Xinglan had done before.
It’s not weird to do this kind of thing now.
Of course, it is normal for a concubine to want revenge.
This does not mean that if you attempt an assassination, you will be detained for a few years and released. This is an era when imperial power is supreme, and various privileges are given to the royal family.
If you attempt to assassinate the princess, you must first check whether the incident has anything to do with your family. If no one from your family is involved, you will be punished by death.
If someone in the family is involved, the family will have to be exterminated.
It doesn’t matter whether you succeed or not.
Shao Xinglan wore a heavy bracelet and anklet, which made an unpleasant clattering sound on the ground.
"You are so poisonous." Shao Xinglan said.
Meng Li asked with a smile:
"Is this palace poisonous?"
Shao Xinglan: "I never intended to kill you, so why would you do this?"
Meng Li was leaning in front of the iron door of Shi's cell. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and looked very elegant, which was in sharp contrast to Shao Xinglan, who was covered in stains and had an unsightly image.
The chains on Shao Xinglan restricted her movement. Even if Meng Li stood in front of her, she could not get close.
Tethered.
When she heard what Shao Xinglan said, she wanted to laugh.
To be precise, Shao Xinglan did not have this idea in the early stages of the plot.
But in the later stage, the client was not finished.
From the beginning to the end of the plot, Shao Xinglan despised the imperial power and his client.
Meng Li said:
"You don't have to want to kill me before I can kill you."
"Even if I kill you today, you can only accept your fate."
Fear flashed across Shao Xinglan's eyes, and she had a premonition that she would die soon.
After taking two steps towards Meng Li, the heavy chain made a clattering sound again. It was harsh and noisy, but it seemed to make the atmosphere more intense.
Unfortunately, she could only move two steps and then she could no longer move forward.
She said harshly to Meng Li:
"Do you believe there will be retribution for such indiscriminate killing?"
Meng Li said seriously:
"I think you are showing your incompetence by saying this. Are you waiting for me to suffer retribution?"
"But can you wait? If you have the ability, you don't need to wait."
Revenge immediately.
Shao Xinglan suddenly laughed crazily:
"Yes, you are right, I lost, but I did not lose to you, but to the imperial power."
"If you didn't have the status of the Crown Princess, how could you be so arrogant? You're so arrogant that you openly put the blame on me without any cover-up. It's really shameless."
