"presumptuous!"
You Yuji suddenly scolded angrily, which scared the concubines outside. They immediately stopped talking and what they were doing, and tilted their heads to look towards the small room.
In all this time, they had never seen the lady so angry.
"You are using foul language, disregarding the distinction between high and low, and have no manners! Someone, drag him out and slap him in the face twenty times!"
Madam Jing frowned and waved her hand. Two maids immediately rushed up and pushed Si Han out from the left and right.
Si Han had been Sun Guangliang's concubine for some time, and she was no longer the arrogant princess she once was. But she still didn't expect that the mistress would punish her so severely for the two words she said to the concubine.
"Madam..." She tried to explain, but Madam Jing immediately stuffed a handkerchief into her mouth.
"Madam probably doesn't want to listen to what aunt says. I'm sorry." Madam Jing said the impolite words in a polite manner.
The man was quickly dragged to the courtyard. Before the slap, the gag was pulled off. Madam Jing rolled up her right sleeve slowly, took the stick, and slapped the man herself.
After the first blow, Si Han's mouth immediately became red and swollen.
"Auntie, please be patient." Madam Jing kindly reminded him with an expressionless face, but she showed no mercy in her use of force.
She has waited for too long for this day to help the lady establish her authority!
Tan Xiang Yingyue's servants and the maids brought by the concubines all looked over secretly, and no one dared to breathe, and they were in tacit understanding.
After being beaten with twenty boards, Si Han's face was covered in blood, and even the front of her clothes was stained with blood.
Chun Xing had already stood up from her chair, hunching her shoulders and watching the scene in fear. The fear of the mistress crept into her heart again. You Yuji had been too kind to them during this period, so kind that the timid girl dared to speak to the mistress in a polite tone. The twenty strokes of the board on Si Han's face today also woke Chun Xing up - the mistress is the mistress, and the concubine is the concubine. No matter how kind the mistress is, she still holds their lives in her hands.
Cuiyu and Lin Yingying also fell silent. They didn't know why Si Han was beaten, but at this moment they felt the same as Chun Xing - they were lowly concubines.
If given a choice, who would be willing to be a concubine
The two secretly looked at You Yuji who was standing at the door. You Yuji stood at the door dignifiedly and watched Si Han's execution with her own eyes.
Madam Jing handed the board to the nanny beside her, turned to look at You Yuji, and respectfully reported that the punishment was over.
You Yuji still felt a bit depressed. She said, "From now on, you will reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors until you wake up."
It's not enough to just beat the person, they also put him under house arrest without even a time limit.
Si Han's current maid was assigned to her after she came to the palace. The little maid was not very old and her face turned pale with fright at this scene. She trembled as she went over to help Si Han leave.
You Yuji looked at Si Han coldly as she was helped out of the courtyard with difficulty, then turned around. The three concubines carefully looked at her face. Even Lin Yingying, who was always eloquent, was speechless for a moment.
You Yuzhi didn't care about what the three of them were thinking at the moment. She went straight into the small room on the side of the flower hall.
The door of the small room had been open, and Si Que just saw what was happening outside.
You Yuji stepped into the threshold of the small room without closing the door.
She looked at Si Que, and her cold expression gradually revealed a gentle smile. She did not lower her voice, and even raised it slightly: "As long as I am here, no one can bully you."
The concubines outside and the servants in the yard were sure that Si Han had offended Princess Que and was punished by the lady.
Si Que didn't notice the various looks from outside. He sat on the narrow bed, looking at You Yuji quietly, watching her sullen brows slowly clear up, and smiled at her gently.
Is this what it feels like to have someone backing you up
Si Que suddenly found it a little funny.
When he was Princess Que, no one backed him up. When he was the owner of the Poison Tower, he didn't need anyone to back him up.
The novel feeling creeps into my heart, and it feels like a drizzle of rain in June is falling on my heart.
Seeing that he didn't react, You Yuji walked towards the narrow bed, sat down beside it, and pulled his hand.
"She's talking nonsense, don't take it to heart." She gently shook Si Que's hand, her voice becoming softer, "Don't be unhappy, okay?"
Zhenxu's eyelids twitched, fearing that the scene that followed was not suitable for outsiders to see. She hurried over and closed the door of the small room, and with a stern face, she scolded the servants in the courtyard: "Everyone go do your own thing, don't gather here."
The servants dared not watch the fun anymore and quickly dispersed.
Chun Xing said timidly: "Please tell my wife that I have something else to do and I'll leave first."
Cui Yu and Lin Yingying also found an excuse and left in a hurry.
After everyone left, Madam Jing rubbed her sore wrists. She looked at the tightly closed door of the small room, and a sigh rose in her heart.
She had finally waited for the opportunity to establish her wife's authority, but she didn't expect it to be for another woman...
In the small room, Si Que lowered his eyes and stared at the two people's clasped hands for a long time.
From the initial desire for this woman, gradually greed and ignorance developed.
You Yuji didn't expect Si Que to remain silent. She thought he was upset because he recalled the past. She leaned over, gently touched his forehead with her eyebrows, and whispered, "Don't be unhappy, okay?"
"Sister..." Si Que's long eyelashes trembled slowly, and his clear eyes looked over. There was a layer of grievance and flattery in his watery eyes, "Can you..."
"What?" You Yuji squeezed his hand slightly. She didn't know what he wanted, but seeing his fragile appearance, she was willing to try her best to satisfy him no matter what he wanted.
"Kiss me?"
You Yuji was surprised.
Si Que looked at her and saw a ripple in his eyes, which gradually turned into a gentle smile that could drown people. He stared at her without blinking, sitting quietly and waiting, feeling her breath gradually approaching.
She was already very close, and soon moved closer to his lips, pressing her soft lips against his.
The soft touch started from the corner of his lips, spreading out in circles, gradually washing over his body, and finally gathering in his wet heart, exploding with tenderness all of a sudden.
But before he could savor it, she had already left him.
How could she be so stingy, just touching the corner of her lips and then backing away.
Si Que's eyes were not yet filled with gloom, and the next moment he was wrapped in a huge softness. She gently embraced him, and patted his back gently with her palms as if soothing him. She rested her chin on his shoulder, and gently rubbed his cheek with her delicate jade-like face. She whispered softly: "She is wrong. How can everyone dislike you? I like Ah Que very much."
She curved her eyes again and continued with a smile: "Bai Sui also likes Ah Que very much."
Si Que couldn't laugh.
Fortunately, she couldn't see his expression now, so he didn't need to smile. He lowered his eyes, feeling her unique and elegant fragrance filling his body.
The person she likes, A Que, is a man wearing a mask.
The A Que wearing the mask is not the real him.
Is there a lie in this world that can be concealed for a lifetime
If You Yuji knew that he was really a beast, how would she treat him? I'm afraid she would never smile at him again, never give him the slightest bit of tenderness. She would get tired of him and never pay any attention to him again.
Fortunately, his life was short. Perhaps it would not be difficult to conceal it.
He smiled slowly and said obediently: "I like my sister too."
In the evening, Chen Anzhi came to Tan Xiang Ying Yue angrily and asked angrily: "You Yuji, you are so arrogant, who allowed you to hit Si Han?"
You Yuji was sitting at a square table, trimming a red plum blossom in a narrow-mouthed red porcelain vase.
"Why are you pretending to be dumb? Didn't you say that if I agree to sign the divorce agreement, you will no longer be involved in the affairs of the harem? Why, are you going to use my mother as an excuse this time, just like you did last time when you took away the indentures of the concubines?" Chen Anzhi snorted coldly, "Or have you regretted it and don't want to divorce, so you start to dislike my concubines?"
Chen Anzhi suddenly realized: "I understand. Look at how you dressed Chun Xing, Cui Yu and Lin Yingying up! You are secretly encouraging them to dress up in a way that I don't like! Good, You Yuji, today I understand how cunning you are! Your means of winning favor are really sophisticated!"
You Yuji was stunned, and the scissors in her hand tilted, ruining a beautiful red plum blossom.
Chen Anzhi saw it and laughed, "You feel guilty because I said it right?"
You Yuji sighed lightly, put down the scissors, turned around, and looked at Chen Anzhi seriously.
It must be said that Chen Anzhi did have a handsome face. Even though You Yuji hated him very much, she had to admit that among all the princes and grandchildren, he had the most outstanding appearance. You Yuji didn't quite understand whether it was because of his outstanding appearance that he became so arrogant, or whether Nuwa paid more attention to his face when she pinched the little man, and forgot to pinch his brain.
"What are you looking at?"
"You spent a lot of money to buy Si Han in order to please Princess Que. But did you find out about their relationship beforehand?"
Chen Anzhi was stunned.
You Yuji curved her lips and said seriously, "I'm helping the prince to please Princess Que."
As Chen Anzhi left, he thought about You Yuji's words, and You Yuji's charming smile kept appearing in front of his eyes. Even though he hated this woman's unfaithfulness, Chen Anzhi had to admit that she was a seductive beauty. When she smiled at people, everything in the world lost its color, and people only had eyes for her.
After leaving Tanxiang Yingyue, Chen Anzhi went to Hongzan's room in Anxiang Courtyard as usual. Hongzan came up to serve him respectfully.
Chen Anzhi pinched Hongzan's chin and lifted her face.
The women in the backyard all knew that the prince liked elegant women, and always wore white clothes and light makeup to greet him. But Hongzan did not have a plain and elegant face, but had a natural charm. She had cloud-like hair without a red hairpin and wore loose plain clothes, which looked quite out of place.
Chen Anzhi let go of her hand and said casually, "That purple dress in your closet is pretty and suits you."
You Yuji trimmed a new red plum blossom and put it in the vase, then walked into the bedroom holding it.
Baisui squatted on a rattan chair under the window, and Sique sat on a wheelchair opposite him. He took a purple silk handkerchief of You Yuji to tease Baisui, and Baisui quickly grabbed the other end of the handkerchief and refused to let go. The man and the cat each grabbed one end of the handkerchief, fighting for it and refusing to let go, and the handkerchief was stretched into a straight line.
You Yuji looked amused, with the corners of her eyes slightly curled.
While Si Que was fighting with Baisui for the handkerchief, she asked, "Is the prince here to bother me again?"
"He's gone. He can't bother me." You Yuji put down the red plum in her arms with a smile, looked around, and thought about where to put it most appropriately.
She was in a good mood at the moment. Because in the evening, the people sent by Madam Jing sent back the news that this winter was colder than in previous years, and it often snowed heavily. The Queen Mother of the West would not return to Beijing early for the Queen Mother of the East's birthday. Time was not so tight, which made You Yuji feel a little relieved.
You Yuji finally found a place to put the red plums. She moved an embroidery stool in front of the tall cabinet, holding the vase in one hand and stepping on the embroidery stool with her skirt in the other. However, when she raised her second foot to step on the embroidery stool, she accidentally touched the hem of her skirt. It was too late for her to hold the cabinet with her skirt-lifting hand. She couldn't help but screamed and fell backwards.
"Yuanyuan!" Si Que blurted out, let go of the silk handkerchief that was pulling at Baisui, immediately stood up and rushed towards You Yuzhi, holding her steadily in his arms, and even helped her hold the vase in her hand.
The frightened Hongmei trembled.
You Yuzhi blinked and turned her head to look at Si Que's legs.

The next moment: Oops, my act of pretending to be lame has been exposed qaq
