Chapter 661 A Sudden Punishment
Concubine Yan was the first to speak immediately: "Your Majesty, I know that Your Majesty has brought two young ladies back to the house, so I just wanted to take a look, but Sister Yuan scared the two young ladies to tears..."
"What are you talking about, sister? You clearly scared the two young ladies to tears, why are you blaming me? Sister Xiao and Sister Yu here both saw it!"
"What's so scary about me? My sister hasn't seen it yet, but the little lady is crying almost silently in your arms..."
"It's not all your fault!"
"It's obviously you, sister..."
"Enough!" shouted coldly, Rong Su grimaced in disgust, and moved forward to the two concubines.
The concubines on both sides suddenly showed pitiful expressions, waiting for the prince to make the decision for them.
But the cold man just stretched out his hand, picked up the poor girl, and held her in his arms.
The little girl is really scared now.
Even though he usually dislikes the Seventh Young Master, at this moment, the Seventh Young Master is like a god, saving people in danger.
The little girl immediately threw her head into Rong Su's arms. The little girl's soft little hands, as if grasping a life-saving straw, grasped the lapel of his clothes, and continued to tremble and sob in his arms.
Rong Su patted the girl on the back and coaxed, "It's okay."
The little girl was crying so hard that she hiccupped. When she heard him speak, she raised her head. Her little red face was full of tears. She held her mouth in frustration and said in a dull voice: "Go home... I want to go home..."
Rong Su's warm thumb wiped away the girl's tears and said softly: "Not yet."
The little girl held her mouth shut and cried again.
Rong Su could only continue to pat the little girl's back, then turned his gaze to Aunt Xiao.
Aunt Xiao shivered with fright and quickly let go of the big girl in her arms.
The big girl ran over in a hurry and hid behind Rong Sui. Her big eyes were filled with tears, but the big girl was very strong. She squeezed her sleeves and wiped away the tears by herself.
When the girl raised her hand, Rong Su's gaze just fell, and he could clearly see the red mark on the girl's wrist.
Rong Su narrowed his black eyes, grabbed the big girl's hand, opened the sleeve and took a look, and sure enough, it was full of red and purple pinch marks.
He looked back again to see the girl's hand.
Compared to the older girl, the scars on the younger girl's hands were more obvious. Many places were already turning purple and bloody, which looked particularly serious.
Holding the girl tighter, Rong Su directed his cold gaze at the four people in front of him.
Miss Yu had already lowered her head politely, trying to reduce her presence as much as possible.
The original concubine and the concubine Yan were still focused on competing for favor, and were completely unaware of the coldness in the prince's eyes.
However, Aunt Xiao saw something, but she was not sure. Finally, she did not want to be left behind, so she also rushed to look at Rong Su, hoping that the prince would look at her more.
Rong Su's freezing voice sounded at this moment: "Here comes someone!"
The few boys who had been waiting outside the door immediately came in and bowed their heads respectfully to obey the order.
Rong Su said with a calm face: "The original Concubine and Concubine Yan have bad moral conduct and do not know the general principles. They are punished with a three-month ban and a copy of three hundred female precepts. Aunt Xiao is disrespectful and unbecoming. They are banned for two months and have to copy a Buddhist scripture. Hundreds..." After saying this, he looked at Miss Yu again and saw that she was just standing there obediently and silently. Rong Su's displeasure subsided a little and he avoided this person.
The sudden punishment shocked everyone.
Rong Su did not explain, and ignored the stunned expressions of several people. He just hugged the little girl and led the big girl, turned around and left.
After this incident, within just an hour, the news spread throughout the country that the prince punished two concubines and an aunt for the sake of the two young ladies he brought back yesterday.
Everyone who was originally ready to make a move or have something to think about has stopped thinking, and they are cautious and wait and see what happens.
At the same time, there are also many people who are more urgently asking who the prince and whom these two new young ladies are.
If the prince treats these two young ladies so kindly, how much threat will their mother pose to them if they appear?
It's night, the bright moon is shrouded outside the window, and the shadows of the trees are dancing.
Rong Su stood outside the long corridor outside the house, dismissed the guards and servants, and just stayed there, looking at the wing next door.
After today's incident, Rong Su did not place the older girl and the younger girl alone, but arranged them next to his room. Although it was a bit against the rules, thinking about it, only by following him could he avoid the messy and dirty things in the backyard.
Just after midnight, the moonlight was beautiful, and I heard a creak in the side room next to me, and the door was pushed open.
Rong Su turned his head and looked without surprise, and sure enough, he saw the short little girl walking this way dimly with her eyes closed, taking advantage of the darkness of night.
Walking in front of Rong Su, the girl seemed to pause for a moment, and then, as if she had eyes, she stretched out her hand to him.
After being separated for more than a month, this scene actually makes people nostalgic.
He bent down, picked up the child clearly, and held it in his arms.
Unlike the struggle and dissatisfaction during the day, the sleeping little girl was particularly dependent on him.
Putting her short little hands around his neck, Rong Su slightly raised the corners of his mouth, smiled silently, and asked, "Did you also look for me when we were staying in the backyard last night?"
The little girl didn't speak, just put her head in his arms, paused for a long time, and then nodded slightly.
"did not find?"
The little girl shook her head.
Rong Su smiled again and said, "I won't let you go any further from now on."
If it's too far away, you really can't find it.
Carrying the little girl back to his room to sleep, and closing the door, Rong Su thought, maybe these days, once night falls, no one can be left outside his house.
I just hope that the rest of the house will be tightly guarded so that no one can take advantage of it.
The moonlight was hazy and the breeze was blowing. At midnight, not only Rong Su but also two others were still awake at midnight.
Two Qingjun men dressed as bodyguards took out their waistbands and entered the palace from the imperial city.
All the way is unobstructed, you can come and go as you please.
Only after entering the inner palace did the two of them look at each other. In the end, Liu Wei wanted to put on a show and asked, "Where does your fifth brother live?"
Since you want to visit a doctor, you have to really take a look.
Rong Leng knew that Liu Wei's heart was not here, but he still replied: "Zhaoning Palace."
Since the incident, Rong Fei has not been allowed to leave the palace by the queen, lest he have another accident.
Liu Wei groaned and looked around, a little confused: "Where is Zhaoning Palace?"
Rong Leng didn't say any more, he just held the pregnant Liu Wei firmly sideways, suddenly jumped into the air, and the two of them disappeared in the blink of an eye.
He ducked under the eaves and easily avoided the patrolling guards. It took him a quarter of an hour to arrive at Zhaoning Palace.
After finding Rong Fei's room, the two of them pushed the door open without pausing, then turned around and closed the door.
There was a "clang" and the door closed so loudly that Rong Fei, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened.
"who!"
Rong Fei sat up neatly, his energetic appearance did not look like he was seriously injured.
