Su Jin knew that the Empress Dowager of Zhou regarded Princess Zhaorong as a baby of her eyes. Since Princess Zhaorong left Beijing, the Empress Dowager of Zhou did not miss it for a day.
As a child, Zhaorong was lively and charming, which was very popular with empress dowager Zhou. Before Zhaorong's mother died, she entrusted Zhaorong to empress dowager Zhou. The Empress Dowager took her more than her own daughter, and even the eldest princess was far less affectionate than Princess Zhaorong.
At this time, I heard that Princess Zhaorong was slapped in the face by the queen.
"Very good. It's good for you to admit your guilt. Su Jin, the queen has disgraced the royal family. How to punish her by relying on the palace rules?" The Empress Dowager Zhou sternly said.
Su Jin hesitated for a moment: "this Relying on palace rules, we should It should be... "
Before she finished, Shen Ning had raised her head and her face was calm.
"The empress dowager, insulting the royal family's face is indeed a felony and should be severely punished. However, the Empress Dowager said just now that the minister's daughter-in-law sent someone to beat Princess Zhaorong was a blow to the royal face. The minister's daughter-in-law also wanted to ask the empress dowager, if the insult to the royal family was added, would the crime be more serious?"
The Empress Dowager of Zhou was slightly stunned, and then said angrily, "naturally, I forgot. You not only beat Zhaorong, but also scolded Zhaorong. Now you are not fighting against yourself!"
Su Jin a listen, anxious to sweat on forehead all come out, even to Shen Ning make eye color, let her speak less.
Ah, the Empress Dowager really said many mistakes. Didn't she remind the Empress Dowager to increase her punishment? The Queen's wife is usually so smart. How could she be confused today.
"Queen, you insulted and beat the princess and committed a great crime in the palace. Now the mourning family will punish you. Do you accept it?" The Empress Dowager of the Zhou Dynasty looks at Shen Ning coldly.
"After the mother, the minister and daughter-in-law of course do not accept."
Shen Ning's answer was totally unexpected.
"You What do you say The Empress Dowager thought she had heard something wrong.
Shen Ning lowered her eyebrows and her eyes, but she still kept a respectful tone and replied: "if a minister's daughter-in-law has committed a crime, it's natural that she should be punished. But not only should she be punished, but also Princess Zhaorong and her daughter-in-law."
"What nonsense are you talking about! You scold Zhaorong and beat Zhaorong. It's clearly you who should be punished. What's the relationship with Zhaorong? "
"The Empress Dowager said just now that she knows everything that happened in the imperial study. Why didn't the empress mother hear Princess Zhaorong abusing me? I am the queen who was granted by the Emperor himself. The crown on my head is worn by the Empress Dowager. If the princess insults me, it is tantamount to humiliating the emperor, the Empress Dowager and the royal family of Western Chu. Shouldn't I be punished? "
"What? I beg your pardon? How dare Zhaorong ever scold you? "
Empress Dowager Zhou did not believe her words at all, and her face became more severe.
Su Jin opened her eyes, but she couldn't believe it. Princess Zhaorong was also a child who grew up. Although she was arrogant, she knew the book and knew the reason. She would never insult the queen.
"At that time, there were not only the minister's daughter-in-law and the princess in the imperial study. Zhuifeng and Xiaosi also witnessed the process and reason of the matter. The two of them knew exactly what the princess's wife said and did. The minister and daughter-in-law would not have wronged the princess. If it had not been blocked by chasing the wind in time, then the daughter-in-law would not have appeared in front of her mother now."
