Chapter 440 Concubine Yi takes action
It was just a misunderstanding, but he actually dared to do this. It seems that I am too gentle!
Thinking of the Thirteenth Prince's decisive and ruthless actions, she remembered what the Thirteenth Prince had said at that time: If you are not going to take action, don't be ambiguous; if you are going to punish, you must be harsh; only then can people respect you and be able to distinguish between superiors and inferiors!
In fact, Kangxi, Concubine Yi and many concubines in the harem had told her about this before, but it was difficult for her to accept the fact that she would hurt others at every turn. As a person who grew up under the red flag, this kind of self-restraint has been engraved in her bones. Even if she has adapted to the current status of a slave, it will still take some time for her to get used to hurting and killing people.
When she read novels, she often said that others were saintly, but when it came to herself, she really found it difficult to make a decision. However, if she didn't make a decision, she would suffer the consequences. This was not the equal afterlife, but the Qing Dynasty!
The Qing Dynasty with its feudal system of hierarchy!
She was Dong'e from the Manchu clan and the ninth wife of the ninth prince of the Qing dynasty, Aisin-Gioro Yin'er!
Wen Yao's mind gradually became clear, and she made a decision. She could not punish the mastermind behind the scenes because of his identity, but she would not keep the servants who helped her. She would use them to make an example of him!
As for the person behind the scenes, it's a pity. When Wen Yao thought of the other party's identity, she knew that if this happened, that person would not be severely punished. However, even if she knew this, she still had to try her best!
There will be no severe punishment when no harm is caused, but what if it is?
Wen Yao decisively denied her own idea. She knew that her brain was no match for those big guys in the harem. As long as she took action, those big guys would definitely know about it. So, forget it!
In Yikun Palace, Concubine Yi called the Fifth Lady over and asked directly without beating around the bush. At this moment, the Fifth Lady knelt on the ground and said, "Mother, I know that person did it on purpose and never thought of murdering my ninth brother's wife."
"Who is that person?" Concubine Yi didn't want to ask these questions. She knew there was no jealousy, but she was also very clear about whether there was jealousy or not, so she didn't want to ask about this point. She only asked who was the person behind the scenes?
"Mother, I don't know, that person is a palace maid," Fifth Lady shook her head, "Mother~"
"Ruoxiang, please think about your mother's family before you do anything. As for the other things, I don't think it's necessary to say them. Qiuling, please arrange for someone to draw the person according to what Ruoxiang said, and find that person for me as soon as possible." Concubine Yi hasn't been so angry for a long time. Even when something happened in Yinqi's mansion, she had never been so angry!
This man actually dared to touch her two daughters-in-law. He really doesn't take her, Concubine Yi, seriously!
Qiu Ling came in from outside and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Concubine from Qixiang Palace has sent someone here, and she has someone holding a palace maid down beside her."
"Let someone in." Concubine Yi's eyes flickered slightly, "Ruoxiang, get up and sit aside."
A group of people followed Qiu Ling in. Ruo Xiang's eyes lit up, "Mother, it's her! The palace maid who was pinned down!"
Concubine Yi understood that Concubine He had come to do her a favor!
"Greetings to Concubine Yi. My slave's master said that this person might be what Concubine Yi needs. My slave's master likes Ninth Lady very much," the nanny bent down slightly and explained the matter clearly, "Give the person to Aunt Qiu Ling."
"Go back and tell your master that I will go to Qixiang Palace when I am free. I haven't seen Concubine He for a while. If she is free, please come and talk to me more often. I am very bored," Concubine Yi said with a smile.
"Yes, I will convey it. If Your Majesty is fine, I will take my leave," the nanny replied respectfully.
"Well, go back. I would like to thank Concubine He again for her help," Concubine Yi nodded. As she watched the people in Concubine He's palace leave, the smile on her face disappeared.
Concubine Yi walked over and looked at the palace maid who was pressed to her knees on the ground. "Whose person are you? Let me tell you the rules of my place first. If you commit a crime here, your family will not be safe. Unless I forgive you personally, I will exterminate your entire clan even if it means I lose my favor. Have you asked about what I have done before you do anything?"
She has been arrogant since she entered the palace, and she doesn't know what it means to bow her head. The worst that happened was that she fell out of favor, but none of those who had harmed her got away with it. All of her family members as slaves were killed, and her masters' families fell out of favor and disappeared over the years!
She only felt a little aggrieved with her mother, but other than that she had never been wronged!
As for now, that is even more impossible, because she has a powerful daughter-in-law. With the help of her daughter-in-law, she will never fall out of favor, nor will she be punished!
She is totally different from the Concubine De back then!
So although Concubine Yi is low-key now, in essence, she is becoming more and more arrogant because of her low-key attitude!
"Qiu Ling, arrange for people to send all her family members to the farm without exception. If she refuses to tell us, kill one a day until all are killed," Concubine Yi walked slowly to her seat and started drinking tea.
"I say it, I say it!" The palace maid didn't expect that she would be caught by Concubine Yi so soon. After all, she was planning to leave the palace. She said she could leave after doing this thing. Even if she didn't leave the palace, she would be willing to exchange her life for a good life for her family!
"Qiu Ling, arrange for someone to go!" Concubine Yi didn't listen to what the palace maid said at all and continued to give orders calmly.
The Fifth Lady stood aside, thoughtfully watching Concubine Yi's actions carefully, and from time to time she watched the palace maids below gradually change from calm to panic.
Concubine Yi held the teacup, holding the lid on the side of the teacup with one hand, took a sip and put it down, looking at the Fifth Lady, "We need to test the people they care about the most little by little. As for whether their family members are the ones they care about, it depends on whether they are willing to say it. As for whether it is true or not, we need to verify it. If it is false, then all the people related to them will be killed. If it is true, then we will do what we promised." Concubine Yi raised her eyelids slightly, glanced at the expressions of the palace maids below, and then still smiled gently at the Fifth Lady, "Do you understand?"
"Thank you, mother for your teaching. I understand," Fifth Lady straightened her back a lot when she knew that Concubine Yi was teaching her. She didn't expect to gain so much this time. Mother was so confident in everything she did, as if everything was within her expectations!
When will she be able to be so calm!
After a while, Concubine Yi let the maid continue to speak. When she heard what the maid said, the smile on Concubine Yi's face disappeared, "Crown Prince's Concubine Li Jia?"
Concubine Yi frowned. Why would this person attack Wen Yao?
This is totally unrelated! You are crazy!
Concubine Yi looked at the maid and said, "You must know the price of lying to me. Tell me why Li Jia is so jealous of Ninth Lady. As far as I know, Ninth Lady has no connection with your master Li Jia."
Concubine Yi stared at the maid, and saw that her expression did not seem fake, but who knew if it was fake or not? Concubine Yi's face did not show any panic or disbelief, but only a little doubt. "Tell me what you know. You can't save your life, but your family can. It depends on whether you can make me believe you."
