Chapter 1108 Punishing Nangong Yu (5)
Nangong Yu was indignant, but in order to impress her mother, she endured it and followed the arrangements of the two maids.
These two teaching maids were extremely strict. As soon as she arrived at Chaoyue Palace, they began to teach Nangong Yu etiquette, from walking to talking. From eating to dressing, she was not allowed to slack off.
Nangong Yu knelt down and kowtowed from time to time, and was exhausted. At night, she was ordered to copy "Nu Xun" and "Nu Ze" in the dark.
Nangong Yu was punished by Empress Mu, and this matter was naturally spread to Yukun Palace under Luoxue's arrangement.
When Empress Dowager Mo heard that her daughter was punished by Empress Mu, she went to her daughter's palace immediately regardless of the dark.
As soon as she arrived at Chaoyue Palace, Empress Dowager Mo saw her daughter copying "Nu Ze" with her head down under the supervision of two old women. She immediately became furious and stepped forward to ask about the cause and effect of the matter.
Nangong Yu was naturally full of grievances when she saw her mother. She repeated what happened during the day to Queen Mother Mo with tears in her eyes. However, when describing it, she described her deliberate attack on Caiwei as a way to please her, but ended up flattering the horse and hitting the horse's hoof, causing her to be punished innocently.
Mothers in the world will inevitably favor their children, and Queen Mother Mo is no exception.
Hearing that her daughter flattered her sister-in-law pitifully but failed to flatter her, and was punished instead, Queen Mother Mo did not consider the truth of the matter. She was furious and asked people to go to Chenggan Palace to find Nangong Yi and Mu Caiwei. She wanted to have a good talk with the woman.
From childhood to adulthood, her daughter was her little cotton-padded jacket, and she had been growing up under the care of her and Nangong Yi. Even with the covetous eyes of Concubine Jin and the prince, Nangong Yu had never suffered any grievances. For more than ten years, as a proud daughter of heaven, she had always been flattered by others. When had she ever flattered others? Now, her daughter actually lowered her status and carefully flattered Mu Caiwei in public, but accidentally hit the horse's hoof. Mu Caiwei's severe punishment without regard for her face really made her lungs explode.
In her mind, Mu Caiwei, as a sister-in-law, although younger than Nangong Yu, should be more tolerant and humble to her younger sister-in-law. Even if her younger sister-in-law did something wrong, couldn't she just say it? Besides, her younger sister-in-law said those wrong words to please her, so why should she be so unreasonable and send a nanny to humiliate her in a big way?
If the nanny came to the palace to teach her the rules, what would others think of it if it got out? What would they think? Wouldn't Chaoyue's reputation be even worse? Which noble family would be willing to marry her?
As a sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, she didn't even show this little bit of kindness, so how could she be worthy of being her daughter-in-law and Chaoyue's sister-in-law?
When Chen Shangxi rushed to Chenggan Palace to invite Nangong Yi and Caiwei, Nangong Yi had just finished listening to Caiwei's narration of the whole story. Hearing the Queen Mother's summons, the two immediately dressed up and went to Chaoyue Palace...
The moon on the 15th was full on the 16th
Under the clear and watery moonlight, the two held hands and walked slowly towards Chaoyue Palace instead of sitting in a sedan chair.
The night breeze blew, bringing bursts of flower fragrance. The two walked together, talking casually.
"Nangong Yi, tell me, will the Queen Mother get angry with me later!"
"Yes!"
"Then will you help me?"
"Heh..."
Nangong Yi laughed, put his arm around her slender waist, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Is there any benefit in helping you?"
Caiwei was stunned: "Benefits? What benefits?"
