Chapter 911: There's Really Nothing to Say!

y, waved her hand dismissively. "Don't worry, Mrs. Zhou. Today's disturbance was caused by the Yan family. You are the wife of Mr. Zhou, and our families still know the difference."Mrs. Zhou smiled bi...Finally, she tugged on the Empress Dowager's sleeve and said, "Grandmother Empress, your granddaughter knows that you are usually kind and compassionate, unwilling to meddle with these maidservants. But those who deserve punishment should be punished."

They left the granddaughter and Princess Kangning in the cold side hall for half an hour. They also neglected you, causing you to come down with a headache!

"My granddaughter will give them a good thrashing they'll remember! Next time they dare do this, my granddaughter will have Father send troops to cut off the heads of every single person in Shou Kang Palace, and get you a new batch of loyal and diligent servants!"

The Empress Dowager frowned fiercely, forcing herself not to throw the Third Princess out. She still had to speak.

Jia Yin quickly chimed in, “Yes, Empress Dowager. Your Majesty favors your servant, yesterday I went to the palace to accompany the Princess. This morning, just after waking up, the Princess pulled me here to greet you.”

It was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but these meddling servants, with their blind eyes, have interfered and made things difficult for us, treating us harshly.

Those who know Empress Dowager Ci’s benevolence and kindness would say these maidservants have committed the cardinal sin of insubordination. Those who don’t know would probably say that you, Grandmother, are intentionally mistreating the princesses and court ladies.

The princess and her maids could not bear to see the Empress Dowager being slandered by these servants, their ancestral ties being severed by these servants. In a moment of panic, they reprimanded them severely.

"Your Majesty, you are so wise and loving towards your younger generations. You definitely won't hold a grudge against us, will you"

Then the Third Princess chimed in, "Grandmother Empress, is your headache still bothering you Would you like me to rub it for you"

"You are the best grandmother in the world, you wouldn't bear to see your granddaughter freeze, would you It's all these dogs and servants causing trouble, isn't it"

"Grandmother must punish them, otherwise in the future when granddaughters and princesses come often, they will continue to be so disrespectful. People outside will say that Grandmother bullies juniors and uses underhanded tactics!"

"Grandmother, you're not that kind of person. Your granddaughter is speaking up for you, defending your honor!"

The Empress Dowager felt a sharp pain in her chest, so intense that she almost coughed up blood.

At this point, she naturally couldn't admit that the maidservants were acting on her orders. Otherwise, wouldn't she be admitting to making life difficult for her granddaughter and using underhanded tactics

If we have to do this, then the maids will have to shoulder all of it. We'll just have to endure a little more hardship, otherwise, Third Princess will truly go to the Emperor and replace all the maids in Shou Kang Palace. Then she won't have any help left.

She forced a smile and said, "Grandmother's getting on in years. These past few days, she hasn't been feeling well. I truly didn't know the people below were so bold as to mistreat you all."

"But Grandmother is used to being waited on, we can't change that. So, when Grandmother has some free time, she will give them a good set of rules!"

The third princess glanced at Jiayin, seeing that Jiayin nodded slightly, she quickly accepted the situation, got up and bowed to the empress dowager.

"Well then, Grandmother is happy. Since you've been weary from your journey last night and are feeling a headache now, your granddaughter and the County Princess won't bother you. Rest well, we'll accompany Grandmother to admire the lanterns tomorrow."

Having said that, she did not forget to sternly instruct the consorts, "Ladies, please don't trouble Imperial Grandmother too much. Just say a few words and return."

"Whoever dares to make the Empress Dowager worry, this palace will report to the Emperor! The Emperor is so filial, when the time comes and he gets angry, don't blame yourselves."

The other concubines really wanted to roll their eyes at her. They walked in and witnessed a whole show, not saying a word, but instead ending up with two warnings.

What's going on here!

But they dared not refuse either. Lately, the third princess had been favored by the Emperor, and if they offended her, it would be disastrous if she spoke ill of them to the Emperor.

So, everyone responded in a low voice.

The Third Princess immediately pulled Jiayin along, summoned Grandma Hao and the others, and left Shoukang Palace.

Not until they rounded the corner of the palace wall, where no one else was in sight, did Princess Three perk up and exclaim, "Jia Yin, your idea is brilliant! You taught those dogs a lesson, and Imperial Grandmother can't even be angry! She's probably so choked with rage she might just spit blood!"

Jiayin pulled her cloak tight, leaving only her fair and delicate face exposed. She smiled playfully and replied, "That's why you were always called arrogant before. You were too straightforward."

"A soft knife is better, isn't it Remember to practice more later!"

The Third Princess nodded repeatedly, unable to help but tousle Jia Yin's hair a few times, and said with emotion: "You see, we are only two years apart in age. Why are you so much smarter than me!"

"Oh dear, my hair is a mess!" Jia Yin quickly dodged her clutches and cautioned, "We only caught them off guard today. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to fool them in the future. After all, anyone can use underhanded tactics."

"But we are young, and that's our biggest advantage. We can't really fight back against her. We'll just cry and run out of Shoukang Palace. Within an hour, everyone in the palace will know we were bullied. See where she puts her old face then!"

Of course, this involves another big killer: rumors!

"We have done some things just now, but it's not finished yet. Hurry up and find people to spread the word everywhere."

It is said that the Empress Dowager was too kind and indulgent, allowing the servants to act presumptuously. They dared to mistreat even a princess visiting from Shou Kang Palace.

The Empress Dowager fell ill and demanded that the Emperor replace all the maidservants in Shoukang Palace.

"Can this work Just now..." The third princess wanted to say that it sounded a bit fake, but Jia Yin caught her chance and ruffled her hair several times.

Jia Yin lowered her voice and complained, "Are you stupid How many rumors in the world are true There were so many people just now, the Empress Dowager couldn't get angry. But after this, who knows how she will scheme against us!"

These rumors spread, and even if the Empress Dowager didn't want to, she had to punish the servants of Shou Kang Palace to show everyone that she was in control. Otherwise, Emperor would have a real reason to replace all the servants in Shou Kang Palace.

The Empress Dowager perhaps felt that it was only right for servants to sacrifice themselves for their masters. But the servants in Shoukang Palace were wronged, they suffered beatings and took the blame from beginning to end.

"Later on, we'll go again. At least they won't dare to be careless. Even if the Empress Dowager schemes against us, they'll have to hold back, afraid of whether they succeed or fail, worried about their own misfortune. It's them who will suffer the consequences, giving us a chance to fight back."

The Third Princess's jaw dropped slightly as she looked at Jia Yin, her eyes filled with a mix of awe and astonishment.

Jia Yin didn't care what she was thinking. She burrowed deeper into her cloak and cried out, "Go back already! You talked a big game but didn't even give me a reward! I feel so cheated."

"Hehehe, we're good sisters, right Asking for money would hurt our feelings." Princess Three quickly stepped forward, taking Jia Yin's arm and walking back. She didn't forget to instruct Hao Mama, "Mama Hao, you go tell someone to spread the word."

Grandma Hao readily agreed, but felt helpless in her heart.

She tried her best to persuade the princess, speaking with all sincerity and care. But the princess simply wouldn't listen to a word.

The county princess, despite her scolding and joking manner, actually learned earnestly!

Where are you going to reason with them!

Soon, everyone left.

A cold wind blew through, swirling snowflakes as it raced by.

The snowdrift in the corner suddenly moved, and then a thin man covered in white leaped out. After a few jumps, he vanished without a trace. Zhongliang's eyes lit up. Jia Xu chased after, "Has the roster for the academy been finalized I wonder if there's room to add people, I want to go too!"Jiarren shook his head, "Our family's fishing b...
