Chapter 910: Grandmother Punishes the Evil Slave!

.In the inner chamber of the main courtyard, there was a pool paved with jade stones, prepared for the master's bathing on ordinary days.At this moment, the rough maidservants were busy boiling water...Almost as soon as Princess Third and Jia Yin stepped across the threshold of Shoukang Palace, a young eunuch and maidservants came forward to greet them. They respectfully led the two women to a side hall to wait.

Two maids of high rank arrived shortly after, one in a pink jacket and the other in a green one. They were both very discerning and served tea and snacks.

The maidservant in pink said, "Princess, Young Mistress, the Empress Dowager had a hard sleep last night and woke up late this morning. She is washing and changing now, she will be here shortly, please wait a moment."

The third princess waved her hand dismissively, and the two of them retreated.

Jia Yin looked around the side hall, killing time out of boredom.

After waiting and waiting, nearly half an hour had passed. No one came to invite them or attend to them.

Princess Three stomped her slightly frozen feet and looked at Jiayin, "Is this it"

Jia Yin shrugged and smiled, "Of course. Didn't you notice There isn't a single brazier in this room, and the tea they brought us is cold."

"I reckon they're trying to break our spirits, hoping we get frostbite and become obedient afterwards."

The Third Princess slapped the table in anger, just about to unleash a torrent of insults, when suddenly she remembered something and changed her tune!

"These dogs, such brazen nerve! They dare to disrespect this Palace after Her Majesty has shown me so much love!"

As she spoke, she dashed out.

Jiayin brought water, and also Hao Grandma brought two big palace maids, who hurriedly chased after her.

Two little eunuchs were hiding not far from the door. As soon as the Third Princess came out, their faces changed, and they even wanted to turn around and run to report, but the Third Princess grabbed them both.

"What are you running for After bullying this palace, you still want to run! You all wait to die!"

The little eunuch was so scared his face turned pale, he screamed, "Sister Moju, help!"

Soon, the two maids hurried over.

The two bowed respectfully and performed their greetings. The pink-clad maid, speaking in a hushed voice, urged, "Your Highness, if there is anything we have done improperly, please instruct us. But the Empress Dowager has a headache and is resting. Please refrain from speaking loudly."

“You mean I’m being unreasonable” Princess Three glared, poking her fingers at the noses of the two maids. “I, Princess Three, came here with County Master Kang Le to pay respects to our grandmother. You bunch of dog slaves left us in a side hall for half an hour! No hot tea, no charcoal brazier! What are you thinking”

The young maid in a pink robe, also known as Mokiku, was not afraid. She bowed gracefully and politely apologized.

"Your Highness, we maids were so busy this morning, passing things between each other carelessly, that we may have forgotten these. With the Empress Dowager feeling unwell, we naturally worry and must have been negligent in many ways. Please forgive our mistakes, Your Highness."

Once or twice is enough, it's too obvious to use this phrase to put pressure on someone.

"Filial piety is paramount."

Even if the Third Princess was domineering, hearing the words "The Empress Dowager is uncomfortable" should make her swallow her pride and behave.

Otherwise, it means being unfilial, not caring about your grandmother's illness.

Although the two palace maids and the eunuch were bowing their heads, the corners of their mouths were turned up, clearly showing that they were confident that the Third Princess couldn't do anything to them.

Unfortunately, they didn't know that the Third Princess was no longer the naive and foolish girl she used to be.

Now is the time for green tea training!

Just listen to the third princess say: “You bunch of dog slaves, neglecting this palace is one thing, but you even dare to neglect your imperial grandmother!”

"We... we didn't!" Mo Ju was taken aback by the Third Princess's sudden accusation.

Before she could react, the Third Princess chided, “What's there to be surprised about! You must have been as negligent as before, failing to attend properly to Her Royal Grandmother. You didn’t provide her with a charcoal brazier or hot tea, so she caught a cold and now has a headache!”

"No!" Mo Ju wanted to explain, but the Third Princess commanded Shui Ling, "Punish these heartless and ungrateful maids! To think that Her Royal Grandmother treated them so well, yet they dared to disrespect her!"

Shui Ling was already consumed by hatred, her heart burning with rage.

Had she known her master was coming, she would have put on his thickest cloak for him.

If the master had been frozen to death, how could she explain it to her family!

All these bold-faced lackeys!

She practically flew to the front in two steps, kicking both of the maids directly into the courtyard with one kick each.

Two little eunuchs were terrified and tried to run away, but Shui Ling grabbed their collars and threw them out, smashing them into two big palace maids!

Grandma Hao and the others secretly gasped, instinctively retreating to their mistress's side.

The maidservant brought by Princess Kangning, unexpectedly knows martial arts!

How could they not see it

Water Spirit didn't care how they reacted. She directly jumped into the courtyard and kicked both the two maids and the two eunuchs around like balls.

And, she specifically kicks her belly.

The belly is soft and not easily broken. No matter how many kicks it takes, it only results in some bruises.

But the intestines and internal organs inside are very vulnerable. If even one is injured, they would be in grave danger!

The maidservants and eunuchs cried out in pain, immediately causing a commotion that turned Shoukang Palace upside down.

At this time, many people came to the palace gate again, they were all the concubines of the inner court.

Today is the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, and tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Whether in the city or the palace, there will be displays of flower lanterns and colorful lanterns.

The city naturally held the lantern market on the commercial street, with every store setting up stalls, hanging lanterns, and guessing riddles. This happened year after year, with no exception.

But the palace was not in order. Previously, the Empress presided over it, but this year the Empress has been "seriously ill" for a long time, leaving a vacancy.

Therefore, the concubines who would give greetings to the Empress Dowager on the first and fifteenth day of every month would arrive a day earlier, hoping that the Empress Dowager would designate one person among them.

Actually, it doesn't necessarily mean that the Empress will only become the next empress after she passes away just because someone else took her place as host of the Lantern Festival.

But this is always an honor, a good opportunity to be seen.

As a result, as soon as they entered Shoukang Palace, they were so shocked by the scene before them that they covered their mouths.

This is Shou Kang Palace, not a martial arts arena.

But what caused this pitiful and ferocious one-sided beating

Jia Yin glanced at the doorway and quickly tugged on the third princess's sleeve, then nodded her head slightly towards the main hall entrance.

The third princess understood, picked up her skirt, and ran crying into the house.

"Wah, grandmother! Your granddaughter is here to see you! Don't be afraid, these dog officials dare to bully you, your granddaughter will kill them and avenge you!"

The old nanny by the Empress Dowager's side heard the commotion and was walking outside, just as she bumped into the third princess.

The third princess pushed her forward, and the old nanny crashed straight into the doorframe. Her head was struck with a sharp pain, and stars danced before her eyes.

Jia Yin gave Shui Ling a wink, and Shui Ling scurried back behind her, looking prim and proper, completely unlike the ruthless warrior she had been just moments ago.

The Empress Dowager was sitting in the house drinking tea, of course she wasn't sick.

The Third Princess suddenly barged in, not giving the Empress Dowager a chance to speak, and threw herself into her arms, sobbing.

The Empress Dowager was startled and looked toward the door, but alas, Granny was still unconscious.

And at this time, Jia Yin and the court ladies also rushed in.

"What on earth is going on!" The Empress Dowager's face turned cold as she sternly rebuked, "Third Princess, you are being too presumptuous. What are you crying about in front of me this morning"

The third princess wasn't afraid of her and just waited for her to ask, then she started talking non-stop.he cup. 。When Li Lao'er received it, she seemed to have accidentally scratched his palm with her finger. 。Li Lao'er was startled, his hand loosened, and the teacup fell onto his leg. The tea soaked hi...
