Chapter 962: Rhetorical Sophistry

As soon as the three of them saw Nangong Rou, they knew that they could quibble, so they hurriedly quibbled.

Nangong Rou suddenly sighed, stepped forward and held the eldest princess's hand cordially, "Imperial sister, they shouldn't be so bold, did you hear it wrong?" Or maybe they're just joking and don't dare to really do that kind of thing. Or, for the sake of my face, if the punishment is lighter, they will be punished for not being allowed to eat tonight, and the entire palace will be cleaned up? ”

Being supported by Nangong Rouyi, the eldest princess suddenly hesitated.

The relationship between the two has always been very good, Nangong Rou said this, she really didn't want to lose her face.

She hesitated.

It's really hard to refuse a personal debt.

"Sister Huang, they tried to poison people in Liwang's Mansion, this is not a place where you can talk about human feelings. This kind of thing is unkind, and they have prejudices against their masters. Believe it or not, if you spare them today, not only will they not be grateful, but they will become resentful and continue to have poisonous intentions. What if they poison you, the eldest sister, or the prince? Yun Ruoyue saw that the eldest princess hesitated, so she reminded her coldly.

"Sister, they are all my people, what do you call them? When you question their character, you question mine. If you generously spare them today, they will only be grateful to you and treat you better, how dare they harm others again? Moreover, they are just joking, they don't have that much courage at all, you poison them one by one, as if they have committed a heinous crime! Have you found a handle and want to dispose of my people? Before the eldest princess could speak, Nangong Rou had already brushed her sleeves and said angrily.

The eldest princess glanced at her.

She hasn't discovered that Rou'er, who has always been gentle as water, will have such a fierce side.

Yun Ruoyue smiled coldly, "Are you kidding? Who would joke with someone else's net worth? They can take laxatives today, poison tomorrow! Those who dare to harm the concubine today will dare to harm the concubine tomorrow. This kind of bad-hearted subordinate must be completely eliminated, and he cannot stay in the palace, so as not to leave endless disasters! ”

"Sister, they have all served in the palace for many years, they are the old people of the palace, and they have no merit and hard work. Are you going to exterminate them because they are my people? If they are beaten and driven out of the palace, who dares to ask for them, and what awaits them is only a dead end. Could it be that if I have a concubine, I can't protect my subordinates? Sister, I know that you have always been resentful of me, last time I embroidered a silk handkerchief for you, you didn't want it, you probably thought I would poison that silk handkerchief, right? Am I that vicious? I knelt down to you and begged for your forgiveness, but the Qiqi deliberately poured water on me. According to your rules, is this Qiqi also to be disposed of, and also to play 20 boards and expel from Liwang's Mansion? Nangong Rou suddenly burst into tears when she thought of the sad thing.

The eldest princess also knew about Nangong Rou being splashed with footwater by Qiqi last time, and she comforted her at that time.

Seeing that she was crying uncomfortably, she patted her shoulder and comforted: "Rou'er, don't be sad, the nature of Qiqi's foot washing water is different from their poisoning, Qiqi was careless, but they did it on purpose, and the two can't be confused." However, I understand your feelings, anyone who is splashed with footwater will be sad. ”
