Chapter 669: Where to Go for Cardamom

Looking at Shen Zhinian's majestic face, Concubine Dun complained in her heart, but she did not dare to express her dissatisfaction at all.

She knelt on the ground and cried, "I have raised the Third Prince for so long, and I have long noticed that his development is much slower than other children. I didn't take it to heart at first."

"After all, which mother doesn't love her own child? In my heart, the Third Prince is naturally good in everything."

"But on the day of his first birthday, everyone could see how slow he was. Even when he was doing his birthday celebration, he needed me to guide him for a long time."

"And the Fourth Prince is so lovely, and every smile of his can capture people's hearts. In comparison, the Third Prince seems even more..."

"I was confused for a moment, so I became jealous and wanted to make the virtuous concubine suffer a little..."

"I really know I was wrong, please forgive me, Madam Concubine!"

Looking at Concubine Dun kneeling on the ground and crying, Concubine Liang's eyes flashed with pity, and she sighed and said, "Even if the Third Prince's aptitude is not as good as the Fourth Prince's, he is also a dragon seed, a descendant of the royal family."

"Sister Dunpin, how can you be jealous of Concubine Xian just because you think the Third Prince is not as good as the Fourth Prince? You are so confused!"

Concubine Dun cried pitifully: "I know I was wrong! I really know I was wrong!"

"I beg you, Empress Xianfei and Empress Liangfei, to give me another chance because I cared too much about the Third Prince and made a mistake in a moment of confusion!"

There is already a grudge between Concubine Dun and Concubine Xian. Instead of getting rid of Concubine Dun, it is better to think about how to utilize her remaining value.

Concubine Liang showed sympathy: "Although Sister Dunpin did something wrong in this matter, no one is perfect. It is a great virtue to admit your mistakes and correct them."

"Xianfei, the Third Prince is still so young, he cannot be without his mother's care. Considering that this is her first offense and no one else is hurt, we might as well give her another chance."

"I wonder what you think?"

Concubine Dun looked at Concubine Liang with gratitude: "Thank you, Concubine Liang! Thank you, Concubine Liang!"

Shen Zhinian sneered in his heart.

Concubine Liang’s plan was really good.

As a victim, Concubine Liang was so magnanimous that she forgave Concubine Dun. If she continued to hold on to the incident, wouldn't she appear to be narrow-minded and intolerant?

And just like Concubine Liang said, no one else was injured this time, so Concubine Dun deserved it.

She won't be punished too severely.

With Concubine Liang's kindness and magnanimity as a backdrop, if Shen Zhinian is unwilling to let Concubine Dun go, Concubine Dun will definitely only hate her.

However... Concubine Liang forgot one thing.

Although the two of them had the power to assist in managing the six palaces, they were not queens after all. The emperor had the final say on how to deal with the high-ranking concubines.

Shen Zhinian hid the dark color in his eyes and said with a smile: "What Concubine Liang said makes sense."

"Considering that the Third Prince is still young and Concubine Dun is a first-time offender, I will plead for you in front of His Majesty."

"Dunpin, I hope you can reform yourself and don't do it again."

Anyway, who wouldn't say nice things? How could outsiders know whether she had pleaded for Concubine Dun in front of Nangong Xuanyu?

With a look of gratitude and shame on her face, Concubine Dun lowered her head and said, "Thank you, my ladies, for your magnanimity!"

"I will definitely remember the teachings of the virtuous concubine and do good deeds with my whole heart!"

Shen Zhinian looked at Doukou who looked nervous.

This palace maid exposed Concubine Dun. If she continued to stay in Yikun Palace, she might have fallen into Concubine Dun's hands.

Seeing Shen Zhinian looking over, Doukou kowtowed repeatedly and said, "My Lady Concubine, I am willing to serve you in your palace, even if it is just to be a maid!"

This statement is similar to what Chu Xiyan said at the beginning.

However...not everyone in Shen Zhinian's palace wants her.

Chu Xiyan and Liu Shiqing have an irreconcilable feud. Their original purpose of entering the palace was to take revenge on each other.

She endured in Yongshou Palace for so long, and finally exposed Liu Shiqing, which was not considered betrayal at all.

The situation with cardamom is completely different.

From another perspective... Who among the concubines in the palace didn't have some shameful things in their hands? Shen Zhinian didn't dare to say that she was completely clean.

If Handan and Fuqiu ever tell what she has done for their own benefit... Shen Zhinian would never dare to use such a palace maid.

Of course, Doukou's final betrayal saved Shen Zhinian a lot of trouble and also completely exposed Dunpin's actions. Shen Zhinian would naturally help her.

"The number of palace maids in Zhongcui Palace is full. I will transfer you to Ruyi Pavilion to organize the scrolls. Are you willing?"

Doukou knew that Ruyi Pavilion was now under the jurisdiction of Concubine Xian. Although it was relatively remote, it was also far away from the disputes in the harem.

Soon, she would be 25 years old. It would be best for her to spend her last years in the palace in a place away from the world.

Doukou kowtowed repeatedly and said, "I am willing! I am willing! Thank you, Empress Xianfei!"

She couldn't help but feel lucky at this moment. Fortunately, she made the right choice. Otherwise, if something happened, Concubine Dun might not be in any danger, but she would definitely die!

Shen Zhinian raised her eyes to look at Concubine Dun and asked slowly, "I have transferred the head maid of Yikun Palace away. Do you have any objection, Concubine Dun?"

Concubine Dun understood that Concubine Xian was warning her that Doukou had come under Concubine Xian's protection, and she should not think of doing anything bad to Doukou again.

Even though Concubine Dun hated it in her heart, she did not show it on her face. She lowered her head and said, "Your Highness, the arrangement is very good. I have no objection."

Shen Zhinian slowly stood up: "In that case, let's all go."

"I will also report to His Majesty what happened today. Concubine Liang, do you want to come with me?"

With Concubine Liang's intelligence, how could she not have imagined that Concubine Xian would never plead for Concubine Dun in front of His Majesty.

She was just putting on a show to see if she could make Concubine Dun hate Shen Zhinian, she didn't really want to let Concubine Dun go. Even if she guessed this, she would pretend not to know and even cooperate with Shen Zhinian.

"The matter has been settled. Since the virtuous concubine has gone to report to His Majesty, I will not join in the fun."

Shen Zhinian glanced at Concubine Liang, seeing clearly her little thoughts, but did not expose her. He just put his hand on the back of Fuqiu's hand, stood up and left.

Concubine Sun also followed behind with the support of Zhu'er.

Everyone immediately stood up and bowed respectfully: "Your Highness/Concubine, respectfully send off Her Majesty the Virtuous Concubine!"

After Concubine Liang left, the concubines in Yikun Palace left one after another.

Xiao Tianzi helped Concubine Dun up and said with concern: "My lady, the ground is cold, please stop kneeling."

With the previous experience of Doukou, Concubine Dun now looked at him with suspicion: "You won't betray me one day, will you?!"
