Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhao Xuanjing thought for a moment and immediately sent someone to investigate the identity of this Great Consort Mei. Then, he tied up the two gardeners.

In the hall, the young ladies were quite concerned about what was happening outside.

“Sigh, the gardeners are quite innocent. If they’re punished because of this, it seems a bit unreasonable. Should we ask Young Lady Xie for mercy later?” Someone could not help but ask.

Then, they all looked at Xie Xi.

“Young Lady Xie, the spider didn’t bite you after all. What do you think?” Dong Xiyun looked at Xie Xi with a smile, her face full of concern and kindness.

“I’ll listen to my elder sister.” Xie Xi was quite determined.

She was already 13 years old. She knew many things.

It was just that she did not like to talk about it.

“Your elder sister dotes on you, so she insisted on making a decision for you. But think about it, if the gardeners are killed because of this, your reputation would be terrible, right? Besides, the gardeners really work hard. Didn’t you see the callus and soil in their hands just now? This is all to let us admire such beautiful flowers, that’s how they got into trouble. Second Young Lady Xie, you are the daughter of an official, so you are generous and magnanimous. You should forgive them a little, don’t you think so?” Dong Xiyun said to Xie Xi.

When Fang Muxue heard that, she laughed. “That’s easy for you to say. If you were the one who was bitten, you would want to kill them more than anyone else.”

Today, Qin Liu, who had the best relationship with Xie Qiao, was not around. After all, her status was not high enough.

That was why Fang Muxue, who was on Xie Qiao’s side, had to protect her dignity. How could she let Dong Xiyun bully Xie Xi?

Feng Shuangshuang also spoke, “Young Lady Dong, you’re magnanimous. Don’t make Xie Xi beg. When the Crown Prince comes later, why don’t you talk to him?”

“Let’s be clear. These gardeners aren’t from our residences. If they accidentally did something wrong, they would be forgiven. However, they serve the nobles. I heard that the nobles in the palace love flowers and plants and admire them every day. If they are usually so careless and don’t check carefully, they will hurt the nobles. What should they do? In my opinion, it is indeed a severe punishment.” The other young lady could not help but express her opinion.

“It’s just an occasional omission. Xie Xi is fine as well. They will definitely remember it in the future and will be grateful to the Crown Prince for sparing their lives. However, if they don’t let go, won’t others think that the Crown Prince is too harsh?” Dong Xiyun also had her reasons.

She did not want to let go of Xie Xi. “Second Young Lady Xie, say something!”

“If you make a mistake, you will be punished. It’s not up to you how they will be punished,” Xie Xi said word by word. “Don’t ask me. I don’t care about this. My nose isn’t long enough.”

“Hehe!” Fang Muxue could not help but chuckle.

“That’s right, Young Lady Dong. Aren’t you poking your nose a little too far? In the imperial palace, what right do you have to ask how the Crown Prince wants to punish the gardener? First Young Lady Xie is the future Princess Consort appointed by the Emperor. While you... the Fourth Prince is about to leave the palace to build a residence. In the future, you will also have to live outside. This is not your home,” Fang Muxue said with a smile.

The East Palace of the Crown Prince was in the imperial city.

No matter how many people thought that the Crown Prince could not ascend the throne, as long as he was the Crown Prince, he had the right to decide the life and death of all the servants in the imperial city!

There was nothing wrong with a light or a heavy punishment!

“Y-You are really cold-blooded.. Although it is not our business, should we just let it happen before our eyes?!” As she said that, Dong Xiyun revealed a disappointed look. “Isn’t the life of a servant not worthy?”
