Rui Changzai looked at Shen Ruochen in disbelief, "Ms. Concubine Chen, are you really going to fight to the death with your concubine?"

"The fish is dead and the net is broken?" Shen Ruochen sneered, "You think you are too important, you can only die, but you can't hurt me at all."

"Forget it, since you don't give up, then call the people from the kitchen and let me ask first." After that, Shen Ruochen said to Xiao Dezi, "You should go and invite the emperor, what are you waiting for! "

"Yes, I will go and invite the emperor now!"

Xiao Dezi walked around Ruichang Zai and walked out. Ruichang Zai didn't stop him even if he wanted to, and the people from the kitchen were brought in.

"I heard that you withheld hot water from Ruichang Zai? Ruichang Zai has already sued me, and said that I instigated you. Please tell me what happened." Shen Ruochen said slowly. said.

The person in charge of the kitchen is a somewhat stout woman named: Aunt Lai. Aunt Lai wiped her face with the shiny dirty scarf, glared at Rui Changzai fiercely, knelt down and said, "Ms. Mingjian, there is absolutely no such thing! I don't know that Rui Changzai is here. What are you doing, so confusing the right and wrong, our little kitchen has an account."

"You still dare not to admit it?" Rui Changzai said unconvinced, "If it's something valuable, that's all. It's just some hot water. Why does my maid always say no, no? Isn't it just you reading this novel? If you have a low status as the host, do you just rely on others to order the dishes?"

"My little master, I dare not accept this!" Aunt Lai said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, "Each palace has its own rules. Each person has a bucket of hot water every night, and five buckets of hot water every three days for bathing. There is a certain amount of this. We also have a certain amount of firewood in the kitchen. Besides, if there is any leftover one day, why didn't I give you more? The young master must speak with his conscience. "

"Then why did Rui Changzai still say you didn't give it?" Shen Ruochen asked.

Aunt Lai said loudly, "As for my wife, this is enough for half a day, but no one can resist asking for it! Every day, Rui often asks for three or four buckets of hot water at their place, saying that their master likes to soak her feet, but this No matter how big your feet are, you don’t need to soak them every day, and you won’t be afraid of them getting damaged!”

Aunt Lai said exaggeratedly, with a look of disdain on her face. Ruichang immediately became angry, "You cheap maid, who do you think has big feet?"

"Then I don't know if my little master has big feet or smelly feet. Anyway, I know that there are regulations for this hot water. You should get more of it every day. This is really unacceptable, slave. Besides, if you hadn't seen it these days, These two girls of yours are so pitiful. Every time you go back, you beg grandpa to sue grandma, and the servants won’t give you more!” Aunt Lai was very talkative at first glance, and she silenced Rui Chang in just a few words. , all that was left was to stare.

Everyone looked relieved, and Shen Ruochen deliberately coughed and asked, "Rui Chang is here, is this grandma telling the truth? Did you really get more?"

"I..." Ruichang said, scratching her neck, "Yes, my legs are very cold, and I just want to soak my feet more, why can't I do it? It's not a precious thing, and even some hot water won't work. ?”

"Hey, little master, you really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are! You want two more buckets, and she wants two more buckets. That's one pot for two or three people. How much firewood do you need? There are so many people in the palace, all like you. In this way, how much more firewood will be needed just to provide hot water? Can you afford the money?"

Aunt Lai took the call and said, "Aren't your feet the same as walking in Jingui? You spend more water and firewood every night than scalding the old sow. I don't know what you are doing." ?”

Rui Changzai's face almost turned green with anger, "Who are you talking about? You bastard, how dare you put this young master and the old sow... you... you... Madam, can you hear this? Don’t you care?”

"This nanny's metaphor is really not good. How can you compare Ruichang Zai to an old sow? Really! But she is an old nanny and can't speak. Ruichang Zai has always been a considerate person in front of the emperor. It’s satisfactory, so I’m sure he won’t be too harsh.”

"Empress, you are biasing her!" Rui Changzai said loudly, "You are biased!"

"Your Majesty is partial? You see, I think you are going too far. You are talking about your Majesty and saying that your Majesty ordered us. You dare to do this even though you are here all the time. Whose influence are you relying on?"

"me……"

"Okay, I have asked this question clearly. Since you said that I am partial, then I will wait for the emperor to come and let the emperor come to judge, but..." Shen Ruochen snorted, "Did you say that I At this time, you’d better think about yourself first.”

"What are you thinking about, concubine? At worst, I just don't need hot water in the future," Rui Changzai said unconvinced, "If I hadn't learned the rules, my legs wouldn't be so cold!"

As soon as these words came out, the nun was also offended. The nun's face changed and she stepped forward and said, "My lord, you are blaming the old slave for saying this. The old slave is just teaching the rules. This palace The old slave has also taught a lot to the nobles here, and they are all doing well. How come you are here and you still say that you can learn the rules? The emperor is here, and the old slave must make it clear that you have a noble body. There really is something that this old slave can’t afford!”

Not only is this little master Rui stupid, but he is also very poor and has a bad temper. He originally came here because of his relationship with the emperor's childhood sweetheart. Looking at it this way, he doesn't expect to be favored. Now he still says that, well-educated Grandma really wanted to leave as soon as possible!

"Okay, you have even offended the Aunty, you are really the one in the palace!" Shen Ruochen smiled coldly and stretched out his hand, "I disrespect the Aunty, and I am committing the following crime, slandering the Lord of the first palace, without any reason. Beating the palace servants, abusing lynchings, and so on, huh, I want to see it, the emperor doesn't care about you!"

Little Walnut said with added jealousy, "Little Master Rui, I look at you, I'm afraid you have to spend this good life in the cold palace!"

Then he said, "Cui'an, don't be afraid. When the emperor comes later, you can show your injuries to the emperor. The emperor always loves the people like his own son, and he will definitely uphold justice for you!"

When Little Walnut shouted, several other palace servants who were waiting for Rui Chang gathered around, knelt on the ground, and said in unison, "Please save us, too! Save the slaves!"

"Your Majesty, Master Rui not only punished Cui'an, but also us!" As he spoke, everyone showed their injuries.

"Your Majesty, Ruixiao will punish you by kneeling down if you don't take the initiative. She scolded Nanny in her own palace, and even punished us. We really... beg your Majesty to save us!"

Rui Changzai turned around in disbelief, looked at the crowd and cursed loudly, "What are you all here for? I've turned against you! Get out! Get out!"
