Seeing that Gu Yueyin mentioned the Emperor at every turn, Gu Yueyin didn't know whether she was deliberately showing off or not.
Gu Yueyin's identity was there, so it was not good to lose her temper.
But Nanny Gu couldn't bear to see her master always being rejected by Shen Yueji!
She smiled coldly and secretly reminded Gu Yueyin of her identity, "Imperial Concubine has done a favor for my master first. Not only is the Empress grateful to Imperial Concubine, but even the Emperor takes care of Imperial Concubine. But … "
She deliberately prolonged her voice, "Imperial Concubine should know that the Emperor doesn't like concubines to make trouble. Most concubines who can be selected to enter the palace are polite, gentle and kind. But Imperial Concubine directly ordered people to cut off Concubine Moon's tongue and set off a rain of blood in the harem. "
"The Emperor turned a blind eye to Imperial Concubine's kindness to the Empress, but Imperial Concubine's action is too inappropriate."
"This consort's actions are righteous and my actions are straightforward. When I was at the estate, Father taught this consort that if someone dares to act atrociously over your head, then you must bully them back twice as much. Otherwise, others will think that you're easy to bully. This person doesn't learn from his mistakes and will instead become even worse in the future."
Shen Yueji rested an arm on the edge of the chair and looked at Gu momo's overbearing face: "Momo also knows that Imperial Consort Yue didn't just run to the Emperor to complain about this consort. This is related to this consort's innocence. Could it be that Gu momo has forgotten how the late Empress died? A venomous woman who wanted to take my life … "The corners of her lips curled up." But I only ordered someone to cut her tongue. Compared to her saying that she cares about my sisterhood, between me and her, who is the one who cares about who? "
Shen Yueji's words were well-founded and made Nanny Gu speechless.
Yes, she knew how important a woman's chastity was in the harem. If the Emperor listened to Zhangsun Wuyue's words, Shen Yueji would end up like the former Empress.
But she only cut off Zhangsun Wuyue's tongue in return and had no other means to deal with her.
In comparison, Shen Yueji … was too kind.
Nanny Gu wanted to use this as a pretext to remind Shen Yueji of propriety. Compared with the Empress, she was nothing.
Now that she had been outmaneuvered, her face turned pale and green. She couldn't utter another word for a long time.
But Shen Yueji gave a cold laugh, not wanting to let her go like this, "Gu mama said that the emperor doesn't like imperial concubines to cause trouble. The imperial concubines that are chosen to enter the palace all know etiquette, distinguish right from wrong, and are gentle and kind. Can I take it that Nanny Gu is implying that I'm cruel and merciless? Arrogant because you're favored? "
Gu Yueyin's expression abruptly changed as she scolded, "Nanny Gu!"
Nanny Gu was scared and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Imperial Concubine, I didn't mean that, I just …" "Just what?"
Shen Yueji sneered at her. "If you weren't my Empress sister's servant, do you think you could still stand here and say such insolent words to me?"
Being reprimanded, Nanny Gu didn't dare to say a word, for fear that she would make more mistakes.
Gu Yueyin knew that Shen Yueji had a glib tongue. She had seen this mouth of hers in the past few days.
