Chapter 22: Sitting Back
"That board," Zhang Zhaohua lowered his head and hesitated: "That board—"
Seeing her like this, a female historian next to her shouted: "I think it's just that the puppet is tired of winning, otherwise who would talk to a wooden board every day!
Zhang Zhaohua untied the key from his waist in panic and handed it to the palace maid on the side. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The palace maid took the key and opened Zhang Zhaohua's official suitcase, and poured the gold and silver jewelry to the ground, and Zhang Zhaohua was distressed to death. Sure enough, in the second small drawer, she found the long wooden board out, but at first glance, she couldn't help but sigh slightly, and her face was strange.
When Mama Gong Zheng took the wooden board in her hand and looked at it carefully, her face became exactly the same.
On this wooden board that is suspected of being disgusted, there are engraved words, but it is not a curse on others, nor is it an incomprehensible rune picture, it is actually a "female commandment" written in fine and dense small letters, and if you look closely, it is one of the three chapters of "Despicable", "Jingshun" and "Concentration".
I turned over the wooden board and looked at it, and circulated it to other female officials and female histories, and everyone saw that they were not tired of being puppets, and their faces were much more relaxed. Then Shang Gong asked, "Where did you get this plank?"
"Back to Shanggong," Zhang Zhaohua said aggrievedly: "Before coming to Beijing to read the selection, my father asked a craftsman to engrave it, saying that there is no way to teach me, so that I can read the "Female Commandment" twice in the future, so as to understand the festival of human ethics." ”
"Even if you read the Female Commandment, why do you have to carry people behind your back?" asked a female historian.
"Don't dare to hide the Shang Palace," Zhang Zhaohua secretly glanced at the cow who was shrinking, and said: "Because the Niu family in the cohabitation room is afraid of the wind and the sound, we are not allowed to speak loudly, and if the voice is a little louder, they will scold and scold." ”
Both Lu and Tian nodded to testify to this.
Everyone turned their eyes to the Niu family, and the female official snorted and said, "It turns out that there is such a domineering show girl! Where is the fear of sound and light, I think it is deliberately making things difficult and deliberately rectifying people!"
Niu slumped on the ground - and a female official pointed at her and said: "Last month, it was this famous girl who accused Zhang, saying that Zhang stole her hairpin, opened Zhang's makeup, and found nothing, and now she still doesn't repent, and she dares to sue for disgust!"
"Do you know that if you are disgusted with witch Gu, as long as you say it, you won't be good!" Gong Zheng Mama stared at Niu Shi sternly and said, "Do you know that in the Great Ming Law, those who falsely accuse people will sit back!"
"Mama, Mama," Niu hugged her leg and pleaded, "I didn't make false accusations, and I don't know what disgust is!"
"You don't know what disgust is, how can you see that she has a plank, so you find Shang Gong in front of her!" Li Shangfu said: "You spread rumors from other show girls before, saying that the Zhang family is drowning, saying that the Lu family does not love cleanliness, saying that the Tian family is stammering - according to your inertia, if you really don't know what the wooden board is for, it will inevitably spread among the show girls, where will you find us directly!"
It turned out that someone really watched every move of all the show girls, everything Niu did was recorded, what she said, how she spread rumors about others, all of which made her disqualified from being a show girl in the "words" column.
"I have framed the Zhang family before," the female history said expressionlessly: "Now it is slandered again, and the crime is even greater." What kind of hatred do you have with the Zhang family, you have to spare no effort to harm her!"
"No, I didn't!" Niu called out hoarsely, and her mother also knelt down and pleaded bitterly, but this could not be exchanged for the sympathy of the others present, especially Zhang Zhaohua, whose eyes were even more frosty.
"It's still too loose to control the show girl," Gong Zheng said: "I thought it was just a small fight, and I didn't dare to make anything out of the ordinary—now it seems that the intrigue is light, and it has reached the point of colluding and framing! Who knows that other show girls are not like this, if this wind is long, won't it poison the woman's flattery to the world! This woman enters the big house, isn't it going to harm the palace!"
"Your Majesty learned from the previous generation of female disasters, set up a program of Chen Ji, and the first strict internal teaching," Gong Zheng Mama said: "The purpose of setting up female officials such as us is to enable us to guide all things in the middle palace, so that the concubine can behave in a moderate manner and not violate the etiquette and transgress the system." Now there is a slander against the winner of the Niu family, and it has been investigated and understood that it is a frame, because of jealousy of others, do not think about their own deeds; ”
When she said a word, Niu was desperate, and finally collapsed into a ball of mud.
"Cross out the name of the Niu family," Mama Gong Zheng said: "Fork out, wrap it in sheep felt, scold twenty with a cane, and ring the bell to let all the show girls come out to see." ”
The female history leaned into her ear and whispered a few words, and Mama Gong Zheng said: "The crime is theft and talking too much." From today onwards, no one is allowed to mention the word "tired of winning", all of you have served the court for a long time, and you should know that these eight words must be firmly remembered in your heart, and you must not forget it for a moment. ”
All the female historians and female officials of the palace responded respectfully.
"Today I closed the gate of the Pavilion of the Kings, which is bound to alarm Your Majesty," Mama Gongzheng said: "You will go and change your clothes as soon as possible, and follow me into the palace to see Your Majesty." ”
When everyone was gone, Zhang Zhaohua got up from the ground, turned over to the bed, put the jewelry spilled on the bed back into the box and locked it, closed his eyes and recalled the incident of a month ago.
Since she and Niu's incompatibility, Zhang Zhaohua has made a special game for her.
She took a sedan chair back to Tianxi Temple, let Zhang Chang find a wooden board, and carved three articles of "Female Commandment" on the wooden board, Zhang Chang still recognized a basket of words, inherited Zhang Qi's craftsmanship, and it was not difficult to carve words on the wooden board.
When she went back three days later, Zhang Chang had already carved it.
Zhang Zhaohua turned his back to Niu every morning and evening, sat on the bed with this wooden board and recited words, and then when Niu came up, he pretended to be weak and did not let Niu see clearly, Niu really fell for it, thinking that he had caught Zhang Zhaohua's handle, and couldn't wait to report it to the top.
Zhang Zhaohua knew that Niu's would definitely report instead of spreading rumors because one day he heard Niu's talking to her mother, her mother married into the Niu family, and she couldn't bear the hardships of the main room every day, so she wrapped a small wooden figure in ginger paper and stuffed it into the courtyard of the main room, and then guided her father to see that this main room never left the courtyard again. If it weren't for the fact that "there is nothing to go home to", the main room would definitely be suspended.
In fact, Zhang Zhaohua only wanted to be passive at first, if Niu's mother reused her old tricks and stuffed a wooden man in, she would transform this wooden man and treat him in the same way. However, this plan is unstable, there are too many variables, and the odds of winning are completely based on others, Zhang Zhaohua thought about it and simply made it himself ruthlessly, guiding them to follow their own thinking.
If the Niu family didn't have the intention of harming others, Zhang Zhaohua's situation would definitely collapse. But as long as the Niu family is unkind, Zhang Zhaohua has the possibility of victory.
The big disaster of the Niu family was finally solved, and even the cover and people blew it out together, and they lost face. The Lu family and the Tian family didn't know anything, they only knew that the Zhang family had been wronged, and they all came to comfort her.
Wang was half-clear and half-understood, but Zhang Zhaohua greeted her before, and she closed her mouth tightly and didn't say a word.
After that, the grandmothers came back from the palace, and they didn't know how to round it, but all the female officials and girls in the palace of the kings, Shi Shang Palace, stopped paying for one month and fined one month.
Zhang Zhaohua went out for a walk after her little life was good, she saw Ma again, and from Ma's, she saw a glimmer of insight in Ma's eyes.
"My sister is in the Niu family, it's really a lot of hard work," Ma said: "It's also fortunate that the Niu family made a big mistake and was kicked out, so you were relieved." ”
