Chapter 017: Fighting Grievances
The attitude of the steward was good, and he said with a smile: "Master Gao, there are not many top-grade medicinal materials, and it just so happened that Yuli Julai took a batch before, and the new transfer is this grade." ”
"Then how can I be good?" Gao Xiang asked.
The steward's words were clear: "Elder An has passed the word before, and this bag has already been prepared, otherwise, Gao Gongzi will also get this grade." ”
"This ......" Gao Xiang instinctively felt that it was wrong, but he was still young and couldn't think about it well, so he was blocked by the words of the steward for a while.
As for Lu Mingshu, she is like a mirror in her heart. Even if there is no high-quality product, ordinary genuine product is fine, why not use defective products to fool her? She didn't believe it, Jiuyao Palace dared to let the disciples use defective products for such a big thing as opening the pulse. I made her wait so long before, and now I gave her a defective product, and the other party made up his mind to embarrass her.
The other party speaks beautifully, and the attitude is also kind, so that people can't grasp the mistakes.
"No, let your hall master come out!" Gao Xiao shouted, "How come I have never heard of this sect still giving out defective products to disciples?"
"Gao Gongzi ......"
Lu Mingshu wanted to speak, but after a slight hesitation, he paused.
Fu Shangqing received the news and rushed outside, he was already in a lot of trouble.
Originally, this kind of trivial matter could not be reported to the head here, but it was a coincidence, he happened to check the medicine list in Zhizhen Hospital, and there was a commotion outside.
The first vein of Liulin has a very high status in the current Jiuyao Palace, and now the first master of the Jiuyao Palace, the Taishang Elder Zhuo Jiangui, is the first vein of Liulin. On their part, they have always remained neutral and do not participate in disputes. On the other hand, no one will offend them and force them into the other faction.
Fu Shangqing, the head of the family, is not sitting very steadily, how can he offend the Liulin lineage? Don't look at Gao Xiang is just a child, the Liulin lineage has always been a single lineage, there is only one descendant in a generation, Zhuo Jiangui only accepted An Tongchen as a formal disciple, An Tongchen has now selected Gao Xiang again, no surprise he is the future inheritor of the Liulin lineage, and An Tongchen will definitely give him a look if he makes a big fuss.
The farce only passed a few days ago, and Fu Shangqing will definitely not do anything superfluous at this time.
"What is this for?" Fu Shangqing came out of it with a calm face.
The steward was making his own opinion, and he thought that Lu Mingshu was a child, so what if he bullied him? It is true to please the second lady. I didn't expect Gao Xiang to come at this time, and this stunned boy was still bent on standing up for Lu Mingshu, so this matter would be difficult to do.
Call the hall master, he doesn't dare. The distribution of elixir is an important job, and ordinary deacons can't get their hands on it, and they are only qualified to be in charge. He also knows who Gao Xiang is, what if the hall master picks him up in order to appease Gao Xiang? He is a small steward, and no matter how many gifts he gives, it is not as important as Gao Xiang, the inheritor of the Liulin lineage.
Unexpectedly, Fu Shangqing came.
When the steward saw him, he didn't know whether to rest assured or worried.
Don't worry, he usually camps on Zhou Yinru's side, of course he knows that Fu Shangqing doesn't like this daughter who came out halfway. Let's say I'm worried, it's also his daughter, not to mention that the actions of the head of Fu on the face have always made people unable to find faults.
Unexpectedly, Fu Shangqing suddenly appeared, and Lu Mingshu was taken aback. When she was hesitating and didn't know what to call, Gao Xiao had already clenched her fists with a big grin: "Master, you came just in time." Zhizhen Academy is too disagreeable, how important it is to open the pulse, this villain is actually shoddy, and detain disciples! If this is spread out, will our Jiuyao Palace still have face?"
Fu Shangqing was speechless for a while, this is really beautiful, how old is this child? It's too difficult!
"What the hell is going on?"
The matter is very clear, the two packs of medicine are spread out in front of Fu Shangqing, and the contrast is clear. Gao Xiang's bag, all of which are of high quality, full and shiny, Lu Mingshu's bag, dry, smells wrong.
Fu Shangqing glared at the steward, with a secret hatred in his heart. Zhou Yinru wanted to embarrass Lu Mingshu, he knew it, and he was too lazy to care. It's just that it shouldn't be on the bright side, now is the critical period for cooperation with the Seven Truths, who has time to take care of such trivial things?
In front of him, the steward didn't dare to take out the previous words again, stammered, and didn't finish a word for a long time.
Fu Shangqing looked upset for a while, and saw Gao Xiang looking at him with wide eyes, so he had to quickly cut through the chaos: "This seat has been ordered three times before, and the responsibility of the Zhizhen Academy is important, and it should not be taken lightly." How can we use shoddy quality to open the pulse? If the elixir is missing, won't it be reported to the public? Since it can't be done well, then there is no need to do it!"
The steward's knees weakened, and he knelt down and begged bitterly: "Master, it's all my greed for a while, ask the head to be gracious!"
Before Fu Shangqing could speak, Gao Xiang had already glared at him: "You're going to be gracious before you are punished, it's too early, right?"
Fu Shangqing waved his hand: "Beat ten sticks and drive them out of the door." "A small steward, no big deal.
The steward was shocked: "The head ......"
Before he said a word, someone had already come up to fork him and go to the Jingyi Yuan to execute the sentence.
After dealing with it, Fu Shangqing frowned and looked at Lu Mingshu: "How long have you been in the house to get into trouble? Don't go out of Bixi Valley if you have nothing to do in the future, if you need something, I will send someone to send it." ”
Obviously, she was bullied, and Fu Shangqing reprimanded her when he opened his mouth. Lu Mingshu had long been disappointed in this father, but he didn't feel sad, his mind changed, and he said: "I'm afraid it's not easy, there are many things lacking in Bixi Valley." ”
Fu Shangqing's brows furrowed even tighter: "With food and clothing, what can you lack?"
Lu Mingshu said: "Bixi Valley has not been involved in the world for a long time, my master has a good temper, those people have long been used to doing shoddy things, not only this time." The rice, flour, vegetables and fruits they sent were all defective, and the servants might not be willing to eat them. ”
Fu Shangqing pressed the unhappiness in his heart: "Okay, I know about this." ”
With that, he got up and went out with his entourage.
Gao Xiang was puzzled and asked, "Are you familiar with the master?"
Lu Mingshu smiled: "He is my father." ”
"Huh?" Gao Xiao was shocked.
Lu Mingshu solemnly thanked him: "Thanks to you today, thank you." It's not early, I have to go back, and I have time to come to Bixi Valley to play!"
"Oh, it's okay......"
Lu Mingshu took the newly packaged medicine, did not check it, and left the Zhizhen Hospital. I just made trouble, and I don't think they dare to fool around anymore.
Gao Xiao watched her walk away in a daze, still thinking in his heart, he had seen the daughter of the head of the house, a pampered little girl, when did she have such a daughter?
Lu Mingshu is really grateful to him. Realizing that the steward was deliberately bullying, she had already thought about it, and when she went out of this door, she knelt at the gate of the main palace.
While pretending to be a good person, while embarrassing in private, there is no such cheap thing.
Mother's matter made her realize that swallowing her anger will only fuel her arrogance, Fu Shangqing is shameless, what else is she doing for him to ask for face? She has nothing now, and she is not afraid to wear shoes barefoot.
I didn't expect to meet Gao Xiang by chance, and I enthusiastically held grievances for her.
She was not afraid of the Zhou family's resentment, but Gao Xiang's help saved her a lot of trouble, and she also took the opportunity to solve the matter of Bixi Valley's deduction.
This favor, she wrote down.
