Chapter 140: The Concubine of Bao Xi Conquers the World (5)
"The punishment of stabbing face?" Bao Xi put a big question mark in her heart.
The punishment of piercing the face is generally used on the pawns of the peddlers, and a son with a better family background like this will not be subject to this punishment if he makes some money or says hello at home. The ancients took the face problem very seriously, and no plastic surgery could correct it, if there was a tattoo on the face, it would be a lifetime!
As a magistrate, the county governor of each place will definitely have a good relationship with the local wealthy families. Although the crime committed by the Seventh Prince of the Fox was not small, it did not cause any serious consequences, and it could generally be replaced by other punishments. If Bao Juncheng decides to use the punishment of stabbing on him, it will be determined to give their fox family a disadvantage.
If this is the case, the fox family must have committed something else, so that Bao Juncheng decided to clean them up. Now that this woman has come to the door of her house, there must be no good solution.
Fox Qi is a concubine, and his mother-in-law will definitely not do such a rude thing for him. The woman in front of him should be his biological mother!
"That's right, you have done my son like this, you must give my son an explanation!" the woman looked into her eyes as if she were about to burst into flames.
"Who is your son? Ruined my daughter's reputation, I'm not done with you!" Seeing the woman in front of her splashing dirty water on her daughter, she couldn't help it for a long time.
"My son is the seventh son of the fox family, and he was killed by your daughter and sent to prison. You have to give me an explanation today, otherwise ......" Fox Qi's biological mother pointed to the seven or eight big men behind her, and snorted, the meaning was self-evident.
The seventh son of the fox family, the father and the mother, looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. They all looked at Bao Xi.
Your son robbed a people's daughter in the street in broad daylight, and was bumped into by the son of the county family, and put him in prison, waiting to be released. What he does is punished by the law, what are you doing in my house?"
Bao Xi picked out the matter in a few words, and only then did her father and mother know what was going on.
Two days ago, Bao Xi went to the street and bought some daily necessities, because the journey was not long, the family was busy, and there was a market along the way, so the old couple did not accompany them. I didn't expect that in just such a few ways, that fox seventh son could rob his own daughter. If it weren't for the son of the Juncheng family, I really can't imagine what would have happened.
Thinking about this, the father and mother looked at the appearance of Hu Qi's mother with her teeth and claws, and felt even more disgusted.
"What are you doing? You have put my son in prison, you go and redeem my son. Otherwise, I won't be able to marry you in this life!" Fox Qi glanced at Bao Xi arrogantly, and commented: "He looks good, no wonder my son is tempted." In this case, if you can go to the county government to withdraw the lawsuit, saying that you are playing around, my son did not treat you badly, and I still allow you to enter our house and be my son's concubine, how about it?"
After saying that, Hu Qi and his mother stood there with her arms crossed, waiting for Bao Xi and her parents to agree.
She had inquired before she came, and the conditions of this family were very poor, so it was better to give birth to a daughter. But although this daughter is very good-looking, she has recently been rumored to have a hidden disease.
Such a girl is generally not worthy of her son. It's just that she really looks so good, her son doesn't know what crazy he is, and he actually said that he moved the old man to come to this house to propose. Fortunately, it didn't work out, otherwise if she really had any hidden disease, her son would have lost a lot. In her opinion, a woman with a bad family background and a hidden illness has already promoted her to the position of a concubine by her own son!
"It's not good, your son's affairs are handled by national law, and I'm not interested in going to your house. Bao Xi said disapprovingly.
It's ridiculous! When everyone has a crush on their bastard son!
"You...... Don't regret it! If you really refuse, you won't have that chance again. "Fox Qi's mother never expected that she would really be rejected. In her eyes, her son is so good that no girl can refuse.
"Regret what! You old pious woman! As long as your son is concerned, we won't want it if it is posted upside down to us. I heard that he has a good face for nothing, and he is good at eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling. Some time ago, he owed a large amount of gambling debts, and his father cleaned him up! You can keep this kind of goods for yourself, and don't let him come out and harm people. Sure enough, it's a concubine, but it's not good to raise children. No matter how rich the family is, they can raise their children badly. ”
The mother endured it for a long time, and finally couldn't help it, and fired at the woman in front of her like a cannon, picking out her sore spots.
My mother is also a gentle and kind woman on weekdays, where did she quarrel with someone like this? It's all because the other party belittles her daughter too much, and she can't help it.
"You...... You...... Sure enough, it's a lowly person, shameless to give face!" Her son has been in trouble again and again, and her husband has given up on this son. The last gambling thing, with the power of the fox family, could have been suppressed, but her husband didn't care about it at all, and her son's reputation for gambling would be spread.
This time, her husband lost his temper again, and then said that he didn't care about anything. Otherwise, where would she need to come to such a house in person to intercede for her son!
She felt that when she came here, she had already given face to the family, and the family really didn't know how to lift up, and they rejected themselves.
But what should I do? She is a woman, and she can't use the connections of the fox family, so she has to find the owner to withdraw the lawsuit. If the woman withdraws the lawsuit, then it is useless for others to say anything, and they will not be able to cure her son's crime. Even if that person is the son of Juncheng, it doesn't matter.
But she didn't expect that the woman wouldn't go to the road at all. That's why she scolded angrily.
"What did you say?" Father Hi is not a clay man, but he is a man, and it is really difficult to see a woman.
"I said you are a slut......" Fox Qi and his mother rolled her eyes and continued to grit her teeth.
"Smack!" A loud slap sounded, and the mother made a move.
"Sure enough, if there is a mother, there must be a son, your son is so unproductive, he learned from you! ”
Concubines are bought and sold. If there is no conflict of interest, the father and mother will not expose other people's scars for no reason. But the other party found his own door to bully his daughter, which is different. Even if the fox family would retaliate against them, they would admit it.
"You ......" Hu Qi and his mother covered her right cheek, and she was about to cry. She had never suffered such a great grievance! Even the main room that weighed on her head had never been like this.
"That's what we are. People are watching the sky, don't think that you can oppress others if your family background is better. We can't help your son, let's listen to the county government!"
Father Ji kicked out the two servants who had just slammed into the door, and slammed the door shut. Fox Qi and his mother hurriedly took a step back so that she was not hit by the door. Immediately so angry that he stomped his feet and ran away.
She was originally a fierce and inward-looking, and the sturdy servants she brought were window dressing. Her son is still in prison, and if she really lets people do what happens to the family, her son's crime will only get worse. So after making such a fuss, I could only stomp my feet and go back.
Hu Qi's mother later came to Concubine's house once, saying that she was willing to let Bao Xi be the main room. But her father, mother, and concubine are not stupid, how can they be happy when they marry into their family!
Bao An, who had been sending people to observe in secret, heard the news and didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy. The girl's family was principled and discerning, and he was happy. But in this way, he originally figured out the girl Guò and mixed the fox family into it, and finally dealt with their family's idea of falling through.
There is a problem with the fox family, and King Bao originally wanted to deal with them and take away their power. However, their family is more cunning, and it is difficult to catch their handles. Only this fox seventh son is the most unproductive. Bao An originally wanted to make a breakthrough through Guò Fox Qi and make this matter bigger, so that he could justifiably go to the Fox family to investigate the case.
Bao An is confident that as long as he can go to the fox house to search, he will definitely be able to find out what he wants. But now it's all in vain.
Although there is a faint speculation about these things, it is not clear. She was just quietly waiting for the wheels of fate to run over.
Half a year later, when the two countries of Zhou and Bao were in a big war, the Zhou State mobilized 200,000 troops to accumulate on the border of Zhou and Bao, and the Bao State poured less than 200,000 people into the country. In terms of military equipment, the two countries are also not the same. The Zhou State was well-equipped, and the weapons of the soldiers of the Bao State were really simple and crude.
Under the huge disparity in power, King Bao wisely chose to seek peace.
Naturally, seeking peace is to lose money and land, but the land of Baoguo is really small, and it is not enough to pay for it, so I have to send more other things, such as money, beautiful women, or something.
King Bao ordered to select 100 beauties from the people to be presented to King Zhou, and ordered officials to inquire in many ways and carefully select. Since the population of Baoguo is not very large, the probability of producing beautiful women is even smaller, so the condition for selection is as long as there is no marriage.
At this point, Bao Xi was a little confused again. It was inevitable that she would be chosen in this life. However, in the previous life, although the original owner was selected to meet the conditions, there was no other person who was given a dowry other than the original owner to be selected again.
Besides, generally speaking, this kind of thing will avoid young girls who have a marriage contract, right? Although the country of Bao is small, it is not bad for this woman! King Zhou did not name him, and he did not have to be anyone.
The more you think about it, the more intriguing it becomes.
