Chapter 257: One Loses Everything
Compared with the angry Hu Shilang and the anxious Hongdaotai, Lian Yufeng smiled lightly: " Lord Hu, this is not the public court of the Yamen, there is no need to have all three certificates, this bureau seems simple, in fact, it is not, many people must cooperate, why would Miss Meng San be alone and be helped here by the maid, who was with him halfway, and who poured wine into her, who was responsible for luring her away, and this letter, presumably this should be an imitation of Miss Meng San's handwriting, as far as this king knows, Miss Meng San is in the boudoir class, and the classmate can get the letter written by her own handwriting, but it is not easy to imitate a person's handwriting, and it must not be difficult to find the person who writes the ghostwriter, it's not difficult to touch melons along the vine, right?"
A well-organized remark made Hu Shilang sweat on his forehead when he heard it, yes, as long as the relevant people are found for questioning, it is not difficult to find out who the initiator is, as a father, he doesn't believe that his good daughter will do such a thing, but the official position has reached his point, and he is also a good person, all signs show that this is indeed the work of the Hu family, and it seems that his daughter is the most suspicious.
Why was he so stupid? All kinds of premonitions proved that this could not be an ordinary thief who wanted to steal, why did he believe Lian Yufeng's nonsense?
Even Yufeng said: "Lord Hu, I just said that this is not the public court of the Yamen, and this matter is not suitable for publicity, of course, Lord Hu feels that there is something wrong with this king's mention, and this king also respects Lord Hu's opinion, after all, this is Hu's mansion, and the guest is as the host, so I will escort this maid and related people to the Yamen, and find out." ”
"Never, my lord. It's about ...... It is related to Miss Mengsan's reputation, and it also involves other noble girls, which is very involved, and it is absolutely impossible. Hong Daotai hurriedly spoke out to stop it, he really wanted to go to court, how others didn't know, his son was guilty of stealing incense and stealing jade from the inner courtyard of the master's house during the banquet.
Hu Shilang also hurriedly said: "Yes." Rajah. This is related to the reputation of Miss Mengjia, and it must not be. ”
"Then according to Lord Hu, what should be done about this matter?" Lian Yufeng glanced at Hu Shilang with contempt.
Hu Shilang bowed his head slightly. His eyes flickered, if he looked at it, if nothing happened anyway, it would be a big deal. It's a trivial matter, but he doesn't dare to say that. Thinking with his toes, even such a big battle as the wind would never have happened, so he could only whisper and said, "Please also ask the prince to think of a comprehensive plan." ”
He could see that even Yu Feng didn't want to show the matter, otherwise he should insist on arresting Ruoliu next to his daughter and even his own daughter for interrogation. He is now considered meat on someone's board, and he can only be slaughtered by others, I hope this guy doesn't open his mouth.
Even the corners of the wind lips are slightly raised. He smiled faintly and said: "As the saying goes, it is better to settle a grievance than to settle it." What Lord Hong just said is also that this matter is related to the reputation of several young ladies, and it is not easy to publicize, but it can't be as if nothing happened, otherwise how can we ensure that today's things will not be leaked out, especially if it is only leaked a little and not completely leaked, outsiders will not understand it will affect the reputation of the young lady, so let's do it, Lord Hu is also an important minister of the court, and the character of the adult is still trustworthy, so this matter will be handed over to Lord Hu for thorough investigation, if it is really the ...... of the eldest lady of your mansion. ”
Speaking of this, Lian Yufeng stopped and looked coldly at Hu Shilang who was in a cold sweat on the side.
"If the little girl is so-called, the lower officials will be severely punished. Hu Shilang immediately assured that although his daughter was important, it was related to the rise and fall of the family at this time, and he couldn't care about it, and he couldn't compensate the whole family for a daughter, when he said this, a fierce color flashed in his eyes.
Even Yu Feng smiled: "You don't have to make a big move, young man, who hasn't done anything wrong, this king has a mention, I don't know if the two adults think it's feasible?"
"Lord Wang, please speak, if you can, the officials will definitely do it. Hu Shilang considered the words, did not refuse, and did not completely agree.
Hongdaotai also expressed its willingness to do so.
Lian Yufeng said: "If, this king is saying that if, this matter is indeed done by the eldest lady of your mansion, then the Hu and Hong families are married, I heard that Hong Gongzi has not married since he lost his wife a few years ago, and there is no intimate person around to serve him, so he did such a foolish thing, if he can marry a shrewd wife, he must not dare to steal incense and jade again, Lord Hong, do you say?"
"That's what the prince said. Hong Daotai agreed without thinking about it, isn't it just a woman, let his son marry a woman to expose the ugly things, everyone is happy, and this is still a high-ranking daughter, although the character is unbearable, but his son's virtue can still pick others, just wait for these two to get married, they will be sent far away to the poor countryside, so that they want to get into trouble and have nowhere to go, after two years of limelight, the woman will be disposed of at that time, it's no big deal, dare to do this kind of ugly thing, the Hu family must have no face to support their daughter and ask for the guilt。
Hu Shilang thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and asked, "If this matter is not the little girl's doing...... What should I do?"
It's not that this condition is worse than he originally thought, but after all, it is a daughter who is regarded as a pearl in the palm of his hand, thinking about the obscene appearance of the son of the Hong family, Hu Shilang is disgusted, if he can, he would rather strangle his daughter than have such a son-in-law, and he can't be 100% sure that this thing must be done by his daughter, if it has nothing to do with his daughter, then his daughter is not too wronged?
"If it is other young ladies of the Hu family, Hong Gongzi can also marry, if it is someone else in the house...... This king believes that Lord Hu will also be able to deal with it impartially, and this king still has something to do, so he will leave first, and Lord Hu does not have to send him off. Lian Yufeng put down this sentence, didn't give Hu Shilang a chance to speak again, and walked out quickly.
Hu Shilang wanted to stop it, but he suddenly thought about it, but there was no reason to stop it, so he could only watch Lian Yufeng leave so easily.
"Lord Hu, the official has also resigned. Hong Daotai immediately arched his hand, with a gloomy face, thinking about it, he was really holding his breath, but according to the current situation, it should have been designed by someone, although his son is not angry, but men, and blood and strength, it is inevitable that they will do wrong things. In the final analysis, Miss Hu family is shameless and wants to design other ladies, use his son, and affect his Hong family, how can such a woman who is immoral and corrupt be his daughter-in-law of the Hong family, there is no way at the moment, she can only wait for her to pass the door, and then clean up after the matter has passed.
Hu Shilang was left alone in the house. Holding his breath, he kicked the screen that had fallen to the ground. A sharp pain in his feet brought him to his senses, and now was not the time to be angry, and there were a cloud of guests outside. It must not be known that this kind of thing has happened, otherwise the reputation that the Hu family has accumulated for several lifetimes will be over, and what face will he have to gain a foothold in the court.
After going out, he quietly instructed his henchman butler a few words. Then he straightened his clothes and went to greet the guests with a smile on his face. From an outsider's point of view, it is impossible to see what kind of anger is hidden in his heart under this elegant appearance.
……
Mongfu.
When this kind of thing happens, Mrs. Meng can't care about being rude. I didn't even make excuses, after making sure that my daughter was just drunk and nothing happened. Let people leave Master Meng first, along the way. Meng Yan was dazed and confused, Mrs. Meng couldn't ask anything to ask why, Mrs. Meng felt sorry for her daughter, and she was angry with the Hu family, and she was angry with Meng Xiaofu, so she was a sister, even if her daughter was not sensible, she shouldn't just leave her sister to play alone.
Su Yiqing's heart was also in a mess, thinking back to what happened, if it was impossible to even plan with Yufeng, but the situation was extremely favorable to him, this person must have known something in advance, but he stood by and waited for Meng Yan to fall into the trap, so he used this to force her, this person is really terrible, the county lord of Xiuwen, the sisters of the Hu family, and many noble girls, he can't buy them all, but he can connect all these people to form a trap that is extremely beneficial to him.
Leaving aside her fiancée, this matter is known to him, and the designer must have a fatal handle to be caught by him, whether it is the Xiuwen County Lord or the Hu family or any prodigal son who wants to steal incense and jade, it will be used by him in the future, this is not just killing two birds with one stone, and the benefits obtained from it are really difficult to calculate.
Is he just saying that he is scaring her, or is it true? If he really sits idly by, what will be the consequences? If the matter is big, Meng Yan will only have a dead end, the matter is in the Hu family, and the Hu family is not able to get rid of it, and there are also the county lords of Xiuwen and other noble girls, the family behind them will also be implicated, but he is the least harmed, if she is designed, she may be laughed at and put on a green hat, but it is the sister of the fiancée who is designed, and this green hat cannot be worn on his head.
Whatever the outcome of this matter, even Yufeng is the biggest winner.
And now the question is, is she going to be his opponent, or is she going to be his teammate, Queen Xu, Mrs. Zhou...... She already has too many opponents, do you need to add another one?
No, she already knows the result of fighting alone, and she has enough enemies, now it's time to find a teammate, a wolf-like teammate is always stronger than an opponent, right? Although joining forces with him may not be able to achieve absolute victory in this battle for survival, at least she can stand on a horizontal line with Queen Xu, Mrs. Zhou and others, and there is no other way to go, so let's join forces, after this incident, the previous concerns are no longer a problem, and the word innocent is not suitable for this man......
Before the carriage returned to the Mongolian Mansion, Su Yiqing had already made up her mind.
After returning to the room, she removed her makeup and took off her heavy jewelry, combed a simple bun, put on a comfortable loose home dress, drank a few sips of tea, and after calming down, she took the maids to the east cross courtyard where Meng Yan lived, and did not wait for the maids to report, so she went in directly.
When she entered, Meng Yan was half-lying on the bed, her eyes were red and swollen, and she had obviously just cried, and Mrs. Meng was comforting her on the side, and when she saw Su Yiqing coming in directly, Meng Yan was a little stunned.
Mrs. Meng glared sternly at the maid beside Meng Yan who followed in, as if she was condemning the maid for not reporting earlier, but she immediately retracted her gaze and said kindly: "Fu'er is here, your sister is fine, don't worry, Yan'er, your sister has been worried about you just now." ”
Out of the corner of her eye, Su Yiqing saw Mrs. Meng's hand secretly pinching Meng Yan, Meng Yan was reminded by her mother, put away her aggrieved and resentful expression, and shouted weakly, "Second sister." ”
"You all go down, I'll have a few words with Sister Yan. Su Yiqing lightly instructed the room full of maids and women.
Green vine, Luo Cao naturally didn't say a word, and immediately retreated, but the maid next to Mrs. Meng and Meng Yan was a little hesitant, looking at Mrs. Meng. They looked at Meng Yan again, and they didn't go out until Mrs. Meng nodded slightly.
In this way, Meng Yan is angry and aggrieved, this is her house, why is a concubine giving orders in her house, and today's incident is all to blame on this concubine sister. If it weren't for her. How could she be excluded by the nobles, it was all her fault, under the grievances and anger. Meng Yan didn't care about Mrs. Meng's hints, and said angrily: "Second sister, what do you mean?"
Su Yiqing said coldly: "Sue you some things that the maids and wives must not know." ”
"Fu'er, your sister Yan is not feeling well. It's never too late to say more. Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Mrs. Meng was busy interrupting.
"Some things have to be said sooner. Who knows what will happen later?" Su Yiqing's words were very cold, "Meng Yan, you and I are sisters, and we are in the same breath." I don't expect you to have much sisterhood, but I hope you can be smart and don't hurt others and yourself. I can save you once, but I can't save you a second time. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Meng Yan grew up with thousands of pampered after all. As soon as his temper came up, he didn't care about his mother's hints, and a pair of round eyes glared at Su Yiqing fiercely.
"Fu'er, Yan'er. Mrs. Meng looked at the two helplessly, her eyes full of supplication.
"Mother rest assured, I'm not embarrassing my sister, I'm just telling her the truth and letting her know who sisters are. Su Yiqing looked at Meng Yan calmly, "Do you think that you were just tricked by the noble girl today, drank some wine, and lost some temper?"
Meng Yan said loudly: "Everyone is just joking, and they don't mean to pour me wine, they don't know that I am allergic to pine nut wine, originally just drink some fruit wine will be fine, but there is a snack made of pine nut wine, I mistakenly ate two things together, it will be like this, a qiē is an accident, you don't spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”
"You read the letter louder so that the outsiders can hear it, and by the way, read it out louder. Su Yiqing said and took out the letterhead that Fang Cai gave to her and threw it in front of Meng Yan.
Meng Yan didn't reach out to take it at first, but just glanced at it, but after a glance, her face changed greatly, and she grabbed the letterhead, and Mrs. Meng also saw it at the same time, snatched the letterhead back, and said in a trembling voice: "Yan'er, this is your handwriting, did you write it?"
"Mother, how could a daughter write such a thing?" Meng Yan glared at Su Yiqing viciously, "Meng Xiaofu, you framed me." ”
"Do you think I wrote it to harm you?" Su Yiqing asked rhetorically.
"I ......"
Meng Yan had just said a word, and the words were interrupted, and a loud slap hit her in the face, and she looked at her mother in disbelief.
Mrs. Meng is well versed in all kinds of evil tricks in the back house, but after thinking about it carefully, she knows that her daughter was framed, but the person who framed her is definitely not her own concubine, grabbed Meng Yan's arm, and shouted in a low voice: "You shut up for me, say that you have offended anyone in your boudoir, and people use this kind of vicious tricks to harm you." ”
Meng Yan looked at her mother's distorted face, which she had never seen before, and was frightened for a moment, unable to speak at all.
Su Yiqing said at this time: "Mother, don't be angry first, it's really not about Sister Yan at this time, and people are not targeting her...... Sister Yan, I just want to tell you, my family business is too conspicuous, I don't know how many people want to destroy, but this is by no means my fault, the marriage is a major event of the parents' order matchmaker, this family affair is not my personal request, you are also a part of this family, one is prosperous, one is lost, you can't say who is involved whom, remember, we are sisters, although sisters may not be able to get along with each other, at least I will not do such a stupid thing as ruining your innocence and damaging your reputation and the whole family, if it weren't for me today, you would lie in the same bed with a man I don't know。 ”
"No, it's impossible, I don't believe it, the Hu family is upright, how can this kind of thing be allowed...... The back garden of the Hu family is not something that anyone can enter. Meng Yan trembled all over, and she didn't know whether she was shocked or angry.
"What have you learned in your boudoir?" Su Yiqing looked at Meng Yan with some pity, is this a typical tiger father and dog? Mrs. Meng's scheming methods are not bad, but she has raised a white rabbit daughter who doesn't understand anything, it's really sad and lamentable! It's no wonder that others say that women are virtuous if they are not talented, presumably even if they are not piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, they are also the kind of decent female red cooking skills, at most high-end, for the manners and etiquette of noble women, etc., are always positive, and will not teach those vicious tricks, even if they are for self-defense, they will not teach, because the aristocratic class will not admit that their back house has these dirty things, it is better to stay at home and let your mother call, is not there a saying that it is better to believe in books than no books, Meng Yan only believes in the set of ladies. Fundamentally detached from reality.
After saying that, Su Yiqing didn't stay in the house to stimulate Meng Yan, she had to give her a little time to relax, the little girl, it was very easy to go crazy if she was stimulated all of a sudden, so let their mother and daughter comfort each other, and she finished talking about the things on the surface. The private analysis must be done by Mrs. Meng.
Go back to your room. The night was deep, and after a tiring day, Su Yiqing was very tired. But she still didn't sleep, just sat quietly and closed her eyes to recuperate, thinking of Meng Yan's face that she didn't feel wrong from now on, this face slowly coincided with the face in her memory. Soaked in blood.
It was the first person she had killed, a whore. I wanted to rape a young lady who was disguised as a man and ran out to play, but she happened to run into it, and without thinking about it, she picked up a knife and stabbed him in the back without any precautions, but she couldn't kill him with a knife. The thief turned around and grabbed her by the neck, almost strangling her to death, but fortunately the young lady had brought with her a maid who was also dressed as a man. The maid picked up a stone by the side of the road and smashed the thief's head, and she took the opportunity to pick up the knife that had fallen aside. Another knife was stabbed into the body of the thief, and one knife after another......
The blood of the thief splattered all over her body, so that she did not dare to stare at the red thing for a long time, and she could not wear a trace of red.
The young lady was still dead, and she bit her tongue and committed suicide when she was insulted by the thief, but the biggest misfortune or the biggest stimulus for her was not the death of the young lady, but the maid who saved her, and the maid was stunned on the spot when she saw that the young lady was dead, and one muttered that she had persuaded the young lady and asked the young lady not to come out, but the young lady did not listen or something like that.
At that time, she was deeply stimulated by the escape from death, and she only felt impatient when she heard the words of this maid as if she was shirking her responsibility, and scolded her and said, "If you are a maid, you should persuade Miss, and if you can't persuade her, you must notify the person who can stop Miss, and you can't let Miss be willful for fear of offending Miss, and you have a great responsibility to do this.
Unexpectedly, the maid listened to her words, and only said, yes, she was the one who killed the young lady, and then she died on a broken stone tablet on the side of the road.
In just one cup of tea, she killed people directly and indirectly.
The young lady died, she blamed the maid, the maid died, who was she to blame? Was it her fault? She shouldn't have said those things that irritated the maid, if she hadn't said that, wouldn't the maid not have died, and the bad words hurt people, and she killed a poor man in a few words.
This guilt tormented her for a long time, making her almost break down, and it took a long time for her to figure it out, how could she be blamed for this? There really has to be someone who must be responsible for this, that is, the wayward young lady, everyone knows that it is dangerous to come out to play, otherwise the young lady will not dress up as a man, even if she does not meet the adulterer, and go home safely and soundly, her parents will not punish her severely, but they will definitely punish the maid, which is also the reason why the maid is so afraid, the young lady is dead, she is a maid but she goes back safely, the end must be worse than death, the maid does not know if there are relatives, parents, brothers and sisters are slaves in the master's house, if there is, the family will be implicated, no wonder she will choose to die。
Thinking about it this way, the maid really has no other way to go, if she is alone, she may be able to escape, if there is a large family, escaping will affect the whole family, and it is difficult for a girl's family to survive alone.
So she now hates the willful and reckless Miss Qianjin, knowing that there may be danger, but also insisting on acting willfully, for this kind of willful Miss, she will never leave any affection, she must wake it up with a stick, and she doesn't need to pay attention to the feelings of wayward people and the like, compared to those who are implicated by their willfulness, what is this injury?
She pitied Meng Yan, who would pity her who was affected by Meng Yan's stupidity? Fortunately, Lian Yufeng prevented the development of the tragedy in time, otherwise she would have to bear a debt of conscience again, and it would be difficult for things to end. (To be continued)
