Chapter 107: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
A dead man actually affected dozens of people in the Hou Mansion, and they scolded and denounced Xiaolan continuously, and even circulated various versions, the most popular is that Xiaolan was bought, and the mastermind behind the scenes is still at large. As a result, they have increased their abuse of the masterminds behind the scenes.
Wherever Tian Bing went, he could hear the shouting and scolding of him, and in addition to properly stopping him, he couldn't show too fiercely, otherwise, wouldn't he have exposed his identity without three hundred taels of silver here?
These subordinates may not care, but it is impossible for Hou Ye not to care. Since even the subordinates have guessed this possibility, Hou Ye used to be a powerful courtier by the emperor's side, so he was naturally more intelligent, how could he not think of this layer?
Therefore, Tian Bing's steward acted more cautiously, lest someone catch his abnormality.
Among these punished subordinates, there are many people who have the Seven Princes, these Jing Hao knows, he just wants to alarm them, scare them, of course, the most important thing is to scare Liu Yiyi.
Jing Hao was always so gentle, but he spoiled Liu Yiyi and began to attack Su Xi unscrupulously. If Jing Hao didn't make the appearance that he would be severely punished for violating Su Xi a little, then in the future, Liu Yiyi would still attack Su Xi if he was unwilling.
Killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, there is still a certain reason for the ancients to do this.
And Jing Hao, although he didn't kill people, but he punished too many people in the Hou Mansion, and the people were panicked, so he didn't believe that Liu Yiyi could still be calm.
Liu Yiyi made people attack Su Xi, so that Su Xi underwent torture that ordinary people could not bear, so he mentally destroyed Liu Yiyi, although he could not attack Liu Yiyi now, but at least let her restrain a little, and would not further persecute Su Xi in a short period of time.
After all, in Jing Hao's efforts to clean up all the people who are suspected of the Suxi poisoning incident, and in this Hou Mansion, the one who should be suspected by the people, or the first person who is easy to be suspected by everyone, should be Liu Yiyi.
Liu Yiyi was already sincerely afraid in her heart now, afraid that Jing Hao's punishment would affect her.
After all, Xiaolan has also dealt with herself, and she and Su Xi are the most wrong, so not only others doubt themselves like this, but even Liu Yiyi herself feels that she can't get rid of it, and in the end, Jing Hao will definitely find herself and take her own knife.
However, with the passage of time, people's hearts are panicked, no matter how many people have been punished by Jing Hao, but they have not seen Hou Ye punish Liu Yiyi, or rather, Jing Hao has never been to Yiyuan since Su Xi was poisoned, and when Liu Yiyi wanted to visit Su Xi, he was also stopped by the guards sent by Jing Hao at the gate of Suxi Qingfeng Garden, and kept saying that it was Hou Ye's order.
Liu Yiyi didn't dare to say anything because she was afraid of Jing Hao's current posture of punishing people, so she could only sulk in her heart, and then returned to her Yiyuan to lose her temper with her subordinates, and because of this, the people in Yiyuan were frightened because of Jing Hao on the one hand, and even more frightened because of Aunt Liu on the other hand.
And Liu Yiyi's thoughts, Jing Hao didn't know, she was going to Qingfeng Yuan to visit Su Xi was stopped, and the guards had already reported it to Jing Hao. If you follow Liu Yiyi's previous temperament, she would definitely come back to find Jing Hao to be coquettish or petty, but no, it seems that she is really a little scared and jealous.
After all, the heart is weak.
Ever since Jing Hao knew that Liu Yiyi was the person of the Seventh Prince, and had been in contact with the eyeliner that the Seventh Prince had planted in the Hou Mansion, Jing Hao had been sending people to monitor Liu Yiyi.
Therefore, Bixiang went to contact Nail, that is, when Tian Bing was in charge, Jing Hao knew, but he didn't expect Tian Bing to send an inconspicuous Xiaolan.
Jing Hao has never cared too much about Xiaolan, after all, he is a small character, but as everyone knows, it is precisely because of his negligence of Xiaolan that it will lead to Su Xi's pain later.
Now that things have reached a stalemate, Jing Hao has also punished all the people who should be punished, in the eyes of others, anger is in full swing, but he also shows his love for his wife because of this.
If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Hou occupies an important position in his heart, how could Hou Ye make such a big move for Mrs.
Therefore, there are also such rumors circulating in the Hou Mansion that the lady has regained the favor of the Hou Ye because of this incident. After Liu Yiyi heard this, she became even more angry.
If she really won the favor of Hou Ye because of this, it would be thanks to me, if it weren't for me, Hou Ye would definitely be in my courtyard now, not in Qingfeng Yuan. ”
Liu Yiyi is very good at putting gold on her face, Su Xi obviously suffered because of her, but here in Liu Yiyi, she only saw that Su Xi was favored by the Hou Ye because of this.
Bi Xiang helped on the side: "Madame is right, but Madam, there is one thing that the slave doesn't know whether to say or not." ”
Liu Yiyi raised her eyebrows, and said impatiently: "What's the matter?"
Bi Xiang carefully considered the words and said: "There is such a big disturbance in the Hou Mansion, it has already spread in the capital, and the Seventh Prince has already known, he sent someone to quietly send a letter to the slave maid, and asked the slave to inform the lady that tomorrow evening, he will wait for the lady in the old place, saying that there is something to discuss with the lady." ”
When Liu Yiyi heard this, her heart was also "groaning". Originally, Liu Yiyi was in charge of dealing with Su Xi and let the Seventh Prince's nail do it, but after thinking about it, that person did not inform the Seventh Prince of this matter, otherwise, the Seventh Prince would not have summoned him after the incident.
Although Liu Yiyi did not suffer from the scolding of the Seventh Prince last time, and received the help of the Seventh Prince, she was reminded and warned by the Seventh Prince in disguise, and now Liu Yiyi has made the same mistake again, even worse than the last time, presumably a scolding or punishment is essential.
The place of meeting is in Liuhe Town, which is the contact point for Liu Yiyi and the Seventh Prince to meet secretly, in a quiet and scenic town not far from the capital.
The autumn breeze is wheezing, the dead leaves are withering, the embankment along the river is full of fallen leaves, the boats on the river are rippling, and there are small songs that are melodious and long, but there are many literati and writers who gather here to exchange literature and talk about the so-called ambitions, but there is some taste of sorrow for the new words, and it does not play any role.
