Chapter 159: Temporary Punishment
Mu Hibiscus listened to her prevarication and couldn't help sneering, thinking that this is also called an apology? poured such a big sewage on her, in this era, it is almost to the extent of human life, and the little girl whose general psychological quality is not up to par is almost attacked by such rumors and wants to commit suicide, even if she has good psychological quality and will not commit suicide, but it has a great impact on her, if she doesn't say it, she is often pointed at, and the impact on family affairs alone is very great, after all, if Zhao Yao doesn't mind those rumors, but if you change people, I'm afraid you will mind, and then your family affairs will have problems again, and family affairs will have problems twice, then even if this matter is clarified, it is estimated that it will be difficult for family affairs, which is equivalent to ruining her lifeγ Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
almost ruined others, so she used a few words like this to pass away, when she was a bully, right?
So at that moment, Mu Hibiscus said lightly: "I don't look at the process, only look at the results, whether you have been deceived by someone is your business, you slander me is always true, if you have no malicious intentions, don't spread these words everywhere, will you be deceived? So if you don't admit that you deliberately hurt me, or if you admit it, I'm not interested, I just want to see how you use your actions to express your apologies, don't just play lip service, after all, who wouldn't talk about it?"
"I don't understand what you mean. Zheng Xiuxiu's face was blue and red when she was sneered at by Mu Hibiscus, and she became more and more angry in her heart, but because of the reprimands of Wei Xuan and Emperor Yonghe, she didn't dare to show it, so she could only hate and hate it like this.
"It's very simple, in addition to promising not to trouble me again in the future, you have to compensate me for mental damages!" Mu Hibiscus said.
Emperor Yonghe meant that Zheng Xiuxiu apologized and let her go, but Mu Hibiscus was repeatedly troubled by her, and this time she was splashed with black water like this, and the other party's malice towards her almost broke through the sky, spreading such rumors, obviously wanting to kill her, so how could Mu Hibiscus want to let her go so easily, even if she couldn't be killed for the emperor's sake, it was necessary to let her bleed heavily.
"Compensation for mental damages?" Zheng Xiuxiu, who had never heard of this term, did not understand the authentic words, but she already had an ominous premonition.
"Yes! 10,000 taels, this is the actual action I can accept, if there is no actual action, I don't accept your apology, after all, if there is no punishment, no one will be able to step on my feet in the future, anyway, in the end, just say two words of apology. Hibiscus said coldly.
If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't take Zheng Xiuxiu, if she could punish her as much as she wanted, Mu Hibiscus would prefer to really sue her for slander, and then let her go to prison for a few years, then she would be discredited, life would be worse than death, and it would make her more uncomfortable than killing her, this is the best punishment for her, but since it can't work, then it can only be punished like this for the time being- It's really a small punishment, the current Cheng'en Mansion is very rich, and 10,000 taels is not painful for her at all, and such a small punishment, Hibiscus is obviously impossible to be satisfied, so this small punishment is naturally only temporary, and she can only wait for the opportunity in the future to avenge today's revenge.
Mu Hibiscus's words made the princess of Changping and the princess of Changping, who were afraid that she would be bullied by the Cheng'en Mansion, so they couldn't help but be taken aback, but after thinking about it, this is also how it should be, just like Mu Hibiscus said, it is impossible for Zheng Xiuxiu to move her mouth and say a few words of apology, if there is no punishment, in that case, what will happen to the Changping Palace, won't anyone be able to come up and break their mouths in the future, anyway, as long as they are forced to do nothing, just say two words of apology, isn't it?
So the princess of Changping and the princess felt that Mu Hibiscus's request was quite reasonable, so they didn't stop it.
They felt that the request was reasonable, but the people of the Cheng'en Mansion didn't think so, after all, they didn't even want to apologize before, how could they be willing to give money?
Zheng Xiuxiu, who felt that apologizing was already her limit, couldn't help but sneer when she heard Mu Hibiscus's words.
Although her family is rich, she doesn't want to bargain hibiscus for 10,000 taels of silver! So at that moment, Zheng Xiuxiu's face sank and said, "It seems that the county lord of Zhou was poor before, and he is so open-minded!"
She didn't dare to ridicule the Changping Palace, after all, the Changping Palace, which was notoriously rich, and mocking the Changping Palace's lack of money, wasn't that a slap in the face?
These words are really ugly, it can be seen that Zheng Xiuxiu has no sincerity to apologize, otherwise she would not be so cynical at this time.
Mu Hibiscus heard it and was about to refute, but before Mu Hibiscus could speak, Princess Changping said Mu Hibiscus's words, and then Princess Changping also sank her face and said: "Dare to love my granddaughter's damaged reputation is not worth 10,000 taels of silver, in this case, we can only live up to Your Majesty's arrangement, Zongren Mansion has seen it, and your reputation is bad when you see it, and you can buy it back for 10,000 taels of silver!"
In the good days of her granddaughter's banquet, creating this kind of rumor, this is pouring cold water on people's heads when people are happy, it is ten times more hateful than doing this kind of thing usually, as long as she pays 10,000 taels of silver as compensation, it is cheap enough for her, what else does she want?
Zheng Xiuxiu was beaten down by Princess Changping like this, her face turned red again, and she didn't dare to say anything, and Duchess Chengen, who also wanted to follow her daughter to laugh at Hibiscus, didn't dare to squeak when she saw Princess Changping say this, but her daughter was so angry that she didn't want to speak, there must be someone to speak, so at the moment Duchess Chengen had no choice, so she had to laugh and say: "Okay, we will send the silver to the door in two days." β
"Yes. "Princess Changping bowed. "But it's best to send it over within three days, otherwise we will think that you want to repay the debt, and if you sue the Zongren Mansion at that time, your daughter's reputation will be damaged, don't blame us." β
When Duchess Chengen heard Princess Changping say this, her angry face was a little distorted, but she couldn't say anything, so she had to agree with an ugly face.
was scolded by the emperor and Wei Xuan, and was asked for 10,000 taels of silver by Mu Hibiscus, Zheng Xiuxiu was very stunned, and she didn't have the heart to continue to stay here, so she went back with her mother immediately, and the next day, the Duchess of Chengen, who was afraid that the Changping Royal Mansion would trouble the Chengen Mansion because the silver was not handed over, sent 10,000 taels of silver tickets.
And this matter is not over, Zheng Xiuxiu naturally couldn't swallow this breath and wanted to vent her anger, but because she couldn't find the trouble of hibiscus, as soon as she turned around, she found Li Shu and said, "Li slut!
Li Shu is also very happy to see Hibiscus surrounded by rumors these days, thinking that he has passed Zheng Xiuxiu's hands, which can be regarded as a breath of relief, as for the rumors later, the emperor also punished Zheng Xiuxiu to apologize in the past, although she regrets such rumors, it can also be quickly calmed down, but she also thinks that it is not bad to let Hibiscus eat deflated for so many days, so the mood is still very good, how do you know that Zheng Xiuxiu found her violently this day, and her tone was so ugly, she couldn't help but wonder, and she went out of the house immediately, thinking that the other party was the identity of the favored sister-in-law, and she couldn't be offended, so she was being scolded, when he was in a very bad mood, he still laughed and said, "Fourth Miss, is there something wrong?"
Zheng Xiuxiu stepped forward to tear her mouth, and said while tearing: "I'll let you spread rumors! I'll let you spread rumors! If you hadn't spread rumors in front of me, I wouldn't have let people say it, and if you hadn't said it, it wouldn't have made the county lord of Anping angry and troublesome for me! You fucking compensate me for my losses!"
Li Shu saw her beating herself, she couldn't help it anymore, she dodged immediately, and ordered the people around her to help her pull Zheng Xiuxiu, because Li Shu was favored, those subordinates were still obedient and stopped Zheng Xiuxiu, if it weren't for Li Shu's favor, it is estimated that no one would dare to stop Zheng Xiuxiu, after all, Zheng Xiuxiu is a favored lady, and Li Shu is just a concubine, who dares to stop it.
At this time, Li Shu saw that the next person pulled Zheng Xiuxiu away, and couldn't help touching his cheeks that were a little painful - the incident happened suddenly, he didn't stop it at first, but he still let Zheng Xiuxiu get his hand, and he scratched a few marks on his face - he took a breath of cool air, and then remembered Zheng Xiuxiu's words, so he couldn't help but say: "That's my, I just talked about it, but I didn't let you say it everywhere, you talked about it everywhere, and you blamed me?"
Besides, she didn't even want to mention Zheng Xiuxiu's hints that day, obviously she wanted to hear some rumors made by herself, so that she could spread them, otherwise she wouldn't have intentionally asked like that, she wanted to listen to the rumors, and now she blames herself for spreading rumors?
Zheng Xiuxiu obviously didn't think that Li Shu was such a scoundrel, and he pushed the responsibility on herself-well, it was indeed her responsibility, but of course she wouldn't admit it, so she said arrogantly at the moment: "I don't care what you think! Now that my reputation has become stinky by you, I also paid 10,000 taels to Zhou Slut, you give me back this money, and then compensate me 10,000 taels of subsidies, I will expose this matter, otherwise, hmph, see if I don't tell my mother that you started this matter, see if my mother can spare you!"
Although the 10,000 taels was given by her mother, not by her, it did not prevent her from looking for Li Shu to ask for a loss subsidy.
Before she came, she also thought about telling her mother that those rumors were not made up by herself, they were said by Li Shu, but then she thought about it, her brother liked Li Shu so much, with his unstingy character, even if he said Li Shu's rumors, he would probably be moved by what Li Shu just said, and felt that Li Shu was just talking and playing, who let himself spread it, in the final analysis, it was his own fault, and he would not be worse for Li Shu, and if his brother likes Li Shu, her mother will have nothing to do with Li Shu, in that case, wouldn't it be in vain? So she came directly to Li Shu to ask for money, no matter what, she couldn't lose in vain, and then thought, if Li Shu didn't know each other, it would not be too late for her to tell her mother, this is called salute first and then soldier.
Although her mother often gives her money, but the money is always not too much, she also wants to save more private houses, and in the future, there will be more private houses, so that she can live a good life, like her mother, and Princess Changping, can live so nourishingly, so many people stutter, isn't it because they have money in their hands, and the money in their hands is enough for others, so everyone stutters?
Li Shu didn't think that Zheng Xiuxiu was saluting first and then soldiering, seeing Zheng Xiuxiu's lion open his mouth, he asked for 20,000 taels for a mouth, and couldn't help sneering, and said: "You say go, I'm not afraid, how can I have money for you!"
Actually, she really does.
Countless people have befriended the Chengen Mansion, and the Chengen Mansion is also soft in receiving gifts, so can there be no money? And as the only son, the Duke of Cheng'en naturally gives him more than Zheng Xiuxiu, the so-called favored daughter, the Prince of Cheng'en has so much money, and he likes Li Shu, plus Li Shu also has a purpose to dig gold, so naturally in a short time, the waist bag will bulge, even if there are no 20,000 taels of silver, 10,000 taels must also be there.
But even if there is, she won't give it to Zheng Xiuxiu, that's what she knew, and she finally got it, it was her hard work, why give Zheng Xiuxiu this nasty ghost, Zheng Xiuxiu just said it, Zheng Xiuxiu could think that her mother couldn't do anything about her, and Li Shu naturally wanted to get it.
To say that at the beginning, Li Shu was a little afraid that Duchess Chengen would not treat her well, but after a few times Duchess Chengen treated her a little badly, she pretended to be in front of the prince of Chengen, and the prince of Chengen felt sorry for her, and after supporting her, she no longer put Duchess Chengen in her eyes, so she was not afraid of her, so Zheng Xiuxiu said that she wanted to tell her mother, then she would be afraid of her?
Besides, Zheng Xiuxiu will get married soon, and there will be a Duchess Chengen in the mansion at that time, without Zheng Xiuxiu next to her ideas, Duchess Chengen is lonely, so there is no need to be afraid - she is not afraid that Li Xin will cooperate with Duchess Chengen, because even if she cooperates, Li Xin, who is not favored by the prince of Chengen, is worse than Zheng Xiuxiu, so what is she afraid of?
Zheng Xiuxiu saw that Li Shu was not afraid of his threat at all, and couldn't help but be angry, and pointed at Li Shu's nose at the moment, and said, "You wait, you are good-looking!"
Li Shu didn't think she could do anything to herself, and when she saw that Zheng Xiuxiu was defeated and she was victorious, she laughed and said, "Okay, I'll wait." β
Zheng Xiuxiu saw that Li Shu was not afraid at all, and smiled arrogantly, almost vomiting blood in anger, and secretly said that she was really stupid, she thought that she and Li Xin were two, she was much better than Li Xin, and now it seems that she is worthy of being a family, and it is all the same! No wonder the two would fight to the death back then, yes, a slap doesn't make a sound, it must be that this Li Shu is not a good thing, the two will fight like that, and they have been fighting until now.
Zheng Xiuxiu is not easy to mess with, so looking at Li Shu like this, she is naturally unwilling, although she thinks that it is useless to tell Duchess Chengen that she is afraid, but she still said it, after all, she always has to try it, maybe her brother will not cover Li Shu?
