Chapter 65: Equal
Ji Shi seemed to have been poured a scoop of cold water on his head, only to feel a trembling all over his body, and even his heart couldn't help but tremble. www.biquge.info From birth to now, no one has dared to be so strict with her, and she has always been extremely arrogant, and she can't accept the facts in front of her.
But what can she do, this damn old woman happened to come to live in the house at this time, and it was clear that she was avenging her previous personal vendetta. If I knew this, I might as well poison her in the first place and pull her down!
Jing Yan looked at the Ji family whose face was blue and white for a while, although she didn't know what she was thinking, but she also knew that she was about to collapse, she was arrogant, where had she suffered like this, as long as she was excited, I am afraid that there would be a big fuss.
How did she know that she had crawled out of the private heap, and she wanted to plot against her, and she didn't want to think about whether she was qualified or not!
Mrs. Gao was angry at the moment, she kept thinking about how this daughter-in-law looked at her face when she had not yet separated from the family, and she relied on her power to point fingers in the house several times, and even disposed of all the maids she left behind, how could such a poisonous woman stay by Guanghe's side!
"Don't kneel yet!"
Gao's voice was like a needle piercing Ji's heart, her whole body trembled violently, her knees suddenly weakened, and she was almost about to kneel.
But the persistent pride in her heart made her unable to bear such a thing. Why! Why do you want to kneel down to this bad old woman? Why did Wang Luan, who was both civil and military, want to give way to that cripple? Why!
Ji lowered his head and remained motionless, like a wooden carving, as if he hadn't heard Old Taijun's words at all.
Gao's eyes widened, and she wanted to scold angrily, but she heard a sudden plop, and a person behind Ji suddenly fell to his knees, his body trembled like sifting chaff, and his mouth said intermittently: "Old lady...... The old lady calmed his anger...... None of this was done by Madame, it was all me, it was all my ......"
"What did you say?" Gao stood up, the wrinkles on his face were a little hideous due to anger, "Do you know what you're talking about!" ”
That person was none other than Mother Rong, who had been doing all the bad things by Ji's side. At this moment, Rong's mother was full of horror, and the sweat of the bean was rolling down her forehead, sliding down her neck and into her shirt, making her shiver coldly.
She didn't dare to look at Gao's terrifying gaze, but just glanced up at Ji beside her slightly, and when she saw that the other party nodded to herself, she was immediately relieved, and said seriously: "It's all made by the old slave, and the termites were asked by the old slave to get into the mansion to frame Aunt Yang." ”
Jing Yan looked at Rong's mother with a calm face silently, she was talking about Aunt Yang, and she didn't mention herself, obviously to shirk part of the guilt. The trick of abandoning the pawn to protect the car was used in the end. It's just that it will make you fool around so smoothly?
"Mother Rong, you have to think clearly, how much of a crime this is, not to mention that it is not practical for you to be able to drive people outside the mansion alone, not to mention that Aunt Yang has no grievances with you, why do you want to frame her?"
Mother Rong kowtowed to Jing Yan, her face had regained her calmness, she seemed to be really repentant, and there was only pain and remorse on her face: "Young lady, the old slave is doing everything for Madame!" The old man rested in Aunt Yang's room every day, and the lady advised him to let the rain and dew evenly, not to provoke the backyard to be jealous, but it was useless, he could only wash his face with tears all day and night, Mrs. was an old slave who grew up, and the old slave really couldn't stand it, so he had to use a trick to let the master leave Aunt Yang, I only hope to be able to share the worries for Mrs. ”
As soon as these words came out, the hall was stunned. Rong's mother is not a treacherous and cunning old mother, her words, both openly and secretly, are saying that Yang Rou is a pet, not because of Ji's terrible jealousy, but because Yang Rou has harmed this family, so these unfortunate things happened.
It's despicable to not forget to step on a foot when you are dying! Fortunately, Yang Rou was not here at this time, otherwise the bones of her body would have to be fainted by her.
"Mother Rong, since you have taken the blame, your mother is naturally innocent. However, I still have a few questions I want to ask, tell me, how did you get the termites outside? How did you get in touch with that person, and how did you end up in the house? It's best to tell it word by word, if there is a lie, don't say it's you, even if it's all the family, don't want to live! ”
Mother Rong was shocked when she heard this, and looked at the young lady's expression, not like she was joking.
To tell the truth, she took the blame for Ji's family for the sake of her family. Now, his sons, daughters and even relatives are on errands in the house, as long as she is sacrificed, the Ji family will naturally sympathize with himself and give his family a good future.
But Jing Yan's words made her feel bottomless, if her family's lives could not be saved, then she would come out by herself, but this sin, wouldn't she be stabbed in vain?
"I ......" Rong's mother didn't think about these questions carefully, but she couldn't speak for a while.
Jing Yan looked at her panicked look and sweat on her face, just smiled slightly, and said slowly: "Mother Rong, you are an old man in the house, and telling the truth will only benefit you, I believe this, you should understand it yourself." ”
At this moment, Rong's mother struggled to the extreme in her heart, and almost blurted out that the mastermind behind it was Ji's. But if the lady falls off the horse, he will not have good fruit to eat, and if he keeps his wife, his whole family will die.
God, why would you let yourself make such a choice?!
Suddenly, Rong's mother seemed to have made a decision, but before she could speak, she suddenly saw a shadow quickly walk in from the door of the main hall of the palace.
"Wait a minute!"
Everyone was stunned, and they all looked up in the direction of the door.
I saw a golden shadow quickly come into view. It was a woman in a light gold dress, the hem of which seemed to be a feather robe woven by a fairy, shining faintly in the sun, and embroidered with a hundred flowers of hibiscus beasts like clouds.
Her head, hands, and neck were dazzling precious jewels, and the armor on her little finger alone was embedded with dozens of different gemstones, and the fire was dizzying.
But as soon as the gaze shifted to her face, the beautiful dress and glittering jewels were eclipsed.
She had a perfect goose-egg face, her skin could be blown and broken, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and there was a scarlet tear mole at the end. The phoenix eyes, which were a little rude, radiated a noble aura, and between Gu Pan were indescribable lingering styles, and the whole face seemed to be soft, like a deep orchid, the more it opened, the more attractive it became.
At this moment, everyone's attention was on her face, but they forgot what she had said. Only the old lady in the hall frowned slightly, the stern color on his face had faded a lot, but there was a faint condensation of unhappiness between his eyebrows.
On Ji's dead face, a thick burst of joy suddenly burst out, and she almost threw herself over as if she was grasping a life-saving straw, and Ying Ying fell down under the woman's skirt.
"Second Princess!"
Those who were still immersed in the amazement woke up like a dream, and the entire main hall suddenly fell to its knees.
Jing Yan naturally knelt down, she secretly calculated in her heart, it turned out that this was the big backer of the Ji family, Ji Wenbin's daughter Ji Yun!
It is rumored that Ji Yun has received the most severe teaching since she was born, because of her beautiful face and noble birth, the whole family pinned their hopes for the future on her, and easily prevented her from attending the banquet, hiding it tightly, which made everyone in Pingjing curious.
But by the time Ji Yun and Lu arrived, the emperor was already dying, and the prince had already said about his family, and Ji Yun, who had grown up in the palm of his hand, naturally refused to succumb to the side concubine.
At that time, Ji Wenbin relied on the promotion of the second prince, all the way forward, he was a very cunning person, different from the eyes of ordinary people, knew how to make trade-offs, and after weighing the pros and cons, he unexpectedly married the pearl of his palm to the second prince.
As for the second prince, he knew that the other party did not choose him at the beginning, but he didn't care about it, and happily accepted this family business, and the reason for it was probably only he himself who understood.
It wasn't until after getting married that everyone suddenly realized that the Ji family had produced such a peerless beauty!
In the entire main hall, only the Gao family had an order, she didn't have to bow, she just stood up and bowed lightly to Concubine Yun.
Ji Yunlian moved lightly, walked to Mrs. Gao's side, held her hand and smiled gently: "Mrs. Gao, they are all their own people, why be polite." ”
Ji Yun's voice is very good, the words are smooth and clear, and the tone is elegant, as if the nightingale is singing, which makes people really iron in their hearts.
But what kind of person is Gao, she has long been accustomed to ups and downs, and she naturally won't take such hypocrisy to heart: "Where the second princess says, the dignity of the royal family is insurmountable, and the old body will not break the rules." ”
The smile on Ji Yun's face stiffened for a moment, but then vanished. She glanced lightly at Ji, who was kneeling on the ground and embarrassed, but her eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the picky look on the other side.
It was an extremely beautiful face, the delicate white and tender skin seemed to be transparent, the sun shone on her, almost not like a woman in the world, only wearing plain clothes, but she was even more bright and moving, breathtaking.
A beautiful woman always cares about her appearance, and now when she sees someone on her par, she naturally classifies her as an opponent.
Ji Yun seemed to have just discovered it, her slender white fingers pinched the cuffs and half-covered her lips, and pretended to be surprised: "Auntie, what's the matter, it's so cold on the ground, why are you kneeling?" ”
Ji Yun made a gesture to go up to help her, but Gao said coldly: "The family is disgraced, I'm afraid it will stain the ears of the second princess, please avoid it, and wait for the old body to deal with this, and then go to the front hall to entertain." ”
Ji Yun waved his long sleeves, and there was just the right amount of displeasure in his voice: "No need!" Come on, bring a chair and sit down for your aunt, how can the dignified lady of the palace be treated like this and forget all the respectful etiquette! ”
She was talking about the next person, but in fact she was alluding to the Gao family, such a powerful person with grace and power, so that Jing Yan silently wrote it down.
The second princess has an innate nobility, the girl in the room looked at her, and then looked at the Gao family, but she didn't dare to move much, which one of them offended was death, it was better to stand still. , the horizontal and vertical law does not blame the public.
The girl who came with the second princess took a stool and sat down for Ji, who kept crying and crying, and kept shouting that he was wronged. Mrs. Gao didn't care about her, and let her talk nonsense on the side.
After understanding the whole story, Ji Yun's noble and beautiful face raised a shallow smile: "What should I do, it turned out to be a misunderstanding!" ”
Misunderstand? Jing Yan sneered in his heart, such a big matter, can a misunderstanding be solved?
As if sensing what Jing Yan was thinking, Ji Yun glanced at her, and then said: "It's not a secret, recently, officials in many regions have written to say that there is a precursor to termite disasters, and the emperor privately asked the second prince to go to the disaster area to investigate, in order not to cause panic in Pingjing." The second prince took some samples of termites and returned to his home for study, but fortunately, the problem was finally solved. ”
"But this was supposed to be taken out and destroyed, probably because the subordinates misheard the master's meaning and accidentally sent it to your mansion, so there was today's misunderstanding."
Behind the old lady Gao is the Jixing Marquis Mansion, and the person supported by the Jixing Marquis is the crown prince, and there is always some disgust for the second prince's eyesight, and this disgust coupled with Ji Yun's identity is even more obvious: "Oh? Is that so? But the imperial concubine, Mother Rong has already admitted her sins, how did she drive so many people to be a subordinate, you tell me, is this also a misunderstanding? ”
"Mrs. Gao, you have said that Mother Rong has already admitted her sins, since this is the case, isn't this matter clear. As for why she was able to move so many people, you also know that she is an old mother, she always has some savings in hand, and money can make the ghost grind, this sentence, I think the old lady should have heard it, right? ”
Although Ji Yun was standing at the bottom of the hall, she looked directly at Gao with a condescending gaze, and the eyes of the two seemed to meet in the air, and after a period of silence, Old Taijun Gao narrowed her eyes: "Then according to the meaning of the imperial concubine, how should this matter be handled?" ”
Ji Yun's long eyelashes fanned slightly, and he said: "Hand over that slave to me to deal with, after all, this matter involves the task handed over by the emperor to the second prince, presumably the old lady will not have any objections, right?" ”
If it was before, when it came to sharp teeth, Jing Yan was definitely the number one person in the palace. But now, the woman in front of her, whose face is as elegant as an orchid, exudes the aura of nobility all over her body, not only can she not find any flaws in her gestures, but she also can't reply to her words.
If the Ji family is a difficult opponent, then the noble and beautiful second princess is probably the real ruthless at the moment.
Jing Yan's face was lowered, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, so it seemed that he had another opponent who was on equal footing.
Sure enough, the Gao family was defeated in the end, she sighed, swept the entire main hall with a sharp gaze, and finally announced the result of the disposal: "Mother Rong committed the following crimes, intending to murder, framing the innocent, and handing it over to the second princess for disposal, as for Ji Guizhi, there is no way to discipline, indulge in evil, be grounded for a month, copy Buddhist scriptures one hundred and eight times, and meditate on her own mistakes!" ”
Ji's eyebrows were raised slightly, and Fang Cai's embarrassment was swept away, and sure enough, this old woman didn't lose to herself! Punishments such as grounding and copying scriptures are better cultivated than self-cultivation! But she didn't expect that Mrs. Gao would have something to say-
"The Ji family has been grounded for a month, and the affairs of the mansion have been handed over to the eldest young lady to deal with, so be it!"
