Chapter 118: Impersonation
"Fujin, there are a few posts here, all of which want to come in and say hello to you." Xinlan walked in with a few stickers, Zhaojia's needs to recuperate, and ordinary people's posts will not be sent in to disturb them.
The relationship is sufficient, Xinlan only needs to report her name, and Zhao Jia's family weighs it and decides whether to see it or not. If the relationship is not enough, it is already rare to accept a gift and let someone like Xinlan or Mama Yan go out and take a look.
It's worth Xinlan to take the post in and don't say the name, generally the gift is more expensive, and Fujin can't see it at a glance. Even if you see it, it's just to let people come in and kowtow, and you don't need to entertain anything.
"My brain hurts, let my sister help me take a look." Zhao Jiashi covered her head, she often had headaches this time, and she couldn't find the cause, according to the doctor, she was too tired some time ago.
"Yes." Wu took the posts and flipped them one by one.
When I saw the post of the Buzhuang Shi family, my eyelids jumped suddenly. His face was silent, "There are not many people, I see, let me see it for my sister." It's hard for them to be so filial, all over the world, not to mention whether these gifts are expensive or not, they are extremely difficult to get, and they have a heart. โ
"Okay, you can go and meet it." Zhao Jiashi didn't ask much and let Wu take the post.
Outside, Wu's grandmother stopped Xinlan, "Sister, hurry up and get busy, and we will do it by informing the guests." Let's go, Fujin needs someone here. โ
Xinlan thought about it, so she nodded, "It's all sitting in the gatehouse, send a little girl to shout, and come in in batches to kowtow to Shu Fujin, that's it." โ
"Ah, the old slave can save it." Mama called the little girl to inform, and helped Wu to sit in the side hall of Zhaojia's family.
"Master, don't worry, maybe it's just a coincidence." The surname Shi is also a businessman, just looking for an opportunity to cling, it is not surprising, the old lady comforted.
"Coincidentally, it happened to give such a heavy gift. When he went to call someone, he gave a clear command. Wu entered the side hall, withdrew all the maids who were waiting inside, and said hatefully.
"The command is clear, and there is no mention of who saw them, but only brought them." She is Wu's grandmother, a participant in this qiฤ, how could she not know Wu's mind.
"Is there anyone guarding outside?"
"Don't worry, the people we brought are all guarding the door, and we promise that no one else will come." Mama Ma was also sweating profusely, this is Zhaojia's yard, if there is a little omission, everyone will die.
"Damn, I should have offered to see them somewhere else." The Wu family also sensed that something was wrong, but when she saw the Shi family's post just now, she was calm and disorganized, and she didn't arrange it properly for a while.
"As I said just now, Fujin may not be accurate, if it arouses her suspicion, the gains outweigh the losses." At this point, Mama Nan had no choice but to comfort Wu not to think too much.
"That's all it can be." Wu took a deep breath, saw everyone else first, and made them kowtow and leave. In the end, Mrs. Shi was brought up, and as soon as she entered the side hall, Mrs. Shi made a big salute.
Where did Mrs. Shi dare to look up at the current Zhaojia family, only staring at her skirt and talking, saluting in a proper manner, and then said: "I learned that Fujin was sick and needed to recuperate, so I really shouldn't come to bother, but there is one thing, the matter is too big, and the women dare not report it." โ
"Oh, why are you so strict?" Wu's fingers clenched tightly, and he glanced at the grandmother, knowing that it was probably the worst outcome.
"It's windy outside, and the old slave closes the door." Mama Granny interjected very naturally and closed the door of the side hall.
"Fujin ......"
Prince Yi hurried back to the palace from the palace, and asked his subordinates, "What's the matter, it's not that you just need to recuperate, why did you faint suddenly." โ
"Fu Jin just woke up, knowing that we had invited back the prince, and scolded the slaves and maids, saying that we made a big fuss." The man who led the way looked ashamed and almost cried.
The prince breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, you're doing well, you should notify me quickly if you have something." It's just a trip back, it's nothing. If something happens and I'm not there, how can I be fine? Who's there now? Didn't the doctor come? โ
"The imperial doctor asked for a pulse and left, but Fu Jin didn't let the young grandmother and the little prince enter the house, so they had to go back again. When the slave came out just now, it was Shu Fujin who was talking with Fujin. The maid spoke very clearly, and the prince nodded with satisfaction.
"Fujin asked you to go from this side, and there are female guests coming to the door over there." Someone came out again, it was Xinlan.
Fujin's courtyard is different from others, it was to facilitate Hongyun to enter, and another door was opened, anyway, at that time, Zhaojia's was unprincipled to spoil children, and no one dared to say that it was unruly. When Hongyun went to the front yard, the door was locked and rarely opened.
Even after a long time, people who are not in this courtyard are about to forget about it.
At this time, Xinlan led the way, and Prince Yi had a hesitant expression on his face, but he didn't ask anything. followed Xinlan to the door on the other side and went directly into Zhao Jia's bedroom.
"Tell me, what the hell is going on, is something wrong?" When Prince Yi saw Zhao Jia's family, wearing a moon-white dress, no jewelry on his head, and no embroidered shoes on his feet, he knew that something big must have happened, and his heart beat violently.
"Lord Wang, please come with your concubines." Zhao Jiashi pushed open a bookcase in the bedroom, and there was a quiet room behind it. There are Buddhist shrines, incense and candles are lit, and the fables from the Buddhist scriptures are painted on the wall of one of them.
Zhao Jiashi waved lightly, said the word "come" with his mouth, and sat down on a chair against the wall.
As soon as Prince Yi sat down, he heard an incomparably clear voice from the other side of the wall, which was the voice of the Wu family, which he was extremely familiar with. It turned out that this was not a wall, but a screen disguised as a wall.
"Fujin, our family really doesn't know about this matter. At this time, I realized what they had done, and as the owner, we should be punished, and we only ask Fujin to spare the children in the family for the sake of our first complaint. โ
Wu clutched his collar tightly, and his voice was obscure, "What you said is true, where are the other witnesses?" โ
"The women dare to swear with their lives, every sentence is true, the family of the steward of Tian and the steward of the king, as well as their mother-in-law, are all imprisoned in the homes of the people's women, and their confessions and paintings are all in the hands of the people's women." Mrs. Shi was in tears and touched the ground with her head, in order to gain Fujin's mercy.
"What about the confession?" Wu asked.
"In the women's house, they can be delivered at any time." Mrs. Shi replied respectfully.
"Don't come." Wu opened his mouth too eagerly in a panic, and immediately calmed down and said, "I mean, I will send someone to check it myself." โ
"Yes." Mrs. Shi responded with some uneasiness, and the moment she looked up, she happened to see Wu's face. She shuddered and quickly lowered her head.
Mrs. Shi knew that she had fallen into a trap, she had seen Zhao Jia's side before, although it had been many years, it was impossible for Zhao Jia's to suddenly change her appearance, from a goose egg face to a melon seed face. She squeezed her palm tightly to keep herself from showing anything unusual.
Although I came back to the palace for the first time, my post was handed in, and someone came to pick it up, so it was impossible to mistake the person who visited. Could it be that this Wu clan has already controlled the entire palace. Her back was soaked with sweat in an instant.
"Mrs. Shi, why don't you drink tea, is it because the tea in the palace is not palatable?"
"No, no, it smells fragrant, it must be good tea." Mrs. Shi picked up the teacup in her hand, and her hands couldn't stop shaking. The beads of sweat fell directly into the teacup, making a "bang" sound, which scared her body and almost shook the teacup.
"Drink." Wu saw Grandma nodding at her, and knew that there was a good โกโก in the tea. guaranteed that as soon as she returned to the Shi family, she would be poisoned to death, and then let her mother's family send someone to the Shi family to take over the people and confessions.
Although the whole plan was very risky, at this time, she couldn't care so much.
I only hate this Shi family for being too shrewd, and Steward Tian is just the steward of their family, and he is not a subordinate who sells himself, so he stares at it so closely. If it hadn't been discovered by the Shi family, this matter would have passed.
Mrs. Shi knew that she would die, and it made no difference if she drank and died on the road and not in the palace.
With grief in his heart, he smashed the teacup to the ground, "Side Fujin, you pretended to be Fujin to see the people's woman, are you really not afraid that Fujin will know?" โ
"You can see it, you seem to be smart." Wu smiled, she was also a little flustered in her heart, this is the courtyard of the Zhaojia family, if she shouts out, how can it be good.
But he refused to admit defeat, "I can hide from Fujin and get you to my yard, but I'm not afraid that you will recognize you." If you are willing to hand over your people, and then retreat to Jinling, and move thousands of miles away to settle down, I can consider sparing your life. โ
"Really?" Mrs. Shi held her breath, very nervous. She can't care about the justice or injustice of the palace, what she worries about is the safety of her family.
"Of course, I lied to you about something." Wu smiled, if they were really willing, she might as well agree first. As long as there is no one to testify to, they will come back in the future, can the prince believe their words?
"The women promise you, we will move immediately and leave Jinling, those people will stay in the old house, and Shu Fujin will send someone to resettle." Mrs. Shi felt that as long as she could leave the palace alive, she could agree to anything first.
"Take Mrs. Shi out." Wu said to his grandmother.
"Yes." Mama Shi walked out with Mrs. Shi, making Mrs. Shi a little stunned, so simply let her go?
In the quiet room, Prince Yi's hand was dragged by Zhao Jia's family, staring at him firmly with his eyes, not allowing him to speak, let alone acting rashly.
Zhao Jiashi dragged Prince Yi out of the quiet room and back to his bedroom. Prince Yi was already trembling with anger, "What do you mean, why are you stopping me." โ
"Sit down, let's have a meal together in the evening, this is the last time." Zhao Jia's tone was extremely calm, as if he was talking about someone else's family.
Prince Yi was about to speak, but Zhao Jia looked at him, his eyes as cold as a knife, "You think it's inappropriate." โ
"Nope." Prince Yi was silent for a while and nodded.
At the family banquet in the evening, Zhao Jiashi said that he slept all afternoon, and his illness suddenly cured, indicating that heart disease still needs heart medicine.
"Heart disease, what heart disease can Fujin have." The Fucha clan finally came back from Xishan, and sat down with his daughter-in-law, smiling and groaning.
Zhao Jiashi just smiled and raised his glass, "I'm very happy today, everyone should have a drink with me." โ
Everyone raised their glasses, including Prince Yi. Zhao Jiashi raised his head and drank it in one gulp, and two flushes appeared on his face.
Wu looked in the direction of the door from time to time, and Zhao Jiashi couldn't help but say, "What are you looking at?" โ
"Oh, it's my grandma, I just went to see off a guest, why haven't I come back now." Wu's heart was beating faster, and he scolded in his heart, he just tied up someone, why was it so difficult.
"Xinlan, you go and invite the Wu family's grandmother in." Zhao Jiashi glanced at everyone calmly and commanded.
"Yes." Xinlan quickly turned around, and two rough mothers-in-law dragged the grandmother up like a dead dog.
"What's going on, should Fu Jin give me an explanation. Lord, my grandmother is old, what mistakes have she made, and it is worth treating Fujin like this. Wu's heartbeat was almost overflowing his chest, how could Grandma Grandma fall into the hands of Fu Jin, what about Mrs. Shi, why didn't you see Mrs. Shi.
Prince Yi looked at the Wu clan with a sad expression, "Wu clan, at this time, don't you have anything to say to me?" โ
"Lord, what do I have to say, the concubine has always been her duty, and she has been serving here in Fujin during this time, where do you know what happened." Wu looked aggrieved, biting his thin lips, and the tears in his eyes couldn't fall, so pitiful.
"Amma, what's going on?" The fourth elder brother looked frightened and stood up.
"You sit down." Looking at the fourth elder brother, Prince Yi really couldn't say anything serious, his young son, a son who was smart and clever enough to please him. Unable to bear to look at his eyes, Prince Yi simply turned his head.
"Wu, do you know your mistake? If you know that you are wrong, you can be given a decent face, and you don't have to make a fool of yourself in front of the children. Zhao Jiashi stared at her, more than 20 years of grudges, what she forced herself to forget, and even self-hypnosis was really an unexpected grudge, and finally revealed in front of people in the truest posture.
"Fujin, I don't know what's wrong with the concubine. If Fu Jin wants to teach the concubine a lesson, the concubine will bear it, but the grandmother is old and frail, and she also asks Fu Jin to let her go, and every qi is suffered by the concubine. โ
"Amma......" the fourth elder brother said anxiously.
"Shut up." Prince Yi finally became angry, and the fourth elder brother was stunned by the roar, and stood in place in a daze.
"Bring everyone in." Zhao Jiashi nodded at Mama Yan.
Soon, Zhao Jia's courtyard was full of people. The Shi family and his wife, the lord of the Wang family, the Tian steward and the Wang steward and the wife, as well as the mothers of the two stewards' wives. Standing in two rows, everyone was stunned, not understanding what this meant.
