The four mothers-in-law are usually in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they are specifically for Chu Qinglan and Ye Shangwen to punish the subordinates who have done wrong things, and they are originally full of fierce and vicious momentum. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But after being taught a merciless lesson by Ye Jiu, coupled with Ye Shangwen's abandonment without hesitation, the ferocious momentum on their bodies was gone.

At this moment, the only prayer in their hearts is to hope that the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in front of them, who had been despised by them, can send a kind heart and leave them with a life.

Because of this, they didn't dare to answer the questions asked by Ye Jiu truthfully.

Among them, the mother-in-law, who had injured her leg and was still unconscious, supported her body with her arms, knelt down in front of Ye Jiu honestly, and said in a trembling voice: "Miss Hui, the four old slave sisters entered the mansion together. When Lord Xiangye was the editor of the Hanlin Academy, the old slaves had already been serving in the mansion, and it had been sixteen years. ”

Hearing the mother-in-law's answer, a light flashed in Ye Jiu's eyes, because of the eagerness in his heart, his two hands subconsciously grasped the armrests on both sides of the chair, leaned forward slightly, and the shadow cast down was completely shrouded in the mother-in-law.

She opened her lips lightly and said slowly: "Next, every word I ask you must be answered truthfully. Otherwise, I don't mind letting you taste what life is better than death. ”

There was a cold coercion in her voice, which made the bodies of the four mothers-in-law tremble uncontrollably, but they didn't dare to slack off, and they nodded yes one by one.

Ye Jiu was very satisfied with the deterrent effect of the four mothers-in-law, relaxed his body again, leaned back on the chair, half-squinted his eyes, and asked, "So, when my mother was still alive, you served in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

The four mothers-in-law were confused and thought for a while, and then one of them suddenly said: "Yes, when the first lady was still there, the four slaves and maids were the rough maids in the lady's yard." Later, the lady died, and the slaves and maids were called by the old lady to serve, and then the step-lady entered the house, and within two years, the slaves and maids were used to doing rough work and had great strength, so they were transferred to the yard of the step-wife, to do, to be thugs. ”

After the woman finished speaking, she raised her head slightly, looked at Ye Jiu cautiously, and met her cold gaze at first glance, so frightened that her soul trembled, and she almost rolled her eyes and fainted.

He lowered his head in fear, trembled and fell to the ground, not daring to raise his head again.

Ye Jiu's half-squinted eyes slowly opened, his gaze coldly swept around the four mothers-in-law, and said in a deep voice: "Today, the four of you are bold enough to dare to do something to me." In my case, if you collide with your master, you will be hit with fifty boards at the lightest. At this, she paused slightly.

When the four mothers-in-law heard that they were going to receive fifty boards, they broke out in a cold sweat, and there was only one thought in their hearts, I am afraid that this life will be explained here.

After a short period of fright, one by one they wept bitterly and kowtowed to Ye Jiu to intercede, their foreheads slammed on the cold ground, like beating a drum.

Ye Jiu had seen enough of the play, so he coughed lightly, and after seeing that the four of them coughed lightly, they all stopped moving, looked at themselves pleadingly, and casually turned their eyes to the window.

Looking at the deep night, Ye Jiu said slowly: "It's Layue now, and seeing that the New Year is approaching, I don't want to see blood, so I give the four of you a chance to redeem your merits." In a moment, I will invite a gentleman to come, and you will help each other to recall what you have seen and heard in the Prime Minister's Mansion over the years, and then tell that gentleman. If you are satisfied with what you recall, not only will you not be punished, but you will also be beneficial. ”
