Chapter 250: Punishment
"Welcome Ben Hou back, or do you want Ben Hou never to come back?" Bai Lijin asked softly, his eyebrows and eyes always had a cold smile, he really underestimated the few delicate side rooms in front of him, and it was really not simple. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Hearing Bai Lijin's words, the three of them knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Don't dare." “
"Don't dare, what else are you not dare?"
At this moment, no one dared to speak, and even Zhang, who had always been unfazed, did not dare to say much at the moment, for fear of angering Baili Jin's backlash.
"Master Hou, the matter of the old lady is that the concubine is not taking care of herself, and I hope that Lord Hou will punish her." Zhang was the first to speak, she was in charge of the house, the old lady had an accident, he bore the brunt, at this moment, even if he had the intention to dodge, he couldn't, it was better to admit his mistake first.
It's just that as soon as these words came out, Bai Lijin's fierce gaze turned to her, and there was a scorching flame in her eyes, which seemed to overflow and burn Zhang.
Zhang was a little scared, her body trembled involuntarily, and when she reacted, she hurriedly straightened up, and saw that Bai Lijin's eyes were no longer so sharp, with a hint of sudden color in her eyes.
"You did your best, too." Bai Lijin spoke slowly, as usual, treating Zhang's family with a little more reliance than others, which made Zhang's a little dazed several times, and felt that he had seen it wrong.
When will Bai Li Jin have such a sharp gaze, but fortunately, Bai Li Jin treats himself no differently, and that is enough.
"Master Xie." Bai Li Jin This can be regarded as a disguised appeasement, for such a love, the Zhang family naturally has to accept his affection.
In the next moment, Bai Lijin looked at Roumei and Mei Ruhuan, and finally stopped at Mei Ruhuan, and said coldly: "Mei's disobedience to the rules of the mansion and disrespect for the old lady are for the sake of unfilial piety and disrespect, and openly slander the court officials in the name of the Hou Mansion, and the century-old family motto of the Marquis Mansion is for the sake of inhumanity, injustice and disloyalty. If you dare to make trouble, go straight back to your Shangshu Mansion. ”
Although Bai Li Jin knew in his heart that with Mei's temperament, he didn't dare to directly collide with Bai Li Jin, and he didn't know Liu Xun, and he had no grievances, if he was allowed to stammer Liu Yan, he believed that if he racked his brains to harm him, he still didn't have that ability, but in this matter, the emperor watched, the ministers watched, and the people watched, and the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion was going to come up with a statement after all.
Although it is a bit harsh to demote the daughter of a scholar from a side lady to a maid, this move can also be regarded as a response to the emperor, and the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion will inevitably be official, and from then on, it will be the same as usual, and it has nothing to do with the government.
Even if Mei Shangshu will be resentful, he can't, after all, the more resentful Mei Shangshu is, the more relieved the emperor will be.
Listening to Bai Lijin's words, Mei Ruhuan fell directly to the ground, although he has always been arrogant and domineering, but it was only in the house, if he was asked to do something earth-shattering, she would not be able to, now, if it wasn't for the Zhang family, how would he go to such an errand?
But what can I do if I don't go, Zhang's position in the mansion is the same as the eldest lady, and he steadily suppressed them, and he is the queen's concubine, the concubine of the prince of Zhenguo, and his status is much higher than them, so how dare she refuse, at this moment, she was demoted to a maid by Bai Lijin, and in the future, how can she survive in the mansion, but if she is sent back to Shangshu Mansion directly with a letter of resignation, it will be more cruel than killing her.
So, she couldn't bear it for a while, closed her eyes, and fainted.
Rou Mei hugged her to prevent her from falling directly to the ground, and the next moment, Bai Lijin's eyes fell to her.
"During the old lady's serious illness, the Rou family did not have much merit, did not fulfill filial piety in front of the bed, and lost the duty of being a daughter-in-law, from now on, in the courtyard to the old lady to copy Buddhist scriptures, chant sutras and pray for blessings." Bai Lijin's voice was extremely indifferent.
Rou Shi trembled with fright, but fortunately, Bai Lijin did not directly remove her from her position like Mei Ruhuan, but the grounding in disguise was already a light punishment.
Bai Lijin rubbed his temples with both hands, he was already very tired, for three days, sleepless, day and night rushing back to Kyoto, he had already exhausted all his physical strength, at this moment, if it wasn't for the old lady, he would have fallen asleep, but he forced himself to be awake and awake, because there were still too many things he needed to do, he needed to check, he needed to arrange, he couldn't sleep.
The maid helped Rou and Mei down, Zhang slowly paced in front of Bai Li Jin, and gently hammered Bai Li Jin's shoulder, how could he not see Bai Li Jin's fatigue at the moment, but he was holding on, and she couldn't bear it in her heart.
For Bai Lijin, she loves it very much, but she seems to care more about the position of the eldest lady, she has always had an obsession in her heart, that is, to sit in the seat of the main room as a concubine, if she is not a concubine, the queen's seat is hers, where will it be her sister Zhang Yu's turn.
She was unwilling.
"Master Hou, rest for a while, the old lady is there, the concubine is taking care of her, if there is any movement, I am going to call Master Hou." Zhang's tone was rare and delicate, and he was very glad in his heart, but fortunately, Bai Lijin didn't blame himself, and treated him in the past.
Bai Lijin shook his head, raised his head, his eyes were full of warmth and modesty, and he said softly: "You go back and rest, Benhou still has something to do, and he has been tired in the past few days." ”
Zhang Meng naturally knew that Bai Lijin wanted to be quiet at the moment, so he smiled gently, nodded, and turned to leave.
Looking at his departing back, the warm and modest smile on Bai Lijin's face was all put away, and there were only sharp and angry left, at this moment, if he didn't still have a trace of reason, he would have stabbed them, but he couldn't, at least not yet.
He punished Mei Ruhuan the most harshly because she was the least likely person to design these things, but this matter needed a person to bear it, and she was the most suitable.
And Roumei, as the sister of Rou Gangyu, is very suspicious, as for Zhang Meng, Bai Lijin is the most suspicious person.
But he didn't punish her, but appeased, just to calm his heart.
She is the daughter of the Zhenguo family, the sister of the queen, and her every move, word and deed represents the entire Zhenguo Gong, in other words, the emperor.
If there is an emperor for a day, he will not allow Zhang Meng to fall.
This concubine who is ready to sit in the position of the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion is definitely not simple, if it is not for his insistence, the position of the eldest lady belongs to him.
It's just that at this moment, after the anger, there is indifference.
At the moment, he needed to be quiet, he didn't want to look at any of their faces, that would only increase his killing intent.
He needs to sort things out now, and he always feels that there are things he has missed and forgotten, and those are probably the most important things that can find the truth. (To be continued.) )
