Chapter 196: The Banquet (Part II)
A group of women gathered together, flattering and touting each other, Qian Xi was always the mother of the country at this time, and many people looked down on her in their hearts that she was not a serious family girl, but not everyone dared to expose it, because there were many people who came and went to blow the stick to her. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Such a situation is a pity has long been expected, in the past when she was Mrs. Ming, she has encountered a more unfavorable situation than today, how many people can really dare to show their contempt for her in front of her, born in the world, but if you ask for others, you will be exposed to cowardice, she is the queen compared to Mrs. Ming of the day, the power position is not known to be greater, only a fool will really go against her.
But ah, there is no shortage of fools in this world.
"Mother, queen mother, please ask the queen mother to administer justice!" The calm situation did not last long, the little girls who went out at the right time, at this time, there was a crying and crying running back, kneeling in front of Qianxi, shouting justice, Qianxi said lightly: "Which girl is this?" ”
opened her mouth but heard about the identity of this woman, and the girl was also stunned, she never expected that Qianxi's attention turned out to be her identity, not what she said.
"Niangniang, this is the fourth girl of the Meng family." The girl didn't have time to tell her identity, but Jin Xuan, who was beside Qianxi, had already told her identity. Qian Xi looked at the girl, "Although the Meng family is not as good as the Ming, Qian, Qin, and Shangguan families, it is as famous as the Yang family, and compared to several major families, the Meng and Yang families are all passed down with the fragrance of books, and the girls in the family are also very etiquette. ”
After stopping, the unfinished meaning expressed her disappointment to the Meng family deeply through her gaze, the girl's face turned a little pale, and Qian Xi continued to speak: "If you are just a child at this time, you can still say a word about your youth and ignorance as a guest in their mansion. I think you are about to be in your old age, but you have done such a rude act, if it is not for the Meng family's upbringing, but you did it on purpose. ”
"Queen Mother, I have no such intention." The girl was deducted from such a big hat by Qianxi, and she was so frightened that she was almost gone, and hurriedly bowed down to defend herself, and Qianxi snorted coldly, "Although I am not from a family, I still understand the truth that you can't wantonly quarrel, don't you know?" Knowingly, if not intentionally, what is it? ”
At this time, Qianxi was aggressive, and did not let go of the appearance of the girl in front of her, not that she could not tolerate anyone, but that this woman dared to shout in public, and it was by no means unintentional, if it was not for the fact that this woman did not have half respect for her in her heart, she was instructed by someone, and either of these two was to be punished.
"Niangniang forgives her sins, the little girl has no form, and she is willing to be punished!" A woman of the same age as Qianxi walked to the girl's side, knelt down with the girl, and said words of accusation, but there was no kindness in this, Qianxi said: "Mrs. Meng, your words are serious, but it is just a noise, and it is not my turn to punish her." ”
After saying that, Qian Xi threw it away, "What happened in the palace?" ”
Qianxi asked, Amber walked in outside, and said: "Niangniang, the girls are playing in the garden, I don't know why it is noisy, a girl in the Meng family fell into the water, the Tao was pushed by the girl of the Qianjia family, the girl of the Qianjia family did not admit it, and after two disputes, the four girls of the Meng family went to the mother to ask for justice." ”
Saying that, it was not a group of little girls who walked in together, one of the servants walked in with a little girl, it was a little cold, the lake was very cold, although the girl who fell into the water said that she had changed her clothes, but her face was still a little pale.
At this time, the attention of the whole house is on them, and the people arranged by Amber have already surrounded all the people, since they want to make trouble in front of Qianxi, Amber will make a big fuss, if you want to make a big fuss, if you really want our queen to bully, let people protect this group of people back to the palace.
"Queen Mother, Qiansanniang deceived people too much, the evidence is conclusive but she refuses to admit her mistake, let our second sister fall into the water and suffer the cold, it is really hateful, please Niangniang to uphold justice." The little girl who was standing next to the girl whose hair had not yet dried opened her mouth to complain, and Qian Xi chuckled: "The girl's family is awkward, but she has to make it known to everyone, or so, since it is the way to let me uphold justice, then check it carefully." ”
To this, Qianxi has never been a person who is afraid of things, since there is trouble, then make trouble to deal with it, she is kind to treat, but one by one she only says that she is a bully, and the whole is one by one.
"Since you have conclusive evidence, let's talk about it, what evidence do you have to prove that Qian Sanniang pushed people into the water."
"Niangniang, a few of us have seen it with our own eyes, can there still be a fake. The two sisters of the Qin family, as well as several sisters of the Yang family. The little girl's eyes widened as she pulled the witness out, and two nodded very quickly, while others hesitated.
"Which one is Qian Sanniang?" Although Qianxi is a daughter of a thousand families, she can never have too much intersection with a thousand families, although there are no heirs under the descendants of a thousand families, but there are a lot of girls in the side branches.
Qian Xi asked, and a girl in simple clothes stood up, "The courtier is Qian Sanniang." ”
Just one glance, Qian Xi was a little surprised, it was a very familiar face, and when she looked at it a few more times, Qian Xi thought of where this familiarity came from. Gai is therefore a woman who is three points similar to Qianxi, or more appropriately similar to Qian Moran. Although she is young, she looks like a flower and a moon, and what Qianxi appreciates the most is the calmness and stability of this woman.
"Meng Jiadao pushed people into the water, what do you have to argue?" Qian Xi asked casually, and the Qiansan Niang said: "Niangniang, although the person was pushed by the courtier, the courtier was pushed by someone, which led to the overthrow of the Meng family's sister." ”
"You are talking nonsense, how can anyone push you, obviously you pushed my second sister and still refused to admit it, and I was afraid of being punished, so I found such an excuse." The daughter of the Meng family hurriedly opened her mouth, and said lightly: "I haven't asked you about it." ”
I didn't ask you, but you answered so quickly, how rude. How could the Meng family girl not hear the words of Qianxi, her face immediately turned red, but she was ashamed.
"At the moment, the two parties are deadlocked, if this matter is not resolved, I think you don't have the heart to stay in my Fengluan platform. Perhaps, Amber, did all the people present when the Meng family girl fell into the water? Qian Xi was not embarrassed by their stalemate, and only asked Amber.
"Back to Niangniang, as soon as Miss Meng fell into the water, the slave maid immediately asked everyone to take care of her, and no one was missed." Amber is a secret guard, and she is the best at catching clues, so she doesn't have to be told by a thousand times, she has already asked people to look at the relevant people.
"This is also the first time I have set up a banquet to entertain guests, and I always hope that the host and guest will be happy, in order to show justice, and not to be honest, you have to go with me to the place where the incident happened, to see who disturbed the mood of all of us." When Qianxi said this, he stood up first, and Ye shook his head and said: "There are many people, and it is not good to look at the mother one by one, but it is really noisy." ”
Qian Xi smiled: "Go out for a walk, and when you come back, the food is ready, and you can eat more when you move." ”
Blinking with Ye, Ye listened and said: "It's such a reason, this person wants to make a bad life for his mother, he can't just let someone make such a fuss, he has to whip him hard." ”
Qianxi has to be straight this time, and the Meng family who is making trouble can't say a word, other ladies, there are those who want to watch a good show, and those who want to see Qianxi's jokes, of course, none of them will follow up!
"Niangniang, it was here that the second girl of the Meng family fell into the water." In the garden, because Ming Zhuowei and Qianxi are not the ones who like to be poor and luxurious, the flowers in the garden are only some flowers from the previous dynasty, and they have not been retransplanted, but they look a little bleak.
"But here?" Qian Xi asked the victim, and the second girl nodded, and Qian Xi said, "How did the people who were present just now stand, and they all stood up again towards the original position." ”
Qianxi simply gave orders, everyone was the second monk who was confused, Qianxi called Amber to come over, and whispered with Amber, Amber immediately commanded everyone to stand up, "One by one, stand up!" Just stand up to the position just now! ”
With Amber making a move, the people in the palace didn't dare to hesitate, and they stood up honestly one by one. As soon as Qianxi stood like that, someone had already prepared a chair and placed it behind her, and Qianxi ordered: "Prepare tables and chairs with the older ladies." ”
But it showed her affinity, and the amber made people stand back to their original appearance, and only asked the girl from the Meng family, the Qin family, and the Yang family, "Are you girls standing in such a position?" ”
After getting their unanimous affirmative answers, the girl of the Meng family was still a little dazed, but Qian Xi saw the clarity in the eyes of that Qian Sanniang, Qian Xi was stunned, I didn't expect that there would be such a smart person in the Qian family.
"Qiansan girl, since you said that someone pushed you, who pushed you?" Amber asked very kindly, and Qian Sanniang pointed to her left waist and said, "At that time, I felt someone hit me on my waist." ”
The so-called person who hit Qian Sanniang was also a girl, and her face turned pale with fright: "I, I was also hit by someone." ”
But it was a chain reaction, one by one, all of them were hit by people. When she chased to the root, she was the first girl from the Meng family to rush into the palace to complain. At this time, the girl of the Meng family was completely bloodless, but the lady in charge of the Meng family was very angry, and called the evil obstacle, the evil obstacle!
Qian Xi didn't listen to her words at all, but her eyebrows grew cold, "It's really a good show, a good show written and directed by the Meng family!" ”
Who couldn't hear the displeasure in Qianxi's words, the Meng family shuddered, and quickly knelt down and said: "Queen Mother, Mother forgive your sins!" ”
"Forgive sins, what kind of sin are there, the prestige of the family, the pride of the family, but they are all thrown away, intrigued, and do everything possible to put people to death, but it is really painstaking, it is not enough to hurt people, but it is also to make people substitute for the dead. With such a family, how can they survive in the world with face? "I regretted a question, but it made the Meng family no longer embarrassed.
"In the past, Emperor Zong of the previous dynasty did not like the Taoist divination of Jiangcheng, and wanted to slaughter the people of Jiangcheng Mancheng, the ancestor of the Meng family led the blood of his three sons to splash in front of the king, causing a sensation in the world, and then Emperor Zong was bound by the families, so that the people of Jiangcheng and a city were reborn, so that the Meng family was respected by the world, and entered the family, which was passed down from generation to generation. The Meng family is arrogant, has the people of the world in mind, worries about the country and the people, and hears that the Meng family is hanging on the ancestral hall, which is to warn the Meng family to the children of the Meng family, not forgetting the original intention, and not forgetting the way of serving the country and the people. "For a few years, I have not given up on understanding these families in depth, so that I can also talk about the rise of these families.
It is unthinkable that Qian Xi is so clear about the history of the Meng family, "I know that you and others think that I grew up in the countryside, but I am just a lowly person, although I have the surname of a thousand families, but I am not tolerated by a thousand families." However, I didn't think that I was inferior to grow up in the countryside, and I knew from a young age that I was picked up by my adoptive parents, not their own. There were many rumors in the village, and they never thought of hiding from me, because although I was not their own child, they treated me like their own, and even if their own child was born, they still remembered me the most. ”
"Unlike your family, the poor people are concerned about food and clothing all day long, and there is nothing more important in their hearts than to be well fed and fed. But that poor family, no matter how hard it is, still raised me, when I was seven years old, my family changed drastically, my adoptive father fell in the mountains and broke his waist, and my adoptive mother lost half of her life at that time, and at that time the village Ya Po persuaded them to sell me in exchange for a chance to live for their family, but my adoptive parents, who were dying, beat the man out, saying that they would rather starve to death together than sell me. They told me that they had never given birth to me, but they had watched me grow up little by little, that I was their daughter, and that this would never change, and that they would not abandon me for any reason, and that they would never starve me as long as they had a bite to eat. And they taught me that even if a person is hungry, he can't take other people's things at will, he is greedy and becomes poor, and his life is harder, as long as he is worthy of heaven and earth, even if it is difficult, he will be happy. ”
"They may not have read poetry and books, and they don't know how to govern the world and save the people, but they have a kind and upright heart. If it weren't for their kindness, I would have frozen to death in the wilderness; If it had not been for them, I would have fallen to no avail. Without their insistence, I don't know what it would have been. Because of their teachings, I have always remembered that they used to say those straightforward and plain words. People and things in the world, there is no should, others are willing to give you, good to you, that is the heart of others to you, and others are not willing to be good to you, that is also human nature, so you must always remember, remember in your heart and don't forget, so that you will live soberly for the rest of your life. ”
These words, not only taught by the Zhao family's parents, but also her parents in her previous life, Qianxi has always remembered their words, and it is also with their teachings that she can live peacefully to this day. (To be continued.) )
