Chapter 119: Dressing Change
Another heart-rending scream reached his ears, and it seemed to exhaust all the strength of his master. Xiyan's legs couldn't help but weaken, and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Mama Yun was quick and helped her,
"Beware." Mama Yun whispered.
Xiyan subconsciously grabbed her arm and let her help herself into the house.
"Locked up in the firewood room!" Eniang's cold voice suddenly sounded in her ears. A little girl with a raw face was escorted down by several servants. When passing by, Xiyan glanced at it inadvertently, but this glance scared her half to death - I saw that this girl's face had been beaten so that she couldn't see her original appearance, bruised and purple, with undried blood, indescribably hideous and terrifying!
"Side Fujin, please go in." Mama Yun whispered, and then closed the door behind her.
In the main hall, Chunxue was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and the Eniang on the main seat was pale.
Hearing the footsteps, both of them looked at her together. Xiyan was wondering why Chunxue was here, remembering the tragic situation of the girl just now, she hurriedly looked at Chunxue. Fortunately, she was not injured, but she had a small white face, and she couldn't see anywhere......
At this time, when Chunxue saw her coming, her eyes showed a look of despair and sadness, which made Xiyan quite incomprehensible.
Xiyan didn't care about being afraid, so she hurriedly stepped forward, leaned down and said respectfully, "Eniang-" Before she finished speaking, a slap suddenly came to her face, and Xiyan fell to the ground unsteadily, and half of her face suddenly hurt hotly.
"Gege-" Chunxue just wanted to go over to help her, but was held down by several servants.
"Eniang......" Xiyan covered her face and raised her head in disbelief.
"Don't call me Eniang, I don't have a daughter-in-law like you!" Lao Fujin said, raising his hand to fight again.
Xiyan was stunned by the sudden change, and forgot to react for a while, only to watch the slap fall on him again.
"Eniang, what are you doing here?" Li Xuan heard the movement, rushed from the inside, and reached out to hold his mother's wrist.
"Could it be that you are still going to indulge her at this time?" Lao Fujin shook off his hand, pointed at Xi Yan angrily and said hatefully, "In the past, I only said that you were young and ignorant, so you would be confused and cause trouble for a while, but I didn't expect your heart to be so vicious!" If I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have tolerated you in the first place! ”
"Forehead......" Xiyan's tears swirled in his eyes, and he didn't dare to cry, so he had to sit on the ground helplessly.
Li Xuan glanced at Xiyan with a complicated expression, but still gritted his teeth, stepped forward to help her up, "Chunxue has admitted that this matter has nothing to do with Xiyan at all, Eniang, you-"
"Unrelated?" Lao Fujin gritted his teeth and said, "Without the master's instruction, she dares to raise the idea of murdering the prince's heir?" ”
"What ......" Xiyan looked at Li Xuan in a daze. What are they talking about!
Li Xuan's gaze fell on her red and swollen face, and he couldn't bear to open his eyes, "Ning Ruo had a miscarriage...... The doctor has just checked, and her medicine has been changed. ”
"Changed?!" She asked. A terrible thought suddenly flashed through my mind, "What did you change it to?" ”
"Elixir." Li Xuan looked at her and said word by word.
"How so?" Xiyan lost her voice and said, "This can't be—"
"You still want to quibble!" Lao Fujin hated it very much, "It's you who asked this prostitute to replace Ning Ruo's tonic medicine with Juezi's decoction, and now what are you pretending to be confused!" Old Fujin's eyes were piercing, "Just murdering the prince's concubine is already a capital crime, and you actually use such a vicious medicine to make Ning Ruo unable to get pregnant from now on...... Even if you have ten lives, it's not enough to pay! ”
"No, no, Eniang!" Only then did Xiyan understand the ins and outs of the matter, her mind was in chaos, and she hurriedly reached out to pull Chunxue, "Chunxue, you sue them, that medicine-"
"Yes!" Chunxue, who had been silent, suddenly replied heavily, "It's all done by slaves!" The medicine was also exchanged by slaves, and from beginning to end, Gege didn't know it! ”
Xiyan froze and looked at Chunxue incredulously.
"You're faithful! But you think I'm going to believe what you say? Old Fu Jin swept to Xi Yan with a poisonous gaze, "It's clear that your master saw that Fu Jin was pregnant and was resentful, so he instructed you to drug Fu Jin, isn't it?" ”
"No, Gege didn't support the slaves!" Chunxue cried and shook her head, "It's all the slave's own idea!" It was the slave maid who secretly changed Fujin's medicine while Liu'er was away, and all the mistakes were the fault of the slave maid alone! Seek the old fortune and wisdom! Ask the prince to learn clearly! ”
"Mingjian? Okay, I'll send you to the yamen now so that people can have a good understanding! Old Fujin said that he was going to call someone.
"E-niang!" Li Xuan took a step forward, "This matter can't be caused to the Criminal Department, otherwise Xiyan-"
"She did it herself!" Lao Fujin said sharply, "If I could have made such a determination, how could I have hurt Ning Ruo, your son, my grandson!" He saw that he would be born next summer, but he was beaten down because of this slut! ”
A trace of grief flashed on Li Xuan's face, but he quickly suppressed it. This matter must not be made public, otherwise no matter whether Xi Yan is found guilty or not guilty in the end, her reputation will be ruined!
"No matter what, I believe in Xiyan, and I will never hand her over." He almost tried his best to say these words, and after speaking, he said coldly to the maid behind him, "What are you doing there, why don't you hurry up and help Fujin back to the room to rest!" ”
Several handmaidens looked at each other, hesitated and were about to step forward, but they heard Lao Fujin shout, "I see who dares!" Then they all stopped where they were, not knowing what to do for a while.
"E-niang!"
"This matter must not be left like this," Lao Fujin did not give an inch, "Come on!" Send them both to the Yamen! ”
Li Xuan's eyes swept coldly over everyone, but still no one dared to move.
"My son dares to ask Eniang," he stared at Lao Fujin for a long time, and finally said slowly in a hoarse voice, "Now this Prince Rui's mansion ...... Who's in charge? ”
"You!" Lao Fujin was so angry that he trembled, "Are you a ghost who has lost his mind!" She killed your sister-in-law! That's a boy who has already formed! Your daughter-in-law is still lying unconscious in bed, but you still have to protect this slut?! ”
"E-niang!" Li Xuan was upset, and when he heard his mother mention the child, he was even more heartbroken. But he also knew that he couldn't back down now, and if he did, Xiyan would be finished. "You heard it just now, Xiyan doesn't know anything!"
"I don't know!" Lao Fujin's voice was higher, "If she didn't know, how could she arrange for this girl to go out of the house to do errands?" There are many people in the house, how strict is the entry and exit, what does she want to do with a personal girl of the side Fujin? She is clearly Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it! ”
