321 Monkey in the Tree
The detention of the Cui family's father and son still caused a sensation to many people inside and outside the capital.
The Cui family is a hairpin family, and several generations of the Cui family have been disciplined, because of their good popularity and steady behavior, they have also been deeply favored for many years. Suddenly, there was such a big thing, some people regretted it, some people pleaded, and some people guessed that the Cui family was about to collapse.
Dali Temple did not come to two days before and after the trial, not only because the evidence is sufficient, but also because Cui Jian understood the situation and took the initiative to explain.
When the file was handed over to the Qianqing Palace, Song Che came back, and before the emperor could speak, he proposed to bring the Cui family father and son to justice, and it was best to beat him to death with sticks, because they not only sent him out of the city, but also alarmed his daughter-in-law and had to go out to rescue Xu Yong with a big belly, and he actually wanted to get the silver back, thinking beautifully! Not a penny can be given to them!
But before he finished speaking, he asked the emperor to drive him out.
According to what he said, then the people in this court have to change every three years, is the emperor like this? As far as his city is concerned, he only deserves to be forced to sleep in the study by Xu Ying.
Song Che returned to the palace in a huff, feeling very ashamed that he didn't help Xu Ying, but fortunately, Xu Ying comforted her with kind words, and touched her belly that had grown up again without seeing her for a few days, and the clouds in her heart quickly blew away.
He is really lucky, if he is replaced by other ladies, he may not be able to make the city full of wind and rain when he encounters this kind of thing, his daughter-in-law is amazing, and she will get things done without making a sound, and she will not be hurt at all.
He slapped the table with Prince Duan, even if there was a big thing, before Xu Ying gave birth to a child, he wouldn't go out!
Originally, he wanted to go directly to the military department, but thinking about it, it seemed that he didn't pay attention to his own errands, so he compromised and found Prince Duan.
Of course, Prince Duan didn't have a good attitude towards him, but when he went out with his front foot, he went to the military department with Wu Yunxiu on his back foot.
The Cui family mourned here for several days.
Mrs. Cui fell ill, and the thing she was most worried about finally came, although Feng Qingqiu came to serve the medicine in the morning and evening, it was basically just a numb feeding of medicine, and the rest of the time was taken over by Sister Cui Jingfang. She also ignores housework. As if this wasn't her home at all, and she was just a ghost.
Mrs. Feng sent Grandma Feng a few times, and also took her back to her parents' house for a round, but in the end, she couldn't stand their excessive concern and came back.
There are also two young masters at home. One is Cui Wei, and the other is a minor, Cui Wei and Xu Bing have been to Xu's mansion, and Xu Shaoze has been forced to inquire about the news for them these days, but more of them can't. Cui Jian provoked Xu Ying, and Xu Ying was the person he was about to stammer, and Xu Yong was his own nephew, what position did he have to intercede for the Cui family?
Cui Wei trembled every day, although no one in the yamen looked at him so quickly, but the pity in their eyes really made people sweat on the back of their necks, and he never thought that one day he would become a pitiful worm in the eyes of outsiders - if Cui Wei was convicted of opening a silver mine privately, then he would also be beheaded.
Not to mention Xu Bing.
She knew that Xu Shaoze would not care about her, she was going crazy, if she was convicted according to the law. Then the men of the Cui family are going to die, and these female dependents will have to be sent to be slaves or even official prostitutes!
Thinking of having such a day in the future, she couldn't help but hug Cui Wei and cry bitterly, compared to being a mother to others, and being ridden by thousands of people, she suddenly felt that she was able to marry Cui Wei, a concubine, and how happy it was to be a young grandmother in a family with a not so thick background!
Cui Wei had never seen her so attached to herself, but she was also a little sincere, and hugged her with red eyes until dawn.
The panic of the Cui family in the past few days is not to be mentioned, especially when the emperor received the confession of the Cui family's father and son, he turned his face back on the case, and never mentioned this matter after that. It's even more inscrutable.
Marquis Zhongwu and Feng Yuzhang have been running for the Cui family for the past few days.
When Xu Ying was smelling the fragrance under the osmanthus tree and waiting to give birth, Mrs. Feng took Grandma Feng to the palace.
Xu Ying thought about it slowly, and then waved awkwardly to let them in.
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law arrived, they lifted their skirts and trembled and were about to give her a big salute.
Su Jin, how clever they are. Only then did they bend their knees and stand up.
"Mrs. Feng is an elder, and I have a child in my belly, so I'm afraid he won't be able to bear such a big gift." Xu Ying looked at them with a smile and said.
Mrs. Feng was still holding on, but Grandma Feng couldn't help but kneel down and cry bitterly: "I beg the princess to raise her noble hand and let me Qiu'er live!" I have only given birth to her and her brother in my life, and if she is sent as a slave or an official prostitute, then I will have no face to live in the world as a mother! Sister Qiu was afraid that she was rude to the princess in the past. For my sake, please spare her! β
Mrs. Feng also looked at Xu Ying with a silk tightening, I am afraid it is the first time in her life for her to come to ask for someone.
Xu Ying said with a pleasant face: "I'm really sorry, it's really inconvenient for me to interfere in this kind of thing." How to punish depends on the emperor's intentions, if we can influence and follow the things that the Cui family did, then the emperor's verdict in the future will not also be suspected of being targeted by my palace's interference? ββWhat kind of tea does Madame like to drink? I'll have people come over. β
Mrs. Feng leaned forward and begged slightly: "Strictly speaking, our Feng family is also responsible for this matter, if it wasn't for us targeting the Cui family, Cui Jian would not have taken the risk, the princess or help to consider it, whether our Feng family can also make a difference for the Cui family, don't ask the princess to intercede, just ask the princess to give a show." β
Xu Ying shook her head.
Mrs. Feng's face darkened.
Grandma Feng sat down on the ground, her eyes full of collapse.
The osmanthus flowers fell on the clothes with the wind, the sun hid half of its face into the clouds, and the season quietly entered autumn.
"Then, then I will ask the princess for one last thing." After a long time, Grandma Feng lifted her pale face, trembled like a flower in the wind, and said, "If Qiu'er is really sentenced to slavery one day, please allow me to buy her back to the Feng family!" I beg you, I know you can do it, I beg you! β
She cried hysterically and threw herself down in front of her.
Xu Ying sighed deeply, scooped her up with one hand and said, "Wait a little longer." Maybe the emperor will have other ideas? She crossed her shoulder and looked quietly at Madame Feng.
Mrs. Feng's brows moved, she opened her lips and wanted to say something, but she stood up and reached out to pick up Grandma Feng.
"The princess is waiting to give birth, and it's enough for us to bother for so long."
She is a seasoned person, she can hear Xu Ying's words, she has watched her make a few moves, she knows how powerful this woman is, and she also knows that it is quite rare for her to leak this point in front of them.
