Chapter 57: Punishment

In the early morning of the second day, as soon as the finch finished serving Lin Jue to wash, Hexiang brought breakfast and set a large table with all kinds of side dishes.

Lin Jue glanced at her without a trace.

Hexiang was born very beautiful, Lin Jue was able to pick her at the beginning, a large part of it was also because of this reason, there were ink paintings earlier, but now the ink paintings are gone, and the finch is completely childlike, leaving Hexiang alone slim. And in recent days, she didn't use powder, but she began to apply some fat powder to her face, and wore a fashionable embroidered skirt, which made her even more beautiful, with thin shoulders and waist

"Miss ......", Hexiang, who was giving Lin Jue cloth vegetables, said softly, "Just now the maid Chunmei next to the second lady said that she couldn't finish the embroidery work in her hands, and wanted the slave maid to go over and help ......."

Lin Jue was drinking soup, and when he heard this, the soup spoon in his hand gently knocked the edge of the bowl, and raised his head slightly, "Do you want to go?" ”

"The slave maid doesn't dare!", Hexiang hurriedly lowered her head when she heard this, "It's just that Chunmei has always been good friends with the slave maid, if you don't help her, it's a little unreasonable......"

"Since you can't shirk it, then you can go", Lin Jue smiled slightly, "It's just that you go to another yard, you have to be more cautious in doing things, if you get into trouble, I can't help you."

When Hexiang saw that Lin Jue agreed, she twisted her waist with joy, and even forgot about helping her with the dishes.

Que'er watched from the side, and suddenly frowned, "Miss, we and the second room have never moved, why doesn't this lotus fragrance have any eyesight, but still run to help?" ”

Even if the old lady only disposed of the ink painting, there was definitely something wrong with this lotus incense. She was inexplicably sent to the firewood room to help a while ago, and the young lady was suddenly poisoned, even if it wasn't the ghost of this lotus fragrance, it couldn't be separated from her!

"People want to help, how can we refute her intentions?" , Lin Jue smiled, picked up a piece of Gusu sauce duck and put it in her mouth, since the last poisoning, she has done all three meals a day, but today's sauce duck doesn't seem to be done, it's too fatty.

Hexiang went to the second room to help, but she was nowhere to be seen for several days.

The finch gritted her teeth angrily, but Lin Jue didn't say anything, just looked at her book intently, completely ignoring the traces of Hexiang.

"Lin Er, why are you still at home? Let's go out for a walk......"

The ninth princess broke in in a hurry, and it seemed that there was still a dog day heat wave on her body.

"It's so hot......

Lin Jue raised his eyes and retracted his head back into the room again.

"Lin Er, I'm really going to be angry with you, I've long asked you to be my companion, you don't, now my father has got a Situ Yan to accompany me, this day, I really can't go on."

The ninth princess said, found a comfortable position to sit down, took the tea offered by the bird, and took a big sip before feeling relieved.

"You know what? During these days, my royal brothers came over almost every day, and every time they came, they found a bunch of reasons, thinking that I didn't know that these people were coming to Situ Yan on purpose. A lot of people in a mess, I get annoyed when I see it! ”

"Ah Jiu, don't say that, I believe Sister Yan'er is probably helpless too......", Lin Jue smiled. Situ Yan is ambitious, but she is not greedy, and now that the throne is undecided, she is probably still making a choice, right?

"She's helpless? I'll tell you......"

In the face of the Nine Princesses' infinite complaints, Lin Jue listened quietly, and interjected a few sentences from time to time, in fact, she felt that Situ Yan was a little like herself in her previous life in some aspects.

"That's it, I'll tell you something interesting, haven't you heard, the Northwest victory. A young general infiltrated alone, annihilated the red-haired leader in one fell swoop, and then pursued the victory, not only recovering the city in the northwest, but also attacking the Rakshasa country, expanding our northwest border a lot......"

Before the ninth princess finished speaking, her arm was grabbed by Lin Jue, "What is the name of that young general?" When will the team return to Beijing? ”

Looking at Lin Jue, who was sitting stiffly in an instant, the Ninth Princess couldn't help laughing, "I also heard about it, how do I know what the general's name is, but if I go back to Beijing, I heard my father say that the Guanbei camp has already set off from the northwest." ”

"That's ......", Lin Jue thought thoughtfully.

"Huh? Good and dignified, why do you care so much about the war in the Northwest, shouldn't there be your lover in it? The ninth princess looked at her and teased.

Lin Jue glared at her fiercely.

What lover?

Does she care about the war on the lower frontier?

The two were chatting casually, when suddenly Finch's face panicked and ran in.

"Miss, young lady, please come over."

Seeing that Lin Jue had blame in her eyes, Qi'er was instantly aggrieved, it was really not that she couldn't change her panicked temperament, but the old lady didn't have a good thing to let Miss go over every time, she was really a little scared.

"Did you say anything?"

Lin Jue got up from the soft couch and asked casually.

"The old lady didn't say anything, but when the slave came in, she heard a few mothers-in-law talking, as if the second lady found lotus incense in the second master's house this morning, and the two of them were still ...... naked," the finch said back, blushing.

Lin Jue was stunned, it turned out to be this thing.

But when this kind of thing happened, he called her over, did he want to accuse her of not managing the maid effectively?

But with her second aunt's means, is it too late for this old lady to speak now, presumably the second room has already been in a mess, right?

"Uh, Lin Er, since it's a housework, I'd better go first, right?"

The ninth princess also realized something in an instant, and thought that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, so she planned to leave.

"Ah Jiu, don't you want to go and see the excitement?"

Lin Jue Waner.

"......"

"Let's go."

Flower Hall.

Hexiang bowed his head and knelt, the second old man sat on the side with a black face, Mei's face was full of tears, and he was standing beside the old lady silently holding a handkerchief to wipe his tears. Lin Lang and Lin Ke stood beside them, their eyes staring at Hexiang who was kneeling on the ground, as if they wanted to eat her alive.

Lin Jue and the Ninth Princess walked in one after the other, and when Mrs. Lin saw the Ninth Princess, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, although she blamed her for not knowing etiquette and handling family affairs, she didn't know how to avoid it, but she still got up on her face and blessed her.

"Second girl, this lotus fragrance is your maid?"

The old lady spoke.

She originally planned to scold more harshly, but because of the presence of the ninth princess, she changed her tone to a soothing tone.

"Grandmother, Hexiang used to be my maid, but now it's not." , Lin Jue smiled, "Isn't she already the second uncle's person?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Mei on the side cried even louder.

"Second girl, how can you, a junior, talk like this?" , the old lady is angry, but because the ninth princess is there, it is not good to attack too much.

"Since grandmother said so, then this lotus fragrance can be regarded as my maid", Lin Jue unexpectedly did not argue anymore, "However, since it is my maid who has done such an unbearable thing, then I have to deal with it well!" ”

As she spoke, without waiting for the old lady to speak, she turned around and spoke to a few girls, "Come on, Hexiang misbehaved and made such a big mistake, take her down and beat her to deathβ€”β€”"

Hexiang's little face turned pale with fright, and she couldn't even make a voice begging for mercy.
