Chapter 468: Small Punishment
Marry later?! Zhao's eyes opened suddenly, and she looked at Cui Keyin in disbelief, did she dare not listen to the Queen Mother's words and ignore women's morality?
In this era, what will happen to women who do not allow their husbands to take concubines? Spit on the stars can drown her. Besides, the Queen Mother personally asked about this matter, how could she refuse? If she insists on refusing to accept Concubine Zhou Heng, jealousy is one of the seven outs, and she can be abolished. What's more, the Queen Mother obviously targeted her and put another charge of unfilial piety......
What woman can withstand these two? In ordinary people's families, if their daughter-in-law dares to do this, they will definitely be abandoned, and even if they go back to their parents' home, they can only shame their mother's family, and no mother's family is willing to accept such a daughter. What's more, she's the queen? Zhao decided to tell her husband to let him organize people to impeach Cui Keyin, and then let the Queen Mother come forward to abolish the queen. In this way, the daughter did not enter the palace as a beauty, but directly entered the palace.
Zhao's eyes changed from horror to fanaticism to joy, and his eyes that were cloudy like fish eyes suddenly became clear and bright.
Cui Keyin saw the change in her expression, and she knew her thoughts well. But Cui Keyin only smiled slightly, and said in a light tone: "The palace gate is about to be locked, you can go back." ”
just drove out the wife of a third-grade officer, and she didn't even want to say more euphemistic words, which shows that Cui Keyin is disgusted with her.
Lu Ying got up and said, "Mrs. Zhao, let's go." ”
She can speak well, if in the past, when Cui Keyin pretended to be stupid, she would naturally add the explanation warmly and thoughtfully. But now, Lu Ying felt that it was unnecessary. For people like Zhao, saying more would dirty her mouth.
Zhao's tone softened and said, "The concubine wants to see the little girl." ”
She wanted to ask Du Guoer, how did the Queen Mother treat her, and did she really mention to Cui Keyin about making her a beauty? And what about the emperor to her? Did she announce that she would meet and talk, and did she let the emperor's soul disappear?
Cui Keyin didn't say anything, it was Lu Ying who answered her, and she didn't smile and said: "Ling Ai is living well here, Madame doesn't need to worry about it." Please. ”
Zhao was helpless and looked at Cui Keyin deeply. I had no choice but to get up in the urging of the green light. When I walked to the gate of Anhua Palace, I saw a long guard of honor coming, and Zhou Heng came back.
Winter in the capital gets dark early, and the twilight is in the middle of the four. The Anhua Palace has been lit inside and out. A young man in a bright yellow suit with a long figure walked in. Under the candlelight, his long eyebrows are like ink, his lips are red like rouge, and his handsome face is as white as jade. Just one eye. Zhao couldn't take his eyes off and couldn't move. Such a teenager, what girl is not affectionate?
The palace people in the courtyard curtsied: "I've seen the emperor." ”
While Lu Ying bent her knees, she pulled the corner of Zhao's clothes, who was dumbfounded, and said, "Madam, see you." ”
Instead of reminding her not to lose her manners, it was better to see her extremely unhappy when she looked at Zhou Hengru looking at her son-in-law, so she quickly bowed her head and saluted.
Zhou Heng's eyes stopped on her face. Among the people who curtsied in a courtyard, the Zhao family standing straight was really conspicuous. He looked at the green glow and asked.
Lu Ying said: "Du Shilang's wife Zhao entered the palace to meet Niangniang. ”
It is not said that Cui Keyin announced that she entered the palace. Hung her out for almost another day.
Zhou Heng raised his eyebrows and said, "Du Qing's family? Why so rude? Huanxi, you go, pass on my message, Zhao's monarch lost his honor in front of him, and he couldn't match Du Qing as his wife, so Du Qing immediately divorced his wife and married another. ”
Huanxi was startled, opened his mouth, and only subconsciously responded after seeing the narrowness in Zhou Heng's eyes: "Obey." ”
Lu Ying was stunned. Your Majesty, when did you take care of other people's family affairs and let the minister divorce his wife? The palace people who bent their knees in a courtyard were dumbfounded, and today the emperor wantonly rewarded the meritorious ministers. Du Shilang was also rewarded and knighted for his merits. Although he is the lowest earl, he is a nobleman in the end. Titles are different from official positions, and titles can be hereditary. Why did the emperor, who was still in a good mood in the morning, ask Du Shilang to divorce his wife when he came back in the evening? Sure enough, the Sacred Heart is unfathomable.
Zhao is still thinking about how happy his beloved baby daughter will be when she gets this good son-in-law, and she is very distracted. I didn't realize that my marriage was in crisis.
After Zhou Heng finished speaking, he went into the warm pavilion.
Lu Ying's face immediately turned cold, and she called a ****-year-old Xiaogong person, pointed at Zhao and said, "Take her out." ”
Although the people of Xiaogong are young, they are clever, and they said coldly: "Hey, let's go." ”
In the warm pavilion, Cui Keyin welcomed Zhou Heng in, and asked him to bring warm water to him to clean his face and hands. Lu Ying came in and whispered in her ear.
Zhou Heng handed the towel in his hand to the palace people who were waiting, and said with a smile: "Isn't it just that I asked Du Qing to divorce his wife?" Do you still need to be sneaky? ”
This thing is like a strong wind blowing across the earth, and everyone in the palace of Anhua Palace knows about it. The reason why Cui Keyin didn't know was that Zhou Heng was here, no one dared to come in to learn his tongue, as long as he was out of Zhou Heng's sight, there would be a lot of people rushing to report.
Lu Ying knew Zhou Heng's temper, and she was not afraid, so she smiled and saluted: "The emperor forgives the sin, the slave and maid thought that this was a happy event, so she couldn't help herself, and she hurried to tell the mother." ”
Zhou Heng smiled: "You girl is getting more and more presumptuous, you will be fined for one month, go and get it." ”
For a female official like Lu Ying, naturally she doesn't have to rely on her money to live, and the punishment for a month's salary is not heavy. Zhou Heng did this, but it was just a small punishment and a big warning. The masters hate slaves and maids the most, and besides, Zhou Heng did this obviously to curry favor with Cui Keyin. He originally wanted to clean his hands and face and sit down to ask Cui Keyin for credit in person, but he didn't expect to be preempted by Lu Ying.
Lu Ying smiled and retreated.
When the palace people heard about Lu Ying's punishment, their hearts were slightly cold, and they became more and more cautious in doing things.
Cui Keyin waited for Zhou Heng to sit down, looked at him with a smile, and said, "Are you retaliating with a tooth for a tooth?" ”
Du Shilang forced him to take a concubine and interfered in his husband and wife life, so he forced Du Shilang to divorce his wife, so that he could experience the taste of being persecuted.
Zhou Heng looked at her with a smile, his eyes were as black as ink, as if there was a starlight flickering. She understood him, and it undoubtedly made him very happy.
The two looked at each other, and their bodies gradually clinged together.
After only three days back in Beijing, both of them felt an undercurrent surging. The spies even found that a small number of civil officials often gathered together in the darkness of night to discuss secretly. Zhou Heng naturally thought that these people were secretly discussing the usurpation of the throne.
However, he returned with a great victory, and it was very unwise for these people to choose this opportunity to rebel. How exactly he got back is still under investigation. Of course, there is no need to sue Cui Keyin about this, so as not to worry her.
After dinner, the palace people reported: "Niangniang, Miss Du has packed her clothes and come over." ”
Cui Keyin's faint voice came from the thick felt carpet: "Take her to the place." ”
but they refused to see her.
Du Guo'er listened to the hearty man's laughter coming from inside, her eyes showed yearning, she plucked the golden hairpin from her head and stuffed it into the hands of the palace people, and said in a low voice: "How can you not go in to meet the queen under the wings of the queen?" Please also ask my aunt to be accommodating. ”
The palace people glanced at her with disdain, and said, "The emperor is inside, how can Niangniang have time to see you?" Let's go. ”
He was there, and his voice was clear and pleasant, and it was so nice. Du Guo'er reluctantly walked up and followed the palace people. (To be continued.) )
