Because of Steward Qiao's glance, everyone present glanced at Zhou Zhiqing.
There is schadenfreude: yes, tell you to pretend, this time a realistic big mouth is slapped in your face, don't say favoritism to you, and he won't even give you a chance to ask.
There are also sympathetic ones. It can be said that he is a person who has served the prince, but now he has ended up in such a pitiful end.
Zhou Zhiqing was unmoved. She calculated in her heart that if Yan Zhenrui really settled the account on her head, she would have nothing to say. Monthly money or something, just fine, there is not much money horizontally and vertically, and she doesn't have any expenses.
Yan Zhenrui glared at Steward Qiao strangely and said, "What do you say?" ”
Steward Qiao calculated and said, "A total of fifteen plates, that is, ten taels of silver, and the monthly money for half a year is about the same." ”
Jin Ru proud. Steward Qiao is too kind, fifteen plates are only folded for ten taels of silver, why not fold more? Thinking of this, she raised her head and said, "Lord Wang, Qiao is in charge of personal affairs." ”
Steward Qiao was said to have a cold spine, looked back at Jinru, and said in his heart: Girl, you have to be forgiving and forgiving, you are still tender, I don't understand this reason.
Is Zhou Zhiqing a good one to mess with? She's the one who will repay her, and you caused her to lose ten taels of silver today, believe it or not, and she will make you vomit twenty taels next time?
Yan Zhenrui asked, "Oh? How much do you say is appropriate? ”
Seeing that Yan Zhenrui was so approachable, Jin Ru became a little bolder, and said, "Those plates are worth at least fifty taels." You have to be punished for three or five years. ”
Yan Zhenrui grinned, much like a smile. But in this case, there was really nothing to laugh at him, and Steward Qiao, who knew him, subconsciously stayed away from him.
Yan Zhenrui stroked his chin and asked Steward Qiao: "Then that's it, let's fine five years of monthly money." ”
Steward Qiao gritted his teeth and said, "Yes." "Xindao: Miss Zhou, it's not that I fell into the well, it's really the prince's golden words, I can't disobey, and I can't help it.
This world is like this, he is the king. He is the master. He made a judgment, even if he had to beat people dozens of boards, and the people below gritted their teeth and suffered pain, they had to kowtow and thank him.
Jinru's head slammed very loudly.
I was about to quit. Yan Zhenrui stopped Steward Qiao again: "That's right." What's her name? ”
Seeing Yan Zhenrui pointing at Jinru. Steward Qiao hurriedly said: "Ah, she, her name is Jinru." "Steward Joe is inexplicable. What's going on? Don't you look down on Jinru, this girl?
Not only him, but even Jinru couldn't help but think about it, straightening his chest and straightening it, with a little seductive shadow in his eyes.
Yan Zhenrui didn't even look at it, pointed at Jinru, and said to Qiao Steward: "How much can she have in her monthly money?" It's better to sell her, and it doesn't matter where she sells it, as long as she can sell it for fifty taels of silver. ”
……
Everyone was silent for a long time, Jin Rucai relieved herself, and she looked at Qiao in disbelief: "Qiao, Uncle Qiao, Wang, Wangye, just said?" ”
Things shouldn't be like this, didn't you say that Zhou Zhiqing would be punished for the month, how could it be that she sold herself for fifty taels of silver.
Steward Qiao was also a little stunned, it can be seen that Yan Zhenrui had already swaggered away, and Zhou Zhiqing didn't even have a superfluous expression, and he also gave away, what else didn't he understand.
He glanced at Jinru with a wry smile, shook his head and said: "This is a person who leaves a line, and it will be easy to meet in the future, as the old saying goes." ”
Who is to blame? It's no wonder that Jinru has bad intentions and harms people first. The harm is also harmful, and the people's hearts are insufficient, thinking about sending Zhou Zhiqing into the eighteenth layer of hell. What kind of grudge does Zhou Zhiqing have with her? Does she have to put people to death and then hurry?
The result? Harming others does not lead to harming oneself. If she hadn't been clever enough to raise the original ten taels of silver to fifty taels, I'm afraid she wouldn't be sold.
And so quietly it passed.
Everyone was a little confused about the prince's thoughts. To say that he forgot about Zhou Zhiqing? Not like that. Haven't you forgotten, shouldn't it be so far away?
Zhiqing is also strange this week, she doesn't seem to be nostalgic for the prince at all.
If you want to say that you are afraid of the prince, from top to bottom in this mansion, no one dares to say that you are not afraid of the prince, and only Zhou Zhiqing is left. Now that she doesn't need such a good advantage, what is she thinking?
But the two of them just left each other, you are far away from me, and I am far away from you, but if something really happens, no one dares to guarantee that the prince will blame who will protect whom.
Zhou Zhiqing didn't think so, she was very disdainful of the rumors relayed by Xianzhi: "The prince has always been fair, this matter is not a big deal, he knows the cause and effect as soon as he hears it, even if more people give Jinru perjury, it can't erase the fact that she deliberately wanted to frame me." ”
Xianzhi was half-convinced, and in the end he could only believe the conclusion that "the prince is a fair and selfless person".
It's the end of July in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Zhiqing can be called smooth, but I heard that his father Zhou Pin was sentenced to be beheaded at the end of September. She was really depressed for a whole day, and even Xianzhi knocked on the side, trying to comfort her.
Zhou Zhiqing didn't sleep all night that night, Xianzhi was also uneasy, and when she woke up several times in the middle of the night, she could see Zhou Zhiqing motionless on the small bed, with a pair of big eyes open in the dark night.
Strange oozing.
Xianzhi wanted to speak, but Zhou Zhiqing was motionless, like a piece of wood, although he didn't say anything, Zhou's body was full of the breath of "don't approach the living", and Xianzhi could only retreat.
She knew that everything she said at the moment was in vain. She couldn't help Zhou Zhiqing, she only said a few words of comfort and words like "condolences by the way", it was too pale and poor, it was better to be silent.
Coincidentally, the next day, Chu Meiyu came to meet Zhou Zhiqing after dinner: "I see you are lazy to move, these days are always sullen, boring, the moonlight is good today, why don't we go to the garden for a walk?" ”
What's the moonlight?
Zhou Zhiqing didn't want to go, but Xianzhi persuaded on the side: "Yes, Miss Zhou, you can't leave the yard lightly, and good people will be stuffy, so it's better to go with Miss Chu to breathe." ”
Chu Meiyu smiled and said, "You won't be afraid of being seen by the prince, right?" What the prince said at the beginning was all angry words, why don't you want to see you, the last time you had an accident, the prince gave the judgment to the public. ”
Zhou Zhiqing raised her eyes, her eyebrows were clear, black and white, colder than the ice cubes in the summer.
Xianzhi was afraid that Zhou Zhiqing would quarrel with Chu Meiyu because she was in a bad mood, and subconsciously stared at Zhou Zhiqing, for fear that she would be impulsive.
I didn't want Zhou Zhiqing to just look at Chu Meiyu for a few breaths, and then smiled: "Okay, I was also moved by what you said." ”
Chu Meiyu immediately became happy: "That's it, I'm really afraid that you will have the final say." What counts? When have you ever been like this? Zhou Xiaobawang is not the same as before......" she said and pulled Zhou Zhiqing's arm and dragged it out, and at the same time said to Xianzhi who was standing aside: "The two of us will come back after shopping at will, you just have to be busy with you, I will return all the beards and tails of your Zhou girl when I go back, you just have to put one hundred and twenty hearts." ”
Zhou Zhiqing also mentioned her old things in the past, Zhou Zhiqing teased her a lot to make fun, and today she even called out her former nickname.
Zhou Zhiqing also smiled and said, "If you don't say it, I don't recognize myself anymore, and I feel like I'm in another world." ”
The former wanton and willful, wild Zhou Zhiqing who was wild everywhere by his own temperament is indeed gone. She is now like a rat crossing the street, she only dares to shrink in her yard, because of Yan Zhenrui's words, she doesn't dare to go out to meet people.
If you have to live like this in the future, it's really boring. Anyway, why can't she breathe? Presumably she was not so unlucky, and she was caught by Yan Zhenrui when she went out like this occasionally.
Besides, why catch it? But then the punishment. She can't be lower anymore, so what about punishment? To make matters worse, it's just a little colder than before, and she can't stand it, and sooner or later she will be used to it.
Zhou Zhiqing was impatient, so she followed Chu Meiyu out half-pushing.
Xianzhi just smiled and instructed, "The two girls can come back early." Her affairs are fragmented and miscellaneous, and she really can't get away for a while, and Chu Meiyu can't see any harmful thoughts these days, and besides, in this palace, she is also relieved that the two of them will leave.
It's summer, and it's hot during the day and cool at night. Everywhere there are undefeated exotic flowers and plants all year round, and this pleasant breeze is indescribably comfortable.
Zhou Zhiqing smelled the fragrance of flowers in the night, looked at the hazy and beautiful scenery under the palace lights, and couldn't help sighing: "It's so beautiful." ”
Chu Meiyu smiled and teased: "You didn't come out when I called you just now, but now you know the beauty?" A beautiful day, a few more glasses of wine would be even better. ”
Zhou Zhiqing smiled at her and said: "You are so interested, but how can there be perfection in life, only walking in the garden, and with you as a beauty, I already feel that I have no regrets in this life." ”
Chu Meiyu chuckled and said, "You are so good, are you satisfied?" I don't believe it, what do you see it is? ”
There is a small and exquisite pavilion on the rockery in the distance, and the lanterns are hung high at this time, and there are faint figures shuttling. Zhou Zhiqing said puzzledly: "It's Wangyuan Pavilion, what?" ”
Chu Meiyu said with a smile: "This Wangyuan Pavilion is not the other Wangyuan Pavilion, go quickly, you will know what the difference is when you arrive." ”
The two quickened their pace, and after a while, they went up to the rockery, the pavilion was empty, but there was a table of exquisite side dishes on the stone table, and a pot of fragrant wine was placed, and two pairs of dishes and chopsticks were placed.
Chu Meiyu said: "Zhiqing, look, what do you want, does it count as a wish?" ”
Zhou Zhiqing let out a faint smile, and for a while this small pavilion was full of brilliance, and Chu Meiyu was also a little dazzling.
Zhou Zhiqing looked at Chu Meiyu and said: "All wishes come true, and you must have nobles to help, Meiyu, thank you." ”
Chu Meiyu concealed the inexplicable loss in her heart, and responded with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, I can't tell who is who's noble." Come, sit down, let's sing about wine tonight, and we won't go home if we don't get drunk. (To be continued......)
