Xi Chao, who was talking with the carving master in the room, and the shopkeeper on the side naturally heard the movement outside, because Xi Chao's ears were good, and he sneered when he learned that it was Ouyang Yun who provoked for no reason. Raised her hand to stop the shopkeeper who wanted to go out to relieve the siege, only said that there would be no major incidents, she would handle it properly, she was not worried, there was Lu Yin and Lu Qin in need, she didn't need to come forward in person, if she couldn't even do this little thing, what was the use of staying by her side, and then she should not see Ouyang Yun now to avoid trouble, and motioned to the carving master to continue, sitting and waiting with peace of mind.

Outside, Ouyang Yun panicked when she saw the fate of the two little guys, her hands and feet were cold, her legs and stomach were trembling, she still remembered the act of gouging her eyes with green sound back then, although she had never seen it with her own eyes, it was imprinted in her heart like a maggot on the tarsal bones, and she always remembered nightmares.

"Miss." The voice was sharp and trembling, Yahuan was also scared at this moment, her eyes showed a look of horror, how could she still be arrogant and domineering before.

Everyone outside the door who was watching the show pointed at each other, all guessing that this Miss Xiangfu had offended a big man, and she was so ruthless.

"Miss, hurry back home." Only when he returned home was he safe, and the little guy hurriedly tugged on Ouyang Yun's robe sleeve twice and urged in a low voice.

Ouyang Yun suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, and hurriedly retreated to the door, his steps were slightly chaotic, obviously extremely frightened.

Lu Yin will not move Ouyang Yun again, after all, this person is still the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, although she is a concubine, it is not easy to do too much, and cause unnecessary trouble to the master.

There was a lot of movement here, and there were shops on the street and people passing by, which naturally attracted the officials who patrolled the streets, and the people who watched the show hurriedly dispersed at first sight, but they did not go far to wait to see what would happen next.

"What's going on?" The leader of the official with the knife pointed to the two little servants who fell to the ground unconscious and asked.

Ouyang Yun just arrived at the door and glanced at the two people on the ground, hurriedly turned their eyes and didn't dare to take another look, and saw the official with a knife asking aloud, somehow he actually got bold, stepped out of the door a few steps to the side of the officer, away from the two evil stars in the store.

"It was the two green-clothed pariahs in the store who killed Miss Ben's little maid and made disrespectful remarks." Ouyang Yun looked frightened and pitiful, and won the sympathy of many people.

When the official who opened his mouth heard this, he took a few steps forward and squatted down and stretched out his hand to probe the snorts of the two people who fell to the ground, in order to make sure that the young lady in front of him was right. couldn't help but sink his face, and dared to hurt people in broad daylight, there was no royal law, and handed a look to the officials around him and asked them to arrest the two green-clothed women in the store, and vowed to bring them back to the yamen for good interrogation.

There is no need for the servants to catch them, Lu Yin and Lu Qin couldn't stop the coldness in their eyes when they heard Ouyang Yun's words, and they walked out of the door and stared at Ouyang Yun directly.

"It was the two of you who killed this young lady?" The head of the yamen asked in a deep voice: "How can you wait for the grass to take people's lives, and obediently tie your hands and take the two of you back to the yamen to listen to it." ”

"Oh, joke!" Green Yin glanced at Ouyang Yun, who was hiding on the side and peeping, and said, "If you arrest people without asking questions, how can you say the king's law." ”

"Hugh wants to be strong, take it for me." The official ordered the men behind him to strike.

"Arrest these scoundrels." Ouyang Yun became more and more arrogant on the side of the servant, and he had long lost the scared appearance he had before.

"Miss Ouyang, if you dare to refer to the deer as a horse, the second miss has such a ability." Lu Yin's eyes looked at Ouyang Yun sharply, "These two people are dead or not, I think anyone with some eyesight can naturally see it, how can he say that he cares about human life." ”

The official was exposed to the facts, and he didn't dare to look at the woman in green with a slightly weak look in his eyes, but he still insisted: "That can't hurt people for no reason." ”

"This is a family matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I don't bother with the officials." Lu Yin has long seen what it means to fight with people, and it is not strange to avoid the important and light on the officials.

"What kind of family affairs, Hugh has to listen to her nonsense." Ouyang Yun thought about letting the official take action to arrest the two untouchables, but unexpectedly, Lu Yin's sharp teeth turned the matter on him.

"We are the personal maid of the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, just because the second lady did not ask the reason to rob the objects ordered by my young lady, and also used power to suppress people and speak ill of people, and let these two little guys move first, we had to fight back out of helplessness, and it is light that the slave who has no master is not dead. This is a housework, and it is better to be less careful. ”

Lu Yin's words were reasonable, and some people who favored Ouyang Yun gradually lost their voices, and they accused Diao Nu of bullying the master. The matter is said that there is no way to open the officials, so naturally there is no way to take down the people.

"Untouchables Hugh talk nonsense, you don't know your identity and you speak against it, and it's justified to kill someone." Ouyang Yun saw that things were shaken away, and there were so many pairs of eyes around him, he really lost face, and he became more and more brainless in his words, and he insisted that the people on the ground were dead, as long as he did the name of killing, the two untouchables in front of him would not want to leave safely.

"Even if she didn't say her identity, what is the reason for the second lady to rob other people's things and instigate Diao slaves to bully us." Lu Yin's words blocked Ouyang Yun without anything to say.

"The second lady has repeatedly said that she has killed someone, but you can know that slandering others for no reason is to be convicted." Green Yin admired Ouyang Yun's increasingly pale face and sneered in her heart.

As soon as the words came out, the heart of the servant sank, these words were obviously not only aimed at Ouyang Yun, but he didn't do anything too rude just now, and hurriedly gave the people around him a look and asked him to find a doctor. At first glance, it is a dispute in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is better for them not to interfere with this kind of small shrimp. After the doctor came and checked the two people who had passed out on the ground, he gave a clear result, and the leading official waved his hand and led the people away.

Everyone's eyes were bright, and after listening to the doctor's affirmative conclusion, there was no sympathy before, and Ouyang Yun's distorted face was even more believing, and they talked to each other.

"It's still the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, what's the reason for being so deceitful?" The disgruntled speak out to accuse.

"You are lonely and unheard, you are the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion and will marry into the Prince's Mansion as a side concubine, so naturally there is no one in your eyes." The person on the side answered on his behalf.

"Listening to what this girl said, her master is also the prime minister's daughter, I don't know who it is?" Most outsiders are not clear.

"You don't know this, but of course there is any other lady who is the daughter of the Prime Minister's family, that is, the lord of Zunyi County who was personally crowned by the saint two years ago."

"Speaking of which, is the county lord returning to Beijing?" Someone was suspicious.

"It's hard to say, you see that if the master is here, he won't be bullied by his half-daughter."

"That's right, it is estimated that the county lord sent someone back to report his safety, and he came by the way to get the things that were ordered, but he didn't want to have such an insulting thing, which is really eye-opening."

"Isn't it, this second lady is also a concubine, and she dares to be disrespectful to her daughter-in-law, and the world is declining."

"That's the misfortune of the family, and I don't know how the marriage of the eldest prince came about."

The unbearable words around her rushed into Ouyang Yun's ears, and the more she listened to it, the more unjust she felt in her heart, but she also knew that it was okay for her to make a big fuss, and a trace of uneasiness crossed her eyes, and she shrank her shoulders and stepped back, wanting to stay away from the sneering eyes around her.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the matter is clear, you are all gone." Green Yin spoke out to disperse the crowd of onlookers.

When everyone heard the words, they left one after another, no matter how much they said that it was related to the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was not easy to stay long.

The shrewd little guy slipped out as early as Ouyang Yun spoke, went to lead the carriage over, and when he saw that everyone was scattered, he immediately sent Ouyang Yun to the carriage and returned home.

This is the end of a farce, Lu Yin and Lu Qin looked at each other and smiled, and sent someone to send the two unconscious people at the door back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, as for treating the two of them, heh, it depends on how the Prime Minister's Mansion handles it, after all, the two are slaves in the Prime Minister's Mansion, they are not that kind. Turn around and enter the Duobao Pavilion.

They are not afraid of the consequences of the event, the Prime Minister's Mansion has lost face, and their master is not for the sake of a Prime Minister's Mansion to compromise and seek perfection. Ouyang Ye taught her daughter that there was no need to hide, pretending that nothing had happened, and the big thing turned into a small thing.

Ouyang Yun returned to the mansion with a pale face and went straight to Shui Yueju, the fear in his heart overflowed all over his body, how could he care about whether his clothes and appearance were rude.

"Mother!" Ouyang Yun broke into the door, and only then did she come to her senses after seeing Aunt Liu.

"What's the matter, it's like this." Aunt Liu frowned unhappily when she saw her daughter with her hair in a messy bun and disheveled, "Let the subordinates see the unity of the system." ”

"Mother!" Ouyang Yun sat on the ground on her knees, tears flowing out uncontrollably, and her face was still a little afraid.

"What's the matter, put it well, who bullied you?" When Aunt Liu saw her baby daughter like this, she was horrified and hurriedly got up to help her daughter who was crying like a tearful person on the ground.

"Mother." Ouyang Yunqing was unstable, hugging Aunt Liu's waist and crying bitterly.

"What's wrong, you're here to say!" Aunt Liu hurriedly said: "Didn't you say that you were going to see the jewelry, Yahuan, why didn't you come back with you?" ”

"She's back, she's back." Ouyang Yun couldn't take turns and said, "She's back." ”

Wang Ma saw that it was wrong and hurriedly went out to dismiss the Yahuan mother-in-law who was around, closed the door and asked, "What happened to Miss, Madame is here, what can't I tell Madame." ”

"Who's back, don't cry and say it." Aunt Liu moved Ouyang Yun's shoulders and looked directly at her frightened daughter.

"She, she." Ouyang Yun's previous pitiful expression suddenly became hideous, and he suddenly stood up, swept down a table of fruit plates and tea cups, and crackled and the porcelain shattered to the ground.

Aunt Liu was also startled when she saw this, why did her daughter become irritable again, and stepped forward to pull someone to her side and asked: "What happened, you tell your mother, who bullied you, don't be afraid, you are the future prince and concubine of the prime minister's daughter, no one dares to be disrespectful to you." ”

"What's the use, what's the use!" Ouyang Yun shouted frantically, "She's back, she's back." ”

"Who's back, you're going to say!" Aunt Liu was so anxious that she was about to get into the room.

"Who else." Ouyang Yun said viciously: "That slut is back!" ”

"What!" Aunt Liu was shocked when she heard this: "You saw it!" ”

"No, I saw the slut's personal maid." As soon as Ouyang Yun remembered what had happened just now, the evil fire that couldn't be stopped rushed upward.

"What did you do to be so scared?" Aunt Liu knows her daughter's temperament, her daughter's temper has been much better these days, how could she be scared like that if nothing happened.

"I, what can I do, those two sluts used that slut to bully me, and made me lose face in public." Ouyang Yun blamed all the faults on others, and only hated that she couldn't pick the skin of those two cheap maids.

As soon as Aunt Liu heard that she had the bottom in her heart, she no longer asked in detail, lest her daughter start a temper and it would be difficult to clean up, "Don't be angry with those two cheap slaves, how about being angry, and you will be the concubine of the eldest prince in a short time, even if that cheap girl is favored again, you have to salute and greet you when you see it." ”

Ouyang Yun was confused when she heard this, and her anger went down a lot: "The slut is coming back, so what's the matter?" In the past two years, she has become the only young lady in the prime minister's mansion, how can she be willing to let that slut come back to compete with her.

"I haven't heard your father mention the's return." Aunt Liu was suspicious in her heart, and persuaded: "You go back to the house and sleep well, and when your father comes back, I will ask, you should go to the palace to receive the banquet in a few days, but you can't have a little stubble, you can wait to get married with peace of mind, don't worry about the side affairs, and your mother knows in her heart not to make your father unhappy." If you have a mother's identity and can't enter the palace, you have to be careful, don't lose the face of the Prime Minister's house, you also have to be careful to flatter the mother of the eldest prince, and you must not be petty, that is the palace, let people find fault with it. ”

"Got it, mother." Ouyang Yun was indeed a little tired, turned around and walked out of the house to go back to his residence.

Aunt Liu's face sank instantly after watching her daughter go back: "Call Jingxiu to come in and reply, and those little guys will come over together." ”

Wang Ma called the person neatly, and when she came back, her face was slightly pale and said: "Madam, when I went out, only one of the three little servants has come back well, and the remaining two have passed out from their injuries." ”

Aunt Liu sighed in her heart when she heard this, and secretly said that it was her daughter who caused trouble outside, otherwise she wouldn't have cried like that after catching up with the two little girls.

"If something happens, tell the truth, if there is any concealment, take care of your skin." Aunt Liu lowered her face and stared at the maid who was kneeling on the ground.

"Miss today is going to Duobao Pavilion." The little girl was afraid that Yahuan would talk nonsense first, and she wouldn't be able to please herself in the end, but she didn't know that Yahuan hadn't recovered from the previous incident, and the whole person lowered her head and trembled and became afraid, how could she still answer Aunt Liu's question.

"The specific small ones are not very clear, I only know that the young lady quarreled with someone, let the little ones teach a lesson, and when the little ones went in, they saw the two green-clothed maids beside the county lord, and before the little ones stopped, the two little maids had been kicked out of the door and fell to the ground unconscious, and then attracted the official errand who patrolled the street, one of the two green-clothed maidservants stepped forward and said that it was a family matter for the official difference to interfere, and said that the young lady first forcibly seized the things set by the county lord early in the morning, and saw the official miss and insisted that the two green-clothed maidservants killed someone and asked the official to take it down." The little guy didn't dare to hide the slightest bit and replied to the truth.

Aunt Liu's heart fell to the bottom all of a sudden when she heard this, and she secretly hated her daughter for not being able to provoke the evil star, but fortunately, the evil star did not return to the house, otherwise the consequences would not only be about injuring the two little girls.

"Go down, don't spread the word about it." Aunt Liu gave a gag order, and tiredly pressed the swollen and painful forehead.

"Madam, I'm afraid that the little ones won't be able to hide it if they don't say it." Xiao Wu had to boldly explain again, "At that time, not only the official was present, but also many pedestrians on the street and the shopkeepers and customers in the surrounding shops, who gathered in a big circle, and finally the two green-clothed maids opened their mouths before everyone dispersed, otherwise Xiao Xiao would not have been able to bring the young lady back safely in the presence of so many people." ”

"What!" Aunt Liu was shocked all of a sudden, and secretly gritted her teeth This unconscious bastard thing, losing the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion, if this matter is spread to the palace, the consequences will ......

"Madame, ma'am." Mother Wang helped Aunt Liu, who was unsteady under her feet, to sit down again.

Aunt Liu waved her hand to let people retreat, the more she thought about it, the more headache she had, in a few days it would be the 50th birthday of the saint, how could such a thing be remedied, if it angered the saint, there was no hope for the marriage.

"Madame, there is still salvation." Wang Ma comforted: "There is still Xiangye." ”

Mother Wang reminded Aunt Liu, "Yes, there is still the master, the master, go, see when the master will return home." She wants to turn passivity into initiative, and she can't let her daughter's ignorance ruin the reputation of the prime minister's house, and she will not be ridiculed for her marriage.

"Madame, don't worry, it's still early." Wang's mother soothed: "Madame still keeps an eye on Miss, and she can't let Miss have any more stubble these days." ”

"Yes, yes." Aunt Liu calmed down and thought of how to tell the old man that she had to make good arrangements and no longer indulge her daughter, and her daughter's temper should be changed, so as not to let the nobles in the palace see the joke when she got it.

On the day Ouyang Ye returned home, he learned about what happened outside, he didn't know that it was impossible, it was spread outside, and he was angry in his heart, how could he have such a useless waste, and he felt uncomfortable all day long without looking for trouble, and strode back to the study to change into a court dress.

"Sir." Aunt Liu got the letter and immediately came to Ouyang Ye to discuss countermeasures, after all, her daughter's marriage is important.

"What's the matter?" Ouyang Ye had a calm face, and he didn't look at Liu's dedication.

Aunt Liu is very good at reading people's faces, and when she saw that something was wrong, she didn't immediately say anything about her daughter, but set up another topic: "Is the eldest lady coming back?" ”

Aunt Liu carefully observed Ouyang Ye's face at this time and said, "If you go back to the house, the concubine should prepare in advance." ”

Ouyang Ye understood as soon as he heard it, but he didn't know whether Ouyang Xichao would return to the house or not, so he said: "She can go back to the house whenever she wants, and if she does, she will send a letter in advance." "The potential means that if there is nothing else, Aunt Liu can go back.

"Yes." Aunt Liu retreated without pleasing interest, she could see that this was not the time to talk about things.

"Madam, what did Xiangye say?" Wang Ma said worriedly.

"According to the master's meaning, it should be sent home in advance." Aunt Liu wondered in her heart, since she didn't go back to the house to deliver the letter, why did she see those two personal maids, did she just come back to get things, so where did they live, whether it was outside the city or far away from Beijing.

"In that case, Madame should put half of her heart at ease." Wang Ma was also quite apprehensive when she thought that the evil star was coming back, "Xu accidentally bumped into it, how could she not come forward with her heart." ”

Aunt Liu nodded, believing it seven points, but since it happened, she was always uneasy in her heart.

"Don't mention this, Yun'er hasn't had time to tell the master in a hurry about the big trouble outside." Aunt Liu is afraid that things will develop in the bad direction.

"Madame, don't worry, Miss is also Xiangye's biological daughter, for the sake of Miss and the entire Xiangfu, Xiangye will also come up with a good way." Wang Ma is very confident in Xiangye.

"I hope so." Aunt Liu still couldn't completely put her mind at ease.

"Madam, the jewelry that Miss has entered the palace has not yet been selected." Wang Ma reminded: "There are also clothes and shoes." "It's just the end of the day.

"Hmm." Aunt Liu almost forgot such an important matter, and hurriedly called the maid ring in Ouyang Yun's room to come over and ask, if her daughter was resting, she had to go over and ask her daughter what style of jewelry she liked, but fortunately, she would be able to catch up in a few days.

Ouyang Yun saw Aunt Liu coming, and hurriedly sat up from the bed and said anxiously: "Mother, how is it, what did Dad say?" ”

"I heard what your father meant, I didn't receive the news that the cheap girl was returning home, maybe she came back to get something, and I was not in Shangjing." Aunt Liu said: "The most important thing now is the banquet in the palace in a few days, the matter has happened and there is no way to remedy it, it can only depend on how your father says, you must be careful when you enter the palace, don't be rash, you take Wang Ma with you, you have to listen to Wang Ma's words, don't be taken again, as for today's matter, if someone asks, there will be some quarrels that bite you don't know, don't let people say that you are disrespectful to your sister." ”

"Hmm." After this incident, Ouyang Yun learned to be obedient, the palace is no better than her own family, she is not the only one who said it, she will be careful and careful, and it will be a happy event for her to marry into the Great Prince's Mansion soon, and there can be no more incidents.

"The people in the palace will always stir up trouble, don't let those who have a heart take advantage of the loophole." Aunt Liu advised: "Don't mention the matter of that cheap girl, if someone asks about it, she only says that she is weak and still recuperating outside, so that she is suitable for sisters, and it will be difficult for others to say anything." She was afraid that her daughter would be impulsive and her marriage would be ruined, and her reputation would be ruined.

"Mother, I listen to you, I'll pay attention." Ouyang Yun nodded obediently.

"And your clothes and jewelry." Aunt Liu mentioned the matter, "The clothes and shoes have been sent to the best embroidery workshop to buy, the time is in a hurry, and you can only settle for it, as for the head of the jewelry, you like what head and face you like to pick it directly, and wait for tomorrow morning Niang will accompany you to buy it." ”

"Just do what my mother says." was disturbed by today's events, how could Ouyang Yun still have the heart to think about what she liked.

After the matter was decided, Aunt Liu let her daughter have a good rest, and she returned to the house to think about how to mention it to Ouyang Ye.

It was very late in the evening and Ouyang Ye didn't come over, Aunt Liu was in a hurry, the more things dragged on, the more difficult it was to speak, what should I do, I was so anxious that I went around the house.

Wang's mother sent Yahuan to ask where Xiangye was resting tonight, and prepared a supper to send over to show Aunt Liu's heart.

Ouyang Ye was busy with business, busy until late, and sneered in his heart when he heard that the Liu family had sent a supper, this time it was a hurry, why didn't his daughter stop her when she was in trouble, and she didn't even have a basic upbringing.

Ouyang Ye sent Yahuan back to tell the Liu family, he already knew about the matter, let the Liu family take care of his daughter, and the Liu family didn't need to ask about other things.

Yahuan brought the words back, Aunt Liu finally let go of her heart when she heard it, it seems that she avoided it this time, and the master didn't pursue it too much, so she can sleep peacefully.

Xi Chao, who returned to Fengyang Tower, took out the blood jade in the box to play with, but his eyes looked at the begonias that were blooming brightly in the courtyard, and recalled the matter of Duobao Pavilion in his mind, it seemed that Ouyang Yun was being pampered more and more unrestricted.

"Master, now that there is such a trouble, the prime minister will definitely inquire whether the master will return to Shangjing." Hongming poured a cup of tea and handed it over, "Do you want to go back to the house first?" ”

"Not necessarily." Xi Chao put down the blood jade in his hand and took a shallow sip of the teacup.

"There are also rumors outside that the two sisters of the Prime Minister's Mansion are not in agreement." Hong Ming made it clear what he heard outside, "This will not do the master much benefit." "Secretly blame the two greens for being too bold and daring to make things big in the blue sky and daylight.

"You want to say that it's not good for me at all, and it's bad reputation?" How could the Xi Dynasty not know the result after the accident.

"Let them go, it's not like I'm embarrassed." Xi Chao said casually: "What ability does she have for me to cover it up for her." "What's more, this matter is still somewhat helpful to the father, Ouyang Ye has held great power in the court for so many years, and there are countless civil officials and scholars following him, and if he doesn't deal with it, he is afraid that it will threaten the imperial power, although he is also upright, I am afraid that there is no one in those intertwined relationship networks who will use his hand to promote the movement of the court behind his back, which makes people have to guard against it.
