Chapter 169: Mama is talented
Mama Le didn't seem to see him, walked directly in front of Qing Jin, and said sharply to Qing Jin: "Concubine Gu, why are you here?" β
"Of course, it's the daily routine of my Liuyun Academy, isn't Mama Le?" Qing Jin ignored Mama Le's harsh words, and asked Mama Le casually.
Hearing Qing Jin's casual tone, Mama Le frowned and looked over, a little dissatisfied with Qing Jin's evasion of her question, and deliberately increased her volume a little: "Concubine Gu, the old slave is telling you seriously, please don't joke with the old slave." β
Maybe it was Mama Le's sudden loud voice, and there was a sudden silence around her.
"Le...... Mama Le, you haven't saluted our concubine yet! Ping'er, who had been hiding subconsciously since Mama Le appeared, just poked her head out with a shrunk head, as if she whispered to Mama Le.
The sound was not loud, but because of the silence around it, it was clearly heard by everyone.
"It's the old slave who is rude, the old slave asks Concubine Gu to say goodbye, but I also ask Concubine Gu to answer the old slave, why do you appear here at this time?" Jiang, sure enough, it is worthy of being old and spicy, after Ping'er deliberately pointed it out, Mama Le not only did not feel embarrassed at all, but reacted quickly, and after saluting Qing Jin in a proper manner, she questioned Qing Jin again mercilessly.
"Is Mama Le questioning me?" Who gave you the right Qing Jin smiled and met Mama Shangle's face.
Mama Le was dumbfounded, and was a little speechless for a while, and the prime minister was a seven-rank official in front of the door. The personal grandmothers and big girls around the major masters have always represented their respective masters when they are external. This has become a default in the eyes of everyone, but I didn't expect this Concubine Gu to ask her such a thing, is she really not aware or pretending to be stupid?
Thinking like this, Mama Le looked at Qing Jin's eyes, trying to find something in the other party's eyes, but the other party's eyes were calm, as if what she said was what she was really puzzled about at this time.
Mama Le couldn't help but feel a little depressed in her heart. Because she has seen that the other party is really asking her, and in the rules of etiquette. She really didn't have the right to question the side concubine, even if she secretly boasted of being superior, she still couldn't change the fact that Qing Jin was the master and she was just a servant. Even if she, a servant, has a higher relationship with her master than most people in the palace. She's still a servant.
Looking at the eyes that had been faintly swept around, Mama Le was ashamed in her heart, but after all, she was the personal grandmother next to the princess, and she had been a woman in the back house for half her life, no matter how turbulent her heart was, she was not panicked on her face, and bowed her head to Qing Jin decisively: "What Concubine Gu taught me is that the old slave is in a hurry." I offended Concubine Gu, and I ask Concubine Gu to forgive me......"
Qing Jin looked at Mama Le, who was over half a hundred years old, and immediately lowered her head after her words.
As early as the moment when Mama Le happened to appear. Qing Jin knew that today's things were very difficult, so she would grab a handle and attack Mama Le, the bet was that Mama Le couldn't let go, but she didn't expect Mama Le, who had been in the back house for half her life, to be so light and apologize to her.
She really still underestimated this princess's personal grandmother, if she held on to it at this time, it would be obvious that she was a little unforgiving, and Mama Le had already bowed her head and asked for sin, so it was estimated that the next thing would be justified in attacking her.
ββ¦β¦ Although the slave is just a slave, she also understands that the country has national laws, the family has family rules, and there is no rule and there is no square circle, if the people above issue orders, the people below cannot abide by them, or the yang and yin violate the ......" Speaking of this, he deliberately glanced up at Qing Jin and continued: "...... So if the orders above and the people below do not implement them, the servants do not obey the words of the master, the decrees are not recognized, and the punishment becomes an ornament, then the country will definitely not be a country, and the family will not be a family, Gu Side Concubine, what do you think? β
"Mama is really insightful, and these words are also angry and righteous, deafening, and really shocking people's hearts!" Qing Jin's pertinent evaluation, who especially said that the ancients were stupid, look, an old lady in the backyard can say the words of the ruler, and those who think that the ancients are stupid are the real fools.
Mama Le, who was a little proud of herself for being able to say such a thing in her heart, heard Qing Jin's approval with a look of amazement, although she said these words just to put a big hat on the woman in front of her, but the other party was so cooperative, which suddenly made Mama Le's heart feel a little weird out of place.
"Does Concubine Gu really think what the old slave said makes sense?" The strange feeling of abnormality prompted Mama Le to speak again to confirm.
"Of course, it's not just reasonable, it's simply deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but it's a pity." Qing Jin suddenly changed her tone and shook her head with a sigh at Mama Le.
"What a pity?" Qing Jin's sudden change of attitude made Mama Le a little confused, and subconsciously asked.
"Mama has great talent and talent for governing the world, but it is a pity to be a personal grandmother by the side of the princess!" Qing Jin spoke in a regretful tone.
"Concubine Gu, you ......" Mama Le couldn't wait to bite off her tongue, knowing that she shouldn't have asked just now, but looking at the other party's regretful expression, the ghost made her mouth speak, she must have been bewitched just now, and she must have sued Princess SΓΉ that this Concubine Gu is a demon.
Qing Jin felt that she had been wronged, she really felt so in her heart, and she definitely didn't mean to joke!
"Concubine Gu, as far as the old slave knows, you should still be grounded now, but you appear here, you still go to the princess's courtyard with the old slave, and in front of the princess, tell me why you are being grounded in the housekeeper, right?" Mama Le looked at her nose and nose, and said to Qing Jin straightforwardly.
"Since Mama said so, then bring him with you, it just so happens that I can also explain to the princess seriously." Qing Jin pointed to the white butler next to him and said to Mama Le.
Seeing the white steward that Qing Jin was referring to, Mama Le was a little disapproving.
"What? Don't Mama Le agree? Then I'll continue to confine Liuyun Courtyard......" Qing Jin turned around and was about to leave without Mama Le's refusal.
"Concubine Gu, please stop, since you want to bring the white steward, then the white steward, you can go to the princess's courtyard with you!" After speaking, he took the lead and walked back towards the main courtyard.
After sitting quietly on the top and listening to Mama Le's statement, Murong Shi solemnly turned his head to look in the direction of Qing Jin, and asked Qing Jin in a fair manner: "Concubine Gu, can you explain to the palace, why did you appear in the steward when you were still grounded by the concubine?" β
Qing Jin was now completely sure that this was a trap for her, she leaned back in her chair, lowered her head, and fiddled with her fingers, as if she hadn't heard Murong Clan's question, the corners of her mouth had a mocking arc, she wanted to see what Murong Clan was going to do with her today.
"Okay, since Concubine Gu has nothing to explain, then the palace has to ask Concubine Gu, Concubine Gu knew that she was grounded, but ran out regardless of it, is Concubine Gu dissatisfied with Concubine Gu, or Concubine Gu didn't put Concubine Gu in her eyes at all?" Facing Qing Jin's silence, Murong clan's eyes buckled his big hat without blinking, disrespecting the housewife, contemptuous of the royal family, and committing such a crime, even if it is a side concubine with a title, if it is confirmed, her life will be guaranteed, and the light one will be deprived of her title and revoke the identity of the side concubine.
"The princess is serious, such a big crime, how dare Qing Jin bear it, the princess asked above, Qing Jin really has nothing to explain, as for why Qing Jin appeared in the palace office, I thought the princess should be clear, why is the princess not clear?" She didn't come to make soft persimmons for people to pinch at will, since Murong wanted to bite her, she had to be prepared to be cut out by her.
"What does Concubine Gu mean by this?" Murong Clan's original expression heard Qing Jin's words, and instantly became gloomy, and he looked at Qing Jin unkindly and asked sharply.
Facing the angry eyebrows of the princess Murong clan, Qing Jin looked as usual, looked at the white steward who had shrunk aside from the entrance to the door, and said with a smile: "Bai steward, can you answer the princess's question for me?" β
The white steward who was specially named finally understood at this time, he seemed to be involved in a battle between the rights and wrongs of the superiors, the gods fought, and the mortals suffered, he smiled a little bitterly, if he can change into a species, the kind of back shell, and live for a thousand years, ten thousand years, maybe he can know that later generations have a famous saying when they encounter him in this situation: Ma Ma, the earth is so dangerous, take me back to Mars!
It's a pity that he doesn't know it now, so he can only make a bitter face: "Concubine Gu, you are laughing......"
Qing Jin didn't look at him again, no matter who set up this bureau, this white steward would definitely not be innocent.
"Steward Bai, since Concubine Gu asked you to come, you can tell the palace what is going on!" In order to show that she was impartial and selfless, Murong glanced sharply at the white steward.
"Princess, slave ......" The white butler began to break out in a cold sweat, what did he say?
"Why, even a slave dares to disobey the palace, since Concubine Gu said that you know, then the palace believes that Concubine Gu will definitely not be wronged......"
Hearing the princess's words, the white steward was heartbroken, and cried to the princess: "The princess is clear, the villain doesn't know why Concubine Gu said this, the villain really doesn't know where Concubine Gu offended Concubine Gu...... By the way, I heard that Concubine Gu has always liked the Mandarin Duck girl who served her, is she worried about the Mandarin Duck girl, so she doesn't care about grounding......
"White steward, you don't want to spew blood, obviously you deduct our Liuyun Courtyard for no reason, I have repeatedly gone to ask for it, you have pushed back and forth, the weather has been cold for the past two days, and the share that was finally received before can only be maintained until today, the charcoal tray in our master's room has no temperature, you dare to say that you are not under anyone's order to deliberately ......" instantly understood the sinister intentions of the white steward, the mandarin duck was furious, and pointed out that there were people behind the white steward who were embarrassed. (To be continued......)
