Chapter Forty-Six: Showing the Horse's Feet

Rong Ruizhang has been sick for a few days in a row, and Yun Niang wanted to see him several times, but she was coaxed out by her subordinates, so the little bit of Rong Ruizhang's handle in her hand didn't work.

"I want to see Xiangye!" Yun Niang stood at the door of the Xiangfu and refused to leave, but the little girl in the Xiangfu is too lazy to take care of her now, who doesn't know that she was directly swept out of the house by Yuxianglou's mother a while ago? In the past, all the magnates in the capital who said they wanted to marry her shut up, and those gentlemen who were less than half a bucket swaying were willing to find an inn for her to live in.

Even if she chooses to arrange a courtyard, she refuses, after all, who wants to be like Rong Ruizhang and get a 'good name' of raising prostitutes as concubines?

Yun Niang has been down-and-out for the past few days, and there are obscene men who come to her inn every night to harass her, and several times in the middle of the night she has been drunk and pounced on her bed, although she is a prostitute, she can consider herself noble, how can she obey?

A lot of chickens and dogs jumped, and even people with luggage were thrown out of the inn, and now she can only live in those dilapidated inns, and she has to bear the light picks of men day and night, even those women, who dare to come to the door to scold the street, so that she has no face!

After tossing and turning several inns like this, Yun Niang couldn't bear it anymore, begging to go to the Guogong Mansion, Rong Che didn't know when she had already gone out, she knew that only when she completed the task assigned by Rong Che would Rong Che help her again.

"Since I can't see Xiangye, then I want to see the old lady."

Yun Niang looked at the more and more onlookers around her, and knew in her heart that she could only break the jar and gamble. The handle in her hand. It was enough to make Mrs. Zhang's reputation ruined, and she didn't believe that Mrs. Zhang dared not to be moved.

Perhaps, she can also take the opportunity to directly let Mrs. Zhang take Wei Qingqing's life!

"The old lady doesn't have time to see a prostitute who rides thousands of pillows." The mother-in-law who was eating melon seeds with Erlang's legs crossed sneered, staring at Yun Niang, whose clothes were low to her chest, turned her head and said to the other mothers-in-law: "Look, this woman is shameless, and she dares to do that dirty thing in broad daylight?" Thanks to the fact that we are a few women, otherwise wouldn't this big day's day be hooked by her white * flower breasts and flesh? ”

The mothers-in-law burst out laughing. Onlookers also scrambled to look at Yun Niang's clothes.

Yun Niang felt so ashamed for the first time, so she hurriedly covered her hand and darkened her face: "No matter how lowly a prostitute is, it's better than you old skins, do you men still touch you when they go home, I'm afraid I feel disgusting when I look at it!" Go and tell you the old lady, I know the whole truth about the fire that burned your lady in the first place, and if she doesn't see me, I will have to tell the truth in broad daylight......"

Before Yun Niang finished speaking, the mother-in-law who had just eaten melon seeds jumped up like a painful foot and slapped Yun Niang twice.

Yun Niang was stunned: "What are you doing?" ”

"What to do? I'm teaching you such a cheap and shameless thing for the women of the world, thinking that it would be great to have a body of flesh and skin that can hook a man? You morally corrupt things, even if you go to hell, no one will accept it! ”

Scolding and scolding, Yun Niang felt a chill in front of her, accompanied by the screams around her and the men's gasps, she saw the fragments of her own clothes in her mother-in-law's hands and the smug and disdainful smile.

Yun Niang hurriedly covered her chest, staring at this woman with red eyes, sooner or later, she would kill this old skin!

"It's all gone, the old lady said. Be forgiving and forgiving. ”

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Mama Qin walking out of the gate.

Seeing the celebrity beside Mrs. Zhang, the mothers-in-law in the concierge immediately became respectful, and Yun Niang also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that someone must have secretly sent a letter to Mrs. Zhang.

But Mama Qin's eyes when she looked at her were not ordinary cold.

Yun Niang chuckled in her heart, and suddenly remembered a sentence that Wei Qingqing had taught her when she pulled her out of the sludge pit: "No matter when, you can't force a vicious person to a dead end."

Didn't the cruel words he released just now force Mrs. Zhang, a vicious person, to a dead end?

Yun Niang subconsciously took a step back: "No, I'll wait for the prime minister to wake up before going in." She grabbed Rong Ruizhang's handle, Rong Ruizhang would not dare to do anything to her.

But this can't help Yun Niang.

Mama Qin coldly glanced at the mother-in-law who had just passed: "The old lady is a reasonable person, if Miss Yun has something to say, let's say it as soon as possible." ”

Yun Niang turned her head to run, but Fang Cai's mother-in-law clamped her arm and dragged her into the house.

Behind the crowd, Huang Ying quietly looked at Yun Niang's desperate eyes, turned around and left, but as soon as he turned around, he saw an acquaintance.

"The big shopkeeper?"

In the quiet alley, Huang Ying looked at Helian Zifeng, who was sitting in the carriage and could only vaguely see his figure, and wondered why he came back and the master also sent him a letter, but he hadn't gone to the master to restore his life, didn't he believe it?

Thinking of this, Huang Ying wanted to explain, but for the first time, he heard Helian Zifeng speak: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

Huang Ying was surprised, listening to this hoarse voice that didn't look like a human voice, hesitated, and still said: "Since the big shopkeeper recognizes the master, why not ......?"

Before he finished speaking, Huang Ying heard the sound of sharp weapons entering the flesh.

Huang Ying's eyes widened, and when he lowered his head, he saw the long sword that ran directly through his abdomen from his back, the cold tip of the sword, and the blood beads were dripping down one by one, and the demon was terrifying.

"Why?" Huang Ying looked at Helian Zifeng painfully, the most unlikely person in this world to betray his master is Helian Zifeng, but why did he treat himself like this?

Helian Zifeng didn't answer, raised his hand slightly, the person behind Huang Ying withdrew his long sword, and Huang Ying fell directly to the ground weakly.

The sky was overcast at some point, and the clouds were overcast, as if a heavy downpour was about to fall at any moment.

Lan Sheng brought hot soup early in the morning, that day, they were just detained, not injured, although Wei Qingqing let them rest, but they still insisted on coming out to serve.

"Miss, there is a mother-in-law who claims to be a subordinate of Dr. Huang outside, and the slave maid wanted to invite her to wait in the flower hall, but Sister Qiu Ling said that a doctor's subordinate is not worthy of entering the flower hall, so she let her wait at the gate, and the slave and maid also passed by the gate when she went to the kitchen, and only then did she see the mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law seemed to come before dawn." Lan Zhi came in from outside.

"Coming before dawn?" Could it be that there is something wrong with Huang Ying's side?

"Yo. I just went out of the house with the young lady, but I learned to chew the root of my tongue. ”

As soon as Yu Xia entered the door, she glanced at Lan Zhi fiercely.

Lan Zhi hurriedly lowered her head, Yu Xia snorted coldly, twisted her waist and held a pot of fresh flowers in her hand to Wei Qingqing, and said with a smile: "Miss, this is sent by Master Fang this morning, you see, what about the rare peony, let's grind our nails for a while, and the ladies in the capital are all popular to do this." ”

After Yu Xia finished speaking, Wei Qingqing also instructed Lan Sheng very face-saving: "Take it all, by the way, the eldest brother hasn't gone out yet, send it to the eldest brother to see, just say that it is Fang Ye's heart, and specially asked Yu Xia to send it, let him thank Fang Ye for me." ”

Yu Xia blinked, why did she feel that something was wrong?

But before he could finish thinking about it, Lan Sheng had already neatly held the flowers and went out. Yu Xia looked at Wei Qingqing's appearance as if she was smiling, and always felt that there was a ghost somewhere, and she was afraid that Lan Sheng would come to Wei Xun and chew the root of her tongue, so she hurriedly said: "Miss, the slave will go and prepare something to dye your nails in the afternoon." ”

Wei Qingqing only pretended not to notice her thoughts, nodded with a smile, and said by the way: "In this case, you go and invite the mother-in-law outside the mansion in." ”

"Yes."

Yu Xia hurriedly went down.

After she left, Wei Qingqing glanced at Lan Zhi, this little girl, looking at Mu Ne's timid appearance, her heart was quite fine. And smarter than she thought.

After a while, Huang Ying's personal mother-in-law came.

When Wei Qingqing saw that it was her, she had more and more a bad premonition.

"Madame is gone." The mother-in-law knelt directly on the ground.

"Gone?" Wei Qingqing was puzzled, she had only seen Huang Ying last night, but her mother-in-law shook her head and looked at Wei Qingqing with bloodshot eyes: "Madam has a habit, before going out, she will definitely inform the slave maid in advance where she is going, and make a mark, and when she leaves, she will wipe off the mark, she has maintained this habit for more than ten years, but after she went to the Prime Minister's Mansion early this morning, she did not come back after the time she agreed with the slave maid, so the slave maid went to take a look and found that the mark was still there, but the person was gone." And in an alley not far from the Prime Minister's Mansion, the slave maid found this ......"

As she spoke, the mother-in-law took out a jade pendant from her sleeve, which was left to her by Huang Ying's late husband, and she cherished it very much, but now this jade pendant is stained with blood.

"You go back to the medicine house first, close the door immediately, pack up your things and go to the other hospital, and I'll take care of the rest." Wei Qingqing said in a deep voice.

"Yes."

When the mother-in-law saw that Wei Qingqing should go down, she kowtowed and retreated as if she had eaten a centerstone.

After she left, Wei Qingqing immediately asked people to find Qiu Linglai.

Qiu Ling seems to have just returned from the kitchen from the tooth sacrifice and has just arrived at the house. Lan Zhi, who was standing beside Wei Qingqing with white eyes, twisted her waist and saluted Wei Qingqing and said with a smile: "Miss called the slave maid to come, but I want to change some new jewelry, and Fang Ye has only loosened a lot this morning......"

"Get down on my knees!"

Wei Qingqing's tone was cold.

Qiu Ling was stunned for a while, and was a little angry: "Miss, the slave doesn't know who chewed the tongue in your ear, the slave and the maid are different from those who can't get on the stage and don't know the rules, the slave and the maid do things according to your instructions, and they are looking forward to you becoming a real lady......"

"Do you kneel or not?" Wei Qingqing looked at her and didn't know what was wrong, but she really overestimated her at the beginning, and thought that someone like Fang Zijiao would pick a few smart people, but she didn't expect that she just had a smart face.

Qiu Ling saw that Wei Qingqing was really angry, although she was unwilling to kneel down to this young lady from the countryside, but Fang Ye's instructions she didn't dare to forget, in the end, she knelt down.

But as soon as he knelt down, he heard Wei Qingqing order again: "Lan Zhi, give me a slap on her mouth, today she dares to hang people outside the mansion without authorization, and tomorrow will dare to delay my business!" ”

Lan Zhi looked at Wei Qingqing hesitantly. Seeing that she really wanted to beat Qiu Ling, the cowardice in her usual days disappeared, and she directly ignored Qiu Ling's fierce gaze at her, and stepped forward to hit her face that was finely coated with fat powder, until Qiu Ling's face was high and swollen, and then let her cry and go to complain to Fang Zijiao.

Wei Xun was black-faced because Fang Zijiao sent flowers to Wei Qingqing without authorization, and when he saw that Qiu Ling had made a mistake, he dared to come to complain, even if he argued with Fang Zijiao.

Ge Lao's ears were sharp, and he immediately took Wei Hu to see the excitement, and Wei Qingqing took advantage of this time to go out directly with Lan Zhi.

Huang Ying is her person, in addition to Rong Che, there is also Rong Ruizhang who knows about this, could it be that he did it? But Huang Ying also said last night that Rong Ruizhang was so sick that he couldn't get off the ground at all.

No matter what, she had to go to check it, but as soon as she went out, she bumped into Helian Zifeng...... In other words, Helian Zifeng seemed to be standing here waiting for her.

"Huang Ying is fine."

Helian Zifeng spoke, as if he had long known why Wei Qingqing came out in such a hurry.

Hearing his voice, Lan Zhi trembled in fright, this voice didn't look like a human voice at all, as if a fire burned through her throat, with a dark and weird horror.

But Wei Qingqing's face did not have any discoloration: "Where is she now?" ”

"Later, I'll tell you." Helian Zifeng stretched out his hand towards Wei Qingqing: "Follow me." ”

"Miss......"

Lan Zhi subconsciously grabbed Wei Qingqing's arm, Wei Qingqing frowned, and knew that it was not appropriate to leave at this moment. However, although Helian Zifeng is nominally her big shopkeeper, he is more like an owner who treats her as a pet, although he often helps her, but more, he just likes to watch her silently. Laughing and scolding, he has it all, which is one of the reasons why he agreed to be her big shopkeeper.

She didn't have full control over him, and neither did he. And he only said that Huang Ying was fine, which couldn't explain Huang Ying's bloody jade pendant.

"Zifeng, now that you're back, are you willing to help me?" Wei Qingqing asked him.

Helian Zifeng looked at his empty hand, his eyelids drooped, he withdrew his hand, and did not reply to Wei Qingqing's words. He just took a deep look at her and turned to leave.

Only the little guy next to him took a deep look at Lan Zhi before leaving.

Lan Zhi's hands and feet were cold, and she grabbed Wei Qingqing's sleeve tightly until Wei Qingqing gently patted her shoulder.

"Miss......"

"Today's events, you should have seen nothing, heard nothing, and don't tell anyone a word, understand?" Wei Qingqing advised.

"Yes." Lan Zhi was busy.

Wei Qingqing looked at her, and her heart sank a little. Helian Zifeng, who she can rely on the most, can't help, Huang Ying's life and death are uncertain now, I'm afraid she is still waiting for her to rescue, she can't delay any longer.

"This is the mansion of Lord Wei Qingshan!"

Wei Qingqing was about to continue to go out when she heard a female voice.

Wei Qingqing turned around and saw two dusty people, a mother-in-law and a woman, and recalled in her mind that she had never seen these two people at all.

"Who are you?" Lan Zhi steadied and asked.

"We are here to find Lord Wei, fourteen years ago, Lord Wei and my daughter tied the knot and gave birth to my granddaughter, and then because Lord Wei went to Jiangnan to be an official, he took away my granddaughter, our mother and daughter are looking forward to not returning their son-in-law, and because of the disaster a few years ago, my daughter had to fall into the dust, and now I heard that Lord Wei was transferred to the capital and became a big official, so I rushed to join ah."

The mother-in-law trembled, and tears flowed down her cheeks as she spoke.

But the woman in her thirties and forties next to her stared at Wei Qingqing and shouted: "You are my daughter, I know you, my mother knows you, my hard-working daughter......"

As he spoke, he pounced on Wei Qingqing.

The people living in Yuqian Lane are all high-ranking officials and nobles, and the woman's voice directly shocked the little women in various provinces.

At the corner of the alley, Mrs. Chen just turned around, and it was no one else who followed her, it was Mrs. Zhu, who strictly enforced etiquette and morality, and Mrs. Dali Siqing, the boss of Wei Qingshan.

Wei Qingqing immediately knew the purpose of these two people, and her face sank: "Do you know the punishment for pretending to be a relative of the government?" ”

"It is said that dogs are not poor and children are not ugly, Miss Wei, are you because your wife has been a prostitute because of her livelihood, so you refuse to admit it?" Mrs. Chen spoke.

The woman seemed to react, and her eyes turned red: "It's all my fault, daughter, you don't recognize your mother, or if your mother is dead!" ”

said. collided directly with the stone lion on Wei Qingqing's side, and with a bang, he really hit his head and fell to the ground bleeding.

Mrs. Zhu was short-tempered, and immediately pointed at Wei Qingqing and scolded: "What a vicious young lady, even if this woman is not your biological mother, why do you need to force her to death!" ”

"That is, is it difficult for Lord Wei to really never touch this woman? Back then, he was delegated to Jiangnan to be an official, Jiangnan women are beautiful, he is a young and powerful man, and it is not impossible to marry a beautiful girl, who knows if this woman is really your biological mother? Mrs. Chen hurriedly helped.

As soon as the words fell, the dusty mother-in-law knelt on the ground and cried: "My poor daughter, if you die, I won't live either." "Saying that, he was going to hit the pillar with him, but fortunately he was stopped by Mrs. Zhu's people.

"It's really unbelievable."

Mrs. Zhu was straightforward, and Mrs. Chen fanned the flames on the side, and said directly to Wei Qingqing: "Whether these two people are your relatives or not, if they have an accident because of you today, you immediately carry them into the Wei Mansion and immediately invite a doctor to come for diagnosis and treatment, and it is not a complete insult to Lord Wei's reputation!" ”

"Mrs. Zhu is wrong in what she said. These two people are already unknown, if my young lady rashly connects the two into the house, wouldn't she just happen to be on the way of someone with a heart? ”

As soon as Mrs. Zhu's words fell, Lan Zhi answered.

Mrs. Chen's face sank, and she glanced at the Yahuan beside her, and the Yahuan understood, stepped forward and grabbed Lan Zhi's shirt and slapped her face fiercely: "Despicable thing, a few ladies are in front of you, how can you talk?" ”

Mrs. Chen glanced at the thin and small Wei Qingqing, full of contempt, it was too easy to deal with such a little girl......

"Lan Zhi, call me back!"

Wei Qingqing's tone sank, Lan Zhi reacted quickly, grabbed the girl ring with her backhand, slapped it back with two slaps, and scolded: "You are bold, dare to do it in front of the ladies, you know that this is Yuqian Lane in Yadi, Beijing, I don't know, I think this is a small market." ”

Mrs. Chen opened her mouth and was stunned, Zhu Zhu laughed directly when she saw her like this, and secretly gave Wei Qingqing a thumbs up, and also reacted, Mrs. Chen was using her mother as a gunman.

But my mother is too stubborn......

"Mother, let's go back, it's best to leave this matter to the government." Zhu Zhu persuaded.

Mrs. Zhu's face became more and more heavy: "This matter ......"

"This matter will be dealt with by the courtiers, although the courtier's mother died early, but I will not let a few people who appeared out of nowhere spoil my father and mother, and ruin the reputation of my Wei Mansion." After Wei Qingqing finished speaking directly, he asked Lan Zhi to find someone from the Wei Mansion and ordered: "Carry these two people directly to Jingzhao Mansion for me, Jingzhao Yin is honest and honest, I believe he will check these two people to the bottom and see where they listened to the order, and dared to come to the Wei Mansion to recognize their relatives!" ”

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she panicked in her heart, and hurriedly pulled Mrs. Zhu to stop her, but as soon as she looked up, she saw Rong Che who came out of the Guogong Mansion leisurely.

Didn't you say that Rong Che was not in the house?

Mrs. Chen's eyelids jumped, and she turned around and wanted to escape, but Mrs. Zhu said to Rong Che with a serious face: "Second Master Rong came just in time, I don't think Miss Wei has to trouble going to Jingzhao Mansion today, in the end, it is about the reputation of the girl's family, it is better for Second Master Rong to invite the old Duke of Guogong Mansion to try this case for the first trial." ”

Mrs. Chen was about to vomit blood. fell into the hands of Rong Che, and he was afraid that he would have to lose his skin.

Mrs. Chen secretly prayed that Rong Che was a big man, don't care about this little thing about women, don't care about it......

"Exactly." Rong Che glanced at Lan Zhi's swollen face and Wei Qingqing, who had a cold little face, and smiled gently: "I'm very free today." ”
