Chapter 44: Tell the World
"Your Majesty knows, the concubines can't tolerate such pickled disputes, and now in this situation, the ugliness of the Yanfu family has reached the palace, if you ignore it, you really have wronged Minglan girl."
The queen has always been indifferent, but today it is rare to be the master, and it is more serious. After all, for Yan Minglan, the more she looks at it, the more she likes it, if she can work with Jing Xuan in the future, she can make progress and suppress things is the most important thing.
"What do you mean?"
The emperor inquired and was ready to leave it to the queen to decide.
The queen groaned and did not speak for a moment.
Yan Ling'er is now in danger, and Aunt Zhang is so anxious that her whole body is covered in cold sweat, and her back is wet. The current situation is very unfavorable for them, you must know that what they are facing now is a strong power that holds the power of life and death, and cannot be ignored.
"Queen Mother Mingjian, Mingjian! There must be a misunderstanding in this! My Ling'er girl has a pure temperament, and she can't do such a vicious thing! ”
Aunt Zhang rubbed her knees on the ground, and she took a few steps forward and kowtowed to complain. No matter what, she just can't admit such a crime, otherwise Yan Ling'er is really finished.
"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, I was framed, it was Yan Ruoxi, and she was the mastermind behind everything!"
Yan Ling'er was sad to hold herself, Yan Ruoxi and Aunt Liu didn't want to get out easily, and they stirred up a pool of muddy water even more muddy by making it even more turbid.
Yan Ruoxi was so angry that her body trembled, and when she saw that the eyes of the emperor and the queen shifted to herself, her heartbeat suddenly stopped twice.
"If this rumor spreads in Ruoxi, it will be thundered by the sky and will not be able to die! Sister, do you dare to swear to me? ”
Yan Ruoxi could only force the two to discuss the plan, and there was no evidence to excuse the matter, and now this poisonous oath is even more confusing.
It is true that she did not personally go out to spread false rumors, but everything she planned was even more vicious, and she was the real initiator.
"You!"
Yan Ling'er didn't dare to swear, and was choked all of a sudden.
On the contrary, Aunt Zhang stepped forward and accused: "My Ling'er girl doesn't have much opinion, and she doesn't know that she was instigated by you." Now you keep swearing by spreading rumors and crimes, but you don't know if you dare to swear by others as the mastermind behind the scenes, if it were you, the sky would thunder? ”
At this moment, Yan Ruoxi was choked, gritted her teeth and didn't dare to speak. You must know that believing in gods and the like is still very spiritual, and if you swear a poisonous oath with your conscience, you are really afraid of fulfilling it.
"Sister, what you said is too much. is so sure that the mastermind behind the scenes is Ruoxi, is it possible that there is conclusive evidence? If not, you are completely forcing a confession! ”
Aunt Liu hurriedly broke the siege, relying on the fact that the second room could not come up with evidence, she was so arrogant that she even bit back. Later, the deep meaning in the words one after another all said that Aunt Zhang was suspected of planting blame!
This replied in front of the palace, and every word was simply considered again and again, lest he would take his life. As a result, Aunt Liu kept pouring sewage, Yan Ruoxi helped on the side, Aunt Zhang and Yan Ling'er couldn't get around everywhere, and they were so anxious that they jumped everywhere.
Yan Minglan has been silent, watching this farce like an outsider from beginning to end. You must know that the two rooms are united on weekdays, and the friendship of sympathy for each other is deep, but when the disaster comes, they push each other, which is really ironic.
The queen also heard some clues in the shouting of the two rooms, she was deeply trapped in the harem, and she could get through it at one point. Unexpectedly, Yan Mansion just lost the head of the family and became like this, and the wives and concubines joined forces to deal with their daughters.
In the same position, facing the same harem as a demon concubine, the queen felt the same way, and wanted to protect Yan Minglan even more.
So, the queen gave the old lady a look, and the long-term tacit understanding of getting along with the old lady was a matter of understanding.
"Your Majesty, the concubine recently ordered her grandmother to go to Fenglin Temple to receive a lot of incense and poetry, but a few girls helped to copy it, and now she has a headache."
The queen spoke, and the old lady walked down the hall, and couldn't help but check the palms of Yan Ling'er and Yan Ruoxi one by one.
The emperor was curious and asked, "What does this mean?"
"The Xuanji Elder of Fenglin Temple is the most knowledgeable about the ancient and modern, and specially explained to Mama, who must meet the conditions of a girl who has not left the pavilion and clear palm lines, so that he can sincerely move the heavens and benefit the people of Weichi."
The queen's eyes don't blink, and it's hard to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
The emperor swept Yan Ling'er and Yan Ruoxi, and his heart was clear. Since she had an idea to dispose of it, she just followed it.
The old lady looked good, looked at the lines of Yan Ling'er's palm, and said: "The old slave sees that this young lady just meets the conditions for excerpting scriptures and chanting and praying for blessings. The 1,392 forms of the Polo Heart Sutra happen to have a candidate to write it. ”
What the?!
Yan Ling'er's eyes widened, and she only felt that her eyes were black. If the third lady of the entire Yanfu is the most unlearned, she is her. On weekdays, the copying homework assigned by Mr. Private School is copied by the maid, but ...... today? One thousand three hundred and ninety-two styles, then I'm afraid that after a few days and nights of excerpts, my hands will be wasted!
The old lady didn't look at Yan Ling'er's expression when the sky fell, and turned to look at Yan Ruoxi's palm. Yan Ruoxi resisted a little and wanted to withdraw her hand, but who knew that she was clenched by force in the next second, and the old lady's eyes were deterred.
Yan Ruoxi didn't dare to move, and the old lady spoke: "This Miss Yan's condition is a little worse, and it is not appropriate to copy the Polo Heart Sutra, but the whole book of scriptures that Niangniang just got in her hands is very suitable."
Compared with the 1,392-style Polo Heart Sutra, a stack of ancient scriptures twice as thick as it was Yan Ruoxi's task in the next few days.
The old lady has a good eye, and she can see that this girl has a bad stomach than Yan Ling'er, and she is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Coupled with the ins and outs of the argument just now, Mama also understands that it is natural to count the crimes and punish them together, and there is a definite number of who is light and who is heavy.
The queen smiled with satisfaction, and the rosary spun faster. Now that these two girls have followed the old lady into the palace to extract the scriptures, there must not be much spare time for a long time to come. After all, as far as those scriptures are concerned, some of them boil it.
Although the two aunts of the Yan family can rest assured, they will hand over their two daughters to the old grandmother to manage for a period of time, and they will be able to restrain their temperament. The first class of scripture excerpts is completed, and it can be regarded as making up for the merits, and the hard work is one piece higher, how. ”
The queen left the two aunts of Zhang and Liu to make a choice, whether to refuse like this and be punished directly, or to send people to the palace, and then polish them well and offset the punishment. Everything depends on the wishes of the two.
Yan Ling'er looked at Aunt Zhang for help, but Aunt Zhang gritted her teeth and turned a blind eye. Now that I am pampering this girl, I am afraid that the entire second room will be difficult to protect herself, and the punishment of copying scriptures is much lighter than imagined, it is better than losing your head!
Obviously, Aunt Liu also thought the same way, secretly glad that the queen did not like the kindness of killing. At this moment, the compromise of the third room is much faster than that of the second room, Yan Ruoxi is not a master who has no eyesight, the big deal is to suffer for a while.
The group kowtowed and thanked the emperor and the queen for their grace not to kill, and until the dust settled, their hearts were still beating like thunder, and it was difficult to calm down the fear.
"Your Majesty, now that the girl in the two rooms is handed over to Mama to take care of herself, she must be hard working and will not be slack."
The queen didn't call the two rooms, turned to look at Yan Minglan slightly, and her eyes showed true love: "On the contrary, I have suffered this girl recently, and I ask Your Majesty to tell the world and clarify the rumors." Such...... Jing Xuan must also be at ease. ”
In and out of words, the queen protected Yan Minglan and regarded her as a satisfactory daughter-in-law.
"Good, good!"
The emperor was happy, summoned Yan Minglan to come up, and appeased him for a while. The softness of this spring breeze is in stark contrast to the cold color before, and the two rooms are jealous of this completely different treatment.
"Girl, you've been suffering for a while, and now that the truth has been revealed, it's natural to post a clarification notice! Don't worry, if anyone dares to rumor a word of no, I will definitely want someone to look good! ”
The emperor's words were sonorous and powerful, and they were promised. Yan Minglan kowtowed to thank her, and now she really put her heart back in her stomach.
"As for your marriage with Jing Xuan as usual, as well as the inauguration of the translator, they can also be put in place one by one."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall had different thoughts. Yan Ling'er's expression was understandable, but she was just disappointed. But Yan Ruoxi is much more complicated, mixed with indescribable envy and jealousy.
Why is she so busy in the end, why is Yan Minglan safe and sound, and she can still enjoy the thriving artistic conception of her career and marriage? !
Yan Ruoxi thought of the pain of taking love from the horizontal knife of the dragon's son-in-law who was about to become a brother-in-law, and her eyes were full of sudden poisonous malice.
The queen sat in the high position and had a clear view, frowning, and her impression of Yan Ruoxi was another bad one.
It seems that the ambitions of all the wolves in this Yan Mansion are not simple......
Thinking of this, the queen only felt relieved compared to Yan Minglan, who was still muddy and unstained in this pool of sewage. A lot of small observations are superimposed, and invisibly about this marriage, it is naturally more biased towards Yan Minglan.
"Courtier, thank you!"
With the emperor's order, Yan Minglan thanked him, and the follow-up of the whole farce was in the process of calming down in an orderly manner. Not only the notice boards in the capital are plastered with details about the punishment of rumors, but also in various prefectures, towns, and villages, and the clarification team is constantly expanding.
And Aunt Zhang and Aunt Liu naturally returned to Yanfu in a gloomy manner, and with the rumors on the notice clarified in detail, everyone naturally snooped and understood. pointed at them one after another, and made the two aunts taste the backlash, and they didn't even dare to go out of the limelight.
The encounter between Yan Ruoxi and Yan Ling'er was even worse, and the old lady was ordered to be strict. It doesn't matter if Yan Ling'er is making a big fuss about the strike, or Yan Ruoxi is crying and being careful. The old lady was unmoved, and the two of them were miserable.
It wasn't until a few months later that Yan Ruoxi and Yan Ling'er ended the torture of copying scriptures, but they were afraid that it would be difficult for their right hand to hold any heavy objects for a period of time in the future.
They dare not speak out, and when they return to their past social life, they must endure a lot of secret discussions and eyes. Especially Yan Ling'er because of the scourge of her sisters, the daughters of those false sisterhoods in the past have all cut off contact with her, and even brought talented young people who listened to the rumors, like avoiding snakes and scorpions.
And the marriage between Yan Minglan and the third prince will not change their minds at all after the decision of the emperor and the queen.
