Chapter 124
This is exactly the effect of Mo Jin.
With a sneer, Mo Jin looked at them and scolded sharply: "Who went to the Prime Minister's Mansion today to arrange that this princess had a miserable life?" Stand up for me! ”
The scene was silent for a moment, but everyone looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, I don't dare to speak, just communicate with my eyes.
Hooking the corners of his lips, Mo Jin walked to the white marble table on the side and sat down, picked up the freshly poured sour plum soup, and drank it in small sips.
In fact, there is no need to check this matter at all, you know who it is with your toes, after all, last time Aunt Liu sent two maids to her, Lan'er went to Fengshan Courtyard, and the other one named Die'er must have delivered news to Liu's family, she was going to open a blind eye and forget it, but she never thought that some people would dare to open a dyeing workshop if they really gave a little color!
The reason why she made such a play was to act in a play, firstly, to let those who wanted to be spies also taste the feeling of being betrayed, and secondly, she had to let Won Yeol know in this way that she was not a casual person who liked to make small reports.
However, that butterfly seems to have a very strong psychological quality, and her face has not changed so far.
Now, the fun has just begun.
Putting down the clean white porcelain cup, Mo Jin put his hand into the sleeve cage, took out a silver ticket of fifty taels, put it lightly on the table, raised his eyes to look at the surprised subordinates, and said in a deep voice: "I will give you a chance, as long as you take the initiative to stand up and admit your mistakes, I can not only not blame the past, but this silver ticket can also be given to you as a reward for knowing that you can change your mistakes." ”
"But," Mo Jin's voice turned, "If you don't say it, but you are identified by others, this silver ticket can only be given to the person who reported it, and you will end up miserable." ”
As soon as the words fell, the subordinates immediately began to discuss with each other.
Of course, in order not to embarrass everyone to meet in the future, Mo Jin engaged in an anonymous reporting system.
She asked Su Yan to go to the study to prepare some small pieces of paper of the same size, and sent them to everyone present, if she thought about it, she would go to the table in front of her to take a brush, and then write down her name and the name of the person she wanted to report, if she didn't know anything, just write her name, and then Su Yan would collect and sort it out.
But you can't report others indiscriminately, once you are found out, you will be beaten and thrown out of the house.
Mo Jinyan was all this, and she didn't want to say anything more, so she continued to let Su Xin pour her a cup of sour plum soup, and drank it slowly in a good mood.
If it weren't as she expected, the girl named Die'er would be very calm, and she would definitely not take the initiative to stand up.
Sure enough, a moment later, a maid cautiously stepped out of the ranks.
Mo Jin smiled: "What, is it the Prime Minister's Mansion you went to?" ”
The maid hurriedly shook her head, saying that she just wanted to step forward and write her name, and Mo Jin nodded in agreement. With the first person taking the lead, the rest of the work went very smoothly, and others came forward to write their names one after another.
But with a cup of tea, everyone handed over the pieces of paper in their hands to Su Yan.
Taking the piece of paper that had disrupted the order from Su Yan's hand, Mo Jin quickly flipped through it, and finally, a pair of eyes finally smiled into crescent moons.
"Alright, let's all disperse," Mo Jin waved his hand, "But, Die'er, you stay." ”
Several pairs of eyes present looked at the named butterfly, who slowly stepped forward with a pale face.
"It's all scattered, it's all scattered, let's go and get busy, didn't you hear what the princess just said?" Su Yan quickly evacuated the people who wanted to see the excitement, and only Mo Jin, Su Yan Su Xin, and Die'er were left in the courtyard.
"Why did you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to tell the Prime Minister that this princess is sick and no one cares?" Raising her head, Mo Jin looked at the girl standing in front of her.
I saw that Die'er, who was still very calm before, had red circles in her eyes at this time, trembling slightly, and didn't even dare to raise her head.
In the end, he is still young, Mo Jin sighed in his heart.
"Don't you want to say yes?" Mo Jin lost his temper in an instant, and he didn't want to try any of the "torture to extract confessions" scene that he had just made up in his brain.
Die'er nodded when she heard this, and immediately shook her head, for a long time, slowly knelt down, choked and said: "The slave didn't tell the prime minister, it's just that she just told the lady, the slave and the maid knew that she was wrong, and she wouldn't dare to do it again in the future, ask the princess for forgiveness, ask the princess for forgiveness." ”
As she spoke, Butterfly began to cry, she was still so young that she didn't want to die at all.
Mo Jin always looked at her without saying a word, and when she had cried enough, she said in a deep voice: "How is it, it feels very uncomfortable to be betrayed, right?" ”
Die'er was stunned when she heard this, then nodded with difficulty, and began to cry again, "The slave really knows that she is wrong, please ask the princess for mercy, my mother is sick in bed, and she is still waiting for me to take the money back to buy medicine for her every month, and ask the princess to be merciful." ”
Mo Jin knew that Die'er's heart had suffered a great deal of pain at this moment, and today's goal had been achieved.
"It's good to know, although I don't like your kind of meticulous work of picking up the bowl to eat and putting down the bowl and scolding your mother," Mo Jin sighed, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, for the sake of your young age, I won't punish you, but you can't stay in this sunny garden in the future, I'll see, where will I arrange for you next?" ”
Holding his cheeks, Mo Jinwu fell into deep thought.
"That's it, you can go to work in the laundry room in the future, although I won't punish you, but this Sunny Sky Garden must not leave a person who betrayed me." At this time, Mo Jin's tone has a kind of decisiveness and calmness that is not obvious, but is extraordinarily determined.
Die'er, who was kneeling on the ground, was shocked after receiving amnesty, thinking that she would die, but she didn't expect that the princess was not ready to execute her, at that moment, she actually had a sense of unreality.
When she came back to her senses, Die'er kowtowed again and again, and shouted in her mouth, "Thank you for the grace of the princess not to kill." ”
Now it was Mo Jin's turn to look confused, why didn't she remember that she said she was going to kill her......
After Die'er left, Mo Jin threw the eight blank pieces of paper in her hand on the table, only to see that except for Die'er who wrote her own name, everyone else only wrote her own name, and no one reported her.
Su Yan and Su Xin, who had been holding back their doubts for a long time, hurriedly asked you and me one by one.
"Princess, no one here has reported others, why do you conclude that it is Die'er?"
"Yes, yes, what if Butterfly doesn't want to admit it?"
"Yes, why didn't you punish that traitor severely?"
……
Mo Jin was so noisy by the two of them that she was about to get big, and immediately said: "This involves criminal psychology, generally speaking, people who commit crimes will be afraid afterwards, especially when things are revealed, her words and deeds will be very different from those of open-minded people, as long as you ask a little and observe carefully, the paper will always be unable to contain the fire!" ”
After finishing speaking, Mo Jin drifted away, hiding his merit and fame.
Leaving Su Yan and Su Xin staring at each other in place, they said in unison, "Do you understand what the princess just said?" ”
Then the two shook their heads together with a very tacit understanding.
Mo Jin, who threw down the two of them and slipped away by herself, pondered this matter carefully, she knew that Die'er would definitely not go to sue her father Mo Hongzhang, so Mo Hongzhang knew about this matter, it must be through the mouth of the Liu family, but the Liu family usually hated her too late, wishing that she died in the palace, how could Mo Hongzhang know that she was wronged.
But now Mo Hongzhang does know about this "unwarranted" thing, except for what Liu said, she can't think of a second person, but what is Liu's purpose in doing this?
Thinking of what has happened recently, Mo Jin suddenly has a feeling of being sudden.
After the death of the original owner's mother, Mo Hongzhang's original intention was not to continue the string, but after three years of mourning, the emperor ordered Mo Hongzhang to support the Liu family in the side room as his wife, and the emperor's order was difficult to disobey, and Mo Hongzhang did so.
Some time ago, knowing that the original owner liked the crown prince Yuan Chenyu, in order to pave the way for his daughter and kill the original owner, the Liu family actually made a hindrance from it, and asked the emperor to issue an order to marry her and Yuan Lie.
Why did the emperor make an exception for the Liu family twice and three times? Of course, it is not that the two have any adultery, but that Liu's mother's family is a relative of the current Queen Mother and the Queen, and they all have the same surname, Chu.
Although the Liu family is a concubine, so she became a concubine, but this does not prevent her from having a strong backer, although that backer may not want her to rely on, but as long as she can afford the money, let alone the queen, even the ghost can be moved.
No wonder, the Liu family will privately swallow the dowry left by the original owner's mother to the original owner, and think about it to honor those big people. Then the Liu family told Mo Hongzhang that she was not doing well in the palace, and it made sense.
Because only in this way can the relationship between the prime minister and King Yi be provoked and the alliance between the two can be broken.
After figuring out this matter, Mo Jin felt funny and angry, but more afraid.
She suddenly thought of the jade pendant on the killer, the queen mother and Yuan Chenyu, although the shape is a little different, but the pattern on it is exactly the same, is it possible that the entire Chu family has this jade pendant decorated?
The Chu family, the largest and deep-rooted family in the Lanhai Kingdom, if they really joined forces to deal with Yuan Lie, it would really be a terrible thing.
She believed that no matter how powerful Yuan Lie was, it would be difficult to fight against the entire Chu family.
A cold wind blew, and dark clouds accumulated on the horizon, and it seemed that the sky was about to change again. Mo Jin inexplicably smelled a breath of mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building.
Shaking his head, Mo Jin slightly exhaled a breath of turbid breath in his chest, there are some things that she can control as a weak woman, Yuan Lie, you ask for more blessings, Mo Jin said silently in his heart.
On the same day, Su Yan and Su Xin conveyed Mo Jin's thoughts to all the scary people in Qingtian Garden - if someone dares to betray her and betray Yuan Lie in the future, they will definitely no longer be as lucky as Die'er.
At the same time, a swift black shadow flashed from a large green tree outside the Sunny Sky Garden, and swept towards the Tingxue Garden.
The Dark Guard reported everything that happened in the Sunny Sky Garden this afternoon to Yuan Lie, much to his surprise.
I thought that Mo Jin sent someone to Mo Hongzhang to complain, but she didn't expect that she was also kept in the dark.
But he had to sigh at Mo Jin's eccentricity, and even deserved to be resourceful, but why would such a person be so stupid that he froze into a cold?
Holding a scroll in his hand, Yuan Lie, who was sitting on a chair and cultivating himself, had a smile in his eyes.
This stunned the secret guard who came to report, and almost walked with the same hands and feet when he left.
Qingfeng also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and asked carefully: "Lord Wang, does this mean that the princess did not collude with Yuan Chenyu and the others to murder you?" ”
Hearing this, the smile in Yuan Lie's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his voice was still cold and low, "Is it not, I won't know until tonight." ”
"Then the maid who came out of the Sunny Sky Garden, did she stay in the laundry room according to the princess's arrangement, or did she ......?"
"As the princess said."
Qingfeng nodded, stopped talking, and continued to be his wallflower.
Yuan Lie looked at the dark clouds rolling in the sky and said softly, "Wait. ”
Waiting for tonight's result is also waiting for his guess, and even more waiting for someone.
A cold wind swept by, and the raindrops the size of beans fell from the sky, and the dry ground instantly deepened in color, and in a short time, a pile of rain accumulated.
Yuan Yeol suddenly frowned, and said uneasily: "There is so much rain this year, I'm afraid I will suffer from flooding......"
At this time, King Yi seems to have a heart for the world and the country and the people, which is very different from the ruthless murder that is rumored in the outside world.
"God bless Lanhai." Yuan Yeol raised his right hand, rested his palm on his heart, and made the most devout prayer to the heavens.
Qingfeng also made the same gesture as Won Yeol, praying silently in the bottom of his heart.
"By the way, let Nangong Yu send the decoction and side-medicine to Qingtianyuan, and quickly cure her wind cold, otherwise, Prime Minister Mo should come to this palace to make a fuss." Yuan Yeol's voice was full of self-deprecation.
In the morning, Mo Hongzhang still remembered his appearance of both soft and hard, and he didn't want to provoke the great prime minister who could talk about the Confucianism.
"Yes." Light Breeze took the order and was about to leave quickly, but was stopped by Yuan Yeol.
"Forget it, after the medicine is decocted, you come to inform this king, and this king will personally send it over," Yuan Lie had already moved his gaze back to the scroll, and when he saw that Qingfeng was stunned and did not leave, he added in disguise, "Don't think about it too much, this king is just worried that he will not make a fuss about it again when someone has a heart." ”
……
Lord Wang, your words are completely superfluous! The subordinates didn't think much about it, but you had to think about it when you said that! Qingfeng nodded expressionlessly, and he had already complained in his heart.
In the Sunny Sky Garden, the sudden heavy rain trapped Mo Jin's footsteps when she wanted to go out for a walk, so she had to stay in the study and continue to draw her BL comics.
But she always felt as if she had forgotten something very important, but she couldn't remember it even if she wanted to break her head.
It felt like some very important gossip she heard outside Wonyeol's study last night, but I don't know if it was due to a headache and brain fever caused by a cold, or because she slept too much last night, anyway, she just didn't remember it.
Mo Jin has never been a person who will not get along with herself, she simply doesn't think about it if she can't think of it, she nests in the house with peace of mind to draw pictures and eat snacks, and spends the afternoon happily.
Towards evening, the showers gradually stopped, and after the rain cleared, a brilliant rainbow hung in the sky.
Yuan Lie personally carried the food box and walked slowly towards the Qingtian Garden, which contained a decoction for Mo Jin to treat wind and cold, and Qingfeng followed him expressionlessly.
When you are about to arrive at the Sunny Garden, you will pass by a section of green tile and white wall, there is a row of Xiangfei bamboo planted on the side of the wall, and next to the bamboo is a sheep intestine path paved with rain flower stones, and the master and servant are walking on the road.
However, something unexpected happened, outside the walls of the palace, a pointed head suddenly appeared, and they could not see their faces, only a jade crown with jet-black black hair.
Yuan Lie and Light Breeze were both shocked, who was so bold in their hearts, they even dared to climb the wall of the palace, Light Breeze stepped forward, and just wanted to draw his sword, he heard the "head" seem to be talking to the person under the wall with his head down.
"Xiao Liangzi, are you sure that Miss Mo lives in this location?" It was a man who spoke, and his voice was warm and clear.
"Ouch, the fourth prince, just put your heart in your stomach! The location of the sunny garden has been investigated properly, and after climbing this wall, ten zhang forward, the slave is doing things, you can rest assured~" The male duck said confidently, "If you are really not at ease, you can step on the shoulder of the slave first." ”
The Four Princes?!
"This ......" Qingfeng let go of the hand holding the hilt of the sword, and looked back at Yuan Lie in extreme embarrassment, although he only saw the mask, he guessed that his prince's face was afraid that it had turned black to the bottom of the pot.
"Okay, the prince will believe you once, if not, he will reward you with a meal of fried pork on a bamboo board at night!" Yuan Mochen said with a smile.
"Gotcha! Please! The duck smiled in a smooth voice.
After receiving the scroll handed over by the eunuch, Yuan Mochen just grasped the hand of the scroll and put it on the edge of the wall, when he felt that the scroll in his hand was vigorously pulled away.
Yuan Mochen was startled, and immediately stood up by stepping on the eunuch's shoulder, and blurted out: "Bold!" ”
But when he saw who had taken his painting on the other side of the wall, he was instantly frightened and silent, neither entering, nor retreating, nor moving, nor moving, and the whole person turned into a piece of wood, standing on the wall stupidly.
"Fourth Prince, are you sure? There's a sunny garden ahead, right? The eunuch at his feet asked with a smile.
Yuan Mochen hurriedly gritted his teeth and whispered, "Shut up, you!" ”
Handing the food box in his hand to Qingfeng, Yuan Mochen didn't look at Yuan Mochen, who was already frightened, and untied the scroll and slowly unfolded the painting.
When he saw clearly what was painted on the scroll, Yuan Lie's eyes were suddenly filled with anger and murderous intent, and after saying three "good, good", he folded the scroll again, his voice became extremely cold, and he asked knowingly: "I don't know who Chen'er took this "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" to turn over the wall on the palace to see?" ”
Before Yuan Mochen could react, as soon as the eunuch under him heard this voice, he trembled with fright, and sat down on the ground weakly. ”
Yuan Lie didn't pay attention to him, just looked straight into Yuan Mochen's eyes, and asked: "The emperor's nephew hasn't answered the question of this king just now, are you holding this "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" to see who is in this king's mansion?" If this king is not mistaken, this is the real thing? ”
