Chapter 64: Skins don't smile
Looking at their curious looks, Zhen Chutian thought for a moment: "You go to the compound and call my father over, just say that there is an emergency, oh yes, you have to call Zhen Yue." ”
Zhen Yue is the mastermind in all this, how can she do it without her.
Hearing this, Pei'er didn't dare to go to the front yard to call someone, but after a while, Zhen Yuanshan came here.
Seeing that they were tying up a mother-in-law, his face suddenly became gloomy: "What's going on?" You can't live in peace for a day in the Prime Minister's Mansion, can you?!"
Zhen Chutian stuck his waist and said confidently: "This mother-in-law came in and poisoned me, and now the water has been thrown away by me, and my father indiscriminately said that I want to make trouble, is it too arbitrary?"
Zhen Yuanshan was in an irritable mood today, and he was angry, and when he came back to his senses, he found out that this was his eldest daughter who was about to be made a meritorious service.
He immediately changed to a courteous smile and said softly: "It's all my father's bad words, my father has wronged you." ”
Zhen Chutian snorted coldly, now she has straightened her waist in the court, let alone in front of this man? Sometimes you have to leak out a little temper, otherwise you are still a good person in their eyes. ”
"This mother-in-law must have someone to instruct her in private, but no matter how her daughter asked, she refused to say, and asked her father to think of an idea." Zhen Chutian directly pushed this matter to his father.
She knew that no matter what she did, she was afraid that it would be some means that they could think of, and it was better to hand it over to her father directly, so that this mother-in-law would not be mentally prepared at all.
Sure enough, the mother-in-law's face changed slightly, and she was already a little scared.
Zhen Chutian saw her fear, and deliberately asked: "I heard that there is a punishment called broken fists, which says that if a person makes a mistake, he will make several five big and three thick people clench their fists and beat his stomach vigorously until the hammer is broken and bleeding, and his intestines are broken." ”
She has never read such a novel, nor has she heard of this kind of thing, what a broken fist, if she can hide it from this old woman now, she can still make it up.
Zhen Yuanshan really seems to know his daughter best, and at a glance, he can see that she is pretending, but he has not exposed it.
"You're right, there is indeed such a punishment, but I haven't tried it for many years, just because it's too cruel, it's not right to smash everyone alive, but this basket is so vicious, it actually poisoned your bucket, if you want to poison the people of your lotus pavilion, you can't tolerate it!"
Zhen Yuanshan waved his hand: "Come on, go find two sturdy guys, and do what the eldest lady says." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Liu behind him immediately gave up his hand to do it.
Watching them go back and forth seems to be moving the real grid. The old woman was finally scared.
She hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Please let the old slave go, the old slave has done something bad, but it's not just the old slave who poisons him!"
Looking at her humble appearance, Zhen Chutian felt a little unhappy.
She doesn't know why, these people's brains have been eaten by dogs, and they have to follow Zhen Yue, who didn't end well, and now they can experience what it feels like to be desperate one by one, isn't it too late to regret it?
"You'd better explain what it means not only to poison you, but also to whom?" Zhen Chutian asked.
In order to save her life, the old woman could only tell the truth: "The person who went down to the temple is another mother-in-law, she was ordered to bury incense under the begonia tree in the courtyard, if someone smells it for a long time, it will not be able to give birth to children." ”
After hearing this, Zhen Yuanshan's face changed slightly, and Zhen Chutian took two steps back in shock: "Someone actually wants me to die?!" Tell me, who is the mastermind behind this?"
Her impatience didn't look abnormal, but rather an anxious desire to find the killer and the truth.
The mother-in-law gritted her teeth: "It's Miss Zhen." ”
"Second Miss asked you to deal with me?"
Zhen Chutian narrowed his eyes and asked seriously.
The mother-in-law nodded hurriedly, and now for this part, she can only explain to her: "The second lady instructed me and another mother-in-law to do it at the same time, even if you can't poison the eldest lady, you can use the camera to make you unable to have children for the rest of your life, and you won't be able to marry in the future." ”
After hearing this, Zhen Yuanshan clenched his fists and slammed the chopsticks to the ground.
The crackling sound sounded, and several maids looked at each other in fright, not knowing what he meant.
Zhen Chutian sobbed quietly: "I really didn't expect that my sister has never treated me as a family, and she has come to this point, and she has to do something to me, do I deserve to be suppressed and eat their leftover cold rice and cold dishes in the Lotus Pavilion for the rest of my life?"
What she said was very pitiful, and Zhen Yuanshan, who listened to it, couldn't help but feel a little unbearable.
He asked softly, "Do you still have breakfast?" Let's fill your stomach first, don't be angry. ”
"No, let's give me justice first, father, you now know such a vicious scheme, this is all Zhen Yue's idea, in order to give me justice, what are you going to do?"
Zhen Chutian didn't ask him if he wanted to be punished, but directly asked how to punish him, because Zhen Yue had to pay her due price for doing this.
Zhen Yuanshan pondered for a moment, and muttered: "It seems that just like you said, if you have to punish her, you will punish her with ten boards, and let her be grounded in the courtyard for another two months, what do you think?"
He said these words without hesitation, as if he had already thought about it in his heart.
Zhen Chutian's eyes widened in surprise.
It turned out to be the top ten boards!
She knew that Zhen Yue had eaten a lot less every night in order to make herself look better, and she had been getting thinner and thinner these days, and she was dressed better, but her body was also very weak.
If the ten boards come down, I am afraid that if I don't vomit blood, I will be sore, and I will not be able to walk on the ground for a month.
She still couldn't believe that Zhen Yuanshan would be so cruel to this so-called daughter.
Zhen Chutian thought about this, and immediately nodded and said: "This is very good, whatever my father decides, I only hope that our Prime Minister's Mansion will have no trouble in the future." ”
Zhen Yuanshan nodded, and before he could say anything, he saw a small guy walking outside.
The little servant said respectfully: "The holy decree has come to the palace, please ask the lord and the eldest lady to go out to receive the decree." ”
Zhen Yuanshan and Zhen Yue glanced at each other, and immediately hurried out to the compound.
After seeing the eunuch, several people knelt on the ground.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, Miss Zhen has made a meritorious contribution to solving the robbers, and she will be named a five-grade female official immediately."
Hearing this, everyone froze in place.
Zhen Yuanshan stood up in disbelief: "The minister accepts the order, but is it really a fifth-grade female official?"
"Yes, Miss Zhen has made a great contribution this time, and it stands to reason that she should be rewarded, but there is no shortage of gold, silver, jewelry, and other things that the eldest lady can give, and there are only suitable things that the night pearl and the official emperor can reward."
The eunuch replied with a smile, and now he really admires these people in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Not only are there highly respected ministers, but even her daughter is the first female official since the founding of the country, which is really amazing.
Seeing the huge night pearls, Zhen Chutian swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but think in his heart about how much silver he could exchange for, and how much delicious food he could eat with these silvers.
Zhen Yuanshan took the holy decree over, and until he sent the two fathers-in-law away, his face was still flushed with excitement: "You really give your father a long face, and you actually became a five-grade female official!"
However, he never thought of Zhen Chutian becoming an official in the court, and he didn't know if his daughter would also become an official, and would disagree with him in public.
And it turns out that Zhen Chutian doesn't have the mental strength to do these things at all.
She could sense that Zhen Yuanshan was in a good mood, but the fifth-grade female official was not the best reward for her.
Because..... From now on, she will go to the morning court!
System: "That's all you have to offer, you don't want to be an official in order to sleep lazy." ”
"What the hell is going on with you?!"
Zhen Chutian rolled his eyes, and under Zhen Yuanshan's reminder, he packed his things and prepared to enter the palace.
Since she was named a female official, she had to enter the palace no matter what, after all, this was the only precedent for the founding of the country.
Come to the Imperial Study.
Before Zhen Chutian could speak, the emperor looked at her and let out a hearty laugh: "Yes, Miss Zhen, how did you save Prince Hua last night, he has already told me, you deserve this fifth-grade female official!"
"Thank you for the emperor's compliment, the little girl came here to thank you." She smiled embarrassedly: "The little girl feels that she is not going to be named a female official, but she feels ashamed." ”
"Don't say that."
The emperor waved his hand and chuckled: "To be able to clean up so many robbers with strong martial arts, and to be able to rescue Prince Hua without fear, no woman in this world can do it, this female official let you be you, don't shirk." ”
"Yes."
Zhen Chutian agreed with a smile, and before he could say anything, he heard a sound of footsteps behind him.
Queen Xiaozhuang was dressed dignified and luxurious, and was walking towards this side step by step, although her face was smiling, her eyes were clearly full of cold light.
"I've been grounded for more than half a month, and I let her out when I saw her sincere repentance, Miss Zhen won't mind, right?" The emperor asked this directly, without any thoughts.
Zhen Chutian knew that the emperor was easy to be soft-hearted, and he was suddenly a little speechless.
She was about to die in the camp that day, and it turned out that the culprit was only locked up for more than half a month, and it was too much.... It's not fair.
"Miss Zhen, it was the palace that was confused for a while before attacking you, I hope you can forgive the palace, you will be a female official of the court in the future, and you will always meet in the court every day, and the palace does not want to be separated from you all the time, do you think?"
Empress Xiaozhuang leaned over and held her hand tightly, and her tone was very soft.
After hearing this, Zhen Chutian forcibly resisted the urge to get her rid of her, and also followed the smile without smiling: "Yes, yes, the queen is right, we will all be in the palace in the future, and we will not see anyone looking up when we look down, and it is better to forget those things before." ”
She can forget the past, but it doesn't mean that she won't continue to target the queen.
I'm afraid that this old witch also wants to play in front of the emperor, and she doesn't really want to be close to her.
The emperor nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, if the two of you get along, it's a good thing, and I will be relieved to look at it." ”
"Actually, the concubine likes Miss Zhen very much, it's just that there was some misunderstanding in the past, it's better for the eldest lady to stay in the palace today, you go to Fengqi Palace to live again, the palace promises to treat you well, how about it?"
Queen Xiaozhuang hooked her lips and asked this in anticipation.
Zhen Chutian's heart suddenly became alarmed.
She didn't want to go to the ghost place of Fengqi Palace, so as not to be beaten again.
"Don't be afraid, Bengong said this seriously, I didn't let you live well last time, Bengong felt very guilty, this time there is a chance, you can go and live."
Queen Xiaozhuang smiled brighter and brighter: "Don't worry, there will be no accident this time, if someone dares to touch a finger of you, you will come and sue the emperor, and the palace will bear any responsibility." ”
Hearing this, the emperor was very pleased.
It seems that the queen knows Zhen Chutian's ability, and she has also changed her opinion of a woman with strange hands.
Zhen Chutian smiled lightly and shirked: "Let's live another day." ”
"Do you dislike this palace? Or is it angry with the main palace? In the past, it was the fault of the palace, but this time the palace really wants to treat you well. ”
