164 counterattack
Gu Jue stood up from the chair and protected Chu Qianchen by his side.
"Do it to the princess of this king in front of this king, who gave you the guts!"
He looked down at Chu Lingxiao who was sitting on the chair from above, cold and arrogant, his eyes shot like an ice arrow, and the cold air was awe-inspiring.
"......" Chu Lingxiao looked at him like falling into an ice cellar, and couldn't help but shudder.
His wrist was burning and aching.
He dared to beat Chu Qianchen, because Chu Qianchen was his daughter, but when he faced Gu Jue, he couldn't even say anything, and said in a strong and dry manner: "This unfilial daughter not only slandered her grandmother, but also disobeyed Ben Hou, and Ben Hou should teach her a lesson." ”
That's right, it's only right for fathers to teach their daughters a lesson!
"Oh? How is it slandered? Gu Jue raised his eyebrows slightly, and said neatly, "This king wants to listen to what Hou Ye has to say." If you can't say clearly, then ask Jing Zhaoyin to interrogate. ”
After the words fell, the room was silent.
“……”
“……”
“……”
Everyone was stunned again, wondering if they had heard something.
Please Jing Zhaoyin to go to the house for trial?!
This is a housework, what kind of medicine is sold in King Chen's gourd?!
Chu Qianchen felt that Gu Jue's proposal won her heart, and echoed righteously: "The prince is right. ”
Chu Qianchen sent a husband to sing with his wife, and he looked at Amber with a sigh, and he always felt that he would often see the scene of "the prince kills people, and the princess hands the knife" in the future.
The crowd was even more shocked, and they were all speechless.
Although the actors on the stage felt that the atmosphere in the seats was a little delicate, they all turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear, and continued to sing their plays responsibly.
The trees fell and scattered, and the two elders of the Yang family who were living on the streets were desperate, so they could only temporarily live in the Chenghuang Temple in the wilderness, like beggars.
The long music was sad and sad, listening to Chu Lingxiao's ears, it was like adding fuel to the fire, and he was a little panicked in his heart.
The origin of this purse, he couldn't be clearer, it was Chu Qianchen who took it out and gave it to Aunt Jiang with his own hands.
This matter must not be caused to Jingzhao Mansion, otherwise their Chu family will really become a joke in the capital!
Chu Lingxiao struggled for a while, and finally could only take half a step back, trying to get by: "Sister Fang Caichen, this girl is ignorant, talking nonsense, making the prince laugh!" ”
"Jokes?" Gu Jue wouldn't let Chu Lingxiao pass the test so easily, "Then Master Hou might as well tell me what kind of joke it is, so that this king can also laugh." ”
Chu Lingxiao: "......"
Chu Lingxiao was so blocked by Gu Jue that he couldn't speak.
At this moment, a gentle female voice came from the direction of the stairs: "I think, just call Aunt Jiang over and ask, and see whose purse it is, so as not to ruin Aunt Jiang's reputation." ”
Shen came back from changing clothes, she had already heard what happened here, and she went up the stairs with a graceful posture, with a dignified expression, and she had the grace of the housewife of the Hou Mansion.
Shen's face was silent, and he was very angry in his heart.
She knew that Chu Lingxiao's character was despicable, but she didn't expect him to be so bad that he wanted to force Chu Qianchen to betray King Chen! Did he ever think about what kind of situation he put Chu Qianchen in!!
He hadn't thought about it.
All he thinks about is himself, he just wants to please the emperor to be promoted to the knighthood.
For this reason, unscrupulous means, for this reason, you can sell women for glory!
Chu Lingxiao's shamelessness once again refreshed Shen's bottom line, and her disgust for this man in her heart was beyond measure.
In her opinion, Chu Qianchen did the right thing, the conspiracy is not as good as the yang scheme, since the Chu family has made such a means of damage, it is better to uncover the matter in front of King Chen.
Therefore, the Shen family decided to follow Chu Qianchen's meaning and push the boat along the water.
As soon as Shen gave the order, a round-faced little maid immediately responded to the order, and wanted to go downstairs, but was stopped by Mrs. Tai sharply: "Don't go!" ”
The little maid stopped in the middle of the stairs and looked hesitantly towards the second floor.
Shen ignored Mrs. Tai's Tie Qing's face, and said again: "Go!" ”
Chu Lingxiao's face was even more ugly than Mrs. Tai's, and he shouted unhappily: "No one is allowed to leave this building!" ”
Chu Yunyi looked at Chu Lingxiao with complicated eyes.
He had personally heard his father tell his grandmother that he wanted to let Chu Qianchen die violently, and what else could they not do!
The other Chu clan people also understood a little, it should be Mrs. Tai who took a purse and told Chu Qianchen that it was Aunt Jiang's, intending to threaten Chu Qianchen with her aunt's name and let her pass on the news of King Chen's mansion.
didn't want Chu Qianchen to be threatened at all, so he turned his head and said this matter in public.
The round-faced little maid looked at Chu Lingxiao, looked at Shen, and then looked at Mrs. Tai, hesitating.
Another green-clothed maid in the lobby on the first floor of the theater bent her knees and replied, "Yes, eldest lady." ”
After she answered, she ran out of the theater quickly, and some people secretly regretted that they didn't move fast enough.
Since the Shen family married into the Hou Mansion, the old Hou Ye was in charge, and the middle feed of the Hou Mansion was handed over to her.
During this period of time, Hou Ye and the Shen family were not in harmony, and the Shen family could not help anything.
These subordinates are also looking at it.
There are also people who want to perform in front of the Shen family, but they missed today's opportunity, and they don't know when they will wait next time.
The atmosphere in the theater became more and more rigid.
Chu Qianhuang looked at Shen, bit his lower lip slightly, and stopped talking.
Chu Qianling didn't understand how things could have turned out like this, didn't her mother swear that there was a way to handle Chu Qianchen?!
Chu Qianling looked at Liu anxiously and panickedly, and Liu was also confused.
At this moment, the most upset person is still Chu Lingxiao.
He couldn't help but look at Gu Jue's face, and saw Gu Jue sit down again, and Chu Qianchen also sat down, sitting beside him.
And all the people looked at them.
Chu Qianchen saw that the tea in Gu Jue's hand had hardly moved, so he knew that this tea was not to his taste, and instructed Amber to say, "Go and pour two cups of flower tea." ”
Amber hurriedly went to make flower tea, and after a while, there was an elegant fragrance of flower tea in the air, with a little lotus fragrance and a little rose fragrance.
The two of them were sipping tea and watching the play, as if the disturbances around them could not interfere with them in the slightest.
On the stage, the second elder of the Yang family was crying and apologizing to the third daughter, regretting that he had kicked the third daughter and his son-in-law out of the house.
Chu Lingxiao felt that this scene was really dazzling, and drank tea tastelessly.
The others seemed to be watching the play, but they were actually absent-minded, and their eyes went to the outside of the theater from time to time.
No one spoke, they all waited for the situation to unfold.
After a while, the maid in green clothes just now brought Aunt Jiang over.
Aunt Jiang wore a lilac-colored embroidered folded branch green calyx plum gown, with a slender waist, weak and lovely, obviously a person in her thirties, but she looked several years younger than her actual age, as if she was still in her prime.
Mama Chen hurriedly asked people to stop the trick, so the sound of silk and bamboo suddenly stopped, and those actors also hurriedly got off the stage and almost fled.
In the theater, only the Chu family remained.
Aunt Jiang came over, her pretty face was slightly pale, like the first snow, and she blessed Chu Lingxiao, Shen and others.
Chu Qianchen put down the pastel teacup in his hand, looked at Mrs. Tai and said, "Grandmother, where is that purse?" ”
Mrs. Tai: "......"
Mama Wang looked at Mrs. Tai's face, took out the water-green lotus embroidered purse, and handed the amber to Chu Qianchen.
Chu Qianchen casually played with this purse, and the slender white jade fingers looked particularly white and delicate against the backdrop of this water-green material.
Chu Qianchen sent the purse in the direction of Aunt Jiang, looked at her straight and said, "Auntie, your purse." ”
"......" Aunt Jiang's body trembled, and her eyes widened slightly.
The corners of her eyes were slightly red, and tears faintly appeared in her eyes, both hurt and sad, and those autumn eyes seemed to hide a thousand words.
She pursed her white lips and didn't argue.
In the eyes of others, I only feel that she endures humiliation and burden, and there seems to be something hidden in this, and she is really not good at being a person between Chu Qianchen and Mrs. Tai, so she can only be silent.
Compared with Aunt Jiang's forbearance and compromise, Chu Qianchen is aggressive.
Some of the Chu clan members whispered to each other, casting disapproving glances at Chu Qianchen.
Shen frowned, she knew the best about Aunt Jiang's usual style, and she always looked like "others are at fault, she is wronged", but others may not know.
Shen was worried that Gu Jue had a bad impression of Chu Qianchen, after all, Aunt Jiang was Chu Qianchen's biological mother.
Chu Qianchen saw that Aunt Jiang didn't take the purse, so she took it back again, and sighed: "Auntie doesn't even know her purse?" ”
She slowly and methodically turned the purse through, the inner lining of which was duck yellow.
Chu Qianchen turned the side of the purse towards Aunt Jiang, pointed to the corner of the lining and said, "This is Auntie's maiden name?" ”
The others also approached curiously, only to see a word on the lining: Shan.
In this Hou Mansion, there are many people who know that Aunt Jiang's maiden name is Minshan.
The word "Shan" is obviously Minshan's "Shan".
The crowd was in an uproar again.
In other words, this purse is really Aunt Jiang's purse.
What the hell is going on?! Mrs. Tai chuckled in her heart, and realized that something was wrong.
She wanted to hold Liu accountable where she got her purse, but the current occasion was obviously inappropriate.
"......" Chu Lingxiao's eyes widened in disbelief.
How is this possible!
This purse was clearly taken out by Chu Qianchen himself, how could there be Min Shan's name on it!!
Chu Qianchen smiled and said, "If my aunt still can't recognize this purse, then I can only trouble the prince to send someone to ask Jing Zhaoyin to make a decision." ”
Gu Jue drank tea leisurely, with a smile on his eyebrows, clearly supporting Chu Qianchen.
Seeing this scene in the eyes of others, they all secretly shook their heads and disagreed.
The atmosphere has changed again.
Most people feel that Chu Qianchen is not only arrogant, but also short-sighted.
In any case, Aunt Jiang is her biological mother, and the connection between the bloodlines is unbreakable, and Aunt Jiang's reputation is a little damaged, and it is also Chu Qianchen's face that hurts.
In order to sell well in front of King Chen, Chu Qianchen did not hesitate to kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 himself.
Chu Lingxiao's face was shocked, and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Mrs. Tai looked at the face of her eldest son and clenched the string of beads in her hand.
Things have developed to this point, and they can only be fooled first, but the people present are all members of the Chu family, and later, she will be able to block the mouths of these people if she gives her grace and power again.
Mrs. Tai coughed dryly twice, and said dryly: "Sister Chen, you misunderstood, I didn't ask you to reveal any news about the palace, but I was afraid that you would be a new bride and not used to living in the palace." ”
Mrs. Tai felt that she had given Chu Qianchen the steps, and Chu Qianchen should accept it when he saw it, how to say that they were all a family.
However, Chu Qianchen didn't want them to be fooled so lightly and skillfully.
Some things are still "figured out" well, lest today be a purse, tomorrow is a handkerchief, and then then make something fan, wipe the forehead, etc., there is a way, not afraid of thieves stealing, afraid of thieves remembering, how can there be a thousand days of anti-thief truth!
"If you misunderstand, don't say it." Chu Qianchen looked at Mrs. Tai with a smile, and then turned the topic back to the purse, "Grandmother, this purse is related to the innocence of my aunt, and it must be clarified well." ”
Chu Qianchen's expression and tone were meaningful.
Mrs. Tai's face was even worse, and the loose skin on her cheeks trembled for a while.
Gu Jue raised his hand and made a gesture, and Mo Shen, who was standing on the side like a shadow, jumped directly from the window on the second floor, his body as light as a peng spreading his wings......
Many of the ladies present had never seen such a scene, and Hua Rong snorted in a gloomy voice.
Mo Shen is from King Chen's Mansion, and Chu Lingxiao can't stop him if he wants to, so he can only watch the other party fall to the ground, and strode out of the Hou Mansion.
Chu Lingxiao's first instinct was to scold Chu Qianchen and tell her to stop making trouble, but when he looked at Gu Jue's cold eyes, he didn't dare to say anything as if he was dumb.
Chu Yunmu listened to them all discussing a purse, each holding on to his own words, he listened to it in a fog, until he saw Mo Shen jump down, and suddenly his spirit was lifted, a pair of phoenix eyes flashed, and his small mouth opened slightly.
The second brother-in-law's personal guard is really powerful, it's just a chivalrous man who walks on the wall in the book!
He is the brother-in-law of the second brother-in-law, and the second brother-in-law should be able to let the "hero" teach him!
Chu Lingxiao hesitated again and again, and could only try to make peace with the mud in a good voice: "Sister Chen, they are all a family, and their own family affairs are their own, how can there be a reason for the ugliness of the family to be publicized!" ”
Chu Qianchen smiled silently.
Others only thought that the key to this matter was Aunt Jiang's reputation, but the Shen family saw it clearly, and their hearts were bright: Mrs. Tai, Chu Lingxiao and Aunt Jiang were inseparable from this matter, and there was also the Liu family, she must have also been involved.
These people are simply unscrupulous for their own benefit!
Chu Qianchen is just a tooth for a tooth.
"Ah Zhi," Mrs. Tai saw that Chu Qianchen's oil and salt did not enter, so she could only hope for the Shen family, put down her body, and said to the Shen family in a good voice, "You persuade Sister Chen." Today is the day when she returns to the door for the third time, and it is unlucky to be involved in the official. ”
Although the Shen family also felt that Mrs. Tai's words were right, if this matter was lightly exposed, wouldn't it be too cheap for them, these things they did were really disgusting and too inferior!
Just imagine, if they let their plan succeed, then how would Chu Qianchen gain a foothold in King Chen's Mansion in the future!
"Mother, Aunt Jiang's name is not allowed to be played." Shen succinctly stated his attitude, his eyes firm as a rock, unshakable.
Mrs. Tai: "......"
Aunt Jiang's forehead was slightly sweaty, her eyelashes fluttered twice, her eyes were a little fluttering, and Chu Chu looked at Chu Lingxiao pitifully.
Chu Lingxiao felt as if his heart was being caught, Aunt Jiang was his lifeblood, how could he bear to let her suffer such grievances, and resolutely said: "This purse was asked by Benhou to ask Sister Chen." ”
He was telling the truth, that day, he did open his mouth to Chu Qianchen, but he still hid half of it and didn't say anything.
The surrounding Chu clan people were in an uproar again, dumbfounded, and sighed that this scene was much more exciting than "Five Women's Birthday", with climaxes and peaks and loops.
Chu Lingxiao intended to protect Aunt Jiang, but unfortunately Chu Qianchen didn't plan to cooperate at all.
"Father, if you ask me to ask for a purse, I, as a daughter, will sew a purse with my own hands to honor my father, but ......" Chu Qianchen said innocently, "This purse is clearly the craftsmanship of the Tianxiu Workshop, you see, there is the mark of the embroidery shop on it." ”
Chu Qianchen turned the purse over again, and saw the words "Tianxiu Fang" embroidered with golden silk thread in a corner.
What Chu Qianchen meant was that Chu Lingxiao was lying, and for the sake of Aunt Jiang's honor, he did not hesitate to threaten his daughter to help him cheat in front of King Chen.
Chu Lingxiao: "......"
Chu Lingxiao was speechless again, this time not because of awe, but because of extreme qi.
Chu Qianchen, a dead girl, is simply talking nonsense with her eyes open!
At the beginning, Aunt Jiang liked this purse, so she asked Chu Qianchen to ask for it. But Chu Qianchen didn't have any filial piety, and he excused himself in every way, he couldn't look past it, so he opened his mouth, and the girl reluctantly took out the purse.
Originally, Chu Lingxiao had forgotten about this matter a long time ago.
Still a few days ago, Aunt Jiang saw that he was depressed about the marriage between Chu Qianchen and King Chen, so she took the initiative to give him an idea and took out this purse.
"The concubine has watched Hou Ye toss and turn these days and lose a lot of weight, and the concubine is really distressed by Hou Ye."
"Master Hou, the concubine has a purse of Sister Chen's here, and I don't know if I can help Master Hou......"
"Master Hou, you are Sister Chen's father, it's not good for you to take out this purse, or use the second lady's hand to avoid suspicion."
“……”
The concubine's gentle and considerate words are still in my ears.
Hey, there is probably only his Minshan in this world who loves him wholeheartedly!
Until now, she has endured it, endured the suspicion and accusations of others for herself, and has been silent.
She was so bent on his thoughts, and how could he let her face these criticisms and accusations!
Everything is because of Chu Qianchen's calamity!
Chu Lingxiao's heart was surging with anger, and wave after wave slapped in his heart.
He still can't figure out how the word "Shan" could be in the purse given by Chu Qianchen. How the hell did she do it, so viciously framing her aunt!
This girl's heart, liver, and lungs are all black.
If Gu Jue wasn't here today, Chu Lingxiao really wanted to slap Chu Qianchen and go down, and it would be best to beat this rebel girl down from the second floor with one palm.
Chu Lingxiao's eyes were gloomy, and he subconsciously clenched his fists.
The movement touched the wound on his right wrist, and a burning pain came.
Even Chu Lingxiao didn't look at it, and he knew that his wrist must have been swollen by Gu Jue.
What kind of son-in-law is this, the ancestor and the Buddha!
Chu Lingxiao understood what it meant to invite God, but it was easy to send God.
In any case, this matter must not be handed over to Jing Zhaoyin to deal with, otherwise it will be really difficult to clean up......
Chu Lingxiao felt extremely embarrassed, and Mrs. Tai was even more embarrassed.
Mrs. Tai is not a stupid person, and at this moment she has already figured out the cause and effect of the whole thing.
At this moment, when she looked at the purse in Chu Qianchen's hand, she only felt that her eyes hurt badly, and her chest was uncomfortable.
Such a big thing, the eldest son didn't tell himself in advance, and even kept himself in the dark, causing himself to lose face like a fool today!
Mrs. Tai blames Chu Lingxiao, but she is even more disgusted with Chu Qianchen, this girl even gave up her own mother for herself, and she is really a cold-blooded and ruthless white-eyed wolf.
Mrs. Tai counted Chu Lingxiao, Aunt Jiang, Liu and Chu Qianchen in her heart.
After the anger rose to the extreme, it gradually subsided, and she quickly weighed the pros and cons.
She told herself that she couldn't really wait for Jing Zhaoyin to come over, if that happened, the Hou Mansion would completely lose face and become the laughing stock of the entire capital.
Mrs. Tai quickly made a choice.
So far, only by giving up Aunt Jiang will be the smallest loss to the Hou Mansion.
After all, Aunt Jiang is just an aunt, and her name is not even on the Chu family's genealogy.
"Aunt Jiang," Mrs. Tai looked at Aunt Jiang with deep eyes, and her tone was cold and arrogant, "You are also the one who gave birth to a pair of children for the Hou Mansion, how can you ...... Hey, you're so careless that even something as private as a purse can be left casually! ”
"Mrs. Tai......" Aunt Jiang knelt down with a thud, and her slender body trembled violently like a delicate flower in the wind.
Her eyes were a little red, and there were hazy tears in her eyes, and the crystal tears were about to fall, as if she was going to cry out at any time......
She knelt there, motionless, and then stopped talking, looking so weak, so innocent, and so strong.
Chu Lingxiao just looked at her, and his heart began to hurt again.
This is the person he holds on the tip of his heart, but in order to defend him, he suffered such grievances and humiliation.
At this moment, Chu Lingxiao was angry with Mrs. Tai, she knew that his Minshan was innocent, but she splashed dirty water on her.
"Mother, how can you reverse black and white, how can this purse be Minshan's!" Chu Lingxiao retorted flatly, his eyebrows tightened.
"......" Mrs. Tai was still angry that her eldest son was hiding her own affairs, but now she was scolded by her eldest son in public, and she was so angry that she almost fell backwards.
Mama Wang quickly supported Mrs. Tai with her eyes and raised her hand to give her relief.
Mrs. Tai's chest hurt so much that it seemed that her heart had shrunk together, and she was almost so angry with Chu Lingxiao that her life was shortened for ten years. Was this rebel tricked by Jiang Minshan?!
Those Chu clan people who have nothing to do with themselves are all watching it with relish.
Things have developed to this point, and most of them have thoroughly understood the cause and effect relationship of the matter and figured it out.
I see!
This purse is really Aunt Jiang's.
She "lost" the purse, but she bit it to death and didn't dare to admit it, it seems that there is really something unknown behind the "lost" purse!
Hey, it's not that much between this man and woman, Aunt Jiang carried Chu Lingxiao behind her back and gave it to others privately, and when Mrs. Tai knew about it, she took this purse to threaten Chu Qianchen.
This must be the truth!
Thinking about it, their eyes when they looked at Aunt Jiang were stained with a little contempt.
Hey, this woman looks soft and weak, pitiful, but in fact, she really knows people and faces, but she doesn't know her heart.
Some of the women in the Chu clan secretly exchanged glances, and their hearts were amazed.
Some people even looked at Chu Lingxiao with admiration, he was stunned, right?
For the sake of a mere concubine, the dignified Yongding Marquis is simply crazy, even if he is cuckolded, he doesn't care, he is bent on defending the concubine, and he makes frequent tricks.
Should this be said to be true love, or a spoiled concubine and a wife?
The atmosphere in the theater is even more eccentric.
