Chapter 060: Extremely sad
British Mansion.
The British duchess leaned on the couch, looked at Zhang Chi haggardly, and asked, "Why did you come back suddenly?" ”
In the past few days, the family has been busy with her fainting in pain and dealing with the beginning and end of the "overboard" incident, and she has not bothered to delve into the most critical part of this game.
Zhang Chi blamed himself guiltily and responded: "There was a little soldier who came to pass the word, saying that my mother had a life, and specially sent the mother-in-law in the house to pass the word and let me go home immediately." I heard the little soldier say that the mother-in-law who spread the word was surnamed Chu, so I didn't suspect him and rushed back immediately.
"When I got home, I was greeted by a mother-in-law at the door, saying that Princess Shouyang Luan was here in person, and my mother was personally accompanied.
"Who knew that before I arrived at the lotus pond, I was intercepted by my sister-in-law, told me the truth, and asked me to come to the main courtyard to see my mother, so as not to collide with the princess Luan......"
Mother Chu happened to come over with the medicinal soup, and when she heard this, she was so shocked that she knocked over the medicine bowl, knelt on the ground with a "plop", grabbed the ground with her head, and hurriedly defended: "Please Madame, the slave maid has never done this betrayal of the master!" ”
The English duchess sighed, "What are you doing, I don't blame you." It's just a surname, who can't pretend to be? ”
After that, seeing that Chu's mother was still kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to prove her innocence, the British duchess instructed Zhang Chi: "Brother Chi, don't help Chu's mother up quickly." ”
Zhang Chi hurriedly went to help Chu's mother get up, and at the signal of the British duchess, he moved the bench and asked her to sit down.
"How dare a slave sit?" Mother Chu excused herself, tears flowed down her face, and she raised her hand and swore an oath, "The slave maid is loyal to her wife, and she can show the sun and the moon." If this matter is really done by the slave maid, then the slave and maid will not be able to die well, and there will be no peace under the nine springs, and they will not be able to live beyond their lives! ”
She really didn't expect that the person she really loved would use her completely for the sake of her future......
"What are you doing!" The English duchess hurriedly said, "How could I ever say I didn't believe you?" You need to make such a heavy oath! ”
Although she was indeed dissatisfied with Mother Chu because of the incident that Ming Yan made a big fuss last time, she did not suspect that Mother Chu and Ming Yan had joined forces to do this game.
On the same day, Princess Shouyang and a group of nobles were in the mansion to enjoy the laurel play, if Zhang Chi was allowed to rush into the lotus pond to save people, not only Mingyi's reputation was not guaranteed, the British government lost a big face, even Princess Shouyang and a group of nobles will inevitably lose face, and I don't know how much chaos it will cause!
Although Chu's mother is biased, she is not so confused.
"Brother Chi, don't hurry up and help Chu's mother sit down." The British Duchess pressed her forehead and commanded.
Chu's mother pushed again and again, and Fang Ken sat down.
"Let's not talk about who this messenger is, if Brother Chi, your reckless temperament shouldn't be, sooner or later something big will happen!" The British Duchess frowned and admonished, "Think about it yourself, when did I send someone to the camp to deliver a message to you, didn't I see you in person?" If there is a real urgency, will the messenger not see your people, but only ask the soldiers of the garrison to deliver the message?
"Besides, after you arrived at the house, since you knew that Princess Shouyang and all the nobles were enjoying the laurels in the back garden, you should take the initiative to avoid it, and let someone pass on the word to me first, so as not to collide with the guests. But it's good that you went directly to the lotus pond with someone!
"You're seventeen years old this year, so I don't need to tell you more about these words. But see for yourself, if it weren't for Miss Huang Er who happened to pass near the lotus pond and happened to be flooded, and Miss Xu helped to restrain Zheng Yuyan, wouldn't you fall into someone's trap?
At that time, Princess Shouyang and a group of nobles were attracted, and Sister Yan'er naturally got her wish fulfilled, but what should I do with the face lost by the British government? How to plead guilty if you collide with the princess? How to compensate for offending the female relatives of the family?
"Haven't you thought about it one by one?"
Zhang Chi was ashamed, knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Mother blames it, it's all children who are stupid, and they almost made a big mistake, and ask their mother to punish them heavily!" ”
"It's already happened, what's the use of punishing you now?" The English duchess sighed, "I want you to remember today's lesson, and think twice before you act next time, lest you be calculated like this time!" ”
"Remember, child!" Zhang Chi kowtowed.
The English duchess knelt with him for a few moments before she spoke to get him up.
It hurts to remember clearly.
"Although this matter is over, since there is such a slave who betrays the master in the house, it must be thoroughly investigated and severely punished. Mother Chu, this matter will be left to you. Brother Chi assisted. The Duchess commanded.
"Yes, ma'am, the slave and maid take the order." Chu's mother burst into tears.
Since Madame is willing to hand over this matter to her to investigate, it can be seen that she is still willing to believe her!
She will never live up to her wife's trust, and she will definitely find out the villain behind her!
"The child obeys." Zhang Chi also bowed in response.
If he hadn't noticed it for a while and fell into Mingyan's trap, his mother would not have been so angry that she would have been sick to this day.
The British Duchess nodded and said, "Go ahead, the sooner this matter is investigated, the better." Well, let's start with the mother-in-law who greeted Brother Chi at the gate of the house! ”
"Yes."
Chu's mother and Zhang Chi promised and withdrew.
The British duchess looked at the swaying bead curtain and couldn't help but redden.
The child who had been pampered in the palm of his hand for more than ten years turned out to be so cold, for his own glory and wealth, calculating her son, calculating the entire British government, and facing the pain and helplessness of her aunt, who loved her deeply, she was cold and ruthless.
If it weren't for Brother Chi who happened to be in the house, he rushed out in time when he heard that something was wrong, and was busy rescuing and asking for medical treatment, I am afraid that she would have reported to Lord Yama a long time ago......
This child, why didn't she learn anything about her mother's kindness and friendliness, but instead learned the meanness and kindness of the Ming family?
Tears rolled down and quickly wet the pillow.
……
When the British government thoroughly investigated, in the Qianqing Palace, Princess Shouyang finally caught the emperor when she had time, and she kept talking about "brother Huang" and "Brother Huang" non-stop.
Qi Yu listened to the trivial sound of chirping in his ears, and only felt a headache.
Finally blocked Princess Shouyang's mouth with a snack, Qi Yu said helplessly: "Shouyang, although there is no sutra feast today, I still have a lot of books to read, if you are bored, why don't you go to find your mother and talk?" ”
"I don't!" Princess Shouyang raised her chin and pouted dissatisfied, "The imperial brother also knows that the queen mother has always been strict, it is rare that she went to Ciqing Palace today, I can come to Qianqing Palace to visit the imperial brother with peace of mind, so as not to be unhappy!" ”
Qi Yu deeply agrees with this.
It's rare that Empress Dowager Li went to Ciqing Palace, and there is no banquet today, so he also wants to be at ease for a while.
"Why don't I ask the palace people to accompany you to the Imperial Garden?" Qi Yu was kind and tempting, "It just so happens that the early laurels in the Gui Garden are blooming at this time, and it is not bad for you to fold a few branches and insert bottles." ”
"Isn't the royal brother confused? I just went to the British Mansion a few days ago to enjoy the morning laurel! Princess Shouyang said dissatisfied.
Just a few osmanthus trees, what fresh tricks can you see?
