Chapter 336: Self-inflicted humiliation
"The slave maid is from the palace of Concubine Hui." The little eunuch hurriedly added.
"It turned out to be Concubine Hui." Jiang Banxia smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his tone fluctuated: "Say hello to Concubine Hui for me." β
After saying that, she turned around and left, not giving the little eunuch any chance to interject.
Cao Huifei she knew, she had heard of her reputation when she first came to Kyoto, she was young, beautiful, and had a family background that ordinary people could not reach, even Jiang Guifei, who dominated the inner palace, had to plant her head in her hands.
She didn't have time to chat with Concubine Cao Hui.
"Commander Jiang, don't go!" The little eunuch was in a hurry, and waited for an hour in the heavy snow, and when the time came, how could he have a strange temper! If you can't stop people, how can Concubine Hui deal with her!
The little eunuch trotted in front of Jiang Banxia: "You wait! You wait..."
When he evened out his breath, he looked at Jiang Banxia's smiling eyes, and those who were familiar with Jiang Banxia knew that this was a precursor to her unhappiness.
"Niangniang is waiting in front of Merlin, please move, my lordβ" The little eunuch said worriedly.
Jiang Banxia let go of the hand on the leather belt and joked with the Jinyi guard who was accompanying him: "It seems that we can't go anymore." β
The concubines of the inner palace had no chance to meet the ministers at all, this Concubine Cao Hui was so bold that she asked the palace people to stop her on the road, she wanted to see what could be done.
Plum blossoms wait for snow, the colder the more colorful, a few blooming red plums hang on the branches, very bright, Jiang Banxia subconsciously looked forward, and saw a faint moon white in the depths of the plum forest.
"You wait here." Jiang Banxia squinted and instructed.
The accompanying brocade guards hugged their fists and said yes.
She walked into the plum forest with a lot of snow, the snow is deep and the road is short, the plum branches hang low, the faint cold fragrance passes by, lingering on the tip of the nose for a long time can not be dispersed, this is a good place, Jiang Banxia thought.
"The minister has seen Concubine Hui." Jiang Banxia withdrew his arms and cupped his fists and saluted, and he couldn't make any mistakes from his posture to his expression.
The moon-white slowly turned around, revealing a haggard face, her eyes fluttered when she raised her eyes, and her melancholy expression was not like what a girl of her age should have.
She is really young, at least younger than her, Jiang Banxia said in his heart that Emperor Qingwen was more than enough to be the grandfather of Cao Huifei.
"Commander Jiang is polite." Cao Huifei looked Jiang Banxia up and down quietly, she felt that this young conductor was a little too 'beautiful', and his small face was even more noticeable than Cao Yu's dog eunuch.
"Since Concubine Hui has already met the minister, there is nothing to do, and the minister will retire." Jiang Banxia returned his hand and clenched his fists again.
She had no feelings for Cao Huifei, and she didn't want to provoke this woman, so she only showed a respectful look on her face.
"Wait." Cao Huifei raised her hand to block Jiang Banxia: "Commander Jiang doesn't want to hear what this palace has to say?" β
Jiang Banxia looked directly at Concubine Cao Hui and made a look of deferential listening: "Please also ask Concubine Hui to instruct." β
With such a perfunctory attitude, Cao Huifei was displeased, she pinched her palm and sneered: "Commander Jiang is worthy of being an important minister, and his temperament is noble, and he is neither humble nor arrogant when he sees this palace, and he can't even kneel." "Free Chinese
Jiang Banxia smiled: "Niangniang praised, the minister's father is just a small hundred households, and he can't afford to be a 'heavy minister', let alone noble temperament, and kneel down - you, also, no, worth." β
These four words were uttered by her word by word, and it was particularly piercing to hear Cao Huifei's ears.
"Commander Jiang has a good mouth." Cao Huifei suppressed the anger in her heart and said with a calm face: "You really don't know your life experience? In the second year of Qingwen, Pang..."
Jiang Banxia suddenly raised her voice and interrupted: "Concubine Hui, some words are going to be fateful. β
"Looks like you do." Cao Huifei said with bad intentions: "Twenty years have passed, and the fate of many people has changed, falling into the quagmire, and harboring hatred, which one are you?" β
As she spoke, Jiang Banxia's shoulders accumulated a little snow, and her eyes fell on Cao Huifei's overly young face, then she lowered her eyes again, and laughed in a low voice: "Niangniang has said it, twenty years have passed, whether it is hatred or hatred should have fallen a long time ago, why bother too much." β
"You really don't care! You really don't care about the glory that is supposed to be yours? Cao Huifei wanted to see through Jiang Banxia, she asked: "The unjust case in the second year of Qingwen, how many families have died, your father's official residence was a product, and you should have taken the imperial examination to enter the official career and be loved, but now you can only be that person's dog, are you willing?" β
Jiang Banxia raised her eyelids and said coldly: "Where did you hear these words?" β
Cao Huifei raised her chin lightly: "Where did you hear from this palace that Commander Jiang can't take care of it, right?" β
"I advise Niangniang that these nonsense will rot in your stomach, don't take it out again and embarrass people."
"You! You! Give a shameless face, this palace wants to expose you to the emperor! Cao Huifei's angry eyes were on fire: "Expose you as the remnant of the year!" β
She looked at Concubine Cao Hui in a mess, and said indifferently: "Even if Niangniang goes to say and expose, you can do whatever you want, as long as Niangniang is happy, the ministers are sitting upright, just framing indiscriminately, I'm afraid it's not good for Niangniang..."
In a few words, Cao Huifei was speechless by Jiang Banxia, she was used to following her father in the border town since she was a child, and after entering the palace, she had to be taken care of by Emperor Qingwen, except for Jiang Guifei, who was difficult to deal with, she had never suffered anything, and it was the first time she had encountered Jiang Banxia like this.
"The minister advises the mother to think twice about doing things, and it is not good to pass it on to the ministers in private." Jiang Banxia pointed to the brocade guard waiting outside Merlin: "This time, the minister will hide it for the mother, and don't have it again next time." β
Cao Huifei pinched the embroidered handkerchief, she had to fight for Jiangxia, a few days ago she went home to save her relatives, she heard the conversation between her father and Mr. Zhuzhou, the emperor is going to die, if the new emperor is not the prince, their Cao family will be finished!
Thinking that Cao Huifei didn't do anything, she softened her body and fell straight into Jiang Banxia's arms, men are all lustful, she didn't believe that someone was Yanagi Hui.
Suddenly, Jiang Banxia subconsciously raised her hand to grab Cao Huifei's arm, and pulled the person up forcefully, but she was not allowed to get close.
Jiang Banxia's hand was extremely strong, and Cao Hui's arm was about to be broken, and she cried out bitterly: "Let go of me!" β
"Let go, the mother is going to stand firm." Jiang Banxia smiled and then suddenly let go, suddenly losing support, and Cao Huifei's center of gravity was unstable and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Jiang Banxia looked at her condescendingly, like looking at a dead person, and her indifferent eyes were very terrifying.
"You... Don't come here! You take one step further and I... I'll just call someone! The short period of covering her face made her afraid of Jiang Banxia from the bottom of her heart.
"The road is slippery in the snow, although the scenery of Merlin is good, don't be greedy for fun next time and get lost." Jiang Banxia broke the branches decorated with red plums, and threw them on Cao Huifei's face: "Otherwise, it will really be embarrassing." β
Cao Huifei, who had never been treated like this, trembled with anger, tears hit her eyes and were very aggrieved, she shouted viciously: "Give shameless dog things!" Follow Cao Alcohol's dog eunuch, what good end can it be! β
However, Jiang Banxia had already gone away, and her shouting was purely self-inflicted.
