Chapter 30: Washed Away
"The Shen family is dying, you are too presumptuous, relying on the prince of the world to like you, you can do whatever you want, can you ignore the people of the Hou Mansion? It seems that the lord of this county doesn't teach you a lesson, and you don't know who you are? Come on, pull the place, and take twenty responsibilities. ”
When Mama Feng heard this, her eyes were full of pride.
However, when the two stout grandmothers came in and wanted to pull her, they reached out to stop her, and Mama Feng exclaimed, "Look, she is going to beat someone again." ”
The two stout mothers were so frightened that they didn't dare to step forward.
"It's the other way around, the Shen family is dying, you dare to commit murder in front of the county lord's mother, do you still have dignity in your eyes?" Mama Feng lay on the shelf and tried to raise her head, "County Lord Niangniang, she is stubborn, this kind of person has broken the rules of the house several times, and she can't be tolerated." The slave and maid saw that the twenty boards were too few, so they should have beaten a hundred boards and thrown them out of the house...... In order to save your majesty. ”
Xiao Xiao snorted coldly in her heart, she wouldn't have pursued it if she wasn't a demon today, but today she just hit the muzzle of the gun.
Randomly, she pretended to be at a loss, her eyebrows and eyes suddenly reddened, and said: "County lord Niangniang, please listen to the slave maid's explanation, if the slave maid finishes explaining, you want to fight or kill, and the slave and maid will definitely not cheat." ”
"You say."
"Niangniang, in the middle of the night last night, the slave maid was washing clothes, and I heard Mama Feng arguing with someone, and then they fought, the slave maid wanted to wash the clothes and go back to sleep quickly, but who knew that they somehow deliberately threw the clothes on the ground and stepped on them fiercely, Mama Feng told me, that is the county lord Niangniang, your favorite clothes, the slave and maid want to protect, so they pushed a few times with them, and did not fight...... If the county lord doesn't believe it, she can summon Hegui and the slaves and maids of the laundry bureau to ask. ”
I added a sentence:
"Last night, he Gui went to the laundry bureau to find a slave and saw it with his own eyes."
The county lord Niangniang glanced at Mama Feng, Mama Feng wailed, and explained: "Niangniang, it was her hand, not only me, but also a few injured, she also cut off Rufeng's hand directly, ruthless......"
The county lord's mother is empty today, so she wants to be the master of the whole family.
She then summoned Hegui and asked him what happened last night. He Gui said: "Last night, the prince had something to look for the young girl, so he ordered his subordinates to go down to find someone, and when he went down, he saw Mama Feng scuffling with a few people, I don't know what happened." ”
"Is that undeceased?"
"I'm doing laundry."
The county lord frowned slightly, and asked again: "What time did you go?" ”
"A moment in the middle of the night. The prince sent people to look for the dead several times, but he didn't see it. ”
The county lord's mother was a little unhappy in her heart, her housekeeper has always been merciful, but Mama Feng actually ordered someone to work in the middle of the night? If this spreads, it will be said that she is abusive. Leave people behind.
"Sorry, you listened to them last night about what they were arguing about."
"It seems that a servant girl accidentally washed her clothes and committed suicide." The slave maid listened to what they said that it was not suicide, as if she was abused by Mama Feng. When she died, someone wanted to expose Mama Feng, and Mama Feng wanted to kill people and kill people, so they started fighting......"
The county lord slapped the table violently, and her phoenix eyes stared at Mama Feng who was lying on the ground, Mama Feng wanted to refute, but she didn't trace and sprinkled white behind her. powder, Mama Feng immediately coughed, and her throat seemed to be blocked, and she couldn't say anything.
However, the county lord didn't believe in Hegui's words, she summoned two people from the laundry bureau, and asked casually: "Did you see what happened to Mama Feng last night?" ”
"Back to the county lord's mother, I saw it."
"Because of what?"
"Because the slave doesn't know, the slave just faintly heard Sister Rufeng say that Ruzhi's death ......"
The county lord didn't know who Ruzhi was, and Mama Ran hurriedly reminded: "Some time ago, there was a slave in the backyard who accidentally fell into the water and drowned, she is Ruzhi." ”
"Wasn't it an accident?"
Mama Ran shook her head and said, "The slave maid also learned recently, it was not an accident. The county lord was angry at this time, but she didn't ask about it at this time, she asked another girl.
"What about you?"
The first time I saw the county lord's mother, the maid Rushi was a little hesitant, and said bluntly:
"The slave didn't see anything......"
The county lord looked at this person and was directly impatient, glanced at Mama Ran, and Mama Ran asked softly: "Don't be afraid, say whatever you see, the county lord is merciful, as long as you don't make mistakes, the county lord will not punish you." ”
Rushi said cautiously: "This morning, I heard Mama Feng instruct someone to trample on your favorite clothes of the county lord, saying that it was framed for ......."
Mama Ran shook her head after hearing this, Mama Feng was afraid that she would really not be able to turn over this time.
Then the county lord was furious and directly ordered someone to pull Mama Feng down and drive her out of the mansion.
Today's farce has just subsided.
But at this moment in the palace.
It was rumored that many shops in Kyoto were selling golden cicada cup poison, and Wang Tiehammer couldn't sit still, and the last dynasty mentioned the matter of Qi Guogong.
"Your Majesty, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with the Duke of Qi Guogong, it must be framed by a traitor, please let the emperor know about it."
Wei Guogong directly denied it: "Even if there is a golden cicada cup poison in the capital, it does not mean that Qi Guogong is not guilty." Besides, the sin concubine Qi Meng wrote a handwritten letter before she died. There is no escaping ......"
"Who knows if that handwritten book is true or not, maybe it was forced to write it."
"Lord Wang is messing around, and there is nothing he can do in front of the conclusive evidence."
"What evidence is conclusive, it is obviously a false accusation ......"
"Lord Wang is used to fighting, I'm afraid I don't know what the law is, right?"
......
So there was a quarrel in the court.
However, Wei Guogong and Tang Shuwen, the imperial historian, made a look.
Tang Shuwen knelt down and suddenly burst into tears, and said, "Ask the emperor to be the master of the subordinates." ”
Lu Chenyi took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, Xiao Yu of the Long-term Houfu acted recklessly, and took advantage of his position to put the Tang family's merchant family in prison, so he ignored the law of Daliang, and asked the emperor to punish him." ”
The emperor glanced at Xiao Bao'er and saw that he didn't move, and his heart was inexplicably irritable.
Is this Xiao Baoer reliable or not?
Xiao Yu heard someone accuse him, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, the Tang family's private treasury has hundreds of catties of golden cicada cup poison, this poison is the secret medicine of Western Xia, and the Tang family's move is smuggling. ”
"Doctor Yushi, I'm afraid you don't know the power of this poison, but whoever is poisoned by this poison is pulled by the poisoner, and you can do whatever you want."
"At the beginning, the saint was poisoned by the Qi family, and the emperor explicitly ordered this drug to be forbidden, but the Tang family still has it, and the amount is huge, so the minister suspects that this person has other intentions, maybe the emperor was poisoned at the beginning, and it has something to do with the Tang family."
Lu Chenyi said: "Recently, it has been rumored that many merchants in the capital have this poison, is it possible that Senior Vice Officer Xiao can arrest everyone?" If it causes turmoil in the capital, can Vice General Xiao be responsible? ”
"Lord Lu obstructed me, is he afraid that I will find out that you have an affair with the Tang family?"
"Lord Tang, please pay attention to your wording. This official is upright, and you don't need to slander it. ”
"Slander? Then let's see if this is slanderous or not. ”
After a night of interrogation, Xiao Yu really knocked something out of the Tang family.
"Your Majesty, here is a list of ministers, which is evidence of the Tang family's collusion with certain officials."
The emperor ordered Gonggong Sheng to go down and take the things over.
When I opened it, I found that it was written with the names of nearly one-third of the people in the court, and how many things were sent each year, and the geometry of what was sent was listed.
The one who sent the most was the Wei family.
The emperor is the most taboo about collusion between officials and businessmen, and now the evidence is conclusive, the evidence is conclusive..... However, there are too many officials involved, as well as Wei Guogong......
The emperor handed over the things to Gonggong Sheng, who understood, threw the booklet at the candle and burned it directly.
Xiao Yu was puzzled, but he was about to question the emperor, when the Duke of Wei led the ministers to kneel down and shouted the emperor's fame.
Xiao Yu didn't dare to speak out inexplicably.
"Vice General Xiao cut first and then played, ignoring the laws of the Great Liang, and raided the Tang family, this matter is over, but he is dedicated to eliminating harm to the country, so he will be exempted from punishment."
Xiao Yu reluctantly said, "Yes." ”
Lu Chenyi was about to go down, but then heard the emperor ask: "Lord Lu, I heard that Lord Lu's house suddenly started a fire in the sky, but is it in the way?" ”
"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, it's okay."
"That's good, such a natural disaster has happened to Lord Lu, Lord Lu should pay more attention in the future."
Lu Chenyi was a little strange when she heard the emperor's words, and Xiao Bao'er smiled slightly.
"The secretary still has something to report."
Xiao Bao'er stepped forward unhurriedly and said, "The minister has something to ask for." ”
"Please."
"The minister originally wanted to sue the Duke of Wei for selling his official position, but the emperor burned the booklet, so this evidence is insufficient."
"Xiao Bao'er, don't talk nonsense."
