Chapter 37: The Slave and the Maid
Shen Zhao flew the pigeon to pass the book, and the inner ghost of the Zhenguo Mansion was found.
Liu was unwilling to be small forever, and after finding out that she was pregnant, she did not make a noise, while quietly protecting the fetus, while thinking about how to get rid of Shen Zhao in order to hit the Wang family.
Only by defeating the Wang family can she have a chance to give birth to the child safely, and then the mother will sit on the position of wife with her son.
A few days ago, the Liu family went out and met Mi He, the maid of the Pingjin Hou Mansion, and Mi He asked the Liu family to find a personal thing for Shen Zhao, which is best for people to see at a glance that it is Shen Zhao's thing.
The Liu family happened to see Shen Zhao's money bag, so he copied one and handed it to Mi He. She didn't ask Mi He what the use of Shen Zhao's personal belongings was, but she knew in her heart that the Pingjin Marquis Mansion was going to deal with Shen Zhao.
The Liu family and Mi He are distant cousins, but I am afraid that if they fail to bring down the Wang family and Shen Zhao this time, they will continue to do harm in the future......
"How can people's hearts be so bad! I don't know what Mrs. Shen will do with her. ”
Zhao Youling hated the Liu family for framing Shen Zhao in vain, and thought that the Liu family was pregnant, and was worried that Mrs. Shen would send the Liu family to the government for questioning. It is certainly a serious crime to collude with others to provide false testimony to frame others.
Mu Hanchi shook his head and said that Mrs. Shen would not alarm the government in this matter.
If the Liu family is sent to the official to expose that the Pingjin Hou designed this incident, it will cause an uproar in the court, and the final result may be that the Pingjin Hou Mansion will put all the blame on Mi He, saying that the Liu family and Mi He murdered Shen Zhao.
Without real evidence, it is difficult to put the Pingjin Marquis in a bad way, but it will affect the Zhenguo Mansion, maybe the emperor will be angry and the Zhenguo Mansion will be uneasy after governing the Zhenguo Mansion strictly, and then accuse the Wang family of being incompetent in managing the family and depriving her of the title of Mrs. Yipin.
"If the emperor is angry again, can't this emperor use his brain to think about right and wrong?"
After hearing more and more such words, Zhao Youling became more and more opinionated about the emperor of the current dynasty.
Last time, she and Mu Hanchi entered the palace to thank the emperor for his marriage, and after kneeling three times and knocking nine times through two doors, the emperor said lightly, "Let's be flat" and sent her and Mu Hanchi away. Since the emperor has no intention of loving Mu Hanchi, he doesn't know why he wants to give Mu Hanchi a marriage.
The content of the Book of Heaven appeared in Zhao Youling's mind again, could it be that the Book of Heaven guided the selection of Ming Jun, and it was about to change the dynasty and rebel? Rebellion is justified!
“……”
"The emperor is not benevolent, and the prince is even worse."
Zhao Youling talked about what the prince Zhao Yan did in Xunfang Pavilion, and suddenly realized that the prince was the real murderer who killed Zheng'er's father and brother, and she hoped that Mu Hanchi could restore the truth of the matter and administer justice to the people.
Mu Hanchi looked at Zhao Youling in surprise, he didn't expect Zhao Youling to be so bold as a woman.
Dali Temple found two mountain bandits who killed and robbed, identified them as the real culprits of the Zheng'er father and brother case, and hastily closed the case. It should also be the emperor's intention, and he doesn't want to delve into the truth behind this case. ”
Mu Hanchi fell into deep thought. There are too many truths in this world that implicate interests and are covered up by the powerful.
The horse farm on the outskirts of the city was destroyed by the Pingjin Hou, and this matter can only be endured temporarily, and before the strength to deal with the Pingjin Hou, it is the best policy to endure.
The inner ghost of the Zhenguo Mansion has been found out, and the inner ghost of the Huaiwang Mansion must also be found out as soon as possible.
Mu Hanchi carefully checked the doors and windows of Lingyun Pavilion again, making sure that it was impossible for outsiders to come in. Then there are only the four little maids and Xiangxiu Xiangqiao who can freely enter and leave Lingyun Pavilion.
The four little maids who came with Zhao Youling to marry knelt on the ground in the verandah to listen to Xiangxiu's questioning, and they didn't dare to look up at Xiangxiu one by one.
At this dusk, Xiangxiu's figure was reflected on the wall, obliquely slender and slightly deformed. She folded her arms in her arms, smiled a little, and spoke with a hissing end.
A little maid didn't dare to look up at Xiangxiu, she stared at Xiangxiu's shadow on the wall, feeling that the figure looked like a snake.
"Tell me, who colluded with outsiders to steal the short knife of the prince. Don't even sit, don't even want to live! ”
Xiangxiu suddenly shook off her hand and pointed at the maids.
Frightened, the four maids trembled and begged for mercy.
"The slaves and maids have only arrived at the Huaiwang Mansion, and the various doors and courtyards are not familiar with it, and they have not taken half a step out of the Huaiwang Mansion so far, how dare they collude with outsiders......"
"Oh, so you can talk."
The one who spoke was staring at the shadow of Xiangxiu on the wall, the little girl with her hair hanging down, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Zhao Youling. Xiangxiu had already seen that she was not pleasing to the eye, and after speaking, she stepped forward and flew up at the little girl.
Xiangxiu kicked out with twelve points of strength, and immediately kicked the little girl to the ground and cried in pain.
"Shut up! A girl with sharp teeth like you should be sold to the Qinglou and tortured by the guests. You get up for me and kneel well. ”
The little girl cried so much that she couldn't move for a while with her hands on her chest.
Others are crying with ugly faces, but the little girl's crying appearance is even more beautiful and pitiful, Xiangxiu has a burst of jealousy in her heart, and stepped forward to pick up the back collar of the little girl to pull her to kneel.
"Sister Xiangxiu let Jin Se go, Jin Se is still sick, she didn't mean to talk to make you angry......"
The little maid Sile who was kneeling next to Jinse couldn't stand it anymore, so she stepped forward and grabbed Xiangxiu's wrist, wanting to ask Xiangxiu's subordinates to show mercy.
"Jinse? Hmph, you deserve to be called Jinse? I'll make you scream...... And you! ”
Xiangxiu kicked Jinse a few times and kicked at Sile. At this time, someone came from the stone bridge and sent a message to Xiangxiu from afar, and Mrs. Gao asked Xiangxiu to go to the front hall to ask questions.
Xiangxiu put down her rolled up sleeves and tidied up her skirt again, letting the four little maids stay obediently in Lingyun Pavilion, and she walked quickly towards the stone bridge.
At this time, it should be Mrs. Gao's meal time, and there are kitchen ladies waiting, what do she tell me to ask?
Xiangxiu walked to the door of the main hall with a full stomach full of suspicion, looked in, and found that Mu Tingchen, Mu Hanchi and Zhao Youling were also sitting in the hall, and couldn't help but be taken aback.
In the past three years, Mu Tingchen has only lived in Youyuan, what kind of wind blew him to the main hall in the front yard!
"Get on your knees!"
Mrs. Gao shouted at Xiangxiu, who walked in.
Xiangxiu was so shocked that she was smart. She has been by Mrs. Gao's side since she was a child, and it is the first time she has seen Mrs. Gao be so angry with her.
Xiangxiu threw herself on her knees.
"What did the slave do wrong?"
Xiangxiu flattened her mouth aggrievedly.
"What did you do that you didn't know?"
Mrs. Gao was seriously ill, she seemed a little out of breath when she spoke loudly, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead, she grabbed the armrest of the chair with both hands, and looked down at Xiangxiu in front of her.
Before this, how much Mrs. Gao trusted and relied on Xiangxiu, if it weren't for the recent discovery that Xiangxiu's mother's family often came to Xiangxiu to ask for money and things, she intended to let Xiangxiu manage the Huaiwang Mansion in the future.
Mrs. Gao knew in her heart that no matter which noble girl her nephew married as the princess, it would be better for her to take over the housekeeping and family affairs in the future.
Mrs. Gao also has to plan for her future, after all, she is not the real mistress of Huai Wangfu, no matter how good her brother and nephew are to her, she is allowed to die in Huai Wangfu, and there are times when she can't take care of the back house.
"Slave, I really don't know ......"
Xiangxiu glanced up at Mrs. Gao in panic, and then looked at Zhao Youling.
Zhao Youling stared at Xiangxiu's changing face, her eyes shining like a cold star. Xiangxiu chuckled in her heart, could it be that the poisoning of Mrs. Gao was discovered?
