Chapter 115: No, the tea is poisonous
"Ouch, don't cry when you sleep, the old woman can't see the little girl crying, Xin'er, help wipe it." The Queen Mother's face was distressed, and when she saw Ruan Mianmian's gentle and aggrieved face, she couldn't wait to come down and wipe her tears for her.
Jin Jiaoyang sat aside, and also turned his head sideways to look expressionlessly, only to see Ruan Mianmian's eyes were red and his face was wrinkled, it was indeed a pitiful and cute appearance, but he clearly remembered that she ate half of the plate of gold silk rolls in one go in the last second, and her face was leisurely and happy, but she didn't look unhappy, and she couldn't help but sigh, it seems that what her mother said at home on weekdays is not unreasonable, women are annoying, and she should be less polluted.
Thinking like this, Jin Jiaoyang withdrew his eyes, and his body involuntarily sat upright.
"Your Majesty Mingjian, the concubine really doesn't know about this, otherwise even if she fights for this life, she won't let Xunxin do such a thing that violates discipline and rebellion!" Mrs. Shilang saw that Ruan Mianmian was pitiful and the Queen Mother was so useful, and she was afraid that Ruan Mianmian would delay the progress of the matter in this way, so she immediately raised her voice and cried, although she was proving her innocence, but she also vaguely confirmed the charge of the eldest young master Wei Xunxin.
"Pass on Wei Xunxin, take Zhou Hu down first and continue to detain him." The emperor gave a brief order, and the jailer stepped forward to take Zhou Hu down again.
"Your Majesty, the turbid heart is to send the concubine, so at this moment, you should still be waiting at the palace gate, Your Majesty's people just go to the palace gate to pass it on, and you don't have to go to the palace again." Mrs. Shilang added such an "empathetic" sentence at this moment, and the faces of everyone in Yipinxiang became even better.
"Tsk, it's not familiar." Jiang Xinyue pinched a piece of honey cake with her slender jade hand, as if she sighed that the honey cake was not steamed, and then let go and threw it into the small plate, and the others also smiled knowingly and did not speak.
Mrs. Shilang knew that she was mocking herself for supporting Ruan Mianmian, but this was not the time to speak quickly, even if she had a good relationship with Wei Xunxin, she couldn't say that she knew about it, so her face was red and white for a while, and she didn't speak.
After all, Wei Xunxin was at the gate of the palace, so he was brought in in only a quarter of an hour, and he seemed to be a little weak-hearted, pinching his sleeves and wiping his sweat, and he kept silent after saluting everyone present, and didn't ask why he was called in.
"I'm tired of asking the same question, Jingshu, you can say it for me." The emperor is a little bored at the moment, every time someone comes today, he has to say the same thing again, now it has been three or four times, when is it the head, this case is also very boring, if it doesn't involve Yipinxiang and the imperial examination, he will definitely not deal with it himself.
"Yes," Jiang Xinyue helped her forehead, and felt a little tired, and summarized it concisely with half-open eyelids: "Master Wei, that's the case, today someone falsely accused Yi Pinxiang and Jin Jiaoyang of colluding in the same stream to commit favoritism and malpractice, and in the end it was proved that Chen Cang was secretly out of nothing, and the whistleblower confessed that the instigator behind it was a lady from the Duke of Wei, and now the spearhead is pointed at you, the ultimate beneficiary, do you have anything to say?" ”
The more Duke Wei listened, the more weak his heart became, and he couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Squire who was kneeling on the ground with him, his eyes were full of a hint of asking for help, and at first glance, he was not assertive and timid, which proved that this matter was definitely related to this Squire Lady.
"Master Wei, don't look left and right, answer the question." Jiang Xinyue urged impatiently.
"It's... That's right, it's none of my business, it's not my doing. Wei Xun blushed and held back for a while, then held back this sentence.
Ruan Mianmian took the fan from his hand and shook it, shaking his head with some sighs, what kind of gene is this Wei State Mansion, a stupid person in the family, no wonder it will be ruled by Mrs. Shilang. Wei Xunxin said this, isn't it equivalent to indirectly admitting it.
"Wei Gongzi, when most people hear that this kind of thing implicates themselves, they will say that they don't know about it, why are you not surprised at all, but directly say that you didn't do it, if you say that you didn't do it, you know who did it?" Jiang Xinyue saw the move and asked the question in her heart for Ruan Mianmian.
"This..."Wei Xunxin was grabbed by someone for the first time he spoke, and the whole person collapsed and cried, and directly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty spare your life!" I'm also temporary, I didn't expect things to turn out like this, it's not that I'm going to frame a pinxiang! ”
"Oh? So what did you do? "The emperor is interested, this matter is finally going to be closed, and he also wants to take Concubine Lan back to the dormitory to make up for a nap, and he is really tired after a day's trial.
"I, I took someone to knock out the out-of-town candidate who was originally named Zhou Hu and was restrained in the inn, took his customs clearance document and identity card, and called the person who went to find the nurse around me, pretending to be Zhou Hu for the exam, and then framing the popular candidate this time, just to improve the chance of getting a little bit of the test, I didn't expect him to be so stupid to frame Yipinxiang!" Wei Xunxin cried profusely, sobbing and flowing, he was simply frightened, he had no backbone at all, and Jin Jiaoyang, who was watching it, frowned and looked disgusted.
"Alas! You child, even though your parents have been punished and injured, you shouldn't let them slander Yipinxiang! The two county lords can afford to be provoked by ordinary people like us, don't quibble, quickly confess your guilt, maybe Your Majesty can spare you once in the face of the former grandfather, don't cry. Mrs. Shilang pretended to be distressed, and persuaded her bitterly, but blocked Wei Xunxin's eyes looking at her for help.
"Okay, okay, don't argue, since you have confessed your guilt, and let's see that he is a first-time offender at a young age, the results of this examination will be invalidated, and you will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination in the future, and you will not be allowed to inherit the title, and you will be imprisoned for half a year. Do you think that's appropriate? The emperor lightly put down a few words, turned his head to look at Yi Pinxiang and Jin Jiaoyang, after all, they are bitter masters, and they still have to make them feel appropriate.
"Your Majesty is discerning." Ruan Mianmian and Jin Jiaoyang spoke at the same time, and it would be a bit mean to disagree at this time, and it would blow the emperor's face, so they all knew that it was just a formality, and they must not say more. In front of the emperor, people who have too much desire tend to live shortly.
Wei Xunxin cried and was dragged down, and the whole thing came to an end on the bright side, and everyone didn't stay long, and immediately retired. Before leaving, the emperor also specially told Ruan Mianmian to go to the Hundred Beasts Garden to see the peacocks, and the queen mother also sent them a lot of pastries, delicacies and daily gadgets, and several maids were full of them.
Walking out of the palace of the Queen Mother, Yipinxiang and everyone almost walked on the path of the imperial garden with Jin Jiaoyang. Ruan Mianmian saw that Jin Jiaoyang was still expressionless, as if someone present owed him a few hundred dollars, so he deliberately opened his mouth to talk: "Master Jin, the bad guys have all bowed to the law, why are you still unhappy?" ”
"The county lord is too worried, I'm usually like this, and I'm not unhappy." Jin Jiaoyang replied coldly, not squinting.
"Jin Gongzi, do you have any brothers and sisters in your family?" Ruan Mianmian asked.
"There are a few younger siblings." Jin Jiaoyang frowned.
"Wow, then your father must have several concubines, do your younger siblings look like you?"
"Not really."
"Tsk, that's a pity, do you want to have a good time?"
"Not available."
"No, the scientific expedition is over, what else can you do, date other young ladies?" Ruan Mianmian's big eyes shone brightly, bursting with the light of gossip.
Jin Jiaoyang didn't even want to speak, he suddenly accelerated his pace with his long legs, and walked forward as if he was about to run, and there was no one at the intersection as soon as he slipped away.
"It's a pity, I still want to be close to him, I didn't expect him to be so boring, how similar to our cannon." Ruan Mianmian deflated, and he held a small fan and fanned it for a while, rolling his eyes a lot.
"Hahahaha, laugh at me, how do you talk to people, it's almost fake, it's true that it's deliberately disgusting, you look at Jin Jiaoyang's expression just now, I'm afraid that he will suddenly rush up and hit you." Liu Xin'er is also hot, she let go of laughter at the moment, and the steps on her head shook with it, making a series of crisp sounds.
"It's just to see that he has a bad temper and rectify it for him, if our cannon really has such an unreasonable family, we can't be bullied by him.". Ruan Mianmian raised his head and smiled proudly.
When they left the palace gate, they saw that the two carriages of Yipinxiang were already waiting, and the maids quickly stepped forward to put down the rewards in their hands, and after ordering the things in the carriage for the masters, they stood outside to welcome them into the carriage.
It's just that everyone restrained their smiles, because there was another carriage parked next to Yipinxiang's carriage, which was hung with the logo of the Duke of Wei, and the person standing in front of the carriage was waiting for Yingying, who was the lady of the Duke of Wei, she had already come out first, and she was standing aside at the moment with a red peony skirt that was very eye-catching.
Seeing Mu Ruqing coming out with everyone, Mrs. Shilang greeted her warmly, with a smile on her face, she didn't seem to be able to see the disgrace of Fang Cai in the main hall at all, and even the eldest young master in her own house was not worth making her sad if he went to prison and ruined his whole life.
"Guys are out? The concubine is waiting here, hoping to talk to you, I don't know if you are willing to sit for a while in the Tianxiang Tea House on East Street? Mrs. Squire's expression was very sincere, and she wanted to say something, and it seemed that there were some things that were inconvenient to say here.
"No, I'm afraid the tea is poisonous." Ruan Mianmian was a little indifferent, and choked back directly, she was very disgusted with such a harmful smiling tiger, and naturally the other people of Yipinxiang refused to surrender their identities to deal with her, and other people's family affairs couldn't be managed, but it was still okay to dodge.
