046 The mirror is broken
"Yo, the road is narrow."
Fang Xing deliberately hid, wandering back and forth on several side streets, and met Xiao Nan head-on, the little beggar before, the two had indeed not seen each other for a long time since the epidemic.
"Hmph."
Xiao Nan was carrying a small burden, don't turn his head and ignore Fang Xing, Fang Xing leaned over to look at his burden, this child, where are you going?
"Look at what? It's my own. ”
"I didn't say you stole it."
"Cut, that person is not a good person, the reason why he didn't make a mistake that day was because he was at the gate of Juxian Tower, and there were many nobles there that he didn't dare."
"That's right."
"Otherwise, what."
The two of them fought in vain, and the nursery rhyme was stunned when he found Fang Xing, and he wanted to make a move but found that the other party was a child. I've never seen this side of Fang Xing...
"I won't quarrel with you, I will become the most powerful person in the rivers and lakes in the future, don't scold me."
"Okay."
Fang Xing smiled, and the two watched Xiao Nan walk away before returning to Shangshu Mansion slowly. Nursery rhyme nodded at her, and everything went according to plan.
The emperor thought that it would take an afternoon for Gonggong Gao to go back and forth, after all, he could ride a horse when he went, but when he came back, he was carried by someone on foot, but before everyone left the queen mother's place, others had already returned, kneeling in front of the emperor sweating profusely.
"Slaves deserve death!"
"What's wrong? But something went wrong on the way? ”
The prince asked worriedly, thinking that if this was the case, he could go and ask for another side for the emperor, and it would be okay to spend silver, but if the emperor punished the high father-in-law, he could say good things on the side...
"Say it quickly."
The emperor looked cold and put the teacup on the table.
"Back to the emperor, the minions arrived at the Shangshu Mansion, Lord Ye Shangshu was not in the mansion on business, and the servants ordered the housekeeper to lead the way to get the mirror, who knows.. I saw the third lady of Ye Mansion, holding a whip and waving it a few times, and put the glass.. Shattered. ”
"What?"
The emperor slapped his palm on the table, so frightened that everyone hurriedly knelt on the ground, and the queen mother sat opposite without saying a word, as if everything here was like the glass of the fish tank, which was transparent.
"The emperor is angry, the minions deserve death, and they can only come back empty-handed to restore their lives."
"My father is angry, and it's no wonder that the people below him."
The prince knelt down and opened his mouth to persuade, and the emperor's frowning brows spread out, waving his hand at the people in the place, and everyone got up timidly.
"Why is it that third lady again.."
"How?"
Bai Yuxiu has a character that must be compared, and he is angry that an expensive mirror has been ruined, how can he let Fang wake up and lose it in vain..
"Last time, Fang Xing's yard caught fire, that Miss Ye San, in front of a room of people who were higher than her, called the people around Fang Xing one by one, and the little girl who helped the arson between her words, or Fang Xing was afraid of Ye Shangshu's face, and didn't let the little girl say the person behind her in public, and afterwards I heard that the third lady was grounded.. But two or three days of work and fun in the streets.."
"Is there such a thing?"
The emperor tilted his head and glared at Gonggong Gao, and his father-in-law only said half of what he said at that time, after all, he didn't hear the identification of the little girl with his own ears, how could he insist that Ye Ruxuan did it.
"The emperor is angry, the servants are within the walls of this palace, and I don't know what will happen next."
Gonggong Gao was so frightened that he knelt on the ground again, making the emperor laugh and wave his hand at him, after all, how could he really annoy him if he had been with the emperor for most of his life.
"Prince, you were the most involved at that time, but so?"
The prince's face stiffened when he was asked, it was obvious that a heroic thing to save the beauty was rumored to be very ugly, and now he is embarrassed when he thinks about it.
"Back to my father, it is true that as my brother said, but the ministers don't know about the grounding, but this woman dares to be so bold and destroy the mirror presented to her father, and she should indeed be severely punished."
"What a Ye Shangshu, I didn't hear my words at all, and that lady used a whip? I want to come before I wake up.. Gao Li, go and pass the decree, and order Su Zhan to send two guards from the forbidden army to Ye Mansion, reward the concubine with twenty boards, and be executed before the gate of Shangshu Mansion, and let her personally send the silver paid by the mirror to the Glass Pavilion within three days, if anyone dares to help in Zhongxiang, Ye Shangshu will leave three daughters in the future. ”
"The minion takes orders."
The emperor's anger disappeared inexplicably, this kind of execution was carried out by the forbidden army, Ye Ruxuan didn't say that she would get up within three days, she couldn't get up for three months, and she would fall ill for the rest of her life, the emperor was relieving Fang Xing and the Su family, since Ye Shangshu dared to fool the king, the emperor could also let Ye Shangshu understand that the monarch could not be offended.
Fang Xing and Tong Yao each held a bag of dried sweet potatoes and returned to Shangshu Mansion, Fang Xing is not so particular about this person, he enters from the front door when he is close to the main door, and enters from the back door when he is close to the back door. Identity is not calculated by entering and exiting the front and back doors, and she is just deceiving herself.
The housekeeper seemed to be familiar with Fang Xing's routine, so he waited at the back door and said yes. Ye Shangshu has an urgent matter, a big emergency.
"The tired housekeeper told me that my skirt has not been cut yet, and my wardrobe is full of this kind of coarse linen material on my body, so I will not go."
"This.."
The housekeeper was in a dilemma, he didn't dare to drag Fang wake up directly, and he didn't want to whisper good words, so after thinking for a while, he ran back to complain.
Before Fang Xing and the nursery rhyme walked to the yard, Aunt Li chased after her, knelt in front of Fang Xing with tears on her face, and begged her to go.
"Something is wrong with my father?"
The main hall was full of people again, just like when Fang Xing just came back, but Ye Ruxuan's arrogance was completely gone, and she sat in the tail seat. Ye Shangshu's politeness to her also wore out over time.
"What do you mean by something? If you don't come over quickly, do you want your father to invite you? ”
"It seems that there is indeed something, father, please tell me."
Fang Xing said and sat down on the chair, holding a dried sweet potato in his hand and biting it, Ye Shangshu shook his head in disappointment, suppressing all his tired and anxious mood.
"The mirror offered by the Glass Pavilion was damaged by Ruxuan, you hurry up and go back and prepare a new one, so that your father can send it to the palace as soon as possible."
"Okay."
Everyone in the room looked at Fang Xing in surprise, especially Ye Ruyan, she didn't expect Fang Xing to be so easy to speak, how long had it been since this Ye Ruxuan's provocation, and Fang Xing had forgotten it?
"Father.. Will the emperor blame .."
Ye Ruxuan was really scared, trembling in the chair, Ye Shangshu sighed when he heard it, thinking about how he gave birth to so many unconscious girls, the carefully cultivated Ye Ruyan couldn't even catch the prince, and the most beloved Ye Ruxuan always caused trouble for him, and Fang Xing, after coming back, it was indeed good, but the better she was, the more unpleasant Ye Shangshu looked at.
"No.. You are a woman who has not left the cabinet, and the emperor will not be punished heavily. ”
The people in the room nodded in agreement when they heard this, but Aunt Wang scolded Fang Xing in her heart for not being angry, and she didn't seize this opportunity to clean up Ye Ruxuan.
"Then the daughter went back to the Glass Pavilion?"
"Okay."
Ye Shangshu nodded again and again, Fang Xing smiled at Ye Ruxuan, ate dried sweet potatoes and walked out, as soon as he walked out of the hall door, the housekeeper ran past her with an arrow, and Ye Shangshu in the hall hurriedly followed.
There were many people gathered at the gate of Shangshu Mansion to watch the excitement, and they were guessing what a good thing it was, but there were sharp-eyed people who saw the wooden canes held by the two guards.
"The lower officials and their families, see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."
Nursery rhyme hid on the side of the door with two bags of dried sweet potatoes, and there were Aunt Li and others next to her, Shangshu Mansion now has no housewife, and Aunt Wang has the right to be a housekeeper, so she can kneel out.
"Spread the saint to the mouth, the third lady of Shangshu Mansion Ye Ruxuan, disrespectful to the Son of Heaven, disrespectful to the elders, repeatedly willful and reckless in the mansion, now dare to wantonly damage the holy mirror, give the court staff twenty, executed by the forbidden army guards, and ordered within three days, the required silver taels of the damaged things will be compensated back to the glass pavilion.."
Gao Gonggong said in front, and everyone around him was shocked, what kind of thing was it that caused the saint to be so angry? Ye Shangshu was stunned in place and didn't react, but Fang Xing on the side stabbed him with his arm before he hurriedly kowtowed to receive the order.
"What? The emperor has been wronged, how dare the courtiers be like this, there is really a bedbug, the courtiers for..."
"Fang Xing.."
Ye Shangshu looked at Ye Ruxuan, who was struggling in the hands of the two guards, he couldn't bear it, his eyes looked at Fang Xing for help, Fang Xing nodded, and wanted her to help intercede, so that he could say.
"Grandpa Gao.."
"Ye Shangshu, the Holy Servant reminds you, if someone pleads for mercy at this time, or someone reports within three days that the third lady has not personally come to the Glass Pavilion to compensate... You'll only have three daughters in your life. ”
Ye Shangshu immediately took a step back in fright, Aunt Wang helped him, she and Fang Xing thought the same thing at this time, that is, she wanted to intercede for Ye Ruxuan very much.
"You dare to touch Miss Ben, my father is Lord Shangshu, let it go! I didn't break it.."
Gao Gonggong listened to Ye Ruxuan's presumptuous words, and smiled disdainfully at Ye Shangshu on his face, if these words reached the emperor's ears, the next time the person lying on the torture bench may be him Ye Shangshu.
"Shut her up."
Ye Shangshu suddenly said angrily, the housekeeper hurriedly took the sweat towel of the doorkeeper and stuffed it into Ye Ruxuan's mouth, the nursery rhyme came out at this time, eating dried sweet potatoes and enjoying the show, which is a bed bug, it is obviously a few flying stinky tea-winged bugs, which were bounced to Ye Ruxuan's face by her, otherwise how could she be angry? Who made Ye Ruxuan like to bring a whip to play prestige. However, the glass in the glass pavilion is of excellent quality, and it is not something she can break with a few whips!
Ye Ruxuan roared, fainted to death in two hits, and then was woken up again, these two guards definitely didn't use all their strength, probably because they were afraid of beating people to death, but they never showed mercy to their subordinates, and every blow was real. Blood was dripping from the torture bench downward, Fang Xing looked back at Aunt Li, the tears were real, the distress was real, but he always felt that something was missing? What is it?
At the end of the execution, the surrounding people didn't feel pity for Ye Ruxuan at all, after all, she was no less domineering in Yan'an City than the little girl at the beginning, and the housekeeper looked at Ye Shangshu's eyes and dispersed the onlookers.
"Miss Fang, let the slave say more, you have to remember to send another mirror into the palace in the past two days, it won't be long."
"Father-in-law Xie Gao reminded."
Ye Shangshu's face was cloudy and nodded to Gonggong Gao, and he followed the shelf that carried Ye Ruxuan back to the house, Fang Xing watched Gonggong Gao get into the carriage, took out something from his sleeve and handed it over.
"I also want my father to bring it when he sends the mirror, this is a glass snuff box, which is used to wake up, and my father-in-law must have used it up last time."
"Hey, this little thing about the old slave, I didn't expect Miss Fang to still care about it."
"It's very meager, don't mind my father-in-law, go slow on the road."
Fang Xing let go of his body and nodded to Gao Gonggong, Gao Gonggong smiled and closed the car curtain, if Fang Xing gave him the precious, he couldn't ask for it, after all, what he did and what he received, it was impossible for the emperor not to know.
"Miss.."
Aunt Lan called Fang Xing with slightly red circles in her eyes behind her, and Fang Xing walked back to her in two or three steps and grabbed her arm.
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm just worried about Miss."
Aunt Lan Xu thought of the events of two years ago, or earlier, those experiences of Fang Xing being bullied by Ye Ruxuan, but Aunt Lan didn't come out to see her jokes, but waited for everyone to finish before coming out to find Fang Xing.
And Fang Xing didn't mean to look at the joke, because Ye Ruxuan could prepare to leave.
