Chapter 177: The Scandal in the Palace

Zhu Rong guessed the intention of his father's words, whether he was angry or calm, it was not his usual temperament, so he only hugged his fists and bowed: "Daddy, let me think about it." ”

No matter how angry Zhu Chengqian was before, when he saw his son, he could pass anything, for fear that he would push himself too hard, so that his son would learn from Pingrui, and abandon everything and run away from home.

At the moment, Rong'er said "I don't accept it", which can be regarded as reassuring him, and he doesn't want to make a fuss between father and son for the sake of helping him, since his son is so sincere, he should give in and give him some time to calm down.

"Go back, at this hour, the old lady should rest, you don't have to go over to say goodbye." Zhu Chengqian said, "But today's family is not peaceful, your little servant will tell you what happened, tomorrow morning, go to see your grandmother, and say a few words of relief." ”

"Yes."

"I haven't been here yet, so if the old lady asks you anything, you just have to say that you don't know."

Zhu Rong promised one by one, asked his father to rest earlier, and then left the study.

He could feel that his father was looking at his back, so he didn't dare to look at the eldest lady's room, and left Xinghua Hall directly.

However, he walked through the Qingqiu Pavilion again tonight, and it wasn't until he was too late that he suddenly stopped and looked back.

The house without Fuyi has lost its meaning in his heart, and his heart has flown to Kishu with Fuyi.

Zhengming came from the front with a lantern, led the way back to the small courtyard for the son, and when he arrived at the door, he suddenly blew out the candle, and the figures of the master and servant suddenly disappeared into the night.

He whispered to his son: "Scarlet Tong will pass the message for the second girl, and I want you to meet no matter how late it is." ”

Zhu Rong responded softly: "Go back to the room first." ”

In the middle of the night, Zhu Rong, who had "fallen asleep", quietly came to the inner courtyard, just happened to have a nightmare in the movie, cried pitifully in the dream, and was patiently comforted by Yunzhi in his arms, until his sister slept soundly, he did not appear.

"How's Yingzhi?"

"I was splashed with cold water, I have some fever, I have already asked the doctor to see it, and I have also taken medicine." Yun Zhi settled his sister and pulled his brother farther away, before he said softly, "There is a sentence that Aunt Liu asked me to pass it on to you when she left, and she said that she didn't say anything and didn't know anything." ”

"Hmm."

"Brother, can you understand?"

Zhu Rong's head: "I understand, it's inconvenient to explain to you at the moment, after the matter is over, my brother will tell you what happened." ”

Yunzhi was very obedient and could tell the difference, she passed the word on, and urged her brother to go back earlier, but she couldn't help asking: "Where is the help, does my brother have a way to inquire?" ”

Zhu Rong said: "Tomorrow Fuyi will change the waterway, go ashore in three days, and then walk two days on the dry road to Kishu, I will pass a message with my friend Feige in front, they will escort along the way, if there is any news, I will tell you." ”

Yunzhi reassured his brother: "I will urge grandma to send someone to pick her up, don't worry." ”

Zhu Rong was very pleased: "You are fine, don't provoke the second uncle and aunt, the family is not peaceful, once you are caught by outsiders, you will not be able to sue us in front of the palace, they are afraid that they will be more sober." ”

Yun Zhi suddenly remembered Ping Jue, and told his brother what he saw today, Zhu Rong couldn't help but worry, his younger brother had been tortured and oppressed too much, and today he saw his biological mother so miserable, he distorted his heart from then on, and it was not strange that he had murderous thoughts.

"I'll take it to heart." Zhu Rong said, "Give me Pingjue." ”

"Don't hit my mother, mother......"

At this time, the poor third sister on the bed cried again, Yunzhi hurried back to take care of her, and when she turned back, her brother was gone.

The sister in his arms is gradually down-to-earth, but Yunzhi's heart is getting more and more empty, my brother is right, this family is always not peaceful, if you really get into trouble one day, you must be torn apart, and it is impossible to unite as one.

"Yingzhi is obedient......" she coaxed her sister, and thought of help in her heart, hoping that she would come back, hoping that she would become the new duchess, and that the family would not be in decline, and would be tossed alive and blessed.

The unquiet night finally passed, but before dawn the next day, Zhu Rong received a message from the emperor and ordered him to enter the palace quickly.

He ordered Zhengming to leave a message for his father, and when he learned that his son was called by the emperor, Zhu Chengqian couldn't help but worry, but when it came to the imperial court, he didn't have to say anything in front of his wife.

At this moment, the eldest lady sat in front of the mirror to comb her hair, and the newly sent maid was not easy to do, so she lost her temper early in the morning, and picked up the golden hairpin and tied the maid's arm.

When Zhu Chengqian saw it, he sent away the maid who was crying in fright, and took the comb himself.

"After you go out, Mother Wang will be dragged to the front hall to play the board." The eldest lady glared at her husband in the mirror, "If you don't go to see the old lady yet, don't let her think that I instigated your mother and son and didn't let you go to see her." ”

"Rong'er will explain it for me, but it's just a matter of making rules and beating a few minions, so that I can follow the group?" Zhu Chengqian said disappreciatively, "Don't take it to heart, let the second and third families laugh at you." ”

"You reconciled with your son?" The eldest lady sneered, "He is really good at making you happy, I really want to learn from him." ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "The matter of the daughter of the Yan family, the young man is strong-blooded, and it is not unusual to see a beautiful girl. How long they had known each other, and they couldn't say a few words during the day, and I guess he forgot about it after a few days when he didn't see each other. As for the Liu family, with his personality, if the Liu family really said anything to him, Rong'er would definitely not be happy in his heart, and would try his best to excuse the Liu family. At the moment, he didn't say a word, it can be seen that Liu didn't lie, she didn't dare to betray you and me. ”

The eldest lady glanced at her: "You can say whatever you want, you have always been singing white face and I singing black face, obviously you want to clean up the portal, but you asked me to be reprimanded by my mother-in-law in vain." ”

Zhu Chengqian said gently: "Mrs. Wronged, I keep my husband in mind. ”

The eldest lady pushed his hand away: "There is a sentence I said in front, the old lady dislikes me more and more, but I don't let her rub it round and flat." There can only be one person in this family, you have figured out who to choose between me and your mother, whether it is for her or for me, explain what you should say as soon as possible, don't be muddy. ”

Zhu Chengqian has already calculated in his heart, after marrying his daughter-in-law, he handed over the house to his future daughter-in-law to take care of, and at this moment he coaxed his wife and said: "Naturally, it's you, when I'm done today, I'll go to see the old lady at night and tell her not to get along with you anymore." ”

The eldest lady finally felt a little more comfortable, picked out two pairs of earrings in the jewelry box, and asked her husband to choose one, while complaining: "Yesterday she cursed me, saying that Han Zhi gave birth to my stomach and poured blood mold for eight lifetimes." ”

"The old lady can't say anything like that." Zhu Chengqian said, "You have added oil and vinegar." ”

"That's what it means, anyway." The eldest lady was angry and annoyed, and said hatefully, "When Min Cheng brings the letter of resignation next year, I will immediately say goodbye to Hanzhi, let her live the rest of her life in a beautiful way, and ask your old lady to open her eyes and take a good look." ”

But early in the morning, the old lady seemed to be deliberately unable to get along with her daughter-in-law, and she didn't wait for the old man to leave home, so she ordered someone to drag Wang's mother to the front hall to be punished.

Yesterday's beating, although it didn't hurt Wang's life, also made her so painful that she couldn't sleep all night, and now she was dragged out, crying all the way, and finally gagged firmly.

The men didn't want to see this annoyance, they bypassed the front hall and left home, poor Zhou's mother was called to watch the execution again, and watched Wang faint by the last few beats, she was so frightened that her legs were weak on the spot, and she was carried back by the little girls.

The second lady laughed at her uselessness: "This board is not on you, and you are not close to the Wang family, don't tell me, is it a cold mouth?" ”

Mother Zhou drank herbal tea and calmed down before saying: "The slave doesn't know what you and Aunt Mei are calculating, so I only advise you, if you get into trouble at home, it's still a trivial matter, but if you leave the house, go to court, or go to the palace, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't save it." ”

"What nonsense?" The second lady had a weak heart and turned away.

"Madam, you and Aunt Mei, are you calculating Princess Min?" Zhou's mother was so anxious, "The mother and daughter, can you afford to provoke them?" ”

The second lady was irritable: "It's going to be fine, I don't have to worry about Mei's affairs, besides, it's just a few rumors, what else can I do with their mother and daughter?" There are more people gossiping about her in the capital, but I am unlucky to be caught? As long as you don't shout, no one will know. ”

Just two days after Fuyi got on the boat and floated, a scandal broke out in the capital about Prince Sheng's mansion, saying that Princess Min had been unwell recently, and she didn't know where she got the wild seeds, so she secretly asked the doctor to prescribe abortion pills.

On this day, Princess Min took Yao Nian into the palace, and Yao Nian was forced to be with several cousins of the same age, and several of them were jealous that she was favored by the first emperor, although she was the lord of the county, she enjoyed the honor of a princess, above her peers. is to ask about this matter in person, satirizing Princess Min's water-based Yang Hua's indiscretions, and the bead fetus is secretly knotted, causing romantic debts.

Yao Nian is naturally not easy to bully, and threw several cousins with broken mouths into the Taiye pool, which frightened the eunuch palace maid into a dissipation of her soul, and this matter has been in front of the emperor.
