Chapter 19: Minor Punishments
Xie Mingxi took the raft and glanced at it casually.
It was an invitation sent by Sheng Jinyue.
The entrance examination of Lianchi Academy is imminent, and the ladies of the capital of appropriate age are all signing up and eager to try. Sheng Jinyue set up a "literary meeting" and invited a group of noble ladies to attend the meeting.
The time is set for three days later.
In her previous life, Sheng Jinyue did not send an invitation to her, and only Xie Yunxi went alone. I was depressed for a few days.
Because in this literary meeting, the future queen Li Xiangru was also invited, and her piano skills were superb and she was in the limelight. The crowd is dimmed.
Xie Yunxi likes to be in the limelight the most, but he doesn't have the ability, and he sees Li Xiangru taking the lead, so he has no reason not to be depressed.
Li Xiangru, as the granddaughter of Li Gelao, is outstanding in talent and appearance, and won the first place in the entrance examination of Lianchi Academy a few days later. In the following years, he ranked first in the college assessment every year.
Although Xie Yunxi's reputation of "poetry and painting" is resounding, it has a fatal flaw.
Li Xiangru often stroked the piano in public, attracting praise from everyone. But Xie Yunxi never dared to write poems and paintings in public. Comparing the two, it is inferior.
"Do you want to be invited?" Congyu asked cautiously.
Xie Mingxi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Of course you should go." ”
If you want to take the Lianchi Academy, you must always meet Li Xiangru.
Even so, it doesn't hurt to meet the old enemies of the past life for a while.
……
Xie Yunxi came to Bishui Pavilion that day.
Xie Mingxi put a few cases under the window, and was writing and coloring.
There are more than 10 brushes of different sizes and thicknesses. The pigments are neatly placed in the delicate wooden box, and various pigments such as red, orange, yellow, green, vermilion, and indigo are in the wooden grid, and at a glance, there are dozens of kinds.
The scenery is best in spring, and every flower and leaf can be painted.
Before he could put down his pen, Xie Mingxi had already heard a familiar girl's voice outside the door: "Hurry up and open the door!" ”
Fu Yu puffed up his courage and said, "Second Miss, please stay." The third lady likes to be pure when she paints, and she orders the slaves and maids to keep watch outside and not let anyone in......"
There was a crisp snap on the ground, interrupting Fuyu.
Xie Yunxi's stuffy breath before had nowhere to vent, and at this time, it all happened to Fuyu: "Bastard!" is a, and she dares to stop her master. I think you're getting impatient! ”
"No more tongues, break your mouth today!"
Xie Mingxi's eyes were cold, he put down his pen and went to open the door in person.
The arrogant and disgusting face suddenly came into view.
The bright red five-finger marks on Fuyu's face were particularly dazzling.
"Third sister, the maids around you don't understand the rules! I'll teach her a lesson for you. Xie Yunxi said arrogantly and contemptuously: "You don't have to thank me." ”
Fuyu was full of grievances, but he didn't dare to argue.
This is the county lord's mansion, Xie Yunxi is the daughter-in-law, and she has the support of the county lord of Yongning. Xie Mingxi has just arrived, if he has a conflict with Xie Yunxi, he doesn't have to think about it to know who will suffer......
Moreover, Miss will never argue with the second miss for just a maid.
This slap is in vain!
……
Xie Yunxi's eyes showed a provocative and proud look.
She deliberately slapped Fu Yu in order to humiliate Xie Mingxi!
No one expected that Xie Mingxi would respond so hard and directly: "The maid next to me, I will train myself, and I don't bother you." Also, Bishui Pavilion is now my residence. In the future, if you want to enter the Blue Water Pavilion, you have to nod my head. ”
Xie Yunxi: "......"
Fuyu's heart was hot, and his eyes soon turned red.
Xie Yunxi's pretty face flickered red and white, and a pair of eyes were about to erupt sparks: "Xie Mingxi!" How dare you talk to me like that! ”
"So what?" Xie Mingxi is well versed in the way of not paying for his life, and raised the corners of his mouth with a smile: "Could it be that the second sister is going to complain to her mother again?" ”
Xie Yunxi was annoyed and angry: "You ......"
"It's not your fault, though." Xie Mingxi had a look of "I understand you" generosity: "Without the support of my mother, no one will put you in their eyes." You better go! ”
Xie Yunxi's face turned red, and he raised his hand angrily.
Fuyu was taken aback from the jade club, and each rushed forward.
The few maids behind Xie Yunxi didn't seem to see this scene, looking at the sky or the ground, looking left or right.
Something happened suddenly, and no one figured out what was going on.
"Eh!"
Xie Yunxi didn't hit Xie Mingxi, he used too much force, and the whole person staggered forward two steps. Somehow, his right leg went weak and fell heavily to the ground.
Several maids lost their faces and immediately rushed forward to help Xie Yunxi up.
Xie Yunxi was so pained that she couldn't even speak.
Xie Mingxi sighed sympathetically: "It's so dignified, why did you fall?" If you hurt your leg, won't you be absent from the Wenhui three days later? ”
This is too heart-wrenching!
Xie Yunxi glared at him with tears: "Xie Mingxi! Don't be pretentious! It was clearly your troublemaker just now! ”
Xie Mingxi looked innocent: "I stood here and didn't move." If you don't believe it, ask the maids around you! ”
Oh, yes!
The third lady did not move.
The four big girls nodded subconsciously in agreement.
Xie Yunxi couldn't say clearly. Her right leg suddenly went numb just now, and half of her body suddenly lost her strength, so she fell. However, Xie Mingxi clearly never touched her......
"Anyway, you're playing tricks!" Xie Yunxi blushed and shouted.
Xie Mingxi sighed again: "That's it!" I don't care about you in general. From the jade, the jade, come in and serve. ”
The two maids responded and followed Xie Mingxi into the house.
Boom!
The door is closed!
Xie Yunxi: "......"
……
As soon as he entered the house, Fuyu knelt down with a thud, and said with red eyes: "Thank you Miss for being angry with the slave!" ”
Xie Mingxi smiled faintly: "A little thing, where is it worth kneeling." Get up quickly. ”
Fuyu Shane got up and wiped her tears with her sleeve.
Congyu couldn't help but whisper, "Miss, what method did you use just now?" Why did the second lady fall suddenly? ”
Xie Mingxi smiled: "It's just a small skill of carving insects." ”
To put it bluntly, it's not unusual.
Before going out, she hid a tiny ball of paper in her right hand. When Xie Yunxi rushed over, she used Congyu's figure to cover it, ejected the paper ball, and hit Xie Yunxi's hemp hole.
She recognizes the acupoints very accurately, but unfortunately the wrist strength of this body is too weak now. Even if it hits the hemp hole, it can't cause any substantial damage. Only a small punishment can be made!
Xie Mingxi took out a delicate wooden box, and when he opened it, dozens of porcelain vases of different sizes were revealed. Xie Mingxi casually took out a small bottle of ointment: "Congyu, you pick some ointment and put it on your face for Fuyu." ”
Congyu carefully took the ointment.
The young lady stayed in the house for two days, and the medicinal herbs were used nine times out of ten, and then this wooden box came out.
The two of them didn't understand why the young lady would be able to dispense medicine overnight. However, if the young lady did not say anything, they would never ask too much.
A light green ointment is applied to the face. The right side of the face was slightly cool, and the redness and swelling quickly disappeared.
Fuyu was pleasantly surprised: "Miss, the slave's face doesn't hurt at all!" ”
Congyu was also very pleased: "Miss, there are no finger marks on Fuyu's face!" This ointment is so wonderful! ”
Xie Mingxi smiled disappreciatively.
The secret prescription in the palace has a natural curative effect!
"The second lady has suffered such a big loss, and she will definitely go to complain to the county lord." Congyu whispered heartlessly: "If the county lord asks, how should the young lady respond?" ”
Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled leisurely: "Don't worry, my mother will never blame me for such a 'trivial matter'." ”
