Chapter 458: Whip Marks
Su Jin's words didn't almost choke the third wife to death.
No way.
Mrs. Chi's handwriting is really beautiful.
If you want to compare it, it is far above the third wife and the lord of Nanzhang.
can't even compare to a concubine's room, which kind of lady is it.
The slap wasn't loud, but it hurt enough.
The third lady's eyes were cold.
"Since it was brought by Nanliang, why didn't you admit it just now?!" The main road of Nanzhang County.
"When my mother said this, she asked the third aunt why she didn't say a reason when she lost her purse before," Su Jin replied.
Well.
Another stick struck at the third wife.
No one can prove that what Mrs. Chi said is true.
But no one can prove that what the third lady said is true.
It's a dead end.
To put it bluntly, the county lord of Nanzhang just saw that Mrs. Chi was not pleasing to the eye and wanted to find her stubble.
Pick a hole in.
There are really a few bones in there.
The lord of Nanzhang County is to the bottom of it, and Su Jin is not good at protecting Mrs. Chi.
But if she wants to continue to punish Mrs. Chi for kneeling, it is impossible.
The two sides are at a stalemate.
Zhenbei Palace.
The prince returned from the barracks.
As soon as he got off the horse, Manager Li greeted him and said, "Lord Wang, Mrs. Chi was punished by Nanzhang County to kneel in the Peony Courtyard, and the princess also went, you can go and have a look." β
Manager Li really couldn't figure out what the princess thought.
Just because Mrs. Chi saved the princess's dog.
The princess of the world is so heartfelt to Mrs. Chi.
The princess has fellowship with people and has nothing to do with identity.
The prince's brows were knotted.
Although he didn't pamper Mrs. Chi, it was his concubine after all.
Leave it alone, definitely not.
And thenβ
The prince went to the Peony Courtyard.
Seeing a bunch of people around, the prince said unhappily, "What's wrong?" β
Zhao's mother was busy telling the prince what happened.
The county lord of Nanzhang was reluctant to talk to the prince at all.
The third wife said, "The prince came just in time, and the princess is protecting Mrs. Chi, and the sister-in-law can't take care of this matter." β
The prince looked at Su Jin.
He frowned slightly, "What about the 10,000 taels of silver tickets?" β
"I'm in the house," Su Jin replied.
"Go and fetch it," said the prince.
Su Jin didn't understand why the prince did this.
Xing'er said, "I'll get it." β
She flew out of the Peony Courtyard.
She trotted all the way back to Agarwood Pavilion and then back.
Tired and panting, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.
Two silver tickets worth five thousand taels were handed to the prince.
After reading it, the prince said, "This silver ticket is indeed Nanliang's." β
Su Jin, "....... β
Apricot," ....... β
Is this silver ticket from Nanliang?
Why didn't they see it?
But she wasn't the only one who didn't see it.
"The prince is not partial to the princess, right?!" Nanzhang County Lord said coldly.
Wang Ye glanced at her, "The silver ticket of Nanliang and the silver ticket of the Great Qi Dynasty look the same, but after all, they are two countries, how can the silver ticket be exactly the same." β
"Take a silver ticket of five thousand taels and compare it," the prince commanded.
Zhao's mother hurriedly went back to the house and got a silver ticket of 5,000 taels.
She carefully compared it, and looked at the county lord of Nanzhang with an ugly face.
"The silver ticket is really different," Zhao's mother said.
Su Jin looked at the third wife, "Now that the silver ticket is confirmed to be Nanliang's, what evidence does the third aunt have to prove that this silver ticket belongs to your mother's brother and sister-in-law?" β
The third wife's face turned red and purple, and changed.
"If you can't prove it, but even if your mother didn't figure out the facts, she punished Mrs. Chi for kneeling for a long time, listening to and believing partially, and the handling was unfair and damaging to her prestige," Su Jin smiled.
Su Jin's words once again proved that the county lord of Nanzhang could not be the housewife.
This is the hatred in the heart of the lord of Nanzhang.
Su Jin pierced it in front of the prince like this, and the face of the county lord of Nanzhang was as ugly as it was.
The prince looked at the lord of Nanzhang.
The third lady said, "What I said is true! β
"Mrs. Chi has a concubine, and it is not normal for her to have 10,000 taels of silver tickets on her."
The prince looked at Su Jindao, "How does the princess think this matter should be handled?" β
Su Jin tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Since it is true that the third aunt's maiden brother and sister-in-law lost 10,000 taels of silver tickets, and it is sure that they were lost in the palace, why don't you let your mother help the third aunt's maiden brother and sister-in-law find the 10,000 taels?" β
"No one knew about this before, and it didn't affect the reputation of the palace, but now it's spreading, and if you don't help people find the silver ticket, it will inevitably make outsiders think that the palace has picked up something and doesn't return it, and it is a loss of virtue."
Third Wife," ......!!! β
Lord of Nanzhang, "......!!! β
The corners of the prince's mouth hooked.
Chen'er's daughter-in-law is really smart.
They dug the pit themselves.
They had to jump on their own.
"Then find out the 10,000 taels of silver tickets, if you can't find them within ten days, the affairs of the palace will be handed over to the princess in the future!" The prince made the final decision.
The lord of Nanzhang didn't almost bite it with a mouthful of silver teeth.
The prince still has something to do, so he turned around and left.
As she left, her eyes flashed over Mrs. Chi's face.
Mrs. Chi didn't dare to look him in the eye.
Seem......
Mrs. Chi didn't look at him squarely?
This realization made the prince unhappy.
He just happened to help him.
Even if she couldn't speak, a salute could be regarded as a thank-you, but she didn't thank him, and even avoided him.
The prince put aside the unhappiness that was not enough to affect his mood, and strode away.
Mrs. Su Jin Fuchi said, "I'll help you go back." β
Apricot helps magpie.
Although the kneeling time is not long, the bluestone ground is very hot.
Both had knee burns.
Apricot not only took the silver ticket, but she also brought ointment.
I have to say that this maid is smart and careful.
"It's so stuffy in the house," Apricot said.
"I'll go to the ice cellar and beat people later, and the ice cubes from Qingqiu Garden will be sent together with the previous ones," Su Jin said.
"Mm-hmm, the slave will go later," Apricot said cheerfully.
Su Jin asked Mrs. Chi to lift her skirt, and she helped with the medicine.
Mrs. Chi was reluctant.
The magpie said, "Madame has scars on her body, and she doesn't want to be seen by you, the princess." β
"Scarred?" Su Jin was stunned.
"Madame has many whip marks on her."
Su Jin's face turned cold.
When Mrs. Chi was stunned, Su Jin lifted the hem of her skirt to her knees.
There are quite a few whip marks on the calves.
Apricot gasped.
"How ......."
"Why are there so many whip marks?!"
"Who hit so hard?!"
Mrs. Chi shook her head.
The magpie choked up, "Madame said it doesn't hurt." β
Can this be something that doesn't hurt?
It doesn't hurt anymore, but when I get beaten.
Apricot is the one who has been whipped.
Although he was whipped by himself and the girl, he was accidentally drawn, and it hurt for a long time.
She didn't have a scar, she didn't see blood.
These scars have not gone away to this day, and they must have been beaten all over their bodies at the time.
They always thought that Mrs. Chi only had a wound on her face, but they didn't expect that she also had it on her body.
Even on the calves, not to mention other parts.
Apricot nose is sour.
Su Jin sympathized with Mrs. Chi and became more and more curious.
A man with so many whip marks on his body and 10,000 taels of silver tickets.
This discordant contrast β
Su Jin couldn't help but be curious about Mrs. Chi's identity.
