Chapter Seventy-Five: Doing Evil Ends in Bitter Fruits
Zhu Gaochi didn't want to blame Tan Yurong in public, thinking to himself, what are you doing at this time? Don't talk when you come! At this time, it was difficult to ride a tiger and it was impossible for him not to speak, "Concubine Tan, let me ask you... Did you ask Xiyue to dig the dirt mountain? ”
This is an indisputable fact, Tan Yurong had no choice but to nod and say: "Back to the prince, it was arranged by the concubine."
"Why did you do that?"
"Prince, the concubine is according to your wishes! Didn't you say that Mrs. Zhang was wild and untamable, so she had to take a good look at her temperament...? ”
"Nonsense!" Zhu Gaochi was annoyed, and his fat palm slapped heavily on the table, "Just let people dig dirt mountains and scrub toilets?" She is my lady after all, how can she do such a vulgar thing? How will you let her face the next person in the future? ”
He was so angry that he scolded in his heart: I secretly think that this Concubine Tan is really a stupid person, if you admit your mistake at this time, I will help you exonerate you one or two, and punish you with no light or heavy, how did you do it on my head? This is much worse than Zhang Xiyue.
Tan Yurong shouldn't have said it again at this time, maybe he was reprimanded in front of everyone and felt that he was too faceless, so he actually said in a ghostly manner: "Isn't it just a lady!" The prince is guilty of being so atmospheric...? ”
"Bastard!" At this time, Zhu Gaochi was really angry, and shouted: "There is no distinction between high and low, do you think of yourself too noblely?" Isn't anyone else as good as you?
It's not the first time that I've misinterpreted my meaning at will, and it's not the first time that I've been saving face for you, but you've intensified it? If you're wrong, you won't admit it?
Xi Yue is young but has repeatedly endured humiliation and forbearance with you, how polite and virtuous is she, the last time she was obviously reasonable, but she took the initiative to admit her mistakes, how can it be like you unreasonably stirring up three points to shirk responsibility? I think it's time for you to pull it off..."
"The prince..."Tan Yurong hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The concubine is also doing this for the stability of the house..."
"At this time, I am still arguing, if the instability in the house is also caused by you... Go! You also go and taste the taste of digging the earth mountain, and you have to dig as much as they dig. ”
"The prince..."Tan Yurong never thought that this would be the result, so he had no choice but to say: "The concubine is the imperial concubine, and she is a weak woman...?"
"There is no difference between the imperial concubine and the lady!" Zhu Gao's anger still didn't subside, "Isn't Xiyue a weak woman?" Giving you a day... By the way, you are not allowed to ask others to help, only two maids are allowed! ”
Tan Yurong saw that Zhu Gaochi's eyes widened, and he didn't dare to argue anymore, so he had to agree to stand up aggrievedly.
Li Yan'er held back a smile on the side, Zhang Xiyue thought about it secretly and said, "Lord Prince, since Sister Tan knows that she is wrong, forget it!" The work of digging up the mountain is really not done by a woman's family. ”
"Look at the people, and they are still interceding for you at this time!" Zhu Gaochi glared at Tan Yurong fiercely, "But she didn't realize her mistake, so she had to dig the dirt mountain... Go ahead! What are you doing here? ”
Tan Yurong was angry, ashamed and aggrieved, so he had to agree to quit.
Zhu Gaochi turned to Zhang Xiyue and asked, "Madam, are you satisfied with this treatment?"
"Prince, it's just that I'm a little tired..."Zhang Xiyue said: "There's no need to let Sister Tan be punished!"
"No, I never asked about the affairs of the house before, but it made them messy, and I had to let them remember it for a long time this time, and Concubine Li..." ”
Zhang Xiyue covered her mouth and smiled: "I walked after Sister Tan just now, maybe I was afraid that the prince would talk about her."
"There is no etiquette, and I don't know how to say anything when I leave."
"She said it, but her voice was quieter, and the prince was talking, so she didn't hear it." Zhang Xiyue secretly thought that this Li Yan'er was clever! Expecting Zhu Gaochi to say that she slipped away early.
"Let's go..."Zhu Gaochi glanced at the empty sand pot, stood up with difficulty and said: "I have to go to the court, if the lady lacks something, ask Zhou Puxin for it, forgive him for not daring to make things difficult for you again."
"Emperor Xie..." Zhang Xiyue and Yin Xiaotao sent him out of the building.
Zhu Gaochi led people away, and the two of them couldn't help but high-five when they returned to the building, Zhang Xiyue suddenly found that Fang Zhongyue was not there, "What about Yuan Gongzi?" ”
"It seems that I didn't see him when I came back... I went looking for it, where did I go? As soon as Yin Xiaotao turned around, he saw Fang Zhongyue walking in from outside, with two scrolls under his armpits, "What are you doing?" ”
Fang Zhongyue smiled, "They took my painting away, I'm going to get it back." ”
Zhang Xiyue asked curiously: "Who took it... Are those two paintings really treasures? ”
"Of course it's a baby, it was taken by Mr. Zhou. Miss, this time we were victorious, and the gardeners, grooms, and handymen we met along the way all smiled and nodded at me, but they were not the same as before. ”
Zhang Xiyue was also very happy, "This time Yuan Gongzi's credit accounts for more than half, and in a few days I will tell the prince to help you find a career... You're so smart and capable of doing great things. ”
Fang Zhongyu saluted and said: "Miss has won the award, I don't have any credit for it, it is your crab roe lion head that is good."
"That's right," Yin Xiaotao interjected, "The prince ate all the three lion heads, and there was not even a little soup left."
"I'll make it for you if you want to eat it... Yo, I'm still hungry! Finally turned things around, Zhang Xiyue was in a particularly good mood, "Come, let's have some wine and celebrate." ”
The sumptuous breakfast from the kitchen was still there, although it was a little cold, it couldn't stop their enthusiasm, Fang Zhongyue took the painting back to his room, and the three of them poured wine and ate and drank.
During the banquet, he naturally wanted to talk about Tan Yurong, and Yin Xiaotao took a sip fiercely, "Yes!" This is what she deserves, let her also taste the scorching sun and take off a layer of her skin! ”
"Don't say that," Zhang Xiyue interrupted her and said: "Actually, it's not easy for her, although she is a concubine, she didn't give birth to a son and a half daughter, and she is worried that others will rob her of her position and live tiringly."
Fang Zhongyue suddenly said, "Miss, let me say... We'll help her dig in a minute. ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Xiyue and the others looked at him in surprise, Yin Xiaotao frowned and asked, "You drank too much, right?" What about nonsense? Tan Yurong harmed us so much, but you want to help her work? ”
"yes? What do you think..."Zhang Xiyue also didn't understand, "Do you want me to have a good relationship with her, so as not to be a mortal enemy?" ”
Fang Zhongyue shook his head and said, "After these things, Concubine Tan Zheng has long regarded Miss as a mortal enemy, and it is impossible for the relationship to ease."
"And you're going to help her? Did you drink too much or do you have a fever? ”
Fang Zhongyue smiled bitterly at Yin Xiaotao, "I'm fine, thank you Sister Xiaotao for your concern... Miss, when you go to help Concubine Tan Zheng at this time, everyone in the mansion has to praise you for being a large number of adults, benevolent and virtuous, and you will win the heart of the prince even more. ”
"Oh..."Zhang Xiyue suddenly realized, and couldn't help but stretch out her thumb, "Yuan Gongzi, I really admire you." ”
"Miss has won the prize..."Fang Zhongyue was halfway through his words, and a cough suddenly sounded outside...
