Chapter 8 Filthy Inner House
Chapter 8: The Filthy House
"Is everything arranged outside?" Zong Zhengmi also asked again.
"Don't worry, the slave's brother has always been safe, and he will never let down the concubine's good plan." Ye Mingzhu comforted.
"Don't worry, if this thing is done, let this concubine get rid of that lowly person, and she will not treat your brothers and sisters badly." Zong Zhengmi also said with a cold light, "You go to the backyard now and watch, before the banquet is over, Mei Xiaofang must not wake up and leave first." ”
"She won't wake up, she won't drink a drop of that bowl of medicine." Ye Mingzhu laughed, "But the slave maid does have to go to the kitchen, and the side concubine's red snow fruit should also be steamed." Sister Hu Nu has a lot of things to do today, and she has already ordered the slave maid to come and wait for the side concubine. ”
Zong Zhengmi also nodded, and Ye Mingzhu quietly went out of the house again and returned to the backyard.
The red snow fruit is an extremely rare fruit, the color is red, the flesh is like snow sand, and it is the size of a fist, so it gets its name. It is a specialty of the Snow Mountain of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and a fruit costs two taels of silver, and there is no way to buy it. This kind of fruit is a holy product for beauty, and Zong Zhengmi also maintains it so well, just because he eats a red snow fruit every night.
This kind of fruit is very easy to preserve, the skin is hard, Zong Zhengmi also buys hundreds of pieces every three months through her relationship with the Northern Wei Dynasty merchants, washes the peel when eating, digs a small hole at the top, puts in the fine rock sugar, steam the upper half of the incense for a long time, and then digs the flesh from the top with a small silver spoon.
Regardless of whether Murong Ke glanced at her flower and moon appearance, she had insisted on using this beauty product for so many years, and she was always unrelenting to Murong Ke in her heart. The so-called woman is the one who pleases herself, even if it is empty in the end, and it costs Zhao Bifan to become an old woman, and she still maintains her beauty like a flower, she is much more comfortable in her heart. She is not happy herself, but as long as others are more unhappy, she can feel satisfied.
However, it's a consensus that things at the entrance are easy to be manipulated, so Zong Zheng Yaya's kitchen is very strict, and there are confidants guarding it for many years, and at this time, because of the design of the female gentleman, it is inconvenient to keep people in the backyard, and the doors and windows of the kitchen are locked with big irons.
When Ye Mingzhu arrived in the backyard, she first glanced at Shi Zhongyu, and saw her falling asleep on the bed, as if she was very hot, she couldn't help rolling over, and couldn't help but show a sinister smile, and then went to the kitchen.
She took out the key on her waist to open the door lock, vaguely felt that something seemed wrong, but she couldn't see anything, she couldn't help but laugh at herself for being suspicious, and didn't think much about it at the moment, took out a red snow fruit from the bamboo cage, carefully checked it, and made sure that there was no problem, so she washed it, put it into a pastel white porcelain bowl, and put it on the cage drawer to steam.
When she had done this, she walked out of the kitchen, walked around the garden wall to the remote passageway, stood in front of a vase-shaped window, and whispered, "Brother, are you there?" ”
Before the words fell, Ye Mingzhi's face flashed outside the window, and he said in the same low voice, "Things are going well in the yard?" ”
"It's a bit troublesome, but the lady is very vigilant and refuses to obey. However, the side concubine went out in person, how could the surname Mei not accept this big face? Ye Mingzhu paused, "Brother is almost in time to pick up someone, right?" ”
"It's not time yet, and if it's too early, it'll be suspicious." Ye Mingzhi hummed and said.
"I really don't understand why it's so troublesome, just lure Mei Xiaofang out and throw it to the homeless beggars outside?" Ye Mingzhu disagreed, "It's not worth it to work hard, just for a slut." ”
"You don't understand, of course it's easy to make a move, don't get involved in yourself, or even if you get involved, you can get out safely, and in the end you can get angry with others." Ye Ming said, "You girl just don't want to do things, otherwise she won't ......."
"My brother has endured it for many years, and he has thought about everything again and again, but what is the result?" Ye Mingzhu sneered.
"You and I are unlucky, I've met a father who doesn't have a little human taste." Ye Mingzhi's tone was very calm, and he didn't seem to be talking about his own business, "But Zongzheng's side concubine is different, she still has to gain a foothold in the palace, and she is still holding a breath with Concubine Zhao, choking on a breath, to see who falls first, she naturally has to be particular about making a move." ”
"If she is so pretentious, you may not be able to suspect her." Ye Mingzhu frowned and said, "She lives or dies, it has nothing to do with our brothers and sisters, but after all, she still has to make a living in the palace, and this backer is indispensable." In the past, I would never live again, and I finally fought for the opportunity to climb up......" In fact, she has fallen from a daughter to a slave with others, and she has long buried incomparable resentment in her heart, thinking that everyone in this world owes her. As long as she can get better, she is willing to do anything and do it.
"Therefore, we must try our best to make Zong Zhengya also stand tall and firm." Ye Mingzhi's voice became cold, "Mingzhu, don't expect to return to your old life, but if you manage it properly, you may not have a good life in the future." ”
Ye Mingzhu hummed, calmed down the resentment in his heart, and then whispered, "There are so many people who handle this matter, I'm afraid that something will go wrong." ”
"Don't worry, the only people in the know today are the concubine Zongzheng, Hu Nu and you and my brother and sister, and the others who have been involved, including the You Fang Daoist who sold your nasty medicine, the mother-in-law on the second door who was bribed by Hu Nu and the old Zhang Tou who guarded the door, and the few ruffians I found, don't want to live to see the sun tomorrow morning."
Ye Mingzhu was obviously taken aback, "What? ”
Ye Mingzhi was still in that indifferent tone, "What's so strange about this?" For those people, people die for money, and birds die for food, if they are not greedy for that little bit of money and beauty, how can they be fooled like this? The Taoist priest only thought that you were going to charm your husband at home, so he asked him to buy that kind of medicine that lacked morality. The mother-in-law and the old Zhang Tou on the second door thought that Hu Nu was privately taught and accepted, and it was just an idea to let outsiders in, or to smuggle some property, there would be no big trouble, so they could rest assured that they were greedy for ink. The ruffians thought that I owed a gambling debt and could not pay it, so they opened the door to let them sneak into the palace and play with the beautiful maids in the palace. They all thought about greed, and they were blinded by Xiaoli and Bao Tianse, how did they know that death was coming? And for the concubine Zongzheng, if she harmed the female gentleman surnamed Mei, can she still keep the person who does things? Killing people has always been the best way to do that selfish thing. You don't want to think about it, if there is such a dirty thing in the house, it must be investigated by Concubine Zhao. Who is Concubine Zhao? Ears and eyes are all over the palace, the mother-in-law on the second door and the old Zhang Tou's movements, will she not know? She knew it, but she didn't ask, it was clear that she was letting the concubine of Zongzheng do things freely, and in the end, she could catch the mistake of the concubine Zongzheng. ”
"Concubine Zongzheng turned against Concubine Zhao, right?" Ye Mingzhu suddenly blessed his soul and figured out these things, "The subordinates in the mansion misbehaved, and outsiders were allowed in, and the people living there defiled the palace, in the final analysis, it was all the fault of Concubine Zhao." After all, she is in charge of the entire palace. If nothing else, her lax management is a big mistake. At that time, Concubine Zhao knew that it was the concubine Zongzheng who did it, but she couldn't say anything because she had no evidence to die. Let her have more face on the king's side, and she will have to discount it in the future. Haha, let that surnamed Zhao always think about being clever, and be a good person when he does bad things! You really deserve it. ”
"It's good that you can see through." Ye Mingzhi finally had a hint of a smile, "That's why Concubine Zongzheng wants to repair a female gentleman but takes so much pain, originally she wanted to kill two birds with one stone, kill the woman who wanted to seduce the king, and also make Concubine Zhao uncomfortable inside and out." Mei Xiaofang was just drunk in our courtyard, but she was outside the courtyard when she had an accident, otherwise the face of the concubine of Zongzheng would not look good. When a foreign man enters the inner house, he cannot enter her territory. At the banquet, everyone drank the wine and the food was eaten by everyone, but these two things were added together and were added by Hu Nu, only Mei Xiaofang was the only one, how did others know? The real killer medicine, but the bowl you fed her in the backyard. When the time came, the drug had a seizure ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
