Chapter 6: Cleverness is mistaken by cleverness
How could Steward Zhao sense that Jiang Jingyu was wrong, and nodded vigorously to complain, "What the villain said is true." Now that the princess is going to kill her subordinates if she disagrees, who will dare to go to the palace on an errand in the future?"
The more he talked, the more energetic he became, until Jiang Jingyu snorted coldly: "Someone, tie him up, send him to the princess, and let the princess dispose of it." ”
Steward Zhao was still stunned, and was detained on the ground by the guards who rushed in, and he realized that something was wrong at this time, and begged for mercy again and again.
Jiang Jingyu's eyes were cold, "Take it down, and then tell everywhere, see the princess, if you see this king, if you dare to commit it, you will be killed." ”
The famous cold-blooded Yama in the capital said.
On the other side, Shen Xizhi finally waited for Steward Zhao, who went and returned. It's just that he was sobbing and panicking at this time.
The guards told Jiang Jingyu's words, but Shen Xizhi was not too happy, because she heard the maintenance hidden in Jiang Jingyu's words. But even if she and Jiang Jingyu met for the first time yesterday, even if that person recognized her identity as a princess, it was impossible to say the sentence "Seeing the princess is like seeing the king"!
Who is Jiang Jingyu? The dragon son of the Eight Classics, and the third in line, the second prince died unexpectedly five years ago, and there is only the crown prince Jiang Zerui above him. If Jiang Zerui had any accident, Jiang Jingyu would be the crown prince.
And who is she, Shen Xizhi? She is the daughter of a criminal minister like a rat crossing the street, and the emperor regards her as a thorn in the flesh, just because she is Shen Xizhi, the blood of the Shen family.
With such a world of difference, what is Jiang Jingyu trying to do?
Shen Xizhi was extremely puzzled, but he didn't know that the entire palace and even the capital had set off turbulent waves because of Jiang Jingyu's words.
In the evening, the maids in Shen Xizhi's courtyard were all cleaned except for the wonderful intentions, and it is said that Jiang Jingyu asked people to pick up the palace maids.
Shen Xizhi didn't care where they came from, as long as they didn't offend themselves.
And Miaoyi was afraid, she saw that all those people were more capable than her, for fear that Shen Xizhi would dislike her and leave her. So I tried my best to learn from those people and do my best to show my worth.
Her background is the lowest among the maids, and she crawled out of the belly of Sister Hua in the hook bar. She is timid and cowardly, afraid of being noticed, and afraid of being abandoned.
Shen Xizhi was like a life-saving straw for her, and she desperately wanted to grasp it.
But no matter how powerful Shen Zhi is, it is impossible to know what a maid who has only known for more than half a day thinks, and after dinner, she went back to the room early, and no one was allowed to serve.
She blew out the candle and closed her eyes, her mind was full of scenes of the Shen family being raided.
That day was the day when everyone in the Shen family was beheaded, and it was also the day when she and Jiang Jingyu got married.
Her wedding dress seemed to be dyed red by the blood of her family.
She must, she must find out the truth!
When night falls, it's not too quiet in the village. There is the barking of dogs in the caretaker's yard, and the jingle of pots and pans.
In the kitchen, Fu Shao'er withdrew her hand tremblingly, threw the small cardboard box containing the medicine into the stove, and the small flames "poofed" up and devoured it in an instant.
"Is the meal ready!" Fu Zhou held the fourth child in his arms, and when he arrived at the point, he smelled it.
Fu Shao'er's hand shook, and she hurriedly set the bowl: "Okay, it's already good." ”
Fu Zhou called the second sister and the third sister, two half-grown children who were not thin, and one went out with two bowls of thin rice soup.
"Mother...... Fu Shao'er handed over the two bowls of rice with the most rice to Fu Zhou's, and in her disgusted eyes, she squeezed out an ugly smile, "The fourth brother is still growing his body, so I'll leave my share to the fourth brother to eat." ”
Fu Zhou didn't think much about it, and really poured Fu Shao'er's bowl of rice into the fourth child's bowl, and filtered it to leave her with a bowl of bland clear soup.
"Count you as acquaintances. Fu Zhou handed the bowl to the fourth child, as if he was afraid that Fu Shao'er would regret it.
When the family was eating, Fu Shao'er squatted in the kitchen, and the bowl of soup was poured out by her, and she was so hungry that she had to pour two large bowls of water.
Estimating that the family should finish eating, Fu Shao'er obediently cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and when everything was done, it was already silent, and even the dogs outside stopped making trouble.
Fu Shao'er lightly touched the room between Fu Zhou and Fu Boss, and she knew that her mother had hidden the silver in the gap between the bed boards. She opened the fourth brother who was sleeping in Fu Zhou's arms, and moved Fu Zhou's dead pig-like to move away, groping in the dark.
This night the moon is dark and the wind is high. Fu Shao'er scavenged all the money in the house, took his best clothes and a silver-mixed hairpin that Fu Zhou's family was reluctant to bring on weekdays, and left the house in the cool breeze.
In some places, the night is not quiet.
The maids from the Miaoyi back palace were blocked in the wind, and the cool breeze made her shiver, but several people were standing in the courtyard, and as soon as she moved, she had to gain several glances.
"Sister Miaoyi, why have you been shaking? Are you not in good health? Or you should go and rest first, just have us to guard it. "The maids were divided into two groups during the night, and they had to be handed over in the early morning.
How could Miaoyi not understand in her heart that her embarrassing position was chosen by them, but she was outnumbered, so she had to grit her teeth to prevent herself from shaking too much.
"Thank you Sister Yi'er for your concern, I am in good health, I don't need to rest. ”
"Not necessarily. Yi'er gave the nearest maid a look, and the person understood, walked to the door and listened, but there was no sound in the room.
"The princess is asleep. The maid said with a smile.
The other two maids exchanged glances, and both smiled maliciously at Miaoyi.
Miaoyi has been bullied for a long time, how can she not know what they mean? She was frightened for a while, and couldn't help but take half a step back: "You guys...... What do you want to do? The princess is still in the house, aren't you afraid that I will tell the princess?"
"Even if you sue, then the princess must believe you. Yi'er said, "It's not easy to do things for the concubine, of course you can't keep it." ”
As he spoke, several people rushed up, covering Miaoyi's mouth so tightly that they tied her up and took out gold and silver pearls and stuffed them into her arms.
Those things were all secretly taken by Yi'er from Shen Xizhi's room, and it was also thanks to her that she was smart and didn't take them on the surface, so Shen Xizhi didn't find out.
Early the next morning, the person who was waiting for Shen Xizhi to wash became Yi'er.
Yi'er helped her comb her hair in a bun, but instead of taking the hair accessories from the dressing table, she opened a brocade box, which was empty
"Princess, this ......"
Shen Xizhi remembered that this brocade box was given by Concubine Rong on the wedding day, and it contained many gadgets.
"This brocade box looks a little familiar. She paused slightly, "What do you want to say?"
Yi Er was shocked, and somehow aroused Shen Xizhi's suspicions. But she quickly calmed down and said, "The princess forgives her sins, and the slave maid only has some doubts in her heart, so she ......"
She looked at Shen Xizhi cautiously, and then said: "The slave maid accidentally saw Miaoyi secretly leaving the princess's room last night, and the slave maid was curious for a while, so she followed, but I didn't expect to see her steal a lot of gold, silver and pearls. The slave was incompetent, and when the slave wanted to call someone, she was taken away by a man in black. ”
