Chapter 250: Duanping
I didn't expect it, but I did it anyway.
While ruthlessly framing others, while claiming to be innocent, this kind of person who is inconsistent on the outside, Jin Zhao really has no good feelings.
She raised her eyebrows and said leisurely: "In this way, it's my fault, I shouldn't have driven Yubi out of the house."
When Xiang Tao heard this, she was suddenly frightened, she didn't say that.
Xiang Tao hurriedly explained: "The slave maid has no such intention." After a pause, "That Yubi usually relies on her identity as a first-class maid, and often does things out of the ordinary, and does not abide by the duties that a slave maid should have, and the slaves and maids have been oppressed by her a lot in private, and her behavior is like a slave and maid, and the imperial concubine drove her out of the house this time, which can be regarded as a harm, and the slaves and maids are all grateful to the imperial concubine in private." ”
Jin Zhao's eyes lit up with a meaningful smile: "This is wrong, if it weren't for your frame-up, how could Yubi be caught by me in front of everyone, Yubi can have today, it is thanks to your good plan."
Xiangtao's face turned pale when she heard this, how could she not hear that this was a backword, if it weren't for her revenge, how could she be easily taken by someone, completely out of a passive state.
It's just the scene of being humiliated by Yubi, she still remembers it, and after thinking about it, she really can't swallow this breath, so there is the blame for the back, but the world is unpredictable, and it was discovered after all.
The facts are in front of us, and it is impossible for Peach to admit it. Thinking of Yubi's fate, she regretted it at the moment.
Without thinking too much, she kowtowed to Jin Zhao and confessed her mistake: "Imperial concubine, slave maid...... The slave and maid are wrong, please see that the slave and the maid are the first time to make a mistake, and they will be punished lightly, and they will be beaten and punished, and the slave and maid will never complain, as long as they ...... As long as you don't drive the slaves and maids out of the house. ”
The little girl had never seen such a scene, thinking that as long as she drove away Yubi, she would be fine, but who knew that the new princess was so smart, she saw the clue at a glance, her frightened voice trembled, and tears instantly moistened her cheeks, looking very cute.
If you know today, why bother in the first place.
Jin Zhao shook his head and said, "When you came in just now, I gave you a chance, but you didn't want to tell the truth with a trace of luck, if I forgive you today, he will definitely feel that I am unfair, and there is no room for people with ulterior motives in the house."
Between the words, it seems that there is no room for negotiation.
Xiangtao wiped her tears and begged Qiaoci: "Qiaoci girl, you have always been very good-hearted, Yubi's matter, no matter what the slave and maid say, it can be regarded as helping you, please help the slave and maid to intercede, the slave and maid don't want to leave, if you drive the slave and the maid away, the slave and the maid are helpless, but I am afraid that they will not be able to live." Please help the slave and maid say a few words to the imperial concubine, as long as you can stay in the mansion. In the future, I will definitely repay the princess by being a cow and a horse. ”
Peach had a crying voice in her voice, almost to the point of pleading.
Qiao Ci hesitated for a moment, feeling a little unbearable, so she said to Jin Zhao: "Miss, you see that this girl looks very cute, now she has realized her mistake, and after this lesson, she must not do it again in the future, or you will spare her this time."
After all, Qiaoci is not cold-hearted and hard-hearted, and she can't stand such a plea from Xiang Tao, so she softened her heart after a few words. It's no wonder that even if her maid is an unsympathetic person, how could she have followed her for many years, and it was also expected by Jin Zhao to intercede for her.
But those who are good will have something to hate. If Xiang Tao hadn't been confused and wanted to frame Yubi, she would naturally not have caused this trouble. In the final analysis, it's just your own reason.
If you make a mistake, you can easily spare it, then you don't have to pay for your life if you kill someone.
Jin Zhao did not show favoritism because of Qiaoci's plea, the rules in the house must not be broken, otherwise the same thing will happen in the future, and the people will just cry, kowtow, and admit their mistakes, wouldn't they all be easily forgiven.
If that's the case, then what rules are there? The people below are all like each other, and the house is not in chaos.
Jin Zhao glanced at Qiao Ci and said, "I have made up my mind, so don't speak for her anymore." At the end, he said to Xiang Tao, "Don't blame me for being ruthless, thinking that you are quite dedicated to doing things in the house on weekdays, go back and withdraw some silver taels from the treasury, whether you go out to do some small business with that silver, or find someone to marry, in short, the house can't accommodate you." ”
The same thing left, in comparison, Peach is much better than Yubi.
Such a punishment is not too heavy for the peach, after all, with the silver, even if you go out, you won't go hungry. After all, what she did, even if she was beaten to death, was not a pity.
Seeing that it was impossible to stay, Xiang Tao wiped her tears with a handkerchief and knelt down to thank her.
After Xiang Tao left, Qiao Ci opened her mouth, as if she had something to say.
Jin Zhao couldn't see her thoughts, took a sip of tea from the cup, and said quietly: "Do you think that my punishment for fragrant peach is a bit heavy?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Qiao Ci's eyes, and she replied in a low voice: "Miss has her own thoughts in doing things, and slaves don't dare to make arbitrary remarks."
At the time of Yubi and Xiangtao, Jin Zhao's decisiveness surprised Qiaoci, and at the same time, he seemed to feel that the woman in front of him seemed a little strange.
Such a young lady has never been seen before.
Jin Zhao put down the teacup and said word by word: "You are my closest and most trusted maid, and you are not so angry, the Qiaoci in my impression is not such a spitting person, if you have any thoughts in your heart, but it doesn't matter, I want to hear the truth."
When it came to this, Qiao Ci had no choice but to say truthfully: "Yubi's usual style, it doesn't make sense to drive her out of the house, as for the peach, although the peach is wrong, the slave maid thinks that it is better to punish her to do rough work in the backyard, or take a few boards, and the punishment for driving her out of the house is a bit heavy, and the slave doesn't understand why the eldest lady has to do this."
Jin Zhao raised her head and glanced out the window, today's weather looks good, the sun shines through the window on Jin Zhao's body, she is wearing a moon-white dress today, a pair of eyes are clear and quiet, she slowly pulled off the veil, and after a moment of silence, she slowly spoke: "I understand that you think that in the matter of fragrant peaches, I have done something unkind."
Qiao Ci looked stunned, hesitated for a moment, and finally didn't make a sound, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
In front of her master, she didn't want to lie, and she didn't want to lie.
Jin Zhao pursed his lips and continued: "There are so many pairs of eyes in the mansion watching, Yubi and Xiangtao have made mistakes one after another, if I leave Xiangtao in the mansion, it will inevitably fall into the mouth, saying that I am biased, how to serve it when the time comes, and the truth that a bowl of water must be level, you understand." Since you are a housekeeper, you have to have the appearance of a housekeeper. ”
