Chapter 54: She's Changed
After returning from Chen's house, Wei Ruyi didn't speak again, and he was stuffed in the carriage and didn't know what to think.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the Hou Mansion.
Mother Xie took Zhiyu in, and Xiao Yao helped Wei Ruyi get out of the carriage.
Wu Ning Hou was not in the mansion, and the people in the Hou Mansion didn't expect her to come back at this time, they didn't prepare, and they hurriedly greeted her when they saw her appear.
Wei Ruyi didn't care, just walked in sullenly, but before he could take a few steps, he heard a strange laughter, like crying and laughing, very strange.
When she came back to her senses, she saw an unkempt woman running wildly towards her.
Xiao Yao immediately wanted to stop in front of her, but Wei Ruyi recognized it.
"Aunt Liu?"
How could she be?
Liu's footsteps stopped, and he only glared at Wei Ruyi fiercely: "Didn't you say that you can save Fang'er, you return my Fang'er, return my Fang'er!" β
She screamed in a hoarse voice, and Xiao Yao hugged her, but her strength at this time was extraordinarily strong, and she directly pushed Xiao Yao to the ground and pounced on Wei Ruyi.
Wei Ruyi immediately ducked back, ran two steps, and found that Liu's anger had turned into a low roar of fear.
There was a muffled sound of the wooden stick falling on the person, Wei Ruyi's footsteps stopped, and when she turned her head, she saw two maids who had been serving by Liu's side were beating her in public with sticks.
Liu seemed to have been frightened for a long time, squatting on the ground holding his head and not daring to move, only letting out a cry and anger that swirled in his throat.
"She's Aunt Liu." Wei Ruyi reminded these two maids, one of whom she still knew, was Qiu Rui, who rushed to Aunt Liu's side from Nanfeng Courtyard before.
Qiu Rui stopped, saluted her diligently, and then said: "Liu's crazy, Madame is generous, spare her life, but she is so crazy, and she always runs out by herself, if she doesn't beat her up, what if she hurts someone like this again?" β
Wei Ruyi listened to her heart-wrenching words, and her heart was indescribably weird, only staring at Aunt Liu, who was still shrunk on the ground with messy hair and dirty clothes, her face was slightly gloomy.
Is Wei Chaofang dead? Did he die of illness under his father's indulgence, or did the Yun family kill him in order to take revenge on Aunt Liu?
"Wei Ruyi, I'll kill you......"
Liu continued to yell at her, Qiu Rui turned her head and hit her head with a stick, and immediately blood overflowed, and Aunt Liu also collapsed to the ground, holding her head in fear and burrowing into the dirty bushes on one side, but was dragged out by Qiu Rui and another girl like a wild dog.
Mother Xie rushed to see all this, and only said softly: "Miss, this is what Madame ordered." β
Wei Ruyi knew that Aunt Liu came to her today, I am afraid that it was also the order of the Yun family, otherwise she was seen in the backyard by a ruthless character like Qiu Rui, how could she run out?
"Don't beat me, don't beat me, I'm going to keep a wake for Fang'er......"
Aunt Liu's humble plea came, but Qiu Rui only snorted sarcastically: "Miss Sixth is a sinner, where is your turn to keep a wake for her?" Don't go crazy, go back with the slaves. After speaking, he went to pull Aunt Liu, who knew that Aunt Liu was forced to be anxious, and bit her outstretched hand.
Qiu Rui was so painful that she immediately cried out, raised the stick in her other hand and hit Aunt Liu.
It's just that before the stick was swung down, Xiao Yao's wrist was grabbed.
She didn't know what grievances were there, she could only see a mother being abused and bullied.
"Miss......" Xiao Yao turned her head to look at Wei Ruyi expectantly.
Wei Ruyi only stared at Qiu Rui coldly: "She is the master, you are the servant, you don't seem to remember this very clearly." β
Qiu Rui's hand was about to be bitten off a piece of flesh by Aunt Liu, and seeing that Xiao Yao refused to let go, she had to kick Aunt Liu's heart, and let another girl ring hit Aunt Liu's neck hard, forcing her to let go.
She withdrew her hand and looked at the bloody wound, the anger and hatred in her eyes couldn't be hidden at all, so she only said to Wei Ruyi with a cold face: "The fourth lady has a big temper, and the slaves and maids don't dare to talk nonsense, but this matter is ordered by the lady, and the slaves and maids listen to the lady, if the fourth miss is not satisfied, go and tell the lady, it is useless to tell the slaves and maids." β
Mother Xie saw that she didn't take people in her eyes like this, and her face turned cold: "This is your attitude when talking to Miss Four?" β
Qiu Rui smiled sarcastically: "Mother Xie, don't scare the slave maid, the slave maid is timid, but she can't stand the fright." β
"You ββ!" Mother Xie looked at her without fear at all, and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"Thank you, Mom, slap your mouth." Wei Ruyi's eyes were cold, and he said directly.
Qiu Rui was slightly stunned: "The slave is a lady......
"Didn't you hear me? Palm! Dare to disrespect the master so much, and dare to beat my father's aunt in public, I don't believe this is my mother's order. Mother is virtuous and generous, how can she do such a vicious thing as you said? Wei Ruyi said coldly.
Qiu Rui's face was slightly pale, Xiao Yao took the opportunity to push her forward, and then kicked her back knee socket, making her kneel on the hard bluestone slab suddenly, and it seemed that there was a sound of bones cracking.
Mother Xie took the opportunity to step forward, grabbed Qiu Rui's hair, and the quick slap immediately fell down forcefully.
After only a dozen slaps, Qiu Rui's face immediately became swollen.
The other girl was frightened, looked at Aunt Liu who had fainted, turned around and wanted to slip away, but was stopped by Xiao Yao and pushed to the ground.
Wei Ruyi glanced at Xiao Yao, who didn't know what the rules were and was kind, and sighed slightly in his heart.
"Enough......" As soon as she spoke, a cyan figure walked out of the corner quickly, she saw Aunt Liu who was knocked unconscious, and then looked at Qiu Rui, who was being beaten, and anger immediately rose in her eyes: "Wei Ruyi, what are you doing!" β
Mother Xie stopped, Qiu Rui was already beaten unconscious, and when she heard Wei Qingshui's voice, she immediately cried and collapsed on the ground: "Third Miss, Fourth Miss just returned home, she beat Aunt Liu, and now she wants to kill the slave maid." β
"You talk nonsense! It was clear that you were ordered by your lady to knock out the Liu family, how could you wronged our young lady? Xiao Yao was so angry by Qiu Rui's words that reversed black and white that she stepped forward to refute, but was slapped in the face by Wei Qingshui.
Xiao Yao covered her face, and Wei Qingshui only looked at Wei Ruyi indifferently: "What kind of thing are you, dare to interject in front of the master!" β
"Slaves and maids are ......"
"Get down!" Wei Qingshui scolded, only then looked at Wei Ruyi's pale little face, and the sarcasm was even worse: "Wei Ruyi, you really opened my eyes." Okay, kill an aunt and kill a girl ring today, do you want to kill me by the way? β
"Third sister......" Wei Ruyi didn't mean to listen to her explanation for half a minute, so she silently buried all the grievances in her heart deep in her heart.
Since the third sister can't forgive herself, let's not ask her for forgiveness for the time being.
She smiled lightly, pointed at Qiu Rui and said, "Ruyi didn't dare to hurt my sister, and I never hurt Aunt Liu, but now I can't tolerate this reversal of black and white and hurting the master." Mother Xie, drag it down, hit a hundred boards, if she can live, give her a hundred taels and let her leave the house, if she dies......" She stared at Qiu Rui, who lost her blood in a moment on the ground, and smiled even more: "Then even if she has a thin life." β
Wei Qingshui had never seen Wei Ruyi like this, and she was a little frightened.
Mother Xie was also stunned, and then she reacted and immediately asked her mother-in-law to tie up Qiu Rui.
Qiu Rui couldn't care about the broken knee now, crawled and grabbed Wei Qingshui's clothes and cried for help: "Third Miss, the slave maid has not reversed black and white, you save the slave maid, it is the fourth lady She has a grudge against her wife, and she can't allow the people around her to kill the slave maid, save the slave and maid......"
Wei Qingshui looked at Mother Xie, who was coming to arrest people, and her face was cold: "I want to see who dares to do it today!" β
"I dare." Wei Ruyi stepped forward in person and pulled up Qiu Rui, and Xie's mother immediately stepped forward to tie people up.
Wei Qingshui was about to step forward, but was stopped by Wei Ruyi.
"The third sister wants to save her today, so she will kill Ruyi." Wei Ruyi looked straight at her without the slightest cowardice or evasion.
"Third Miss......" Qiu Rui was about to shout, Xiao Yao had already ripped off her shoes and blocked her mouth.
Wei Qingshui only felt that Wei Ruyi was crazy, or he was really lawless!
"Wei Ruyi......" She looked at her sister who she once loved in disappointment, and shook her head sarcastically: "I really didn't expect that you became what you are today, do you know, you don't look like the lovely Ruyi I knew before, you look like a ghost, a man-eating ghost." β
Wei Ruyi's eyes were slightly wet, and she only held back her tears and smiled: "The third sister will remember, Ruyi is a ghost, look at these maiden sisters in the future, don't fall into my hands again, otherwise, there will be no life." β
After speaking, she turned around and left before Wei Qingshui.
The rest of Yahuan was stupid, Mother Xie dragged people to fight at the door, without gagged, Qiu Rui's miserable shouts spread throughout the entire Wuning Hou Mansion, so that everyone could hear it.
Wei Qingshui looked at Wei Ruyi who was leaving, looked at Qiu Rui, and immediately ordered someone to call someone to come, and finally saved Qiu Rui before she was completely killed, but from now on, she will only be a paralyzed waste.
When she returned to the room, as soon as Wei Ruyi sat down, she felt a heart-wrenching pain in her heart, making her vomit a mouthful of blood.
"Miss!" Xiao Yao was startled, but Wei Ruyi only waved his hand, silently wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and wiped away the tears from his eyes: "Don't tell others, go pour tea." β
"But ......"
"Didn't you notice that you were disobedient!" Wei Ruyi's tone froze, Xiao Yao paused, and immediately knelt down.
Wei Ruyi turned his head to look at her, his eyes were cold: "I will give you back your freedom in the future, but now you have to remember your identity, this is the Marquis of Wuning's mansion, and it is no longer a temple." I am not the only master here, and people's hearts are not black and white. You are desperately trying to save Aunt Liu today, have you ever thought that she only wants me to die? You directly clashed with Qiu Rui today without my consent, do you know that you are forcing me to put my enmity with the Yun family on the surface? Have you ever thought about the third sister......" Wei Ruyi still wanted to say, but when she saw Xiao Yao's guilty eyes, she finally swallowed her words back.
Xiao Yao saw that her words stopped, and then slammed her head on the ground: "It's the slave who is stupid, please punish the young lady." β
"No need, if you can't live this life of being controlled everywhere, let's go." Wei Ruyi got up and poured the tea by himself, swallowing the bloody taste in his mouth.
Xiao Yao raised her head in astonishment, and said busily: "Miss, since the slave and maid recognize you as the master, they will not leave in this life, Miss don't drive the slave and maid away, the slave and maid know that they are stupid, and they will definitely change it in the future. She kowtowed, and Wei Ruyi didn't want her to go, but today's incident can't have a next time.
Xiao Yao has been raised since he was a child, and if this impulsive and good temperament is not completely changed, there will be endless troubles in the future.
"Go and do what I told you before, and come back after I finish it." Wei Ruyi said lightly, Xiao Yao was like being amnestied, got up and wiped her tears and nodded with a smile, and then walked out quickly.
Wei Ruyi saw that she didn't even bother to wipe the blood on her forehead, and only exhaled heavily.
When Tan'er hurriedly came over, the blood stains on the warm couch that had not been cleaned up were almost so frightened that her heart jumped out: "Miss, what's wrong with you, why did you come back suddenly, this blood is ...... you vomited"
Wei Ruyi saw that her injuries were good and almost became the nagging Tan'er again, and felt her heart warm.
She didn't interrupt her nagging, she sat obediently and drank tea, and when she finished nagging, she smiled and said, "Are you thirsty?" β
"I'm not very thirsty...... Tan'er waved her hand, and suddenly realized that she was teasing herself, and her little face puffed up angrily: "Miss still likes to bully slaves so much!" β
"Okay, good Tan'er, tell me about the recent events in the house, such as the sixth sister." Wei Ruyi said with a smile.
Tan'er finally closed her mouth, and when she mentioned Wei Chaofang, her expression was also complicated: "I heard that Miss Six committed suicide." β
"Suicide?"
"Well, it was said that early a few days ago, Aunt Liu planned to go to see Miss Six, but when she entered the house, she saw blood flowing all over the ground, and Miss Six cut her throat with a dagger in her hand. When Aunt Liu saw the blood in the room, she went crazy on the spot. Tan'er's voice was low, as if she had palpitations.
Wei Ruyi's eyes were slightly downcast, Wei Chaofang was broken by Qi Zheng, even if he recovered his strength, it would take several months, how could he have the strength to commit suicide now?
"What did my father say?" Wei Ruyi asked her.
"Miss......"
"Say, I just want to see how affectionate he is." Wei Ruyi said lightly.
Tan'er sighed lightly: "Master Hou only said that Miss Six apologized, and after Miss Six died, he only asked people to prepare a thin coffin and pull it to be buried, and then he went to the Seventh Prince's Mansion to ask for guilt." β
Wei Ruyi's heart was completely cold, no matter what, Wei Chaofang was also his father's biological blood, but in his eyes, it seemed to be just a useless chess piece. And she is slightly luckier than her, a useful pawn.
Maybe the chess pieces are the chess pieces, and it is still unknown whose hands are burned.
The current Jiang Di was distracted because he was thinking about the Chen family and Wei Ruyi, and he happened to be splashed with hot tea.
"Lord Wang!" Ling Feng hurriedly called, Jiang Di came back to his senses, looked at his wet clothes, and said in a deep voice: "The matter of Yundong, haven't you found out yet?" β
"No, the criminal department Shangshu sued the emperor, and now the biggest suspect is the prince." Ling Feng said worriedly.
"Keep looking."
"Yes." After Ling Feng finished speaking, he doubted: "Lord Wang, could it be that someone is secretly planning to attack you?" Otherwise, these successive things will make you fall short every time. β
Jiang Di naturally also had a sense of crisis, he got up and walked to the room, and said, "Who do you think it will be?" β
Ling Feng's face darkened: "The prison of the Criminal Department is heavily guarded, and the only people who can visit are the people of the Yun family, if it weren't for them directing and acting themselves, who could completely escape the defense of the Criminal Department and kill a big man quietly?" β
"Yun Jia." Jiang Di's footsteps stopped slightly, and his brows furrowed fiercely.
While he was pondering, a figure came out of his room, it was the mute girl from before.
When the dumb girl saw him, she was afraid and surprised, so she quickly adjusted her clothes and makeup, and then walked over with a shy smile.
Jiang Di's face was gloomy, seeing that she only felt unlucky, and was about to turn around and leave, but the dumb girl saw his wet clothes, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull him, he was angry, turned around and pushed her away.
"This king warns you, if you appear in front of this king again, this king will definitely kill you!"
Ling Feng didn't like this mute girl either, so he snorted coldly and asked his subordinates to drag her away.
Jiang Di didn't have time to take care of her, so he only went to the concubine's house to change his clothes before going out directly.
didn't know that as soon as he left, the dumb girl would be targeted.
In the Temple of Nourishing the Heart.
Lou Yan stood at the bottom of the position, and Prime Minister Yun stood on the other side.
The emperor's face was a little tired, but he couldn't hide his coldness.
"A murder case is more than enough to be handed over to the Criminal Department for investigation, what else will Yun Aiqing do?"
"Master Shangshu Ma of the Criminal Department has been fishing in troubled waters and mud for so many years, and he will investigate, Lao Chen is really relieved, although it is just a simple murder case, but there are rumors circulating in the outside world, this matter was done by His Royal Highness King Xiao, if it is not found out as soon as possible, how can His Royal Highness King Xiao be innocent? It is a matter of the face of the royal family, and Weichen does not dare to be sloppy. Prime Minister Yun said respectfully below.
The emperor glanced at him impatiently, and only said, "Then what does Aiqing mean?" β
Master Ma, who was kneeling on the side, was full of embarrassment, and there was a trace of forbearance that dared not speak out.
Prime Minister Yun didn't take him seriously at all, the criminal department was still in the book, the foundation was not deep, and he was not taboo, he only said: "Back to the emperor, the Manchu Dynasty is known to the civil and military, the new national teacher, wisdom and courage are unparalleled, it is a rare person among the dragon and phoenix in case of picking one, this matter is supervised by him, and the new criminal department waiter will host it, and Weichen will be more assured." β
Lou Yan looked at him lightly: "Prime Minister Yun is really nepotistic. β
"Wechen is a virtuous man who does not avoid relatives, although the new criminal department waiter is Wechen's own nephew, but he is also the champion of the examination, a real capable person." Prime Minister Yun seemed very proud.
Lou Yan only looked at the emperor who was sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight with his eyes closed and did not speak, and then said: "If this is the case, then according to what the prime minister said, but ......"
Prime Minister Yun saw that he agreed, and his smile was even worse: "But what? β
Lou Yan looked at Master Ma who was kneeling silently on the side, and said lightly: "Yun Cheng doesn't believe in Master Ma, I believe it." Only using the people of the Yun family to check is inevitably biased, and I believe that no one knows better than Master Ma, who has been sitting in the position of Shangshu for more than ten years. β
Prime Minister Yun's teeth tightened slightly, and Master Ma hurriedly looked at Lou Yan, but he only turned around indifferently.
As soon as he thought that Prime Minister Yun was doing this, he clearly planned to help his nephew squeeze himself out, so he hurriedly said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to continue to investigate." "If he is really squeezed down, the emperor will soon forget about himself, and those former political enemies will take the opportunity to fall into the ground, and he doesn't want to do this.
Only then did the emperor open his eyes and look at him with a smile: "Okay, then you and the squire will try it together, and the national teacher will supervise it." β
"Your Majesty!"
"Weichen Command!" Master Ma was busy kowtowing, and the emperor only yawned, and regardless of the unwilling Prime Minister Yun, he said, "I am also tired, so let's step down." After speaking, he took Gao Gonggong's hand and left.
Seeing this, Prime Minister Yun Cheng had to snort coldly and glared at Master Ma: "Then please ask Lord Ma to check it well!" β
Master Ma used to grovel to him because he wouldn't do anything to him, and he could be sheltered by hiding under the wings of the Yun family, but now that Prime Minister Yun is forcing him to die, how can he still be a coward?
He got up and saluted respectfully: "Weichen must live up to the prime minister's expectations." β
Prime Minister Yun's face turned pale, and he flicked his sleeves and left.
After he left, Ma Da hurriedly smiled and went to salute Lou Yan, but Lou Yan didn't look at him and followed.
Master Ma and the second monk were confused, didn't the national teacher want to help himself?
He couldn't figure it out, but now that the Yun family has been offended, he must find someone to rely on, and now the national teacher who is becoming more and more favored is undoubtedly the purest reliance on the background.
He made up his mind, and went to his house to find someone to discuss a solution.
After they left, the emperor recruited someone to ask, and only after knowing Lou Yan's reaction did he laugh out loud: "I am not mistaken, he is an arrogant man who is not close to anyone, so that he is in line with my intentions, and saves himself from thinking about partisan collusion like those courtiers, making the government and the opposition miserable." β
"That's what the emperor said." Gao Gonggong patted his ass decently.
The emperor glanced at him, suddenly remembered something, and said with a smile: "A few years ago, the king of Runan gave me a hot spring Zhuangzi, I heard that the Zhuangzi is near the mountain, and there are deer and horses in the mountain, let's find a time to have fun and take the old lady to ......."
Gao Gonggong's eyes lit up slightly, and he said with a smile: "The old lady doesn't go out of the temple all the year round, how can she come to Zhuangzi?" β
"Didn't you say that the fourth lady of the Wei family liked the concubine very much, and she still wanted to take the concubine to go outing?"
"That's right." Gao Gonggong said busily.
The emperor looked at him with disgust: "Could it be that in the heart of the old lady, I can't compare to a yellow-haired girl?" β
Father-in-law Gao also said with a straight face: "The fourth lady is well-behaved and obedient, and she often serves decoction medicine by the old lady's side, and the old lady naturally likes her more now." β
"You're ......! I give you death. The emperor glared at him hatefully, then thought about it and said, "That's it, then call that Nizi of the Wei family to go, and then ask her to go with you." β
"I'm afraid it's not appropriate to ask the fourth lady to go with me, after all, it's ......" Gonggong Gao wanted to speak and stopped, the emperor knew that he was referring to the queen's previous affairs, so his eyes sank, and then he said: "She can keep this matter, and she didn't say a word." Has Wu Ninghou been at home all these years? β
"Yes, you haven't sent him an errand since he divorced his wife and children without permission."
"The! He is not satisfied......" The emperor remembered what had happened, and he was so angry that he could not do it, so he only became cold, and said: "The matter of the Chen family, let Lou Yan go and find out, if someone frames me, I will not spare it!" β
"The emperor is wise."
"As for the Marquis of Wuning...... his face tightened a little, and he waved his hand for a while: "Forget it, let him continue to be idle, but Wei Ruyi will reward her with some newly paid brocade and jewelry, which can be regarded as a reward." β
When Gonggong Gao heard this, he smiled one by one, and then immediately went to do it.
Towards the end of the evening, Xiao Yao finally returned.
"Old lady Chen's illness is not difficult to investigate, the slave maid also found the doctor who diagnosed the pulse at that time, the doctor said that it was the convulsions caused by the anger attack, and the old lady has been on the battlefield all the year round, leaving a lot of injuries on his body, and now he has relapsed together, which is very dangerous." Xiao Yao stood at the bottom of the road.
Wei Ruyi sat up in shock, it was very dangerous, wouldn't that be a worry about life? In his previous life, his grandfather seemed to have died in this year, could it be that in his previous life, it was because of this illness? In his previous life, since the death of his maternal grandfather, he was in charge of the house by his uncle Chen Ding, but although his uncle was a stern one, he had no scheming, and the back house was made into a miasma by several uncles, coupled with the provocation of outsiders and the instigation of those fine workers in the house, several children of the Chen family also grew more and more crooked, and committed a lot of things, I am afraid that the emperor will be annoyed, until the father and King Xiao planted it, and easily defeated the entire Chen family!
Xiao Yao saw that she was so anxious, what she wanted to say, and remembered her previous lesson, so she hurriedly bit her lip and swallowed the words.
Wei Ruyi hurriedly got up and wanted to go out, but her feet stopped at the door again, she turned her head to look at Xiao Yao and said, "The Chen family has invited a doctor?" β
"Please, it's the Tai Hospital." Xiao Yao replied.
"I write a letter, you send it to Hu Mansion immediately, and be sure to ask Imperial Doctor Hu to go to the clinic in person." Imperial Physician Hu is devoted to studying medical skills, and some of his methods may be more old-fashioned, but his ability is definitely better than half of his mind being spent in the courtyard between the powers of the harem!
Xiao Yao saw that the situation was urgent, and nodded hurriedly.
After Wei Ruyi wrote the letter, he said: "That housekeeper, the slave didn't find much. β
"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with him." Wei Ruyi thought of the housekeeper, and also recalled some details, this housekeeper had an accident one year, a concubine in his family eloped with someone, and as a result, he was also sued to the government, and it was also because of that incident that his uncle Chen Ding was slandered for doing illegal things, and was relieved of his official position by the emperor who wanted to reduce the military power of the Chen family.
If you can follow this matter, you will definitely know who the master of this steward is!
She sent Xiao Yao out, and Grandpa Gao arrived.
There are a lot of things to be rewarded, but what Wei Ruyi cares more about is the words that Grandpa Gao revealed to her, and Grandpa Gao's thoughts to help her, she can see it very clearly, although she doesn't know what Grandpa Gao's purpose is.
She smiled: "My father-in-law has worked hard. After speaking, Xie's mother handed over a purse with interest, and inside was a few silver tickets worth 100 taels.
Father-in-law Gao looked at Wei Ruyi and smiled: "Fourth Miss doesn't have to be polite, the old slave may have to rely on Fourth Miss in the future." β
Wei Ruyi's eyebrows raised slightly, what do you mean by this?
Grandpa Gao didn't understand her, and didn't say much, just smiled and saluted and left.
When he left, Wu Ninghou was like a dog smelling the smell of meat, and he arrived immediately.
"The emperor just rewarded you with these things?" Wu Ninghou smiled kindly, as if the queen's incident had never happened at all.
"Yes."
"What else did Grandpa Gao say?" Wu Ninghou asked expectantly.
Wei Ruyi knew what he wanted to hear, as a first-class marquis, he didn't even have an errand, which was the most despised by those nobles.
Wei Ruyi said obediently: "I also mentioned my father, what errands and so on, but my daughter doesn't understand ......."
When Wu Ninghou heard what he wanted, he was really happy, and immediately said happily: "You are really a good daughter of your father." Now that the emperor has ordered you to serve the concubine well, you can go back to the mountain tomorrow to serve, and you don't have to worry about family affairs. β
Wei Ruyi looked at him and almost laughed sarcastically.
What kind of place is that temple? It is the place where the first emperor and the concubines practiced, how can there be a yellow flower girl to live for a long time? If he really loved himself, how could he blurt out such words?
Wu Ninghou saw that she was silent, first felt a little guilty, and then immediately turned to anger.
"Why, you don't want to listen to your father?" His voice was a little cold.
"Ruyi didn't dare, but the emperor didn't tell Ruyi to go up the mountain, and Ruyi didn't dare to go without permission." Wei Ruyi lowered his eyes and gathered the coldness.
Wu Ninghou paused, but he also felt that what she said was indeed reasonable.
After thinking about it, she didn't mention it anymore, but only told her that the next time Father-in-law Gao came, he must hint to him more about his desire to receive an errand.
Wei Ruyi naturally responded, Wu Ninghou didn't mention it, she would say it next time.
If the emperor didn't know that Marquis Wu Ning was desperate to gain power, how could the emperor completely depose him!
After sending Wu Ninghou away, Wei Ruyi returned to the room.
Mother Xie came back from outside and saw her sitting alone on the edge of the bed in a daze, so she immediately stepped forward to put on her cloak and closed the window before saying, "Miss, it's cold at night, how can it be good to suffer from the cold." β
"How's it going?"
"Ask clearly, Mother Xing doesn't know that Xinghu is dead." Mother Xie poured her hot tea.
"In this way, what did the Yun clan use to blackmail Xinghu, as for Mother Xing, there are still things to hide......" Wei Ruyi thought while caressing the floating tea leaves on the tea surface with the tea lid.
Mother Xie nodded.
Wei Ruyi was like this for a long time before finally said: "Find someone to reveal the news of Xing Hu's death to Mother Xing, I want to see what secrets she hides about the Yun family." β
"Yes."
"And ......" Wei Ruyi thought of his younger brother Wei Qingze, and his eyes glowed with a soft light: "Tomorrow morning, I want to go out." β
Mother Xie looked at her deeply, didn't ask a word in the end, and only quit one by one.
Wei Ruyi put down the teacup and returned to the bed, looking at everything familiar in this room, he finally put everything behind and fell asleep.
The moon was in the sky tonight, but Wei Qizhang couldn't sleep all night.
He stood outside the Nanfeng Courtyard and watched as the lights inside finally went out, before silently turning around and going back to his room.
The golden cicada was already waiting inside, and when she saw him come back, she pasted it and rubbed it against him with her softness: "Master, the slave has prepared hot water, but do you want to wash?" β
"Hmm."
The room was hazy, and for a moment, Jin Cicada's face seemed to be extremely wishful.
He was stunned, raised his hand unconsciously, put all her scattered buns behind him, and took off the complicated hairpin on her head, before raising his hand and gently touching her face.
Jin Cicada became ecstatic to his sudden gentleness, and lowered her little face shyly, not wanting to be provoked by him again, and her red lips were instantly invaded by him, hot and gentle, so that she quickly collapsed in his arms.
Wei Qizhang let go of the emotions in his heart, blew out all the candles in the room, and only held the illusion, holding the golden cicada step by step.
Once a spring night, even tonight's dream was sweet.
Wei Ruyi went out early in the morning, and when Wei Qizhang came over with a food box, only Tan'er was left.
"Second master, Miss is not here."
"What did you do?" Wei Qizhang asked strangely.
Tan'er laughed: "Miss said that there are a bunch of little Wang Ba bullying the little boy, and she is going to catch the stewed Wang Ba soup." β
Wei Qizhang also laughed lightly, put down the food box and walked out of the house quickly.
At the entrance of the most famous Pear Blossom Academy in the capital, several teenagers came together, and they looked like they were very gentlemanly in Beijing.
"I'm going to beat that Wei Qingze all over the ground looking for teeth today!"
"That is, who made his sister dare to beat us? This time I had to hang him on a tree again and make him cry for a day and a night. β
"This method is good, it's better to scare him into peeing his pants......"
As they became more and more energetic, they did not notice the carriage that had been parked for a long time.
Until they walked to the corner and were about to enter the academy, suddenly their feet slipped, and the three of them fell together and ate.
"Ouch, what bastard is this who poured oil all over the ground here!" One of them immediately cursed.
"Which turtle grandson is scolding my aunt again?"
Wei Ruyi took a stick and lightly opened the curtain and said lightly.
When the three teenagers saw that it was her, they got up and were about to run, but when they took a step forward, an ankle-length rope suddenly pulled up, and the three of them hit the ground face again, knocking their front teeth off.
This time, the three of them didn't dare to run, so they only knelt on the ground and cried: "Grandma, we didn't mean to scold you, please let us go." β
Wei Ruyi's eyes bent into a small crescent, Xiao Yao came over to help her, she jumped out of the carriage handsomely and walked to the three of them, took a stick and pestle in front of them, and said, "But I've been so soft lately, I have to move, can you help me?" β
The three of them remembered the pig's head face that had not yet disappeared, and immediately cried, but Wei Ruyi hurriedly shouted: "If others know that the three of you were beaten like this by me, how faceless." β
"That'...... So what to do......"
The three of them wiped their tears and snot and asked.
Wei Ruyi only smiled generously: "Simple, I'll let you go." β
"Really?"
"But from now on, I am your aunt and grandmother, so who is my brother?" Wei Ruyi asked.
"Yes...... Grandpa? β
Wei Ruyi smiled with satisfaction, raised his hand and touched the little heads of the three of them: "It's good to know, I'll come over from time to time to take a look, if I know that you dare to bully him, or let others bully him, I'll chop off your fingers one by one and feed them to the dogs." β
The three of them were frightened when they saw her cute appearance of smiling when she said such cruel words.
Wei Ruyi smelled a faint fishy smell coming from the air, looked down, and saw that one of the pants was wet.
Her eyes widened in astonishment, and then she reacted, burst out laughing, and then got up and went back to the carriage and left.
When Wei Qingze came, he only saw the three of them sitting in a jar of oil, and there was a bad smell on their bodies.
"What's wrong with you? Do you want me to call the Master? He asked.
"No need to be a little bit...... Grandpa! β
They forcibly changed their words, but Wei Qingze only felt weird, and didn't bother them to go to the academy anymore.
I had been watching Wei Qizhang in the dark when he saw Wei Qingze leaving, so he walked out, looked at the three of them and smiled gently: "Are you all right?" β
When the three of them saw the gentle and kind Wei Qizhang, they cried out loud, but after crying, they ignored Wei Qizhang and turned their heads into the academy, for fear that Wei Ruyi, the female devil, would turn back and chop off their fingers one by one and feed them to the dogs.
Wei Qizhang saw that the three of them were scared like this, laughed, and looked at the direction Wei Ruyi left, full of spoiling, his Ruyi is still this naughty character, it's okay, as long as she is happy, whatever!
After Wei Ruyi left from Pear Blossom Academy, he directly let the carriage go to the largest jewelry shop in the capital, and the people who came here were either rich or expensive, so even if there were many people in the spacious hall, it seemed very quiet.
She sat in the corner, pretending to look at the jewelry, while waiting for the person she wanted to show up.
Not long after, the jewelry store, which only had a few gold and silver jewelry collisions, ushered in a noise.
The twisted posture and the makeup that is exaggerated to almost hide the original face, and the naturally big voice.
"Shopkeeper, whatever new jewelry you bought today, wrap it up for me." As soon as she entered the door, she shouted, and after shouting, she hurried to the ladies and ladies.
Wei Ruyi looked at her busy figure and the perfunctory and embarrassed smiles of the ladies, raised her lips, picked up a ruby hairpin in front of her, and walked over slowly.
walked straight behind her, and then pretended to ask the shopkeeper: "This hairpin is sold so expensive?" β
"Expensive? This young lady, you may not know, this is bloodstone, and it is a rare piece, you look at this texture, we bid five hundred taels, it is really cheap. The shopkeeper was busy.
"Hmph, I can see if this bloodstone is good, don't fool me for a fool." Wei Ruyi snorted lightly.
The shopkeeper smiled and was about to speak, but the words fell on the ears of the woman with heavy makeup who had just come in, as if this 'fool' was scolding her.
She turned her head and said sarcastically: "This young lady looks like she is either rich or expensive, why is it too expensive to wear jewelry for just five hundred taels?" If it's too expensive, I know of a shop that sells cheap jewelry, No, the one diagonally across the door, set up a stall, and you can buy the things in it for one or two taels of silver. β
Wei Ruyi also sarcastically mocked her: "I didn't know that jewelry could be sold so cheaply, but this aunt knows it." β
"Auntieββ!" Her eyes widened with anger, and Wei Ruyi's eyebrows raised slightly: "What, you are not forty years old this year?" β
"Forty!" The woman almost vomited a mouthful of blood, she is only twenty-five this year, and she looks like twenty at most on the outside, and she actually said that she is forty!
She has always been a delicate person, but Wei Ruyi poked at her most intolerable point as a woman, and immediately said coldly: "This young lady really shows no mercy at all." β
"Who are you, a young lady from my father-in-law's family, why should you save face?" Wei Ruyi's chin was raised, looking like a bad girl.
The woman was so angry that she could only hold back her anger and laugh: "It seems that this young lady really has little dealings with the nobles of the capital, I am not a big person, but Your Royal Highness King Xuan should have heard of it, right?" β
Wei Ruyi sighed in her heart, isn't she the concubine who is in charge, and later eloped with someone, why is she now the one who claims to be King Xuan?
But no matter what, this woman who has harmed the Chen family deserves to die!
Wei Ruyi's lips hooked: "I haven't heard that His Royal Highness King Xuan has a concubine, and the side concubine is not you." β
"I ββ!" The woman looked at the 'so so' expressions cast by the ladies and ladies around her, her anger and blood surged to the top of her head, she gritted her teeth and turned her head and rushed out of the inn.
Wei Ruyi's hand hanging on his sleeve and slowly sprinkling the medicinal powder slowly stopped, looked at her back, and turned around indifferently.
After a while, there was the neighing of horses outside, and the sound of a woman flying into the air and falling heavily to the ground.
She glanced at King Xiao's favorite fierce horse, and a chill escaped from her lips.
