Chapter 114: The Argument Falls

Chapter 114: The Argument Falls

Mu Lingke saw that they were deflated, and not to be outdone, he interjected: "Don't think that you can bully people if you don't know the rules, if my maid commits something, I am in charge of it, and I don't need others to act on my behalf." After speaking, he looked at Sun Qingyang, pointed to Huoxiang who was still kneeling on the ground and said: "Sister Qingyang, Huoxiang and I kicked the shuttlecock in this courtyard, and a group of them came over and said that they wanted to kick together, but as a result, as soon as they came up, Minghui didn't say a word, so that her foot deliberately tripped Huoxiang, and hit a rake, saying that Huoxiang bumped into her, and she gave Huoxiang a heartwarming foot when she raised her leg, and she couldn't get up straight for a long time. Didn't you just want to find my fork, but you used my maid to be angry, and in this blue sky and daylight, she didn't touch her conscience and talked nonsense. ”

Mu Lingke thought of Minghui's kick and still had palpitations, not counting if she tripped Huoxiang, after she kicked Huoxiang, she still stepped on her heart, and her hideous expression was as if she was going to eat Huoxiang.

Speaking of the reason, Mu Lingke looked at Minghui's expression even more unkindly, and his small round face turned red.

Minghui was counted down in public by the youngest Mu Lingke, and she was ashamed and angry, she has always been a strong and domineering character, when did she suffer such anger? Pointing at Mu Lingke, he scolded: "You sassy dog, you fly around when you see the light, don't forget, your grandfather is my grandfather's slave, and you are also my slave." Even your sister became my father's step-concubine, and I don't know what means she used, and she couldn't get on the table, but she was chewing the root of her tongue here, to see if I didn't tear your mouth. After speaking, he raised his hand again and hit Mu Lingke.

If you can't hit your face, then hit somewhere else.

Sun Qingyang originally wanted to persuade Minghui and them to make things smaller, who knew that the other party would not be willing to spare if she didn't take advantage of it, and at this time, seeing that Mu Lingke was going to suffer, she was about to stop her again, but when she saw Chen Lifei and Emperor Yongle coming in through the moon cave door, her heart moved, she turned around and pounced on Mu Lingke, hugged her, and took Minghui's several blows for her.

Although Minghui is only eleven or twelve years old, and his strength is not great, he is wearing thick clothes in winter, and he can still hear them very clearly when he crackles these few times.

Before Mu Lingke and Minghui could say anything, Concubine Chen Li's voice had already come from behind: "What are you doing here, can't you even see the emperor coming?" ”

Sun Qingyang, who was facing away from them, winked at Mu Lingke, then turned around and bent his knees with everyone, "See the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." ”

Compared with those who were flustered in their voices, Sun Qingyang was much calmer.

When Emperor Yongle let them be exempted from courtesy, and before Minghui could speak, Mu Lingke's eyes were filled with tears, "Your Majesty, please give your servants the master." ”

Emperor Yongle saw Mu Lingke, who had always been festive with a round face, with tears in his eyes, and asked strangely, "Minion? Why do you say that, girl? Your grandfather Mu Ying is my brother-in-law, that is, on the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, you should also call yourself a courtier, why did you change your title today? ”

Mu Lingke sobbed and pointed at the county lord of Minghui, "It was she who said it, saying that I was a sassy dog flying in the light, saying that I was a slave, that is, you canonized my sister as Princess Zhao, and it was also because we used the means to ......" At that moment, she learned what Minghui had just scolded her, and then said: "If it weren't for Sister Sun to help me block it, those few blows would have fallen on my face, and Sister Sun had persuaded her before that she would not hit people in the face." ”

Sao Gouzi, Dingyuan words, which means flying insects under the summer lights, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and the deceased Xiping Hou Muying, are all from Dingyuan.

Although Minghui didn't want to slap Mu Lingke's face with those few blows, at this moment, no one believed her when she said it, after all, everyone could see it clearly when Sun Qingyang was beaten.

was wronged on the spot by Mu Lingke like this, and Minghui looked at her with a little hatred.

Her demeanor fell into the eyes of Emperor Yongle one by one, and she was even more convinced of what Mu Lingke said.

Hearing that Ming Hui actually insulted the deceased old Xipinghou in his words, even Chen Lifei looked at her with some pity, thinking that the old Xipinghou, with outstanding merits and fame, was spelled out with a knife and a sword, not a waste of fame, let alone flattery, Taizu Xiaoci Gao Empress Ma Shi died, he cried until he vomited blood, so he was infected with a disease, and died at the age of forty-eight, although he was posthumously named the king of Qianning, Zhaojing, and enjoyed the Taimiao, but his untimely death was not only the pain of the grandfather, but the current saint Yongguang Emperor also often remembers, Now Minghui actually said such things, and insulted the Princess Mu of Zhao, who was personally crowned by Emperor Yongle, who was in name but her mother-in-law.

This Minghui is really too thick and unbelievable!

Sure enough, after listening to what Mu Lingke said, Emperor Yongle's face was extremely gloomy, and he looked at Ming Hui and asked, "What she just said is true?" ”

"Yes, no, Grandpa Huang, it's because her maid bumped into me, that's why I ......" Minghui knelt on the ground, looking at the disgust in Emperor Yongle's expression, and couldn't finish his words again.

"I abolished her as Princess Zhao because the Xu family had no children, and now it seems that it is too late, she actually taught me such a granddaughter, and taught you this unkind, unfilial piety, unkind and unrighteous thing. What you do today, you have no affection for relatives and friends, no filial piety to your mother-in-law, no benevolence to your subordinates, and no moral foundation for loyal ministers, what face do you have as my county lord of the Ming Dynasty? Passed the decree, abolished the title of the county lord of Minghui, demoted to the county lord, grounded for three months, and was not allowed to enter the palace unless called. ”

Minghui's eyes widened in disbelief, "Grandpa Huang, you actually want to punish Minghui?" ”

"On weekdays, your father has too little control over you, if I hadn't seen this in person today, I am afraid that one day you will forget how to write loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness. Passed the decree, King Zhao's goddaughter was not strict, and she was punished for half a year. After speaking, he didn't listen to what Minghui said again, and only told Concubine Chen Li: "You tell them the rules well, they will get married in two years, this is going out, and it is not our royal face!" After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.

A group of palace maids followed.

After a while, Concubine Chen Li looked at Ming Hui who was still sobbing on the ground, her eyes swept lightly from Qinghui and the others, and when she saw that they were nervous, she didn't speak, she walked all the way from the courtyard to the Tiyuan Hall, and after walking up the steps, she looked down at the people standing below, "What's going on today, causing such a big mess?" When she said this, her eyes were clear.

Among the people present, only Qinghui is a county lord with the highest status, and it stands to reason that she should answer Chen Lifei's questions on behalf of everyone.

Qinghui was already frightened when she heard Emperor Yongle punish Minghui just now, and when she heard Concubine Chen Li's question, she bit her lip and lowered her head, and it took a long time to let go of the hand that was subconsciously pulling the shirt on her body.

It turns out that all the glory and wealth are not born to be able to last forever, it all depends on the preferences of the person sitting in that position, one sentence can make the chicken dog ascend to heaven, and one sentence can make it fall into hell.

It turns out that the reason why the father wants to fight is because he has to fight, and the father and son are still like this, let alone the brothers? If the crown prince and uncle ascend to the throne in the future, can his own family be good? Perhaps, Minghui can still be a county lord today, and when the time comes, he won't even be able to save his life.

From now on, we must listen to my father's words, plan well, and help my father ascend to the throne.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and for a while, the courtyard was quiet, and no one answered loudly.

Finally, the county lord of Qinghui stepped forward, and Fu Shen said: "Back to Concubine Li's words, it was Miss Mu and her maid who kicked the shuttlecock here, Sister Minghui thought it was fun, so she also wanted to play together, and when she kicked, I don't know if she accidentally tripped over the girl, or the girl bumped into her, Sister Minghui has a different identity after all, and if something like this happens, she will naturally punish the maid, but Miss Mu will not let go, so the two argued, you also know, there is no good thing to say about the quarrel, this quarrel was up, and later, Grandpa Huang and you came over. ”

The reason for the statement was vague, and there was no mention that Minghui wanted to slap Mu Lingke's face, and she wanted to give Huoxiang "a zhang red".

Qin Xueyi was unwilling, and Mu Lingke was not angry, but when she saw that Sun Qingyang and Zhao Yaoying both shook their heads invisibly, they were silent and looked down at the ground.

After listening to the reply of the county lord of Qinghui, knowing that she could neither be called Mu Lingke's sister, nor willing to call her aunt by generation, she said vaguely "Miss Mu", Concubine Chen Lifei already knew where this dispute started, and said "oh" noncommittally, her eyes moved away from Qinghui, and looked at Sun Qingyang and Zhao Yaoying.

Sun Qingyang was calm and natural, calmly subjected to the scrutiny of her gaze.

Zhao Yaoying showed a gentle smile, and was a little embarrassed to be looked at.

The corners of Concubine Chen Lifei's mouth turned upward, and in an instant, she hid this smile without a trace, and said coldly: "This is the palace, not the mansion of your family, everything must abide by the rules of the palace, even if the girl is at fault, once her master punishes her, others are not good at talking, if her master blindly protects her, she should also give the palace, how can she shout here in private and provoke the emperor to anger?" The two county lords are daughters, and they should set an example for everyone, not with their general knowledge, Minghui has been punished by the emperor today, I won't say more, Mu Lingke, as an elder, doesn't know how to advance or retreat, Qinghui, as the county lord, doesn't know how to admonish, you two, go back and copy the "Heart Sutra" a hundred times, and calm down. ”

The county lord of Minghui heard that Concubine Chen Li still called himself the county lord, he was ashamed and ashamed, and some hopes rose in his heart. After all, she is the granddaughter of his in-laws, so it is impossible to get rid of it.

Concubine Chen Lifei took a closer look at Huoxiang, who had been kneeling on the ground and had not risen, and said to Mu Lingke: "I heard that your maid can kick shuttlecocks, so leave it to me for a while, okay?" Let her teach the girls in my palace, lest they be inactive all day long, their bodies are not diligent, and their hands and feet are slow. ”

Mu Lingke dared to say that it was not good, and hurriedly responded, "Concubine Li's love for her is her blessing, but this girl is very dull except for kicking the shuttlecock, and if there is anything, Concubine Li has to take care of it." ”

"Don't worry, I promise that when the time comes to spring, I will return you with a full beard and a full tail, and not a single hair will fall out."

Listening to Concubine Chen Li's assurance, Mu Lingke laughed wryly, "Concubine Li, I didn't mean that, you are a bodhisattva, how can I not worry about you here." He turned his head to look at Huoxiang again, "Niangniang wants you to stay here to teach her sisters to kick shuttlecocks in the palace, which is your blessing, don't thank you soon."

"Miss?" Huoxiang, who had been nervously lowering her head, suddenly raised her head, her tone was full of disbelief and fear, and when she saw the reassuring eyes of Mu Lingke and others, she slowly regained her composure and glanced at Concubine Chen Li, "Slave and maid Xie Lifei Niangniang's grace, Niangniang Chitose Jin'an." ”

Concubine Chen Li saw all this in her eyes and smiled slightly: "Hehe, you all say that this girl is blunt, I think she is very clever, but this courage is a little small, and she has to practice." ”

After Chen Lifei said, some people look at Huoxiang again, and their eyes are more playful.

Huoxiang, who was praised by Concubine Chen Li, was looking at the flowing clouds in the sky with a blank face, completely unaware that the hand of fate had pushed her to a completely different path.
