Chapter 50 Rectification of Diao Slaves
Meng Chun 16, in the snowstorm in Jicheng, I have not been able to look forward to the news of General Qian Xu's triumph, but I was the first to know about the Jiangbei White Disaster, which caused thousands of houses to be destroyed and countless deaths and injuries to people and animals in Jiangbei who lived on animal husbandry.
At this time of crisis, the courtiers called themselves sick, and the pretexts were excuses, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to take on this drudgery!
Although Yin Linxi's father was very sad that no one was available, he was quite helpless, and after thinking about it, he hurriedly summoned Yin Linxi into the palace.
As everyone knows, at this time, Yin Linxi has not slept well for three days in order to think of disaster relief measures.
Now that this is gone, I am afraid that the drudgery of disaster relief will fall on him nine times out of ten!
After Taoxin learned about this, she sympathized with me, but the newlywed Yan'er was about to be separated from Yin Linxi, and she was afraid that I would be sad because of this, so on such a snowy day, she pulled me to the promenade by the courtyard by going out to see the snow.
"Princess, look how beautiful this snow is!" Momoxin chuckled very deliberately, reached out to catch the snowflakes falling from the sky, and couldn't help but shiver when the snowflakes fell on the palm of her hand and quickly turned into a puddle of water, and her little face shrank slightly.
I couldn't help but look at her like that, snatched her hand back, and sneered, "You stupid girl, it's been snowing for so many days, haven't you seen enough?" β
"Hehe..."Momo Xin touched the tip of her nose that was frozen to a little red, and grinned, "Because it is rare to see snow in Haozhou!" β
I shook my head helplessly, but she was telling the truth, although the winter in Haozhou was very dry and cold, it was rare to see snow due to its location in the south, not to mention the heavy snow that had fallen for many days.
Seeing that I looked unimpressed, Taoxin's face finally darkened, "Princess, I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to be sent to Jiangbei for disaster relief?" β
"Hmm... Probably. I slowly sat down on the stone bench in the corridor, and a chill instantly swept over my body, and I couldn't help but shiver a little, and when I got used to it, I didn't bother to get up, just squinted at my heart.
This Nizi's face became more and more heavy, "It seems that this matter is true!" β
I couldn't stand her sympathetic gaze, so I reached out and pulled her to sit beside me, until she shivered with cold, and I giggled as if she had succeeded in her prank.
Annoyed her, "Princess! β
"Who told you to look so serious?" I cleared my eyes, my fingers restlessly touched a dragon cypress that was not covered with snow on the edge of the corridor, and continued, "Yin Linxi is going to Jiangbei for disaster relief, and it's not that he won't come back, what is there to worry about!" β
Taoxin sighed, and her watery eyes were clearly full of disbelief, "Jiangbei is in trouble, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is ordered to go at this time, does the princess really not have the slightest worry?" β
After listening to her words, I touched the fingers of the dragon's cypress and foliage, and I was noncommittal.
Taoxin smiled comfortably, "Look, the princess still has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in her heart!" β
"Mouthy!" I withdrew my hand from the cypress and gently landed a chestnut on the top of Momoheart's head until she playfully stuck her tongue out at me!
At this time, two servants ran out of the backyard in a panic, and after seeing me from afar, they were even more like seeing a savior, rushed over and knelt beside my lap, and said uneasily, "Princess, help!" Ask the princess for help! β
I looked at the two on the ground suspiciously, except for the panicked breathlessness on their faces, but I didn't see where they needed my help.
"Bold! The crown princess is so flustered in front of her, is there any rule? I saw that Tao Xin, who was originally sitting next to me, had bounced up from the stone bench in the corridor at some point, and was looking at the two trembling people on the ground with a straight face, and their round faces were full of majesty.
This is the second time since I was in Huayin Hall that I saw Taoxin put up a shelf with a personal girl.
After the two of them heard Taoxin, their thin bodies didn't know whether they were cold or frightened, and they trembled even more.
After a while, I heard one of them say, "Please forgive the crown princess!" The two younger brothers are the husbands in the house, and it is really not our intention to collide with the princess today, but this is a matter of human life, I hope the princess can uphold justice for our brothers and sisters! β
What is at stake? Three brothers and sisters?
I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows, and then asked, "Tell me, what is so serious?" β
The two brothers glanced at each other, and hurriedly prostrated at my feet and kept kowtowing, "Please save my sister's life for the sake of my sister who has served you for a few days!" β
"Late?" I stood up from the side of the corridor in shock, and Peach Heart hurriedly came over and hugged me, "What's wrong with the evening?" β
When the two brothers saw my surprise, they simply knelt on the ground and cried with a handful of snot and tears, which made me impatient for a while, and roared, "Don't cry! What does a big man look like when he cries? Hurry up and say, what's going on? β
Seeing my thin anger, the two brothers stopped crying, and said with teary eyes, "Wan'er has been widowed every day since he was transferred back to the room, and he feels like he can't give up what he does. The boss tied up Wan'er in anger, saying that he was going to beat her until she agreed to marry him! It's a pity that our brother's strength is meager, and even such a little sister can't protect him..."
After that, the faces of the two brothers showed expressions of sadness, helplessness and self-reproach.
"What?" I only felt a surge of blood in my chest, and my fingers subconsciously clenched the iron, "There is such a bastard in the house?" Where is he? Do you dare to turn the sky upside down? β
The two brothers wiped the tears from their eyes, looked at each other again, and then quickly got up and made a gesture towards me to lead the way and said, "Crown Princess, please move this way with us." β
Led by the two of them, we walked through the courtyard in the wind and snow, and soon came to the outside of the room, and to my nerves, a man's crazy laughter was coming from the room, mixed with the hysterical screams of the night, and the mournful tone was drowned in the deep courtyard by the snow, and there was not the slightest ripple.
"The princessβ" The two brothers stood by the door, and when they saw me nodding, they suddenly broke in.
The man inside seemed to be angry at the two brothers who suddenly broke in, and said violently, "You two bastards, who let you in?" It's all tired and crooked, isn't it! β
"Who do you say is crooked?" I stepped through the door quickly and glanced coldly at the man in charge.
It wasn't until he saw that it was me that his face suddenly changed from a horizontal brow to a panic.
At this time, the two brothers relied on my support, and they had enough confidence, and when the man in charge of the room was defenseless, the two of them simply set him up on the left and right.
"Who do you say is the crumb? Who is tired of living again? My eyes glistened with coldness, and my lips opened coldly.
When the head of the room came back to his senses, his originally frightened face had regained his calm for a moment, and a dark and cunning face smiled flatteringly, "Ouch, look at my stinky mouth... The crown princess is here, and my room is really brilliant! β
The man in charge of the room smacked his mouth.
I looked at that very nasty face, and sneered, this guy is a good steerer in the wind, and dare to listen to his tone, and the house has become his home.
But I didn't eat him, I just thought that I would settle accounts with him later, and then my eyes wandered, and I searched for the figure of the evening in the room.
Until a weak murmur came from behind the door, "The crown princess... Mother. β
"Late?" I slammed open the vermilion door, but I was startled and took a step back, and Peach Heart took the opportunity to hold my figure.
I saw that on the pillar behind the door, Wan'er was tied up with five flowers, her hair was extremely messy, half of her face was swollen as if she had put two steamed buns, her eyes were purple, and her body was even more bloodstained.
"Princessβ" she whispered to me as if she were complaining, and then two lines of tears flowed from her eyes.
I looked at her, and I could only feel the anger churning in my chest, like an iron furnace under too much pressure, and I couldn't breathe.
But this feeling is not only my regret and self-blame, after all, when Taoxin was sad, I couldn't keep her when I was transferred away later.
"It's all my fault, if I hadn't insisted on keeping you, you wouldn't have been transferred back to the room..."I leaned over to her in a daze, but the corners of my mouth were pulled at the corner of my mouth on my aching face, and I gently raised a smile and shook my head.
Then, Peach Heart casually found a kitchen knife from the board and cut the rope that bound Wan'er, causing her thin body to sway for a while, and fell straight into Peach Heart's arms.
"Princess..."At this time, Momoshin took off her coat to wrap her trembling body, and gave me a reassuring look before I nodded and turned around.
Walking quickly towards the still unimpressed guy behind him, the rage prompted me to slap him several times in a row...
It wasn't until my fingers hurt that I grabbed him by the collar, gritted my teeth and said fiercely, "Say, who gave you such courage to dare to lynch, do you know that this is the prince's mansion!" β
Unexpectedly, this palm is actually a master with no skin and no face, although he was slapped a few times by me, he didn't snort, and he was not afraid to see me angry, but he sneered at me, "Don't be angry, it's not worth it to be angry for a little girl!" β
"Whew!" I spat hard, secretly saying that this guy is really a stinky shameless, just because you still want me to be angry for you? What are you kidding, I'm just trying to get justice for my son.
After a moment of silence, I grabbed the fingers in charge and let go, and turned to look at the two brothers behind him, "You two, what are you waiting for?" Tell me the order, and when I see which of this slave's hands has touched the night, I will cut him off for me! β
After I said this, the result was obvious, and the face of the person in charge could no longer hold back, revealing timidity, and trembling, "The crown princess... It's just a punishment for a dog slave who does his work and cheats, you can't do this to me! β
"Smack!"
With that, my palm fell on that dark face again.
"Sneaky? Dog minion? I sneered, looked at him as if inquiring, and then said expressionlessly, "Aren't you also a dog minion?" β
The face of the person in charge changed, maybe he knew that his matter was big, so he simply knelt on the ground with a thud, "The little one should be damned, the little one is guilty, I beg the princess Niangniang not to remember the villain, spare the little one!" β
"Spare you?" I snorted coldly, and the corner of my eye glanced at the two elder brothers in the evening, "You say... Should I spare him? β
The two brothers looked at each other, and then followed the hand of the person in charge of the house, and simply knelt on the ground, "The princess is clear, it is not that we have a personal vendetta, but that the person in charge usually loves to deduct our monthly salary, and often fills his private pocket and goes out to drink flower wine with the silver bought in the house, otherwise it will be full of people. β
"Oh?" I looked at the head of the room with interest.
It wasn't until there was nowhere to hide in his face that he was angry and wanted to fight back against the two brothers behind him, "You two are spewing blood here!" I'll kill you! β
The head struggled to get up, his dark face turned red with a violent look, and the ten bent as if he wanted to kill all the people in this room in the next second, but the two fists were invincible to the four hands after all, and he struggled desperately, but he still didn't break open half a point.
And looking at the scene in front of me, I lost interest, just waved my hand and said to the two brothers, "This arrogant and domineering dog slave lives in the world and leaves a scourge in vain, pull him down for me, and kill him with a cane!" β
After that, both of them were stunned, and at this time, there was no trace of reason in the tyrannical face of the charge, but they just stared at me with a pair of terrible eyes, cursing and insulting without words.
I didn't really care, but I felt that it was noisy, so I glanced behind him and asked him to drag this guy down.
