Sigh on a moonlit night, Hu does not return Chapter 457 The Criminal Department invited Li Gongzi to intercede with the princess
Ye Yaoqin originally thought that the maid invited Li Jia over, and the husband and wife discussed what should happen next.
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden "whoop" in the courtyard, which scared her, and the gilded plum hairpin in her hand fell to the ground.
"Who's yelling outside?" Ye Yaoqin said dissatisfied, "Why don't you hurry up and get me in!" ”
A mother-in-law came in tremblingly from outside, knelt on the ground and said, "Mrs. Qiyu, just now the little maid in the concierge asked people to come over, saying that there were many officials in red clothes from outside the mansion gate, and they surrounded the mansion gate......
Ye Yaoqin was stunned for a long time and didn't react, "What are you talking about, there is an official from outside the mansion?" ”
No one dares to wear red even if it is an official errand, and no one dares to wear red on it.
"Has the master woken up?" Usually when this kind of thing happens in the house, as a female dependent, she will be the first to think of her own man.
"It's not ......" The little maid on the side lowered her head, "Chun'er, who went to the study to call the master up, hasn't come back yet......"
Ye Yaoqin felt like she was holding her breath in her heart, "Go and send someone to the door to inquire, what's going on with those people, dare to come to our house and pretend to be an official, do you think we are easy to bully?" ”
The mother-in-law immediately responded and retreated.
Ye Yaoqin stood up and glanced at the people in the room dissatisfied, "What are you doing standing here stupidly, why don't you hurry up and serve me to change clothes, I'm going to the master's study!" ”
Ye Yaoqin had just cleaned up and stopped, and before she could leave the house, she listened to the mess in the yard.
"What's the noise!" She shouted impatiently.
"Madam, no, those officials broke into the house and said it was ...... said that he was going to find the master to go to the criminal department for questioning. ”
Criminal Department!
Even if Ye Yaoqin didn't know anything else, she knew what was going on in the Criminal Department.
Li Jia is not an official of the imperial court now, at most he can only be called a staff member in the palace of the three princes, how can the criminal department find him?
The maid beside her helped her out of the door, and just walked into the courtyard, only to see a group of officials in red clothes breaking into the outer courtyard.
When Ye Yaoqin saw it, her head buzzed.
Only those who have never seen the world will admit their mistake, what big red clothes...... These people are obviously wearing flying fish suits, they are brocade guards!
"Mrs. Lee." The commander of Jinyiwei made Yan Qishan step forward, "I am ordered by the regent to invite Li Jia to the criminal department, there are some things to ask him, please make it convenient for my wife." ”
Ye Yaoqin clutched the handkerchief tightly in her nervous hands, and the soles of her feet were so stiff that she couldn't move a step.
Yan Qishan saw Ye Yaoqin's appearance, so he didn't pay attention to her anymore, he had already said what should be said in the scene, and the next thing was to do things according to the rules.
He waved his hand, "Please Mrs. Li come into the house and rest." ”
Several maids around Ye Yaoqin were already frightened, and when they heard Yan Qishan say this, they immediately dragged Ye Yaoqin back to the house.
The courtyard was full of brocade guards, and their female dependents were not easy to go out to show up, so they had to send the mother-in-law in charge from time to time to inquire about the news.
After a while, the mother-in-law came in and said, "These officials went to the master's study, but the master drank too much wine yesterday and hasn't woken up yet." ”
"And then!" Ye Yaoqin urged.
"And then......" the woman looked dazed, "and then they saw that they couldn't wake up the master, so they directly let the master carry him away." ”
"Did they say that they wanted to take the master to the criminal department because of something?"
"They didn't say it, and the slaves didn't dare to ask." Mother-in-law said honestly.
Ye Yaoqin grabbed the teapot on the table angrily and threw it towards the woman.
The mother-in-law didn't pay attention, and was hit in the head by the teapot, although there was no bleeding, but the forehead was bulging with a big bag.
"Get out! Get out of here! Ye Yaoqin said.
How can the people in this mansion be as good as the people in the former Zhenguo Mansion, they are like some hillbillies, not only do they not even recognize Jinyiwei, but they don't even know to report to Li Jia in advance, even if they let him hide first and lie that he is not in the mansion...... Now that everyone has been taken away, she doesn't even know why she came to arrest him in the house, how can she not be angry.
She was thinking wildly in her heart, the door curtain sounded, and Li Jia's eldest sister Li Yuan walked in with the old lady in her arms.
When Ye Yaoqin saw them, her heart couldn't help but sink to the bottom.
Whether it's the eldest sister or Mother Li, these two obviously don't like her very much, especially Li Yuan, who said bad things about her in front of Mother Li when she had nothing to do, and the maid behind her had told her several times.
"I've seen my mother, I've seen my sister......" Even if she was reluctant, she had to stand up and give a salute.
Li Yuan walked over and raised her hand to slap her cheek.
"Smack!" With a sound on the ground, only Ye Yaoqin was hit with Venus in front of his eyes.
Ye Yaoqin, who came to her senses, stared at her eyes, "You dare to beat me......" She gritted her teeth and said, in the past, in order to be a good wife and mother in front of Li Jia, she was very tolerant of this eldest sister, but the slap just now really hooked the fire in her heart.
Li Yuan is not good at ballast, and her backhand is another slap in the face.
Ye Yaoqin stumbled and fell on the Luohan bed.
"What's wrong with me hitting you?" Li Yuan pointed at her with his hand, and said angrily: "Our Li family has been unlucky since we married you, my brother has now been arrested by the Criminal Department, and you are dressed up in the house, thinking that after my brother dies, I will marry that wild man!" ”
"Who's going to marry a wild man!" Ye Yaoqin was also angry, "If I hadn't begged my father for help, where would your brother have come from on an errand, and still want to enter the palace as an errand, I'll phew!" I don't want to be cold for ten years but I don't have the money to make a way into the palace, I think you are the death star, even your own man has died, you deserve to be a widow! ”
Li Yuan usually taboos others to mention the word "widow" in front of her, but now Ye Yaoqin scolded her in front of her, she jumped up all of a sudden, grabbed Ye Yaoqin's collar and raised her hand to beat her.
"Okay, you little slut, it's usually my brother who spoils you, and you don't even understand the rules, I'm going to let you know today that you know how powerful ......"
Ye Yaoqin was not to be outdone, and in a blink of an eye, the two women in the house scuffled together.
Mother Li's hands trembled, "Stop...... Stop it! ”
But no one listened to her words at all, and the maids in the house were all frightened and hid aside, and only her personal maid by Ye Yaoqin's side knew to step forward to protect the master.
But that Li Yuan went crazy and was comparable to a shrew, even if Ye Yaoqin joined forces with her maid, she couldn't get the other party alone.
In the end, if it weren't for Mrs. Li rolling her eyes and seeing that she was about to faint, the two sides were afraid that they would be able to fight until noon.
"Get down on your knees!" Mother Li said angrily.
Ye Yaoqin didn't want to kneel, but Mother Li's eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire, she is now married to the Li Mansion, and she is a person from the Li Mansion no matter life or death, so she finally relented and knelt down honestly.
Li Yuan was not as honest as her, and flattered her stepped forward to beat the old lady's legs, "Mother, don't be angry, I'm also worried that my younger brother is just impulsive." ”
"The top priority at the moment is to first inquire about why the Criminal Department wants to arrest people." The old lady said.
"I heard from someone just now that those people are from the palace, and they came to take people on the orders of the regent." Li Yuan said.
"It's the brocade guard in the palace." Ye Yaoqin reminded, her tone could not hide her contempt.
Li Yuan glared at her, and Ye Yaoqin looked back without fear.
"Enough!" The old lady slapped the table impatiently, and Ye Yaoqin and Li Yuan lowered their heads at the same time.
"Since the regent is mentioned, let's let Yaoqin run away." Old Madam Li looked at Ye Yaoqin eagerly, "The princess regent is your cousin, you are a sister who goes to visit your sister, no one will stop you, right?" ”
When Ye Yaoqin heard this, she felt so aggrieved in her heart, even if she was pinching Li Yuan and the others, she was not so depressed in her heart, the last person she wanted to see in this world was that Ye Zhiwei.
