Chapter 498: Thunder Means, Mighty Scenery
Ximo's words made Yijing more and more convinced that Xiao Xie's family was going to "come out" for An Jin today, which was not conducive to An Ran, and Concubine Qin ...... Of course, he also made up his mind to ask the dog to take the mouse, but he still couldn't figure out the reason for it for a while, so he didn't rush to speak, and just watched the performance of Concubine Qin and Xiao Xie's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Concubine Qin's eyes also looked at the beautiful scenery with meaning, and she didn't wait for a response for a while before she turned away as if bored and looked at the few plum trees planted under the west wall in the courtyard.
The most relieved is to hold the qin.
She unloaded her caution and temper to make a big fuss today, relying on Xiao Xie's will be the master for her, even if she is held accountable, it will be difficult to escape punishment, but Mrs. has a middle feed, at most she will be beaten up, and she will be punished to the bottom Zhuangzi, so she will naturally arrange to go to the property under Mrs. 's name, and she can't stand much suffering, and she will have a better chance to be promoted in the future, or simply have a steward, and I'm afraid that there is no future?
But listening to Ximo's words, it seems that Mrs. is going to suppress Erniang this time and plant the crime in Luoying Courtyard, she will become a loyal protector of innocence and innocence, not only is there no mistake but even merit, won't Mrs. reward her heavily? Maybe even the second master will praise her, and the master is happy to point her a personal soldier, and she has become an official lady after getting rid of her slave status, and she is even more beautiful and rich.
As soon as he thought of this, Baoqin only felt that there was a light in front of him, of course, he had to try his best to be loyal and strive for credit, crying while prostrating his head, and said the innocent words made up again, and insisted that Tonghua claimed to be Erniang's instructions when he smashed the medicine and beat people.
Tonghua saw that the princess arrived with Xiao Xie's hind feet, and she didn't have the fear and scruples just now - the princess is the future housewife of the palace, not to mention the love of the old princess, the prince maintains it in every way, even the prince is trusted, has such a solid backer, and is not afraid of being embarrassed by the lady, although she is the companion of the Xiao Xie family, and the family is in the hands of the lady, after all, it is still in the palace at the moment, and the princess is the old princess to support her, and the lady has nothing to do.
Madame still wants to gain a foothold in the palace and grasp the middle feed, how dare she disobey the old princess.
As long as she shows her loyalty to the princess, even if the second master lives separately in the future, the princess will find a way to redeem her family, compared to the stingy little device of the lady, following the princess is promising, and the hoof of holding the qin is a fool, and the idea of eyesight and insight still expects to be rich and glorious?
Tonghua gritted his teeth and choked up to argue, of course, accusing Baoqin of how to reverse black and white and defile Erniang.
"Shut up, what is the quarrel like, I didn't ask, you talked endlessly." Xiao Xie didn't name him, but his sharp eyes glared at Tonghua, and the target was obvious.
After scolding Tonghua, Xiao Xie looked at An Ran: "Erniang, what's going on?" ”
An Ran raised his eyes and asked Yijing for help, and got a comforting smile, so he calmed down a little in his heart, and told the truth: "I was woken up after taking a nap in the afternoon, and I still don't know what is going on." ”
Xiao Xie chuckled: "In this way, Tonghua is arrogant and has the intention to provoke, smashed Sanniang's medicine and started beating people?" ”
was about to be convicted in a few words, Mama Zhang and Tonghua were shocked, and they looked at the princess in unison.
The beautiful scenery is still a comforting smile.
Jiang Yue's attention has been on Yijing's face, and at this time, she pursed the corners of her lips slightly, and said that she was pretending to be calm, and she was secretly afraid that she was nervously weighing how to refute and maintain her safety.
Jiang Yue completely believed Concubine Qin's words, and thought that Yi Jing had already planned to let An Ran be enthroned, so naturally she would not see An Ran being charged with being arrogant and brutal, hypocritical and deceitful to the king.
But today, how can I not let Yi Jingqiang resign, with Concubine Qin as a witness, An Ran's reputation is a wreck!
So Jiang Yue asked the "human witness" Ximo with a solemn face: "What is going on, I won't go into details." ”
Ximo understood, knowing that her own lady was going to let her testify against Erniang, so she didn't say anything "like": "The slave maid listened to Baoqin and questioned Mama Zhang, Tonghua was instructed by someone to smash medicine and beat people, Mama Zhang scolded Baoqin for defiling Erniang, and then she moved, and Tonghua also rushed out to punch and kick Baoqin...... Erniang came out later, looking at the appearance of waking up, and also scolded two sentences to stop, Zhang Mama and Tonghua ignored it, although Erniang said that she was persuading, the maid of Luoying Courtyard became more and more arrogant, if it wasn't for the lady to arrive in time, I was afraid that these Diao slaves would dare to do it even Sanniang. ”
Although these words did not directly say that Enron instructed his subordinates to do it, the meaning was extremely obvious, if it wasn't for Enron's premeditated collusion, how could the subordinates dare to disobey their masters.
Concubine Qin was not satisfied, and said in her heart that this maid also followed the weakness of the Huang family, and she still didn't say anything, so she couldn't help but ask her maid Ji Yun: "What situation do you see?" ”
Ji Yun is not a slave of the palace, of course she will not have any scruples and be careful, and said with a smile: "The courtyard was in chaos just now, and no one paid attention to it, but the slave saw Erniang open the window of the main room and watched with a smile for a while. When Ji Yun said "this girl", his finger was to hold the qin.
Concubine Qin raised her eyebrows and smiled at Xiao Xie: "Right and wrong are very clear." ”
Xiao Xie sighed, and just said: "An Ran, you call me a second aunt......"
After watching the beautiful scenery for a long time, he spoke: "Second aunt, this matter is not in a hurry, Concubine Qin rarely comes to the palace once, since they are all here, why not take a stroll around the garden scenery of the back garden, there is a Linglong Pavilion in front, and climb the panoramic view of the palace, why don't Concubine Qin take a look?" ”
The implication is that the rights and wrongs of this matter cannot be determined, and it has nothing to do with Concubine Qin, and it is easy to theorize after sending off guests.
Concubine Qin couldn't hold back a sneer: "The princess has the leisure to accompany me to enjoy the scenery this time?" "Just now, I was pushing three and four!
Yi Jing deliberately tricked Concubine Qin's words, her attitude was not so friendly, and she also sneered: "Concubine Qin is here to distract herself today, but unfortunately when she encounters this turmoil, she blames the government for having no way to restrain her, and it is really too bad to disturb Concubine Qin's interest, please forgive me." ”
"There is no way to tie it down", Yi Jing obviously alludes to the fact that the fault is not Enron, but the slave who is in charge of causing trouble, and Xiao Xie, the person in charge of the feeder, is also responsible; "Forgive me" is naturally a polite remark, and there is also irony - if according to the etiquette, Concubine Qin will not only not interfere in the family affairs of the palace, but also avoid saying goodbye under the pretext, and the right and wrong are not determined by an outsider.
Concubine Qin is proud and narrow-minded, but she has always been from a beautiful background, of course she can understand the sharp words, she came with high morale today, just to suppress the beautiful scene, but she did not take advantage of the slightest advantage, the accumulated prestige can not be shaken, I have already held back the anger in my belly, I finally encountered such a good opportunity, how can I let it go, at this time I sneered again and again: "It was the housework of the Chu Palace, and I had nothing to do with it, but it happened that today I heard that the Queen Mother praised An Ran for being quiet and obedient, and wanted to be named the lord of Xian Shun, I heard that I was happy for An Ran, who knew that I was saying joy to my wife, I heard that An Ran had a dispute with someone, and I was suspicious, and said that since the Queen Mother praised An Ran's character, how could An Ran be arrogant? Only then did he ask Ji Yun to come with him to see what was going on. At this time, Concubine Qin looked at An Ran: "You are also the daughter of the clan, how old am I to be you, if you have it, it is also for your good, ordinary people still have to pay attention to kissing and harmony, not to mention the royal family, your behavior today is really against the etiquette law, how can you be praised and expected by the Queen Mother?" ”
Of course, everyone present was taken aback.
An Jin complained bitterly and regretted it again and again, how could she have thought of a plan to meet Concubine Qin, a person who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, to visit, and she didn't expect that An Ran would be the county lord, otherwise she would not use this method anyway, how would it end now? Once he spoke for An Ran, wouldn't he have exposed his flaws, and his heart was hesitant and anxious for a while.
An Ran was even more shocked by the word "county lord", and for a while he put right and wrong aside.
Yi Jing secretly said, "I see", and guessed that Concubine Qin must have thought that she was speaking in the back of the queen, so she asked for the favor for An Ran, and the heavenly family's show of grace became more and more strange and worrying, so Concubine Qin thought that it might not be useless, so she didn't reveal her surprised expression, but just smiled and said: "Since Concubine Qin thinks so, it has to be judged right and wrong in front of you, and you can't let An Ran be misunderstood." ”
Xiao Xie's mother-in-law and Concubine Qin were secretly funny, the servants and women insisted on their own right and wrong, and the key was that Concubine Qin's maid was witnessing by her side, could the princess still find any evidence to refute? Let's see how she decides right from wrong.
Yi Jingchong smiled gently: "Second sister, do you have any provocative instructions for your next life?" ”
An Ran was stunned and said, "Sister-in-law, I really don't have ......"
"That's it." Yi Jing suddenly smiled, his eyes were cold and suddenly, and he looked at Baoqin: "It must be this evil slave who has evil intentions and slanders, and he should be severely punished and betrayed with a rod!" When Xiao Xie wanted to refute, Yijing didn't give her a chance: "There are also younger siblings' maidservants, who are also full of filth and disrespect to the clan, and should be scolded and sold. ”
Jiang Yue was so angry that she couldn't speak, and Xiao Xie was even more angry, blurting out: "What evidence does the princess have to prove that she is the second mother of Baoqin?" Moreover, at the moment, I am in charge of the personnel of the palace, and it is not the turn of the princess to give orders. ”
Yi Jing raised her eyebrows slightly: "Second aunt, do you only believe in the words of the slave and maid and not your family, and no matter whether you hold the qin or cherish the ink, you have never heard and witnessed An Ran's instructing subordinates to provoke, and you dare to blame the lord just based on suspicion, isn't it a slander with suspicion?" The second aunt is in charge of the feed, and she is an elder of Enron, so she will not be so confused and only believe in the words of the slave and maid. ”
Not to mention the clan, even if it is an ordinary noble, there are not a few slaves and maids who convict their masters without evidence, and even the national law has provisions that if it is not a major crime of rebellion, the slave and maid sue the master to impose heavy punishment first.
Seeing that Xiao Xie was speechless, Yi Jing smiled slightly: "The second aunt is in charge of the affairs of the palace at the moment, but I still have the right to dispose of a few slaves and maids according to the rules, and I will naturally show my grandmother later." ”
didn't wait for Xiao Xie to come back to his senses, Yijing looked at Aunt Li: "The two of you will take down the hugging qin and cherishing the ink, and apply the cane punishment, and the ink will be closed after the punishment is closed/the execution room, and then handed over to the tooth man to sell after I show my grandmother." ”
Aunt Li took the order and left, and carried the stunned Huqin and Ximo away respectively, until they came out of the courtyard gate, the two maids came back to their senses, and they were just about to cry and shout grievances, but they only let out a muffled and short wail, and they didn't know what acupuncture points were held hostage by Aunt Li, in short, they didn't hear any more sound.
The princess's thunderous means shocked the slaves and maids in the courtyard silently.
Only one person dared to sneer.
"The princess is so majestic, do you also think that my maidservant is cunning and slanderous, do you want to sell her?"
——Of course, these words came from the mouth of Concubine Qin.
Yi Jingqiao smiled: "Naturally, this slave maid is malicious slander, but she is not the maid of the palace, of course it should be disciplined by Concubine Qin herself, if Concubine Qin is unwilling to bother, the palace trial can also be done for you." ”
Even if the slaves and maids of the prince's mansion are not as noble as the daughters of the clan, it is a violation of national law to slander the clan if they commit the following crimes, and it is also legal and lawful to hand them over to the palace for trial and interrogation.
Seeing Concubine Qin's bare eyes and white face, she was about to be furious, An Jin had an idea-
She finally thought of a way to get both, not only to be safe and innocent, but not to make Xiao Xie suspicious, and to get her wish to create the illusion of breaking with her eldest sister-in-law.
Without waiting for Concubine Qin to question, An Jin just prostrated on her knees and kowtowed: "Sister-in-law, even if Baoqin is at fault, I shouldn't offend the second sister, but she is the maid given to me by my father, and she has always been loyal to me...... begged my sister-in-law to forgive Baoqin this time, don't sell her...... It's because I can't control it, so I connived at it, and my sister-in-law will punish me if she wants to punish me......"
Yijing's eyes flashed, and he said in his heart that An Jin was really witty.
Her words undoubtedly show that Baoqin does have bad intentions, ostensibly pleading, but actually implying that Baoqin is not forgivable.
Yijing stretched out his hand to help An Jin up, but his face was cold: "Third sister, don't take the blame and plead first, I can't stand it even more if I kneel and beg." Only then did he glance at the rest of the servants: "I ask you, but there are still people who think that Erniang instructed the slaves and maids of Luoying Courtyard to oppress Sanniang?" ”
Naturally, no one dares to make something out of nothing.
Yi Jing also ignored Concubine Qin and Xiao Xie's angry eyes, and regarded Jiang Yue as transparent, and only asked Mama Zhang and Tonghua to explain what happened today, naturally this time it was very different, the first person to provoke was Huqin, and the first person to do it was also Huqin, Erniang didn't know at all, and the mediation was ineffective because Huqin was messing around, and even did it to Erniang.
It turned out to be a fact, and there were hugging the qin and cherishing the ink in front of them, and no one dared to refute it.
Yi Jing didn't wait for Xiao Xie and Jiang Yue to come back to their senses and question, and then asked An Jin: "Third sister, let me ask you, do you have any evidence to prove that the second sister provoked first?" ”
