Chapter 125: Accidents
The steaming meal was set on a large table, and Princess Hermine and the Seventh Prince looked at Xie Wanjun and his wife with pleasure on the corners of their mouths.
Su Qing, who was sitting beside Xie Wanjun in a daze, was still a little unnatural, like a child, everywhere Xie Wanjun spoke first and ate first, and he was willing to follow, with some respect, which made Xie Wanjun feel that he was a little rusty.
"Your lover brother has improved greatly, today this princess has a treat, celebrate, His Royal Highness the prince has been invited by me, this meeting is okay, right? Wanjun! Princess Hermine said with a slight joke.
The beautiful eyes under the two willow eyebrows are bent into a crescent moon, and the pear vortex at the red lips shows a happy smile.
Full of smiles, Xie Wanjun didn't know what to say at the moment, the two people who cared the most and helped her the most were in front of her, her heart was hot, not to mention that her own man was almost cured, which made her little mouth have no chance to close at all, and she had been so happy.
"Princess, Your Highness, Wanjun and my husband are grass people, and we can be friends with you, and we have helped you many times, I really don't know how to express it! Thank you both for this drink! The moment she raised her wine glass, Su Qing immediately followed suit, her face full of gratitude.
After killing this glass of wine, the princess first rushed to speak, "Wanjun, you can't be so serious below, and you can't thank you anymore, we are good friends, you helped me, I naturally want to help you, I always talk like this, I can't stand it!" She glared at Xie Wanjun protestingly, blaming her for being too polite.
Before anyone could speak, she immediately looked like a child again, "How about we make a fist and drink?" "Big eyes, innocent.
"Princess, your image!" The Seventh Prince stretched his face and wanted to correct her, but in fact, he was also joking with her.
"What a bullshit image, don't want it today, it's best to be happy!" The pink smiling face is as bright as a peach blossom.
They were eating, laughing and laughing, when suddenly someone downstairs in the tavern shouted, "They're eating upstairs, they can't run!" ”
Immediately afterwards, several officers and soldiers came up surrounded by a county official, followed by a woman at the back.
The woman's face was full of pockmarks, and Xie Wanjun, who was eating, recognized them at a glance, it was the pockmarked woman who wanted to occupy Su Qing.
The county magistrate led a group of people to surround their dinner tables.
"Are you talking about these two people?" The fat county official pointed at Xie Wanjun and Su Qing, asked loudly, and crossed his waist, with an unstoppable posture.
Mazi took a step forward and looked at Su Qing, "That's right, it's them!" They robbed my fiancé! "She still looks very pitiful, more like a victim.
"You are so bold that you dare to rob someone's fiancé, do you know that it is illegal?" The county magistrate shouted loudly, and his voice could be heard throughout the restaurant without even putting anyone in his eyes.
Xie Wanjun slowly stood up and sneered in front of her husband, "Nonsense! This is my husband, have you figured it out? She was even more angry in her heart, this was obviously her husband, but this hemp girl just found here without reluctance.
She was not afraid to open her beautiful eyes, and her arms were folded in front of her chest, and she looked at the county official.
Su Qing was taken away by the official who suddenly appeared at the banquet, which surprised everyone present. Especially Xie Wanjun, who was even more dizzy by the sudden catastrophe, just felt that his brain was "buzzing", his eyes were dark, and he lost his intuition.
The princess called a few personal slaves and maids to send Wanjun to the room to rest, and hurriedly sent someone to ask for a doctor. The princess also asked someone to hurry to Su Mansion to deliver the news.
"Master, wife, it's not good, the eldest young master was arrested by the government, and the young grandmother Wanjun fainted on the spot, and now she is in the princess's mansion." The eunuch of the princess's mansion wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, held his stomach with both hands, stuck his waist, and said breathlessly.
When the old lady Dou heard that her eldest son was arrested, she was taken aback, and the Buddhist beads in her hand were accidentally broken, and the Buddhist beads jumped and rolled on the ground.
Or the old man Su was more calm and calm, comforting his wife while asking someone to prepare a car to go to the county office.
At this time, Lang Zhong invited by the princess's mansion arrived, and checked Wanjun's pulse, saying that it was a hot attack, and there was no big problem.
After some hours, Xie Wanjun finally woke up, and opened her eyes with difficulty to look at the princess who was guarding the side.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, how is Su Qing, I want to see Su Qing." Wanjun grabbed the princess's hand tightly, as if she was holding the last straw in her hand.
"Wanjun, you have a good rest first, Su Qing will be fine." The princess tried her best to comfort Wanjun.
"I'm still not at ease." Wanjun broke free of the princess's hand on her shoulder, struggled to do it, and was about to get up and put on her shoes.
The princess was moved by Wanjun's true feelings for Su Qing, and originally planned to wait for Wanjun's health to get a little better before taking her to the county office, but seeing that people couldn't persuade her, she could only call the personal maid to come over and help Wanjun tidy up her appearance.
"Su Qing, you must not have anything to do."
Wanjun's heart was not in the princess's mansion at the moment, but on Su Qing. When the officials came, they were all fierce and vicious, and Wanjun was very worried that Su Qing would be bullied in the county government.
The princess accompanied Wanjun to the county government in a carriage, and happened to meet Dou and Old Man Su who came from the gate of the county office.
The family helped each other into the county office and saw Su Qing kneeling in front of the hall.
The pock-faced girl next to her was dressed in coarse cloth clothes with patches on them, and her body couldn't stop shaking because of crying.
Mazi knelt on the ground with his face and glanced at Su Qing very affectionately, just in the eyes of the princess.
In the eyes of others, the affectionate eyes of Mazi's face may be an abandoned woman's deep love for a man, but in the eyes of Wanjun and the princess, that look is indeed indescribably disgusting.
"My lord, please be the master of the people's daughter." The pockmarked voice was trembling, and there seemed to be unspeakable grievances.
"My lord, the folk girl and Su Qing's childhood sweetheart, grew up together, and my parents saw that we had a good relationship, so they set this marriage for the two of us."
"But I didn't expect that a serious illness took away my father a few years ago, and the family spent all the money and owed a lot of debts in order to treat my father. In order to pay off her debts, my mother worked day and night, working in the fields during the day and weaving under oil lamps at night. I burned my body and gave up in a few years. Mazi's face was choked with tears, allowing the tears on his face to drip on the ground, and his eyes were already red from crying, and blood was dripping.
At this time, there was a commotion in the yamen, and bystanders who didn't know the truth talked about it, and some even pointed to Su Qing's backbone and scolded him for being a negative man.
Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and Su Qing's fortune is enough to make the neighbors red. This time Su Qing was in trouble, and I don't know how many people are waiting to see the excitement. They can't wait for Su Qing to be arrested, the Su family to be raided, and it is best to end up beheaded.
Probably jealousy is the original sin of people, not seeing others well, and seeing others in distress can't help but fall into the well.
The old lady Dou Shi in the hall trembled by the words of the evil neighbor, the Su family has worked hard all these years in exchange for today's happy life, the Su family has become rich, and they have not forgotten to help the neighbors, but they didn't expect that the Su family is in trouble now, they don't help you speak, even if they still fall into the ground.
"Silence." The county magistrate slapped the shocked wood fiercely.
"Defendant Su Qing, do you have anything to say?"
"Back to the adult, the villain doesn't recognize this pock-faced woman, and it is impossible to make a marriage contract with her childhood sweetheart. The villain only knows Wanjun alone, and she doesn't marry. Su Qing's words were loud.
"My lord, the folk girl has something to say. At that time, the Su family was poor, and our family was quite wealthy, and my father thought that the two of us were good and helped the Su family a lot. Now that my family is in debt, and my parents have passed away, this Su Qing is probably unwilling to repay the debt for me, so he insists that he doesn't know the people's daughter, and he doesn't admit this marriage. Mazi wiped the tears from her face and tried to keep her voice steady.
The pot exploded in an instant, and all kinds of ugly words were heard endlessly.
The county order was once again shocked to keep those noisy people quiet.
The folk girl knew that her appearance was not likable, and she also knew that Su Qing had always liked beauties like Sister Wanjun. The folk girl didn't ask Su Qing to love the folk girl, but she just hoped that she could have something to rely on in the future. Mazi's face was still kneeling, and he suddenly turned to look at Su Qing.
"The folk girl knows that she has always needed the order of her parents to get married, and she shouldn't be cheeky enough to ask Su Qing to admit this marriage. But master, now that the girl's parents are gone, only the Su family knows that we once had a marriage contract. Now that my family is in ruin, I am disfigured again, and I no longer dare to ask Su Qing to marry me, and I love me very much. The folk girl has only one humble prayer to let Su Qing accept me as a concubine, even if she doesn't come to my room for the rest of her life, I can accept it. Folk girls have hands and feet, so they will naturally work by themselves to earn money to pay off their debts, so that they can take care of their in-laws. It's just that the folk girl is alone, and she is often bullied, and she wants Su Qing to admit this marriage, but she just wants to rely on it, and hopes that the master can fulfill it. ”
Almost everyone present was convinced by the girl. There was even some emotion. What a sensible woman, a man who can forgive his childhood sweetheart falls in love with another woman, even if he doesn't care about the position of his wife, he just wants a person to rely on.
The county magistrate in the hall frowned, and he was thinking about how to deal with this case.
"The villain has something to say, the villain really doesn't know this woman, let alone say that he has no guesses, please be an adult." Su Qing struggled to stand up and protest, but was held down by the two officials and couldn't move.
"Diao Min Su Qing was convicted of marriage fraud. This official ordered you to marry a pock-faced girl as a concubine within seven days, otherwise you will be put in prison. ”
Su Qing still protested, and was finally taken away and imprisoned by the officials.
