Chapter 16: Calm the Anger
No one knows how Wen Yukou, who was standing aside to serve tea, poured tea onto Dou Guifei, in short, after everything happened, she also looked panicked, the teapot was broken, and she knelt on the steps with a plop, her forehead was red and swollen: The courtier disturbed the concubine, the crime deserves death, please forgive the concubine! ”
Dou Guifei was dizzy, the palace maid next to her wiped the tea stains on her face with a handkerchief, and was in a hurry to change her clothes. She was surrounded by people and left, and a large number of slaves and maids followed, and no one dared to speak for Wen Yukou. The sun shone straight down, scorching, hot, and she knelt in the pavilion, her heart like the sun, and her body like an ice cellar.
Wen Yulan deliberately waited until everyone left, and then moved to Wen Yukou, looking at Wen Yukou as if looking at a poor clown, and her mouth was amazed: "Big sister, this time look at how you can escape, Aunt Guifei cares about her face the most, but you splashed tea on her, both public and private, this time it is impossible to escape a punishment." Hmph, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and biasing towards the tiger mountains, it is you. She shook her head and said triumphantly: "Why don't you beg for mercy from me, apologize well, and swear never to oppose me in the future, I will say a few kind words for you in front of Aunt Guifei?" ”
Wen Yukou's eyes raised slightly, and she glanced at Wen Yulan indifferently: "Second sister doesn't need to speak coldly here, let's think about how to make me more guilty than guilty." No matter how bold I am, when I see my second sister's dedication to me, I will tremble with fear and be disgusted. ”
"You!" Wen Yulan's face sank, "I don't know what to do, I look good with you!" ”
Wen Yulan also rushed away, looking at her angry back, Wen Yukou smiled bitterly and stroked her forehead. Suddenly, a small voice came from the side: "Big sister......"
Wen Yukou recognized Wen Yusheng's voice, followed the voice and looked, sure enough, it was her: "Fourth sister, why are you still here, everyone else is gone, you should go quickly, be careful that the concubine returns and catches you." ”
Wen Yushang had a sore foot and didn't want to be seen that her face was swollen, so she kept hiding in a place where others couldn't see it, planning to wait until there was no one before leaving. I inadvertently heard the quarrel between the two sisters, and realized that maybe Wen Yukou "accidentally" poured tea for her. She was barefoot, the soles of her feet were cold, and she poked her head out to see Wen Yukou's clothes hanging on top of each other on the cold pavilion surface, like a mirror.
"Big sister, did you splash tea on the concubine to save me?" Wen Yushang asked cautiously, expecting something and afraid of hearing something.
"No, my hands are indeed shaking, and it went wrong without checking for a while, and it has nothing to do with you. Besides, the concubine already looked at me badly, so it doesn't matter if there is no such thing, it has nothing to do with you. Wen Yukou categorically denied it.
"Big sister...... It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Wen Yushang knew that even if Wen Yukou had no intention of helping her, this time it was indeed considered to save her, although she was arrogant and arrogant on weekdays, and she was against her big sister everywhere, but when it came to the end, it was still the big sister who could risk death to save her: "I didn't know until today that my pets on weekdays are phantoms." I hurt so badly that the only people I cared about were the old lady and my mother. But what the old lady said was useless, my mother couldn't even speak to plead, I was made difficult and tortured by the concubine, and I didn't dare to say a word, all because I was a concubine who didn't take anything seriously......"
The more she talked, the more aggrieved she became, and gradually lowered her head, Wen Yukou said softly: "I hope that one day, you can understand the real difference between concubines and concubines." Let's go, this is not a place for you to stay for long, someone has already come. ”
Sure enough, two palace maids came from afar, and they were the two people who had just slapped Wen Yusheng. As soon as they appeared, Wen Yusheng, who still had tears on her face, immediately hid, and Wen Yukou was pulled up from the ground by them, and her voice was cold: "Where are you going to take me?" ”
The two palace maids didn't say anything, they looked thin on the outside, but they were actually as strong as oxen, sandwiched Wen Yukou in the middle, and walked away against the scorching sun.
It turned out to be a torture hall.
Dou Guifei, who had already changed into a crimson palace dress, sat in the middle with an angry face, and the old lady and Xie Shi beside her were still bending down to say good things, Dou Guifei was listening impatiently, and when she saw Wen Yukou being brought in, a cold smile appeared on her lips: "Don't say that I don't spare her." The Wen family has a great cause, although I am a woman, but I am also a person who lives in the palace, offending me, it is equivalent to offending the holy Longwei, today I will train Miss Wen on my behalf, and teach the rules in this boudoir! Come on, slap your mouth twenty first, don't smash your face, carefully warm the old lady's distress. ”
The two palace maids went up like this, one pressed Wen Yukou, and the other began to slap her. They are all young and tender-skinned, and they bleed in just one moment. It can be seen that Dou Guifei is just talking, which means that she can fight how she wants. Wen Yukou is also a cold and hard, she doesn't beg for mercy, she doesn't dodge, but whenever the slap comes, her face will follow the palace maid's hand at an angle, so that others will not find out, and you can also protect your face to the greatest extent.
Wen Taijun listened to the slap, almost couldn't stand, the Buddha beads in his hand trembled, and he actually fell by himself: "Guifei Niangniang, stop, the old man promises you with the Wen family's century-old ancestral business, the children have absolutely no offense, otherwise I will be the first to kill them." The sound of the Buddha beads falling was crisp and loud, the Buddha threads were broken, and the round Buddha beads gurgled and rolled away.
Concubine Dou looked at the huge Buddha beads, stretched out her hand, and someone picked one up for her. Solid wood, sandalwood, each carved with a Buddha statue, faintly solemn and majestic. After looking at it for a long time, she found that she panicked in her heart, squeezed it tightly in the palm of her hand, and looked at Wen Yukou, who was beaten and her face swollen at the bottom, and her pupils shrank.
At this time, it had reached the ninth hit, and a palace maid rushed in, saying that General Wen had something to see. After Dou Guifei was in a trance, she came back to her senses and said, "How can there be a gift for the concubine to see the general privately?" Missing. ”
General Wen said that if Niangniang didn't see him, he would keep kneeling outside and waiting for instructions. also said that if the mother avoided it, she could send the woman in to reply. ”
Dou Guifei said coldly: "It seems that General Wen knows the situation here well, and I know that I am punishing her daughter, so I can't help but come to intercede." Wen Yukou, who had been expressionless, changed her expression slightly at this time, and she forgot to turn her head sideways, and received a loud slap in the face, which shocked people's hearts.
Wen Yulan whispered in Dou Guifei's ear and said, "Aunt Guifei, my father is not interceding for Wen Yukou, but for Yushang." He thought we were still punishing Yushang! ”
Concubine Dou was surprised, and then ordered: "Send someone to return to General Wen, saying that I have forgiven Miss Wen, please rest assured." ”
The person who replied came in again and said: "General Wen hopes that the concubine will also forgive Miss Wen, if she does commit an unpardonable sin, when the provincial relatives are over, he will personally go to the fold to ask the saint to make a decision, so as to appease the concubine's anger." ”
