Chapter Sixty-Eight: My Slave and Maid Can't Be Deceived
Pingyang Hou Mansion is one of the sources of popular gossip in White Tiger City, and the deeds of Pingyang Hou's favored concubine and wife are even more crazy in private, but because the current Pingyang Hou has a favorite concubine sister in the harem, everyone is relatively jealous, and only dares to discuss it in private, and no one dares to say it blatantly.
Liu Jiao is the daughter of his wife, she is a genuine daughter of the Hou Mansion, and the former Mrs. Hou of Pingyang is an orphan girl, gentle and elegant, a typical good wife and mother, but it is such a gentle Shuyuan who died suddenly and violently. Externally, it is said that it is an emergency, who believes it
For the yin and private affairs of the back house, who didn't count the mourning period in his heart, and the Pingyang Hou Mansion was in a hurry to raise a concubine into the main room, but anyone who has a brain will automatically make up for a bunch of conspiracies and tricks. It's just that there is no conflict of interest, and no one will be idle to find trouble with the Pingyang Hou Mansion.
Hearing the news, Concubine Liu hurriedly knelt down in front of King Qin and pleaded, "Please forgive the king, it's the concubine who didn't manage her mother's family" Concubine Liu was quite calm, but she was a little anxious in her heart.
Liu Jiao turned a deaf ear to the sudden appearance of Concubine Shu, and still looked at King Qin stubbornly, "Please call the shots"
"Jiao'er, don't be presumptuous" Concubine Liu scolded Liu Jiao's behavior, frowning, her face was slightly ugly, "What's the matter, go home and talk about it, today's national affairs, don't mess around"
Liu Jiao looked at Concubine Liu Jiao mockingly, "Please call the shots, the people's daughter has been carefully considered" Everyone looked at Liu Jiao who seemed to be stunned, she kowtowed desperately, the ground was already full of blood, and her forehead was already blurred with blood.
"Rebel, don't stop talking" Pingyang Hou trembled angrily, he couldn't wait to slap this rebel girl to death, he actually gave birth to such an ugly thing on this important occasion, in front of so many nobles
"People are doing it, the sky is watching, Pingyang Hou, you are still a three-year-old child, how did you send my mother to die at will, you think I don't know the revenge of killing my mother, I don't share the sky" Liu Jiaosen glared at her biological father Pingyang Hou, blood oozing from her forehead flowed down her cheeks, this ghost look made people look palpitating.
"The mother of the folk girl did not die of an emergency, but was killed by someone, I believe that the mother under Jiuquan will definitely not be willing for the folk girl to recognize the thief as her mother, the folk girl is afraid of the thunder and thunder" Liu Jiao looked at King Qin Wuji, and took out a piece of paper from her sleeve, a deed of sale that she had signed and drawn, "The folk girl asked the king to be the master, and the folk girl was removed from the Liu clan ancestral hall" Liu Jiao said word by word, "The folk girl sold her body deed and voluntarily sent it to the lord's house"
"Jiao'er, don't mess around anymore, when are you going to make trouble" Concubine Shu's heart was very nervous, seeing that King Qin didn't stop it immediately, she knew that if she didn't press it again, I was afraid that it would be even worse below.
Mo Feng looked at Liu Jiao like this, and felt that it was very different from what he knew before, and he was heartless and lungless before, but today's Liu Jiao is resolute and paranoid. Mo Feng hooked his lips and smiled, "To determine whether a person died unexpectedly, just open the coffin and perform an autopsy, the corpse will not lie" Mo Feng opened her mouth slowly, but her sudden interjection attracted all eyes again.
"There's no place for a girl to talk here," Concubine Liu glared at Mo Feng with an unkind face, warning Mo Feng not to meddle in his business
Mo Feng ignored Concubine Shu's warning, walked up to Liu Jiao, and took the deed of sale in her hand, "Give it to me" Mo Feng unfolded it, and then nodded, "I'm welcome" Mo Feng looked up at King Qin Wuji, "This is not illegal."
"You, don't deceive people too much" Pingyang Hou looked at Mo Feng so boldly, and a mouthful of blood was held in his throat.
"Pingyang Hou, don't open your eyes and talk nonsense, in front of the king, in front of so many nobles, who would dare to let me drive a knife to make Miss Liu a slave, and I will force you to die Although you are the Hou Ye, you can't wronged a good person like this. Mo Feng folded the paper well, then turned his head and knelt down towards King Qin Wuji.
"Please call the king" Mo Fengxing bowed, "The people's daughter newly accepted the maidservant Liu Jiao, her biological mother, the cause of death is suspicious, please Wang Enzhun thoroughly investigate"
"King Ning, don't deceive people too much" Pingyang Hou spit out a mouthful of blood, turned his head and pointed at Gu Feng, glaring angrily. He can't fight with the juniors, he can only find Lao Tzu, but the other party is King Ning, and when he thinks of this, Pingyang Hou is even more aggrieved.
How could Ning Wang Gu Feng be afraid of him snorting coldly, "Lao Tzu is beating you, he killed you Pingyang Hou, slandering this king with empty mouth and white teeth, but he will be punished"
Concubine Liu's forehead was bruised, and she looked at Mo Feng, "This girl, Jiao'er is just a temporary hysteria, and she can't be counted."
"This lady, Lang Lang Qiankun, sunny and sunny, the king has no reason to object, why do you say that you are bullying" Mo Feng raised his eyebrows, King Qin didn't stop her from accepting slaves, you are a concubine is a fart
"Please ask the king to be the handmaid of the people's daughter, but her filial piety" Mo Feng kowtowed to King Qin Wuji.
At this time, Mrs. Pingyang Hou Ji was pretending to be dead on the side, she looked at the posture in front of her, although she was happy on the one hand, she was worried on the other hand. I am happy that I can finally get rid of this slut, but I am worried about the other party's relentless pursuit
"Concubine Shu, what do you say I should do" King Qin Wuji looked at it for a long time, and then asked Concubine Liu.
Originally, there was a belly of quibbling, but as soon as she heard that the King of Qin asked like this, Concubine Liu didn't dare to open her mouth without permission, let alone explain anything, "rely on the king to decide" Concubine Shu was stared at a little uncomfortable, and she was even more scared in her heart, such a King of Qin made her afraid.
King Qin looked at Liu Jiao, "Give up the most expensive status of the concubine of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, you don't regret it"
Liu Jiao nodded persistently, "Liu Jiao has no regrets" Liu Jiao's hands clenched into fists.
"Mo Feng, I grant your request, but I limit you to three days to find out the evidence, otherwise, you will bear the responsibility for slandering the Hou Mansion, but you are willing" King Qin Wuji looked at Mo Feng.
"The folk girl is willing, but the folk girl begs the king to give the folk girl a convenience, in case the Marquis of Pingyang or the lady concubine interferes arbitrarily," Mo Feng said unceremoniously.
"It's your own business," King Qin Wuji chuckled, and then left with the people.
Mo Feng pursed his lips, glanced at Liu Jiao fiercely, threw a bottle at random, looked at King Ning with dissatisfaction, and threw away the deed of sale, "Trouble Daddy to send someone to go to the mansion." "It takes effect to go to the government office for the record, and she is not a fool.
Concubine Liu was helped up, her face was ugly, but because of King Ning, she didn't dare to say anything to Mo Feng, she only looked at Liu Jiao sharply, "Jiao'er, why are you so obsessed?"
Liu Jiao swallowed a pill thrown by Mo Feng, and looked at this aunt mockingly, "The revenge of killing my mother, Liu Jiao will not let go of any of them"
syllable
Pingyang Hou pounced and slapped Liu Jiao directly, staring at Liu Jiao with bloodshot eyes, "Rebel girl, I should have strangled you in the first place"
"Pingyang Hou" Mo Feng squinted his eyes, and pulled his sleeves very calmly, "Rong Minnu reminds me, this is my Mo Feng's maidservant, as the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, why do you move my maid" Mo Feng glanced at Liu Jiao and looked at the five slap prints, "Liu Jiao, next time let me know that my subordinates are being bullied by others casually, you don't have to live"
Half of Liu Jiao's face immediately became red and swollen, and the five slap blood marks were very dazzling, she hung her head, "Yes, Jiao'er knows, please forgive Miss" At this moment, Liu Jiao, where is there still the kind of laughing and innocent appearance in front of everyone on weekdays
"You" Pingyang Hou held his breath in his heart, and stretched out his hand to slap again.
It's just that when his hand waved, Liu Jiao suddenly reached out and grabbed Pingyang Hou's wrist, which seemed to be light and light, but it could make Pingyang Hou unable to move.
Pingyang Hou's eyes widened, and he looked at Liu Jiao in disbelief, this is a heartless waste wood daughter on weekdays, and this hand is clearly from the hands of the inner family
"Pingyang Hou, this slap has paid off the previous kindness, and in the future, the blood debt will be repaid" Liu Jiao's cold and ruthless words shook the people present.
Liu Jiao, this is Liu Jiao's true face, that playful and innocent, but it is just a trick to coax people.
Concubine Liu looked at Liu Jiao, her heart was chilling for a while, "Let's go" Concubine Shu didn't want to waste time, so she secretly glanced at Mrs. Pingyang Hou, and then left with someone.
Pingyang Hou was thrown off by Liu Jiao, but fortunately he was supported by the people next to him, his face was pale, and he was helped away in a distraction.
Mo Feng looked at Liu Jiao beside him with a smile, "First cut and then play, Liu Jiao, you say, how should I punish you" Mo Feng asked gloomily.
Liu Jiao hung her head and pursed her lips tightly, "But according to Miss's orders"
Hmph duitous Mo Feng glanced at it, this kind of thing happened at the altar, King Qin didn't have a thunderbolt and was angry, which made Mo Feng a little surprised, but the top priority now is to find out the evidence within three days.
"I'll settle accounts with you later" Mo Feng exhaled deeply, "Let's talk about it" She is about to go to the sea, naturally she has to fulfill her promise, otherwise, she really can't eat and walk around
Liu Jiao's eyes lit up, and a smile immediately climbed up her face, full of hope to explain her views in detail.
Such a Liu Jiao, such a happy Liu Jiao in her heart, is really possessed by a ghost in the eyes of people
In a place not far from the altar, an inconspicuous carriage was parked, and someone hurried into it, and in the carriage was sitting a mysterious nobleman.
After listening carefully to the visitor's reply, a faint smile flashed on the cold face of the noble son, "It turned out to be a quick temper" The noble prince hooked the corners of his lips, moved his slender fingers on the desk, and commanded a few words to the visitor.
The man looked at his master in amazement, a little incredulous, but quickly returned to normal and was ordered to leave.
The noble prince touched his chin, but his eyes drifted to the direction of the altar, three days of hard work, hehe.
Concubine Liu Jiao did not rush back to the palace, but followed her to the Pingyang Hou Mansion, the atmosphere of the Pingyang Hou Mansion was sluggish, and the people were waiting carefully, and they did not set foot in the main courtyard as much as possible.
The furious Pingyang Hou had already smashed several tea saucers, scolding and scolding in his mouth, and jumping like thunder, and the maids who passed by the door were trembling, for fear of being implicated.
"Evil girl, evil girl" Pingyang Hou was panting, his eyes were bloodshot, and the bloodshot was exposed one by one, "When she was born, she should have been strangled"
"She has planned this a long time ago, sister-in-law, as the mother of the Hou Mansion, you didn't even notice it at all" Concubine Liu complained to Mrs. Hou of Pingyang, very dissatisfied.
The step-lady was full of grievances, "Niangniang also knows her previous temperament, who knew that she hid it so deeply and deceived us all" The step-lady muttered, and when she saw the gaze of the concubine, she quickly stopped.
"Reverse girl" Pingyang Hou vomited blood angrily.
"Well, now is not the time for my brother to be angry. Shufei Liu took a deep breath and frowned, "This matter, we must think of a foolproof way, fortunately, the king only gave three days, these three days, we must let the other party return in vain" Shufei Liu's eyes narrowed, and a wave of anger was released on her body.
Pingyang Hou raised his head, "What else can I do now" Pingyang Hou frowned, "It has been dealt with at the beginning, and no evidence should be found" Pingyang Hou's eyelids suddenly jumped, "The corpse, even if it is a corpse, has long become a handful of white bones, what can be found"
Concubine Liu didn't know much about the doorway here, "Brother, the original person, I am sure that the mouth has been extinguished" Liu confirmed again.
Pingyang Hou nodded, "Naturally" thinking of today's bad things, he secretly regretted cursing, "I shouldn't have kept it in the first place"
"Auntie, Daddy, Mother" At this time, Liu Mei walked in from outside, looking a little anxious.
"Mei'er, you go back to the house first" Mrs. Pingyang Hou saw that it was her own daughter, where did she dare to let her stay here longer, and immediately scolded.
"I have something to say" Liu Mei swallowed her saliva, "Daddy, someone told me that what Mo Feng said is not without evidence, if a person was poisoned to death in the first place, even if it was a bone, it could be found"
Pingyang Hou Ji's wife's face sank, "What do you know, don't go back soon"
"Slow" Concubine Liu looked at Liu Mei, "Who told you this"
"Just now, a friend just said that she wouldn't lie to me. Liu Mei frowned, "If my aunt doesn't believe me, you can ask her in person, and she will be waiting outside." ”
Concubine Shu pondered for a moment, "Bring her in." Turning his head to look at Pingyang Hou and his stepwife, "The brother and sister-in-law flashed first. ”
After a while, a woman wearing a hood walked in, and when she saw the people in the room, she was stunned for a moment.
"Sister Yue, this is my aunt" Liu Mei stepped forward affectionately, with a smile in her eyebrows.
"Mingyue, a folk girl, meet the lady concubine" Mingyue bowed, "Please forgive the mother, because the people's girl has an ugly appearance, and she is afraid of staining her eyes, so she can only cover her face"
"You are Mingyue" Concubine Liu looked at the woman in front of her, although she couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly, but listening to the other party's Qingli voice and this figure, she knew that she was not an ordinary person, and when she saw Liu Mei nodding to herself, it was a pity that she was disfigured.
The name Mingyue, although she has lived in the deep palace for a long time, she heard some rumors by chance, "You are from the medical department of King Ning's war department, and you want to come here to study some medical skills." ”
"Mingyue has been an apprentice for several years, and she can't be called specialized, but she also knows something. Mingyue took a deep breath, "It's not a secret, Mingyue and Mofeng have some grudges"
"This palace will listen to you," Concubine Liu nodded.
After a long time, listening to Mingyue's words, Concubine Liu's heart jumped like thunder, and there was such a way to secretly clench her fists, and a trace of resentment flashed in Concubine Liu's eyes, "Since she is ruthless, don't blame us for being unintentional" A fierce aura shot out of her eyes.
"What do you want" Concubine Liu squinted at the person in front of her.
The ugly appearance hidden under the silk veil pulled out a monster smile, "Helping you is helping myself, Mingyue only hopes to see the day when Mofeng fails" Mingyue finished speaking, turned around and left.
Concubine Shu asked Liu Mei to give it away, and at the same time asked the Pingyang Hou couple who were hiding behind to call out, the two of them were already pale, and they were obviously frightened by what they had just learned.
"Brother, you can't delay, the bones must not fall into Liu Jiao's hands," Shufei Liu said eagerly.
"Okay, okay, I'll go and arrange manpower" Pingyang Hou dared to delay and trotted away.
Leaving Pingyang Hou Ji's wife a little timid to stand aside, bearing the gaze of Concubine Shu alone.
"Sister-in-law, if you can't manage the back house well, naturally there will be many people who want to take care of it" Concubine Liu said indifferently.
Mrs. Pingyang Hou Ji's body trembled, "Niangniang, Niangniang forgive my sins, I, I know, I will take strict care of the back house in the future"
"In the future, let Mei'er go to the palace more often, and tell my brother that the palace will return to the palace first" Concubine Liu took people away.
Mrs. Pingyang Hou Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and the person suddenly collapsed on the chair, she covered her heart, constantly calmed herself, and silently thought in her heart, God blessed, it must be smooth, it must be smooth
Back at the mansion, Mo Feng listened carefully to Liu Jiao's words, frowning, she felt that she was a little too impatient this time, "After so many years, the corpse has long been turned into white bones, but, listening to what you say, it must have been poisoned" Mo Feng nodded.
"Ding Ya" Mo Feng shouted, and then said to Liu Jiao, "You tell Ding Ya the address of the grave and get the bones out as soon as possible."
Liu Jiao glanced at Ding Ya, and then nodded, "At the beginning, they were thieves, and they didn't let their mother enter the ancestral hall, and the bones were buried outside the city, I know that place" Liu Jiao frowned, "It's better for me to take it, it's convenient." ”
Mo Feng nodded, "Go quickly, go back quickly" Watching the two leave in a hurry, Mo Feng propped his chin, and a dark light flashed in his eyes. As soon as he came, he made a big enemy for himself.
The matter of the altar soon spread throughout the entire White Tiger City, and everyone talked about it, and the Shen family was a witness to the scene, and it didn't take long for Shen Yao to come to visit.
Seeing Mo Feng's calm expression, Shen Yao was very entangled in his heart, "Isn't my little aunt worried at all" He thought of comforting words, but it was useless, "guess poisoning"
"Disappointed," Mo Feng raised his eyebrows.
Shen Yao: "It's really bold
