Xiao Yiyi, the little county lord of the King of Nanping, has been standing at the gate of the courtyard and watching, she saw Ye Pei in an afternoon and gathered all the subordinates in the Nanping Palace, and her teeth rattled.

Xiao Yiyi thought to herself: "Okay, you Ye Pei, you really have a set!" Hum! With that, he turned and walked out.

I didn't want someone behind her to stop her, "County Lord, why are you here?" ”

Xiao Yiyi raised her eyes and saw that it was a concubine of her father, named Jiang Yunji.

It turned out that this Jiang Yunji was the bride maid of Xiao Yiyi's mother, and she watched Xiao Yiyi and Xiao Jingrong grow up since she was a child. After Han Jiaonu died of illness, Xiao Shinan has been immersed in the grief of Concubine Yuan's death.

One rainy night, Xiao Shinan borrowed wine to kill his sorrows and got drunk.

Jiang Yunji put on Han Jianu's clothes to serve Xiao Shinan, Xiao Shinan mistakenly thought that he met Han Jianu in a dream, and fortunately met Jiang Yunji, and then had to accept her as a concubine.

Although Xiao Shinan didn't like her to be so clever, he didn't give her any official title. But Jiang Yunji saw that there were no other women around Xiao Shinan, so she thought that she also had some weight in Xiao Shinan's heart, and looked forward to the day when she could be corrected as a concubine.

Who knew that Xiao Shinan went to the Great Song Dynasty, but brought back a new princess, who was still the eldest princess of the Great Song Kingdom. Regardless of identity or status, he can't compare with it, Jiang Yunji is extremely angry.

What's even more excessive is that Xiao Shinan was afraid that Ye Pei would be displeased, so he wanted to send Jiang Yunji out of the house. Jiang Yunji hugged Xiao Shinan's thigh and cried, forcing him to die, saying that he would not leave, so the matter had to be stopped, but the hatred for Ye Pei was buried deep in Jiang Yunji's heart.

What I didn't expect was that Xiao Shinan died in Zhongjing before Ye Pei passed the door, and Jiang Yunji even thought that Ye Pei had cursed her husband to death, and her hatred for Ye Pei was increasing day by day.

The first time Jiang Yunji saw Ye Pei today, she saw that she dismissed the housekeeper Han Zhongbiao, and her methods were old and spicy, and Jiang Yunji was afraid and hated.

As soon as she walked out of the Hujie Hall compound, she saw Xiao Yiyi secretly observing Ye Pei. Jiang Yunji immediately sensed the hatred in it, she knew that Xiao Yiyi hated Ye Pei for Ye Pei to snatch the position of her mother's concubine, and she could use this hatred to help herself drive Ye Pei away.

"Little county lord!" Jiang Yunji called Xiao Yiyi.

"Aunt Jiang."

Jiang Yunji pulled Xiao Yiyi with a smile and said, "Your mother is really powerful, she was so majestic when she first arrived at the palace. ”

Xiao Yiyi glared at Jiang Yunji angrily, "Who are you talking about?!" You are still an old man who served my mother, and you dare to talk nonsense like this! ”

"Don't be angry, little princess, you don't like your new concubine?" Jiang Yunji asked with a smile.

Xiao Yiyi was young and didn't know what to hide, so she looked Jiang Yunji up and down, "hummed" and walked out.

Jiang Yunji saw Xiao Yiyi's state, and knew better, so she walked two steps quickly and chased Xiao Yiyi.

When she arrived at Xiao Yiyi's own courtyard, Jiang Yunji said to Xiao Yiyi seriously: "Little county lord, do you really think I'm ungrateful?" ”

Xiao Yiyi also looked at Jiang Yunji, she was helpless at the moment, and she didn't know how many grievances there were in her heart that no one had to tell. The mother is gone, the father is dead, and the new stepmother treats herself so fiercely, and sure enough, as the legend says, the stepmother is a bad person!

But I have to count on my stepmother to avenge my father, and I can't really turn my face with her, this so-called "sensibility" is too difficult to bear. Xiao Yiyi really wanted to find someone she trusted to comfort herself.

Jiang Yunji took out a purse that she had treasured for many years, and said with tears in her eyes: "The slave doesn't dare to forget the kindness of the old master one day!" ”

Xiao Yiyi looked down and saw that it was a purse embroidered by her mother and Jiang Yunji when she was a child. Jiang Yunji took the one embroidered by Han Jiaonu, and the other one who was exactly the same as this one was here with her.

When her mother was still alive, so many beautiful things came to Xiao Yiyi's heart.

Han Jiaonu likes to do embroidery, but the embroidery is not as good as Jiang Yunji, Jiang Yunji always teaches her very patiently, they always embroider things together, and then compare and laugh

。 Han Jiaonu is good at riding and shooting, and when she races horses with Jiang Yunji, Jiang Yunji always loses, and Han Jiaonu will be as happy as a child.

The two of them personally say that they are master and servants, but they are more like sisters, Xiao Yiyi was often taken care of by Jiang Yunji when she was a child, but it was only after Jiang Yunji tried her best to marry Xiao Shinan that Xiao Yiyi became separated from her.

Jiang Yunji said to Xiao Yiyi: "County Lord, I can naturally see your thoughts, but how can this thoughts be revealed in front of Ye Pei, the Han girl?" Now that I have the means to drive this Han girl out of the palace, would you like to join me? ”

"Really?" Xiao Yiyi showed a look of joy, but immediately said gloomily: "My father is gone, and now I can only count on her to avenge my father." ”

"Does the county lord think that Han girl will be of the same mind as us? Without her, there is still the old concubine, and the old concubine, as the eldest princess of the Qi Kingdom, can't she be the master in the palace! ”

Seeing Xiao Yiyi's hesitation, Jiang Yunji said again: "The prince is young now, but he will grow up soon." We Khitans are adults at the age of fifteen, and when he inherited the throne, why can't he take revenge on your father? It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. It's always more credible and reliable than this Han girl! ”

Xiao Yiyi finally nodded, "Well, what is Aunt Jiang's good way?" ”

Jiang Yunji saw that Xiao Yiyi was moved, and said happily: "Then let's go in and talk!" ”

------

Not to mention what Xiao Yiyi and Jiang Yunji are plotting for, let's talk about this unlucky ghost Han Zhongbiao. Why didn't he show up today? You really can't blame him.

At the wedding banquet yesterday, Han Zhongbiao was touted by several companions and drank a lot of wine. By the time the guests had left, it was already ten in the middle of the night, and Han Zhongbiao commanded his subordinates to clean up the broken tables before finally leaving.

Who knew that he walked to his room on duty in the backyard with one foot high and one foot shallow, and was suddenly knocked down by a stick. When he woke up again, he found himself tied up with five flowers and something gagged in his mouth and thrown in the firewood room.

Han Zhongbiao was angry and hateful, he was thinking about who would dare to do it to him, and at the same time he was trying to find a way to escape. He rubbed on the ground for a long time, and finally rubbed off the cloth stuffed in his mouth. He shouted at the window, "Is there anyone outside?" Is there anyone out there? ”

Han Zhongbiao's voice was almost hoarse before a person came in, and Han Zhongbiao saw that it was Ji Lie, who usually ran errands under his hands.

"Ji Lie, it's good that you're here, come and untie me, I don't know who is so bold as to dare to tie me up, this joke is too big."

Ji Lie smiled maliciously, "Joke? You really know how to tell jokes, who would dare to make such a joke on you? ”

Han Zhongbiao said again: "Hurry up and untie me, I'm going to go to the front to serve, if the new princess has any orders that I'm not there, we won't be able to eat and go around!" ”

Ji Lie's smile was even bigger, "Without Steward Zhou, I wouldn't dare to loosen your ties!" ”

Han Zhongbiao was excited, "What?!" ”

"You'd better stay here honestly!" As he spoke, Ji Lie blocked the cloth ball on the ground into Han Zhongbiao's mouth again.

Han Zhongbiao's mouth was blocked, but he understood in his heart that it was the new princess who had done it to him.

He scolded: "Good for you Han girl! You dare to play Lao Tzu! I want your life! ”

Seeing that Han Zhongbiao was still stubbornly cursing on the ground, Ji Lie picked up an iron next to him and scolded: "You Han Fat Man, you usually act as a prestige, but the new princess doesn't know how to restrain when she comes, you deserve it!" What are you still struggling with here! Let's see what Steward Zhou will do with you when he comes! ”

Han Zhongbiao was even more angry, his eyes were as big as buns, and he scolded Ji Lie again.

"You little rabbit cub, you usually pretend to be a cat in front of me, but now you are also majestic, wait for me to go out and kill you first! You bastard! It's a pity that Han Zhongbiao's curse is just a humming buzz in other people's ears.

Ji Lie just wanted to beat Han Zhongbiao again, but the door of the firewood room suddenly opened, and Zhou Xun brought a few guards from the Great Song Dynasty into the house.

"Steward Zhou, you see that this Han Zhongbiao still dares to curse the new princess here, I will teach him a lesson." Ji Lie hurriedly stopped the iron lift in his hand, ran to Zhou Xun's side and said flatteringly.

Zhou Xun didn't pay attention to him with an "um", but waved his hand, and several guards picked up Han Zhongbiao and walked out.

Ji Lie caught up and asked, "Steward Zhou, where are you taking him?" ”

Zhou Xundao: "I was ordered by the princess to investigate Han Zhongbiao's corruption and bribery!" ”

Ji Lie was anxious to behave in front of the new master, so he said: "Steward Zhou, I know that Han Fatzi has several cases of bribery, and I will take you to his house to search for evidence!" ”

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, "Very good, let's go together." ”

Then, Zhou Xun took Han Zhongbiao and Ji Lie to Han Zhongbiao's house on Tianwangsi Street.

By the next day, Zhou Xun had investigated most of Han Zhongbiao's corruption and bribery and reported it to Ye Pei.

Ye Pei looked through Han Zhongbiao's corrupt account books and a large stack of letters, slapped the table and said angrily: "I can't imagine that this Han Zhongbiao is not only greedy for money and favoritism, but also dares to be corrupt and bend the law, and he actually treats human life like a mustard!" ”

It turned out that Han Zhongbiao once took a murder case in the name of the housekeeper of the Nanping Palace. A family in Xijin Mansion killed a Han person, concealed it and did not report it, and came to ask Han Zhongbiao for peace. Han Zhongbiao accepted the family's silver and went to the government to intercede for him.

The prefect saw that the people of the Nanping Wangfu did not dare to slack off, and the gourd monk judged the gourd case, convicted the Han man as a slave, and insisted that the Khitan family killed the Han slave, and fined him 100 taels of silver, and the case was closed.

Although many ethnic groups have lived together for hundreds of years, the Khitan people still enjoy absolute advantages and privileges.

The Khitans committed the same crimes as the Han Chinese, and the Han people were sentenced to death, and the Khitans were only imprisoned for a few years before being released.

If the Khitans beat the Han people to death, they were only whipped, not condemned to death. If it was a Han slave who was killed, the punishment would be even lighter, and perhaps a small amount of money would be fine.

Ye Pei said to Zhou Xun: "You send Han Zhongbiao and all the evidence to the government of Xijin Mansion, I see what else the prefect can say!" ”

"Yes!" Zhou Xun agreed to go down.

Ye Pei looked at the crackling charcoal basin in the house and thought to himself, this also reflects a big question, why are the Khitans not punished with the Han people for the same crime?

Now that I'm here, I have to change this legacy first!

Ye Pei had some preliminary plans for the future of Xijin Mansion, but he didn't have time to think too clearly. Because the next day she was going to go to Zhongjing Dading Mansion to greet the emperor and the queen mother.
