Chapter 157: Trial of Private Relations in Court
Zhang Xuan said: "Mrs. Wang is soft and strong, women don't let me have eyebrows, how can I, Zhang Xuan, be greedy for life and afraid of death, I should indeed take the initiative as Mrs. Wang said, so that the people of the Gu family understand that I, Zhang Xuan, am not easy to bully." ”
Xie Daoyun reminded: "Zhang Gongzi, saying that the Gu family's people are the masterminds is just a guess, you can't get caught up in it, you need to keep your mind open!" ”
Wang Zhen said: "The lady is right, the Zhang family business is so big, there are too many people who covet it, and it may not be the Gu family." ”
Zhang Xuan said: "Whether it is the Gu family or not, we will naturally see you on the way to Huiji." Tang Qiu, let's do it, take care of some people in the past two days, and the day after tomorrow, I will go to Huiji with Tongyun. ”
Tang Qiu said: "Owner, I think Mrs. Wang's plan is too idealistic. In the unlikely event that we encounter a strong enemy on the road, it will be difficult for us to fight the enemy while protecting the owner and the lady! And there are just a few of us, how can we beat each other to the end? ”
Yinying said: "Hey, Tang Qiu, why are you so ambitious and destroy your own prestige!" The work of protection is handed over to me and Jia Banxian, you and Wang Zhen can concentrate on dealing with the enemy. ”
Xie Daoyun said: "The Taoist can't go, the Taoist has to stay in the manor to assist the uncle in guarding the manor." ”
Jia Banxian said: "The old Taoist priest listens to the girl!" Wherever the girl asks the old Taoist priest to go, the old Taoist priest will go! ”
Yinying said: "Huh? Isn't there less of a human being? ”
Xie Daoyun said: "It's okay, Zhang Gongzi and Tongyun are protected by me!" ”
Everyone looked at Xie Daoyun in surprise.
Wang Zhen said with a smile: "The lady has two Golden Bell Dao talismans in her hand, which are enough to protect the owner and Tongyun. I also have a Dao Talisman of Enchantment in my hand, which can be opened in the other courtyard when the time comes. ”
Xie Daoyun said: "Husband is right! In addition, there is a direct official road from Jiankang to Huiji, there are many pedestrians on the official road, and there are not many opportunities for the other party to start, and I will have recovery surgery, which can help everyone heal, so I personally think that the risk on this road will not be very great. After arriving at Huiji, if necessary, I can dispatch the Xie family's soldiers in Shining Manor to come over to help. ”
Zhang Xuan said: "Since Mrs. Wang has thought so much, what else do we have to worry about!" ”
Tang Qiu arched his hand and said: "Mrs. Wang, your words were rude just now, please bear with me!" ”
Xie Daoyun smiled: "It's okay! Tang Gongzi is just doing his best! ”
Zhang Tongyun said movingly: "It's really hard for everyone to help me, I don't know how to thank everyone!" ”
Yinying said: "Tongyun, your business is our business, you don't need to be polite to us!" I'll protect you and help you find your future husband! ”
Jia Banxian approvingly: "You have to believe in the little girl, her thunder lotus is very powerful!" ”
Wang asked: "Lao Jia has never seen the power of Lei Lian, Yinying, are you in trouble today?" ”
Yinying said embarrassedly: "This afternoon, I used Lei Lian to accidentally roast the pigs from the pig farm behind the manor. However, I have become very proficient in the use of secret arts. ”
Zhang Xuan said with a smile: "If this little girl goes down with a thunder lotus, the dozen or so pigs on my pig farm will be gone." Well, thank you for all your hard work here to give me Zhang Xuan's advice, everyone is also tired, go back and rest! ”
On the way back to the bedroom, Wang Zhen said: "Lady, since you are going to Huiji, let's buy some gifts and visit my mother-in-law and my brothers and sisters!" ”
Xie Daoyun admonished: "We can't be too optimistic, we are in the light, others are in the dark, this road is destined to be not peaceful, a little careless, the whole army will be wiped out!" ”
Wang Zhen humbly taught: "The lady has taught you a lesson!" ”
Xie Daoyun asked, "Is the work going well?" ”
Wang Zhen shook his head and said, "It's not going well!" Wang Tanzhi looks down on me at all! However, if I can successfully help Sima Anfu solve the forced marriage, then I will climb a good high branch. ”
Xie Daoyun smiled: "Then, I wish my husband all the best!" ”
At midnight the next day, the little eunuch came over again to spread the word that Princess Yuyao was about to drive to Jianwei Mansion. Wang Tan's heart was bitter, and he led the people of Jianwei Mansion to wait on the royal street again.
Wang Zhen took advantage of the personnel to run out and secretly hid Zhaodi in his public study. Just like yesterday, after Sima Anfu arrived, he was led directly into the official study by Wang Zheng. Zhao Di, who was in the corner, saw Sima Anfu come in and immediately knelt down to pay respects.
After Wang Zhen closed the door, Sima Anfu asked, "Are you that little maid?" Raise your head and let Hongu take a look! ”
Zhao Di crouched on the ground and slowly raised her head to let Sima Anfu see her appearance clearly.
Sima Anfu glanced at it, sat down around the desk, and said, "It looks okay!" What to do, you know everything? ”
Zhao Di fell to the ground and said, "The slave begs the princess to let Zhou Gongzi go!" ”
Sima Anfu frowned and asked, "Wang Zhen, didn't you make it clear to her?" ”
Zhao Di preemptively said: "Back to the princess, Lord Xiao Wang has already made it clear to the slave!" The slave just can't bear to ruin Gongzi Zhou's reputation! ”
Sima Anfu leaned forward and asked with interest: "So, you and Zhou Yixuan do have a personal relationship?" ”
Zhao Di said: "The slave maid and Zhou Gongzi are in love with each other, and they have crossed the rules many times in private. ”
Sima Anfu slapped the table heavily, and said angrily: "Okay, you Zhou Yixuan!" There's enough to be merry! ”
Sima Anfu thought about it for a while, looked at Zhao Di on the ground, changed his face and said, "Silly girl, you can't cheapen Zhou Yixuan and let him take your body for nothing!" Do you want to fool around with Zhou Yixuan for the rest of your life but not get any fame? ”
Zhao Di lay on the ground and listened.
Sima Anfu knew that his words had reached Zhao Di's heart, and a smug smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Silly girl, as long as you make the ugly things you and Zhou Yixuan do public in the court, this palace will definitely let Zhou Yixuan marry you into the door." ”
Zhao Di raised her head suddenly and asked in surprise: "Is this true?" ”
Wang Zhen scolded: "Presumptuous! The identity of the princess is so noble, she naturally speaks in a word, how can you be a slave and maid to question here! ”
Zhao Di lay on the ground and said in fear: "The slave should die!" ”
Sima Anfu stopped the king with a gesture and asked with a smile: "This palace promised to let Zhou Yixuan marry you, are you willing to disclose your relationship with Zhou Yixuan in the court?" ”
Zhao Di lay on the ground and said ecstatically: "Yes!" Willing! Slave willing! ”
Sima Anfu got up and said, "Okay, let's do it!" Move to the court! ”
Wang Zhen arched his hand and said, "Princess, this is not the best!" ”
Sima Anfu asked, "What's better?" ”
Wang Qiandao: "Instead of letting a little maid say it, it's better to let Zhou Yixuan take the initiative to admit it!" ”
Sima Anfu pondered: "Of course, it is better for Zhou Yixuan to take the initiative to admit that he had an affair with the maid, but how to make him take the initiative to admit it?" ”
The king asked: "This maid will not admit it in the court, and the princess can punish her!" ”
Sima Anfu asked: "What if Zhou Yixuan is hard-hearted?" ”
The king asked: "When the time comes, the maid will shake out their ugly things." In this way, it can also let everyone see Zhou Yixuan's personality clearly, and break the Queen Mother's old man's thoughts about Zhou Yixuan. ”
Sima Anfu asked: "What do you think about what Wang Zhen said?" ”
Zhao Di said: "Princess, just do what Lord Xiao Wang said!" The slave also wants to see if Zhou Gongzi is sincere to the slave and maid! ”
Sima Anfu said: "Get up!" You have the same goal as this palace, wait until you go out and follow behind this palace, and this palace wants to see if this Zhou Yixuan is a big radish or a love better than Jin Jian. ”
Wang Zhen opened the door for Sima Anfu, Sima Anfu strode out, and Zhao Di followed closely with his head down. The officials of Jianwei Mansion saw Sima Anfu and Zhao Di walking out of Wang Qian's public study one after another, and they were very puzzled in their hearts, but they did not dare to speak up, and bowed their heads respectfully to Sima Anfu.
Sima Anfu said: "Wang Tanzhi! ”
Wang Tanzhi walked in front of Sima Anfu in small steps, bowed and said, "Princess! Wechen is here! ”
Sima Anfu said: "This palace wants to borrow your court to try some housework, do you have any objections?" ”
Wang Tanzhi immediately said: "The princess can use it at will, and Weichen has no objection!" ”
Sima Anfu said: "Okay! Wang Tanzhi led the way, and everyone else followed the palace to witness it. ”
The officials didn't understand the reason, so they looked at each other, but the princess had to obey her fate, so the group went to the court in a big way.
Sima Anfu sat in the position of the presiding judge as if no one was around, the officials stood on both sides of the hall, and Zhao Di stood under the public case. Sima Anfu slapped the startled wood, and the officials immediately knocked on the floor with a wooden stick, shouting Tang Wei in his mouth, Zhao Di was frightened, and fell to his knees under the hall.
Sima Anfu said: "The people in the hall, report to their families!" ”
Zhao Di said: "The slave maid's surname is Zhao Mingdi, and she is the maid of the internal government of Jianwei Mansion. ”
Sima Anfu asked, "Do you know why I brought you to the court today?" ”
Zhao Di said: "The slave doesn't know! ”
Sima Anfu said angrily: "Bold maid, you dare to be hard-mouthed!" Say! What is your relationship with Zhou Yixuan? ”
After listening to the princess's question, the officials knew that today's incident was related to Zhou Yixuan. However, Zhou Yixuan was of good conduct on weekdays, and the officials couldn't help whispering in the hall.
Zhao Di lay on the ground and said, "The slave maid is just an internal maid, and she has nothing to do with Zhou Yacheng!" ”
Sima Anfu slapped the shocked wood and said angrily: "Bold maid, dare to be hard again and again in front of this palace!" Let's see if Hongu can pry your mouth open today! Come! Execution! ”
Torture is finger pinching, and it is a form of torture that can easily cripple the hands. The officials didn't know where this little maid offended Sima Anfu, so that Sima Anfu used such torture as soon as he came up.
The officials couldn't bear it, and they sympathized with Zhao Di but didn't dare to say anything, because if they angered this unruly princess, they were afraid that they would have to lose a layer of skin.
Two yacha stepped forward with torture instruments and put Zhao Di's fingers into the wooden sticks one by one. Zhao Di trembled with fright, although she had never tasted torture, but in the past two years as a maid in Jianwei Mansion, she has heard a lot about this kind of horrific punishment used to extract confessions, as long as the two yacha pull the rope on both sides later, her hands will be seriously injured at least and crippled for life. Zhao Di is just a teenage girl, if her hands are crippled, then her life will be over, so where is her turn not to be afraid!
