Chapter 28: Eccentricity is so eccentric that it squeaks
"The concubine is a native of Liang, and she is a guest in this Zhao Wang's mansion, and the prince indiscriminately grounded the concubine. The concubine is naturally unconvinced. Wen Yujiao lowered her head and muttered.
It wasn't loud, but it was heard by everyone.
The concubines and subordinates in the room held their breath and quietly looked at the former crown princess of the Liang Kingdom.
I saw her wearing a light green jacket, her long hair had just been blown by the wind, standing next to the main seat, less than two steps away from King Zhao, her hands were copied in front of her, although her head was lowered, her waist was straight, and her tone was even more resentful.
In the past, even the Jade Concubine didn't dare to talk to King Zhao like this, and Mrs. Chang was even more cautious, this Mrs. Chen was really a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers.
Seeing that she didn't give herself face in front of so many people, Lu Yan's face was gloomy, and he stared at her sideways and said, "Wen, what if you are from Liang?" In Pejon you will keep the law of my Bejon. This king is the heaven of Weizhou, what this king is talking about is the principle of heaven, and it is useless if you disobey it. What's more, this king only grounded you, if it is found out in the future...... That Ice and Fire Scatter is really what you brought to my Zhaowang Mansion, it's not just as simple as grounding! ”
This person was just going to elope with Lu Chi, and he hadn't bothered with her yet, and punishing her for grounding was already tolerant, and he dared to complain!
Seeing King Zhao put down his cruel words, Mama Fang and Lu Zhu were a little panicked.
Mama Fang even thought about whether she should jump out to apologize for Wen Yujiao, but after thinking about it, although her wife was weak on the outside and didn't seem to have an opinion, she had always been clear in major matters, and she couldn't go out to take this crime without consulting her, otherwise it would be self-defeating, but she would be convicted of this crime.
has followed Wen Yujiao for so many years, and Mama Fang and Lu Zhu have been dead set on her, not only because they have followed her since they were in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but also because they know that she is also a master who can be relied on at a critical juncture, and she is affectionate and righteous to her subordinates.
Thinking like this, Mama Fang and Lu Zhu both lowered their heads and decided to leave the matter to Madame to decide.
Chang Xinyue glanced at Mama Fang from a distance, and there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
I thought that this Mama Fang and Lu Zhu were also loyal servants, but I didn't expect that they didn't even have the courage to apologize for the Wen family! I really think highly of them.
Chang Xinyue retracted her gaze and looked at the woman in the green dress calmly. This woman seems to be soft and weak, but she didn't expect her bones to be quite hard.
But there is a sentence that the prince is right, King Zhao is the sky in Weizhou. In this small Zhaowang Mansion, the prince is not only a sky, but also a god.
There is no one in this courtyard who does not surrender under his authority, but the Wen family just doesn't kneel.
Chang Xinyue couldn't understand that in the past, when Wen saw the jade concubine, she was all submissive and cautious, either kneeling or worshipping, but how could she, as a suspect, dare to stand with her waist straight, not even a word of begging for mercy?
Could it be that this woman is relying on the favor of the prince?
A thought flashed, Chang Xinyue suddenly went crazy with jealousy, and pinched the flowers and birds on his sleeves.
"If it is done by the concubine, how the prince punishes the concubine, the concubine has nothing to say. But if it wasn't done by the concubine, no matter how light the punishment is, the concubine will never admit it, let alone convince the concubine. Wen Yujiao still hung her head, but there was a faint anger when she said it.
She felt that she couldn't be wronged anymore. Mei'er was poisoned, and she hadn't even gone to settle accounts with the bad guy, and the prince even wanted her to be grounded, which was simply indistinguishable from wrong.
Thinking that this matter was likely to be framed by Chang Xinyue, she felt even more that Lu Yan was cronyistic and partial.
When Lu Yan heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect this woman to be so arrogant, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he waved his hand tiredly and said, "This matter will be discussed another day, and it will be dispersed!" ”
"Yes!"
Everyone was just about to retire, but Lu Yan said loudly: "Come on, take Miaolan down!" ”
The lights and candles in the hall flickered, reflecting the red and gold butterfly wings on the beams of the room.
Mama Qiu comprehended, and hurriedly called two stout mothers-in-law over, Chang Xinyue opened her frightened eyes and said, "Lord Wang, did you say the wrong name?" Miaolan is a concubine's personal maid, and there is nothing wrong with her being loyal, why does the prince ...... Do you want to take her into custody as well? ”
Lu Yan glanced at the maid beside Chang Xinyue, who was already frightened, and said coldly: "Loyal? If you are loyal, you will not be taught privately by Bihe, and what kind of medicinal powder will be added to your tea! If you really want to heal you, why don't you say it openly? ”
"The prince spares his life! The slave just wanted to try it for his wife, and he didn't know that the medicine was poisonous...... "Miaolan trembled and kowtowed violently on the ground.
Chang Xinyue's teeth were about to be crushed, and bloodshot eyes appeared.
What the hell is underestimating that vixen!
In this game, he was obviously the winner, but instead of unloading Wen Yujiao's right-hand man, his henchman Miaolan was escorted away by Mama Qiu.
But what can be done? Since the prince has already spoken, he will never take back his fate.
The prince is bent on finding out, it seems that today's matter, I'm afraid Chang Zhong will have to come out.
With a decision in her heart, the woman in blue's panicked eyes gradually became firm, and she gave Miao Lan a reassuring look.
Everyone retreated one after another, and only King Zhao Lu Yan, Wen Yujiao and a few servants were left in the palace.
Wen Yujiao waited for Lu Yan to consciously get up and say goodbye, but he didn't expect that he had no intention of leaving, but instead ordered Mama Fang and Lu Zhu to lead Mei'er down first.
When only Lu Yan and Wen Yujiao were left in the main hall, the man in Xuanyi glanced at her unhurriedly and said, "This king stays tonight, why don't you go in and prepare?" ”
Wen Yujiao couldn't believe her ears. This King Zhao's palace obviously grounded himself, but he said that he wanted to stay in the Chunhan Courtyard for the night, what did he mean?
It's as if he had just convicted a man of a crime, but he still had to live under the same roof with that sinner, or even sleep in the same bed.
Wen Yujiao couldn't understand what kind of psychology he was, so she hung her head and said: "The grievances on the concubine's body have not been cleared up, and she is not worthy of serving the prince." The prince should go to Mrs. Chang. ”
Lu Yan heard the coldness in her words, and deliberately raised his voice and said, "This is the Zhaowang Mansion of this king." This king said to stay where you stay for the night, when will you start to be the lord of this king?! ”
His tone was stern, and it spread all the way to the outside of the hall, and several of the servant maids immediately shrunk their necks, too frightened to squeak.
Wen Yujiao rolled her eyes in her heart, turned around and bowed her head, and entered the inner room.
Just cleaned up the sleeping couch and went to the clean room to put water, then he came out and greeted Lu Yan casually: "The water is ready, the prince will go to bathe." ”
