Chapter 79: Georgie (5)
The third prince got up from the soft body on the bed, hummed a little song, put on his clothes, shoes and socks, and walked out slowly. He stood still in front of Deng Mian under the door panel, slapped him in the face twice, and "Open your eyes." ”
Deng Mian trembled, his eyes were full of red bloodshots, and his eyelashes were wet.
"Go and tell Chu Zhixia that in this imperial capital, she can't turn the sky. Even if Chen Jixun is a waste, he is also a cousin of His Royal Highness, and it is not her turn to make a mistake. The third prince said casually, "If she can't control her hands, don't blame me for chopping her off." ”
Deng Mian couldn't say a word, his tightly bound hands and feet were numb because of the lack of blood. His gaze fell blankly on the bed where the veils were draped, and a white wrist covered with bruise marks poked out of the couch and remained motionless.
It's like he's dead.
Before a syllable rolled out of Deng Mian's throat, the door was slammed, and the force was so great that the dust on the beams shook off. The third prince was taken aback, kicked Deng Mian away in anger, and opened the door.
"Who is so presumptuous that they don't want to live anymore? - Brother! ”
The third prince was stunned in place, and his voice changed in shock.
Bai Huan stood at the door in a scholar's green robe, constantly turning the jade wrench on his thumb, his face sinking like water. It was Bai Huan's new gadget recently, it was the best kang head jade in the northwest, and he couldn't help but play with it when he was irritable.
"Your Royal Highness, so blessed." Bai Huan said coldly, "Whose hand are you going to chop off?" ”
The third prince's tongue was tied in eighteen knots, and he couldn't hold back a fart, and his eyes searched the crowd.
"Don't look at it, even if Miss Chu is here, can she still carry the black pot for you?" Bai Huan hooked an indifferent smile, "Prostitutes fornicate and force the children of the eunuchs to watch, is this what the children of the clan should do?" Bai Yu, Bai Yu, you are really promising. I think this is the position of the East Palace, so it is better to give it to you to sit. ”
The third prince knelt on the ground with a "plop", grabbed the corner of Bai Huan's robe and begged for mercy, "I was wrong, brother, don't be angry, I don't dare anymore!" ”
"Don't you dare, is there anything in this world that you don't dare to do?" Bai Huan laughed angrily, beckoning someone to drag Chen Jixun up.
Chen Jixun begged the third prince for help without saying a word, but the third prince didn't even dare to give him a look, and grabbed the corner of Bai Huan's clothes in fear.
"Chen Jixun tricked the prince into doing despicable things, broke his legs, and dragged people back to Chen's house." Bai Huan pinched his emerald wrench and said coldly, "You are not allowed to leave a leg." ”
"Brother Prince, I was wrong Brother Prince!" Chen Jixun shouted in his throat, and wept bitterly, "It's all the idea of the Third Highness, I'm just showing him the way!" ”
"Don't drag it out, do you want people to come around and see how my Bai clan teaches his son?" Bai Huan was furious, and the guards of the East Palace immediately blocked Chen Jixun's mouth, and despite his struggle, dragged the person into the box for execution.
The third prince fell to the ground in fear, not daring to speak.
"You, follow me back to the East Palace."
Bai Huan's cold eyes swept over the top of the third prince's head.
——
Deng Mian tried hard to break free of the rope on his wrist, but he couldn't move at all. He was kicked by the third prince and lay on the ground, squirming like a clumsy caterpillar, and his head was sweating with anxiety.
He couldn't tell why he was in a hurry to see if Jiang Qiao was still alive, and he was a little afraid that Chu Zhixia would blame him. If you put it in the past, Jiang Qiao was obviously the kind of person he couldn't look down on and couldn't see.
But that's a life. There was only one thought in Deng Mian's mind, which was so clear that his conscience was cut off, and he hated to curl up in a ball.
With a sudden loosening of his wrist, Deng Mian turned his head in a daze, looking at Chu Zhixia who walked in at some point. Chu Zhixia didn't look at him much, cut the rope on his feet, and walked towards Jiang Qiao on the bed.
Chu Zhixia lifted the veil and breathed sluggishly.
She knew that Jiang Qiao would definitely not end well if she fell into the hands of the third prince, but she didn't expect it to be so tragic.
The skin that could be seen on Jiang Qiao's body was covered with tooth marks, the blood stains had not dried up, there were blue and purple pinch marks everywhere, the neck was particularly deep, and there were several red slap marks overlapping the snow-white cheeks. Her pale lips were a trail of crimson blood, which she bit when she didn't want to make a sound.
Her chest was barely visibly heaving.
Chu Zhixia reached out and pressed it on her neck, touching a faint pulse.
"Is she still alive?" Deng Mian stood at the door, refusing to step forward, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Alive." Chu Zhixia glanced at the dirty embroidered quilt, took off his robe and wrapped the person, hugged him and walked out, "You go to find a doctor." ”
The old bustard came at the right time, and reversed his previous attitude of being submissive, and blocked the door with a dozen small servants.
"Miss Chu, people are our Fangmanting, you can't take them away." The old bustard unexpectedly stiffened, "She signed a deed of sale with us, even if she dies, she has to die with us." ”
Deng Mian was so anxious that he was about to slap the old bustard in the face, "Get out!" ”
"Deng Mian, stand back." Chu Zhixia said lightly, "You can't afford to provoke the boss behind this Fang Manting." Am I right, Mom? ”
Chu Zhixia actually laughed, but this smile was by no means a good sign of melting ice and snow and spring breeze, but it made people get goosebumps uncontrollably.
The old bustard was a little proud, but he didn't dare to show it, he didn't know how much Chu Zhixia had figured out Fang Manting. In the jade fang, the business can be bigger, more or less colluded with the officials of the DPRK and China, otherwise the warbler Yanyan in this courtyard would have been skinned and eaten.
"Do you really know who she is?" Chu Zhixia approached the old bustard and exhaled like an orchid, "I'm afraid the boss behind you only told you that it was better for her to live than to die, but he didn't tell you at all, who her surname was, right?" ”
The old bustard froze in place, looking at Chu Zhixia in disbelief.
"Do you have her deed of sale?"
Chu Zhixia said, "Unfortunately, I am familiar with Yulin Wei Zhonglang and Yan Xiaohou, so it is better to let him judge justice." If you can't get her deed of sale and force Liang to be a prostitute, how many heads do you have to cut off for me? ”
The old bustard has been crawling and rolling in the Fengyue Field for decades, and it is impossible for Chu Shixia to be easily bluffed.
Without waiting for the old bustard to open his mouth to argue, Chu Zhixia continued: "Do you know what the two characters who went out just now are?" That brother cherishes his brother's reputation, and he inevitably wants to accuse you of scheming and seducing the prince. It's useless for this girl to stay here, and she will only bring disaster to you. I like her flute very much, I don't mind leaving her alive, if you push it back, I guarantee that you won't be able to open the door tomorrow. ”
The old bustard has no other skills, but he is first-class and accurate, and the winding relationship in the big families in the imperial capital has an account in his heart. There was a lot of trouble just now, that brother was menacing but unwilling to show off, coupled with Chen Jixun's relationship, it was not difficult to guess who they were.
The old bustard was coaxed and frightened by Chu Zhixia, and he was already a little timid.
Chu Zhixia ran straight into her and left with Jiang Qiao in his arms.
Deng Mian followed.
——
Akiba Mountain House.
Chu Zhixia settled Jiang Qiao well, and when he went out, he saw Deng Mian sitting under the porch, staring blankly at the empty courtyard. Chu Zhixia walked over and patted him, he stiffly rolled his eyes and looked at Chu Zhixia twice, and cried loudly.
This howl was earth-shattering, and Yuzhu who was passing by was so frightened that she almost dropped the plate.
"Okay, don't cry," Chu Zhixia covered his ears and said in disgust, "I don't know, I think the third prince is sleeping with you." ”
Deng Mian cried a handful of snot and tears, and said with a sob: "She has no deed of sale, she plays the flute and piano well...... She's the daughter of a good family, isn't she? How did she end up in Fang Manting, she was humiliated by the three princes so much, how can she live in the future? ”
"Shut up." Chu Zhixia slapped him on the head irritably, "Why can't you live?" ”
Deng Mian looked at her with two tears in his eyes.
"Don't say this kind of thing again, otherwise it won't be the third prince who killed her, but you." Chu Zhixia said, "What is chastity, is it a guillotine on the neck?" A woman without chastity is an inferior person, thousands of people sleep on thousands of pillows, and they can't hold their heads up for the rest of their lives, so they have no other choice but to die? ”
Chu Zhixia scolded sonorously: "It's all fart." ”
Deng Mian was frightened by her, and said hesitantly: "But throughout the ages, it has been like this...... If something like this happens, who else can she marry in the future? ”
Chu Zhixia wordlessly pressed Deng Mian's shoulder and said, "Don't think about a woman's fate so narrowly. The best ending for a woman is never to get married. Whether she can marry or not, and what kind of person she marries, is not the standard for judging whether she is a good woman. ”
Deng Mian was about to cry again, "I didn't protect her well, I originally wanted to report to you, but the third prince ...... him."
Chu Zhixia was so cried by Deng Mian that his brain hurt, so he grabbed the hibiscus cake brought by Yuzhu and gagged his mouth.
"Where did you get so many tears," Chu Zhixia was helpless, "Do you have a good relationship with her?" ”
Deng Mian shook his head, unable to say why.
Chu Zhixia flicked on the door of his head.
"Don't worry, she'll be alive, and she'll live well."
——
East Palace.
Bai Huan was furious, ordered the three princes to be pressed in the courtyard and scolded fifteen with a cane, and ordered to "fight hard". There are a lot of cane punishments, but since it was the elder brother who punished the younger brother and gave such a ruthless order, the guards of the East Palace did not dare to spare their strength, and firmly opened the buttocks of the third prince.
The third prince was both painful and angry.
He has never been punished so severely since he was born, Bai Huan has responded to his requests and cared for him carefully, but now he beats him for a lowly woman.
The third prince was beaten to the point that he cried wolf and couldn't get off the ground, but he still didn't repent.
Bai Huan was so angry that he smashed the two sides of Huimo, and said, "I don't know what is wrong, so I will fight until he knows!" ”
The deputy general only said that he was stunned by anger, and persuaded: "His Royal Highness the Prince, if you fight like this again, you will die." The Third Highness is young, so the minister might as well forget about it. ”
"If this palace settles with him today, tomorrow the Yanguan will settle with this palace, with the queen, and with the Chen family?" Bai Huan's eyes were cold and sharp, like a knife, slashing across the face of the deputy general, "If it is not the palace that comes to Fang Manting today, if Chen Jixun is not broken by the palace, do you guess that there will be a few letters on the desk of the emperor tomorrow to impeach him?" ”
Bai Huan slapped the table, obviously angry.
"The prince has taught Mama Xi and the palace maid to teach the art of the room since he was sensible, how could I not know that he is not greedy for beauty, just to fight with Chu Zhixia? Even though he shouldn't have done a thousand things, he only did one thing stupidly. That's a dusty woman! If you leave the bloodline, will you keep it or not? If someone slept with that woman, what an insult to the royal family? ”
"Since the founding of the country, there has been no precedent for the clan to be mixed with the wind and dust women." Bai Huan is ruthless this time, and he must give the third prince a lesson that will never be forgotten, "If he doesn't admit his mistake, he will beat him until he admits it, and tomorrow I will personally carry him into the palace to apologize to my father!" ”
