Chapter 64: Changle

The idlers who watched the excitement soon gathered, but they were all just pointing and talking, and no one stopped them.

Mei Xue sighed and turned over and dismounted, the county lord of Changle had already run in front of her with a horsewhip.

The girl lying on the ground was drenched, and her face with stray hair had been beaten high and swollen.

Some onlookers are discussing:

"Let's just say that women shouldn't show their heads, now it's okay, offend the nobles, don't talk about silver, I'm afraid I won't even be able to save my life."

"Don't say that, it's not because the family is poor that girls will be allowed to serve on such occasions."

Mei Xue listened to a few words and understood that this girl should be working in this silver building, specializing in serving the female relatives who came to buy jewelry.

The county lord of Changle raised his horsewhip in his hand, pointed at the evil servants one by one, and asked coldly:

"Say, where are you from?"

Seeing that although the county lord of Changle was dressed luxuriously, her speech and demeanor did not resemble that of a lady in the boudoir, these mothers-in-law thought that she was just the daughter of a wealthy merchant.

Therefore, he did not pay attention to it, and the mother-in-law carrying the bucket replied proudly:

"We are from the Dali Temple, which is a huge person's house, and we are serving the huge girl closely."

The county lord of Changle was stunned for a moment, turned his face and asked Mei Xue:

"Do you know how many officials are in Dali Temple? What's the matter? ”

Mei Xue was almost amused, but she knew that the county lord of Changle really didn't know, so she replied:

"Dali Temple is the sixth product, which specializes in reviewing criminal names."

The mother-in-law thought that the county lord of Changle was ignorant, and her expression became more and more arrogant, and the brocade-clothed woman led by her glanced at the county lord of Changle and said:

"What else does the girl want to ask? Aren't you ready to meddle in the affairs of our Pang Mansion? ”

Mei Xue glanced at the county lord of Changle, who was smiling more and more coldly, and knew that these mothers-in-law had to be unlucky.

Sure enough, the county lord of Changle laughed, and did not speak, but raised his hand and whipped it towards the face of the brocade-clothed woman, and then sneered and said:

"Dog minion, this palace has to take care of your affairs today."

After all, she is an official slave, and no matter how arrogant she is, she can understand what the word "Bengong" means.

The mothers-in-law froze for a moment.

But the whip in the hand of the county lord of Changle did not stop, and the five or six mothers-in-law were all beaten, blood was seen on their hands and faces, and their cotton clothes were torn.

Several mothers-in-law didn't dare to resist, so they only ran to the building behind them crying and crawling.

Mei Xue bent down and untied her cloak to wrap the shivering girl.

It was only a matter of moments, and a girl in a goose yellow cloak led two maids out.

The girl looked sixteen or seventeen years old, with snow-white skin, plump body, and a pair of big Danfeng eyes on her goose egg face full of smiles.

She hurriedly walked to the county lord of Changle and saluted, and said apologetically:

"Courtiers Pang Yu, the people in the family collided with the county lord, and the courtiers are very sorry."

As he spoke, the person had already saluted the county lord of Changle again.

Mei Xue didn't even look at Pang Yu, she took out a piece of broken silver from her sleeve and handed it to a woman behind her who was watching the excitement, and asked her to call for someone to send the beaten girl to the nearest ready-to-wear shop:

"Hurry up and change her into dry clothes, and give her a bowl of hot ginger soup to drink."

Pang Yu's eyes swept over Mei Xue's body, and a trace of imperceptible ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

The county lord of Changle calmly accepted Pang Yu's salute, shook off the horsewhip in his hand and asked with a sneer:

"It turns out that you are the eldest girl of the six-grade official family, let me ask you, why did people beat her like this?"

As he spoke, the county lord of Changle pointed at the girl who was being carried away with the horsewhip in his hand.

The county lord of Changle was so unceremonious, which made Pang Yu's face flush suddenly, but he still barely maintained a smile and said:

"She didn't pay attention when she poured the tea, the tea was hot, and I just blamed me twice, who knew that people were so ignorant ......."

Pang Yu wanted to explain further, but the county lord of Changle had already laughed, looked at her with disdain, and said:

"If the heat of the tea is not suitable, Miss Pang will be so aggrieved that she wants to take people's lives to dissipate her anger, this palace is really an eye-opener today.

It's my mother, no matter how big a mistake the people in the Suri Palace have made, they haven't beaten them like this.

Miss Pang, if you want to perfunctory this palace, you have to use your brains, right? ”

The people around were talking, and a few bold ones rushed to accuse Pang Yu.

In this Marigold Street, I stepped on ten masters, and I am afraid that eight of them are the daughters of officials from all walks of life.

What's more, a girl from a mere six-grade official family.

Pang Yu was already crying in embarrassment, looked at Mei Xue for help, and said:

"May I ask if you are Imperial Doctor Mei? I really didn't mean it today, it was because I didn't explain it clearly, so something like this happened, and I asked Dr. Mei to say something for me. ”

Mei Xue glanced at Pang Yu lightly, and didn't pay attention to her, only nodded, then turned her face and said to the county lord of Changle:

"County Lord, it's not too early, Weichen is still in a hurry to go back and have something to do, let's go first!"

The county lord of Changle snorted at this time, turned around and beckoned the guards who escorted her to come forward, and told them to slap each of the mothers-in-law fifty, not a little less.

Before leaving, he sneered and said to Pang Yu:

"That girl will definitely be sick, and she needs silver to see a doctor, so take down your gold hairpin, earrings, and bracelets from this palace."

An official girl who removes her makeup on the street is really humiliating.

But facing the cold eyes of the county lord of Changle, Pang Yu had no choice but to do it with tears.

When Mei Xue and the county lord of Changle got on their horses and left, Pang Yu dared to cover his face with a handkerchief and run back crying.

Behind the gauze curtain on the second floor of the Golden Building, a beautiful girl with pink face and red lips smiled coldly and asked the maid beside her:

"Is the person in the cyan clothes the imperial doctor named Mei Xue?"

The maid nodded hurriedly and said softly:

"Yes, county lord, that person is Mei Xue, the Qiao family, the Yan family, and the Tie family are all folded in her hands."

The county lord of Jialan smiled meaningfully, and when Pang Yu ran upstairs crying, she looked at Pang Yu with a smile and said:

"Actually, that Mei Xue and Qiao Anran still look similar."

Pang Yu was aggrieved, so he said with tears and hatred:

"A lowly medical woman, once she got married to a nobleman, she thought she was something."

The lord of Jialan still smiled and said:

"She does not look as likable as Joe Anran."

The lord of Jialan is the most beloved daughter of King Lu, two years ago, the prince of King Lu entered Beijing to serve the Empress Dowager Jing'an, she also followed, and soon gathered a group of noble girls from various mansions around her.

The Qiao family was destroyed, and the county lord of Jialan didn't feel anything, but Qiao Anran was always her guest, so she didn't like Mei Xue from the beginning.

When I saw Mei Xue herself today, she didn't like it even more.

Especially Mei Xue's indifferent face when she treated Pang Yu.

She's never seen such a tall girl, it's very interesting!

Mei Xue and the county lord of Changle found a ready-to-wear shop on another street, but found that the girl who had just changed into clean clothes was being beaten and scolded again.

The woman who took Mei Xue's silver hurriedly stepped forward to explain, saying that the fat woman who beat her was the girl's sister-in-law, and she hated her for offending the nobleman and losing the silver building, and she had been fighting for a while.

The county lord of Changle was laughed at angrily, and whipped the fat woman's face full of flowers, and refused to say even a superfluous word to the fat woman, and directly ordered the guards to send the girl to the palace:

"In the future, her errand will be to serve the palace, and the palace will see who dares not to treat her as a person."

As he spoke, the county lord of Changle smashed Pang Yu's jewelry on the fat woman who was crying.

Mei Xue stood aside and was silent.

On the rest of the road, the county lord of Changle kept his face gloomy, and when he arrived at the gate of the palace, he suddenly said:

"I'm so angry, I'm going to talk to Shen Qingyang about it, otherwise I'll be so angry that I can't eat at noon today."

After speaking, he didn't say goodbye to Mei Xue, and galloped away with his horse.

Mei Xue was stunned, she couldn't imagine that the county lord of Changle was now familiar with Shen Qingyang to such an extent.

But when she thought about it again, she couldn't help but smile slightly.

Jiu'er was the most lively, and leaned into Mei Xue's ear and whispered with a smile:

"Girl, you go back first, the slave and maid will follow to see the excitement, and I'll talk to you again when I come back."

After speaking, Jiu'er rode Mei Xue's horse and chased after the county lord of Changle.

Mei Xue shook her head and entered the side door of the palace with a smile.

Jiu'er didn't come back until after lunch, Li Jinzhi was helping Mei Xue treat Li Mingze, Jiu'er was anxious to talk but didn't dare to disturb, and finally waited until Mei Xue stopped, she hurriedly said:

"Girl, the slave has seen a big drama today.

The county lord went to Lord Shen's house, and when he saw that Lord Shen was not at home, he chased after Yu Linwei, who knew that Lord Shen was not in Yu Linwei's yamen.

The soldiers there seemed to be very afraid of the county lord, and the county lord had just asked a few words before they recruited, saying that Lord Shen had gone to the Jade Tower to drink. ”

Seeing that Jiu'er's face was flushed with excitement, Mei Xue poured a glass of water and handed it to her and said:

"Drink saliva and then say, see if you're in a hurry."

Jiu'er laughed, drank the water in a hurry, and said:

"The slave and maid followed the county lord to the jade building, and Lord Shen was really there, but he happened to sit at the window facing the street, and when he saw the county lord, he was so frightened that he ran downstairs from the back window."

Speaking of this, Jiu'er couldn't help laughing anymore and said:

"Girl, the slave maid really can't imagine that Lord Shen is such a vicious person as afraid of the county lord."

Mei Xue couldn't help laughing, nodded Jiu'er's forehead and told her to hurry up and eat.

Li Jinzhi was slowly pacing in the room with Li Mingze in his arms, and he couldn't help but smile on his face.
