Shi Can went to see Yu Ximeng, and the old lady was sent back to the house to rest by Shuangzhi arranged. In the huge flower hall, there are only Shuangzhi and a few Yahuan left, as well as Su Yinxue, who is isolated in the center and looks at Shuangzhi coldly.
Su Yinxue was not afraid, Fu Shuangzhi had no evidence to indicate that she was the one who made Yu Ximeng have a miscarriage, and the broken thread of the pearl was purely an accident in everyone's eyes. Although she really wants to kill two birds with one stone, and becoming Shi Can's concubine is her last resort, but she must fight for herself, there is no regret to dream, no blessing and double ...... She'll be fine.
Linglan presented the broken pearl to Shuangzhi, Shuangzhi looked at the broken thread carefully, a large part of the broken thread was flat, only the line seemed to be torn off.
Su Yinxue's eyes were slightly cold, it turned out that she was picked up by this little hoof.
Shuangzhi looked at Su Yinxue with a smile and said softly, "This matter has to wait for the second lady to wake up and ask where the pearl came from to deal with it. β
Su Yinxue said angrily, "What did the concubine do wrong?" β
"You're suspicious." Shuangzhi said lightly.
"The concubine didn't do anything!" Su Yin Snow Road.
Shuangzhi smiled, "Who knows, at that time, you were the closest to the second lady, even if it wasn't for you, I would have to put you as a protector, at that time, you clearly supported the second lady, why did you let go so coincidentally at that time?" β
"The concubine was just scared, and she almost fell." Su Yinxue calmly defended.
"So what? A slave is a slave, and it's your fault for not protecting your master! Shuangzhi glanced at her coldly, she had already planned to let Su Yinxue go, but she didn't expect her to dare to go to the General's Mansion to play a demon moth, so it's no wonder she was ruthless.
"You take revenge!" Su Yinxue shouted angrily, she hated being pressed by others as an identity the most.
"You are wrong, I will avenge my public and personal grudges." Shuangzhi hooked his lips and smiled, and a cold light oozed from the bottom of his eyes.
"Madam, the official master is here, and Steward Wang has asked them to take them to the firewood room, and they are about to take Aunt Jing back." At this time, the red cotton walked in and said to Shuangzhi.
Shuangzhi smiled, took Xiangqin's hand and got up, "Escort Su Yinxue to the firewood room." β
A mother-in-law twisted Su Yinxue and followed Shuangzhi to the firewood room.
Su Yinxue struggled, "Let go of me, I'll go by myself!" β
Shuangzhi said in front of him, "Then let her go!" β
Outside the firewood room, two poor masters in official uniforms twisted Aunt Jing who was screaming and scolding, they heard Shuangzhi coming, and the two poor masters hurriedly saluted, "Mrs. County!" β
"Trouble the two officials to come over this time." Shuangzhi Yingying smiled, indifferent to Aunt Jing's scolding.
"Don't dare to be, Mrs. Jun, this old woman's disrespectful remarks have damaged the face of the heavenly family, we have to take it back and listen to it." One of them was a poor man.
When Aunt Jing heard that she was really going to take her to the official mansion, she turned her voice away for a while and glared at the official who was talking in horror.
"Two officials, this is our old lady's concubine, I can't make the decision, but the royal majesty is inviolable, so I have to trouble you two." Double Solstice Road.
The cha master said, "The county lady is serious. β
"Uncle, you see, if this aunt enters the official mansion, what crime will she suffer?" Shuangzhi didn't even look at Aunt Jing, and asked in a loud voice.
The two officials were both people with eyes, and when they heard Shuangzhi ask, they glanced at each other and replied, "The light is eighty palms and mouths, and the territory is matched, and the heavy is the death penalty." β
Aunt Jing's face was shocked, and she screamed, "I don't want to go to the government, I won't go to ......"
An official shouted, "Presumptuous, is this up to you?" β
Aunt Jing looked at Shuangzhi, "You can't do this to me!" β
"Why? Could it be that Aunt Jing also wants me to ignore the law? Shuangzhi asked coldly.
Aunt Jing was stunned, and glanced around, no one would help her, she didn't want to be slapped, she didn't want to be worthy of the territory, and she didn't want to die.
"I'm the second master's mother!" She blushed and screamed hysterically.
Shuangzhifeng smiled lightly, "You're just an aunt!" β
Aunt Jing's eyes widened, and she was speechless for a moment.
All the people ignored her, and no one pleaded for her.
The poor master said to her, "Mrs. County, can you insult at will?" The county lady was personally enthroned by the emperor, and if you are presumptuous to the county lady, you are presumptuous to the emperor, do you know what kind of crime this is? β
Aunt Jing was cowardly, unable to speak, just looked at Shuangzhi in a daze.
"That's a big crime to exterminate the family!" The official cha shouted loudly.
On the side, Su Yinxue's face was also extremely ugly.
Aunt Jing shook her head, "I don't believe ......"
"Hey, it doesn't matter if you don't believe it, you'll know what it's like when you enter the women's prison, the female prisoners there are more disgusting than the big men." Cha Ye sneered. After that, I have come over to pull up Aunt Jing.
Aunt Jing struggled, "I won't go, I won't go......" She looked at Shuangzhi, her face was unprecedentedly frightened, suddenly, she pushed away the official and knelt in front of Shuangzhi with a bang, "Madam, the slave is wrong, you spare me, the slave is too old to withstand the toss in prison, please, spare me." β
Xiangqin and Rong Lan looked at each other, and some onlookers next to them looked at the scene in front of them in amazement.
Shuangzhi lowered his eyes, stared at her coldly, unmoved.
"The slave will never set foot in the general's mansion in the future, and I will never dare to be presumptuous to you again, madam, please spare me and go to that place...... Slave maid, slave maid will not be able to come back alive, even if you don't look at the monk's face, you ...... For the sake of the old lady, you have a lot of them, so spare me this time. Aunt Jing continued to kowtow and pray.
Shuangzhi's gaze fell on Su Yinxue's face, who was also stunned, and sneered, "Aunt Jing, why don't I spare you once?" β
She's not interested in being an adult, she's a villain! Shuangzhi thought to himself.
"The slave and maid make you cows and horses, you can spare me." Aunt Jing's makeup has been ruined, and all tears and snot have come out.
Shuangzhi sighed, "What is the use of me asking you to be a cow and a horse, even if I am willing to let you go now, it depends on how the poor man handles it, right?" β
"Mrs. Jun, this matter is not private, this is a matter of the face of the heavenly family." The official hurriedly said beside him, with a smile in his eyes.
"Two poor masters, this Aunt Jing has always been the concubine of the old lady, can it be convenient?" Shuangzhi silently glanced at Aunt Jing and asked the official.
The two officials were stunned, and when they saw Shuangzhi Yingying's eyes with a shallow smile, they came back to their senses, daring to love that this county lady didn't want to take this old woman to prison at all, but just wanted to teach her a lesson through the hands of their government?
"Mrs. County, it's not good for us not to give face when you open your mouth, but you can not go to prison, but this punishment is inevitable." The official said.
"How should I punish it?" Shuangzhi asked.
"Eighty palms, we can also have an explanation with adults."
"Thank you for giving me face." Shuangzhi smiled and said gratefully. In fact, she really just wants to teach Aunt Jing a lesson, no matter what, she is always the old lady's person, and sending it to the government is really a life of death, and now let the official slap her mouth, I believe she will not dare to be presumptuous in the future.
Aunt Jing heard that she was going to slap her mouth eighty, her eyes were dark, and she almost fainted, and her eighty slaps did not escape after all, and it was executed by two officials, so she was naturally merciless.
The crisp voice made everyone tremble when they heard it. Aunt Jing didn't even moan, her face was horribly red and swollen, her lips were cracked, and her mouth was full of red blood.
Shuangzhi didn't look at it, and coldly looked elsewhere.
Before the halfway point of the punishment, Aunt Jing had already fainted to death.
The official who slapped his mouth stopped moving, "That's it for today, there are fifty palms left, and we'll come back tomorrow." β
The two mothers-in-law had already lifted Aunt Jing and put her back in the firewood room.
Shuangzhi gave Xiangqin a look, Xiangqin nodded, stepped forward to stuff the money bags for the two officials, and then whispered a few words beside them, and the two officials raised their eyes and glanced at Su Yinxue and nodded.
Su Yinxue was shocked, and she didn't know what Fu Shuangzhi was going to do.
"Two adults, may I ask what should be done about the crime of designing to frame your own master and causing her to lose the child in her womb?" Shuangzhi was now sitting comfortably on the Taishi chair moved by Yahuan, and asked lightly.
"Such evil slaves should be executed by death!" The officials said in unison.
"My lord, there happens to be such a vicious servant in my house, but I can't ask the result, you two look ......at it" Shuangzhi's lips raised slightly, and looked at Su Yinxue's face turned pale in an instant.
"Don't worry, Mrs. County, hand over this evil slave to us, we will definitely ask for the result in less than two hours." The official said.
"Then I have you to lose." Shuangzhi smiled and said to the mother-in-law who was taking care of Su Yinxue, "Give Su Yinxue to the two officials and let them deal with it." β
"Yes, ma'am!"
Su Yinxue's eyes widened and she glared at Shuangzhi, "You want to take me to prison?" β
"Exactly!" Shuangzhi said with a smile, and then said to the two officials, "Two adults, I'm not in a hurry to get results, if this slave is hard-mouthed, I will be locked in prison for two or three days to let her reflect and reflect." β
"Mrs. County, we know what to do." The official said.
Su Yinxue pursed her lips, and secretly swore in her heart that she would never open her mouth to beg for mercy from Fu Shuangzhi.
Shuangzhi smiled at her, "Two adults, then I won't send it." β
"The Lady of the County sits in peace." The two officials escorted Su Yinxue away.
"Madam, why did you spare Su Yinxue so easily?" That Aunt Jing was beaten like that, why was Su Yinxue fine.
Shuangzhi sneered, "Do you think the women's prison is a relaxing place? β
Xiangqin and Rong Lan looked at her puzzled.
Mrs. Zheng explained on the side, "Most of the prisoners in the women's prison are crazy women, and Su Yinxue will inevitably suffer if she enters." β
Shuangzhi smiled, I heard that the prisoners in the women's prison are all perverted, Su Yinxue went in, I don't know what will happen, after grinding off the edges and corners of this woman, she will come to interrogate her properly!
"Okay, let's go back, you can put some medicine on Aunt Jing and watch her well." Shuangzhi said to the mother-in-law who guarded the door.
"Yes, ma'am."
"Madam, the second lady has woken up." A little girl came back and forth.
"The second master is still here, let the two of them talk, let's go over tomorrow!" Shuangzhi nodded and walked back to the upper room.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty-Seven: Deep Winter
The sky is very blue, and the white clouds are silky.
The entire Jingzhao City was snow-white, the ice cubes on the branches of the trees shimmered dazzlingly in the sunlight, and the air was clear and cold.
Shuangzhi was dressed like a meat ball, holding the hand stove and huddled in the house, without admiring the beautiful scenery outside, but she didn't expect that it was already deep winter in a blink of an eye, no one knows, she was uneasy, Shi Tuo has lost the news for almost two months, what is the situation in Pingzhou City, no one knows, she is uneasy, but she doesn't know how to be good, there seems to be no movement in the court, but I heard that the queen was beaten into the cold palace, and then sent to other palaces, as if after the child is born, it will be abolished, Qin Ziyin is now in the harem almost with one hand to cover the sky.
When he first heard the news, Shuangzhi felt incredible, no matter how much the emperor favored Qin Ziyin, he shouldn't treat the queen like this, but then he thought, how can ordinary people like her see through the affairs of the harem?
Not to mention the situation that has nothing to do with her, the second room has not come to the general's mansion for a long time, Aunt Jing began to worship the Buddha, it seems that she no longer cares about the world, Shi Xianshu's child was born prematurely, gave birth to a daughter, named Shi Yuxiang, Yu Ximeng Since the loss of the child, her temperament has changed greatly, and she is no longer as afraid of things as before, and Shi Xianshu is in charge of the family's big and small things, but now she has full power in the hands of Yu Ximeng, which is quite impressive.
There is one thing that bothers her so far, that is, what kind of business are Fu Minxun and Shi Chan doing? They all have a relationship with Guo Jing, but she can't find out what the Guo family is doing, it seems to be quite legitimate on the surface, but why are Shi Can and Fu Minxun so mysterious? I heard that Fu Minxun bought another mansion, and he is about to become a tyrant.
"Madam, the second master is Zhao Gongzi here." Parsley gave the double to the back of the gift.
Shuangzhimei slightly exaggerated a faint smile, "It's finally here." β
She took Parsley's hand and stood up, the day of childbirth was getting closer and closer, and it was very inconvenient to walk.
I really hope that when I have a child, Shi Tuo will be by my side.
In the flower hall, Shi Can and Zhao Shaofei's faces were heavy, and their eyes were full of anxiety.
Shuangzhi glanced at them, "Why haven't you brought tea up yet, and you have neglected the guests." β
"Sister-in-law, you're welcome, we'...... We're just here to ask you something. Shi Can hurriedly stood up and looked at Shuangzhi with a hesitant expression.
Shuangzhi's voice was slightly raised, "What's the matter?" β
"That's right, originally we transported timber out of the city, and the guards of the city wall didn't have to check it and let us go, but these times we have to check our timber, sister-in-law, you don't know, as soon as this timber gets on the car, it can't be disassembled, I told the guard chief about it, he said that the Shi family is the business of the general's mansion, and they will naturally not check it if they give face to the eldest brother, but ...... But now that the government has been divided, you have to be careful, sister-in-law, listen, what are you talking about, even if the government is divided, we are still the business of the Shi family, how can it be different. Shi Can shouted, he didn't understand, why did he suddenly have to check the goods, those guards were really snobbish, if they had the waist card of the General's Mansion, see if they dare to be arrogant.
"So that's what happened." Shuangzhi nodded, "This official is like this, looking at the relationship affairs, you don't have to be nervous, second master, it is better to let the wood be inspected by the guard a few times, next time he will not inspect it, our business here is going to go out of the city gate, and it will also be checked." β
"No, sister-in-law, you can't let them check ......" Shi Can suddenly shouted, if he could let him check, he wouldn't have to look for her.
Zhao Shaofei coughed lightly and said, "This wood is not easy to load and unload, and it is troublesome to check." β
Shi Can glanced at Zhao Shaofei and nodded hurriedly, a bit like he wanted to hide his panic just now, "Yes, yes, yes, trouble." β
Shuangzhi smiled, "How can there be no trouble in doing business to make money, we just have goods to go out of the city, and we also have to be inspected by the guards." β
"Hey, sister-in-law, we ...... We're different here. Shi Can grabbed his head and said.
"What's the difference?" Shuangzhi asked casually, but there was vigilance in his heart.
"This ......" Shi Can glanced at Zhao Shaofei, if he could say it, he would have said it a long time ago.
Zhao Shaofei gave Shuangzhi his hand, "Sister-in-law, can't you be accommodating?" β
"Zhao Gongzi, you really like to laugh, what's the use of my accommodation, you have to be accommodating on the guard chief's side, or you go to him and talk to him?" Shuangzhi said with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, it's useless for us to say, he is also a subordinate of the eldest brother, it is better for you to go to the main leap sentence than a hundred sentences for us." Shi Chan said.
"Zhao Gongzi, what do you think I can do like this?" Shuangzhi stared at Zhao Shaofei coldly and asked coldly.
Zhao Shaofei's eyes touched her abdomen, and he froze for a moment, "Sister-in-law, can you make me send a letter, this will be done." β
"I can't! There is no such thing, let outsiders know that our general's mansion abuses power and cheats for personal gain, which is not good for the general's reputation, second master, Zhao Gongzi, is it possible that there is something unsightly in your wood, why can't you check it? Shuangzhi asked earnestly.
Zhao Shaofei glanced at Shuangzhi with a somewhat gloomy look, this woman is really not easy to deal with! He really suspected that the reason why the guards at the city gate suddenly took business with them was this woman's fault!
In the Shi family, he only dared not be careless about this Fu Shuangzhi, she was like a tigress staring at him in the dark, just waiting for him to reveal his flaws, she would jump out at any time and bite him to death.
"Sister-in-law, can't you help?" Shi Can pleaded.
Shuangzhi shook his head firmly, "Uncle is not at home, how can I come out, second master, please don't embarrass me." β
Shi Can scratched his head in annoyance, but Zhao Shaofei had already arched his hand and said, "Since this is the case, it is inconvenient for us to disturb my sister-in-law's rest." β
"Then I won't stay, please."
Shi Can and Zhao Shaofei left the General's Mansion, and the two of them walked silently for a while, and in the quieter section, Shi Can finally couldn't help but shout, "How is it good now?" If you want to check, something will happen! β
Zhao Shaofei's face was calm, "I know, I can't delay it anymore, I'm urging it over there." β
"It's useless to urge death, if you are awakened, then the Shi family will be finished." Shi Can shouted.
"What are you afraid of, isn't there still a general's mansion? Something happened to you in the second room, can your eldest brother ignore it? Zhao Shaofei glanced at him impatiently, he made a fuss about a little thing, he was really not a person who did big things, if it wasn't for the fact that he hadn't earned enough money, he wouldn't have bothered him to talk nonsense here.
"It's divided! You still expect the eldest brother to help us, do you see the sister-in-law's face just now, as if she will help us? Zhao Shaofei, if something happens to the second room, you and Xian Shu won't be able to escape! Shi Can said angrily.
Zhao Shaofei sneered in his heart, something is really going to happen, can he still take care of that Shi Xianshu?
"That sister-in-law's brother, you always know it, doesn't he do this too? He didn't rely on the name of the General's Mansion, how could he get out of the city? Zhao Shaofei sneered.
Shi Can was stunned, "He's also selling ......"
Zhao Shaofei glared at him, Shi Can hurriedly closed his mouth, and said in a low voice, "How do you know?" β
"Who gave you 200,000 silver in the first place?" Zhao Shaofei asked.
"Guo Jing!" Shi Can said, at that time, he went to borrow silver from his sister-in-law, but his sister-in-law refused to borrow it, and when he left the general's mansion, he saw that Guo Jing, who said that he was willing to lend him silver.
"Who is Guo Jing? Will I lend you 200,000 silver so cheap? If I'm not mistaken, all of our goods came out of him. Zhao Shaofei's narrow eyes burst out with a strange light, if they can cooperate with the Guo family, then their business will definitely be much better than now, and when the time comes, he will no longer have to wronged himself to stay in the Shi family, he can make a career alone, these days, he has also made a lot of money, there is no need to care about Shi Can, a fool.
Without feeling Zhao Shaofei's thoughts, Shi Can clapped his hands excitedly, "That's right, let's find Guo Jing, maybe he has a way!" β
Zhao Shaofei sneered at him, "How do you want to find it?" As soon as we met, I asked him what he was doing with the beheading? β
Shi Can was slightly stunned, "That...... So how? β
"Hmph, start with Fu Minxun!" Zhao Shaofei said coldly, didn't Fu Shuangzhi want to get rid of them and leave it alone? Let's see if she can also cut ties with her brother when the time comes!
At that time, Fu Minxun also came to the General's Mansion after Zhao Shaofei and the others left.
"Second brother, what are you ......" Shuangzhi looked coldly at the pile of gifts that looked like a small mountain, and looked at Fu Minxun incomprehensibly.
"This is for you, the second brother is not the same as in the past now, no matter what you say, you have to give my little nephew a meeting gift." Fu Minxun was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe, and a good fox fur was thrown on the chair at will, and some of the wealth was arrogant to Shuangzhi.
Shuangzhi's eyes sank slightly, "Second brother, is this gift sent faster?" β
Fu Minxun's rich face smiled like a bright flower, "It's not happy, it's good if you're happy." β
Shuangzhi had a calm face, "Second brother, what are you doing in Jingzhao?" Why is there so much silver? I heard that you and Guo Jing are close, and the Guo family is not a good person, you ......"
"Shuangzhi, I'm not here to listen to your lessons, I'm here to see you, I want to talk to you about family life, and it's my business who I associate with." Fu Minxun's face is not very good-looking, originally, he is such a sister in Jingzhao, and he is about to give birth, it is his intention to come to visit, but he is not here to listen to the lesson.
"Second brother, I naturally won't say much about who I'm going to associate with, but some people will affect you, I'm afraid of ......" Shuangzhi frowned, trying to persuade Fu Minxun to say a few words.
Fu Minxun raised his hand and shouted angrily, "Okay, you and your father both look down on me, thinking that I can't get ahead, why can't my eldest brother do business?" Am I losing to Big Brother now? I don't have the name of the eldest brother to inherit the family property, and I don't have the good luck of the third brother to meet a princess, I have everything by my own hands, if you are not rare, I will not come in the future. β
Shuangzhi frowned, "Second brother, I didn't mean that, and my father didn't look down on you, if you go back to Pujing City now, my father will be very happy, why don't you go back and help the eldest brother." β
"Why should I be the shadow of Big Brother? What's wrong with me now? "Fu Minxun felt that he had no status in the Fu family at all, and it was just a joke to go back.
"Second Brother ......"
"I won't go back without the Lord." Fu Minxun interrupted Shuangzhi's words, not wanting to listen to it again.
"Second brother......" Shuangzhi sighed, she really didn't want Fu Minxun to stay in Jingzhao, sooner or later something would happen.
Fu Minxun stood up, didn't want to say more, didn't want to leave, and couldn't stay either.
Silently watching the fine snow drifting outside the house, Shuangzhi said to Mrs. Zheng, "Look for an opportunity to see the mystery in the second master's wood." β
Mrs. Zheng nodded, "The old slave will do it with someone you can trust." β
Chapter 168: Illicit Salt
In the past few days, the weather has been very cold, the whole sky is black and oppressive, and the snow has been falling non-stop, so that Shuangzhi almost feels that this Jingyu will one day be covered by dazzling white snowflakes.
She hadn't stepped outside for several days, Jingzhao had been a little chaotic these days, I heard that there were rebels appearing, martial law was everywhere, and I heard that Hou Zhi fainted with blood when she vomited blood yesterday morning, and the whole city seemed to be plunged into a dark fog.
"Madam, the second lady is here." Parsley came over and said in Shuangzhi's ear, Shuangzhi opened his eyes slightly, and got down from the soft couch.
"Please let her in." Double to light channel.
Xiangqin opened the crimson felt curtain and invited Yu Ximeng in, and several maids withdrew, leaving only Mrs. Zheng alone.
Yu Ximeng relieved the snowflake-dyed dahu and handed it to Yahuan, so that the two Yahuan who came with her also retreated.
"Sister-in-law, you are in such a hurry to find me, but what's the matter?" Yu Xi dreamed of the ceremony, so she sat down opposite Shuangzhi, and Mrs. Zheng brought her a smoking tea.
Shuangzhi looked at her deeply and said in a low voice, "There are some urgent matters to discuss with you, but before that, I want to ask you a few questions." β
Yu Ximeng raised her eyebrows, now she is no longer the ignorant and fearful Yu Ximeng before, seeing Shuangzhi's solemn expression, she also guessed that something might have happened, and her heart lifted, "Sister-in-law, please speak?" β
"How do you treat the second master?" Shuangzhi asked seriously.
Yu Ximeng's face turned red, "Why does my sister-in-law ask like this?" β
"Between Zhao Shaofei and the second master, who is more important in your heart?" Shuangzhi didn't care about whether this question was too abrupt and rude, and now what she had to do was 100,000 urgent, so she couldn't take too much care of it.
Yu Ximeng's eyes sank, and she looked at Shuangzhi vigilantly, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by being like this?" β
Shuangzhi said, "I didn't mean anything, I just wanted to confirm that before you married the second master, didn't you care about Zhao Shaofei?" And what about today? You don't have to worry about what I'm going to do to you, haven't you been able to tell who is worth believing in yet? β
Yu Ximeng was shocked, she didn't expect Shuangzhi to know that she and Zhao Shaofei had a past, although she didn't have complete trust in Fu Shuangzhi now, but in some places, she admired this sister-in-law from the bottom of her heart, and knew that she was not a person who would frame others in secret, but what did she mean by asking?
"Sister-in-law, although Zhao Shaofei is not the murderer, he can't escape from it, do you think I still have thoughts about him?" Yu Ximeng lowered her head and sneered.
"That's great!" Shuangzhi breathed a sigh of relief, "If Zhao Shaofei does something to hurt Shi Can or even the entire Shi family, what should you do?" β
Yu Xi Mengxun raised his head, and a strong ruthlessness burst out from his eyes, "He dares!" β
"Do you know what kind of business they are doing?" Shuangzhi sighed and asked Yu Ximeng.
Yu Ximeng looked at Shuangzhi suspiciously, how did she think that her sister-in-law had something to say today.
"I don't talk nonsense with you, Zhao Shaofei instigated the second master to sell illicit salt, you must know, if this is found out, it is a crime to rob the family, it has nothing to do with our general's mansion, but I don't want to watch the second master have an accident, so I came to you." Double to deep channel.
This is what she just found out, when she learned that Shi Can and they were selling illicit salt, she was really surprised, and she really wanted to arrest them immediately and scold them, in ancient times, selling illicit salt was almost as serious as modern drug trafficking, although Shi Can's accident with them may not affect the General's Mansion, but the old lady is still on their side, and the General's Mansion cannot sit idly by, and if it is used by someone with a heart, this is also very unfavorable to Shi Tuo.
Yu Ximeng's face turned pale and exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible! β
"How could it not be? If it wasn't for selling illicit salt, why did it cost so much, why did it make such a big profit, do you really think that the second master is a genius in business? Shuangzhi asked aggressively.
Yu Ximeng shook his head, "However, I have read the account book, and the profit is not much at all." β
"That's it, the second master was used by Zhao Shaofei at all! The wood is hollow, it is full of private salt, if you want to enter the city and go out of the city, it is these woods, if you don't look carefully, I'm afraid that no one will be able to see that there is something inside, even Mrs. Zheng was almost fooled, and the second master himself must not know how profitable the private salt is and was used by Zhao Shaofei. Shuangzhi frowned.
"I don't believe it, sister-in-law, this is absolutely impossible, how can private salt be obtained so easily, the second master is ...... He ......, "Yu Ximeng has some six gods and no master, what should I do?"
Shuangzhi smiled coldly, "You think I'm going to joke about something like this?" Whether you believe it or not, now you have to find a way to help the Shi family get through this difficulty. β
"You...... You're going to help us? Yu Ximeng actually believed what Shuangzhi said in her heart, but she subconsciously hoped that this was fake, she knew very well what kind of crime it was to sell illicit salt, even if she didn't cut off her head, she would have to go to prison, she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in prison.
She just didn't want Shi Tuo to be implicated in the future, not to mention that the old lady was not young, if something really happened, they couldn't stand idly by, "After you go back today, I will use someone to pick up the old lady over." β
"Sister-in-law, do you want to break up the relationship with our second room?" Yu Ximeng exclaimed and shouted urgently, "Is this relationship clear?" β
"I can't tell you, but you can't let the old lady be affected by the second room, don't worry, I didn't ignore it, listen, if you want to keep the second master, you can only use one person!" Shuangzhi was silent for a while before he spoke, his bright eyes staring straight at Yu Ximeng.
Yu Ximeng unconsciously already believed in Shuangzhi and relied on her, "Who to use?" β
"Zhao Shaofei!" Shuangzhi's eyes flashed, and he said the name coldly.
Yu Ximeng was stunned, but soon her eyes turned fierce, "Sister-in-law, what should I do?" β
Shuangzhi was tired at the corners of his mouth, and whispered to teach the method, and the snow outside the window seemed to have signs that it was about to stop.
The next day, the snow was cold, and Shuangzhi had already sent someone to take the old lady to the general's mansion, although the old lady hesitated, but he thought that his daughter-in-law was filial, so he moved back.
At the same time, Shuangzhi also called Fu Minxun to the General's Mansion again and advised him to give up business, she already knew what he was doing, but Fu Minxun was lustful for profit, where was he willing to give up this opportunity to make money, Shuangzhi announced that he Fu Minxun had nothing to do with the Fu family from now on, whether he was alive or dead, whether he was poor or rich, and the Fu family had nothing to do with it, and instead of Fu Lao and his three high-fives in front of the hall, all family affection was cut off.
After Fu Minxun left, Shuangzhi immediately repaired the book and returned to the Fu family, and explained the matter to Master Fu, she praised and praised the afterlude to the prelude, everything was just for the sake of the Fu family, and the Fu family could not afford to be pushed to the tip of the knife again.
Let's say that after the old lady received the general's mansion, Shi Can was seriously ill, and Yu Ximeng handed over the affairs of the family to Shi Xianshu to take care of in order to take care of Shi Can, and Zhao Shaofei also made his own decisions on the size of the business.
Shi Can can't take care of business, Zhao Shaofei wanted the old lady to come forward to take charge of business matters several times, but he was blocked out of the general's mansion, even if he came in, he would be rejected by Shuangzhi in a few words, now the old lady is rarely happy, how can he let the old lady worry about other things?
Zhao Shaofei was puzzled in his heart, guessing that it was difficult for Shuangzhi to see something, but then he felt that it was impossible, what he did was very secret, and it would not be revealed.
That's it, it's okay, without Shi Can's drag, he can do things more happily, and the profits are greater, with the Guo family to build a good relationship for him, he will soon be able to leave the Shi family, and he doesn't have to rely on people anymore.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Can's body is still not improving, and the family's business has always been managed by Zhao Shaofei, and almost the entire family business is now in the hands of the couple.
Shi Can has been hiding from the old lady here, of course, Shuangzhi knows that Shi Can is not really seriously ill, so people are not allowed to mention half a sentence to the old lady, even the old lady's two aunts dare not talk much, but they have seen the scene when Aunt Jing was carried home, and offending Mrs. Jun is like that.
However, things are not completely in the hands of Shuangzhi.
On this day, the whole family is already making New Year's goods, and the old lady makes people call Shuangzhi to have something to say.
Shuangzhi has guessed in her heart what the old lady is looking for her, she put on a big coat, waved the stove on the sedan chair, came to the old lady's study, the maids have spread a layer of carpet on the ground, and the parsley helped Shuangzhi to get off the sedan chair.
In the study, there was only the old lady, and her face was not very good-looking.
"Daddy." Shuangzhi bowed and bowed, feeling a little apprehensive.
The old lady sighed and said in a deep voice, "You sit down, I have something to ask you." β
Shuangzhi sat down according to his words, lowered his eyebrows and ears, and did not dare to say more.
"Shuangzhi, let me ask you, what's going on at home?" The old lady asked bluntly, looking at Shuangzhi with bright eyes.
Shuangzhi smiled slightly, "Everything is fine, Dad, don't worry." β
"How are you doing? Tuo'er hasn't had any news in the past two months, you haven't said it, Can'er is so sick that she can't get out of bed for a month, you haven't mentioned it, Shuangzhi, do you want no one to send me to the end in the future, ah? The old lady was furious and slapped the table and shouted.
Shuangzhi's heart sank, mentioning Shi Tuo, her heart was like being cut by a blunt knife, she was also worried about Shi Tuo, she also wanted to get news from Shi Tuo, but ...... There was nothing, "Dad, my daughter-in-law has already sent someone to Pingzhou City, and there will be news of her husband soon." β
"What about Can'er? Why don't you tell me Can'er is sick? The old lady asked.
"My daughter-in-law just doesn't want your old man to worry." Double to bow the head.
"I see that you are simply in power, and you want me to have no one to send you to the end in the future, I know, you hate the second room, you just want Can'er to die of illness so much, right?" The old lady looked at Shuangzhi sadly, he didn't expect her to become such a person.
Shuangzhi gritted his teeth, "Dad, my daughter-in-law doesn't dare to think like this." β
"Don't you dare? Is there anything else you wouldn't dare? The old lady exclaimed.
"Daddy......" Shuangzhi didn't know how to explain, if he explained everything to the old lady at this time, I am afraid it would be too early to say, although the wolf was trapped, it was not time to close the net.
"You don't have to say anything, I'm going to move back, and I won't come to your general's mansion in the future! lest I provoke you in the future! The old lady snorted heavily.
"No, you can't!" Shuangzhi shouted urgently, seeing the old lady's round eyes, she hurriedly explained slowly, "If it is cold today, the second master is sick in bed, and he can't fulfill his filial piety, so it's better for you to ...... in winter."
"What? It's just a few steps away, and I can't freeze to death! After that, the old lady had already waved his sleeves and wanted to leave the study, but at this moment, Shi Yinzhu came in.
"Big brother, something is wrong!" Shi Yinzhu hurriedly shouted when he saw the old lady.
The old lady was taken aback, "Could it be Can'er......?"
"Can'er, this son of a scumbag, actually sold illicit salt, just now I have told me all the money, this is a big crime, big brother, what should I do." Shi Yinzhu was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, and asked the old lady what he meant.
The old lady widened her eyes and turned her head to look at Shuangzhi, "Shuangzhi, is this true or false?" β
Shuangzhi frowned, knowing that he couldn't hide it, and nodded slightly.
The old lady's head froze, and suddenly she couldn't breathe, and fell to the ground with a thud.
Chapter 169: Death in Anger
The old lady suddenly fell to the ground, Shi Yinzhu was startled, and shouted, "Big brother......
Shuangzhi was also frightened, and hurriedly walked over, "Quick, carry the old lady to the soft couch, and let the person go to the doctor." β
Mrs. Zheng had already come over to hold down the old lady's people, and after a while, the old lady opened her somewhat cloudy eyes and was speechless.
"Dad, don't worry, things can be saved, and the second master may not have an accident." Shuangzhi stood on the side of the soft couch and comforted the old lady.
The old lady closed her eyes and laughed and cried, "What kind of crime is selling smuggled salt, don't you know?" How else can it be saved? β
"The daughter-in-law knows very well, but the second master doesn't know, it's just that someone deliberately takes advantage of the second master's illness to secretly sell illegal salt." Shuangzhi smiled slightly and whispered to the old lady.
The old lady was stunned for a moment, and couldn't figure out the meaning of Shuangzhi's words for a while?
"Old lady, don't worry, it'll be fine." Shuangzhi frowned, his voice a little pumping.
The old lady nodded, "I caused the trouble, if it wasn't for Zhao Shaofei, Can'er wouldn't be ......"
"Now Can'er is the husband and wife in charge, and Xianshu regards herself as the housewife." Shi Yinzhu said angrily, I really didn't expect Zhao Shaofei and his wife to be so ignorant.
"Dad, aunt, you don't have to worry about the second master, with his younger siblings here, he will be fine." Double Solstice Road.
The old lady was disheartened and looked very depressed, "Well, you all go out, let me be quiet." β
Shuangzhi and Shi Yinzhu glanced at each other before saluting, Shi Yinzhu was not worried about the old lady, so he waited outside the door, for fear that something would happen.
Shuangzhi was helped into the sedan chair by Mrs. Zheng and went back to the upper room.
"Ma'am, are you alright?" Seeing beads of sweat on her forehead, Parsley asked worriedly.
Shuangzhi gasped, "I...... I'm afraid I'm going to give birth! β
Several maids were shocked when they heard this, but fortunately, Mrs. Zheng was calmer, "Quick, go and invite Mrs. Wen over." β
Fortunately, a few days ago, two stable women were screened to stay in the house, and Linglan was already in a hurry and couldn't do anything to ask for stable women.
Mrs. Zheng hugged Shuangzhi into the inner room, "Hurry up and let the small kitchen boil water!" β
Shuangzhi grabbed Mrs. Zheng's hand and endured the pain, "Don't let the old lady know for the time being!" β
In fact, when she was in the study just now, she already felt that her lower abdomen was falling, but at this time, the old lady really shouldn't be angry, just now she saw that the corners of the old lady's mouth twitched a little, which is not a good phenomenon.
"The old slave remembers." Mrs. Zheng hurriedly took off the big curtain of Shuangzhi and covered her with the quilt, and Mrs. Wen came over quickly, and the entire maid ring in the upper room was busy, but she did not disturb the old lady in an orderly manner.
"Madame, inhale, exhale......"
"Take it easy ......"
Shuangzhi was sweating profusely, and her mind seemed to be blank, so she could only subconsciously listen to Mrs. Zheng giving her instructions next to her.
She wanted to see Shi Tuo.
She wished he could be by her side at this time.
"It hurts!" Shuangzhi screamed, feeling like the strength of his whole body was draining.
"Madame, forcefully ..." One of the two stable women is giving birth, and the other is caressing Shuangzhi's belly.
On the other hand, Shi Yinzhu waited outside the door for a while, and suddenly a girl came to whisper a few words, she was taken aback, looked at the old lady's house, and then looked outside the yard, gritted her teeth, and flicked her sleeves to the door of the backyard.
In the alley outside the backyard door, listening to a dilapidated carriage, Shi Yinzhu came to the carriage, "Can'er, cherish your dreams?" β
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing Shi Can's face, although his face was ugly, it didn't look like he was seriously ill, "Auntie." β
Shi Yinzhu hurriedly asked people to help the couple down, "What the hell is going on?" How did you get kicked out? β
Yu Ximeng clenched his teeth, "It's us who want to leave, if we don't leave, we won't even be as good as a minion!" β
Shi Yinzhu frowned and sighed, "Let's go back to the house first." β
Now, Shi Yinzhu couldn't hide it anymore, so he took Shi Can and Yu Ximeng to the old lady, and it happened that the old lady woke up and was drinking medicine.
When Shi Can and his wife appeared, the old lady was very surprised, "Why are you here?" β
Shi Can scratched his head and said angrily, "It's all that Zhao Shaofei, I just handed over the business to him for a month, and he actually took all my family property, although he didn't drive me out, but ...... But the words have already implied that we are just eating idle meals, and Dad, I will be waiting for someone to kick them out tomorrow. β
"Yes, the mansion was bought for us by my sister-in-law, so why can't it be cheaper, Zhao Shaofei!" Yu Ximeng posted.
"The matter of the house is a trivial matter, with the deed in hand, I am not afraid of them playing tricks, but what about Shi Can's business? That's the Shi family's business, how can you say that Zhao Shaofei occupied it? Does he really think he is the son-in-law of the Shi family? "Shi Yin Zhu Dao." But now the shopkeeper on the counter is listening to Zhao Shaofei's words, how can I be the master? "Shi Can doesn't have a good airway.
The old lady, who had been silent, suddenly slapped the bed hard, glared at Shi Can, and shouted angrily, "Rebel, you kneel down for me!" β
Shi Can was stunned by the yelling, and when he saw the old lady, he trembled with anger, didn't dare to say more, and knelt down.
"Let me ask you, are you using the Shi family's business to sell illicit salt?" The old lady glared at him and asked.
The voice was full of disappointment.
Shi Can said, "Dad, it was Zhao Shaofei who began to bluff me and said that I could make a lot of money by selling illicit salt, but I didn't expect him to be greedy from it, I didn't make much money at all, and ...... And I didn't sell illicit salt anymore. β
Shi Can is different from Zhao Shaofei, he has been used to brocade clothes and jade food since he was a child, and he is a person with weak willpower, and he has a father to rely on, he will not be able to behead himself or be imprisoned for silver, so when Yu Ximeng questioned him, he was already scared, and later agreed to Ximeng's method, pretending to be sick and no longer selling illegal salt with Zhao Shaofei, who knew that Zhao Shaofei was so ruthless and swallowed everything for him!
"Do you have a brain, is it something you can touch? You Lao Tzu is relying on his own hands to fight the world, you are good, not to mention the defeat of the family business with an outsider, you still touch this kind of thing that robs the family and exterminates the family, if there is no Shuangzhi, how you die now I don't know! The old lady gasped heavily, and her voice was already out of breath.
"That's it...... is just twenty percent, and the eldest brother is the one who gets the Shi family's business. Shi Can retorted in a low voice.
The old lady's eyes widened, and she suddenly laughed out loud, "I actually gave birth to a son like you who didn't take care of you, fortunately I didn't hand over all the business to you at the beginning, otherwise I wouldn't have the face to meet the ancestors of the Shi family in the future!" β
"Dad, your lord has to do so badly, isn't it okay now? No one else knew that I used to sell illicit salt. "He really doesn't understand, isn't there nothing to do now? It's just that Zhao Shaofei took away his family property, as long as the eldest brother comes out, I'm afraid that there will be someone who can't get it back?
"Can'er, why do you talk like this, when something happens, it's too late." Shi Yinzhu scolded Shi Can, looking at the old lady with a blue face worriedly.
Shi Can exclaimed, "Isn't it? Now you will only blame me, if I didn't split up at the beginning, how could I end up like this, you only favor the eldest brother, because the eldest brother is the son-in-law, so it accounts for eighty percent of the property, all these years I have stayed by your side, why did you only get so much family property in the end, but the eldest brother can become a general? β
The old lady looked at Shi Can expressionlessly, and the room was suddenly a little silent, only the sound of breathing remained.
"Big brother......" Shi Yinzhu looked at the old lady, very worried about his calm reaction.
Burst! Suddenly, the old lady spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person lay straight on the bed.
"Daddy......" Shi Can was startled, and hurriedly knelt down to the edge of the bed, his face pale.
Shi Yinzhu screamed, "Go and chase the doctor back!" β
Yu Ximeng looked at the old lady who had already held her breath in horror, and came outside the house in a panic, "Quick, quickly send someone to the room and call Mrs. over." β
"Big brother, big brother......" Shi Yinzhu shook the old lady's hand, but the old lady didn't react at all.
Shi Can was so frightened that he couldn't say anything, "Dad...... Daddy......"
Shi Yinzhu slapped Shi Can's face, "You brute!" β
Shi Can cried, but couldn't say a word.
Yu Ximeng ran up with a pale face, "Auntie, sister-in-law...... My sister-in-law is about to give birth. β
"What?" Shi Yinzhu stood up, and suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, "Don't let Shuangzhi know about the old lady, let her give birth to the child first." β
"Auntie, what should I do now?" Shi Can was so nervous that his voice changed tone.
Shi Yinzhu shouted, "You will now ask how to do it, when you sold illicit salt, why didn't you think about the consequences!" β
Shi Can pursed his lips, his mind blank.
Not long after leaving, the doctor was chased back by the maid ring of the general's mansion, and when he saw the old lady's face, he was horrified, and immediately twisted his beard to check the pulse of the old lady.
Shi Yinzhu, Shi Can and others all looked at the doctor nervously, hoping that the old lady would be safe and sound, and now that no one in the family can be the master, nothing can happen.
The doctor frowned and stood up, "Why are you suddenly angry?" I can't stand the fright, joy and sorrow, and I am so angry, hey......"
"Doctor, what do you mean by that?" Shi Yinzhu asked with fear.
The doctor shook his head, "There is no way to return to the sky, you should prepare for the future!" β
Shi Canru was struck by lightning, and the whole person sat softly on the ground.
On the upper side of the room, Xiangqin and a few girls were sending hot water back and forth, and they were all shocked when they heard the news from the old lady, but they didn't dare to say a word to Shuangzhi, so they had to wait for Mrs. to give birth to the child first.
Tossed until noon on the second day, Shuangzhi finally gave birth to the child, and was about to let people go back to the old lady, but heard that the old lady was critically ill, and wanted to see the old lady was critically ill, and wanted to see her.
Shuangzhi was shocked, didn't care about any confinement customs, and hurriedly went to the old lady's house, but her body was still very weak, and she had to be held by Mrs. Zheng and Parsley all the way.
When the old lady saw Shuangzhilai, her eyes, which were about to open, flashed with a glint of light, "Grandson ......"
Shuangzhi's eyes were red, "Dad, it's a grandson, it's a big fat boy." β
The old lady winked and smiled with satisfaction, and continued to speak with difficulty, "I...... When I die, I will ...... Drive Zhao Shaofei out of the house, no, don't let him wear filial piety! β
Shuangzhi groaned in tears and nodded in agreement.
The old lady closed her eyes, and a thick tear slipped from the corner of her eye, and went.
Chapter 170: No filial piety
Shuangzhi just gave birth to a child, and during the confinement, he couldn't participate in the funeral, the old lady's ## #εδ½ζζ’¦εη³ιΆζ±ε¨ζε, and the eldest son Shi Tuo had no news, so he had to let people hold the little young master who had not yet opened his eyes and put the incense burner on the mourning hall.
Set up a mourning hall, wait for longevity, and enter the funeral, but set the day of going out of the mountain, and all the people are waiting for Shi Tuo's news.
At this time, it was the New Year's Festival, and the whole Jingzhao was full of joy, and everyone was happy to celebrate the New Year, but only the General's Mansion was gloomy.
"Why is there no news of Tuo'er yet? The people sent to Pingzhou City have also lost contact, which ...... What can I do? Shi Yinzhu and Yu Ximeng both came to the Shuangzhi house, and everyone was anxious.
Shuangzhi lowered his eyes, and the knuckles of his clenched fists were slightly white.
"Isn't there something going on? This old lady has to wait for the uncle to come back before she can go out of the mountain, sister-in-law, what do you say this should be? Yu Ximeng asked, stirring his handkerchief.
"Where's the second master?" Shuangzhi asked in a low voice, she had already asked the old lady about the things in the old lady's house that day, if it weren't for Shi Can, the old lady wouldn't have been so angry that she vomited blood.
"Filial piety in the mourning hall, sister-in-law, don't blame the second master, he knows his mistake." Yu Ximeng whispered for her husband's intercession.
The corners of Shuangzhi's mouth hooked up a sneer, "If the second master knew his mistake, how could he be today?" At the beginning, you were still forced with your life, so he was willing to pretend to be sick and not sell illicit salt, he lost all his family property, not to mention, and now he is angry with his father, and the family will suffer in the future, and the Shi family can no longer tolerate him. β
"Sister-in-law!" Yu Ximeng's face turned pale, she stood up and looked at Shuangzhi with round eyes.
"Even if the uncle can forgive him, can the elders of the clan tolerate him? Brother and sister, you can decide for yourself. Shuangzhi's voice was very flat, from this old lady's funeral, seeing the door of the door, you can know the status of the General's Mansion in the court now, if Shi Can's sale of illicit salt is revealed, the General's Mansion will be affected.
"You...... What are you going to drive out of the General's Palace? Yu Ximeng's chest rose and fell violently, now that they had lost everything in their second room, if they were kicked out of the Shi family again, what would they do?
"Leave Jingzhao! No matter where you go, you can't appear in Jingzhao and Pujing City! Shuangzhi raised his eyes, and looked at Yu Ximeng with a firm and cold gaze.
Shi Yinzhu frowned, unable to object to Shuangzhi's decision.
"No......" Yu Ximeng shook her head, she didn't want to become nothing.
"No?" Shuangzhi raised his voice, "Do you still have the right to say no?" The Shi family and the General's Mansion can't just because something happened to you, if you don't leave, how can I deal with Zhao Shaofei? How to keep the second master? β
Yu Ximeng was stunned and glanced at Shi Yinzhu, "What do you mean?" β
Shuangzhi smiled, "Let's wait and see what happens!" β
As soon as the words fell, the curtain was beaten, and Linglan got up and said, "Madam, the second master fought with Zhao Shaofei at the door." β
Shi Yinzhu stood up, "What a mess is this, Can'er doesn't think it's annoying enough at home!" β
Shuangzhi also got down from the bed and asked Parsley to put on a big hat for her.
"Madam, it's windy today, so don't go." Mrs. Zheng said.
"Yes, Shuangzhi, let's go out and beat that Zhao Shaofei away, we don't let him wear filial piety, and there is no need to say anything to him." Shi Yin Zhu Dao.
Shuangzhi thought about it, under the care of Mrs. Zheng in the past few days, her body has recovered, and she is not as weak as they imagined, "It's okay, I have to go to meet him for a while today!" β
Mrs. Zheng didn't expect her to listen to their persuasion, so she had already prepared a hand stove and a hat, and wrapped her hands tightly from head to toe, revealing only a blood-colored and ruddy face.
Outside the gate of the mansion in the front yard, Shi Can and Zhao Shaofei were stalemate with each other, and Shi Xianshu stood behind her husband and scolded Shi Can screaming.
Shuangzhi Yingying walked down the stone steps and looked at Zhao Shaofei and Shi Xianshu with a haughty attitude, "What's the matter?" The old lady's coffin has not yet come out of the mountain, why did you fight with outsiders at the door, second master? β
Shi Can turned his head and saw that it was Shuangzhi, Shi Yinzhu and the others, and immediately restrained his arrogance, "Auntie, sister-in-law!" β
Shi Yinzhu glared at him, "What's the matter, it's embarrassing outside the door?" "It's my father who said not to give ......it to him before he died," Shi Cankou wanted to say that the old lady didn't let Zhao Shaofei wear filial piety.
Shuangzhi interrupted, "There are guests who want to give incense to the old lady, how can the second master refuse?" β
Zhao Shaofei looked at Shuangzhi expressionlessly, "Mrs. Jun, you keep saying that we are outsiders, and the second master doesn't say that we are not allowed to wear filial piety, should we give an explanation to our husband and wife?" β
Shi Xianshu said, "That's right, Shaofei is a son-in-law and half of his father's son, why can't he wear filial piety?" β
Shuangzhi Yingying smiled, "Big girl, haven't you forgotten that the patriarch of the Shi family didn't agree to let Zhao Gongzi join him, since he didn't agree, how can he be regarded as a member of the Shi family?" β
Shi Xianshu was angry, "Even if you don't get in, it's also a son-in-law, why don't you let us in?" β
"Now I have to ask you and your wife what they did, why are you so angry that the old lady will not allow you to wear filial piety before he dies?" Shuangzhi asked coldly.
Zhao Shaofei's face sank, his eyes gloomily glanced at Shi Can, and he thought to himself, could it be that Shi Can told the matter of selling illicit salt? How could it be, he didn't want to die himself?
Shi Xianshu was a little weak-hearted, "We...... What did we do? β
Shuangzhi snorted, "Not to mention that the two of you occupy the second master's family business, and also drive the second master and his wife out of the mansion, how can the old lady forgive you, the mansion deed is clearly written in the name of the second master, you are only guests at best, why do you drive people?" β
Zhao Shaofei laughed, his heart relaxed, it turned out that it was just this matter, "Mrs. Jun, you only know one and don't know the other, this mansion has been taken out by the second master, and now the deed is in my hands, who is the owner I don't know." β
Shuangzhi glanced coldly at Shi Can, who was weak-hearted, "So, so what?" The old lady doesn't let you wear filial piety, and we can't help listening, Zhao Gongzi, big girl, please! β
Shi Xianshu was indignant, "I can't worship my father, you ...... How can you ...... It's quite unreasonable, this is clearly not letting me incense my father, you are too ruthless. β
There were already some guests who wanted to mourn outside the general's mansion, and when they saw this scene, they all stopped to watch, not knowing what was going on.
"The old lady said before she died, whether your husband and wife are promoted to official wealth or poor and begging in the future, whether they live or die has nothing to do with our Shi family, even if you kill people and set fires, do all the bad things in the world, or do all kinds of good things every day, and become a person admired by the world, it has nothing to do with us, you, Shi Xianshu, the daughter who married out of the water, deceived the brother and sister-in-law, and the Shi family has been cut off with you since then, you marry anyone surnamed Zhao surnamed Li, and the gate of the Shi family does not allow you to step into half a step!" Cutting off the relationship with Shi Xianshu, that is, with Zhao Shaofei from now on, everyone in Jingzhaocheng should know that the General's Mansion and Zhao Shaofei are no longer related.
Zhao Shaofei's face changed slightly, and he seemed to hear something from Shuangzhi's words, and when he listened to it all, he thought about it carefully, and was shocked in his heart, he was used by Shuangzhi's calculations!
She wants him to bear all the sins of Shi Can! She wants to blame him for everything about selling illicit salt!
She already knows it all!
"Mrs. County, what a deep plan, admire and admire!" Now he understood why Shi Can suddenly fell ill, why Yu Ximeng suddenly handed over the power of the family to Shi Xianshu, and endured Xianshu's difficulties and ridicule everywhere, and even put all the business into his hands, this is all Fu Shuangzhi's calculation!
Shuangzhi ignored Zhao Shaofei, she glanced around, tears flashed in her eyes, "My husband has not had any news for several months, life and death are uncertain, the old lady was angry with his daughter to death, and he can't go out of the mountain when he is buried. β
Shi Xianshu moved her mouth, but she couldn't say a word, and there was already a voice of reprimand in the crowd.
Zhao Shaofei's face became more and more ugly.
"Mrs. Jun, do you think you can really keep the second master? If you have done it, you have done it, if something happens to me, I naturally want to bite the second master out! Zhao Shaofei gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, his eyes were grim.
Shuangzhi wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and his voice was hard, "Zhao Gongzi, when the family was separated, there were many things to teach the second master to do business, the second master didn't understand anything, with you beside him to guide him, the business naturally became bigger, but now you have occupied the second master's family property, please raise your noble hand and let our family go!" β
Zhao Shaofei's face was pale, this Fu Shuangzhi really leaked everything cleanly!
He glanced at Shi Can fiercely and smiled at Shuangzhi, "Mrs. Jun, let's see!" β
"Don't send it!" double-to-jaw, and bowed to see Zhao Shaofei and his wife leave.
"Second master, there are guests who come to offer incense to the old lady, and they don't go to return the gift." Shuangzhi said to Shi Can in a soft voice.
Shi Can didn't dare to say anything more to Shuangzhi at this time, and immediately nodded, and the guests who would mourn in the future were invited into the house.
Shuangzhi waited for the female dependents to walk back to the backyard, and there was no one in the place before he breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Yinzhu couldn't help but admire, "Shuangzhi is really smart, even if Zhao Shaofei is caught selling illicit salt, others will only regard it as his business, not Can'er's business." β
Shuangzhi shook her head, she was not so relieved, "Zhao Shaofei won't give up so easily!" "He will definitely pull Shi Can into the water!
"That'...... So what to do? Yu Ximeng asked.
"Take one step at a time, after the Lantern Festival, if the uncle hasn't come back, let's go to the funeral, you send the old lady's coffin to Pujing City, and then leave immediately, go anywhere, don't contact anyone!" Double Solstice Road.
Yu Ximeng was silent, it seemed that only by doing this could Shi Can and the Shi family be saved.
Shuangzhi exhaled a breath of white air, looking at the gray sky, Shuangzhi's heart was extremely heavy, Shi Tuo, where are you?
"Husband...... Madam, Lord Yu is here. Suddenly there was an anxious voice behind him.
Chapter 171: Burning Pingzhou City
Hearing that King Yu was coming, Shuangzhi felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Now this king can be said to be a very good minister in the court, the emperor has not been in the court for a few days, I heard that this king is dealing with the twists and turns, only the master has one hand to cover the sky.
When I came to the hall again, the coffin of the old lady in the mourning hall stood alone in the center, and the light smoke curled in the incense burner.
This is after Shuangzhi came to Jingzhao, a time when he was trampling
She narrowed her eyes slightly, this king was not the same as before.
In the past, although he felt that King Yu was ambitious and arrogant, the edge was not too powerful, but what I saw today was like a sharp sword that had been unsheathed, exuding a terrifying sharp cold.
"Lord Wang." Shuangzhi came in steps, leading Shi Yinzhu and Yu Ximeng to salute the prince.
Yu Wang's deep and bottomless eyes looked straight at Shuangzhi.
Although she kept her head down, Shuangzhi felt two gloomy eyes staring at her overhead.
"Mrs. Jun, please mourn and change, this king personally came today to give Old Lady Shi a stick of incense, and I hope that his old man will go all the way." Deep cold voice, no emotion can be heard.
Shuangzhi owes a debt, "Don't dare to be, the prince is a noble body, how can the ancestor accept your incense." β
King Yu laughed lowly, "Mrs. Jun is still as bold as ever. β
Shuangzhi raised his head, his eyes were just right to mourn, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be barely maintained, "The prince has won the award." β
King Yu squinted slightly, stared at Shuangzhi with a burning eye, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Jun, the scene outside the gate is very exciting. β
"Let the prince smile." Did he see it? How long has this king been standing outside the gate?
King Yu snorted, walked around Shuangzhi, and suddenly said, "I don't know if Mrs. Jun regrets marrying Shi Tuo in the first place?" β
"Why does the prince ask like this?" Shuangzhi looked ahead, not at King Yu standing beside her.
Looking at her beautiful side face, King Yu smiled and said, "If this king wanted to marry you as a concubine, would you still marry Shi Tuo?" β
Hearing this, Shuangzhi turned his head sharply and looked at Yu Wang Ye with a calm gaze, "Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?" β
King Yu smiled, bowed his head slightly, and whispered in Shuangzhi's ear, "This king has some regrets, I knew that I shouldn't have let you marry Shi Tuo so easily. β
"Don't you think it's a good idea to say something like this?" Shuangzhi took a step back and glared coldly at King Yu.
King Yu raised his head and laughed, his laughter was full of arrogance and invincibility, "Who dares to talk about this king now?" Whether it is the Son of Heaven or the common people, who is qualified to say that this king is not? β
At this time, there were only a few people left in the general's mansion in the mourning hall, and the other guests who came to mourn had been invited out by King Yu's subordinates at some point.
Shuangzhi's chest rose and fell violently, and she could almost foresee the difficulties that the General's Mansion would face next.
"Lord Wang, you are high, how can you deal with us ignorant women and children." Shuangzhi smiled and looked at King Yu's arrogant face.
"Ignorant women and children? Mrs. County, are you being humble by this? It's not easy to get the Shi family out of touch with the sale of smuggled salt. Yu Wang sneered.
Shuangzhi's face sank, "The meaning of what the prince said is really incomprehensible. β
"It doesn't matter if you understand it or not, but what I came to talk to Mrs. County today, Mrs. County must listen clearly and figure it out." Yu Wang sat down in the wide-back chair and looked at Shuangzhi with a smile.
Shuangzhi faced him, and felt inexplicably panicked in his heart, not afraid of King Yu, but afraid of what he was about to say.
"Lord Wang, please speak." She asked calmly.
The corners of King Yu's mouth hooked up a smile, "Mrs. County hasn't received the news yet, three days ago, Pingzhou City was burned." β
Double to one earthquake, Pingzhou City ...... Burned? What does that mean?
"The mob in Pingzhou City rebelled, besieged and slaughtered the city, burned Pingzhou City, and half of the husbands in the city survived." King Yu seems to be telling a story, calm and interesting.
Shuangzhi only felt a buzz in his ears, and Yu Wang's voice sounded so ethereal.
"I heard that General Shi was in Pingzhou City at that time...... "Yu Wang continued.
Shuangzhi felt cold all over his body and couldn't help but tremble.
"The whole city has been reduced to ashes, and this king is about to send troops to suppress the mob, if there is any news of General Shi, he will inform the county lady at a time." King Yu seemed to appreciate the expression on Shuangzhi's face at this time, and the smile in his eyes was even more powerful.
Take a deep breath and calm down! Be sure to calm down! Shi Tuo will be fine, absolutely nothing will happen!
She heard the third brother say that the people of Pingzhou City are strange, not like ordinary people at all, and they may be related to King Yu, and why did this riot have no signs before? Although the country of Great Qi is not prosperous and prosperous, it is also rich and strong, and there is peace everywhere, why are there mobs? It doesn't make sense......
She looked at King Yu, and saw in his narrow eyes the ruthlessness that had never been restrained, and this matter must have nothing to do with him!
Endure! Calm down! It was the word that kept coming to her mind.
She tugged at the corners of her mouth, although her face was pale, she had calmed down, and only Shi Yinzhu, who stepped forward to support her arm, knew how much she trembled.
"So...... Just trouble the prince, if there is any news of my husband, please let me know. She shook off Shi Yinzhu's hand and stepped forward to salute, she would never be defeated by this man in a few words!
Although Shi Tuo will be fine, he hasn't seen his son yet, and he hasn't watched the sunset and sunrise with her, how can he, how can he leave her alone?
Yu Wang's gloomy eyes had a glow flowing, and he stood up, unceremoniously hooking his chin.
"What are you going to do?" Shi Can, Shi Yinzhu and the others all took a step forward, vigilantly and panicked, looking at the man they couldn't deal with.
King Yu looked at them and smiled coldly, and looked down at Shuangzhi.
"This king has never done anything he regrets, but now he regrets it." After taking a deep look at Shuangzhi's beautiful face, his voice softened, "Are you willing to be the woman of this king?" β
Shuangzhi's eyelashes are lowered, "Lord Wang, go slowly!" β
King Yu's eyes were full of anger, but he didn't seem surprised by Shuangzhi's answer, let go of his hand, and he strode out of the general's mansion with his hands in his hands.
Shuangzhi's eyes were dark, and his feet softened, but fortunately, Mrs. Zheng immediately came over to support her, "Madam, take care of your body." β
Sitting on a chair with his support, Parsley had already brought tea to him.
Taking a sip, she breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes were terribly red, as if countless tears had condensed, but not a single drop could fall.
"Tuo'er, he ......" Shi Yinzhu said cautiously, for fear of touching Shuangzhi's sore spot.
Shuangzhi smiled slightly, but his smile was very pale, "Husband will be fine, you don't have to worry." β
Shi Yinzhu nodded stiffly, "Yes, yes, Tuo'er Fu has a big life, how can there be anything?" β
But in fact, except for the Shuangzhi accident, there is no hope in everyone's hearts.
"That'...... Does Daddy have to wait for the eldest brother when he comes out of the mountain? Shi Can was out of place, but he had to say what everyone was concerned about.
Shuangzhi's eyes fell on the coiled cigarettes and the old lady's tablet, and closed his eyes, "After the Lantern Festival, let's go out of the funeral and let people choose an hour." β
Everyone looked at Shuangzhi worriedly and replied yes.
Back in the upper room, Shuangzhi asked people to carry the child over.
Looking at the toddler who had not yet opened her eyes, her heart was empty, and all her thoughts were mixed up.
Fair and soft skin, full of hope and vigorous life, this is her and Shi Tuo's child, but Shi Tuo has never seen it at a glance, how can he ......
The heat rushed into her eyes, and she hurriedly tilted her head back, forcing the heat back.
She knew it wouldn't be fake! It must be a ploy by King Yu, he wants to take the opportunity to get rid of Shi Tuo and slaughter the city...... He's so ruthless!
"Madam......" Mrs. Zheng and the others all looked at her worriedly.
Shuangzhi opened his eyes and handed the child to the nurse, "I'm fine, find someone to go to the city gate and see if the emperor list comes out?" β
If the news of Shi Tuo's accident in Pingzhou City comes out, it will inevitably cause a lot of uproar, I am afraid that even people's hearts will be unstable, and I don't know what will happen to the noble man in the palace?
Suddenly, Shuangzhi's eyes sharpened, Shi Tuo's matter ...... Does it have anything to do with Qin Ziyin?
"Mrs. Zheng, what news has you had in the palace lately?" Since Qin Ziyin became the imperial concubine, Shuangzhi has always been very concerned about her, although he was not able to send someone to the palace to inquire about her, but he also made people inquire.
"I can't ask anything in the palace now." Mrs. Zheng said, this also made her feel very strange, she had always been well-informed about the news in the palace, but this time it seems that all channels in the palace have been blocked, and there is no news at all.
Shuangzhi frowned and asked, "Where has the general's army always camped?" β
Zheng Pozi said, "It's on the Baicao slope three hundred miles away from Jingzhao City. β
"You go and see if you can ask about something." Shuangzhi was already relaxed, his eyes were calm, and his slender fingers swirled back and forth on the lid of the cup.
"Yes!" Although I don't know what Mrs. meant when she asked her to inquire about the barracks, Mrs. Zheng still took the order to go out.
At night, the General's Mansion fell into silence, there was no half a star in the sky, and tonight, probably no one could sleep.
Shuangzhi finally had a sense of sleep when it was almost dawn, but she couldn't sleep well, imagining the scene of the fire and slaughter of Pingzhou City, she felt as if her heart was being clutched, and her limbs were so painful that she lost consciousness.
"Madam, husband, ma'am, it's not good......" A panicked cry came from outside.
Shuangzhi's eyelids jumped, where was there still sleep, and hurriedly turned over the quilt and got off the bed.
Deqin and Rong Lan came in with the curtain, and their faces were not very good-looking.
"What's wrong?" Shuangzhi asked, while putting on his clothes.
Rong Lan had already come over to serve Shuangzhi to wipe his face.
Xiangqin said, "Zhao Shaofei was arrested by the government and confessed the second master, and the official is now about to arrest the second master." β
Shuangzhi was taken aback and stood up, "What? β
"Fang Cai came over from the second lady's room, shouting, and she was frightened when she thought about it." Xiangqin said, secretly praying in her heart, hoping that the catastrophe of the General's Mansion would pass soon, and everything would be stacked one by one.
Shuangzhi exhaled slowly, "What about the second master?" β
"It's still in the house, and the official errand is also considered to be face-saving, and he didn't forcibly come in and arrest people!" Parsley Road.
Shuangzhi stood up, "Let's go, go to the second master." β
It seems that Shi Can can't escape this time.
