Chapter 10: Grounded in the Ancestral Hall
In the end, the family law still did not fall on Huo Jiuge, and after this incident, Old Man Huo's attitude towards Huo Jiuge changed, although she was divorced by the royal family, but at least she was not as stupid as the outside world said, but she was quite smart and clever.
In the end, she was only punished for grounding in the Huo family ancestral hall, it seems that the old man still values her identity as a granddaughter, and this punishment is already relatively light.
Even Huo Changbai, who had just spoken for Huo Qingshang, was punished for half a month's grounding, and then copied the Huo family's rules ten times, just because he committed the following offense and said a few words about Huo Jiuge.
Just when everyone thought that the matter was over like this and were about to return to their respective courtyards, Old Man Huo suddenly stopped the Qin family, and then specially instructed: "Qingshang is a woman who is out of the cabinet after all, you have to take her less to show up in the future, although Jiu Ge was divorced by the royal family, she is still a member of my Huo family, and you have to pay more attention to her affairs in the future." ”
Although the old man did not punish Huo Qingshang on the surface, from this sentence, the Qin family knew that he still listened to the rumors outside.
The so-called tree is bigger than the forest, and the wind will destroy it, which can be regarded as a lesson for her.
Huo Qingshang returned to his Wangshu Pavilion and slapped his personal maid Zhihua without warning.
"Did you tell her about the purse?"
At this time, where does she still have the appearance of a talented woman in the capital, she is obviously a young lady who has been arrogantly indulged.
Zhihua knew that she had misunderstood herself, so she quickly knelt down and explained: "Miss is angry, the slave really doesn't know!" ”
"Not you?" Huo Qingshang narrowed his eyes, turned around and pointed at another maid and said, "That's if you leaked the news!" ”
She firmly believed that it was the people around her who betrayed her, otherwise how would Huo Jiuge's straw bag know that the third prince had picked up her purse, and even made up a story about her love affair with the third prince.
Xiao Chengji is the only son of the current queen, his maternal ancestor is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and his uncle is also an important minister of the imperial court, so he knows from his name that he is expected to be high.
Although the emperor did not set up a crown prince, judging from the qualifications of several princes, the third prince is the most promising person to inherit the unification, and such an excellent person is engaged to Huo Jiuge.
If one day, the third prince ascends the throne as the emperor, then she Huo Jiuge will become the queen above one person and under ten thousand people, how can Huo Qingshang, who has been accustomed to being the first since childhood, endure it?
So she deliberately asked the third prince to pick up the purse embroidered with her name in order to impress him.
Huo Qingshang is very confident in himself, after all, a talented girl with a full stomach for poetry and books and a good-for-nothing straw bag, whoever chooses will choose himself.
Although Xiao Chengji did have a hint of surprise on his face after seeing her Allure appearance, this did not mean that he would definitely marry her.
Those words were all made up by Huo Jiuge, after all, with their identity, it was impossible to confront Xiao Chengji face to face, so they could only choose to believe their words for the time being.
Especially the old man Huo, who values family style and upbringing, when he learned that the third prince would divorce Huo Jiuge because of her, he had a dislike for her.
No matter how talented she is, she can't do anything that damages the face of the Huo family!
As soon as she thought of this, Huo Qingshang hated her teeth so much, she doubted all the people around her, but she never found the person who really betrayed her.
She was furious, and when the Qin family came to Wangshu Courtyard to find her, they looked at the mess in the house, and frowned unhappily.
She dismissed the maids and grandmothers around her, leaving only the two of them in the room.
"Just for that slut's words, you don't even want the good reputation of the past?" Qin's words were reproachful, but they were full of favoritism and love for his daughter.
"Although what she said was not good for us, it is a sure thing that she was divorced by the third prince, why are you going to lose your temper here now?"
"But even if she was divorced, she still occupies the title of Rongguo's daughter-in-law, you didn't see her just now and made her grandfather choose to believe her."
Huo Qingshang is right, although Old Man Huo doesn't like Huo Jiuge, but when he thinks of her parents' identity, he will remember her as a granddaughter to some extent.
Unlike these children who are born in their concubines, only very good will be favored by the old man.
For what her daughter thought, the Qin family naturally understood, she took Huo Qingshang in her arms, patted her back gently, and patiently comforted: "Don't worry, the mother will not let you be wronged in vain, my daughter is an arrogant phoenix, no matter who stands in your way, she will die!" ”
The Qin clan said this viciously, and he had already forgotten what he had promised in front of Old Man Huo just now.
"Mother, do you have a way?" Huo Qingshang looked at his mother when he heard this, but was interrupted by the Qin family, "This matter has nothing to do with you, you just need to remember that from now on, you are suffering from a cold and can't go out to meet people, as for Huo Jiuge's little slut, there is a way to deal with her for her mother." ”
Under the comfort of his mother, Huo Qingshang gradually calmed down the anger in his heart, and once again showed a dignified and gentle smile on his face.
The daughter's smile made Qin's originally dark eyes become loving.
And Huo Jiuge didn't know the plans of the Qin family's mother and daughter, she was thinking about it in the ancestral hall at this time.
The ancestral hall has not seen the sun for many years, and it is the middle of winter, as soon as I walk in, I feel that the cold wind is biting cold, and there is a smell of incense ash everywhere, the house is brightly lit, Huo Jiuge stands alone, looking indifferent and calm.
Huo Xin's tablet is located in the middle of the tablet, and on the left is the tablet of his wife Shen Jingyan.
Looking at the name on the tablet, for some reason Huo Jiuge's heart suddenly felt a pain, she understood that this feeling was not hers, but the original owner's.
The original owner's father was ordered to pick up King Yu, who had been a proton in the Western Regions for seven years, back to Beijing, but he encountered an accident on the way and lost contact with the outside world.
When her mother heard this, she took the original owner to the temple to pray for blessings, but who knew that she met robbers on the way......
All the accidents are connected, which inevitably makes people think that someone did it on purpose!
Who did the Huo family offend to cause such a murderous disaster?
Just when Huo Jiuge was thinking about this problem, a gust of wind blew through the hall, rolling up a pile of wind and snow and pouring into the ancestral hall, the candles were blown out, and the prayer flags hanging on the hall sounded indiscriminately, and the ancestral hall, which was already silent and uninhabited, became eerie and terrifying for a while.
