Seeing Lvzhu begging and not begging the master, she really turned around and left, Bai Xia was almost scared, and if the master blamed Lvzhu or sent her to the outer courtyard to do rough work, it would be more merciful than driving her out of the county palace. Zhu stepped out of the county prince's mansion, fearing that there would be an extra corpse in the mass grave tomorrow.
"Prince Princess," Bai Xia knelt down again, wanting to plead, but didn't know what to say. Ask the master to put green beads on a horse? But the master didn't beat or scold, and even let the green beads out of the house. I beg the master to keep the green beads, but which mistress can tolerate a maid who cares about the male master by her side
The corners of her lips trembled slightly, and after a while, she said, "Master is merciful."
Hua Xiwan looked at her attentively, and after a while, she retracted her gaze and said, "If any of you have someone you like, remember to tell me that we will be masters and servants, and I will not let you be wronged and married."
"Master, slaves and others have absolutely no heart for you. If you violate this statement, you must be..." Zishan Bai Xia Hongying was so frightened that her legs were weak, and she could not wait to express her heart immediately, as long as the master could believe them.
"Okay," Hua Xiwan's eyes passed through them and landed on the sun-drenched courtyard. "Get up and do whatever you need to do." After speaking, she pointed to the person who told Luzhu's all-day behavior. Second-class maid, "From today onwards, you will fill the vacancy of Green Pearl, and change your name to Orange Autumn."
"The slave maid thanked the princess for giving her name." Although Cheng Qiu was delighted, the rules when she stepped forward to salute were not disordered at all. After she bowed to Hua Xiwan, she gave Bai Xia and the other three a blessing ceremony, and silently retreated. to the side.
Hua Xiwan, no matter what the other of them would think, she immediately leaned on the soft couch and closed her eyes to rest.
"Bah! A rotten hoof without eyes, how can you stay in this precious house, get out of the way, don't stain our big guy's eyes," a rough mammy pointed at the branches and kept on The croaking crow yelled, and there were two old ladies beside her applauding.
Lu Zhu was carrying her luggage, and listening to these words of scolding and scolding Huai, she felt wronged and sad. She looked up at the crows that were screeching and screaming on the branch, and her heart became inexplicably sad.
She has served her master for so many years, even if there is no credit, she has worked hard, but now she has ended up like this. Such a cold-hearted and ruthless woman, wouldn't it hurt the prince of the county to stay by the side of the prince
Suddenly, she saw a group of people appearing in the corridor in the distance. The man walking in front was dressed in white, with a feather fan and jade crown. Suddenly, a courage that she had never had before suddenly surged in her heart, and she ran in that direction.
"The king..."
Before she could say anything, someone covered her mouth, and then another person pressed her to the ground, smelling the earthy smell coming into her nose, she wanted to look back in embarrassment to see who dared to catch her. As a result, someone pushed his face to the ground, and the dirt got into his nose and mouth.
"A shameless and cheap maid, who dares to run around and scream in the palace of the county prince, does not look in the mirror to see what kind of virtues she is, and dares to think of her indifferent thoughts, and treats herself as the servant girl beside the princess of the county. Is it?" A sturdy old woman pulled up her hair and slapped her face twice, "We don't have such shameless people in our county palace, get out!"
A few old ladies who were watching the lively heard the words and stepped forward and pushed the green beads out, not knowing whether it was intentional or not, the tightly tied package was torn apart, and the clothes, jewelry and silver inside were scattered on the floor. , Luzhu wanted to pick it up, but was trampled on by a few women, and dragged away by one of the women.
"If you betrayed your master, you still want to take the gift from your master. We rude old women have never read or read, but we also know what loyalty is," the old woman who was pulling her out scolded, "How dare you do that. , it's just because of the gentle temperament of the princess!"
Lu Zhu was stunned for a moment, and she didn't recover until she was pushed out of the small gate by the old ladies. She lost her temper at the master, is it really because the master treats them on weekdays
The small door slammed shut in front of her. She was in a state of embarrassment, and she had long lost the scenery she had when she was serving by the princess's side. Seeing the pedestrians coming and going in the alley, she suddenly felt fear and regret. The world is so big, What should she do
Not long after, a mule cart passed by, and no one was seen at the small gate in the backyard.
"Your Majesty, the matter has been done." The middle-aged man in a blue robe bowed and stood in front of Yan Jinqiu, "The body has been cleaned up."
"Well," Yan Jinqiu looked at the ordinary-looking middle-aged man expressionlessly: "Make sure that someone sees it when you start?"
"Yes," the middle-aged man buried his head and said, "The witnesses are the purchasing managers of the Shengjun Prince's Mansion and the Xu Prince's Mansion, and someone has already reported to the government."
Yan Jinqiu nodded silently, waved people to step back, and then turned to look at Mu Tong who was standing in the corner: "There is no need to hide this matter from the princess, but it will be brought up after the case is over."
Mu Tong was puzzled at first, and then he understood the intention of the prince. If the matter just broke out, the prince of the county will know, doesn't it mean that the princess of the county suspects that they care about the girl Lvzhu very much? If you tell the princess of the county afterwards, it will only make the princess of the county feel that the prince of the county does not care about Lvzhu, but he respects the princess of the county very much.
Yan Jinqiu is most satisfied with Mutong when he has a brain, doesn't talk much, works steadfastly, and winks. Such a person can use it easily and at ease.
Another major incident happened in Beijing recently, that is, a girl from the Xianjun Wangfu was kicked out of the mansion because of her dirty hands and feet, and was raped and killed by several hooligans. If it weren't for the fact that Xu Wangfu and the stewards of Shengjun Wangfu happened to meet and they were caught and reported to the official, this maid would have lost her life in vain. The final result of the trial was a little shocking, because these hooligans turned out to be servants in the Prince's mansion.
Although the nature of the case of a hooligan who raped and killed a roadside woman was bad, if it wasn't for the prince and the prince of Xian being involved, it would not have caused a lot of trouble in the city.
Everyone in the capital knows that the people in the Prince's Mansion are rampant, but it is a bit too bold to actually rape and kill a woman in the bright sky. I don’t know who suddenly mentioned that the murder of Young Master Zhang was related to the prince, which caused many scholars to write books to crusade the people of the prince’s house. There were even radicals who thought that the prince was cruel and had no ability to be a prince. The future emperor is such a person, wouldn't the people of the world fall into dire days
After all, the Zhang family is a scholarly family. Although it has no real power, it is quite famous and highly respected by scholars. When this incident broke out, students all over the world stood up one after another. If the emperor does not deal with the prince, these scholars will continue to make trouble.
After hearing the radical remarks of these students, Emperor Qilong, who was the head of the Jokhang Dynasty, was so angry that he called the prince into the palace and scolded him angrily, but the matter had gotten to this point, and it was no longer enough to scold the prince.
In the end, the rape and murder case resulted in the beheading of a few servants in the Prince's Mansion. The prince also wrote a letter of self-repentance. On the surface, he was apologizing, but in fact he put all the faults on these servants. The worst thing to do is to be lax.
As for the murder of Mr. Zhang, they finally caught a few gangsters outside the capital who came from nowhere. Afterwards, they explained that it was because they saw Mr. Zhang that he was well-dressed, so they wanted to kidnap people and rob people. The son's words were too impulsive, and they were so angry that they killed the man.
After the result of the case, no matter how many people believed it, after the emperor gave the old man Zhang a second-class marquis, and let a child without a parent be adopted by the Zhang family, the incident gradually calmed down, but the crown prince. The image of the entire Dazhao Dynasty fell sharply in the hearts of the people.
No one thought that the rape and murder of just a small maid would cause such a big conflict, and not many people paid attention to her name. It has even spread to the back, and it has become more and more intense. It has spread to a place far away from the capital, and it has become a prince who raped and killed a servant girl in a certain county palace.
In the Jokhao Dynasty, there were many people in the remote areas of the prince and the prince who did not know, but there was only one person they knew about His Royal Highness. In these rumors, the image of the prince was all fierce, ugly, and bad behavior.
So no matter how the emperor helped the prince to cover up, the prince's reputation was already stinky in the hearts of the common people, and even the emperor became a foolish monarch who couldn't tell right from wrong.
When Lu Zhu's murder spread to the backyard, it was already after several hooligans were identified.
Hua Xiwan listened to Mu Tong's 1510 talk about what happened, and stared at Mu Tong silently for a while before saying, "I see."
Hearing such a light sentence in Mu Tong's ears was a bit unpleasant. I don't know if it was his illusion. The princess seemed to know something, but when she looked up at the princess, she only saw a calm face on her face, as if The missing green beads are just strangers, not her personal maid.
"You step back," Hua Xiwan glanced at Mu Tong, who was still standing in front of her, "Go back and tell the prince, I'm not feeling well these days, please rest somewhere else."
Mu Tong bent down deeply: "Little Retire."
The room gradually became quiet, Hua Xiwan walked to the window and stood still. After a long silence, she said, "Although Luzhu has no father or mother, there is a cousin who works in the royal palace of Shengjun. I heard that she married a steward in the palace. Ask someone to bring thirty taels of silver over there, and ask her to mourn."
Bai Xia was startled, why had she never heard Lu Zhu mention it
Seeing that Bai Xia's face was wrong, Hua Xiwan lowered her eyelids and said, "It was probably after I married into the Prince's Mansion that she recognized this cousin."
Back then, Luzhu's hometown was devastated, her parents were deceased, and she was sold to the Xianjun Wangfu. Because of her beautiful appearance and cleverness, Zai Hua Xiwan came to serve in her yard when she was nearly ten years old, and was later promoted to be a first-class maid. It took six or seven years to come and go, and she never thought it would end like this.
After hearing that Lu Zhu had been in contact with the people from the Shengjun palace after the master married to the palace, Bai Xia couldn't help thinking of many other things, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Shan and Hongying also reacted. They didn't expect that Lvzhu would be so bold and dare to cooperate with other people in the house. If it was discovered by the prince of the county, and thus became suspicious of the master, wouldn't he have pushed the master into the fire pit
"No wonder she's been acting strangely recently, and she even took the initiative to switch the vigil with me." Zishan couldn't help but recall Lu Zhu's behavior these days, and then remembered that she took the initiative to watch the night for her several times, and the more she thought about it, the more The more unpleasant, the anger and the pity for her, if she didn't think about anything else, how could she end up like this, the master would have discovered her behavior long ago, but because of years of affection, she has not been exposed to her, but hoped She was able to repent, but who would have thought that it would make her more courageous, and she even had thoughts that she shouldn't have... The few big maids who originally thought that the master's methods were too cruel all felt that the master was very kind to Luzhu. Lu Zhu spared no expense, but ended up ruining her Qingqing life.
If she is still the first-class girl next to the master, who will disrespect her in the whole house, and who will not give her some face, how can she meet those servants in the prince's house, and even die in such a disgraceful way
