No matter what, before New Year's Eve, the Huang family's affairs were finally settled.
This was different from the time with Wei An, because the Third Prince himself valued him, so there was no such thing as compatibility of horoscopes. The Left Vice Minister of Rites personally led people to the Huang family, and the matter was settled.
Emperor Longqing’s words are golden. Once he says something is settled, it is settled and there will be no changes.
The Chu princess was so angry that veins on her forehead were throbbing. Even her expression was no longer kind and gentle. She was so anxious that she said, "How dare they..."
Ding Xiang bit her lip and told Madam Huang and Master Huang the attitudes. She shook her head helplessly and said, "Master and Madam won't even let me see the Second Miss..."
Princess Chu couldn't help but sneer, and spat with a cold look: "Of course they dare not, who wants to die for no reason... When the waiter sees you, he will definitely know what I mean. He will not wait to die in vain, and will definitely beg you. Then their deeds will be exposed..."
As she spoke, she could no longer hold back her anger, and she reached out her hand and pushed everything on the table to the ground.
Dingxiang stood by and didn't dare to say a word of advice.
Or it was Nanny Yuan who relied on her status as an old servant of Princess Chu, and she slowly came up and said softly: "Don't be angry... Now that they are not allowed to do it, it's done. Let's think of a way first..."
Dingxiang also lowered her head and dared not speak.
The Princess of Chu certainly knew what they meant. After the King of Chu got furious, he was still discussing matters with his staff outside...
She just felt a headache, so she put her hand on her temple and waved her other hand towards Nanny Yuan: "Let me be quiet for a while..."
Her family suddenly did this, and she was caught off guard. Before, the King of Chu had warned her to pay special attention to her family, but now... She knew her husband's temper best, and now it had become like this...
The wind was blowing hard, the windows were crackling, and Princess Chu felt even colder in her heart.
But when the King of Chu came in, she felt really chilled to the bone and stomped her head unconsciously.
The King of Chu never showed his emotions. Even though he was extremely angry this time, his face remained calm. He glanced at the Princess of Chu and smiled with an ambiguous tone: "I used to think that you also had your merits..."
Back then, the Huang family was able to marry their daughter into the royal palace, so of course things weren't as bad as they are now.
After all, their family has been passed down poetry and literature, and they had a good reputation in the past, so they had to respect themselves.
But in just less than twenty years, the Huang family had fallen to this point. His brother-in-law had not learned anything from their ancestors, and had only learned petty thefts.
Even selling his daughter could be done so neatly and efficiently...
The King of Chu looked solemn: "That's good, I'm famous now..."
It's not just famous. He received news that the censors are now criticizing him and think he is a villain.
Of course, I can't talk about specific examples. After all, on the surface, Emperor Longqing could say that the Huang family was loyal to the emperor, but they always found ways to make things difficult for him.
He sat there coldly for a while, waiting for a long time but there was no reply from the Princess of Chu, but he didn't care and suddenly laughed.
Princess Chu was startled.
Nanny Yuan and Ding Xiang had never seen the King of Chu in this state before. They were so frightened that they kept silent and held their breath.
It was still the Princess of Chu who knelt before the King of Chu, crying and biting her lip.
As soon as she knelt, the close servants in the room also knelt one after another.
"What's the use of kneeling now?" The King of Chu put his hands on his knees and spoke in a very cold voice. After a moment, he stood up, stared at her, turned around and left.
The Princess of Chu was terribly frightened.
Now that things were so bad, the King of Chu inexplicably just said a few meaningless words to her and then left. She was a little confused and hurried to chase him.
She knew the King of Chu's temper, but she had never seen him like this. She was really a little panicked.
But in the end she couldn't even get out of the yard.
The King of Chu directly sent all the remaining guards in the palace to her yard.
The Princess of Chu's blood froze in an instant, and she stood under the eaves in a daze for a long time.
She didn't know why things had suddenly turned out like this, and she didn't know why the King of Chu had put her under house arrest. She was so frightened that she quickly ordered Nanny Yuan in a stern voice: "Go... Go and invite the prince!"
Chu Jingrui has always been the favorite of King Chu, and the King of Chu will definitely listen to what he says.
But Nanny Yuan couldn't go out either. The Princess of Chu leaned her head on the pillow and didn't close her eyes the whole night.
It was so cold outside that people's feet were numb, but the house was warm as spring. Chu Jingrui looked at the King of Chu who came in and frowned slightly: "It has nothing to do with my mother, unless she is crazy..."
The King of Chu knew this, of course. He sighed and smiled at his son: "But I have already reminded your mother before."
Chu Jingrui said no more.
If you do something wrong, you will always have to pay the price.
After all, the Huang family is the Princess Chu's maiden family, and she should have been in full control of the place. If there was any suspected disturbance, the Princess Chu should have known about it in advance.
But she happened to make a mistake regarding her mother's family matters.
It was obviously meaningless to pursue responsibility after something happened. Chu Jingrui said coldly to his father: "Father, it's useless to say these things. Think of a way to deal with it."
The sky gradually darkened, and lights were lit everywhere in the Dingbei Marquis Mansion in the distance.
Although the matter has been resolved, it is not over yet, and the retribution of the King of Chu is still to come.
But even so, Mrs. Wei couldn't be happy.
She glanced at Wei An who was standing in front of the window and called her softly. When she saw that she had turned her head away, she asked, "What are you thinking about? Why are you so absorbed in it?"
Aunt Hua also joined in the fun.
Today is a big day.
In the evening, Master Wei Wu and his group had already arrived at the dock. Now, calculating the time, they were almost home.
Even the Prince of Zhennan's Palace received a letter.
Old Mrs. Wei was a little worried about Wei An.
Wei An was in a trance.
In her heart, there was a night as dark as today, so cold that it made people shiver.
That was a wound in her heart that would never heal.
The young girl lay on the bed. The room was so cold that it was hard to breathe and so quiet that she could hear her own breathing. Everything was in stark contrast to the world outside the door.
The east wind blows thousands of flowers into bloom at night, and smiles and fragrance fade away.
She had a low fever and she got up in a daze and stood in front of the window, watching the grand fireworks outside and her mother's smile. Strangely, she felt no emotion at all.
It's like being dead.
And now, the mother who once gave her another life and once sent her to hell is finally coming back.
