The room became quiet.
Yueniang said hesitantly: "Miss, if we keep Dingxiang, we need to be more careful. After all, we are not someone who knows everything."
Chunni nodded repeatedly, "Yueniang is right."
Qingguan thought for a moment and said, "Go to the princess to get her bond back."
Yueniang asked in confusion: "Miss, are you planning to really subdue her?"
Qing Wan frowned, "Whether she will surrender or not depends on what she does. I just put the opportunity in front of her."
Zhao Huayang missed a hit. I wonder if he had a back-up move? If so, leaving lilac on is an eyeliner. Why wouldn't she do it if she could kill two birds with one stone
As for the deed of betrayal, it was just a smoke bomb thrown at Zhao Huayang.
Yueniang and Chunni looked at each other, half understanding.
Qingwan didn't explain, he just said: "Ye Qing, Ye Zi knows some kung fu. When nothing happens, you guys can follow and learn from me. You don't care about anything, just that you can protect yourself when you encounter danger."
She was a little scared. These loyal servants were following her, which was extremely risky. If she didn't do it, her life would be in danger. She had to take precautions.
Yueniang and Chunni understood the young lady's hard work and nodded.
Seeing this, Qingguan changed the topic and said, "What changes have happened in Gu Mansion this month when I was away?"
Yueniang gathered her thoughts and stepped forward to give an overview of what happened in the house this month.
After hearing this, Qingguan leaned on the brocade cushion, squinted her eyes, and smiled, "I'm back, my aunt and son always have to go there, and by the way, I can get Ding Xiang's deed of prostitution."
Yueniang gritted her teeth and said, "Miss..."
Qingguan patted her hand and signaled her to rest assured.
Zhao Huayang had not recovered from the shock in Shou'antang. When he was leaning on the couch in a daze, he suddenly heard the servant reply, "Second Grandma, Miss Six is here." She was so surprised that she stood upright from the couch. sit up.
While talking, Qingguan was surrounded by people coming in.
Zhao Huayang adjusted his headgear and said gently: "My son, just rest well in your room, why bother making this trip again."
Qingguan respectfully asked me, sat down at the bottom, and said, "There is something I want to ask my mother to do."
As soon as Zhao Huayang saw her face, he felt upset, but he smiled and said: "Just say it."
Qingguan smiled and said: "Please mother give me Dingxiang's deed of prostitution."
"What?"
Zhao Huayang suddenly sat up and said sternly: "What are you doing with the prostitution contract? There is no such rule in the house."
Qingguan's lips twitched: "My ancestors came here to explain that the maid's bond of sale must be in the master's hand. Otherwise, these maids will not listen to your orders."
Zhao Huayang sneered: "What our ancestors said may not always be right."
"My daughter said the same thing. But my ancestors said, don't guard against gentlemen, guard against villains, don't guard against good people, guard against evil people. If you really can't guard against them, then send them away."
Qingguan looked at the face of the princess and suddenly added: "The ancestor also said that he was a little confused and his methods seemed to be very clever, but in reality they were nothing more than that. If you force a maid to death, it would be a serious matter. How can it be so? Cheap thing.”
Every sentence has a meaning, and the words hide a knife. Zhao Huayang clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves and said through gritted teeth, "I don't understand what my ancestor said."
"My daughter can't understand either. But my ancestors said that there is always a reason for reasoning in everything. If the Five Cities Military and Horse Division cannot explain it, then go to Shuntian Mansion; if Shuntian Mansion cannot explain it, go to the Ministry of Punishment; if the Ministry of Punishment can explain it, If it doesn’t work, then we can only go to the emperor.”
Qing Guan saw Zhao Huayang's pink face turn from white to black, and added in confusion: "Mother, my daughter really doesn't understand, she is just a dead maid, why do our ancestors hold on to her?"
Zhao Huayang felt like he had a fly in his mouth. He couldn't spit it out or swallow it. He wished he could slap this lunatic to death right now.
She gouged out Qing Guan, gritted her teeth and said, "Come here, give Ding Xiang's deed of prostitution to Miss Six, and send Miss Six back to her room."
Nanny Tan hurriedly entered the back room and found Ding Xiang's contract of sale from the cage.
Qingguan took it, stuffed it into his sleeve, stood up with a smile, and said Yingying Yifu: "Mother, the ancestors said that the reason for this meeting has reached the Ministry of Punishment, and mother needs to take care of herself."
Zhao Huayang's vision went dark and he almost fell down.
You little bitch, you just fell in love with the Jiang family, and your tail is raised to the sky. Even my mother is threatening and teasing you. If I don't show you how awesome you are, who do you really think you are
Grandma Tan waited for Miss Six to leave, stepped forward to support the princess, and said with a fierce look: "Princess, that lunatic dares to blatantly threaten the princess. Could it be that the Jiang Mansion already knows about it?"
Hua Yang calmed down when she said this.
"So what if I know, I'm just listening to the rumors from outside. If there was real evidence, based on the temper of our ancestors, we would have waited until now, eight hundred years ago to come and cause trouble."
Nanny Tan rolled her eyes a few times and said, "Princess, it's better to be careful in everything. The Criminal Department asked the old princess to inquire about it. If there is something, it's better to stop it in advance."
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.
When Zhao Huayang thought it made sense, he said, "You can go for a run in the afternoon and tell the old princess everything."
"Yes, Princess."
Huayang felt angry again, with a cold light in his eyes.
"It's a shame that the maid's deed of betrayal was taken away. Otherwise..."
Qingguan returned to the room, called Dingxiang alone, and showed her the deed of sale.
When Ding Xiang saw the deed of betrayal, she was so shocked that she fell to the ground and burst into tears.
Honghua died because the prostitution contract was in the hands of the princess and she had to work for the princess.
Ding Xiang burst into tears and said, "Thank you, miss. I can't even repay miss's great kindness even if I work like a cow or a horse."
"Do your job well. If you don't treat me badly, I will never treat you badly."
Qingguan handed the deed of sale to Yueniang and waved Dingxiang out, "Yue Niang, I'll rest for a while. You don't need to ask me for lunch."
"Miss..." Yueniang was startled.
"Go ahead, I don't have much appetite."
Qingguan waved his hands, leaned down on the couch, and closed his eyes.
Yueniang thought for a while and whispered: "Miss, have a good rest. Everything in the mansion is ready, just waiting for miss to pass. I will call you when I get there."
Qingguan didn't open his eyes, just nodded.
There was no one in the room, Qingguan felt sleepy and was about to fall asleep, but Yueniang left and came back.
"Miss, the caretaker in the backyard handed me a letter."
"Whose?" The voice was lazy.
Yueniang's face looked troubled, she swallowed her saliva and said, "Miss Hui, it was... sent by Prince Yin."
It's him!
Qingguan opened her eyes suddenly, bit her lip, and said, "Bring it to me and see."
Yueniang hurriedly handed over the letter, not daring to raise her head to read it. She just stared at the lady's expression and whispered: "Miss, what did the letter say?"
This shameless person!
Qingguan didn't answer, closed her eyes, and gritted her teeth, actually saying that she wanted to elope with her.
How dare you elope.
Her chest rose and fell twice. When she opened her eyes again, her face calmed down. Qingguan sneered and said, "Yue Niang, I'll take care of you with pen and ink."
Seeing that the young lady was angry, Yueniang didn't dare to delay. She prepared some pen and ink and took the opportunity to take a look at the letter, her face turned red.
Qingguan stood in front of the table, holding the pen for a long time before writing two words on the paper: whimsical. !
"Send this letter out of the house yourself."
Yueniang saw these two words and guessed something about them. She nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, Miss."
Qingguan was still upset and said: "Speak more harshly and make sure that he gives up this intention."
"Don't worry, miss, I'll spare you the trouble."
Yueniang opened the curtain and went out. Qingguan was lying on the bamboo couch, completely sleepy.
Yueniang took out two taels of silver from her arms and handed it to the fat lady who was guarding the door. The fat lady pointed to the carriage at the other end of the street with a smile.
"Go quickly, I'll watch the wind for you."
Yueniang trotted over, saluted Mr. Jinyi under the tree and said, "Prince Yin, my lady gave this to you."
Yin Lifeng's face was filled with joy. When he took a look at the letter, his smile was shattered into pieces.
"Prince Yin, my young lady has said that she is engaged, please Prince Yin not to harass her again. She, a noble lady, cannot do such a thing as elopement."
Yin Lifeng said angrily: "A person like Jiang Laoqi, who eats, drinks, whores and gambles, how can he be worthy of your young lady? I am doing this for her own good."
Yue Niang was furious. Master Qi is not good, so what good thing are you
"My young lady has said that marriage matters are all decided by the parents. Prince Yin is from a young master, so he must understand the truth."
After saying this, Yueniang turned around and left.
Yin Lifeng felt anxious and stretched out his hand to stop him.
Yueniang was not upset, "My young lady also said that if Prince Yin continues to speak nonsense, he will have to go to the palace and have a good discussion."
Yueniang gradually moved away, while Yin Lifeng stood there blankly with a slumped look on his face.
Aoki couldn't bear it. The prince waited for a long time, but in the end he just waited for these few words.
"Your Majesty, this sixth lady doesn't know a good person's heart, and we don't know the same as her. Sun Poison, go back."
Yin Lifeng turned around blankly, his eyes filled with emptiness.
Qingmu sighed secretly. He often saw this look in his eyes six years ago. The difference was that at that time, the only person who could make the prince in a daze was Qian Ziqi.
In late spring and early summer, near noon, the sun is already a bit fierce.
At the main entrance of the Ministry of Industry, several people in official robes have been waiting at the door since 2:00 a.m. By now, their legs have become weak, their head is dizzy, they are sweating like rain, and they want to sit on the floor.
It's really killing me. The King of Shou had promised to come at three o'clock in the morning, but until now there was still no sign of him. You don't keep your word, you dandy prince, how can such a person become the director of the Ministry of Industry
Just as everyone was silently cursing, a black carriage slowly stopped at the main entrance, and it was none other than King Shou.
After a while, King Shou stood upright, shaking a folding fan, looking around, and laughed and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"I'll wait for you to pay homage to the prince."
"No need to be polite, where is your leader?" Zhao Jingyan said in a very light tone.
Mei Yuan, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, stepped forward and said, "Go back to your lord, Lord Shangshu has already been working in the Yamen."
Mei Yuan added an accent to the word "already", euphemistically expressing her dissatisfaction. Even if the other party is a prince, he cannot treat his subordinates like this. Zhao Jingyan looked at him deeply, suddenly stopped, and said with a wicked smile: "Mei Shilang is blaming me for being late."
