Zhennan Wang was so angry that he smoked, pointed at Xiao Yi's nose and cursed: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xiao Fang blushed with anger, thinking: Is Xiao Yi implying that he is jealous
Xiao Yi intentionally misunderstood the meaning of Zhennan King, and said innocently: "Father, you come to your son with the appearance of yelling and beating and killing, isn't it because of that Tao'er? Since you like that Tao'er, take it back That's it."
King Zhennan's eyes turned red with anger, and the whip in his hand was reflexively thrown at Xiao Yi again.
For a moment, I saw Xiao Yi scurrying around in the yard, hiding in a panic, with blood oozing from his body, which was shocking to watch.
I don't know, I thought he was whipped by King Zhennan, which made him so miserable. Only Xiao Yi knew in his heart that he was just wounded by the whip, and the wound was opened again. As for the damage to the clothes, it was just a show, deliberately letting the father's whip cut the clothes.
Zhennan Wang was panting and sweating profusely after chasing after Xiao Yi.
Xiao Fang watched from the side, feeling really comfortable all over, the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching. But she hadn't been complacent for a long time, and she was astonished, and saw Zhennan Wang's whip suddenly swung towards her head for some reason.
"Ah--" Xiao Fang's face paled with fright, and she screamed, completely losing her usual noble and elegant demeanor.
King Zhennan also realized that the momentum was wrong... Seeing that the whip was about to hit Xiao Fang's face, it was too late to take it back, so he could only grit his teeth and use force to change the direction of the whip. But even so, the whip still narrowly brushed Xiaofang's right face, and then landed heavily on her right shoulder, causing her feet to go limp in pain, and she fell down.
The bright eyes on the side quickly supported her, and shouted in panic: "Wangfei, Wangfei..."
I saw that Xiao Fang's complexion was pale, and his body was trembling, as if he was about to faint at any moment.
The maids and women suddenly became a mess.
"Quick, hurry up and ask the doctor." Zhennan Wang threw down the whip in his hand, ran up to Xiao Fang anxiously, hugged her, his eyes were full of guilt and distress, and sighed, "You Said you... Well, what kind of whip do you take for that rebellious son?"
Hearing this, Xiao Fang was so angry that she rolled her eyes and passed out. As evidenced by the sky, she never thought of defending Xiao Yi from the whip!
The King of Zhennan picked up Xiao Fang, glared at Xiao Yi and said: "Nizi, this time your mother and concubine are pleading for you, let me forgive you for now, and if you do it again next time, you will not be forgiven." Fang rushed out of the courtyard gate, and a group of servants hurriedly followed. At first glance, it was really a huge momentum.
A trace of sarcasm flashed in Xiao Yi's eyes.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Zhu Zi walked over worriedly, with self-blame in his eyes, "If I had known this would happen, the servant would not have sold that peach."
"It has nothing to do with you." Xiao Yi said indifferently and nonchalantly, "It's my intention to sell Tao'er." Anyway, even if they don't sell Tao'er, they will find other reasons to annoy themselves.
"Your Majesty, let's go back to the room first, the wound on your body should be treated with medicine."
Xiao Yi nodded, entered the room with Zhuzi, and took out two small porcelain bottles from the bedside cabinet with his own hands, showing a gentle look on his face.
Of course Zhuzi noticed it, and couldn't help feeling a little curious.
…
On the other side, when the comatose Xiao Fang woke up, he only felt twitching on his face and shoulders, and subconsciously covered his face with his hands.
The maidservant standing by the side said quickly with bright eyes: "Princess, the imperial doctor said that the wound should not be touched."
Xiao Fang's hand froze, and he retracted abruptly. The scene before coma flooded into his mind like a tide, and he said in a panic, "Quick, help me up!" Xiao Fang struggled to get up However, her right shoulder was injured, but she couldn't use her strength.
Ming Mou cleverly helped her up, and the other maid, Ming Jing, took a soft pillow and put it behind Xiao Fang's, so that she could lean on it more comfortably.
"Bring the bronze mirror." When Xiao Fang thought of the whip just now, she felt fear, lest her face would be disfigured, this was more unbearable than the injury to her right shoulder!
Ming Mou hurriedly fetched the bronze mirror from the dressing table, while Ming Jing comforted her in a good voice: "Princess, don't worry, your face is not broken, it's just a red mark, the imperial doctor has already seen it, and said it will be fine soon. .Just let me eat less spicy food these days.”
Xiao Fang took a look in the mirror and found that it was exactly as Ming Jing said, she was half relieved, but looking at the faint red marks, she still felt that the distance was too great, and she threw the bronze mirror aside in annoyance.
At this moment, a respectful report came from outside: "The prince is here!"
As the bead curtain was raised, King Zhennan strode in.
"Greetings to the prince!"
There was a sound of greetings neatly in the room, and the maids did not dare to get up.
"My lord..." Xiao Fang struggled to get out of bed, but was held down by Zhennan Wang, and said, "You are not in good health, so there is no need to be polite, just stay on the bed and rest."
"Thank you, my lord." Xiao Fang bowed on the bed, but the wound was pulled, and his face turned pale.
When King Zhennan saw this, he felt guilty and said, "Hey, it's all my fault that I hurt the princess by mistake."
Xiao Fang immediately said: "It's no wonder the prince." That pitiful appearance made Zhennan Wang even more distressed.
King Zhennan sighed, and said: "You don't want to be like this in the future, that Nizi has rough skin and thick flesh, you don't need you to help him block the whip."
Xiao Fang opened his mouth to refute, but couldn't say a word. What else could she say? Could it be that she never thought of helping Xiao Yi get whipped, or did she wish Xiao Yi could get whipped a little more
If he said these words, the virtuous reputation he had cultivated for many years would be over.
For a while, Xiao Fang felt as if there was a blood stasis stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out, and couldn't swallow it, and he was indescribably suffocated and uncomfortable!
And King Zhennan was still chattering there... When he thought he had said enough, he got up and left.
As soon as King Zhennan left, Xiao Fang's face was full of coldness and resentment.
She saw the situation very clearly at that time, it was clear that the prince himself was red-eyed and lost his hand, but he insisted on saying something that she blocked the whip for Xiao Yi and made excuses for his own mistakes, which is really irresponsible man!
But since King Zhennan said so, then she will suffer, otherwise, wouldn't her injury be in vain!
So on the second day, a rumor about the Zhennan Palace quietly spread in the capital:
It is said that Xiao Yi, the eldest son of Zhennan Prince's Mansion, failed to force the maidservant, and instead sold the maidservant to a kiln.
It is said that the king of Zhennan beat his son angrily, and the concubine Xiaofang pleaded for mercy and blocked the whip, and was seriously injured.
Everyone in the world said: The eldest son Xiao Yi does things absurdly, Xiao Fang is a virtuous family, and treats the eldest son like a parent!
**◆**
The story was divided into two parts. After Nangong Yue returned to the mansion, she went to Rong'an Hall first as usual.
Walking into the hall through the opened bead curtain, Nangong Yue bowed her knees respectfully to Mrs. Su and said, "Greetings to grandma."
Su smiled and said lovingly: "I'm back, since you and Miss Jiang share the same interests, you can invite her to the house as a guest in the future. Although grandma is old, she is by no means such a pedantic person."
"Yes, my granddaughter knows." Nangong Yue respectfully responded, and then took out the box of silk flowers presented by Jiang Yixi, "Sister Xi made this herself... She said that the sisters in the house would wear it and play with it."
"Miss Jiang made it by herself." Su smiled, "You are really a girl with ingenuity and ingenuity. After a while, grandma will call your sisters over and ask them to choose by themselves."
"Yes." Nangong Yue offered another box of pastries, "This is what my granddaughter bought specially when she passed Heyue Zhai on the way back. I don't know if it suits grandma's taste."
This pastry was bought by the coachman when I was talking with Xiao Yi before. I bought two boxes in total, one for Su Shi and the other for myself, thinking of giving it to my mother and elder brother later.
When Su heard that he bought it for himself, his smile deepened, and he said lovingly: "It's rare that you are so filial, and grandma is so happy."
"There is one more thing, granddaughter..." Nangong Yue seemed hesitant to speak, but still took a small delicate and luxurious sandalwood box from Yimei, and presented it with her own hands, "This is Duke En Guo. It was given by Madam and Shizi Madam, but the granddaughter thinks it is too precious." This thing was actually given by the empress, but the empress's departure from the palace is not allowed to be announced to the outside world, so Nangong Yue had no choice but to say this to Su Shi .
Nangong Yue opened it on the carriage and saw that there were many built-in things inside.
Nangong Yue thought about it, and decided that it's best to pass the bright road in front of Su Shi, otherwise it's not easy to take it out and wear it casually. However, Nangong Yue's purpose is not just that, her main purpose is to let Su family understand that it is not just because of Miss Jiang's relationship that she can make friends with Miss Jiang from En Guogong's mansion.
Nanny Wang took the box, opened it and presented it to Mrs. Su. Seeing this, even Mrs. Su's heart was shocked.
The things in the small box are all treasures, indeed very precious, especially those few built-in items, which are precious things that cannot be bought with money.
Su's heart was full of doubts. Although the Enguo Mansion was rich, it wouldn't be possible to give so many treasures to Sister Yue casually, right? Unless they had other plans, or...
Or was it someone else who gave it to sister Yue through the hands of Duke Enguo's mansion
Thinking of this, Su's gaze narrowed, and the color of his eyes became deeper and deeper.
The one who can instruct Duke Enguo to move must be that one!
Thinking of this level, the Su family couldn't help but be ecstatic. She never thought that the nobleman would love Sister Yue so much, would reward her in private, and let the people of En Guogong's mansion pass it on for her...
Su's heart thumped, and it took a long time to calm down. He waved his hand and pretended to be indifferent: "Since I sent you off, you can keep it well."
"Yes, grandma." Nangong Yue bent down obediently and saluted.
Mrs. Su nodded, and kindly asked someone to take out a sapphire bracelet decorated with auspicious clouds from the room, and personally put it on for her, and said lovingly: "This bracelet will be buried here, it is just suitable for you young little ones. Girl, take it!"
"Thank you grandma." Nangong Yue put it on her hand with a happy face, said a few words with Su Shi, and then left.
