Mrs. Qiao turned pale with fright, and shouted: "Quickly, stop the girl, come here!"
Next, there was a noise of chickens flying and dogs jumping in the Zhilan courtyard.
After the maids and women stopped Qiao Ruolan, she tossed and cried for a long time before falling asleep again, while Mrs. Qiao sat powerlessly on the chair with no trace of blood on her face.
how so
How could her daughter, her sister Lan, become like this...
After an unknown period of time, Mrs. Qiao suddenly remembered the nonsense Qiao Ruolan said just now, and knew that Zhennan Palace could not stay any longer. She immediately issued a ban order, ordered people to tidy up their things in a hurry, and called a carriage to take them back to Qiao's residence.
After everything settled down, the sky was completely dark, and a faint silver moon hung in the night sky.
Qiao Ruolan was carried to her own room, where she was still deeply asleep.
Mrs. Qiao was exhausted physically and mentally. She rubbed the center of her brows, called Madam Hu, and asked, "What's going on in the mansion these two days?"
"Everything is fine in the mansion." Madam Hu carefully observed her words and said, "It's just..."
"Just what?" Mrs. Qiao frowned unhappily, and said, "Don't hesitate, finish the sentence in one breath."
Nanny Hu lowered her head, murmured twice in an inaudible voice, finally gritted her teeth and said, "Ma'am, yesterday the master accompanied Aunt Yu to Jinyu Pavilion to make jewelry. When I came back, I heard many people There was a lot of discussion, our eldest girl followed General Tang to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion yesterday, and the two had an intimate meeting, chatting in front of the gate of the Palace, and said, also said that in order to marry into the Tang Mansion, our eldest girl was in the middle of the street. Pretending to be crazy and acting stupid, I have to force General Tang to divorce his messy wife... "
Mrs. Qiao's anger surged up from the bottom of her heart, her face turned blue, she gritted her teeth and said, "You rascals! A bunch of rascals! It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable!"
Her daughter is flawless, how can she let these troublemakers point and slander her at will!
Hu Nanny lowered her head even lower, she took a peek at Mrs. Qiao's face, and said falteringly: "Yesterday, after the master came back to the mansion yesterday, he came to the main courtyard. Seeing that the wife was not there, he ordered the servant to pass the message. To the madam, let the madam discipline the eldest girl well, don’t always… Always make troubles outside, embarrassing him. Also said, also said... If the madam can’t manage the eldest girl well, send her back to Shu Go to the Maid's Court."
"boom!"
A blue and white porcelain teacup was thrown out violently by Mrs. Qiao, and fell to the ground, breaking into several pieces. The scalding hot tea splashed out along with the porcelain pieces, and splashed on Nanny Hu's face. She dared not even say a word.
"Qiao Xingyao!" Mrs. Qiao was so angry that her veins burst out and her whole body trembled slightly, "It must be that vixen who is sowing discord. Qiao Guangyao dared to treat our mother and daughter like this because of that vixen. I will never let him go! And that vixen A group of troublemakers... No, I will go to my brother now and let him punish those troublemakers!"
Mrs. Qiao stood up abruptly, perhaps because she was out of breath, she suddenly felt a tight pain in her chest, then her eyes went dark, and she collapsed back limply.
"Ma'am, ma'am!"
"Come here!"
"Hurry up, call the doctor!"
There was chaos in Qiao's residence.
…
The news of Mrs. Qiao bringing her daughter back home reached Nangong Yue's ears immediately.
When she heard Qiao Ruolan's nonsense when she was crazy, Nangong Yue's face suddenly sank, and before she could give her orders, Que'er said: "Shizi Concubine, slaves have already decided to punish those servants who whispered ten times a day. Daban, and strictly prohibit private discussion of this matter."
Nangong Yue nodded, and added: "The order of this concubine is passed on. The palace does not need to talk about servants. If I hear who is talking about this matter in the future, I don't care who spreads it. Zhilan All the people in the courtyard filled their bowls with hot oil and sold them! This concubine has always done what she says. If you don’t want to be separated from your family, everyone should be more honest.”
The magpie should be on his knees.
This was caused by Qiao Ruolan herself, Nangong Yue didn't care what happened to her, but if the reputation of Guan Yubai and Fu Yunhe were affected by Qiao Ruolan's nonsense, then she must not be tolerated!
Housekeeper Nangong Yue has always been strict, and coupled with the fact that Que'er tried to make an example of others earlier, the maids and women serving in Zhilan Courtyard were trembling, and no one dared to say anything more.
The mansion finally calmed down,
But Nangong Yue in Zhennan Prince's Mansion can control it, who knows if Qiao Ruolan will continue to go crazy after returning to Qiao's Mansion...
Nangong Yue thought for a moment, then asked, "Has the prince returned home?"
Magpie responded, "I've already returned home."
Nangong Yue got up and straightened her clothes, and said, "Go to the study outside."
After the notification, Ji Jiao led Nangong Yue into Zhennan King's study room. After the ceremony, Nangong Yue said straight to the point: "Father, my daughter-in-law is here today to report something important."
King Zhennan frowned and asked, "But what's wrong with the medicine given to the army?"
"No." Nangong Yue shook her head and said, "Cousin Lan is talking nonsense in the Zhilan Courtyard, and has involved Marquis An Yi and Young Master Fu. My daughter-in-law thinks this is inappropriate, and she still wants the father to decide."
She told everything about the Zhilan Courtyard, without any concealment or embellishment, just plain and straightforward, it was enough to make King Zhennan's face darker and darker, and he slapped heavily on the desk.
"Father, the third son of Fu has a good relationship with the son, and he is also your junior. As long as you explain it clearly to him, you probably won't be too fussy, but Marquis An Yi is different..." Nangong Yue hesitated to speak, "On the contrary This happened again... What if Cousin Lan's crazy words reach An Yihou's ears... Even, if the emperor finds out, he may think that you are trying to use Cousin Lan to win An Yi over... Hou..."
Nangong Yue didn't continue to talk, but stood with lowered eyebrows, letting King Zhennan to imagine.
"How can this happen? It's simply unreasonable!" King Zhennan was shocked and angry, of course he understood what Nangong Yue was implying.
Qiao Ruolan's crazy words can at least make him a wise man for the rest of his life, and even discredit the Zhennan Palace, or at worst, once they reach the emperor's ears, he will not be able to escape the charge of deliberately wooing Marquis An Yi. The reason why Marquis An Yi came to Southern Border, the emperor and he both knew very well, so eager to use his niece to win Marquis Anyi, King Zhennan wanted to say that he had no second thoughts, but even he could hardly believe his words.
This Qiao Ruolan!
Zhennan Wang really wished that she could not find her after she got lost!
"Father." Nangong Yue continued, "Up and down the palace, those servants dare not spread words indiscriminately, but my aunt and cousin Lan have already returned to Qiao's mansion. If cousin Lan is talking nonsense like just now in Qiao's mansion, daughter-in-law It’s really beyond the reach of the whip. I have to come to trouble my father and you to come forward.”
King Zhennan nodded irritably, "Concubine Shizi, you are right. Jugeng, send someone to Qiao's mansion, and let Mrs. Qiao take care of her daughter and the servants in the mansion."
Kikyo was about to promise, but King Zhennan raised his hand again, as if he felt that it was not safe enough.
If the elder sister really had the means to manage the family well, she wouldn't have allowed Qiao Ruolan to mess around to such an extent... Sigh, it's still quiet in her own palace.
"Forget it." Zhennan Wang said irritably, "You should go and talk to Mrs. Qiao, and when Sister Lan gets better, send her to Mingqing Temple."
"Father." Nangong Yue said at this moment, "My daughter-in-law thinks something is wrong..."
Seeing King Zhennan looking over, Nangong Yue showed a wry smile at the right time, "If Cousin Lan escapes from the Ming and Qing Temple again, Mrs. Qiao will have to come and make trouble with you, Father. Worrying about these trivial things in the house is really too depressing."
Xiao Yi's unfilial son always likes to fight against him, and Xiao Luan is a worthless person. He has raised two sons, but in the end he is not as filial as his daughter-in-law. The King of Zhennan felt emotional for a while, and said: "... Shi Zifei, what do you think should be done about this matter?"
Nangong Yue said calmly: "My daughter-in-law thinks it's better to find a marriage for Cousin Lan."
Her expression was calm and composed, as if what she was talking about was just a matter of course, and in fact, it was indeed a matter of course.
The male college should be married, the female college should be married, Qiao Ruolan is already old enough, because Mrs. Qiao picked things up, and the marriage has not yet been settled, so Qiao Ruolan is so bold that Xiao thinks of An Yihou...
As long as Qiao Ruolan settles the marriage quickly, it doesn't matter even if those crazy words reach the emperor's ears.
