Several elder brothers, Fujin, had dispersed from Prince Yu's Mansion. Da Fujin was walking to another place, and they happened to pass by the Fourth Brother's Mansion. Since only Si Fujin was not at the party today, San Fujin was curious and wanted to take a look.
Look. There has long been a rumor between each other. We know that Si Fujin is now devoted to the sake of the children, and has also been rude to the elders in the palace. She is no longer the good daughter-in-law that everyone praised in the past. Now the people who like the most among the elders are Wu Fujin and the others.
Several young people were even more impressed by Bafujin's conduct.
At this moment, the few servants in front of the door could not stop them, and they tried their best to stop them while delivering news to the main courtyard. However, these Fujins were all female dependents. If they really wanted to go forward, no one dared to pull them, so they went all the way to the main courtyard.
In front of the courtyard gate. Just as Sanfujin was about to open his mouth to shout, a petite figure appeared in front of the door, and someone called sweetly: "Auntie, auntie."
It was Nian Tong who came out and wandered to some aunts and uncles. No matter how powerful San Fujin was, he would not be cruel to the child. Nian Tong took her hand, bent down and picked up the child, and asked casually:
"Where's your mother-in-law?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Si Fujin came out with a calm face. San Fujin poked his head behind her, laughing in his heart, and said: "It's rare to see you come out to greet us. Is there something shady in the yard? Our sister-in-law."
There is nothing to hide between us, we will still applaud you if you teach the little goblin a lesson."
Yu Xi said calmly: "Nian Tong ran out on her own. I was afraid that she would cause trouble to my sisters, so I came out to take a look and see where they were blocking you from entering. Since you are here, let's have a meal in the house. Brother Si will go to Jiumen
Now that we have gone to live in the military camp, we can talk freely."
San Fujin sneered: "We can't stop you from teaching others."
Yu Xi said calmly: "I have already taught you a lesson. Could it be that my sister-in-law wants to watch the fun and I bring her here to teach her a lesson again?"
Seeing that Si Fujin didn't deny it and looked nonchalant, San Fujin felt a little bored and couldn't leave immediately after he came, so he hugged Nian Tong in his arms, coaxed the child and walked in without hesitation. Seeing that everything was fine inside
, instead of beating and killing her like I heard first, she turned around and asked her younger siblings narrowly: "How did you teach her a lesson? What mistake did she make?"
Yuxi took Nian Tong down from her arms and said calmly: "It's just some trivial matters at home. I taught her a few words and asked her to go back to the house to reflect. Why does the third sister-in-law care so much?"
Wu Fujin and others hurriedly came over to separate San Fujin, and changed the topic with Fourth Sister-in-law for a few words. They all sat down to drink tea and talk about interesting things in Prince Yu's palace. Because the sky was getting dark, they had to go home before sunset.
Disbanded early.
As soon as the Fujins left, the expression on Yuxi's face immediately dimmed. Although she was so calm when receiving the guests just now, in fact, the anger at the beginning had not dissipated at all. It was only because she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of others that she had Song Gege taken away. At this moment
Without the outsiders, Qinglian was about to ask Fujin what he wanted for dinner, but her master told her: "Take someone to send the family law to Song Gege's yard. You can't miss twenty sticks, and you still owe seventeen."
Isn’t it a staff?”
It turned out that he had just pressed down on Mrs. Song to beat her, but after a few beatings, someone outside said that the Fujins had arrived. Yuxi immediately took Mrs. Song down who was crying like a ghost. At this moment, everyone thought that the matter should be over, but they didn't expect to keep fighting.
The kind-hearted Fujin was so serious, and his cold expression on his face when he ordered others to beat Song Gege really frightened Qinglian. As expected, people with bad tempers can get to the bottom of things, while people who are usually quiet and gentle
, I didn’t know how fierce she was.
Although Song Gege was not convinced, she was beaten unconscious with three sticks. She thought that a guest came to save her life, but who knew that the pain on her buttocks lying in the room had not completely dissipated, and the servant carried the torture instrument bench again.
Rushing to the door of her own room, several stout nuns couldn't help but take her out of the couch. She didn't wake up until she was hit with two sticks, but this time no matter how much she screamed for mercy, the sticks on her body were gone.
Stopped. Each of the remaining seventeen sticks hit her body firmly. When the person who was holding her down released his hand after the beating, Song Gege had fainted and fell limply from the bench.
This incident frightened everyone in the mansion. Since the fourth elder brother left the palace and established the mansion, the first severe punishment was carried out at home, and it was actually the concubine of the fourth elder brother who was beaten. Moreover, Song Gege had been very proud of the past six months, and even the people
They all respected her more than before. Fujin actually rewarded her with twenty hip sticks. How could Song Gege have any face in this house from now on?
In Xiyuan, Li and Fujin heard the news and were so frightened that they hugged Hongxin without saying a word. The maid Qiaozhu fell on her knees and said: "Let's not provoke Fujin in the future. Song Gege went too far today and ran to the military camp by herself."
Still under the banner of Fujin, I feel that the fourth brother didn't show Song Gege's face, probably because of Fujin's face, but he must not know how to complain in his heart, I guess Fujin also thought of this, so he got angry."
Mrs. Li looked cold, looked down at the child in her arms, and murmured softly: "I hope she won't scare Nian Tong."
This matter should not be known to outsiders behind closed doors, but when San Fujin bumped into it, how could he not publicize it everywhere? Although they didn't know that Song Gege had been caned on the buttocks, they didn't know so that they could make up the story and wait for Lan.
When Qi learned the truth from Qinglian, she couldn't help but frown and said, "She is taking all her anger out on the Song family."
Huan Chun said from the side: "Qinglian said that the fourth elder brother has been in Song Gege's house for most of the past six months. Is it possible that Fujin is unhappy because of this kind of thing? Didn't Qinglian say that Fujin took care of the little elder brother wholeheartedly and had no time to wait for him?
Fourth brother."
Lan Qi let out a long sigh: "Let them go. It's my fault that I have always been too protective and made them think that the world should revolve around them. If everything develops to the point where they can't be dealt with, if they still can't wake up,**
It's useless to break your heart. You see, Concubine Rong has left the affairs of the third elder brother's house life and death, but the couple is still having a good time, isn't it? I always put on an open-minded attitude, but I never
Really let go.”
In this way, even Yu Xi calmed down afterwards and was worried that her mother-in-law would ask her why she was fighting and killing at home during the first month of the year. Unexpectedly, nothing happened. However, her husband still lived in the Jiumen Military Camp, but he sent people to come every day.
He asked her if she and the child were okay, but they haven't seen each other since then, and they didn't mention anything about Song Gege being beaten. On the Lantern Festival, a banquet was held in the palace for them to enter the palace. Yuxi felt that it was embarrassing to enter the palace, so she
On the pretext of feeling unwell, Li Fujin was sent to the palace alone.
When Li Fujin entered the palace, he brought Nian Tong and Hong Hao with him. Fujin's elder brother Honghui would naturally not be trusted to be handed over to her. Mrs. Li did not dare to talk nonsense to make excuses for his legitimate son Fujin and the child. Empress De Fei did not ask her
, she simply didn’t mention it. Later, because she was afraid that someone like San Fujin would ask her questions, she followed her mother-in-law throughout the entire party. Although she was steady, she didn’t look grand enough, and she was not as elegant as Ba Fujin.
, now every time she enters the palace, the Queen Mother will ask her to stay with her, and she likes her very much.
But Lan Qi, the mother-in-law, did not interfere in her daughter-in-law's affairs, but she, the daughter-in-law, made the Queen Mother talk about it. The Queen Mother always thought about her. When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked privately after the banquet that day, the Queen Mother couldn't help but say: "
How do you teach your daughter-in-law that I should not take care of it? But they used to say that Dafujin was not good and Sanfujin was not stable. Why are they all going after Yuxi now? You have to think about Yinzhen. Brother Huang’s wife is not
It’s just for giving birth and raising children, don’t they understand?”
Lan Qi listened attentively to the Queen Mother's teachings and promised her that she would find a way to untie her daughter-in-law. However, after leaving the Ningshou Palace, she helplessly sighed to Huan Chun: "Do you think the people in Yuxi will blame me for not caring about them?
In the end, this matter has become mine, right?"
Huan Chun asked worriedly: "Master still doesn't care?"
Lan Qi's heart sank and she nodded: "No matter what, I took too much care in the past. They can't count on me for the rest of their lives."
The master and the servant muttered a few words. When they returned to Yonghe Palace, the house was still covered with Lantern Festival gifts sent by various palaces during the day. Lan Qi sat idle and watched Huanchun looking for someone to clean it up. She accidentally saw a pair of exquisitely embroidered clothes.
Huan Chun showed the armband to her and said, "It was a gift from the noble Lord Jue Chan. Every year, the noble person sends items he has sewn by himself. Although his intention is good, it's just not unusual anymore."
But Lan Qi shook her head, pointed to the satin of the armhole and said: "She shouldn't have this material. I have never given Xing'er such good material. Many people in the palace have never seen it. Sister Rong and I
Usually after just one look, they are sent directly to the Ningshou Palace for the Queen Mother to use, but the Queen Mother is not willing to wear them for anything."
Huan Chun said with a smile: "You don't doubt that the noble man Jue Chan obtained it through shady means? The noble man is in the Yanxi Palace and doesn't even go out very often."
Lan Qi glanced at her: "Why do I miss her so much? But this material is really rare. Where did she come from?"
Huanchun rolled his eyes and said excitedly: "Is it a gift from Concubine Hui?"
Lan Qi shook her head: "If Concubine Hui had contact with Yanxi Palace, you and I would have known about it a long time ago." As she said this, her heart lit up and she said with a smile, "Probably Ba Fu Jin is the filial piety? Although Ba Fu Jin has a rough background, after all,
She is from Prince An's Mansion. Although Prince An's Mansion is not very prosperous now, the camel is bigger than a horse, and the glory in her early years is enough to last her for several lifetimes. Maybe the Prince's Mansion gave it to her, and she passed it on to the noble Jue Chan.
"
Huan Chun said: "If that's true, Ba Fujin is really good at everything. No one in the palace can say anything bad about her now. Even Ba Age's biological mother, E Niang, is so dedicated."
Lan Qi touched the smooth and soft satin and sighed softly: "It's not that I care about a few things, but my heart. Who wouldn't like it if my daughter-in-law behaves like Ba Fujin? It's me who spoiled Yuxi and the others.
Well, if it doesn’t get better in the future, I will have to bear the consequences.”
Whenever there was helplessness in her heart, Lan Qi would want to rely on Xuan Ye, but Xuan Ye was not around at the moment. Fortunately, as soon as the Lantern Festival was over, the emperor would drive back to Luan from Mount Wutai, looking forward to seeing him.
However, four or five days later, news suddenly came from outside the palace that the Holy Emperor was attacked by wild beasts on his way back to Luang. The Emperor's body was not damaged, but the Third Prince who was accompanying him was seriously injured.
