Qin Rushuang invited a total of eight ladies this time, all of whom had felt sorry for Qingzhi or made rude remarks to Prince Huai's Mansion.
Because Aunt Yinghong blocked the way, many people went back to the house to change clothes. By the time everyone arrived, it was already far past the time Qin Rushuang invited.
These ladies usually dress up virtuous and dignified no matter what they look like on the inside. But today, because of the reputation of Nanny Yinghong, a celebrity in the palace, they came and went in a hurry. When they rushed to Qin Rushuang, they were all dressed in the same clothes.
Sweat, some of my hair is still messy.
After everyone stood still, Qin Rushuang didn't say anything. She glanced at these people indifferently, then turned to give instructions to the little maid behind her.
"Go get eight copies of paper and pen."
The eight people were stunned by Qin Rushuang's meaningless words.
It wasn't until the little maid had brought all the paper and pen that Qin Rushuang said calmly: "Everyone of you is an official's wife, and every word and deed represents the highest character of my wife, Mrs. Da Qi. But when we meet today, it's nothing more than that."
"Improper clothing and disheveled hair. This violates the "feminine appearance" of the four virtues."
Qin Rushuang's eyes drifted across the pen and paper placed in front of everyone and said, "Copy it."
Mrs. Zhou couldn't bear it anymore. She had been tortured for a while. Now she sat down and didn't even have a bowl of hot tea, so she was asked to copy the female virtue ring?!
Doesn’t Qin Rushuang regard herself as their elder?!
"I won't copy it! My mother-in-law didn't say anything at home, but when I came to Prince Huai's Mansion, she asked me to copy the precepts of this virtuous woman. Why?"
Qin Rushuang sneered, raised her eyebrows and said, "Why? If you don't copy it today, tomorrow I will have a way to get your husband to give you a letter of divorce because of your bad behavior. If you don't believe it, you can try it!
"
"Why do you care about the affairs of my master's back house? Your hands are very long!"
Before she could finish her words, Qin Rushuang said: "Ms. Zhou, you are the sister of Zhao Xin's first wife. You seduced your brother-in-law and made your sister so angry. You are the superior of the other family, and she is also a step-mother... The reason for your sister's death
Qi Qi, your mother-in-law has long been dissatisfied with you, do you want me to find out how your sister died for you?"
As soon as Qin Rushuang said these words, Zhou immediately shut up.
Qin Rushuang's eyes wandered among the other seven people.
Pointed to one at random.
"You have been married for five years and have two daughters. Your master's concubine has been pregnant three times and she was stillborn three times. Do you want me to ask an imperial doctor to come to the house for you and take a look?
?”
She pointed at one of them again.
"And you. As for you... I heard that you like to eat fruits from Zhao Silang's house in Jiekou the most. Zhao Silang has to go to your house to deliver fresh fruits in person every three days. Your husband is busy with official duties. You and Zhao
Between Shiro..."
"No, no, Princess, please stop talking! Stop talking! Shall I copy it? I will copy it right away!"
Every time Qin Rushuang said something, everyone present felt like they were sweating again.
They had never realized so clearly that Qin Rushuang had come prepared and had already grasped their handle, and he was going to deal with them today!
How could they dare to resist? They started copying the books obediently. As long as Qin Rushuang didn't stop, they didn't dare to slack off. They continued copying until it was almost dark.
Qin Rushuang stayed by until dark.
Seeing that it was getting dark, she said to everyone, "It's getting late. Let's stay in Prince Huai's Mansion for dinner today."
Several people breathed a sigh of relief.
They thought that Princess White would teach them how to teach them, but they didn't expect that they would just copy books. Although they were aggrieved before, it was not unacceptable.
But this happiness disappeared completely by the time of dinner.
Today, Qin Rushuang brought a message to Xie Xun. She was going to receive guests at the mansion and asked Xie Xun to come back later.
Therefore, there were nine people including Qin Rushuang at the dinner table in Prince Huai's Mansion.
Except for Qin Rushuang, who had a bowl of meat porridge and a few dishes of side dishes in front of him, everyone else had a plate of ugly-looking wild fruits with thorns in front of them.
Seeing the wild fruit, Mrs. Zhou's face turned pale and she barely maintained the smile on her face, "What do you mean by this, Princess?"
"Oh, after I married into Prince Huai's Mansion, I followed the prince on various expeditions, and only then did I realize the suffering of ordinary soldiers and ordinary people. Do you all know about the plate of thorn fruits in front of me?"
"When the late emperor was fighting in the south and north, the world was in turmoil and the people were in dire straits. When the army he led was besieged, food and grass were cut off, so they could only eat wild fruits to satisfy their hunger. The thorn fruit was a fruit that the late emperor ate when he was desperate.
.”
"Not to mention, this thing is hard to find now. I searched in many places before I found all of them. I distributed them to you. Each of you only has ten pills."
"Tonight, ladies, please enjoy these ten thorn fruits."
Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart, and the other ladies dared not speak out in anger.
There is a layer of poisonous stings on the outside of the thorn fruit. If it pricks the hand, the pricked area will be red, swollen and itchy for half a month.
After removing the outer layer of poisonous sting, there is still a layer of fuzz inside. If that layer of fuzz is not removed and eaten directly, the mouth will swell and the face will become allergic.
The late emperor had no choice but to eat the thorn fruit with his soldiers, and it was later used as an allusion and written into history books.
But how can a normal person eat this crap?!
The predecessors had no choice but to eat because they would starve to death if they didn't eat it. Princess Huai actually used this thing to embarrass them!
Seeing that Qin Rushuang did not ask his servants to remove the sting from the outside of his penis, the ladies all knew that they would have to do it themselves!
No one made any move. This thing will be poisoned if touched and disfigured if eaten. Even Princess Hui cannot harm them like this!
Seeing that no one made any move, Qin Rushuang had expected it.
She slowly finished her bowl of porridge, ate several dishes of side dishes, and asked the maid to leave.
Then she said slowly: "If you can't finish eating these fruits, the ladies should not go back."
"A married woman who stays out all night and wears a single dress is enough for several ladies to drink a pot."
"Of course, if you don't want to eat it, that's fine. I'll send a message to the prince and ask him to bring the husbands of several ladies to come to the palace to enjoy the fruit that the late emperor ate. It will help you and your husband share the joys and sorrows together.
How’s the camaraderie?”
Everyone was silent again, and the first person to make a move was Zhou.
Zhou is smart, otherwise he would not have succeeded in rising to power from an outsider.
When she heard what Qin Rushuang said, her first reaction was that she had to eat it whether she wanted to or not.
If we really call all your husbands here...
If everyone does not eat, it is contempt for the late emperor; if everyone eats, it is King Huai leading everyone to remember the bitterness and sweetness.
If the former spreads, the husband's reputation will be damaged; if the latter spreads, there will be a gap between him and the fourth prince.
Princess Huai is so cruel!
Seeing Mrs. Zhou move, several ladies followed suit.
They were usually very pampered and pampered, but after a while, their jade hands were pricked and became red and swollen.
My hands were swollen, so naturally I couldn't pry out the fuzz inside. I had no choice but to eat it with the layer of fuzz attached.
The fruit was sour and astringent, and some poisonous fluff was attached to it after being eaten. By the time everyone finished the ten fruits with great difficulty, they were all in a state of embarrassment.
My hands were all red and swollen, itching terribly, my face was covered in red rash, and my mouth was swollen like a sausage in the twelfth lunar month!
There are several shameless ladies who wish they could die in Prince Huai's Mansion today!
With this look, if you meet an outsider when you go out, you might as well throw yourself into a lake!
Even though he was thinking this way, when he heard Qin Rushuang's order that he could go back to his house, he still couldn't wait to leave.
Qin Rushuang looked at the backs of everyone fleeing, feeling relieved.
And Qingzhi, who had not shown his face in the guest room, also walked out.
"Miss, is this going too far? If they pursue it..."
"It's not too much. Why is it too much? Don't they like to talk nonsense? You should know that trouble comes from your mouth. Since you can't control this mouth, I will control it for them!"
