Chapter 32 Come to the door to give money to Shi Shi
Chu Yunxi looked up and saw that there were still books. It was really tiring. It would be great if the books on the upper floor could be removed by themselves.
Just as she was thinking this, the books in front of her suddenly changed and were replaced by martial arts books, which recorded various moves from strengthening the body to defeating the enemy with one move.
She was filled with surprise and uncertainty, and then tried to think about the books on the sixth floor. Sure enough, the books in front of her had changed again, and became literature. They were all records of famous songs, famous paintings, and famous sayings.
Where is this place? Chu Yunxi felt that she had to investigate. She went downstairs and returned to the door. She calmed down and decided to go out and see what was going on around her.
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she suddenly opened her eyes and saw the familiar tent.
What happened? After leaving that door, a dream appeared? What did this dream mean? If she had known it, she would have explored inside for a while.
She suddenly felt a little annoyed. Why didn't she have the courage to take another look at Jun Lingyun's biography? Even if it was a dream, she wanted to know more. She didn't know if she could dream there again.
She forced herself to calm down and fell asleep again, but she dreamed of nothing again.
Early the next morning, after Chu Yunxi had breakfast, he found Butler Cao, gave him one hundred taels of silver, and ordered him to deliver it to Miss Shi Shi in the Jingzhao Yin Mansion.
Butler Cao felt angry after hearing Chu Yunxi tell the whole story.
As soon as Jing Zhaoyin went to work, he was told that he would be suspended for investigation and that someone would take his place.
When the Crown Prince investigated Jing Zhaoyin, he did so openly and honestly. Jing Zhaoyin went to a familiar colleague and inquired about it, and learned that it was His Highness the Crown Prince's order to investigate him.
He has always been cautious in his work as an official. I really can't figure out why His Highness the Prince would investigate him personally. Could it be because of what happened a few days ago? Was it exposed so quickly?
Jing Zhaoyin returned to the house in a daze, and everyone in the house was shocked, as if they were facing a disaster.
When Shi Shi returned home that day, he didn't dare to say that he had offended someone he shouldn't have and caused a huge disaster. Of course, he didn't dare to go to the general's residence to ask for money.
She was feeling uneasy when she heard someone say that someone was coming to General Chu's house, and she staggered with fright.
Chu Yunxi asked Butler Cao to come because she felt that to give Shi Shi "face", if she just sent a servant randomly, how could it be a deterrent? Of course, the butler was more impressive.
Jingzhao Yinzheng was caught by His Highness the Crown Prince for some unknown reason, and now he asked the housekeeper of General Chu's house to visit him. Realizing that the situation was serious, he went out personally to welcome him.
"Steward Cao, please come in quickly."
"No need!" Butler Cao came here to slap him in the face. Since it's a slap in the face, naturally the more people he sees, the better. It's inconvenient to go in, so it's better to tell him at the door.
"Master Shi, this is the hundred taels of silver that our eldest lady has given to Miss Shi Shi of your house. Let Miss Shi Shi use it to buy a new pair of shoes."
Although he was talking about accompanying gifts, his chin was raised high, and there was no one else in the entire capital who dared to blackmail the general's palace.
Jing Zhaoyin tremblingly took the silver that was like a hot potato: "Here, where do you start talking about this?"
Those who did not mind the excitement had pricked up their ears to listen.
"It seems that Mr. Shi doesn't know yet. Yesterday, our eldest daughter, the General's Mansion, was shopping and accidentally stepped on Miss Shi Shi's shoes."
"I can't apologize. Your lady Shi Shi said that her shoes are worth a hundred taels, and she insists on making us pay for it."
Jing Zhaoyin's complexion suddenly turned pale, and his heart thumped as he scolded Shi Shi a hundred times as a rebellious girl!
There was already a sigh of relief all around:
"This young lady from the Jingzhao Yin family is so brave. She asked the young lady from the palace of the Protector General to ask for money without even apologizing!"
"It's only a hundred taels for opening your mouth. It seems that Jing Zhaoyin is really a fat man. A pair of embroidered shoes by the lady in the mansion costs a hundred taels of silver."
"No, it's enough for ordinary people to eat for many years."
…
I don’t know whose family members speak so directly and boldly, but in this capital city, if you pick anyone at random, they will all be high-ranking officials or relatives of the emperor.
Although his official position in Jing Zhaoyin is not small, he is really not worthy of mentioning in front of those big shots.
Jing Zhaoyin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding."
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost exaggerated, Butler Cao continued:
"Our young lady has always been frugal and doesn't bring so much money with her when she goes out. No, today we sent a little man to deliver money to Miss Shi Shi."
Presumably after today, Shi Shi will also be "famous in the capital".
"Steward Cao, my little girl is ignorant. I will definitely hold her down and apologize to Miss Chu! I would also like to ask Steward Cao to say a few kind words in front of General Chu. I am grateful and grateful."
Jing Zhaoyin almost knelt down in front of Butler Cao, but held back due to his status.
"Our eldest lady likes to be clean, so there is no need to apologize. However, our eldest lady said that not everyone can afford to pay a hundred taels of silver. If Miss Shi Shi goes out next time and meets an ordinary person, she must not do it again.
The only way to yell at others is to make them kneel down and lick their shoes."
Hearing this, Jing Zhaoyin broke out in a cold sweat. This was clearly stating that his daughter was bullying others by taking advantage of her power, and even bullied the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion.
"Oh my god, you want the eldest lady of the General's Mansion to kneel down and lick her shoes? Does she think she is the King of Heaven?"
Some people couldn't help but ridicule.
"Compared with each other, she can distinguish between high and low. She is worthy of being the future crown princess for being able to consider ordinary people."
As soon as these words came out, everyone agreed, and there were only a few high-ranking officials who could really think of the sufferings of the people.
The word "Crown Princess" made Jingzhao Yin suddenly enlightened. No wonder! No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince came to check on him! What a curse, what a curse, why did he give birth to such a curse!
"If Mr. Shi also knew the suffering of the people, he would have restrained his family members more, not to be extravagant and not to bully the weak. Then Cao's trip would not have been in vain."
Butler Cao perfectly completed the errands assigned by Chu Yunxi and returned home.
"Yes, yes, I will remember this. I will punish my little girl severely, and I will never do it again."
When Jing Zhaoyin saw Butler Cao walking away, he angrily walked towards Shi Shi's courtyard: "Come here, get me some family law."
"Father, father, how could my daughter know that she is the eldest lady of the General's Mansion? She didn't show her identity at first."
To this day, Shi Shi still feels that it was Chu Yunxi who concealed her identity, and does not feel that if it had been someone else, she would have done something wrong.
"Crack!"
"Ah~ Father, are you really cruel to beating your daughter?"
"You still dare to argue that even if you are not the eldest lady of the general's palace, you can bully me at will?"
"Ah, father, please forgive me!" Shi Shi hid around.
"Spare my life? I don't know who will spare my life! You bastard! Your shoes are so valuable? Huh?"
"Crack!"
"Father, my daughter has really realized her mistake. Please spare her this time, wuwu..."
"I asked you to hide! I asked you to hide! You short-sighted thing, I have never been so embarrassed in my life. You have killed me. If I spare you, can General Chu and His Highness the Crown Prince spare me?"
"
"Ah~, father, please stop beating me. If you continue to beat me, your daughter will be killed."
"I'm just going to kill you, a blind thing like you. Do you think you can still get married after today? It's better to die cleanly!"
…
There was a lot of excitement in Jingzhao Yin's house, but Butler Cao had already gone back to report to Chu Yunxi.
