Chapter 545 Everyone Goes Down the Mountain and Goes Their Separate Ways

The Queen Mother turned her eyes to Mrs. Xingguo and asked coldly: "Why is this?"

"I...I don't know..." Mrs. Tai's lips trembled a few times, and her hands and feet felt cold.

"I don't know that you dare to cut off the future of the royal bloodline and privately ask the fifth lady to be ordained as a nun?" the Queen Mother said sternly. In the past, she had always been kind to some ladies and old ladies in the palace, but this time But she couldn't bear it any longer, so she told Shao Wan that she had agreed to be her son, and she couldn't let Mrs. Xingguo rub her around like this.

A palace maid hurriedly came in and whispered to the eldest princess Ruian. The eldest princess Ruian stood up with a livid face and knelt down in front of the Queen Mother: "Please make the decision for that girl Zhuo Zhuo. Not only was her bracelets covered with honey, And it was also delivered to a fake Taoist nun, which is going to destroy her alive!"

After saying that, he kowtowed to the Queen Mother and glared at the Queen Mother with an evil look: "Tell me why you sent Zhuo Zhuo to a fake Taoist nun. You said that she was ordained and became a monk. It was clearly sending her into a den of prostitution. You This grandmother is so unkind!"

"Wha...what?" The madam's eyes widened in shock, her feet softened, and she fell from the chair and knelt down.

"Aren't you aware of the good deeds you have done? The costume you brought back at this moment doesn't know anything!" Princess Ruian sneered again and again.

The voice of the eldest princess Ruian was faintly heard in her ears. The madam's hands grasped a few times in vain, as if she wanted to grab something to support her body. Her eyesight went black for a while, and then her body went limp and she fainted...

The official document asking the Ministry of Punishment to find out what happened at Baiyunguan arrived the next day. The person in charge of the trial was Wen Xichi. This kind of matter is also related to many wealthy families. A man was let in among the female relatives in the backyard. , the meaning here is that it makes some people feel that their heads are green.

After receiving the transfer order, Wen Xichi hurriedly went down the mountain to deal with the matter of Baiyunguan. This matter happened to be taken over by him at that time, so he was temporarily in charge. Before the matter was found out, it would be better for few people to know about it, and no one would know about it. I know which family may be involved.

But no matter which family is involved, there will be no good results.

Wen Xichi went down the mountain, and the Ministry of Punishment sent Chief Ren over again, but this time he did not forcefully take custody of Yuhui'an, and all the personnel from the Ministry of Punishment were transferred there. If the remaining pilgrims wanted to leave, they could do so.

As soon as most of the pilgrims heard that they could leave, they packed their bags and hurried down the mountain. I was forced to stay in Yuhui Temple before, but now I can finally go down the mountain. Who is willing to stay?

Shao Wanru originally wanted to stay, but Shao Yanru was urged to go down the mountain by a letter from the Tai Madam, saying that the Tai Madam was seriously ill and asked Shao Yanru to come down to serve her. After thinking about it, Shao Wanru went down the mountain to visit with Shao Yanru. She had grown up since she was a child. According to the news from the princess, Mrs. Xingguo's wife fainted in the Queen Mother's palace that night and has not woken up yet!

This is really sick!

Since she was really sick, and the illness was quite serious, how could Shao Wanru, as her granddaughter, not go and see her? It was filial piety to be filial to one's parents, and it was also filial piety to visit one's grandmother. If she didn't go, it would inevitably cause controversy.

Mrs. Xingguo Gongfu was ill, and she became ill after fainting in the palace of the Queen Mother. I heard that the Queen Mother even had people visit her, but it is said that the people who went to visit did not reward Mrs. Xingguo Gongfu with anything. I was empty-handed when I came back, and I was empty-handed when I came back.

There is also a story about the mistress of Duke Xingguo's palace framing the fifth lady of Duke Xingguo's palace, saying that she put honey on the jewelry, saying that evil spirits were attacking her and she wanted the fifth lady to become a monk.

The emperor was furious in the palace because of this incident and found a reason to beat Duke Xingguo. Recently, Duke Xingguo was also recovering from his injuries in the palace...

A lot of news about Duke Xingguo's mansion came out one by one. It is not certain whether the previous ones are true or not, but the story about Duke Xingguo being beaten is absolutely true. Now he can't even attend the court meeting. He is indeed recuperating at home. This happened on the second day after the lady fainted in the palace.

Many aristocratic families are spreading rumors that Duke Xingguo's palace is no longer in favor. Even Duke Xingguo has been beaten. It seems that Duke Xingguo's palace is getting worse every year!

Shao Yanru and Shao Wanru did not ride in the same carriage. They each had their own carriage and went down the mountain together.

In the carriage, Shao Yanru's face was as dark as water, and she stared at a certain place on the car curtain with a cold expression. She was angry and blocked. What kind of thing was her grandmother doing? Not only did she fail to take down Shao Wanru, but she also harmed her own father and even harmed her. My father was punished by the emperor and even beaten.

This is a beating for people, but also for face. I heard that there have been fewer people coming and going in the mansion recently. It must be that other families feel that Duke Xinguo's mansion has lost its favor and dare not come to the door.

It was obviously a sure thing, but in the end it ended up like this. Although he was not directly implicated, it was obvious that he was affected. If his father really lost his favor because of this, it would not hurt him at all. The benefits may even affect your own marriage.

Just thinking about this makes her feel better!

"What did Master Puming say?" Suddenly she thought of something again and asked. Just when she was coming down the mountain, the disciples beside Master Puming came over in a hurry. She had already got in the car and asked Shuqi to negotiate.

"Master Puming returned this to Miss!" Shuqi took out a purse from his arms and handed it over.

"Juzai returned the banknote!" Shao Yanru glanced at her purse and snorted coldly. This was her reward for letting Master Puming mention Taoist Sister Xiushui of Baiyun Temple.

"Yes... yes, Master Puming said that she didn't know anything and only mentioned it occasionally. She had met Taoist Xiushui of Baiyun Temple before and talked to him several times. She felt that he was a man of the right principles. Now I just found out that I was deceived." Shuqi lowered his head and said.

"You damn bald donkey, you are so timid when something happens!" Shao Yanru sneered. Fortunately, Master Puming was not stupid, and it was true that she got to know this Xiushui Taoist priest.

I heard that we met when we went to the foot of the mountain to perform rituals. After some wealthy families die, they will invite some monks and Taoists to come over. There are monks and Taoists here, and after doing a few rituals together, they can be called If you are familiar with it, you won't find anything if you check it like this.

As for the acquaintance between Master Puming and Taoist Xiushui, it was Master Pushan who mentioned it to Shao Yanru.

"Miss, what should we do now?" Shuqi asked uneasily.

"Just put it away, and she won't be able to say anything bad about it. Originally, this was my thank you gift to her, and it was given with the intention of my grandmother!" Shao Yanru said disdainfully.

Mrs. Puming doesn't seem to be stupid. It's hard for her to get over it if this matter really breaks down. She only introduces people she knows and feels they are okay. Even if something happens, she can't be blamed. This Beijing No one among them found out what happened to Taoist Xiushui.

"As soon as we get down the mountain, let Shao Wanru go to the mansion of the eldest princess first!" Shao Yanru ordered. She still needs an explanation for the matter at Baiyunguan. If she explains it too late, it will be a sentimental matter. This matter is more important than the illness of the concubine. But it was much more important. She had to give an explanation first.

Of course, Shao Wanru couldn't know about this, and he had to send her away.

"This... what should the eldest lady do?" Shuqi asked uneasily.

Shao Yanru lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised the corners of his lips coldly, "After going down the mountain, let the car stop on the roadside to rest."

"Yes, miss!" Shuqi put away his purse, then pulled up the curtain and gave instructions to the coachman outside.

All the way down the mountain, at the bottom of the mountain, Shao Yanru's carriage stopped first, and then Shao Wanru's carriage, which was following behind, also stopped.

When the carriage stopped, Shao Yanru supported Shu Qi's hand and got out of his carriage, "Go and ask Miss Fifth to come down and have a rest!"

Shuqi walked to the carriage at the back and said to Shao Wanru in the carriage: "Fifth Miss, the eldest lady, please come out and have a rest. I am very tired from the bumpy journey."

In the carriage, Yu Jie looked at Shao Wanru. Shao Wanru opened his eyes slightly and nodded silently.

Yujie picked up the curtain hat at hand, put it on for Shao Wanru, and then helped her get out of the carriage. Shao Yanru had already been waiting by the roadside. Seeing Shao Wanru coming down wearing the curtain hat, she smiled and waved to her. I waved, there was a shade of trees over there.

Shao Wanru walked over.

"Fifth sister, let's just rest for a while. We don't need to wear curtains!" Shao Yanru said with a friendly smile.

Shao Wanru looked at her face through the veil. She was really friendly and seemed to be in a good mood. It was amazing that she was in a good mood at this time!

"I just took it off and put it on." Shao Wanru said lightly with a smile.

"Fifth sister will come down the mountain in a while. You should go to the eldest princess's mansion to say hello first!" Shao Yanru said softly, the smile on his face faded, seeming a little embarrassed, "My mother sent someone to spread the news about what happened before. No one really expected this...the Taoist priests from Baiyun Temple are actually..."

Shao Yanru couldn't continue talking for a while and lowered her head. A woman who had not yet left the cabinet really couldn't talk about this kind of thing. Thinking about the dirty things in it, she felt that even talking about it made people feel dirty.

"Sister, who do you think coated my bracelet and longevity lock with honey?" Shao Wanru did not hide that she already knew about this, "I remember that these two things were sent by the government. I have never Never worn it!”

"This...I don't know, or which servant did it. I believe grandma will definitely give you an explanation. Even if you are not raised under her knees, you are still a close relative by blood, and I will not let you eat it no matter what." It’s a shame, but it’s the eldest princess. Grandma feels very owed, so you should go and see the eldest princess first!”

This means that Shao Wanru should go to Princess Dachang's mansion to deal with it.

"Okay, I'll go see my grandma later. I hope my eldest sister will explain more, so that she won't scold me again!" Shao Wanru said pointedly.

"It should, it should!" Shao Yanru nodded repeatedly.

After the two of them said a few more words, they got on the carriage again, and when they turned down the mountain road, they parted ways and left, but no one went to the Xingguo Duke's Mansion first...
