Chapter 1285
Aunt Yun and Cao Yiqiu were arrested and imprisoned, but they were still in a daze, not knowing what happened.
When Mrs. Cao entered the prison and looked at the cell, Aunt Yun grabbed her hand and asked anxiously, "Ma'am, what happened to the master?" She thought it was Cao Fengyu who committed the crime and implicated the whole family.
Madam Cao swept Aunt Kaiyun's hand, then took two steps back. She didn't make a fool of herself either, and said with a cold face: "Yu Da is not the son of a sixth-rank official, but the third prince. This time he went out to practice with Mr. Pang, and he got such an identity to avoid trouble." In fact, Cao Madam regretted it too. If she controlled the inner house well and did not let Aunt Yun and Cao Yiqiu go, she would not be in trouble today. It's a pity that it's useless to regret, now she only asks the third prince to let her two children go.
Before Aunt Yun could speak, Cao Yiqiu screamed: "Impossible, how could such a poor scholar be the third prince?" In Cao Yiqiu's impression, princes and grandchildren should be very generous even if they don't spend a lot of money. But this Yu Da, a copper coin, wants to be broken into two halves. How could such a person be a prince!
When Brother Xuan was in the capital, silver was just a number to him, and he never paid attention to it. But along the way, if they don't plan carefully, they will go hungry. And even if they are now, he is very tight. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to send only one painting that he made that day. With no money in hand, brother Xuan couldn't be generous even if he wanted to.
"If not, why do you think we are in prison?" Because she is also responsible for this matter, Mrs. Cao did not scold Aunt Yun, mother and daughter angrily.
Sitting on the ground, Cao Yiqiu cried, "Impossible, I don't believe it, I don't believe it." If so, she would have picked up sesame seeds and lost the watermelon. No, the watermelon was not grasped firmly, and the sesame seeds were also lost.
Mrs. Cao ignored Cao Yiqiu, but asked Aunt Yun: "When you were arrested, did you see officers and soldiers arresting other people?"
Aunt Yun was in a daze at the moment, she didn't know what Mrs. Cao was talking about.
When she came back to her senses, Aunt Yun asked in panic: "Ma'am, we plotted against the third prince, will we behead him for public display?
"I don't know. Even if I don't beheaded, I will be exiled." She didn't care anymore, she just hoped that her son and daughter would not be implicated.
Mrs. Cao knew in her heart that what Cao Fengyu did would definitely implicate her son. I just hope it doesn't endanger my life.
Cao Yiting was kicked out of Cao's house, but because of brother Xuan's words, the officers and soldiers allowed them to bring out a package each.
After leaving Cao's house, Cao Yiting took money and rented a small house to house her concubine sister and three concubine brothers, including Xi Geer, born to Aunt Yun. As for the maids and women, all of these had to be sold, so they couldn't bring them out. I have to say that Cao Yiting has a bad temper, but her character is fine. Otherwise, it would be the younger brothers and sisters who are ordinary who hold grudges and who are not willing to control concubines.
After settling these things, Cao Yiting asked the eldest son of the Liang family who rushed over to inquire about the news.
"What? Yu Da is the third prince?" Cao Yiting really couldn't believe that the clumsy, stingy Yu Da was actually the third prince.
The young master of the Liang family said with a pale face: "Yi Ting, imprisoning the prince is a serious crime. Aunt, I'm afraid it will be difficult to rescue." As for Cao Fengyu, he doesn't care whether he lives or dies.
It is very lucky not to implicate the entire Cao Mansion. Otherwise, she would be in prison now. Just thinking about her mother who was caught in prison, Cao Yiting felt like a knife was piercing her heart.
Early the next morning, Cao Yiting called her sister Cao Yifang over. Although Cao Yifang is a concubine, she has a gentle and docile temperament, and she gets along well with Cao Yiting.
Cao Yiting handed her one hundred taels of silver, and said, "You save some of this money, and it will definitely last until the elder brother comes back. Before the elder brother comes back, you take Brother Xi here, and don't go anywhere else. If you want to buy anything, let Uncle Rong buy it." Uncle Rong is the second housekeeper of the Liang family, and Master Liang asked him to come over to help take care of the family.
In fact, Cao Yiting brought a lot of jewelry this time.
It's just that she doesn't know what the outcome will be in the future. She still has to keep the money for management, so she doesn't have much money for Cao Yifang.
"Big sister, where are you going? Big sister, you can't leave us alone." Her parents were arrested and the family disappeared. Although Cao Yifang was afraid, with Cao Yiting here, she just had to take good care of Xi Geer. But now Cai Yiting didn't care about it anymore, she was suddenly lost.
Cao Yiting said: "I want to ask the Third Prince to spare my parents."
"Eldest sister, the third prince won't agree. It's useless for you to go. Even, you will be implicated." Now it's spread all over the streets and alleys. The third girl of the Cao family is pregnant again, but she dare not go to the victim and follow her. , but wanted to frame the third prince who had concealed his identity, and wanted the third prince to take over.
"Even if I get implicated, I will go. I can't leave my mother alone." As a child, she can't do anything while watching her parents suffer.
Cao Yifang tried hard to persuade her to no avail, so she could only watch her go out. After returning to the house, looking at Xi Geer who was sleeping soundly on the bed and spitting bubbles, his eyes showed disgust.
Aunt Yun and Cao Yiqiu often made things difficult for her and bullied her, how could she really like Brother Xi in this situation. But it was Cao Yiting's order, and she had to follow it.
When Cao Yiting arrived at the place where Brother Xuan lived, she knelt at the door. He didn't cry out for injustice or beg for mercy, he straightened up and knelt there.
Brother Xuan hated the members of Cao's family extremely: "Drag her away."
Ah San said at this time: "Your Highness, this girl Cao Yiting has a bad temper, but she has a good heart." It can be said that this matter of the Cao family has yielded good results.
That day he scolded Cao Yiting indiscriminately, and the girl blushed with anger and scolded him back. Now that he thought about offending his eldest daughter as soon as he entered the door, if he wanted to take revenge, it would be impossible for him to live in Cao's mansion for such a long time.
Brother Xuan paused, and said: "Since you want to kneel, let her kneel! I'd like to see how long she can last?" He knew that Cao Yiting was here to intercede. That being the case, he wanted to see how much perseverance Cao Yiting had and how long she could last.
The young master of the Liang family rushed over when he got the news, and when he saw Cao Yiting kneeling at the gate, he knelt together without saying a word.
Cao Yiting was afraid that the eldest son of the Liang family would be implicated, so she immediately returned the jade pendant worn by the two of them as a token of engagement, saying that she would withdraw from the marriage.
The Young Master of the Liang family didn't want to retire or leave, so he knelt down with Cao Yiting.
Brother Xuan heard this, and said to Ah San: "This young master of the Liang family is kind and righteous." It is said that the husband and wife are originally birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes. The young master of the Liang family and Cao Yiting are just an unmarried couple. Now that the Cao family is in trouble, it is really rare that the young master of the Liang family not only has not retired but is willing to advance and retreat with Cao Yiting.
Ah San accepted this, and said: "There are thousands of kinds of people in the world. There are people like Yu Congpei who are ruthless and ungrateful, and there are young masters of the Liang family who are as loving and righteous. There are people like Cao Yiqiu who are full of love and love, and there are people like Cao Yiting." The character is noble and filial."
"It's because I'm blind, I only see people and things on the surface." Back then, he also believed the rumors that Cao Yiting was an arrogant, domineering, rude and barbaric woman. But in the end, he was slapped in the face.
That's the case, but Brother Xuan didn't meet Cao Yiting immediately, but to see how long she could last.
Cao Yiting knelt at the gate for two days and two nights, and finally she couldn't take it anymore and fainted.
When Brother Xuan heard about this, he asked Cao Yiting to be carried in, and the maid gave her water.
Opening her eyes, Cao Yiting saw Brother Xuan. Brother Xuan at this time was completely different from what she had seen before.
I saw Brother Xuan wearing a black brocade and silk python robe, and black deer boots on his feet. His hair stood up with a white jade hair crown, and his face was cold, looking particularly majestic.
The appearance has not changed, but the temperament of the whole person has changed. It is not an exaggeration to say that someone has changed.
Cao Yiting got up from the bed and knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Your Highness, please let my mother go! My mother doesn't know about this, my mother is innocent."
Brother Xuan said expressionlessly: "But Lingtang admitted that she knew about this matter."
"My father is in charge of the family, and my mother dare not disobey my father's wishes." After speaking, Cao Yiting wiped her tears and said, "Your Highness, I would like to make amends on behalf of my mother, and I hope His Royal Highness can make it happen."
Ah San interjected at this moment: "Even if you are thrown into the land of fireworks, are you willing?"
Cao Yiting froze, then shook her head.
Brother Xuan was a little disappointed, he thought Cao Yiting would agree to anything for her mother!
But Ah San thought about it a bit more: "Didn't you just say that you would like to redeem your mother on behalf of your mother, why didn't you agree now?"
Cao Yiting showed a pitiful smile: "Exile in Liaodong, at least my mother still has a life. But if I enter the land of fireworks, then she will definitely not be able to live." Not only will her mother's life be killed, but she will also be folded into it. How could she agree to such a stupid thing.
After a pause, Cao Yiting bowed to Brother Xuan again, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for not implicating the Cao family." Based on what her father and Aunt Yun's mother and daughter have done, the three clans are not guilty It's an exaggeration, but it's already magnanimous for the third prince to pursue those involved. She shouldn't ask for more.
Brother Xuan could feel that Cao Yiting was sincerely thanking her, and he was a little sighed at the moment. He regards fish eyes as pearls and pearls as fish eyes, no wonder his mother is angry with such eyes.
"I'll order them to release Mrs. Cao later." Seeing Cao Yiting's astonishment, Brother Xuan said: "I scolded you indiscriminately that day, and this should be regarded as an apology." Brother Xuan can do this Firstly, he was moved by Cao Yiting's filial piety and young master Liang's infatuation; secondly, because Mrs. Cao was able to confess his faults calmly; thirdly, he was not neglected during his time in Cao's residence.
Cao Yiting burst into tears with excitement: "Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness."
"You thanked me too early. Cao Fengyu, I won't let you go." This bastard actually wants his life, and he is not the holy father, how can he let him go.
Cao Yiting knew that Brother Xuan's letting her mother go was already an extra favor, so how could she dare to go further and ask for more.
