Chapter 1197: 503 Complaint
Mrs. Fang Santai's body almost trembled slightly, and she could not wait to leave here immediately.
Mrs. Fang Sitai, who was sitting beside Mrs. Fang Santai, knew her third sister-in-law's soft temper best, knowing that it would be really bad if it went on like this, so she hurriedly said: "Prince Concubine, please listen to the old man. Word!"
Hearing this, Nangong Yue looked at Madam Fang Sitai, and said lightly, "I don't know what Mrs. Fang Sitai has in mind?"
The Fang family is now headed by Sifang, and Mrs. Fang Sitai is also the patriarch's wife.
She cleared her throat and said with a smile, "Concubine Shizi, Aunt Niu did wear Dongzhu privately, and I didn't dare to intercede for her." After speaking, she glanced at Aunt Niu contemptuously. In my heart, even if Aunt Niu was Xiao Fang's aunt, she was still a concubine after all, and she couldn't put it on the table.
Mrs. Fang Sitai continued: "However, this teaching rule is not in a hurry. Today is Wang Ye's birthday. Lao Shen and the third sister-in-law are the Wang Ye's mother-in-law. They should stay and congratulate the Wang Ye. What's the matter, wait for the birthday. It's not too late to talk after the banquet."
Mrs. Fang Sitai believed that she was right and reasonable, and thought that if Nangong Yue didn't look at the face of the monk and looked at the face of the Buddha, even if she looked at the face of King Zhennan, she would still leave a few people in the third room.
Nangong Yue frowned slightly, and said righteously, "Mrs. Fang Sitai's words are wrong, this aunt in my grandmother's house violated the law, and my grandmother, as the mistress of the house, can't escape the responsibility of oversight! The origin of appeasement is because of 'appeasement'. , will let this concubine make such a big mistake!"
Mrs. Fang Sitai stopped for a while, and her face was not very good-looking.
Nangong Yue continued: "The Fang family disregards the rules, but our palace cannot join forces with it!"
Mommy Luo stretched out her hand to make a petition: "Mrs. Fang Santai, Mrs. Fang San, please!"
"Hexiang." Mrs. Fang Sitai gave a wink to the blue-clothed maid next to her, and said in a low voice, "Go ahead and tell the old man, the third room has been expelled by the concubine, and will be driven away. ." Mrs. Fang Sitai's tone was irritable, and her heart was anxious and angry. On the one hand, she complained that the third room did not follow the rules, and on the other hand, she complained that Nangong Yue disregarded the affection of her relatives.
The maid Hexiang responded and quietly retreated outside the house, then carried her skirt and almost ran away.
He Xiang rushed forward, walked through a veranda, then bypassed Guipu Hall, and passed through the second gate, which was the outer courtyard of the palace. He Xiang didn't dare to stop and passed another Ruyi door, and came to the Xingsu Building in the outer courtyard.
At this moment, before the banquet started, all the guests sat in their respective seats according to their identities, drinking tea, talking, and the atmosphere was very lively.
Although Mr. Fang Si was not able to share the table with King Zhennan, he was sitting at the table closest to the chairman's table. He was chatting with Mr. Fang Wu next to him.
He Xiang quietly walked to the side of Mr. Fang Si, and whispered in his ear that the female family members of the third room were ordered to be expelled by the imperial concubine.
Fang Si's expression changed suddenly, and he almost didn't jump up.
This princess is too willful! It's simply that he didn't take the son's mother in his eyes!
Even if she is dissatisfied with her mother-in-law Xiao Fang and the Fang family's third family, but as the saying goes, broken bones connect tendons, Fang family's third family is part of the Fang family, and Xiao Yi's biological mother is generous. The surname is a square. As the saying goes, one prosperous one is prosperous, and one loss is all detrimental. Today, if the Fang family's three houses are forcibly driven away by the concubine, it will be embarrassing not only for the three parties of the Fang family, but also for the entire Fang family!
Once people mistakenly believe that the Fang family and Zhennan Wangfu have broken up, the Fang family will not only lose face, but even their status in the southern border may not be guaranteed in the future!
Mr. Fang Si's face became more ugly the more he thought about it, and he instructed He Xiang, "Go quietly help me to send a message to the prince, and ask him to go to the next wing to talk, and then say that I have something important to tell you."
He Xiang took the order to go, and the fourth old man Fang pretended to go to the clean room, exited the main hall of Xingsu Building as if nothing had happened, and let the boy guarding outside lead him to a wing room on the right.
He didn't have the heart to sit down at all, and walked back and forth impatiently in the wing.
Fortunately, He Xiang soon led King Zhennan to come.
King Zhennan is a birthday star today, so he deliberately wore a bright red robe with carved silk from the Crane and Ruicao.
There is a saying that people feel refreshed when they are happy. King Zhennan, who strode forward, seemed to be full of red, high-spirited, tall and straight, and his steps exuded a kind of self-confidence and domineering of a superior.
The fourth grandfather Fang clenched his fists apologetically, and said with consideration: "Today is the lord's birthday, and I shouldn't have bothered the lord. But my old wife just sent someone to tell me that the female family members of the third room of my Fang family have somehow annoyed the prince and concubine. , Shi Zifei, she actually wants to expel guests. After all, Shizifei is young and vigorous, and I asked the lord to persuade Shizifei, the palace and the Fang family are related by marriage, so why let outsiders see jokes..."
King Zhennan's face became more and more ugly as he listened to it. The original good mood was gone, and he said angrily: "Prince Concubine Shi is too immature!" After speaking, he assured the other party, the fourth grandfather, "This king will definitely help the Fang family in this matter. Be in charge!" No matter what the people in the third house of the Fang family did wrong, Concubine Shizi should also put things down for the time being, and it's not to make the two houses feel ashamed if they have to make trouble so ugly!
Grandpa Fang Si heaved a sigh of relief and said with an apologetic smile, "Thank you, my lord. Then I'll go back to the table first."
The fourth grandfather Fang left the wing, and the king of Zhennan said: "come here!"
The long attendant who was guarding outside immediately came in and bowed to obey.
"Go get someone..." King Zhennan originally wanted to ask Changsui to tell someone to pass the word, so that Nangongyue would not be so presumptuous, but he hesitated halfway through his words.
He didn't think deeply when he was angry just now, but now that he thinks about it carefully, Concubine Shizi has taken care of everything properly since she came to Luoyue City. With her steady temperament, she probably won't let the other party's three rooms down because of a trivial matter. Eviction order. Even for Xiao Yi's rebellious son, she shouldn't ignore the Fang family's face at all.
Will there be something strange about what happened today?
King Zhennan was thoughtful, his mood eased a bit, and he changed his mind and ordered: "You ask Kikyo to go to Guiputang to see what happened."
"Yes, my lord." Chang followed the order.
About a cup of tea, Kikyo brought Baihui over.
After Baihui bowed her knees to King Zhennan, she did not rush to explain, but respectfully presented the Danfeng hairpin that had been pulled from Concubine Niu's head.
King Zhennan was at a loss, but he still recognized at a glance that the pearl in the mouth of Danfeng on the hairpin was Dongzhu, and it was a rare high-grade Dongzhu.
"What's the matter with this hairpin?" King Zhennan asked suspiciously.
Baihui said respectfully, "My lord, this hairpin is worn by Concubine Niu today."
What? ! Xiao Fang's aunt dared to wear Dongzhu privately to her birthday banquet! King Zhennan looked shocked.
He instinctively wanted to scold him, but then he thought of where Dongzhu, this rare treasure, Aunt Niu, came from. The answer is obvious -
Little Fang!
In an instant, King Zhennan's face changed from shock to embarrassment.
"My lord, today Aunt Niu broke into the open hall without authorization..." Baihui explained the incident in a clear and orderly manner, and the main point of what she said was that Aunt Niu not only wore Dongzhu privately, but also arrogant. In front of everyone, he admitted that he was wearing Dongzhu.
With Baihui's narration, King Zhennan's complexion became more and more ugly, until it was so gloomy that it almost dripped with water, and the blue veins on his forehead jumped.
That Aunt Niu was wearing Dongzhu privately, and everyone knew it! It's too stupid to be so stupid!
His face was completely disgraced by this daring mother and daughter!
It's just that the imperial concubine's expulsion is still a bit reckless...
Baihui ignored King Zhennan's cloudy face, and said with a low brow: "My lord, the concubine said that wearing Dongzhu privately can be big or small. If you just reprimand Aunt Niu a few words in private, it will make her not in the future. It’s okay to commit a crime again. But today is under the watchful eyes of the public, and the female relatives of the various governments have seen it with their own eyes. I’m not afraid of anything else, but I’m afraid that it will spread to the ears of the noble who came from the capital… and thus will misunderstand the prince. ." Baihui said very implicitly, and it was up to King Zhennan to imagine.
An Yihou...
King Zhennan's pupils shrank.
Yes, An Yihou is in the front yard now!
Thinking of this, King Zhennan's heart is not only angry, but also worried.
Xiao Fang's biological mother blatantly wore Dongzhu at her birthday banquet. If this matter spread to the ears of Marquis Anyi, he would only feel that he acquiesced, and even gave Dongzhu "filial piety" to Aunt Niu. of!
What does this represent? It means that he disregarded the etiquette and condoned the Fang family's favored concubine to destroy his wife. It means that the king of Zhennan is arrogant and arrogant and does not take the law of Dayu seriously. It means that he believes that he is the king of the vassal, and he deliberately provokes the authority of the court, and is suspected of occupying the land to be the king...
King Zhennan was frightened for a while, and he almost didn't dare to think about it.
Baihui's expression remained calm, and she sighed, "Concubine Shi said that Concubine Niu didn't know how to behave and made things too big, and everyone knows that, instead of trying to cover it up, it would be better for people to think that our palace is guilty. It was dealt with in a dignified manner, and let everyone know that this concubine Niu acted recklessly and was not at the behest of the prince."
Baihui stopped when she clicked, and said no more.
King Zhennan pondered for a moment, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Concubine Shizi did the right thing. This matter could not be concealed at all. Concubine Shizi's disposal method was undoubtedly the best. Thinking of this, he nodded slightly and said, "If you go back to the imperial concubine, just say that this king has ordered the expulsion of guests!"
King Zhennan didn't mind at all that Nangongyue bumped into his birthday banquet regardless of the face of his relatives. It's only Xiao Fang's fault that she so boldly gave Dongzhu to a concubine! If it weren't for the fact that there were so many guests in the front yard, he really wanted to rush to Mrs. Fang's place and question her.
Now I can only be patient for a while, and wait until the birthday banquet is over...
King Zhennan walked out with great strides, releasing a hostile anger all over his body, and at the same time, Mr. Just now, Mr. Fang Si said half of what he said, and half of it was hidden. For the face of the Fang family, he didn't take the face of the palace seriously!
Baihui responded with a blessing behind her: "Yes, Your Highness!"
Baihui left the wing and hurriedly returned to the Guipu Hall in the inner courtyard.
The atmosphere in the open hall was a bit weird. Concubine Niu was still being controlled by two wives. Everyone in the Fang family was embarrassed, while the female family members were more absent-minded, chatting with the people beside them without a word.
Seeing Baihui's return, the female relatives all looked at her, eager to see what King Zhennan's attitude was, whether he was standing on the side of the prince's concubine, or...
Aunt Niu, who was restrained by the side, showed anticipation. In the past, King Zhennan was always polite to him, and he would definitely give him a little face!
Baihui stepped forward calmly, came to Nangong Yue, and bowed her knees and said, "Returning to the eldest concubine, the lord has an order: please Mrs. Fang Santai and Mrs. Fang San to return to the manor!"
The hall became quiet again, and the faces of the female relatives couldn't hide their surprise. Although it was said that the third room of the Fang family had indeed made a big mistake this time, and the evidence was conclusive, how can the third room of the Fang family be also the in-laws of the palace, and the palace The eldest girl and the second son have a continuous blood relationship. I thought that when King Zhennan came forward, most of them would lift it up and put it down gently. I didn't expect King Zhennan to stand on the side of the prince again... ... It seems that the status of the prince's concubine in the palace can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai.
Aunt Niu couldn't believe her ears. King Zhennan didn't give her mother-in-law some face? ! Her feet were soft, and until this moment, there was a very bad feeling.
No...she wants to see her daughter!
Aunt Niu screamed, but her mouth was sealed, so she couldn't make any sound.
Mrs. Fang Sitai was also a little dazed. She didn't understand what went wrong. She didn't order someone to inform the old man. Why didn't the old man go to the prince to deal with it?
At this moment, she felt the eyes around her pierce her body like Limang, and she only felt that her old face was hot.
The prince concubine... actually really disregarded the face of the Fang family!
The old man was right, the prince did not marry a girl from the Fang family, and he would only become more and more estranged from the Fang family in the future. Today, Concubine Shizi dares to show the face of the Fang family in front of so many people, and in the future, she will definitely encourage the prince to cut off contact with the Fang family...
This is not good!
Mrs. Fang Sitai's brows were tightly wrinkled together, and she had to quickly tell the old man that the princess was too arrogant.
No matter what the reason is, since King Zhennan has also ordered the expulsion of the third room of the Fang's family, this time, there is no room for change!
Mrs. Fang San humiliatedly helped Mrs. Fang San Tai stand up, and she was embarrassed to raise her head.
They walked away quickly as if they were fleeing, and naturally took Aunt Niu with them.
Nangong Yue also sent two other maids to accompany her. They said they were accompanying her, but they were actually taking care of her. After the birthday banquet, the private possession of Dongzhu should be dealt with according to law. Concerned about Marquis Anyi, this time, King Zhennan is probably going to act resolutely.
After the storm finally passed, the female relatives in the open hall had their own thoughts when they saw the good show abruptly ended.
Nangong Yue always had a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, the clouds were light and the wind was light.
"The matter just now disturbed everyone's interest. I will use tea instead of wine to tell everyone."
At the same time as she spoke, Thrush beside her handed a wine glass full of tea to her. She held the glass in both hands and drank it all at once, showing a somewhat bold temperament.
Mrs. Tian said with a smile: "Prince Concubine is being polite. If you want to blame the maid and concubine in Fang Mansion, she doesn't know how high the sky is, so what does she have to do with Concubine Shi!"
Several other ladies also echoed.
After saying sorry to the guests, Nangong Yue went back to the main hall to greet the guests.
After she left, the atmosphere in the hall gradually became lively, and no one noticed that Mrs. Qiao's expression was very strange. After the previous shock, it was replaced by suspicion, fear, and a little bit of fear... Recalling since this After my niece came to the palace, I had all kinds of confrontations with her, but I and my children never asked for any favors!
Is all this just a coincidence?
Before, she thought that her son went to Huiling City for military exploits, but now she feels like sheep entering the tiger's mouth...
Mrs. Qiao felt a burst of stuffiness in her chest, as if something pinched her heart, making her feel restless.
If it wasn't for the birthday of her younger brother, King Zhennan, she would almost have left.
"Mother," Mrs. Zhou on the right looked at Madam Qiao's unhappy face and asked cautiously, "Are you alright?"
This daughter-in-law really can't speak... Mrs. Qiao stared at her almost angrily. How could she choose such a daughter-in-law after so many choices!
At this time, several more guests were welcomed into the open hall.
A graceful and noble woman in her thirties stepped into the hall first. The woman was of medium height, with a fair and round face. Her appearance could only be regarded as delicate and graceful. A little girl, all fair-skinned and beautiful, and her appearance is 50-60% similar to that of a woman.
When they saw this woman, the expressions of many ladies in the hall were a little subtle. Among them, the ladies who were familiar with the woman immediately greeted: "Mrs. Tuesday, come and sit here."
This Tuesday Mrs. Lu is the wife of the second house of General Dingyuan's mansion. General Dingyuan's mansion is the one of General Zhou and two houses. This matter is famous in all the houses in the southern border, and the two houses are always the same. It's not in compliance with the rules, so some people who respect the rules show a bit of disdain when they see the Zhou Mansion.
Many ladies glanced at them and then withdrew their gazes, but out of the corner of their eyes, they saw a familiar figure. They saw Xiao Fei and a girl wearing a green brocade makeup and a robe came in. The girl seemed to be fourteen. Five years old, slender and tall, half a head taller than Xiao Fei, with a beautiful face, and a skin that beats frost and Sai Xue.
The two girls were walking and talking, apparently enjoying each other.
Seeing that she and Xiao Fei were so friendly, some ladies couldn't help but secretly speculate about her identity.
"...I heard that 'Jiuxiao Huanpei' is a fine piece of piano. The sound is warm and loose, pure and perfect. It has been handed down to less than ten pieces. Today, I am fortunate enough to know where one of them belongs. This is also a kind of fate." Xiao Fei sighed and said that he yearned for the peerless famous qin, but he had no jealousy towards the master of the famous qin.
The girl in the green dress smiled slightly and said, "I also saw this guqin dusty in a piano shop by chance. Although its strings were broken, I always thought it was a good piano, so I bought it back. After careful repairs, I found the lettering in the qin, and a remnant of the score, but unfortunately the remnant has been long and the handwriting is unclear, leaving only a piece of music..."
Hearing this, Xiao Fei thought of something, and said, "Miss Zhou, my sister-in-law and I also got a piece of incomplete music by chance, and it took several months to complete most of it..."
Miss Zhou? ! Hearing Xiao Fei's address to the girl, the ladies raised their eyebrows with interest. It turned out to be the eldest girl Zhou who lived in a secluded place in the big room of the Zhou family! Unlike the second room of the Zhou family who often goes out and about, the eldest room of the Zhou family has always been low-key and forbearance, and rarely attends banquets in Beppu, so these female relatives did not recognize this young lady Zhou at first.
This Zhou Da girl should also be talking about the age of marriage, no wonder... all the ladies are thoughtful.
Xiao Fei led Miss Zhou to her seat. She and this Miss Zhou knew each other as soon as they met, so she just brought people over in person. But there was still a need to entertain guests, so I couldn't wait any longer, so I went out of the hall again.
Miss Zhou sat down gracefully, ignoring the needle-like gazes of the two younger sisters, calm and composed.
Mrs. Lu was busy talking to Mrs. Wang next to her on Tuesday, and didn't care about the little thoughts of these girls.
Lu was a shrewd person. As soon as he entered the hall, he felt that the atmosphere in the hall was a little weird, so he hurriedly asked Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang told the two or three things about Aunt Niu and Dongzhu just now, and Lu Shi was stunned when she heard it. No wonder he has established a firm foothold in the palace so quickly.
As the time passed, the female relatives of the various prefectures came one after another, and the number of people in the hall became more and more lively.
When he arrived, Nangong Yue came down to the open hall surrounded by a bunch of people.
For a time, all the female relatives in the hall stood up to greet them, and a steward mama wearing a lilac-colored gourd and reed makeup Hua Beizi reminded: "Prince Prince, Concubine Wei, the auspicious time is coming!"
