Chapter 28: A complete defeat
In fact, the most eye-catching ones are these two. The rest are just some copper coins that were exposed as bribes, various gambling paraphernalia, and stolen pearls and jade bracelets.
The concubine's face became colder and colder, and Princess Liao's face became more and more livid.
Xin Nian breathed a sigh of relief and stopped Xinghua from talking any more, knowing that he had escaped this disaster and there was no need to resort to bitter tricks.
As for registering with Princess Liao, it doesn't matter. She won't be attached to the Liao family anyway, and it will be a matter of time before they break up. With Gu Changting's strength, as long as he is determined to protect himself and is more careful, there is nothing the other party can do.
Again, in the Prince's Mansion, Princess Liao and the Liao family cannot cover the sky with one hand.
Silence fell in the hall, and the atmosphere became terrifyingly oppressive for a moment. The kneeling slaves in the courtyard were all silent, not even daring to speak out. They were completely different from the ones who were crying and calling for injustice before.
After a long while, the concubine stood up and said calmly: "Although people like us should be treated leniently, we should not be too indulgent. Look what has become of this? If word spreads, we should not be laughed at.
Losing big teeth?”
After speaking, he looked at Xin Nian, nodded and said: "Ms.
My son, you have exposed these shortcomings in the mansion, I will definitely let Changting reward you well, and I will not let you be wronged because of this matter."
She looked at Princess Liao and said calmly: "What do you think, Princess Liao?"
"The concubine is right."
What could Princess Liao say? She was angry and scared at the same time. She could only suppress her anger in her heart, and she had to bow her head and apologize to the concubine: "It's all because the daughter-in-law is not strict with the housekeeper and frightened the concubine. These damn things
The slave and daughter-in-law must be punished in many ways as a warning."
The concubine nodded and said earnestly: "I also know that being a housekeeper is not easy, especially for a family like ours. But no matter how difficult it is, you still have to be alert at all times. You can't let the servants deceive you and let them become slack. Don't let us make the decision.
I think that my majesty is rising, and the palace is prosperous with singing and dancing, but in fact, the bottom is full of holes, so if something bad happens, it may be a disaster."
"yes."
Princess Liao bit her teeth and almost bled. The concubine learned this lesson, her face softened slightly, and she said calmly: "I'm feeling a little tired right now. Wife in Changting, please accompany me back. Aunt Xin is obviously still busy here.
, let’s not disturb her.”
Xin Nian quickly smiled and said: "It's okay. If the concubine is willing to come over, my whole yard will be full of glory."
"That's all." The concubine waved her hands, and after saying that, Mrs. Qin helped her get into the soft sedan.
Princess Liao, Princess Liao and others hurriedly followed behind and escorted the concubine out of the courtyard. Seeing the group of people leaving in a grand manner, Mrs. Liao couldn't help but look back and heard Princess Liao say coldly: "What are you looking at?
?Not enough people think it’s embarrassing?”
"yes."
Mrs. Liao felt aggrieved and useless, but Princess Liao was so angry that she didn't dare to say anything more, so she had to suppress her anger and follow Princess Liao to leave.
Seeing that the situation was not good, several aunts made excuses halfway, whispered to Ms. Liao and ran away.
Ms. Liao wished she could be like them, but she knew that as the matron of the house these years, she had no choice but to avoid it now.
That's right, although she is not the real wife, in Mrs. Liao's heart, she always thinks that she is the real mistress. As for Ms. Qin, haha! That's just a decoration.
However, this decoration, which she never looked down upon, made a strong counterattack against her and Princess Liao today.
There was a "pop" sound. Following Princess Liao's movements, a delicate vase in the upper room was swept to the ground and broke into eight petals.
This vase was very dear to Princess Liao, but it was also attacked by Chiyu at this time, which shows the anger in her heart.
Ms. Liao quietly took two steps back. After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth and knelt down, and said softly: "Auntie, calm down. All the mistakes you made are all my fault. I really didn't know that Mr.
Evidence, and I didn’t expect that the concubine would come over..."
"It's not all your incompetence that makes you..."
Princess Liao roared and turned around, and saw Liao's daughter-in-law kneeling there in the same aggrieved manner. Her heart immediately softened and she said angrily: "Who told you to kneel? Get up."
"yes."
Mrs. Liao breathed a sigh of relief, quickly stood up, helped Princess Liao sit down on the couch, and said aggrievedly: "Actually, when I saw those few gold ornaments, I had an idea in mind. I originally wanted to set up a trap for Mrs. Xin."
The charges were all that she had deliberately planned to harm people. Damn that old lady Fang, she couldn’t hold her breath. Before I could say anything, she jumped out and admitted it herself, in front of the concubine.
What should I do?"
Princess Liao frowned and said: "You are also fanciful. So many things were framed by the Xin family? Just say this to fool me. How can you fool me in front of Changting? Although this time it was the Xin family who made things so messy.
Yes, but those slaves are really shameful. Do you know about their gambling, drinking and stealing activities?"
Ms. Liao was silent for a moment and then said softly: "If the water is clear, there will be no fish. There are hundreds of slaves in Prince Duan's palace, how can they behave themselves everywhere? I know they gamble and drink, but as long as they don't cause trouble, I don't want to
The ban is too strict, but I never expected that now even thieves are out, but fortunately they are still measured, and they stole things from the mother and daughter..."
"That won't work either."
Princess Liao glared at Mr. Liao and said solemnly: "Although I despise the two of them, no matter what, they are still masters, and this dignity cannot be reversed."
"yes."
Mrs. Liao agreed, only to hear Princess Liao say bitterly: "The thieving slaves can no longer be kept, they will be expelled immediately, and the others will also be severely punished. Since they are all in the eyes of the concubine, then she must be given a
Explain."
"But my aunt has been severely punished, so they will inevitably have resentment in their hearts..."
"So what? If I have any resentment, it's not against you. Every injustice has its own owner, and every debt has its own owner. Let them hate whoever gives them this end."
Liao's face turned green and red, and she knew in her heart: It's not that simple at all. Although these people will hate Xin Nian, after this incident, she can't protect the minions who are attached to her, which is also a big blow to her majesty.
A blow. What's even more hateful is that Xin Nian may take this opportunity to rise to power.
She expressed her worries, but Princess Liao didn't seem to care, and said leisurely: "Let her take the position, as the saying goes, the more you do, the more you make mistakes. If you don't give her something to take care of, how can you take advantage of her mistakes?
Could it be that the face I lost in that yard today was all in vain?"
"yes."
