After hearing this, Zhou Yong roughly understood that Wu De must have disrespected the Niu Hulu family first, so it was not a big deal to cause this turmoil, but now that it has been put on the table, it is necessary to say that he is ugly.
.Thinking of this, he glanced at the expressionless Ling Ruo, secretly guessing that she would
His purpose of calling her was different from that of the dog. He didn't have much contact with the Niu Hulu family, but he also knew that this lady had always been kind to others when she was in the house. Even if she was disrespectful, she would laugh it off and she would never be unkind to others when she was in power.
How could she not let go this time? Could it be that... she wanted to use this to establish her authority?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible, and Wu De was from Tong Fujin, so he knew why the Niu Hulu clan was deposed. Alas, neither side could afford to offend him, and he, a slave, was caught in the middle.
After waiting for a while without seeing him speaking, Ling Ruo stroked the tassel on her skirt and said calmly: "How about it, has Supervisor Zhou thought about it?"
This call of "Master Zhou" made Zhou Yong tremble with fear. He heard the dissatisfaction hidden in this indifference, and knew that he had to make a decision quickly. His mind was spinning very fast. It was impossible for him to please both sides today.
Okay, that’s it, let’s take a gamble!
Zhou Yong gritted his teeth, turned around and slapped Wu De's intact half of his cheek with a big slap, beating Wu De until he couldn't find anything to do. He didn't know what kind of bad luck he had today. He was beaten by two people one after another.
It was fine before, but my face was swollen. This time I opened my mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood with broken teeth.
"Zhou... Zhou Da is in charge of you..." Wu De came to his senses with a face full of disbelief. He covered his face and wanted to say something vaguely, but was interrupted by another merciless slap from Zhou Yong.
"You slave, you are so brave, you dare to contradict my wife, you are really impatient!" Zhou Yong couldn't help but scolded, and before he could carry out the Tong Jia family's giant Buddha, he said to the people who had been standing beside him:
"Why don't you hurry up and tie this blind slave to me and hang him to a tree outside. Let him reflect on his life up there. No one is allowed to let him down without my order."
Zhou Yong's words were much more effective than Ling Ruo's words just now. Almost as soon as they fell, several strong servants came out and coaxed Wu De, who was screaming, to the ground. They took hemp ropes to hold him down.
He was tied tightly to a big rice dumpling
In the past, Wu De used Tong Jia's name to do a lot of arrogance in the kitchen and even in the garden. The people under him just dared to get angry but dare not speak out. Now when they see him in trouble, they all gloat and no one can help him to speak.
.
Especially after those people tied him up, they didn't let him stand up. They dragged him out by the collar. There was a row of kapok trees planted outside the kitchen. They were very tall. It was the time when the kapok trees were in bloom.
Orange-red flowers larger than a woman's hand are clustered at the top, in the middle
There are dense yellow stamens in the middle. As the spring breeze blows, kapok falls from the top of the tree from time to time. The petals gather together and fall to the ground while spinning all the way. The fallen flowers are colorful under the tree, and they do not fade even after they have fallen for several days.
No sluggishness is seen, and it blooms in the hustle and bustle of the world for a long time.
Separated between the kitchen and the kapok tree was a hexagonal stone path. The pain of his skin scratching on the sharp stones made Wu De scream like a pig, and shouted to Zhou Yong desperately, "I am Tong Fujin."
People! You can’t do this to me!”
Zhou Yong didn't say anything, he just motioned for people to hang him up. Since he had offended him, there was no mercy left. The kapok tree was several feet high, and several people worked together to hang Wu De up, which was the first time in his life.
The feeling of Wu De falling and hanging in the air frightened Wu De, and he screamed at the top of his lungs to let him down.
Zhou Yong didn't look at him at all. He only respectfully said to Ling Ruo who got up and walked outside: "Madam, are you satisfied with this treatment?"
Ling Ruo glanced at him sideways, and suddenly smiled like a hundred flowers blooming, "You are the person next to Fourth Master, so you are naturally safe and sound in doing things. How could I be dissatisfied?" As she said this, she took the food in Mo Yu's hand.
He said: "It's getting late, I should go to Changchun Garden."
What kind of place is Changchun Garden? Today, the imperial garden is used to avoid noise and listen to government affairs. It is heavily guarded. Even the ministers have to obey orders before they can enter. But now there is no order or edict, but Niu Hulu said that he wanted to go to Changchun Garden.
, what this means no one needs to say Zhou
Yong also knew. At this moment, Zhou Yong was glad that he had made a wise decision. Maybe the Niu Hulu family was inferior now, but no one could tell in the future. After all, the fourth master personally picked her up from the other courtyard.
After all, the current Holy Emperor has a special regard for her...
Thinking of this, Zhou Yong's attitude immediately became more attentive, "Madam, would you like me to prepare a sedan for you? We are still more than a mile away from Changchun Garden."
Ling Ruo did not refuse his kindness, nodded and said: "Then it's a good job."
After Zhou Yong left, Ling Ruo paused as he passed by Wu De. He stopped and looked up at Wu De who was shouting. The spring scenery was beautiful, and the sun was shining brightly on the ground.
She smiled, but there was no trace of smile in her eyes, only the frosty coldness that only Jiuhan genius could have...
When he met those eyes, Wu De shuddered involuntarily, and his voice gradually became quieter. He was obviously a weak woman, but why did he feel a sense of powerlessness?
Even after Ling Ruo left, Wu De still had lingering fears...
In the past, she was able to manipulate the Mao brothers in the most desperate situation. What's more, if she can't even deal with a mere Wu De, how can she be qualified to return to Prince Yong's Mansion to regain what she lost!
Everything has just begun...
With the words passed down by Kangxi last night, Ling Ruo had no problem in Changchun Garden. When she arrived at Chunhui Hall, she learned that Kangxi had not yet gone to court. The one guarding here was Sixi, Li Dequan's apprentice, who had met in the palace.
.
Although Kangxi was not in the Forbidden City, he still went to court every day and did not slack off.
Si Xi brought tea and four-colored snacks to Ling Ruo, and said softly: "Madam, wait a moment, the emperor will come after the court." After saying this, he went about his business.
After waiting for a while, Ling Ruo didn't see Kangxi coming. He was afraid that the soup in the purple clay pot would cool down and the effect would be much worse if he reheated it, so he asked the waiter in Chunhui Hall to find a basin of freshly boiled hot water and put it in the pot.
The whole purple clay pot is immersed in it.
After waiting like this for another half an hour, Kangxi, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, strode in. Ling Ruo stood up in a hurry to greet him. After resting all night, Kangxi's complexion became much better, not as gloomy as last night.
"You came early." Kangxi seemed to be in a good mood. He smiled, sat down in the chair, pointed to the purple clay pot soaked in the copper basin and said, "Is this the elixir you said can cure my chronic diseases?"
"I don't dare to call it a panacea, it's just a small folk remedy." Ling Ruo opened the lid with a smile, carefully scooped out the purple sand book in an enamel-painted porcelain bowl with a silver spoon and handed it to Kangxi who had cleaned his hands.
It has the effect of keeping warm, and in addition, it is immersed in boiling water, so it is still slightly hot even after a long time.
