When Qing'er said this, she stopped and carefully looked at Wei Zijin's expression.
However, Wei Zijin just raised his eyebrows slightly and asked calmly: "Really? What trouble can you get if you are locked up in the ancestral hall to think about your past?"
"The third lady was crying and making a fuss in the ancestral hall for a while, clamoring to see Lord Shangshu, and then she was about to rush out. After being stopped by the guards, she frantically tried to hit a pillar and die. Fortunately, she was stopped by the guards. Later she returned
She felt that the effort was not enough, so she even took up the memorial tablets of Lord Shangshu’s ancestors in the ancestral hall and threatened the slaves, saying that if they did not let her go out to see Lord Shangshu, she would smash those memorial tablets!”
Qing'er gloomily recounted Lu Xiyun's troubles one by one. At the end of the story, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and secretly sighed that this third lady was a mistress who was used to making troubles.
It’s true that these three ladies didn’t make enough trouble in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple and actually dared to make a big fuss in the ancestral hall. If they really caused any trouble, Master Shangshu would not spare them as slaves!
Wei Zijin listened quietly to everything Qing'er described. When he heard that Lu Xiyun dared to threaten the guards with destroying the spiritual throne, a sneer flashed across his face and he said in a deep voice: "Since she is making such a fuss, you will die."
The guards tied her hands to see how she would smash those spiritual tablets!"
"This..." Qing'er was stunned, not expecting Wei Zijin to give such an order, and said hesitantly: "But Lord Shangshu only ordered the servant to lock her in the ancestral hall, and did not allow the servant to tie the hands and feet of the third lady. Without Lord Shangshu's instructions,
I don’t dare to do this!”
"Then do you think, for Lord Shangshu, which one is more important, the spiritual status of the deceased ancestors, or the third lady?" Wei Zijin asked lightly.
Qing'er did not hesitate this time: "Of course the spiritual position is important!"
Lord Shangshu is a well-known filial son. He pays homage to his ancestors every year. He also kept his filial piety for three years and refrained from sexual intercourse with women. For this, he was praised by the emperor. Therefore, in the heart of Lord Shangshu, the status of the ancestral hall and the spiritual throne cannot be replaced by anyone!
What's more, the third lady committed a crime and violated Lord Shangshu's bottom line!
"Then you do as I told you. It's enough to tie her hands. By the way, give her a message. Her feet are not tied. If she repented in front of the ancestor's memorial tablet and died by hitting the pillar,
, the ancestors may forgive her when she gets to the underground Shangshu Mansion..."
After Wei Zijin said this coldly, he saw the young man Qing'er looking at him blankly, as if his figure had been frozen, thinking that he did not understand what he said, and then said: "Don't worry, she doesn't have the guts to really hit her.
He died on the pillar, just follow my instructions, I will explain it to you when Master Shangshu comes back!"
Qing'er nodded as if she had just woken up from a dream, quickly followed the order and left, taking a few guards with her, and hurried towards the ancestral hall with the rope.
Wei Zijin then showed a satisfied smile, picked up the tea cup presented by Huan'er, and took a sip of hot tea, with a leisurely and graceful look, as if nothing happened today!
The second lady Lin Xueyao, who had been sitting aside and watching all this, was deeply shocked when she heard Wei Zijin's words.
Now she is just glad that although she has a close relationship with Lu Xiyun and knows what Lu Xiyun has done, she has not been involved in Lu Xiyun's schemes, otherwise the eldest lady Wei Zijin will definitely not let her go!
