In the west courtyard, Murong Xuan squatted half-crouched on the wall, squinting his peach blossom eyes and looking at the few people who entered the west courtyard from a distance. He wanted to leave the west courtyard and go back to the backyard, but he was worried about Mu Wanting's little girl.
Unable to deal with this group of people who wanted to accuse him, he stayed in the west courtyard and watched the changes, but what happened in front of him was beyond his expectation.
I saw that the maid who had bullied Mu Wanting was carried to the west courtyard by several servants. The person walking at the front was none other than Mu Wanxi, the most favored person in the General's Mansion. Looking at the situation, it didn't look like an attack on the enemy.
The slave who oppressed Mu Wanting was caught and confessed to Mu Wanting and punished.
This point made Murong Xuan startled. Of course, he knew very well that Mu Wanxi was "not interested in drinking" at this moment. She was probably coming for the poisonous decoction. He remained calm and just kept quiet.
Watching quietly, thinking that Mu Wanxi would not blatantly force the third lady to take that poisonous potion.
Uncharacteristically, Mu Wanxi came to Mu Wanting with a smile on her face and said with a bright smile: "Ting'er, this damn slave dared to arrange things behind his master's back, and even dared to falsely accuse you to his father. Fortunately, he was stopped by his second sister.
Come down, you can do whatever you want with her, lest these dog slaves, with their eyes as bright as the sky, not take the master seriously, and think that the master is easy to bully."
As soon as Mu Wanxi finished speaking, the two servants holding Caixia held Caixia in front of Mu Wanting and threw her to the ground.
Mu Wanting glanced coldly at Caixia, who was thrown to her knees on the ground, and her heart was filled with anger. She now suspected that the person who poisoned her mother's medicine was Caixia.
Caixia was originally Mu Wanxi's maid. After she and her mother moved to the West Courtyard, Mu Wanxi arranged for Caixia to come here. On the surface, she said that she was arranged to serve her, but in reality it was Mu Wanxi who arranged for her to come.
eyeliner.
Therefore, the most likely person to poison her mother's medicine is Caixia, and the person behind it is Mu Wanxi. Without Mu Wanxi's order, who would dare to poison her mother's medicine?
Even if she and her mother were not favored, they were still the third wife and young lady in the general's palace. Even if these servants did not take them seriously, they would not dare to secretly poison her mother's medicine.
She took a deep breath to calm down the anger in her heart, but her face remained calm. She showed a weak look as usual, and said softly: "Thank you, second sister. Caixia used to be the person next to the second sister, serving her."
The second sister has long been accustomed to it. It is hard to get used to it when she suddenly comes to serve my mother in the west courtyard. I think it is better to let Caixia return to the second sister and let her serve the second sister together with Cai Die. There is Ting'er on my mother's side.
Just serving is enough."
"How can this be done? You are the third lady of the General's Mansion, and the Third Concubine is the third wife of the General's Mansion. How can the two mistresses of the General's Mansion not have anyone around to take care of them? When outsiders found out about this, they thought that your father was being harsh to you and the Third Concubine.
Well, isn’t this making outsiders laugh?”
Mu Wanxi stepped forward and took Mu Wanting's hand, looking very affectionate, but her eyes fell on the medicine beside her intentionally or unintentionally.
Mu Wanting smiled softly and let Mu Wanxi hold her hand. This was the first time Mu Wanxi held her hand, but she was not happy because Mu Wanxi was affectionate with her.
, on the contrary, he was very disgusted.
In the past, no matter how Mu Wanxi and the second lady treated her and her mother, she never complained about them, hated them, or even disliked them. She only thought that she was not a concubine and her mother was not a legitimate wife. What she had suffered was,
It's all as it should be.
But now, she doesn't think so anymore. She, Mu Wanxi, is different from a concubine, and the second lady is not a legitimate wife, but why can they enjoy the treatment of a legitimate wife and legitimate daughter in the mansion.
And she and her mother are being oppressed by them. Even their legitimate daughter Mu Tianxue has been framed by them again and again. They have been oppressed by Mu Wanxi and the second lady, and they have endured the oppression of these slaves. They still want to
Let her endure it?
"Second sister taught Ting'er a lesson that she should keep in mind." Mu Wanting raised her head and looked at Mu Wanxi, and said cowardly: "Ting'er doesn't know how to discipline these slaves. Can second sister teach Ting'er a lesson?"
Let Ting'er learn, lest outsiders know that the third lady of the General's Mansion can't even teach a slave, which will ruin the reputation of the General's Mansion."
Mu Wanxi was slightly startled, but quickly covered it up. She turned back to look at Caixia who was kneeling on the ground, and said to Mu Wanting: "Ting'er, of course you must be strict with your slaves, so as to prevent them from climbing on the master's head. Every time
Whenever you make a mistake, you must follow the government rules. Whatever mistake this little slave made, he will be dealt with according to the government rules."
"That's it! Ting'er doesn't know how to deal with the following offenders. Second sister can teach her." Mu Wanting blinked her eyes and looked at Mu Wanxi, showing an expression that didn't understand anything.
She really should learn how to teach her slaves a lesson, and Mu Wanxi was very good at teaching her slaves, and she was very ruthless. Otherwise, how could she keep the slaves and guards in the mansion obedient?
"I'll commit the crime." Mu Wanxi repeated four words, glanced at Mu Wanting, and an imperceptible sneer appeared on her lips. She arranged for Caixia to come to the west courtyard to commit the crime, so that these slaves could look down on them.
However, today, she did not come to trouble Mu Wanting, nor did she come to show her off, but...she glanced at the decoction, and said sternly: "Come here, this dog slave has committed a crime below.
There is no owner in the palace. According to the rules of the palace, the dog's legs are broken and driven out of the general's palace. However, since she has been in the general's palace for decades and has always performed well, I will punish her with fifty big bans to teach her a lesson."
"Second Miss, please spare your life! This slave has neither committed any crime nor dared to commit any crime below. Please spare my life, Second Miss." Caixia shivered in shock after hearing the order given by Mu Wanxi.
Before coming to the West Courtyard, Mu Wanxi had someone hold her up, saying that she was just showing off in front of Mu Wanting and would not really deal with her. He just used her mistakes as an excuse to wait for an opportunity to see if the third lady had taken the decoction.
Now, she has to be punished with fifty big blows. If she really gets these fifty big blows, she will definitely not be able to get out of bed within a month, and her butt will be bruised and bruised.
"You still dare to quibble. If you dare to quibble, I will give you twenty more." Mu Wanxi looked coldly at Caixia, who was begging for mercy, and secretly cursed her to be unlucky, because she was destined to be a cheap slave.
She used the excuse that the slave had made a mistake and needed to be punished to see if the third lady drank the soup. Now that the soup was still boiling, she couldn't just leave the west courtyard with Caixia. She still had to do what she should do.
The excuse for punishing the slave, then just deal with it, it can only mean that Caixia is unlucky.
Hearing Mu Wanxi say that she wanted to be punished, Caixia shut her mouth honestly. It was not that she didn't know how cruel Mu Wanxi was. She had been punished many times for serving her before, but this time, she was really unjust. What she did
Everything was ordered by Mu Wanxi, but now she still had to be punished, and she felt endless grievances.
