As soon as the two of them walked out of the garden, they saw Butler Shi walking forward with a sullen face, followed by two powerful servants.
The foreigner has almost entered the backyard. Normally, Aunt Wu would make some comments. But in the past two days, people from various yamen came in turns. Yesterday, some officials from the Supervisory Yuan and the Ministry of Punishment came to ask questions, and today there is another one from Beijing Zhao
From the Mansion and Dali Temple. Although the person in front of me is not wearing official uniform, but judging from his demeanor, he must have a higher official position than the previous ones.
Aunt Wu doesn't have time to care about this now, it's more important to help the master with things.
Linglong felt the natal Gu on Nanny Wu, and instantly became excited: Huh? There is meat to eat!
Mingruo calmly tugged on Si Haochen's sleeve to remind him that there was a problem with this group of people.
Although Si Haochen didn't know that there were bugs on Nanny Wu, he could tell that something was wrong with Butler Shi. They had just met, and he didn't even change his clothes. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for Butler Shi not to recognize him. Now.
But like a wooden stake, there must be something wrong with it.
Just as the two parties were about to pass each other, Si Haochen said: "Shi Wang."
Steward Shi didn't seem to hear Prince Yun calling him at all, and kept walking forward blankly. Chu Yi blocked Steward Shi's way with his unsheathed sword.
After being stopped, Butler Shi suddenly became a little excited and used all his strength to pull the sword in front of him.
On the first day of the new year, he saw his master's gesture and knocked out Butler Shi with one palm.
Aunt Wu was now anxious: "My lord, why do you want to hurt people?"
"The prince asked him to ask questions, but he turned a deaf ear. This is a serious crime of contempt for the royal family, and everyone in the Shi family will be involved." Mingruo Youyou said, "Are you doing this publicly or privately?"
A slight smile flashed in Si Haochen's eyes. This charge was quite good, but what about 'public' or 'private'...
When Aunt Wu and the other woman heard that it was the prince, they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.#@$&
She was even more eloquent: "We have blind eyes and cannot see Mount Tai. It would be disrespectful to have never met the prince..."
"Even if you have never met the prince, is it your Shi Mansion's rule to not be polite when meeting distinguished guests? Besides, Butler Shi has already met the prince, so it is even more sinful!" Ming Ruo continued, "Also,
If you don’t call the master who is in charge of the family, you can give the prince an explanation!"
Aunt Wu quickly begged for mercy: "Master guard, you don't know something. All the masters in our house who can take charge have been kidnapped by thieves. Now there really is no one to make the decision."
"Are you... sure...?" Mingruo's voice was not loud at all, but Nanny Wu felt that every word hit her heart, making her feel inexplicably palpitating. (Linglong: Give you some.
Just a reminder to you about the coercion. If it weren’t for the fact that your natal Gu is ‘suppressing’ it to death and it doesn’t taste good, there is still a higher level of king’s coercion.)
Aunt Wu tried her best to hide the viciousness in her eyes, and she could also keep her mouth low: "Please be more careful, Your Majesty! Please atone for your sins!"%&(&
"Since no one can take charge of the matter, then 'keeping it private' is definitely out of the question." A hint of slyness flashed in Mingruo's eyes, "The young minister of Dali Temple is handling the case in the front yard. On the first day of the new year, go ask Mr. Chu, he is in charge of this matter
No matter. If he doesn't care,
You go to the Ministry of Punishment to report the case. Those who "despise the royal family" will definitely not be able to escape by confiscating their homes and exterminating their clans. Now that their "clan" is nowhere to be found, it is only right to confiscate their homes first. These unscrupulous slaves in the province have taken away all their property and even their family.
No need to copy..."
"Yes." Chu Yi took the order and left.
Mingruo looked around and spotted the small pavilion not far away: "My lord, please go to that pavilion to rest for a while and wait for Mr. Chu to come."
Aunt Wu is not afraid of annihilation. Anyway, even if she is annihilated, she will not be able to kill her master. But this cannot be done by 'raiding the family'. All the money and real estate of the Shi family must belong to the master! She cannot suppress the resentment in her eyes at all, and can only hang her head.
Not moving.
A burst of hurried footsteps came from far away, and from a distance, a "splendid" woman could be seen, supporting a maid, followed by three or five maids, walking quickly - just after hearing the wind, she hurried
Aunt Gui is here.
"A common woman came to see the prince." Aunt Gui heard the news from the little girl and said that Butler Shi had contradicted the prince.
She now regrets that although people have been coming and going in the past two days, because they are the victims, the officials never go in or out of the backyard. When something happens, they always ask people to go to the front yard to ask questions. If she had known that she would bump into the prince, she would have waited until night to close the door
At the gate of the house, control the steward Shi and open the warehouse to collect the money.
I don’t know which prince this is. If he is concerned about the Shi family’s property, I’m afraid this will not be a good thing.
Ming Ruo stood behind Si Haochen and secretly looked at this woman - she had a high bun and a set of gilt and burnt blue gemstones on her head. She was wearing a peach red coat with silver on the upper body and Lingshui on the lower body.
She wore a satin pleated skirt and a gold tassel necklace inlaid with emeralds around her neck.
This woman was dressed up to be very noble, but her appearance was a bit unsatisfactory. Even with exquisite makeup, she was still very mediocre and had no qualifications to be a concubine.
Si Haochen didn't let her get up and let her continue to kneel. It was said that this aunt who was not in good health was not only walking fast. The master of the family was missing, but she was still in the mood to wear so many jewelry on her body. It was not a big deal after thinking about it.
Chu Chenzhou was invited from the front yard on the first day of the new year, and Mingruo could already hear the footsteps of the two of them from a distance.
Aunt Gui has a natal Gu, and her five senses are naturally very sensitive. Although the sin of "contempting the royal family" is serious, as long as the prince does not pursue it, it should be able to turn into a major matter and a trivial matter.
"Your Majesty." Aunt Gui suddenly raised her head, her eyes as dark as ink, as if there was a vortex that could drag people into it. She shook her head gently, and the tassels on her head swayed rhythmically...
Thinking of the 'Peacock Walking', Mingruo's alarm suddenly went off - she remembered that when Mr. Shi was hit by the soul-stealing spell for the first time, he said he saw a Peacock Walking.
Mingruo reached out to pull Si Haochen, wanting to remind him not to fall for the trap.
Naturally, Aunt Wu couldn't let this shabby guard disturb Miss Xiang from performing the spell, so she released her natal poison in a swish, and went straight to the center of Mingruo's eyebrows.
Si Haochen originally wanted to see how far this woman's control skills were, but that naughty slave dared to attack his wife. He had no intention of testing. His pupils shrank and he broke through the control skills. A piece popped out easily.
Break the silver into pieces and knock off the poisonous insects.
Aunt Gui originally thought she had succeeded and relaxed her vigilance. However, unexpectedly, the control technique was violently broken, and a huge backlash hit her chest like a giant hammer. She couldn't even kneel down, so she fell back and sat down.
Aunt Wu's Gu insect was hit by the broken silver. She was a little confused at first, but soon got frightened and ran wildly in the direction of Aunt Wu.
When Linglong attacked Mommy, she opened her mouth wide, waiting for Rourou to pop into her mouth. Unexpectedly, she was knocked away by Ba Ba. She was secretly glad that she didn't attack her, otherwise her teeth would have been damaged.
Ba Ba was knocked out. No, I seem to have no teeth...
