Pei Lin immediately gave the order: "Nanli, go and bring this person over."
Just as Nan Li was about to respond, Li Xiuzhu stood up and knelt down to speak.
"Your Majesty, I saw something wrong with a maid who was serving the princess tea, so I caught her. I don't know if this maid is Xiao Hong."
Pei Lin immediately ordered: "Go and bring this person over."
Li Xiuzhu stood up and walked out, and soon brought in a maid. The maid kept struggling: "What are you doing? Let me go. This is Muyang Houfu. How dare you catch me? Let me go."
Pei Lin didn't ask anyone else, only asked Xiao Qi: "Is this Xiao Hong?"
Xiaoqi glanced quickly and nodded: "It's her."
As soon as Xiaoqi finished speaking, outside the crowd, Dongli led two people and escorted a man in. This man was wearing tattered clothes, his hair was knotted, and his face was dirty. At first glance, he looked like a beggar.
beggar.
"Your Majesty, there is a beggar hiding under the bed in the east bedroom in the courtyard next door."
Pei Lin's face was ashen.
There was silence all around. If things have come to this stage, what is still unclear is that Wang Zhenzhen of Muyanghou Mansion and Lu Qing, the second lady of Dongning Bo Mansion, did this.
Not only did they drug Fengjing, they also found a beggar.
This idea is really too vicious, even if it is just to find a clean servant, it would be too embarrassing.
Pei Lin's whole body was full of anger, and he turned around to look at Muyang Hou Wang Mingshan with cold eyebrows: "Master Hou, how disdainful is this king that he did such a despicable thing to my princess."
Wang Mingshan looked very ugly. He did not expect that this matter would involve his daughter.
At this moment, Wang Mingshan couldn't help but suspect that Princess Feng Yi had done this deliberately.
Because the eldest son Wang Yuanzhou was not born to her, and Wang Yuanzhou got married, she felt unhappy, so it was normal for her to take action to cause some trouble.
However, Wang Mingshan looked at Princess Feng Yi, saw her pale face, and suddenly understood that even if Princess Feng Yi wanted to cause trouble again, she would never use her only daughter to cause trouble, so this matter was Wang Zhenzhen's own idea.
Anger surged in Wang Mingshan's chest. This evil girl, today is her brother's wedding day, and she dared to do such a thing on such a day.
Is this intentional?
Wang Mingshan's stern eyes shot towards Wang Zhenzhen.
Wang Zhenzhen was frightened when she saw her father's eyes, and subconsciously shrank behind Princess Feng Yi.
But even if she hid behind Princess Feng Yi, Wang Mingshan did not spare her lightly.
"Come here, take the young lady down and beat her twenty times."
Although today is an occasion like this, it is not appropriate to make any changes.
But Wang Mingshan knew that if he didn't give Pei Lin an explanation, Pei Lin wouldn't give up.
Wang Mingshan's men heard Wang Mingshan's order and walked behind Princess Feng Yi.
Princess Feng Yi looked pale and stretched out her hand to stop Wang Mingshan's men: "Who dares to beat my daughter?"
Wang Zhenzhen begged in fright: "Mom, save me, I don't want to be beaten, I don't want to be beaten."
Princess Feng Yi reached out and held her daughter's hand. She raised her head and looked at Pei Lin with pleading eyes: "Pei Lin, can you forgive me for once?"
Pei Lin twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and said slowly: "Okay."
After he finished speaking, Princess Feng Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
Pei Lin turned around and looked at Wang Mingshan: "Wang Zhenzhen can be forgiven for being young and ignorant, but the Lord Hou has to give me an explanation for this matter. The Princess was recognized by His Majesty's decree, so the Lord Hou followed the King into the palace to His Majesty's palace.
It is up to Your Majesty to decide this matter before you."
Wang Mingshan, Marquis of Muyang, felt his scalp numb when he heard Pei Lin's words.
Previously, Feng Liancheng, the Marquis of Zhennan, was reprimanded three times by His Majesty because of his substitute marriage. Even so, His Majesty obviously did not treat the Marquis of Zhennan as well as before.
If he brings this matter before His Majesty, I am afraid that His Majesty also dislikes seeing him.
Naturally, Wang Mingshan didn't want to risk his own future, so he ordered his subordinates with a sullen face: "Bring the people down to fight."
Pei Lin raised her eyebrows and looked at Muyang Hou Wang Mingshan, but she didn't expect that he had no father-daughter affection for this daughter at all.
If there is a father-daughter relationship, he will definitely not order someone to beat his daughter. If he enters the palace with him, the most he will be reprimanded by His Majesty.
He made some articles about this matter.
Pei Lin turned around and looked at Princess Feng Yi: "Aunt, it's not me who doesn't forgive Zhenzhen, it's the Marquis who doesn't forgive Zhenzhen."
Princess Feng Yi's face turned even paler. She turned around and looked at Mu Yanghou, and spoke with a pleading voice.
"Master Hou, it's me who didn't teach Zhenzhen well. I will teach her well and will never let her get into trouble again in the future."
It's a pity that Mu Yanghou didn't pay attention to this. If Wang Zhenzhen was a man, he would still be considerate, but he didn't take a girl seriously and would only use it to marry and support his son in the future.
Wang Mingshan said with a stern face: "How dare she, a girl, do such a shameless thing. Without punishment, it will not be enough to convince the public. What will others say about me, Muyang Houfu, in the future?"
He didn't want to say anything anymore and ordered his men: "Take the man down and beat him."
The subordinate stopped for a moment, walked over, grabbed Wang Zhenzhen, and left.
Wang Zhenzhen shouted in horror: "I don't want to hit the wall, no, mother, save me, save me."
Princess Feng Yi was heartbroken when she saw her frightened daughter.
A feeling of hatred arose in her heart, Wang Mingshan, I will remember today's humiliation. You have made it difficult for me and Zhenzhen, and I will never make it easy for you.
Princess Feng Yi did not object anymore and followed her daughter out.
In the backyard, Wang Mingshan looked at Pei Lin: "Your Majesty, Zhenzhen has been punished. Can we just let this matter go by?"
Pei Lin nodded slightly: "Since the punishment of the Lord Marquis is real, if I say anything else, it will appear that I am unreasonable and unforgiving, so let this matter be over."
After he finished speaking, before Mu Yanghou could speak, he continued: "However, the princess is like this, and I am not suitable to stay. I will take her back to the palace first. As for the other people who plot against the princess, I will leave it to the prince."
Disposed of."
After Pei Lin finished speaking, he ordered Li Xiuzhu: "Help the princess and return to the palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Xiuzhu responded and went up to help Fengjing.
At this time, Feng Jing had been stabbed by Xi Li, and she felt better. She took Li Xiuzhu's arm, got up, and left behind Pei Lin.
Behind the crowd, Muyanghou Wang Mingshan looked at Pei Lin's back with cold eyes.
Previously, he couldn't figure out why Pei Lin came to his Muyang Hou Mansion. Now it seems that this person came here to plot against him.
Although he didn't know what he was planning, it certainly wasn't a good thing.
Wang Mingshan looked at Pei Lin with vicious eyes, "Do you think I'm easy to bully? Just wait for me."
Pei Lin took Feng Jing to the front yard of Muyang Houfu. On the way, she saw Wang Zhenzhen being hit with a board by the servants of the Houfu. In fact, the board may not have been heavy, but how could Wang Zhenzhen, who had grown up pampered and pampered, bear it? She cried and screamed.
"Mom, it hurts. Please ask them to stop. Ask them to stop."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Dad, why did he let someone hit me? Am I not his daughter? I am the legitimate daughter of Muyang Houfu. I know that he doesn't like me, he only likes my brother."
"Mom, why am I not a boy? If I were a boy, I would be the heir apparent."
"Obviously I should be the county boss, but my father stopped this."
