Splendid spring returns

Chapter 27 The evidence is here
Not to mention Concubine Liao and the Liao family, even Xin Nian was taken aback: the matter has developed so far, and the reactions of all parties are within her expectations, and even Concubine Liao will definitely send her off, and she is also mentally prepared.

The pain of flesh and blood is nothing, if she is really beaten, she can sell herself miserably in front of Gu Changting and pave the way for the future.

In short, since she got this opportunity, she must use all aspects to squeeze out all the value. The more she pays, the greater the harvest will be.

However, she did not expect that the concubine, who had been living in Shouning Palace for many years, would get involved.

The concubine is obviously here to deal with Princess Liao, if it is against herself, Princess Liao alone is enough, there is no need for her old man to do it herself.

For a moment, Xin Nian's thoughts changed. She remembered that the princess and the empress dowager belonged to the Liao family. The concubine might not be pleasing to her daughter-in-law. There is a reason, she thinks that the old man should not mind taking the opportunity to beat the princess.

After thinking about it for a while, Concubine Liao and others have already greeted him.Xin Nian was about to get up, but after thinking about it, she retracted her lifted body, quietly avoided it, and still knelt there.

Sure enough, as soon as the concubine entered, she looked at her in surprise and said, "What do you mean? I even mentioned your territory, but you didn't go out to meet me? So you were kneeling here. What's the matter? There's still a place in the yard Those slaves, I just have nothing to do, I want to exercise my muscles and bones, and I will come to see the two children, I never imagined that your place is so lively."

This is talking nonsense, the concubine wants to see the child, so why come here in person?Just send someone to order, and immediately lead them over.

Just who dares to tear it apart?Concubine Liao lowered her head and finally suppressed the anger in her eyes and regained her calm face. Then she heard Xin Nian say in a deep voice, "Returning to the concubine, the concubine has offended the concubine and grandma, so I knelt down to plead guilty. Order, dare not get up, and hope that the empress dowager will forgive me."

Princess Liao: ...

Liao Shi: ...

The concubine then looked at Concubine Liao and said indifferently: "Is there anything I can't say properly? You will be punished to kneel at every turn. Now that I'm here, the concubine will be accommodating and tell her to get up. If it's really an unforgivable crime, I will forgive it." Don't let her be presumptuous."

Concubine Liao's face was flushed, and she quickly lowered her head and said, "What did the concubine say? I also said a few words to her in anger. I didn't expect this child to be so sincere, but he kept kneeling. I don't know, I thought it was me. She's an evil mother-in-law."

The concubine smiled slightly, and was supported by Mrs. Qin beside her to sit down at the main seat, then glanced casually at Mrs. Liao, and said indifferently: "Although General Xin is not safe at the end of the day, the family style of the Xin family has always been strict. , This child is honest and not a day or two, does the princess know?"

"It's a bit of a surprise indeed."

The concubine gritted her teeth and could only swallow the blood, and came to sit down opposite the concubine.She knew that today's affairs were out of control, and she might be a little embarrassed by the concubine and Xin's joint slap in the face.

Thinking of this, he took a deep look at Qin Shi, only to see that she was standing beside the concubine, looking at Xin Nian, full of concern.

Sure enough, she was the demon.The concubine's face darkened, and then she heard the concubine wondering: "What are you doing in this yard? Why are there so many slaves kneeling?"

The boss personally opened his mouth to give you a chance to defend yourself, shouldn't you seize it quickly?So Xin Nian immediately stepped forward and explained the matter in detail.

I only heard the concubine muttering: "So that's the case. Alas! I often hear that in other honorable mansions, because the master treats you leniently, the slaves are unreasonably indulged. Don't underestimate these, thinking that slaves can What kind of waves are caused? But I don’t know that the right and wrong of the tongue is second, the most hateful thing is the carelessness of gambling, drinking and drinking, mistakes everywhere, planting hidden dangers, and it will lead to catastrophe at any time. What’s more Or, no matter how powerful the servants are, they will steal things and bully their masters. If this unhealthy trend is not stopped in time, who knows what will happen in the future? Today is a poisonous snake. Let the thieves in."

The concubine said so, who would dare to refute?The princess is only obliged to promise.

At this time, I heard Xin Nian say: "I tell the concubine, the concubine, the concubine is also thinking about these things, so I don't let go of any clues when I ask, and I know that these servants are lowly, but they are full of bad deeds, so I ordered people to search. to their residence."

Having said that, she turned her head and told Xinghua, "Have someone bring up all the things they found."

"Yes."

Xinghua agreed, and with a wave of her hand, soon several women came in carrying two large wooden boxes.

Concubine Tai and others looked over and saw that the two wooden boxes were divided into more than 30 grids, and each grid contained several things.

Liao shi just took a look, then took a deep breath, only to feel that her eyes went dark for a while.

Sure enough, the next moment, Xinghua pointed to the first grid and said: "This is what was found in Mama Sang's room last night. Please take a look, Princess Toffee. There are three kinds of gambling equipment alone, Pai Gow dice horse hanging, There are more than a dozen jars of good wine in her room, which take up a lot of space, so they are not brought in, they are all placed outside the courtyard, and there are more than a dozen jars of money suspected of gambling..."

Concubine Toffee and Concubine Liao looked ashen.

Xinghua pointed to another grid and continued: "This is something from Mother Fang's house. Someone came out to expose it, saying that three pieces of gold jewelry were stolen from Aunt Qin and the third girl's house. I haven't had time to verify it yet." .”

Aunt Qin is the concubine of Prince Duan, and the third girl is her daughter. The mother and daughter are afraid of Princess Liao and don't go out easily. They are like transparent people in the palace.

Xin Nian looked at Concubine Liao from the corner of her eye, and it was rare to see the corners of the concubine's mouth twitch: Aunt Qin and the third girl are of low status, there are gold jewelry in the house, needless to say, it was naturally given by Prince Duan, which shows that Aunt Qin Although her status is humble, she is still favored by the prince. .

Liao's mind was spinning quickly, and she immediately came up with a solution, but before she could speak, Fang's mother, guilty of fear, yelled, "The old slave is wronged, it's not Aunt Qin's jewelry, it's the old slave's jewelry." I made it and prepared it for my daughter to wear."

"Wear it for your daughter?" A smile flashed across Xin Nian's face, "Can your daughter wear this jewelry?"

Mother Fang blushed, and the plum blossom gold hairpin was inlaid with a pearl the size of a finger belly, which was not jewelry that a slave woman could wear, so she changed her words because she was busy: "Old slave... this old slave is going to give it away... "

"enough."

The concubine said coldly: "Since it belongs to Aunt Qin, I will send someone to send it back later. What else? Report it all, and open our eyes to see how these submissive servants are doing everything behind their backs." What kind of trick?"
