Resourceful beauty

Chapter 7
"Sister Mei..."

Fang Ruxuan called out happily.

"Sister Ruxuan, is it really you?"

The woman's beautiful face was revealed in the tight plain brocade cloak, seeing Fang Ruxuan clearly, the woman exclaimed in surprise.

Behind the woman, Wang Gui followed.

Seeing that Miss Governor really knew Fang Ruxuan, Wang Gui felt more and more happy, and the two silver ingots in his sleeves seemed to be full of heat, which made him feel warm in his heart.

In Wang Gui's view, Fang Ruxuan is now his cash cow, not only making money for him, but also attracting people who give him money.

"Miss Chen, there is only a quarter of an hour's delay. Hurry up, the little one will go outside and guard."

After nodding and bowing, Wang Gui turned and went out, while putting the lantern at the feet of the two of them thoughtfully.

"Sister Mei, do you have any news about my father and the others? What's going on outside?"

Holding Chen Mei's outstretched hand, Fang Ruxuan asked eagerly.

There are five prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Funan City. Fuyang is a fortress town directly under Funan City. Chen Mei is the daughter of the Fuyang governor's family. People are old friends.

In the capital, Su's Mansion and Chen's Mansion are also very close.

When Fang Ruxuan was young, whenever Fang Ruxuan went to her grandfather's house, she would run into Chen Mei who was visiting with her grandparents. After coming and going, the two became acquainted and gradually became handkerchief friends.

Chen Mei loves poetry and books, but has the least tolerance for embroidery. Whenever she sees Fang Ruxuan sitting in front of the window quietly doing embroidery work, she is envious.

Fang Ruxuan still remembered that that year, Chen Mei, who was ten years old, whispered to her, saying that she always went to the embroidery building outside to buy embroidered handbags for her mother, assuming that she embroidered them, so as to cope with errands.

"After all, I'm going to be a young mistress in the future, so why don't you let me do embroidery by myself?"

Not shy at all, Chen Mei said triumphantly.

During the years of friendship, Fang Ruxuan often gave Chen Mei the things she embroidered by herself. Chen Mei also said that if Fang Ruxuan's embroidery was not so good, she would have handed over the things Fang Ruxuan gave her.

In the previous life, I knew that I was imprisoned in the prison of Funan City, and Chen Mei also came to visit me like now, but at that time, I was already on the way to Ningbei, and before I left Fuyang City, Chen Mei came to visit me. After stopping the carriage, although he only said a few words, the words were full of deep concern.

In this life, with the changes in the world, there is absolutely no way for Chen Mei to enter the prison to meet Fang Ruxuan, so Fang Ruxuan came up with such a way to try to contact Chen Mei.

Sure enough, starting from the brocade purse, Wang Gui was followed by the shopkeeper of Xiulou.

Then, when the embroiderer was not willing to pick up the forehead wipe and warm hat, the shopkeeper thought of Wang Gui.

The fifth day of the first lunar month is Mrs. Chen's birthday. With Chen Mei's filial piety, a birthday gift must be prepared. In this case, the clothes made by herself are indispensable.

When Chen Mei got the forehead wipe, she knew it was Fang Ruxuan's handwriting. Wanting to get to know this person with outstanding embroidery skills, Chen Mei met Fang Ruxuan through Wang Gui.

"Don't worry, King Qi and your brother are fine now."

After reporting safety, Chen Mei told Fang Ruxuan all the news she heard these days.

"King Qi has worked hard and made great contributions to the court over the years. Therefore, some courtiers in the court still expressed doubts about the denunciation of Prince Qi's mansion this time. The Holy Majesty has already handed over the matter to Dali Temple. Later, those letters also They were sent to the imperial court, and compared with others, although there are eight or nine points of similarity, it is not the letter written by King Qi himself."

"The letter was overturned as physical evidence, and then the 500 million taels of silver. King Qi said in front of the saint that he didn't know how the silver got into King Qi's mansion. However, since it was a windfall, he was willing to give the 500 million taels of silver. The taels of silver will be handed over to the treasury for confiscation, and please Your Majesty order the case to be retried and return him innocent."

"The Empress Dowager also came forward to help intercede. Later, King Qi met with Sheng last time. I don't know what he said. The Holy Majesty ordered Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation and draw up a regulation as soon as possible."

Handing her hand stove to Fang Ruxuan, and rubbing the back of her hand to warm her, Chen Mei said softly: "Although I don't know what's going on now, but my father said that King Qi's grievances can probably be resolved. Therefore, If you persist for a few more days, maybe there will be a decree from the higher-ups in a few days, and then you will be able to reunite as a family."

"Sister Mei, this time, I want to thank you very much."

These news were very precious to Fang Ruxuan, and the arrival of Chen Mei made Fang Ruxuan see great hope. She sniffed, and Fang Ruxuan thanked her humbly.

Shaking her head, Chen Mei patted Fang Ruxuan's hand in relief: "Sister Ruxuan, people often say that it's not easy. This time, although what happened to Prince Qi's mansion was extremely dangerous, now, it can be regarded as a turning point. Cold, you have to take care of yourself here alone, there will be a day when you get out of prison and reunite."

It was a cold day, but Fang Ruxuan was only wearing a jacket and trousers, and her upper body was still wearing a jacket that could be seen as a man's. Chen Mei felt that her nose was a little sore.

The wealth of Prince Qi's Mansion is far greater than that of Chen's Mansion. Therefore, Fang Ruxuan used to live in rich clothes and fine food, but now all this is even more unbearable.

But what Chen Mei didn't know was that Fang Ruxuan in front of her had gone through five long years in Wutong Garden in the Qiu Mansion. Coptidis, Fang Ruxuan is also happy.

Sending charcoal in the snow is far more than icing on the cake. Fang Ruxuan nodded and said carefully: "Sister Mei, I am very grateful that you can come to see me this time and let me know about my father and brother. If you leave here, don't come again." Got it, do you know? If someone finds out later, Uncle Chen will be implicated. At that time, not to mention me, even my father will feel uneasy."

Chen Mei didn't know this, but Fang Ruxuan, a daughter's family, was imprisoned alone in a big prison. As long as Chen Mei thought about it, she felt that she couldn't stand by and watch.

While the two were talking, they heard a heavy coughing sound outside the gate, and the echoes circled back and forth in the cell, making this place even more eerie.

Fang Ruxuan handed the hand stove back to Chen Mei. Chen Mei insisted on not wanting it. Fang Ruxuan smiled and said, "Sister Mei, take it back quickly. Put it here. Once the charcoal inside is extinguished, it will be useless. It's just cheaper for others." .”

Chen Mei was stunned for a moment, then put it away in disappointment, but wanted to take off the thick fur on her body to protect Fang Ruxuan from the cold.

But Fang Ruxuan refused again, "Such a good thing, if you look at it, you won't know it's mine. At that time, it would be even worse to implicate you and the person who brought you in for no reason. Sister Mei, don't worry, I believe It's just been a few days of suffering, and when my father is wronged, I will be able to get out of this hellish place."

What Fang Ruxuan said was reasonable, but Chen Mei didn't insist anymore, and got out of the prison in one step and three times.

Knowing that her father and elder brother are well and that everything is going well now, Fang Ruxuan's originally anxious mood was completely relaxed.

After Chen Mei left, Fang Ruxuan fell asleep not long after.

In the middle of the night, Fang Ruxuan, who was alert, woke up immediately when she heard movement outside.

The cell door opened and the flames brightened.

Before she could clearly see who was coming, Fang Ruxuan could already smell a tangy smell of alcohol.

The one who came in was one of the prison guards who delivered food every day, and there was a man with a big belly beside him, walking staggeringly, it seemed that he had just been drinking.

Both of them were dressed in the clothes of jailers, but the drunk man had a red belt around his waist. Presumably, he was the leader of these jailers.

"Boss Zhu, how is this little girl? Is she more beautiful than the girl from Yicui Pavilion? She's just a little younger..."

The jailer looked at the drunk man flatteringly and asked.

The leader of the jailer called "Boss Zhu" clasped the iron fence with both hands to stand firm, took the lantern in the jailer's hand with one hand and lifted it up, and looked at Fang Ruxuan carefully.

After seeing Fang Ruxuan's face clearly, he seemed to wake up all of a sudden, his drunken eyes turned scarlet and frightening.

"You boy, remember me when there is such a good thing, brother, I know it well. Go, get the key..."

Presumably knowing that the prisoners held here are all serious criminals, and they will not escape death in the future, Boss Zhu was not at all afraid, and ordered the jailer to get the key to Fang Ruxuan's cell.

Fang Ruxuan, who was huddled in the corner, seemed to understand what the person in front of her was going to do to her.

"I am the lady of Prince Qi's mansion, are you impatient?"

Frightened in her heart, Fang Ruxuan's body was already trembling slightly, but thinking that she couldn't just be submissive and make him feel like a bully, Fang Ruxuan forced herself to stand up, and shouted at the man with hatred.

"King Qi? Haha..."

After belching, Boss Zhu had a sneer on his face: "Nowadays, where is King Qi? King Qi treacherous and collaborating with the enemy, even the yellow-mouthed children on the street know about it, and you think you are that noble lady of the palace?" Woolen cloth?"

Seeing that the man hadn't found the key for a long time, Boss Zhu turned around and cursed a few words, then turned his head and looked at Fang Ruxuan with a lewd smile and said, "Seeing how pretty you are, sir, I pity you, so instead of waiting to die in the future, It’s better to follow the uncle early, how about the uncle find a way to get you out of the prison, and follow the uncle and me to eat and drink spicy food?"

Seeing that Fang Ruxuan didn't answer, Mr. Zhu said slightly angrily: "Why, don't you believe it? Tell you, the governor of Funan, Hu Jing, is my uncle. If you follow the uncle, the uncle will go outside to find someone who is as tall as you." Er's little girl went to die for you. In the future, there will be no one like you in this world. You will be the one I love most. Otherwise, hum..."

Grinning, Boss Zhu's eyes circled Fang Ruxuan unscrupulously.

"My father was framed. Although Laba went to court that day, he could be convicted? Now, my father followed the imperial envoy to Beijing to face the saint. In the future, my father will be cleared of his grievances. If you know what you have done, what do you think will happen? ?”

Leaning against the wall, letting the biting chill inspire her calmness, Fang Ruxuan asked loudly.

However, the next moment, the jailer brought the key and opened the cell door.

　Happy Zhou~~ In addition, I would like to shout out weakly: the new book is still very thin and needs to be taken care of by my dear ones. Remember to vote for Yoyo, MUA~~~
