Chapter 159

The next day, Fourth Master Xie still went out to drink New Year's wine, and He Li was still called to serve the fourth wife.Quite a few guests were invited to drink New Year's wine today, including the fourth wife's natal cousin, five or six cousins ​​of the Xi family, and Miss Hu Yuehu, the daughter of Princess Zhaoren.

The fourth wife praised Hu Yue very much, "This is the real royal bloodline! Miss Hu's grandfather, Prince Yu, is the late emperor's cousin, and he is called the nobleman of the emperor." It's not like some people, just ordinary girls, the late emperor's whim If she becomes a princess, she really considers herself a princess.

Hu Yue is thirteen or fourteen years old, her features are considered pretty, and her clothes are considered luxurious. She smiled reservedly, "The fourth wife invited me repeatedly, but my mother really didn't want to save face, so she ordered me to come to the appointment." Very condescending tone.

During the New Year's Eve, everyone has New Year's wine.Princess Zhaoren is the head of the princess's mansion, so naturally she spends most of her time at home to entertain guests.Since he couldn't get out and he didn't save face, he ordered Hu Yue to come.Hu Yue is the only prostitute daughter of Princess Zhaoren, and Hu Yue's presence in person is considered a face to the fourth wife.

There was the Second Grandma Guo in the seat, and she asked Hu Yue with a smile, "Miss Hu has such a noble status, so she must have the title of county head? The granddaughter of the fourth wife is the daughter of a county head like you. The late emperor personally sealed Suiping The county magistrate." This Second Grandma Guo was newly married, a girl from the Wang family, and ranked No.19 in her natal family.

Xishi glanced at Second Grandma Guo in surprise.Cousin is always smart and sensible, what's wrong today?The status of a child depends on the status of the father. Whether it is a princess or a princess, once they are married, the royal family will no longer give titles to their children.Occasionally, it is also His Majesty's special decree, special grace.This Princess Zhaoren is just the eldest daughter of Prince Yu, not a close relative, even His Majesty the Emperor may not recognize her, so why would he specially confer her daughter?Cousin, if you ask in person like this, you are embarrassing Miss Hu.

Hu Yue is young and has no self-cultivation. Hearing the words, she was angry, but she didn't speak.Let her lie and say yes, she doesn't have the guts.Asking her to tell the truth that she didn't have it would be worse than killing her.The fourth wife's granddaughter has the title of county lord, but she has no real royal blood!
The Fourth Wife gave Second Grandma Guo a displeased look. Isn't this winking child messing around?I want to praise Miss Hu here, but she wants to tear things down.The Fourth Wife said modestly: "When my little granddaughter was born, the late Emperor was in a good mood, so she gave it a special decree." She looked at Hu Yue apologetically, with gentle eyes.

Xi's heart skipped a beat.The first emperor was in a good mood to seal it?If your words spread, what will others say?The first emperor was wise and powerful, just and fair, so he would randomly give the court famous weapons when he was in a good mood.Did the late emperor do things so casually?It's good for you to say that, I know, you want to comfort Miss Hu, but I don't know, I think you want to slander the late emperor.

"Cousin, Miss Hu, you don't know. My sister Yi has a lot of history." Xi smiled gently, "She went to Qianqing Palace when she was only a month old. After entering Qianqing Palace, the first emperor felt energetic and vigorous, so he was awarded the title of Suiping county magistrate. The first emperor once praised her, saying that she is a little lucky star."

No matter how upset Hu Yue was, there was nothing she could do.She has never been to the Qianqing Palace in her life, so she doesn't know where the door of the Qianqing Palace opens.Qianqing Palace is the place where His Majesty the Emperor lives, and it is also the place where government affairs are handled daily, not to mention her, even her own mother, Princess Zhaoren, has never been inside.

After listening to Xi Shi's words, the fourth wife seemed to think of something and was thoughtful.Second Grandma Guo pursed her lips and smiled, "This little lucky star went out to drink New Year's wine today, and isn't at home? It's a pity. If we can meet this little lucky star, we can also be blessed."

Hu Yue snorted, and reluctantly said: "Yes, it's a pity." Fortunately, the Suiping county magistrate was not at home, otherwise he would be angry when he saw her.The title of county lord is really enviable. With the title of county lord, it is not only an honor on the face, but also a lifetime salary.

The fourth wife was very sorry, and talked to Hu Yue in a modest and gentle manner, "Miss Hu likes to wear bright red, it looks very good-looking. The color of bright red is still bright in your little girl's clothes." From temperament to appearance to clothing, put All that can be boasted.

Second Grandma Guo smiled and said: "Isn't that right, the little girl's family looks very good in bright red. Speaking of which, I have met the county magistrate of Suiping several times this year alone, and he always wears bright red clothes. The little girl was born well, but she wears a bright red shirt, and she loves it."

Hu Yue's heart moved after hearing this.The fourth wife praised her family politely, "The princess is virtuous and filial, even the empress dowager praised her. Miss Hu, when the empress dowager Xu commended Lingtang, was it in the 25th or 26th year of Taishi?"

Hu Yue looked proud, "It's the 26th year of Taishi." At that time, the late emperor was still in power, and the Empress Dowager Xu was still the empress. Wen Gong is enough to be a role model for women." What a high evaluation.

At the end of the day, Tangnian and Yaya, who had gone out to drink New Year's wine, came back with their boy Yi, and talked with the old lady in Xuanhui Hall. "I'm really tired today, that's why I came back so early." After a while, the Fourth Wife sent a maid to invite, "Let Sister Yi meet the honored guest."

The old lady was unhappy.What distinguished guests, isn't she inviting her natal family, Brother Yan's daughter-in-law's natal family, and Miss Hu today? The distinguished guests she is talking about should be Miss Hu.I don't know what she thinks, let's just have a good life, but I have to associate with Princess Zhaoren, the "real royal princess", and treat Princess Zhaoren and Miss Hu as guests.

The fourth wife is Zi Yi's elder, since she opened her mouth, Tang Nian and Ya Ya had no choice but to obey.There was a female guest, and Tang Nian couldn't go there, so Yaya ordered the wet nurse to hug Ziyi, and followed the big girls Mu Feng and Mu Hua to the big flower hall where the banquet was held.

After exchanging greetings and greetings, everyone laughed and teased Xiao Ziyi, "Who's the little county master going to pay New Year's greetings today? Have you had a New Year's wine?" Xiao Ziyi giggled, muttering something, but looking at He Li, open his arms to He Li, wanting to hug him.

The fourth wife nodded with a straight face, and He Li hurriedly picked up Ziyi.Xiao Ziyi reported the itinerary to her excitedly, "Uncle's house, uncle's house." Xiao Ziyi didn't mean to talk, what she meant was "I went to one uncle's house, and then another uncle's house." He Li was very happy She was understanding, "Sister Yi went to the house of the two uncles, didn't she?" The boy Yi nodded happily, hugged He Li's cheek and kissed him.For such a small child, it was a joy to have someone who could understand her.You know, if it's someone you don't know very well or is not very clever, you can't figure out what she wants to express after listening to her for a long time.

Second Grandma Guo looked at Yaya and Ziyi with envy and jealousy.Is this Xiaoyuren's wife and daughter? That's all.Second Grandma Guo looked at Miss Hu coldly, "The person holding the little county magistrate is her own grandmother." What are you looking like, are you ashamed?Xie Ziyi's grandmother is a concubine, isn't she also the county head?You are not even a county head!
Miss Hu couldn't see the ridicule and contempt in Second Grandma Guo's eyes.With anger burning in her eyes, she ordered the maid to "bring Xueer here." The maid shook her body, bent her knees and agreed, and soon after, brought a snow-white Persian cat.Hu Yue took Xue'er with a loving face, and played in her arms.Just as the third wife would not say to everyone, "My sharp weapon to punish my concubine is my long nails", Hu Yue will not easily tell people that her sharp weapon to punish others is a Persian cat.This cat has been trained to love and attack people.

Yaya frowned slightly when she saw the Persian cat with a snow-white body and golden eyes.Xiao Ziyi is very courageous, he wants to pet and play with any cat or dog he sees.But who knows who knows that cats and dogs are unclean and have a gentle temperament. The boy is only over one year old, so it's better to stay away.

Hu Yue caressed Xue'er, "Why don't you look at the little princess, don't you like her too? Let's get closer and take a good look at the little princess." Hu Yue walked slowly to He Li, and Ziyi saw Cher, smiling.Hu Yue patted Xue'er on the back lightly, Xue'er jumped up suddenly, and charged towards Ziyi like lightning!

The Fourth Wife closed her eyes in fright.When she trembled and opened her eyes, what caught her eyes was a pool of blood on the ground and a dead cat.The fourth wife was always timid, so she screamed in fright and passed out.

In the first month of the first year of Jiasheng, there were many anecdotes and anecdotes.First, during the New Year's Day celebration, Empress Dowager Xu wanted to give the pregnant maid to her ministers, and then there was a banquet for Xie's family on Dengshikou Street. Miss Hu, the daughter of Princess Zhaoren, was jealous of Princess Suiping, and borrowed a cat to treat Suiping. The county lord has made a murderous move!
Fortunately, the Suiping County Lord has two maids by his side, both of whom are talented.A loyal protector stood in front of the county lord; a heroic one killed the white cat with a dagger in his sleeve, and the county lord Suiping was safe and sound.Even so, after all, the county master is only one year and three months old, so he was scared.

Then it will be fun.The Marquis of Lu'an, Fu Shen, had a violent temper. After hearing about this incident, he brought a group of private soldiers to Zhaoren County Lord's mansion aggressively.Princess Zhaoren and Yibin apologized again and again, but they didn't take it to heart: Animals, disobedient, causing trouble, what can we do?We are human beings, and we cannot compare ourselves to animals.

Fu Shen waved his hand, "Do it!" He wasn't trying to reason, what reason could he have with this kind of person?That group of private soldiers had been following him for a long time, and they obeyed his orders very much. They quickly took out the guys and went to the house to demolish the house.

"You, you, in broad daylight, do you still have the law of the king?" Yi Bin was anxious, pointing at Fu Shen and the private soldiers and shouted angrily.But no one listened to him at all, no one paid attention to him.Yibin could only sigh, it was hard to explain why a scholar met a soldier.

Princess Zhaoren's face was ashen.This is the capital, at the feet of the emperor!Whose power did Fu Shen rely on to openly bully himself, the princess of the royal family?Fu Shen, although you are old, you don't have to court death like this.

Zhaoren County Lord's Mansion was full of wolves and ghosts.Such a big commotion has alarmed Shuntian Mansion and Wucheng Bingmasi, and the censors have also heard the wind, and they impeached, "Please punish the Marquis of Lu'an severely, so as to rectify the law!" There are kings but no kings Oh, so rough in the capital? !
After hearing the news, Liu Nian and Zhang Yi rushed to Xie's house. "Xie Xiaoya, good boy, do you recognize Auntie?" Fleeting Nian asked Ziyi softly.Good boy, you are not really scared, do you still recognize me?Fleeting Nian was worried about this heart, and his expression and tone were extraordinarily gentle.

Xiao Ziyi looked at her with clear eyes for a while, then turned his head and told Tang Nian seriously, "No, no, I'm stupid!" See if she looks stupid like this, and ask me if I recognize her.She is my little aunt, why should I not recognize her?

Tang Nian smiled slightly, but remained silent.Liu Nian looked at Zi Yi angrily for a moment, then turned around and pulled Zhang Yi over and asked, "Where is grandpa? Are you still smashing? Naishan, you go and help grandpa." Whispering in Zhang Yi's ear, he whispered a few words.

Zhang Xi rubbed his chin, "Little boy, your idea is really bad! But I like it!" After complimenting his wife, he smiled and kissed his niece, and left.Grandpa is always impulsive, so help him deal with the aftermath.

Zhang Xi went to Zhaoren County Lord's Mansion, and Shen Chen and Yue Chi also arrived.The three brothers got together to discuss it, and they all nodded, "This idea is bad enough, that's all." It's not enough to just demolish the princess's mansion, seriously.

When the people from Shuntian Mansion and Wucheng Bingma Division arrived, the Zhaoren County Lord's Mansion was already covered in rubble, which was very miserable.Fu Shen moved a chair, and sat at the door of the mansion, "Put your heart back in your stomach! I, Fu Shen, do everything by myself, so I won't bother you!" Shuntian Mansion Governor and the commander of Wucheng Bingmasi all smiled wryly, Just talk big, how could you not get hurt.You are a little slower to start, if you do this, if we report that "it is too late to stop", no one will believe it!
After dismantling and smashing, a group of private soldiers lined up neatly. Fu Shen got up and led them away, "I can't run away. I will surrender tomorrow. Now, I will go to see Xiao Suiping first. What's the matter, this is not over!"

Fu Shen has been in the army for decades, even though he has been discharged and returned to the field, his momentum is still there.The governor of Shuntian Prefecture and the commander of the soldiers and horses of the five cities made you look at me and I look at you. Stop him, or not?If we really fight with this team of private soldiers, what chance do we have of winning?
"Fu Houye, please show mercy and save our mother and daughter!" At this moment, a slender young woman with a baby in her arms knelt in front of Fu Shen's horse, crying uncontrollably, "You are so kind, my daughter! ...I'm starving to death!"

Fu Shen raised his head to the sky, "Your daughter is about to starve to death, go find her father!" You married a shameless man, gave birth to a child, but didn't raise it!The young woman kowtowed again and again, "Master Fu, you are chivalrous, save our mother and daughter! I am Yibin's concubine, Princess Zhaoren... Yibin can't do anything to protect our mother and daughter. I am Poor people, they die when they die, but the child is only over one year old, so pitiful."

Fu Shen regained his spirits, "You are the concubine of Princess Zhaoren's mansion, and your child is Princess Zhaoren's concubine. The concubine is about to starve to death? Haha, it is said that Princess Zhaoren is virtuous, so she is so virtuous! Get up, I'll save you!" He commanded boldly, "Just find another courtyard and raise this woman and child. Also, hurry up and get some food for the child. The little girl who is only over one year old is about to I’m starving to death. What a crime, what a crime!” Immediately, I felt that I had demolished this house correctly!Right!
After this pair of mother and daughter came out, two more pairs emerged, either holding in their arms or holding hands. The little girl was not very healthy, with yellow hair and yellow face, "Please, Lord Marquis!" Save our mother and daughter! Princess Zhaoren, she doesn't give the child enough to eat, and she beats and scolds day and night, and the child will die in her hands sooner or later!" Fu Shen really liked to hear these words, like a savior, "It's so pitiful , so miserable, I take them in!" At this moment, Fu Shen really experienced the thrill of being a hero.No wonder Shen Mai and my silly son-in-law are going to be knights. It feels good to be a knight, great!

After Fu Shen gave his instructions with great interest, he galloped away.The Governor of Shuntian Prefecture discussed with the Commander of the Army and Horses of the Five Cities, "Let's go to the palace to see you, this matter is too big and weird, we rely on the Holy Judgment." Regardless of Princess Zhaoren and Yibin's persuasion, he went to the palace to ask to see the emperor up.

Fu Zimu came galloping with a few tough personal soldiers.After getting off the horse, Fu Zimu cupped his hands gently and politely, "My father is impatient, please take care of me." Princess Zhaoren and his wife both put on a serious face, what are you taking care of, how can you take care of this?Your father is irritable, so can you tear down my house like this?
