Concubine's true colors

Chapter 8 Severe Punishment of Evil Slaves
Xiao Heng is in his prime of life, and he was born as a military commander, so he is very majestic and heroic in his actions.

Jiedushi is a military officer, the highest officer in the local military and government, and Xiao Heng is the guard general of Yangzhou.

After two lifetimes, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't tell what it was like to see this father.

Although this father is not as harsh on her as the aunt, but the two are like strangers who are very familiar, but they don't look like father and daughter.

But according to this result, Xiao Jinxuan knew that she also had a big reason.

Because she is always said to be a catastrophe, she has a particularly low self-esteem, and always shrinks in a corner in front of people, trying to weaken her own existence as much as possible.

The few times that Xiao Heng came to Zhuangzi, he almost never saw Xiao Jinxuan. It is strange that the relationship between father and daughter can deepen.

But now, when Xiao Heng walked into the hall, Xiao Jinxuan was the first to stand up before anyone else could speak.

When she came to Xiao Heng, she greeted her politely first, and then said softly: "It's not a big deal, it's just that Aunt Xue has admonished her daughter, not wanting to disturb father."

Xiao Heng was taken aback for a moment, then asked uncertainly: "You, are you Jinxuan?"

No wonder he couldn't recognize him. In his impression, the fourth daughter was always sloppy and messy, but the girl in front of him was slim and graceful, with a gentle face. She was dressed in plain clothes, which further brought out her excellent temperament. Looking at her It makes people feel good.

Satisfied with the astonishment in Xiao Heng's eyes, the reason why Xiao Jinxuan came so late was not to compete with Ning's, but to wash and dress up seriously, take off the shabby clothes for work, and put on The clean skirt naturally looks brand new.

According to the memory of her previous life, she was later released from the wooden cage because Xiao Heng came to Zhuangzi.

So she guessed the time, and intentionally provoked Aunt Xue who was the most thoughtless, and let Xiao Heng see this scene, thus attracting Xiao Heng's attention.And everything was going according to her plan.

Nodding obediently, Xiao Jinxuan said more docilely: "My daughter is Jinxuan. I really shouldn't have spoken today. I offended my aunt. I'll pour tea for my aunt and admit my mistake."

But Xiao Heng stopped her immediately, frowned and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, you are the fourth lady of the Xiao family, so you don't have to wrong yourself like this."

I have never heard of a daughter who wants to apologize to an aunt. Such a bad manner will never happen in other families, especially his Xiao family.

But Xiao Jinxuan's eyes were red, and she choked up and said, "Jinxuan is really happy. Just now, Aunt Xue said that I was a bastard raised in Zhuangzi, and told me not to treat myself as a young lady. Jinxuan thought that my father didn't want a daughter. It's over."

Who can pretend to be pitiful? She was too stupid in her previous life, and she didn't know how to speak when she suffered a disadvantage, but now she not only knows how to speak, but also learns how to say what is best for herself.

"What! Xuerong, you really said that!" Xuerong is Aunt Xue's real name, so Xiao Heng couldn't help but be angry, what about Xiao Jinxuan, she is also his biological daughter, and the other party is a wild species, so what has he become.

Aunt Xue's face turned pale, but now she wanted to deny it, but everyone in the room heard it.

Immediately her body softened, Aunt Xue knelt down on the ground, and said in fear: "Master, listen to my concubine's explanation, it's because Miss Si speaks too badly, I just couldn't choose what to say because I was so angry, I didn't mean it. "

Xiao Heng didn't listen to this, and said coldly: "Don't you want to say, others can force you to speak up, go back to your room and think about it, don't leave the room for half a step without my order."

Although he likes the Xue family very much, a concubine dares to scold the young lady of the mansion for being a bastard in public. If this is not punished, it will be said that he dotes on his concubine and abuses his daughter, which will really harm his prestige in the army and ruin the Xiao family's reputation even more reputation.

Aunt Xue burst into tears and wanted to beg for mercy, but her daughter Xiao Jinfu stopped her and motioned her to stop talking.

Comforting her mother, Xiao Jinfu jumped off the chair, ran over and hugged Xiao Heng's arm, and said with an innocent and honest smile: "Father, you are here, Fu'er misses you, I want to hug, father hug hug."

Looking at the cute little daughter with open little hands, Xiao Heng's anger dissipated most of his anger. He hugged his daughter with a big laugh, and said: "Mr. The ban will be avoided."

A flash of pride flashed in Xiao Jinfu's eyes, and then she said in a childlike voice: "My aunt is at fault, and my father should punish me, but my aunt also said it because she heard that the fourth sister almost killed someone and was frightened for a while. Wrong word."

Xiao Heng glanced in surprise, Xiao Jinxuan, who looked like a weak little flower, was a little suspicious that the other party could really do murderous things.

Ning looked at Xiao Jinfu appreciatively, this girl was more useful than her stupid mother-in-law, and said quickly: "Master, don't say you don't believe it, even I don't believe that Jinxuan would do such a vicious thing Things, I detained the person who framed her in the back room, so I will press her down and give Jinxuan justice."

Looking at Ning's appearance of protecting her concubine and being kind to her aunt, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

The other party said that she was framed, but if he really believed her, he would not call her here today, let alone ask Xiao Heng for judgment, but he was just pretending to be a good person, without any sincerity.

It didn't take long for Ping'er to be brought here. Now her broken head has been wrapped in gauze, but the blood is still oozing out. It's really pitiful to see.

As soon as Ping'er came in, she first took a careful look at Ning Shi, and when she saw the other party nodded slightly, she immediately howled loudly and knelt down in front of Xiao Heng.

"My lord, you have to save me. The fourth lady is going to kill the servant. Look at my head. If the servant didn't run so fast, I would have been beaten to death by now."

Xiao Heng didn't believe it before, but now he couldn't help it, and immediately asked: "Jinxuan, the injury on this girl's head was really caused by you?"

All the people in the room focused their eyes on Xiao Jinxuan's face, waiting to see how she would answer.

But Xiao Jinxuan just smiled, and then said calmly: "Reporting to father, Ping'er's head injury was indeed caused by me."

She admitted it so generously!

Everyone in the hall thought she would deny it, thought she would defend it, but they just didn't expect such a result.

This Xiao Jinxuan is crazy, an abandoned concubine, now has the reputation of beating and abusing servants, whoever dares to marry her in the future, won't this life be completely ruined.

But after Xiao Heng was stunned for a moment, he didn't get angry. Instead, he asked with interest: "Oh? Aren't you afraid of Jinxuan? This maid has shed a lot of blood."

Xiao Jinxuan raised her head when she heard the words, and said proudly: "Why should you be afraid? I am your daughter. My Xiao family is full of generals. My grandfather is the marshal of the Great Zhou. My uncle is the general guarding the frontier. And father, you are also the general who holds the military power, I am the daughter of the Xiao family, how can I be so weak that I am afraid of blood."

Xiao Jinxuan's remarks really shocked everyone in the hall. Who would have thought that these words could be uttered from the mouth of a teenage girl, with that air of arrogance, which is not at all compared to that of a man. Difference.

Xiao Heng, who was holding his little daughter, put Xiao Jinfu down, his eyes glowed with blazing light, he clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "Jin Xuan is right, she is indeed my daughter of Xiao Heng, a child of my Xiao family, That's all."

That's right, cowardice is what the Xiao family dislikes the most. In the past, she was too weak, so it was difficult for her close relatives to see her.

So when Xiao Heng questioned her, Xiao Jinxuan had an idea, thinking why not do the opposite, show courage, and admit it directly, maybe this bold father will be more satisfied.

But it turns out that she really made the right bet this time!

The Ning family on the side was very anxious. Seeing the appreciation in Xiao Heng's eyes became stronger, she hurriedly said: "Jinxuan is so bold, and my mother is also very pleased, but after all, you are a daughter's family, so you should be gentle and humble, and kill me at will. People, spread the word, and others will say that my Xiao family caress about human life, and I have no law."

But Xiao Jinxuan was not afraid, and said slowly: "Ping'er sold herself to my Xiao family. Even if I really wanted her life, I didn't break the law. Besides, my mother has been running the family for decades. Didn't she ever punish her?" People, I am afraid that if they committed a felony, they would be punished more harshly than Jinxuan."

Ning was speechless, because Xiao Jinxuan's humility and forbearance made her ignore the other party's identity, a daughter of the family, let alone beating the servants, even if she really wanted the other party's life, it was understandable.

What's more, as Xiao Jinxuan asked her back, if it is said that punishing servants, the number of people who died in her hands, if not dozens, would definitely be quite a few, then counting in this way, wouldn't she be even more unforgivable and lawless.

Seeing Xiao Heng's expression of approval, Xiao Jinxuan hurriedly said while the iron was hot: "This Ping'er is so disrespectful to me. I'm just a small punishment and a big punishment. She relied on that she was rewarded by her mother, and instead sued me, the master's trickster." For such an untouchable maid, mother should take it back, Jinxuan knows that her status is humble, and she really can't afford it."

Ping'er, who was kneeling on the ground, looked quite pitiful with his injured appearance, but after hearing these words, Xiao Heng looked at Ping'er, and felt that the other party was very hateful.

Looking up, Xiao Heng said: "Fengxia, how can such a person stay and take care of Jinxuan, you are not thinking about this matter." Fengxia is Ning's real name, and now only Xiao Heng can be called like that she.

Ning's complexion instantly became ugly. In front of all the concubines, concubines, and servants, Xiao Heng's words were equivalent to questioning her ability to manage the house. Get in.

The veil in her hand was about to be torn, but Ning still had to apologize and said with a smile: "What the master said is that I thought Ping'er was capable, but I didn't want to be so ignorant of my duty, Jinxuan, you have been wronged."

Xiao Jinfu smiled at Ning, and said softly: "Mother is serious, daughter is fine, I don't feel wronged."

Ning shi was forced to come down from the stage by the public, and she had to force her smile. She was too late to be happy, so she would feel wronged.

The silver teeth of Ning's mouth were about to be crushed. When did this Xiao Jinxuan become so cunning, but Xiao Heng was here, and she couldn't get angry again, so she could only continue to maintain a stiff smile and sit there awkwardly.

Things have developed to the present, and no one is listening to what Ping'er has to say. A servant who commits crimes above and falls into the hands of the Patriarch, knows what will happen without even thinking about it.

In order to appease the wronged Xiao Jinxuan, Xiao Heng said straightforwardly: "Jinxuan is yours, how to deal with it is up to you."

Xiao Jinxuan smiled, thought for a while, and then said: "In this case, come, someone, pull Ping'er out and punish her with fifty sticks, then throw Zhuangzi out, and let her fend for herself."

Ping'er was so frightened that she couldn't figure it out, how could such an unfavorable and cowardly fourth young lady force the eldest lady to be speechless and the coaxing master to obey her.

But she couldn't care less about these things. Seeing her life was at stake, she cried and crawled up to Xiao Jinxuan, begging for mercy loudly: "Miss, please forgive me, I won't dare again, from now on I will be your one Dog, I will do whatever you call me, please spare me."

Fifty boards, even if a grown man can't stand it, if it's a woman, he will definitely lose his life.

Xiao Jinxuan gently pulled out the corner of her skirt that was grabbed by Ping'er, and watched her being dragged out while crying, her expression did not change from the beginning to the end.

If it was the past, and someone begged her on such a knee, she would be soft-hearted and let the past go.

But now she won't anymore, some people are just unfamiliar wolves, only death can completely change them.

After a while, the sound of slapping boards outside the hall and Heping'er's cries came in intermittently. Xiao Jinxuan found this bloody and miserable sound extremely pleasant

This is the first time she has been a human being in two lives, and it is the first time that she personally took care of those who dared to trample and bully her, and this is just the beginning. she.
