Chapter Ninety-One: There is a debtor who is wronged
The eldest princess was stunned, knowing that Mrs. Hucheng Hou also had a grudge against Xue Jinyi.
It's more serious than she imagined......
It was she who underestimated it, and she knew that she should have asked Jinyi to avoid it temporarily, so as not to be embarrassed now.
And the most troublesome thing at the moment is that Mrs. Hucheng Hou did not clearly say how much money was counted on Dong Yan, how can this be remembered by Jinyi? At this point, it's hard to ask again.
The eldest princess looked at Xue Jinyi with some concern, and secretly sweated for her.
In order to assist the emperor in establishing the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Marquis of Hucheng made great contributions, although he was not as good as the Duke of Weiguo, but it was also the merit of the founding of the country. Therefore, if Jinyi did something wrong and was scolded by Mrs. Hou of Hucheng, she would not be able to say anything.
At this time, Xue Jinyi's eyebrows were calm, as if she was not aware of the coming crisis.
Mrs. Huchenghou's eyes turned red, and she asked in an accentuated tone, "Got it, Miss Xue?" ”
Xue Jinyi felt a sense of resentment, which had been perceived in the second lady of the Jin Anbo Mansion for a moment.
Does Mrs. Hucheng Hou think that if Master Yonghua and Qintian Supervisor Bao Zhang had found out earlier that she was favored by the Bodhisattva and was a person who was married to the King of Chu, Dong Yan would not have died tragically in her own pond? So she resented the King of Chu, and she also resented her Xue Jinyi was only discovered after Dong Yan's death?
She didn't squeak, finished writing the last word, and then held the account book in both hands, came to Mrs. Hucheng Hou, saluted, and said gently: "Mrs. Hucheng Hou, please look at the accounts and remember whether there is right or wrong, if it is correct, please sign again." ”
Mrs. Hucheng Hou glanced at her coldly, glanced at the account book, and what caught her eye was a beautiful hairpin flower.
After Dong Yan had an accident in the palace, she sent someone to inquire about the reason, only to know that Dong Yan suddenly stood up for some reason and said, "The daughter of the Xue family is possessed by demons, tell the emperor to be careful", which made the emperor unhappy and was kicked out of the palace.
The person who brought back the news also said that the emperor was lukewarm to the show girls, but praised Xue Jinyi's handwriting well.
After that, Mrs. Hucheng's heart was filled with resentment-
Her Yan'er doesn't deserve to die!
It's the King of Chu, it's Xue Jinyi, it's they who killed her Yan'er!
Mrs. Hucheng's body was trembling slightly, her eyes were blurred, and before tears were about to pour out, she saw that it was written in the account book-
"Today, I received a donation of 22 catties from the Hou Mansion of Hucheng, including 7 taels of gold from Dong Yan, the granddaughter of the Hou of Hucheng."
"Why seven taels of gold?" She asked, frowning a little disapprehensively.
When the eldest princess heard this, her heart tightened.
According to Mrs. Hucheng's love for her granddaughter, this amount is at least ten taels or more!
The king of Chu heard the movement on the other side of the screen clearly, Mrs. Hucheng Hou had grievances, and she should also complain about him, but in fact, she had nothing to do with Xue Jinyi.
He couldn't help it, and took a step forward, wanting to relieve Xue Jinyi.
Suddenly, the screen was gently knocked three times.
It was the eldest princess who noticed it and reminded him not to come out.
"But ......"
"Don't rush yet." The eldest princess leaned back slightly, lowered her voice and said, "Let's see what Jinyi does first." ”
Seeing that Xue Jinyi was still calm and calm in the face of Mrs. Hou of Hucheng, who was about to erupt in anger, she suddenly felt that this young girl could handle this "crisis" by herself, and she was faintly looking forward to it.
Xue Jinyi owed again, her eyebrows were supple, and her voice was a little hoarse, but it was as gentle as a spring breeze, "In Buddhism, there is no difference in all numbers, and they all have auspicious meanings. And these seven characters represent perfection and rebirth in the Elysian World. Madame has a loving heart for Miss Dong, and wishes her to go to Elysium after her death and be healthy in the next life, so seven is the best. ”
Mrs. Hucheng Hou looked at this girl who was not a few years older than her granddaughter, and remembered that it was rumored that the eldest daughter of the Weiguo Mansion was favored by the Bodhisattva, and now she does have a bit of compassion in her eyebrows.
She was a little stunned, but her heart was still surging with sadness and resentment.
Xue Jinyi continued: "This is a little foolish opinion of Jinyi, and she is arrogant, please forgive Mrs. Hucheng Hou." ”
Her voice fell, and the surroundings fell silent, so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard.
The eldest princess looked at the face of Mrs. Hucheng Hou and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It didn't take long for Mrs. Hucheng Hou to take out the seal she carried with her and press the red seal on the record.
"Thank you, Mrs. Hucheng, Miss Dong." Xue Jinyi saluted again.
Mrs. Hucheng Hou spit out softly, not knowing what to say.
Xue Jinyi didn't expect that she would be able to resolve the resentment in her heart by writing a number that would satisfy Mrs. Hucheng Hou, so she slowly raised her head and stared into her eyes without blinking.
"Mrs. Hucheng Hou, everything has a cause and effect." She spat out a sentence clearly.
Mrs. Hucheng Hou was stunned, and felt that the eldest daughter of Duke Wei seemed to be reminding herself of something.
She subconsciously wanted to ask, but saw that someone had already returned to the eldest princess with the account book in her hand.
This eldest daughter of the Patriotic Princesses behaves appropriately, has a soft temperament, and a pleasant voice, if you really want to trouble her, you can find out what to do, but it will seem that she has a small amount of energy and is out of shape.
Mrs. Hucheng Hou tightened her veil and saluted the eldest princess, "The money has been delivered, and the concubine does not dare to delay the important matter of resettlement of refugees, so she will retire first." The eldest princess is healthy, please take care of your body. ”
"Well, go ahead." The eldest princess nodded, "Mrs. Hucheng is too." ”
The two glanced at each other, and Mrs. Hucheng Hou withdrew from the flower hall.
The King of Chu walked out from behind the screen, and the first sight fell on Xue Jinyi's body.
She is very calm and not shocked.
After talking softly to the eldest princess, she raised her head and looked at him, "Let's go, Ah Xuan." ”
"Hmm." King Chu nodded.
The eldest princess advised: "Be careful on the road, and if you encounter difficulties, call someone back to talk about it." By the way, at noon, Xuan'er, you take Jinyi to have a good meal, don't go hungry and do things. ”
"My nephew and grandson know, and my aunt and grandmother can rest assured." The king of Chu responded.
Coming out of the eldest princess's mansion, there was still only one carriage at the door, but this time there were two more small servants to follow the car, thinking that because of Mrs. Hou of Hucheng, the eldest princess was a little worried that there would be an accident.
As soon as Xue Jinyi sat down in the carriage, she heard the King of Chu ask: "You vaguely said to Mrs. Hou of Hucheng, 'Everything has cause and effect', you think that she can think about some things clearly, and want to understand that there is a debtor and a master, who killed her granddaughter?" ”
"As long as she thinks about it, it's enough." Xue Jinyi spread her hands, "I also told you, I have no conclusive evidence, I can't say it clearly, and now Mrs. Xue's mother and daughter and the Weiguo Mansion are grasshoppers on a rope, and it is not good for you and me to think about it too early." ”
King Chu thought for a moment, "So, you just want to distract the resentful Mrs. Hucheng Hou?" ”
Xue Jinyi clapped her hands and praised: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, you are really smart. ”
