043 Missing Fish
On the second day, an uninvited guest came from the royal palace.
That's a man in his twenties. He is obscene, skinny and tall. He looks like an unindustrible ruffian hooligan.
It was the housekeeper Nangong Ming who invited him to come in and sit in the hall waiting for the princess.
Before he came in, he shouted outside the gate of the royal palace for half a day, saying that he wanted the princess to go home with him, saying that the princess was pregnant with their flesh and blood and could not stay in the royal palace again, so that the child would not recognize his biological father...
It was really ridiculous. He was chased away and came back, and then he was chased away or came back. Nangong had nothing to do, so he let him go into the house and let him confront the princess to prove whether what he said was true or not.
Liu Xiangxiang was having breakfast. When she heard the maid Chuner report the progress of the matter, she was very happy. In order to buy this ruffian, she spent a whole hundred taels of silver. Now that the play has begun, she is waiting to see how Murong Xueyan loses her reputation.
Just after finishing the meal, Lu Mei and Yang Li also brought their maids. They also had a share in buying this land, and each of them paid 50 taels.
"That Liu Bai is waiting in the hall now. I guess that woman should go there at this time. Let's go to the theater. Liu Xiangxiang's waist and limbs twisted, with a proud smile on her face.
Lu Mei also followed her left and right, and the group went to the hall together. Liu Xiangxiang's prediction was wrong. Murong Xueyan was really calm and did not appear on the scene.
When the ruffian named Liu Bai first saw Liu Xiangxiang, he pointed to her, recognized her for a long time, and bullied Ai Ai and said, "You... you are, you are that lady!"
"Shut up, how did I ever recognize you?" Liu Xiangxiang said angrily, "I'll see the princess later. Don't talk nonsense, do you understand? Otherwise, my wife will send someone to arrest him!"
"Yes, yes." Liu Bai was scared out of a cold sweat and dared not talk nonsense any more.
After waiting for a long time, everyone saw Murong Xueyan coming with Xiurong's style. When Liu Bai first saw Murong Xue's beauty, he was so shocked that he opened his mouth and couldn't say a word. It took me a long time to think of collecting money and eliminating disasters with others, and said according to the lines prepared in advance, "Princess, I'm waiting for you! Your servants... They are so fierce that they won't let me in! I don't even think about who you are!"
"Oh, who am you?" Murong Xue looked at this man with poor acting skills like a spring breeze.
"Princess, how can you turn your face and not recognize anyone? You... You sneaked out of the palace again and again and met me. We... We still have children..." Liu Baitian continued to act shamelessly.
"Yo, I didn't expect our princess to be so watery that she dared to do such a thing behind the prince's back." Liu Xiangxiang took out a handkerchief and covered the contemptuous smile on her lips.
Murong Xueyan looked at Liu Bai calmly and asked, "Three or twice? Then tell me, what day is it? Where can I have a witness? Can I have physical evidence?
"This..." The lady didn't teach this in advance... Liu Bai stretched out his hand and scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
"You can't answer, because the so-called tryst is simply fictitious. It's a lie you made up. Say, who instructed you?" Murong Xueyan criticized harshly.
"No... No one instructed me, princess, we really, really..."
"What is it really? I ask you, do you know my name? How old are you this year? Do you know who my father is? Murong Xueyan kept asking questions.
Liu Bai's face is as white as his name.
"I will tell you that my surname is Murong and my name is Xueyan. My father, Murong Rui, is the prime minister of the current dynasty. I am also regarded as a righteous daughter by the empress dowager, and I am personally sealed as Princess Ping'an." Murong Xueyan said harshly and sneered, "If you don't even investigate my money clearly, you dare to take other people's money and slander me. Do you deserve it?"
"Princess, princess, it's not a big deal..." Liu Bai's legs trembled, "ploped" and knelt down and couldn't help kowtoing.
"Princess, why don't you admit what you have done?" Liu Xiangxiang was very anxious about Liu Bai's "incompetence" and hurriedly said, "You have never had sex with the prince, but you are even pregnant with a child. What is this child who is not a wild seed?"
"Is that right?" Murong Xueyan brushed her hair from her ears and smiled charmingly. "If I tell you that I'm not pregnant at all, do you believe it?"
"You...you..." Liu Xiangxiang was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Murong Xueyan was lazy to pay attention to her and ordered Xiurong to invite several young men in the royal palace.
"This ruffian dares to slander the innocence of my palace and beat me hard!" Murong Xueyan pointed to Liu Bai and ordered.
"Yes." The slings took orders, went to find a wooden stick, and immediately greeted Liu Bai.
After a few sticks, Liu Bai shouted in pain: "Don't fight! I... I'll tell you who bought me, I said! I said!"
It seems that sometimes it is necessary to use some punishments, such as dealing with this kind of ambitionless and cowardly ruffian.
"I tell you, if you dare to tell another lie, I will immediately gouge out your tongue!" Murong Xueyan warned viciously.
Liu Bai was so scared that he even urinated incontinence. There was a lot on the ground. He couldn't help kowtoing and saying, "It's a girl named Chun'er and a lady."
"Chun'er, is this girl?" Murong Xueyan pointed to Chun'er standing behind Liu Xiangxiang.
"Yes, and this lady." Liu Baishun also brought Liu Xiangxiang out.
"Hey, don't talk nonsense..."
"Liu Xiangxiang, yesterday you heard that I was happy and sent Xiangsui to buy abortion pills. I didn't pursue this matter with you. Well, you bought a ruffian more and slandered me!" Murong Xueyan said coldly, "Why, in this palace, if the prince is not here now, I can't be a home and cure you?"
"Princess...Princess, please spare your life?" Liu Xiangxiang was so scared that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately.
"Forgive your life? What can I forgive you? On the night of your first wedding in this palace, you provoked people's words and slander in an attempt to force me to death? Do you want to send Xiangsui undercover agents around this palace to inform you? Are you usually disrespectful to me? Or let you take medicine to kill this palace, and let you buy the ruffians to slander this palace? Murong Xueyan patted the table hard and doubled her voice. "I usually condone you, but I'm just thinking about home and everything. Just open one eye and close the other. Do you really think that I'm a soft persimmon, let you pinch and rub it? In addition to Princess Jing, this palace is also the princess of Ping'an, who was crowned by the Empress Dowager. Do you know the crime of slandering the princess?
"No... it's not fair." Liu Xiangxiang said, "They... they also have a share of money."
"Oh? Who are they? I'm very interested to know." Murong Xueyan picked up her arms leisurely.
"It's Yang Li and Lu Mei." Liu Xiangxiang also offered the other two.
Very good. This time you can take these three people in one pot and make the royal palace more comfortable, which is not like the smoky miasma in the past.
"Princess, we, we just came out of silver..." Lu Mei and Yang Li were also scared to kneel down.
"Just out of silver? Do you think I am a three-year-old child? It hasn't been a day or two for you and Liu Xiangxiang to share the same voice. Do you really think I don't know anything about it?
"..." Lu Mei and Yang Li looked at each other and were speechless.
"The slander county is mainly sentenced to the execution of tongue. You just wait to be punished!" Murong Xueyan made up a "tongue" punishment to intimidate them.
"No, no, no!" After the three said that, they closed their mouths tightly, as if they were about to be cut off their tongues immediately.
"It's okay if you want to be tortured. It's simple. Take your own maids, get out of the royal palace, and go back to your own mother's house!" Murong Xueyan said her conditions directly. This is also the purpose of her "set up" -
Drive the three women who are in the way out of the royal palace and live a quiet and comfortable life from then on.
"We...we want to see the prince!" Liu Xiangxiang cried and said, "You woman, you, you..."
"Come on, drive these six women out of the palace!" Murong Xueyan mercilessly ordered the little nage in the house.
"Princess, and Xiang Sui." Xiurong reminded that he ordered a young lady to go to the Xiangsui room to look for this "missing fish".
Unexpectedly, Xiangsui packed up the burden early at the time of the east window incident yesterday, and fled with the burden on his back when he was in chaos.
Everyone drove Liu Xiangxiang and his party out of the royal palace, and then Murong Xueyan asked the servants to tie Liu Bai and send them to the official for investigation. Since then, the recent farce of the royal palace has officially come to an end. With a look around, there is no woman who makes her feel uncomfortable all day long. As for how Nangongyi reacts when he comes back, this is not her concern.
After thinking about it, Murong Xueyan also felt that she was too cold. The three women who were kicked out by her had shared a bed with Nangongyi anyway. Even if Nangongyi had another love in her heart, they lived with Nangongyi. But... if you want to live a smooth life from now on, it is very necessary for these people to leave.
A few days later, Nangong Yi came back dusty. As soon as I entered the royal palace, I felt that the atmosphere was different. First of all, the three women who had always been chattering around him disappeared. Secondly, the palace was as cicadas, and there were no short and long sentences that could be heard occasionally.
Nangong Yi called Nangong Ming to inquire. Only then did he know that Liu Xiangxiang and other three people were set up by Murong Xueyan to fight back because they could not be slandered, and they were driven out of the royal palace in a fast way. Even he himself felt strange. He was not unhappy with Murong Xueyan's behavior. Instead, he appreciated her vigorous behavior from the bottom of his heart.
