Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Report
Translator: 549690339
Jia Yong was very obedient. The two people saw the commotion in the house and hid far away, returning to report to the manor. This lowly one originally wanted to return to the manor later and then return to the throne, but heard that there was a ruckus over at Scholarflower Alley. It turned out to be the Yuan family. It seems that even the heavens have eyes and do not want Wifey to marry into that kind of family.”
Xiao Baoxin smiled when he heard that. How far was Scholarflower Alley from the Xie Manor? Would this place immediately know when there was a commotion over there?
“No matter what, that person did things well. Furen said to reward him. Butler, wait for my mother’s instructions.”After saying that, she instructed Tang Li to take out a hundred taels of silver from her account and give it to Jia Yong. He knew how to conduct himself, and she was not a rash person. It was good to reward him for his meritorious deeds, and it was good to seal the mouths of her subordinates.
“I can rest assured that the butler will do his job. I’ll have to trouble you with this.”
Jia Yong had the intention to chant a dumb Zen. If the big lady could understand it, she would understand it. However, he did not expect her to not only understand it but also do it.
In the past, when Eldest Lady was in the Inner Residence, Jia Yong had never come into contact with her. He only heard that the servants feared Eldest Lady like a tiger and only said that she had always been strict, so he did not think much of it. The current situation was obvious. She was even more powerful than the mistress of the house. She could be civil or martial. She could use a knife, a gun, and a fire to burn people’s houses. She could use a subtle move to win people’s hearts. She really could not be underestimated.
Jia Yong put away his contemptuous heart and respectfully thanked the reward.
Before Xiao Baoxin’s cup of tea had even warmed, she saw Jia Yong’s pale face float in. If it weren’t for the shadow on the ground, she would have suspected that it was a ghost who had come in. His expression was too scary.
“Niangniang, Niangniang, Niangniang…”
“What is it?” Xiao Baoxin could not help but turn serious. Jia Yong did not look like a coward. Ordinary things could not scare him. Looking at his expression, it was a barometer. The situation must be extremely serious.
As expected, Jia Yong straightened his expression and lowered his voice.
“Quickly prepare yourself. Someone from the palace wants to invite you to the palace. He said it was… The Yuan family filed a complaint to the emperor, accusing you… He intended to poison the Ninth Lady of the Yuan family.”
It was indeed a big matter to alarm the palace.
“Intentions?” Xiao Baoxin calmed down when he heard that it was related to Yuan Jiuniang.” So you’re not dead?”Murder? Using laxatives to drag people to death?
What, did he really want to be poisoned to death?
“He didn’t die.”
The main point was that if he reported it to the emperor, his wife would be scared silly and not understand, or if she was bold and skilled, she would be upright and not afraid of her shadow being slanted-even if it was slanted, she would be beaten right!
“.. However, someone from the palace came. It was Wei Desheng, who was favored by the Emperor. Now Furen is dealing with the front and sent me to invite Niangzi over. At the same time, I want you to be mentally prepared. If you don’t meet the Sage, you will meet the Empress.”
Xiao Baoxin nodded and instructed Tang Li to freshen up and change into her usual clothes. She was so calm that it was as if she had accepted an invitation from a close friend.
Just this calmness, Jia Yong felt ashamed of his inferiority. His admiration for his wife was like the surging river water, continuous and endless, like the Yellow River flooding.
“Let’s go.”
Jia Yong was still sighing when he finally saw Xiao Baoxin walk out leisurely. Beside him were four of her guardians. He was full of vigor and did not look like he was going to bow his head and admit his guilt. Instead, he looked like he was going to cause trouble.
Thinking of Xiao Baoxin’s calmness when facing the palace, his wit when setting fire to people’s houses, and his scheme to use money to seal people’s mouths, even if she really poisoned the Ninth Lady of the Yuan Family, he believed that she would be able to escape unscathed!
Xiao Baoxin naturally did not know what Jia Yong was thinking. If he knew, he would have to thank him for trusting her ability.
Everyone praised her for her beauty, but she actually had a brain. How many people scolded her behind her back for having a face? God knew how depressed she was. Other than her face, she clearly had a brain!
“Impossible. I, Jia Bao Xin, would never poison her. She is a good child. Even if he was bullied, he would at most hit him back. He would not use such despicable methods as poisoning.”
Madam Xie cried and pulled Wei Desheng, refusing to let go. She was still very confident in her daughter.
“Eunuch, please tell the emperor.”
Wei Desheng was speechless. Shixing County Duke was fighting outside. Not to mention that his daughter didn’t poison someone, even if she did, it wasn’t a good time to pursue the matter. This Madam Xie was so concerned that she was confused. Why did she drag him along and say something?
No matter how she looked at it, it didn’t sound like a compliment for her daughter.
If he couldn’t poison them, would he be a good person if he hit them back? What kind of alternative explanation was this?
He had the intention to say that the Emperor would make the final judgment, but he felt sorry for the stack of banknotes in his arms.
It was fine if other families received a red envelope or a big red envelope when they received the imperial edict. However, her family did not accept the imperial edict and was also rewarded when they were brought into the palace for investigation.
The other party was rewarded with gold and silver, while her family was rewarded with a stack of silver notes.
If he didn’t accept it, he would be at a loss. There were at least ten cards, not five taels each. If he could take it out and throw it at the Emperor’s face, this was the Xie family slapping the Emperor’s face.
“Madam, don’t worry. The Emperor knows the Great General. He is dedicated to the court and the Emperor. The daughter he raised will definitely not be wrong. Why would he do such a thing? There must be a misunderstanding. “Wei Desheng used his usual gentle and perfunctory tone to the concubines of the harem and said,
“It’s good that this misunderstanding has been explained. I heard that your residence and the Yuan residence are in-laws…”
“Don’t say that. That young man from the Yuan family is not a good person. He actually played with men and was exposed. Our family was about to break off the engagement with his family.’”‘Father-in-law, do you think it’s possible that the villain in their family is the first to complain?” Madam Xie suddenly became smart.”
“Oh? There’s such a thing?” Wei Desheng survived Madam Xie’s panic earlier, and his gossipy soul was instantly ignited. “Furen with me, I have to report to the emperor when I return.”
“That kid from the Yuan family is used to putting on an act. The last time he came to my house, he pretended to be a human and a dog. He promised us that he would treat my daughter well wholeheartedly. All the rumors were just misunderstandings. We thought that a noble family had to have some face. Since he killed someone like this, we would forgive him. Who knew that today would be a farce? It was completely ridiculous.”
When Xiao Baoxin arrived at the front hall, he heard Madam Xie vividly talk about the fire in Scholarflower Alley. She even found out that the little fatty was actually a branch of the Langya Wang family.
Madam Xie wasn’t there, but it was even more exciting than when she was there. Her story was full of ups and downs.
Wei Desheng’s face did not have any hair on it, and his slender eyes were surging with soul-power. His blood was boiling as he listened, and from time to time, he even praised,
“Oh, really?”
“Really?”
“Wow, it’s actually like this!”
•
Xiao Baoxin felt that he had appeared at the wrong time. The two of them could chat like soulmates that were hard to find thousands of miles away.
“Eunuch…My daughter, Xiao Baoxin…”
Wei Desheng took a glance at it, and his eyes flashed with amazement.. The rumored number one beauty in Jiankang was indeed worthy of her reputation!
