After rebirth, the princess made and dragged

Chapter 16 All killed with a stick

The Buddhist hall was located in Changning Garden, so the fact that Gu Mingshu slapped Ruan Meiniang away could not be hidden from Chu Jiyao.

While adjusting Chu Jiyao's cloak, Grandma Chen said: "My dear, are you still worried about the little princess suffering a loss? After all, she is a tiger girl in the general family, she is so fierce!"

Chu Jiyao smiled and said: "I thought she was transparent and smart before, but I was worried that she would suffer a loss from the Ruan family because of her fear of Xiao Yue. Now it seems that I am afraid that Xiao Yue will suffer a loss from her because of the Ruan family."

"Why do you sound so happy when the young prince has suffered a loss?" Grandma Chen disagreed a little.

Chu Jiyao said easily: "This kid is rebellious. Wouldn't it be great to have someone who can cure him? In the past two days, I only thought that this little girl was just good. Now I feel really relieved."

Grandma Chen sighed: "The little princess is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. She is very good. I am just afraid that if she is too good, Anhe Hall will not tolerate her."

"The news must have spread over there, right?" Chu Jiyao asked lightly.

Chen Ma said: "I got it, I heard that people have been arranged by Xuelou to spread the reputation of the little princess as fierce and jealous. But you don't have to worry, I have asked Qingniao and the others to deal with it."

Chu Jiyao pondered for a moment and then said firmly: "Recall them and let them go."

Grandma Chen was surprised and said: "Don't you want to help the little princess?"

Chu Jiyao said: "Everything the little girl does after passing through the door has a purpose."

"She broke up with Xiao Yue on her wedding day just to show off her attitude; she deliberately admitted her mistake by serving tea to secretly establish rules on the high ground; she seemed impulsive when she took over the family power, but she didn't take over the accounts.

Quan has avoided danger again. I am afraid that my cruel intentions towards Ruan today are far-reaching."

Grandma Chen was speechless for a while: Madam, are you overthinking it? She is a newlywed, no matter how arrogant she was in her parents' family, if she has a reputation of being fierce and jealous within a few days of her marriage, what good can she do?

Chu Jiyao held her chin with one hand and said with emotion: "Hey, if I had known she was so interesting, I would have stayed a few more days to see the excitement. Unfortunately, the news has been delivered, and it is difficult to change my mind."

However, due to the excellent efficiency of the maids at Tingxue Tower, Chu Jiyao finally caught up with the excitement.

*

In the afternoon, Chu Jiyao set off, and Gu Mingshu and Qin Yue, as sons and daughter-in-law, had to see each other off.

Seeing Qin Yue coming alone, Gu Mingshu asked strangely: "Why didn't Sister Ruan come?"

Qin Yue said coldly: "Why didn't she come? You didn't know why?"

Gu Mingshu looked innocent: "As a concubine with an ultimatum, her mother cannot travel, and she did such an unfilial and disloyal thing. I am very shocked. How do I know why?"

Qin Yue's face turned dark with anger: "Gu Mingshu, you have to have a certain attitude even when you get a bargain. You..."

"Qin Yue," Chu Jiyao in the carriage raised her hand and opened the curtain, "is it difficult for you to tell her directly that the Ruan family has not signed a written ultimatum and is not worthy of coming to me to fulfill her filial piety? The most important thing when a husband and wife get along is to be honest.

.”

Ruan Meiniang didn't submit the ultimatum? Gu Mingshu's eyes widened in surprise and couldn't help but look at Qin Yue.

A concubine who does not have a written ultimatum, no matter how nice her name is, is still a lowly status that can be given away to others at will. Although Qin Yue has no real power now, it is not difficult to get a good status and a written ultimatum for his sweetheart.

But it doesn’t happen, why?

Qin Yue changed the subject without changing his expression: "Let's set off when mother is ready. Xishan Temple is a long way away. If we continue, it will be dark at the foot of the mountain."

Chu Jiyao said: "If you think I talk too much, just do less things that don't make sense. I can speak clearly in one sentence, but go around in circles just for the sake of face. It seems to be a disease."

Gu Mingshu almost couldn't help but laugh out loud, and thought to herself: Isn't it just that she is quite sick? She really knows her son better than her mother.

Qin Yue did not want to continue talking and looked at Rong Changfeng. Rong Changfeng nodded to him to indicate that everything was ready, and he announced that he was setting off.

However, at this moment, a horse team came galloping over, and the leader shouted: "Slow down!"

In a blink of an eye, he rushed forward. The leader dismounted from his horse and ran directly to Chu Jiyao's carriage. He saluted and said, "Gu Heng, General Dingyuan's Mansion, please see the Princess of Chu."

"It turns out he's Xiao Shu's brother, please get up quickly." Chu Jiyao ordered someone to open the curtain and made a supporting gesture in the air.

Gu Heng did not move: "Today, I am bold and want to ask Princess Chu to seek justice."

As soon as he finished speaking, his guards unloaded four or five sacks from their horses in front of the palace gate.

Qin Yue stepped forward to help Gu Heng and frowned: "My mother is not in good health. I don't care about trivial matters. My uncle, you might as well talk to me after I send my mother out of the city."

Gu Heng sneered: "You are biased in doing things, I don't believe you."

The sacks were opened, and several women dressed in the costumes of the servants of the Hailing Palace were tied up and gagged.

At this time, Gu Mingshu looked like she had recovered from the shock and exclaimed: "Brother, what are you doing? These are all the ladies purchased by the Hailing Palace. Why did you tie them all up? Cui Wei

, hurry up and untie the nuns."

Gu Heng glared at his sister with hatred, and said sternly: "Before we have an explanation, whoever dares to loosen the bonds of these unruly slaves today will be tied up together, and will be punished with the same punishment as these unruly slaves!"

Qin Yue looked at the onlookers who appeared in small groups around him, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot: "Not to mention what these slaves did. Gu Heng, are you planning to try the case on the street?"

Gu Heng didn't say anything, but he heard Chu Jiyao in the carriage say: "General Gu must have been on the street, and he caught them after they had done something bad. Why not interrogate them in the street now?"

She continued to add slowly: "Although I have not done anything for many years, I still know that nothing can exceed the word 'fair'. Just make it clear at the door! Let everyone comment together."

"Princess Chu really understands justice."

Gu Heng clasped his fists, and then told the story of how these servants spread rumors to slander Gu Mingshu.

Finally, he added: "I know that Prince Hailing is dissatisfied with this marriage, but after His Majesty granted the marriage, I was the only one who knelt in front of the royal study and begged to take it back. I am the only one who cares about the family."

"The prince doesn't want to but refuses, and my sister wants to marry you even though she knows you don't like it. You two are willing to fight and suffer. How you live behind closed doors is your own business. No one can say anything about the other. But

Who are these people on the ground? Are they worthy enough to humiliate me, the legitimate daughter of the Gu family?"

At this time, the people arranged by Gu Mingshu to watch the crowd also began to exert their strength.

"I heard that this young lady from the Gu family has a gentle and gentle temperament. If she is really that fierce, I'm afraid there will be an uproar on the wedding day."

"Yeah, it's really outrageous that she, a royal concubine, was forced to go through the side door on her wedding day. She didn't make any fuss at that time, which shows that she is really a docile person."

"Even the servants dare to bully others, and the methods in the backyard will only become worse. Miss Gu is so pitiful."

"That's because she wants to marry herself."

"If you refuse to marry when you are offered marriage, isn't that not disobeying the decree?"

"It is said that clay figures have three-part nature. If what these ladies say is true, then what on earth did the oiran do that was more outrageous than stealing the spotlight on her wedding day?"

"Well, to tell you the truth, I heard a little bit about my sister working in Prince Hailing's Mansion..."

Gossip is human nature.

Everyone's attention was immediately taken away.

The person arranged by Gu Mingshu cleverly and truthfully described to the onlookers a story about how Bai Lianhua wanted to achieve his goal of ascending to the throne by smearing and suppressing the principal wife.

Regardless of who arranged the arrangements for the servant girls, it was all because of Ruan Meiniang, so it would not be unfair for her to take the blame...

Chu Jiyao naturally noticed what was going on among the onlookers. After hearing that Gu Mingshu's people had taken control of the scene, she knew what the little daughter-in-law was going to do next.

She stopped watching the excitement and planned to help Gu Mingshu.

"Xiao Shu is now the legitimate mistress of our Hailing Palace. These women are betraying their master by slandering her. Why not..." Chu Jiyao said lightly: "Kill them all with a stick to serve as a warning to others."
