Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 151 Rogue
Half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of Dingbei Hou's Mansion. Ming concubine opened the carriage and saw Director Li sending a Taoist priest out. Seeing her, the Taoist priest twitched his mouth, picked up the hexagram sail that comes standard with Taoist priests, walked away.

Ming concubine wants to laugh, this Taoist priest can dress up well, she really has such a fairy-tale look...

Xi'er came to help Ming Concubine get off the carriage, Ming Concubine looked at Mr. Li, "This is the Taoist priest the mansion is looking for, why did he leave?"

Director Li sighed, "Don't mention it, big girl, it's easier to ask God than to send God away."

Xi'er let out a cry, how could it be, Brother Zhao Cheng didn't want to come at all, he was afraid of revealing his secrets, and it was all to help the girl, how could he not leave?

Not to mention Xi'er, even Ming concubine felt that Mr. Li's words were unbelievable. Mr. Li greeted Wei Mingrou, and then Ming concubine entered the mansion with her. Xi'er moved down the emperor's reward and found a trustworthy The servant girl helped her take it to the inner courtyard together.

On the way, he inquired about something, "What's the matter with the Taoist priest?"

The little maid said, "This Taoist priest is elusive. I couldn't find it no matter how I searched for it before. Today, Mr. Li sent someone to look for it. I just ran into it when I went to the street. Please come back to the mansion. When I arrived at the gate of the Hou's mansion, the Taoist priest looked for it. The plaque said, it is okay to tell the fortune of the eldest girl, but he will never tell the fortune of the second girl. Director Li repeatedly assured that he just stepped into the mansion, and he went directly to the inner courtyard.

As a result, the second master said that he had something to ask him, and invited him to drink tea in the flower hall first. Before he could say a word, the Taoist priest shook his hand and dropped the teacup on the ground. The tea was highly poisonous. The Taoist priest got angry and wanted to sue him. The Hou's Mansion murdered him. Although Taoist priests have nothing to do with the Hou's Mansion, their words are formidable. Manager Li coaxed and persuaded him. It took a whole 100 taels of gold to calm the matter down. At this moment, the old lady is still angry Woolen cloth. "

Xi'er's eyes widened, "The Taoist said all good things, why did the second master kill the Taoist?"

"Hush!" The little girl wanted to cover her mouth, "Don't talk nonsense."

Xi'er bit her lip and didn't say anything more, in fact, she knew what was going on, what the girl wanted was for Erfang to kill the Taoist priest, so as to prove that the Taoist priest's words were effective, luckily Brother Zhao Cheng was smart and didn't fall for the trap, otherwise he would really She died in the Hou's mansion, how could the girl explain to Prince Zhennan's son?

In Changhui courtyard, the old lady was really angry. When Ming concubine entered the room, the second wife happened to be talking, "I said not to invite Taoist priests, sister-in-law and Ming concubine insisted, but in the end please come back with a rascal. It’s revealed, the Taoist priest poisoned the tea to frame our Marquis Mansion because he couldn’t save face, and almost went to court, this time, it’s right to waste money and eliminate disasters.”

Invite a Taoist priest, fate is not counted, instead it caused unpleasantness, and Su Shi was not happy, but she didn't like to hear what the second wife said, "Second brother and sister, are you blaming me and my concubine?"

The second wife said, "Although 1000 taels of silver is not much, it's a waste of money."

Ming concubine was amused in her heart, and she should be thankful if he was willing to give money to settle the matter. She even beat her up, and Ming concubine walked over and said, "Grandmother, I don't agree with the way our Marquis Mansion handles things, and my second aunt is not satisfied either. Since the Taoist is false accusation He cheats food, drink, and money. Now that our Hou Mansion knows about it, we should arrest him and go to see the officials. They say to see the officials, we should happily send him there, and we are not afraid of the shadow. Our Hou Mansion Acting frankly, are you afraid that he will be threatened by a powerless Taoist priest, and if you spread it out, you will not be laughed at? The fake Taoist priest should imprison him for ten or eight years, let him sit out the prison, and give him 1000 taels. Doesn't this prove that our Marquis Mansion has been poisoned?"

The Su family said indifferently, "Mother also thinks that the Hou family is not afraid of seeing officials, but your second uncle is afraid that if you make a big fuss, you will be impeached by the censor."

Ming concubine raised her eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "Is it true that the second uncle wanted to poison the Taoist priest to death?"

The second wife's expression changed, "Bastard! Is your second uncle like that?!"

She knew very well if she was such a person, she didn't know she was an asshole, and even scolded her as an asshole, the corner of Ming's mouth curled up into a sneer and said, "I know I shouldn't doubt my second uncle, but the Taoist priest said last time that he wouldn't tell his second sister's fortune, Afraid of getting killed, before entering the mansion today, he also said that he would not tell the fortune of the second younger sister. The second uncle hurriedly invited him to the side hall for tea, but it was still a cup of poisoned tea.

The Taoist priest is going to report to the official, but the second uncle still insists on taking the money to settle the matter. If this matter is told, who would not suspect that the Taoist priest was killed by the black hand of the second uncle?Ordinarily, the Taoist didn't say anything, just read the horoscope of the second sister and said, can she be a concubine? Come on, who said anything in the mansion, the second aunt can invite Taoist priests, why can't my mother and I invite them? "

The clear tone was as sweet as the sounds of nature, but it made the second wife's complexion horribly dark.

Wei Mingrou looked at Ming Concubine and said, "Don't say a few words, isn't Second Aunt feeling sorry for the mansion for paying 1000 taels for no reason?"

Ming concubine took a deep breath and laughed, "The Taoist priest hasn't gone far. I asked Mr. Li to bring the Taoist priest back. Since the second uncle has never done it, the maids and Taoist priests in the mansion have no grievances. I'm afraid he will turn the world upside down." What’s the matter, since I’m using the name of a living god to tell people’s fortunes, if the calculation is inaccurate, I’ll send him to see the official!”

Concubine Ming was very aggressive, the second master outside walked in, and said impatiently, "Calm down, it's only 1000 taels of silver, and my second wife is out!"

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.

The second wife chased them out.

As soon as they left, this topic couldn't be continued. Although the third wife and the fourth wife looked at me and I looked at you, I always felt that something was wrong with the second master. The second bedroom was very mean. Taoist, why did he kill Taoist?
The Su family also didn't want to make the Hou's house unhappy because of 1000 taels of silver, especially when Wei Mingrou came back. She said happily, "Why did you come back with your big sister?"

Wei Mingrou pouted and said, "Big sister will cause me trouble once she comes to the palace, I'm afraid of her."

As soon as the old lady heard it, she looked at Ming concubine and said, "Didn't you go to the palace to see the queen mother, what happened?"

Su Shi also looked at Ming Concubine and asked, "Why does the Empress Dowager ask you to enter the palace?"

They all stared at her, and waited for her to answer, Ming concubine had no choice but to reply, "Princess Jin and princess Jinyang came to apologize to me yesterday, but my mother and I were not here. Princess Jinyang thought I didn't forgive her, so he went to find the queen mother." To file a complaint, the Empress Dowager called me here for this, came out of Yongshou Palace, on the way Princess Huayang was playing Cuju, and hit me on the back, I passed out, and the emperor punished her for half a month."

Su Shi hurriedly asked, "Is the injury serious? Did you apply any medicine?"

Ming concubine shook her head, "It hurts a bit. I didn't take any medicine in the palace. I'll go back to Hanyuyuan to take medicine again. The third sister said that I caused trouble for her. I don't understand."

Wei Ming said softly, "Princess Huayang didn't do it on purpose. The emperor punished her. Can't you help me to say a few good words for my sake? If you help intercede, the emperor will definitely spare her. Punishment, let me whisper to you..."
