Houfu poisonous girl can't be bullied

Chapter 41

"Your Majesty, minister, I really didn't know that something like this would happen in Cangzhou! Your Majesty, I have lived in the capital for a long time, and the fief of Cangzhou has not been taken care of for a long time. I don't know that the slaves in Cangzhou are so bad. As for the governor and local officials Collusion, I have never seen these people before, how can I collude!" Sun Jian kowtowed his head with a "bang", and then pushed everything to his servants and housekeepers.

Many things can be done in five days, Li Zhuo can find out the cause and effect of the matter, and he can also put all the blame on the housekeeper.

"Do you still dare to call for injustice in front of the palace? The evidence is convincing, and you dare to say that you are wronged! The Ministry of Rites has a minister like you to be in such a mess! Come, draft an order, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, Sun Jian, has never behaved well, and his morals are disrespectful. Dismiss his minister All the officials belonging to the Sun family will be demoted to one level and punished for one year!" As soon as Li Fengyi said that, the hall was full of begging for mercy.

Some complained for themselves, and some pleaded for Sun Shangshu.

"Your Majesty, Sun Shangshu's dismissal is not an exaggeration. It's just that it's time to worship the river god and water god. If Sun Shangshu is dismissed at this time, I'm afraid it will delay the sacrifice."

Li Zhuo didn't expect the emperor to send Sun Jian down like this, and Sun Jian was taken aback, and quickly jumped out to talk about the pros and cons, "Moreover, various evidences from the Ministry of Punishment show that Sun Shangshu did commit the crime of lax command, but this crime is not enough to make him Dismissal and investigation."

After hesitating for a while, Li Fengyi changed the edict, "The official position of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites will not change, the fine will be served for three years, the fief will be taken back, the land will be returned to the tenants, and then the dead families will be compensated 500 taels of silver per person! Several other Sun family members The official remains the same, it is a warning to you! Sun Shangshu, this time you have to restrain your servants and your relatives!"

"The next official obeys the order..." After finally keeping the black hat, Sun Jian was frightened into a cold sweat, glanced at Li Zhuo and let out a long sigh of relief.

It's just a punishment and a withdrawal of the reward. As long as the official position is still there, everything will be fine.

But Sun Qionghe...

After the court, Sun Jian rushed home without looking back, not even paying attention to the other bureaucrats of the Sun family.Sun Qionghe's mother, Mrs. Xu, didn't know what happened. Seeing Sun Jian's expression was wrong, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Master, but what happened?"

"You still have the face to say it! You have given birth to a good daughter, but this time I can completely embarrass myself!"

With a sound of "bang", Sun Jian smashed the blue and white porcelain teacup beside him to pieces. Mrs. Xu was taken aback, and hurried over to appease him, "Master, don't get angry, but what did Qiong He do outside?"

"Hmph!" Sun Jian didn't answer, and turned to find the butler to ask him to summon the clansmen to the mansion.

"Master!" Seeing Sun Jian's order, Xu was terrified, so she pretended to ask the servant girl to report to Sun Qionghe, to find out what happened by herself.

"What happened to make the master alarm the people?"

"What's the matter? The daughter-in-law of my dignified minister of etiquette actually made a foreign room in the Hou's mansion without a matchmaker. She is shameless, and I want it!"

As soon as Sun Jian's words fell, Xu's face turned ashen.Back then, when Sun Qionghe and Lu Hengtao were having an affair, Sun Jian kept saying that he wanted to expel Sun Qionghe from the family. Today, Sun Qionghe must have done something to make such a big fuss.

It's no wonder Xu's ignorance of the seriousness, it's because the husband and wife have no feelings for each other.Sun Jian hadn't spent the night in Mrs. Xu's room for many years. During the day, Mrs. Xu was the majestic head of the house, but at night, it was just a decoration.In recent days, Sun Jian was even more angry because of Sun Qionghe's incident, and he didn't want to see Xu Shi at all.The woman in the deep house didn't know what happened outside, and Sun Jian didn't say anything, so she was still confused about everything now.

Not long after, several patriarchs of the Sun family came, along with several bureaucrats from the same clan who greeted Sun Jian in the morning but he had no time to take care of.

"I invite you here today to be a witness. From now on, my Sun family will not have such a shameless daughter as Sun Qionghe!"

In the meeting hall, Mrs. Xu was not allowed to enter, but her voice came out undisturbed.Hearing Sun Jian's resolute words in it, Mrs. Xu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and kept sending her maids to ask why Sun Qionghe didn't come.

"My lord can think so. It's great. Now that Mrs. Sun has entered the Marquis of Weiyuan, we can't deal with it rashly. If we slip this person out of the genealogy, then what she's doing will at least not cause trouble." us."

The one who spoke was Sun Zhi, the former Minister of Rites and the current Minister of Rites.He and Sun Jian are brothers of the same clan. Although he has a certain relationship with Sun Jian to have this job, he really relied on his own strength.Now being implicated inexplicably by Sun Qionghe, the position of servant who had finally climbed up was flattened by one level and became a servant, how could he not be aggrieved.

Sun Jian said that today, regardless of whether he was angry or not, but he supported Sun Jian's decision.At least he won't be implicated in such inexplicable ways in the future.

With the agreement of several other tribesmen, Sun Jian took out the genealogy and slid Sun Qionghe's name in front of everyone, saying that he would never have this daughter again.

In Weiyuan Hou Mansion, Sun Qionghe felt that the sun was just right today, and it would be great if he could go out for a walk, so he took Lu Mingmei and Qiuxiang, the maid beside him, out to burn incense, and when he came back, he saw Lamei, the maidservant next to his mother, anxiously in the yard walking around.

Seeing Sun Qionghe coming back, Lamei hurriedly walked over to meet her, and said anxiously: "Miss, you should go back and have a look. The master asked his clansmen to come over, and it seems that he is talking about you!"

Sun Qionghe was startled, but quickly calmed down again, "Just wait for a while, I'll come after changing clothes."

After entering the inner room, Lu Mingmei looked at Sun Qionghe with a puzzled expression, not understanding why she was so flustered.

"Mother, what happened? Why do you look so bad?"

"It's okay, kid, you wait for me at home, and I'll come back as soon as I go." How could it be okay, when Lamei just said it, Sun Qionghe guessed what would happen.

That day Lu Heng came over and said a few words, and then Sun Qionghe's heart kept on going, and today he went to burn incense to pray that the Buddha would keep the Sun family safe.

She didn't hear that Sun Jian was dismissed today, only his salary was deducted, his fief was taken back, and he was fined. She was immediately relieved.

But she didn't expect that this matter was not over yet.My father must have brought his clansmen here to talk about her.

Alas, it is true that she made a mistake. If you were not bewitched by Lu Hengtao, would she be able to do this now?I don't know if I can go back and beg my father now, whether I can let myself go because of blood relationship.

Changing into plain white clothes, Sun Qionghe didn't bring much jewelry, and hurried to the Sun Mansion.As a result, he was stopped by the servant when he reached the door, "I'm sorry, the master ordered you not to go in!"

"Presumptuous, do you know who I am!" Sun Qionghe was furious, raised his hand and slapped the servant in the face.

The servant dodged deftly, but he didn't let go of his blocking hand. His eyes were lowered, but his mouth was not at all humble. "My master said that from now on, you will only be the aunt of the Lu family."

"What? I'm the eldest lady, how can I be the aunt of the Lu family!" Sun Qionghe's face turned pale immediately. She thought about how Sun Jian would scold her and beat her, but she didn't expect that Sun Jian would not even give her a chance to meet. He just didn't recognize her as a daughter.

"There is no eldest lady in the Sun House. The master said that the eldest lady died of illness 15 years ago. If you have nothing to do, please leave early, otherwise we will not be able to bear the blame if the master blames me." The servant spoke politely, but his eyes I can't hide my disdain anymore.

Sun Qionghe wanted to continue talking, but seeing the impatient look in the other party's eyes, he took a step back and said aggrievedly: "Then can you tell Madam that I'm here?"

"Master said, no matter who is here, Aunt Sun will not be able to report."

One sentence cut off all Sun Qionghe's thoughts. Today, the gate of the Sun Mansion is doomed, but she doesn't want to just go back.

After walking two steps back, Sun Qionghe lifted her skirt and knelt directly in front of the gate of the Sun Mansion: "My daughter knows that she has made a mistake and dare not ask her father to forgive her. Since her father is so angry today, my daughter will make amends here. When will the father lose his temper, and when will the daughter wake up again!"

The voice was loud and clear, and passers-by could hear it clearly. After a short time, it spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, followed by the fact that the gate of the Sun Mansion was completely surrounded.

Ordinary people have never seen this kind of private affairs in the homes of high-ranking officials, and they took it as a joke when they heard some of it. Now that there is a lot of fun to watch, of course they invite friends to come and surround Sun Qionghe in the middle, just waiting for Sun Jian to come out. See what he does.

A head poked out from behind the gate of the Sun Mansion, glanced at the crowd outside, and quickly put it back.Standing at the second door, Mrs. Xu saw the servant girl coming back and quickly asked, "How is it, how is it?"

"Ma'am, the young miss just kneels at the gate in broad daylight, and the servants at the gate don't inform the master, just let the young lady kneel like that. From now until now, there is a stick of incense when she kneels."

After hearing the maid's words, Mrs. Xu became dizzy for a while, and when she was about to fall, she was supported by the maid behind her. She looked in the direction of the study and burst into tears.

Crying for his daughter, crying for the cruel Sun Shangshu.

The sun was getting higher and higher, and the sunshine at the end of March was already a bit poisonous. Sun Qionghe knelt on the ground, the people around him dispersed, and new people came over. His mouth was dry, his tongue was dry, he was dizzy, but he didn't dare to get up.

For himself and for Lu Mingmei.

One hour, two hours, three hours...

Kneeling from morning to afternoon, finally before dinner, the butler of the Sun Mansion came out, stood on the high steps of the Sun Mansion and said with a melancholy expression: "The master said, Aunt Sun should go back quickly, my Sun family is in charge of the Ministry of Rites , put etiquette first, I don’t know such a person who doesn’t know etiquette, righteousness, and shame.”
