Zongren Mansion, value room.
Yaqib and Grandma Yun were both brought here.
Because the eighth prince was accompanying them, the couple did not have chains on them.
Prince Jian has come back from the palace and told Sunu and Tenth Brother about the lawsuit between Prince Xinjun and Prince Kang.
Sunu was also speechless. He really didn't expect that only a few clothed slaves could make such a big noise.
The eighth prince is in bad luck this time.
Brother Ninth is still sick and suffering, so he can't get close to him.
We can't clean up a few old brand palaces, so the eighth prince can only take the lead.
The 10th prince's face became more and more ugly, and he regretted not taking care of Yaqib earlier.
When the eighth prince came in with a wry smile, the three of them looked at him without knowing what to say.
It is indeed the eighth prince's fault that he over-promoted the nanny and allowed him to have such a bold temper. But it would be unfair to say that it was all the eighth prince's fault.
Yaqib, an old guy, now has his first "respectability".
The emperor spoke twice, once for "severe punishment" and once for "increased punishment".
The eighth elder brother met Prince Jian and Sunu, and then said to the tenth elder brother: "I have heard about Shi Gui, but I didn't expect Yaqibu to be involved."
The tenth brother glanced at him and said: "Brother, I would like to ask the eighth brother, okay, why does Yaqibu hate the ninth brother? Just because the ninth brother kicked him last year and destroyed a shop? He relies on his old age and betrays his old age. When the prince's brother is called upon, he just kicks him twice without any other punishment. Is this Yourong's mistake?"
The eighth prince was sarcastic, but in front of everyone, he did not speak for Yaqib anymore. He only said: "Last year, he offended people outside and was followed several times. He thought he was from the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Maybe it was because of this. Because of this, resentment arose."
Prince Jian looked at the eighth elder brother, sighed, and said: "Prince Xinjun went to Prince Kang's Mansion this morning because of his brother's theft. He was so excited that he had a miscarriage. Prince Xinjun complained to the emperor. The emperor said that he would punish Yaqi. If the crime is punished by one degree, I will also ask the guilty brother."
The eighth prince's face turned pale, and he nodded: "That's how it should be."
People have been brought.
The Holy Order was also requested.
Prince Jian did not let the tenth prince come to interrogate him anymore, but he sat in the main seat in the hall, with Sonu and the tenth prince on his left hand, and the eighth prince on his right.
When Yaqibu was brought in, Prince Jian recounted Shi Gui's confession and said, "Did you encourage Shi Gui to target the 'Baiweiju' business?"
Yaqibu hurriedly said: "The villain is wronged, but the business of 'Baiweiju' is good. The slaves praised him a few times outside and said, 'We are enemies in the same industry.' Shi Gui's own business was poor and he had bad thoughts. It makes no sense to just use a few words of a villain as a cover..."
Prince Jian looked at the guards on both sides and said, "Let him know the truth of the clan's mansion by hitting twenty boards first!"
Yaqibu was stunned when he heard this and looked at the eighth prince next to him.
He thought that since the Eighth Prince had a seat in the hall, for the sake of the Eighth Prince, he would ask more gently, so that he could speak plausibly without any guilt.
The guards obeyed the order, immediately pulled Yaqibu down, pressed him down on the bench next to him, lifted up his clothes, waved the board, waved the board, and started fighting.
No man can bear this.
The pain in my body was worse, but the shame and anger alone were unbearable.
Yaqib almost fainted, but was woken up by the pain again.
The eighth prince didn't expect Prince Jian to ask a question, so he went directly to the board and looked at Prince Jian.
Prince Jian looked at the eighth prince and said, "This old slave is cunning. He doesn't know the truth and only takes chances."
The eighth prince's heart sank.
This is not what Prince Jane meant.
This is what the royal father meant.
The royal father would be blamed for the offending of the Ninth Prince's elder brother by the ceremony at Prince Zhuang's palace, and the theft by the in-laws of Prince Xin's palace from the Ninth Prince's palace.
Yaqib rolled his eyes in shame and anger.
But Shi Gui didn't just talk in vain and bit Yaqibu. When did he eat the wine, how many people were at the table, and what words were heard by someone sitting nearby.
Both witness and physical evidence are available.
Yaqib refused to admit it at first, and after two rounds of beatings, he relaxed and said: "You are a little man who cares about our master. He has always been friendly to his brothers and treated the ninth master as his brother. The ninth master also treated our master with respect, but since Master Jiu was getting married. He was instigated by Jiu Fujin and alienated our master. He even extorted two properties from the villain’s master. The villain was unhappy and complained outside..."
Prince Jian and Sonu frowned after hearing this.
This is the hateful thing about Diao Nu. Not only does he want to bite the ninth elder brother, but he also wants to bite Nvjuan.
The eighth prince's face turned red and he said, "What are you talking about? Just shut up!"
The tenth prince sneered: "If I hadn't watched from beginning to end, I would have told you to confuse right and wrong! It seems that you are really confused. It is obvious that your master alienated his brothers after their wedding, which happened in May of the year before last. , the emperor remembers the rift between the first institute and the second institute, if it really has something to do with the female volume, the mistress of the first institute is also involved!"
Having said this, he looked at Yaqib and said: "As for the good prince Fujin, how could he be so angry and so angry with the sky and the earth? Should I still ask you two? You two have stayed. An old girl treats her head as her own territory, how can she irritate the mistress?"
The eighth elder brother couldn't listen anymore and whispered: "Tenth brother, please stop saying a few words and leave some dignity for me."
The tenth elder brother looked at the eighth elder brother, with a drooped face and deep eyes, and said: "Just now when this slave bit the ninth brother for being disrespectful and the ninth sister-in-law was unkind, why didn't the eighth brother think about leaving some points for the ninth brother and the ninth sister-in-law? Decent?"
Yaqib made such a big fuss, and his confession received little attention.
According to his words, it seems that Ninth Brother "brought it to himself", while he himself is "loyal to protect the Lord", and he is covering up his mistakes, which is extremely abominable.
The tenth prince looked at Prince Jian and said: "Babeile is in the middle of the game, so I might be deceived, but I am a bystander and know the importance of this slave couple in the Babeile Mansion. One is in charge, and the other is in charge. The general affairs of the Baylor Mansion treat the serious female mistress as a decoration. Last year, Ba Fujin first had a miscarriage and then became ill. There is a possibility that this slave couple is persecuting selfishly. Please investigate this matter thoroughly!"
The eighth prince changed his expression and looked at the tenth prince with anger.
The tenth prince looked calm.
He knew that he couldn't follow Yaqib's confession, otherwise it would draw outside attention to the Ninth Prince's Mansion.
At that time, no matter what is black or white, no one will care about right or wrong, and it will arouse criticism and become a topic of conversation.
Then we need to reveal bigger news to draw everyone's attention away from Brother Jiu and his wife.
Prince Jian saw that the tenth prince had selfish motives, but he did not stop him.
After all, he knew that the emperor had already made a decision.
Be it Yaqibu or Babeile Mansion, they were introduced by the emperor to appease the anger of the clan and princes.
His face was a little tense, and he looked at the Eighth Prince and said, "Babeile, if it involves the blood of the emperor's grandson, it is not just a matter of Babeile's family..."
The tenth prince is really not just talking nonsense.
This daughter of Yaqibu is now making love in the backyard of Babeile. It is reasonable to say that the old couple had their own selfish plans.
The eighth prince's face was filled with shame and anger, but his heart was racing very fast.
The matter has come to this, and he cannot stop it if he wants to.
But it's also an opportunity.
Husband and wife are in rivalry, both are prosperous and humiliated.
Guo Luoluo made many mistakes in the past two years, and all his elders were offended.
But that was his first wife. If he stayed at home like this, his relationship with Prince An's Mansion would only be awkward in the future, and he would be missing the female link in socializing with the outside world.
Let’s not talk about others, let’s just say that the fourth brother and Lao Jiu have had bad tempers since they were young, but now they are in a different situation, because the two sisters-in-law are close to each other.
Now Guo Luoluo has learned a lesson and his temper has calmed down.
The eighth prince sighed heavily and said: "Check it out, it's all my fault. I only treat them as minor servants and family members. I don't think of anything else..."
*
The Ninth Prince's Mansion, the back building.
When Brother Ninth came over, he caught up with Shu Shu debating with the elders.
"You can't sleep with a flat head. Not to mention your big face, it will also affect your health..."
According to the old Manchu custom, it is more popular for children to "sleep with their heads flattened" because this will make their temples plump, giving them a "celestial plump" appearance.
Jue Luo Shi shook his head and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? This has been the case for generations, but I was negligent when it came time to take care of you. I have been laughed at for several years, saying that I don't know how to take care of children. You were called 'ugly girl' when you were little, have you forgotten?"
Shu Shu shook his head and said, "What's wrong with my daughter? Does she look better than Zhudang and others now?"
There is also Fu Song, whose facial features are similar to Zhuliang, but he looks more delicate and pleasing to the eye than Zhuliang, just because he lacks the big face.
Mrs. Bo was standing by, looking at Shu Shu's face. It was not much bigger than a palm, and looked more delicate than other girls.
"Not to mention affecting appearance, how can it also affect health?" Mrs. Bo asked.
Shu Shu made a gesture on his head and said: "The head here is full of brains. It originally looked like walnut kernels. If one side has to be flattened, will the walnut kernels inside not be deformed? Good luck, kid. He's just stupid and not smart; or his eyes are underdeveloped on both sides, squinting or something; he's just unlucky, and he's just stupid..."
Jue Luo Shi: "..."
Although I don’t believe it in my heart, it’s not good to force the child to sleep with his head flat.
Mrs. Bo was even more worried and said hurriedly: "Then don't sleep with Bian Tou, don't sleep with Bian Tou..."
Brother Jiu has been here for a long time, standing at the door and listening without interrupting, and his mother-in-law didn't even see him.
After listening to Shu Shu's words, he touched the back of his head and felt a little inferior.
Is it because sleeping with a flat head affects your appearance?
It seems that among the brothers, only Eighth Brother and Thirteenth Brother do not have flat heads. Their faces are smaller than others, and they look more delicate.
Shu Shu raised her head and saw Brother Jiu touching the back of his head, and comforted him: "The back of my head is fine, not so flat, and the shape of my face looks fine."
After all, Yifei's appearance is there, and Brother Jiu has inherited some of it.
I just can't get fat, and I still have a face like a melon. If I really get fat, I'll look like my fifth elder brother, an absolute pie-face.
Brother Jiu glanced at Shu Shu and felt that this consolation was not a consolation.
At this moment, He Yuzhu came in and said to Brother Jiu: "Master, Master Gao is here, see you at the front..."
Brother Jiu nodded, said something to Shu Shu and the two elders, and went forward.
This morning, Xi Kui was sent to the Criminal Punishment Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Brother Jiu asked Gao Yanzhong to keep an eye on the news from Prince Xinjun's palace.
Know yourself and your enemy, that prince is not unreasonable.
This is news coming back...
