He Guiren was furious.
The person who drank the order immediately burned a soldering iron and destroyed Xue Hengzhao's appearance.
Li Zhi and others wanted to persuade them again, but Lv Zao and Citron had already gone to move the charcoal basin and get the soldering iron.
The room was so quiet that you could hear needles dropping. People who often served He Guiren knew that if she got angry, it would be difficult to talk to her.
It's just that most people don't know why the noble man is so angry today, which is really surprising.
But the most unexpected thing is that Xue Hengzhao neither cried out that he was wronged nor begged for mercy.
He Guiren's hand was very heavy and Xue Hengzhao was pushed to the ground. The hairpin on his head fell down and the dark clouds scattered.
Xue Hengzhao slowly propped up his body, picked up his hairpin, and calmly combed his black hair, with a serious look on his face from beginning to end.
After kneeling down again, Xue Hengzhao asked He Guiren in a respectful manner: "This servant is just the lowest palace servant. I have no qualifications to see the Holy One. How can I do anything to seduce him?"
He Guiren sneered: "You dare to be so stubborn?! What can't a restless guy like you do?!"
"My servant knows that someone must be slandering you in front of you." Xue Hengzhao glanced at Lv Zao who had left and returned, and the other party glared at her, "No matter how hard I try to prove my grievances, your noble man may not be willing to believe it..."
"It's good that you know," He Guiren looked at her with fire in his eyes, "Who was blind enough to let a troublemaker like you enter the palace? If you don't get rid of it early, there will be trouble in the future."
"The noble hates the slave, and it is the slave's fault. But there is one thing I hope the noble will think deeply about." Xue Hengzhao was calm and composed, even though the charcoal basin was already placed in front of him.
"What, are you trying to scare me?" He Guiren straightened his body slightly and pushed his chest higher, "Let me tell you clearly, you are a little maid, I can beat and kill you. "
"I am just a little ant in front of you, and I don't dare to think that I can escape this disaster.
It's just that since ancient times, there has been a saying that a person who throws a mouse is afraid of something. What I'm afraid of is that after the noble person punishes me, the situation will fall into the hands of others.
In this way, even though it is not my wish, it will also lead to injustice for the noble person. "Although Xue Hengzhao was kneeling, he did not look embarrassed or humble.
Her magnanimity is indeed impressive, but He Guiren has made up his mind and is unwilling to let her go no matter what.
After hearing what she said, he laughed a few times and said sarcastically: "What a yawn from the giant spirit god - such a loud tone! Do you mean someone will stand up for you? Then I will punish you today. Let's see who it is." You’re not here to look for me!”
"The day after tomorrow will be the Queen Mother's memorial day, and within seven days, the new Queen's canonization ceremony will be held.
These two events are not only major events in the palace, but also major events in the world.
Nowadays, everyone in the palace chants Buddha's name and prays for blessings everywhere, but I'm afraid they won't be able to support him.
The nobleman secretly set up a torture hall and tortured the maidservants. What he knew was that the slaves were hateful and made you unhappy. Those who didn't know it thought that the nobleman was resentful of the queen mother or the new queen, and used this to vent his anger.
Or people with ulterior motives may use this rumor to slander, and those who will add insult to injury will definitely join in.
By then, will the noble man be able to escape unscathed?
The noble man has always been favored by His Majesty, how could he not be jealous? I don’t know how many pairs of eyes are spying and how many ears are eavesdropping.
You have to find something to do when you have nothing to do, let alone at such a critical moment.
Once someone catches someone making a mistake, a big fuss will be made.
At that time, will those who slander you dare to stand in front of you and explain clearly to everyone?
Even if they dare, it's useless if others don't believe it. "
Xue Hengzhao's words hit He Guiren's seven inches.
She indeed hated Xue Hengzhao so much that her teeth itched with hatred, but she couldn't help but worry about the trouble it would bring to herself.
And although Xue Hengzhao was excusing herself, what she said did make sense, and He Guiren had to consider it.
"My lord, you see, I have told you a long time ago that this bitch is eloquent and has a cunning mind. If not, how could he easily win over people's hearts." Lu Zao was worried and quickly fanned the flames in He Guiren's ears.
"Luzao, what are you doing?" Lychee was very unhappy, "Are you afraid that the world will not be in chaos?"
"Shut up!" He Guiren said angrily, "Both of them have no rules!"
Lizhi and Lvzao were so frightened that they knelt down quickly, and the others followed suit.
He Guiren stared at Xue Hengzhao for a long time before he spoke: "You are really good at your wishful thinking! Thank you for reminding me.
However, don't be complacent, you will need a knife to raise or shrink your head.
Someone, lock her up and put her in jail. If he runs away, none of you will have a good time!
She is not even allowed to be revealed, I just want to keep her here as my purse!
When the new queen ceremony is over, I will not only burn your face, but also chop off your fingers and pull out all your teeth.
Until then, let's see who can do anything to get me? ! "
Xue Hengzhao was taken down and locked up. Everyone knew that although she was saved from being disfigured today, she would not be able to escape this fate.
Lychee then said to everyone, half coaxing and half frightening: "Keep your mouths shut, no one is allowed to go out and talk nonsense. If our master succeeds, none of us will be able to feel better."
Everyone only responded.
Only Citron muttered to Lu Zao behind his back: "In a few days, when the noble's heart cools down, should we let her go? The two of us will be regarded as villains for nothing."
Lu Zao snorted coldly and said: "Don't worry, it won't happen. The time is indeed not right now, and the noble man must be careful.
After a few days, I was no longer afraid. I killed her and asked Liu Quan to come over. They covered her with a white cloth and carried her out. She just said that she died of illness.
In this way, no one will be held accountable. After all, after the ceremony, people and horses were exhausted, and no one could care about it. "
Upon hearing this, Citron felt relieved and said, "In that case, I'm not afraid to wait a few days."
At sunset, Chi Su stopped the needle, straightened out the threaded beads and put them into the box.
The last one walked out of the embroidery workshop, stood on the steps, and looked towards the corridors on both sides.
There was still no sign of Xue Hengzhao, and the panic in his heart rose together with the dusk, and gradually became overwhelming.
Two days ago, Xue Hengzhao told her that if she didn't show up for two consecutive days, it meant something happened to her at Qingyunfang.
Although Chi Su didn't understand why something happened to Xue Hengzhao, she firmly believed in Xue Hengzhao's judgment.
She decided to wait a little longer. If Xue Hengzhao still didn't come to her after half an hour, then she would have to go find Eunuch Zhang.
Her right hand gently twisted her left sleeve. Hidden in the seam was the paper roll Xue Hengzhao gave her.
Xue Heng showed this thing to her, so she put it away without opening it at all.
So she didn't know what was written in it.
But he was also sure that this thing could save Xue Hengzhao's life.
Until the last ray of sunset disappeared, and the stars lit up on the peacock purple sky.
Chi Su bit her lower lip, clenched her hands and walked down the steps, then walked straight to Yangze Palace with her head down.
