Wan Chun was using her thin body to tremble to stop the angry Mrs. Fish.
"Mrs. Yu, our lady is the adopted daughter of the master. It is definitely not the relationship you think. Besides, you see, the two glazed lamps under the eaves were just gifted by the emperor during the day. Our lady has already won the emperor's favor. Very soon Soon...ah!"
Before Wan Chun could finish her words, she was slapped hard on the face. Mrs. Yu's well-maintained hands and sharp nails made several clear marks on her face.
Mu Xia quickly helped Wan Chun, whose eyes were red, and hid behind Shen Dingzhu.
When Mrs. Yu saw the real master, she pointed at Shen Dingzhu's nose and scolded: "The emperor was just seduced by a fox like you. Don't think that I don't know. You can't do anything, so you must have done something." , I was afraid that the four maids before would tell me, so I asked the prince to kill them."
The mother-in-law behind her was even more arrogant. She stood up and said: "Madam, you can talk to someone like her. She dares to talk sweetly to get the prince to agree to let her live in the courtyard where the late princess lived. What else is there for her?" Don’t you dare to do it?”
Shen Dingzhu was startled. Jiangjiayuan was originally the place where the regent's first wife lived during her lifetime?
She really didn't know that she didn't choose this place to seduce the regent. He was an old man, so what was there to seduce?
Shen Dingzhu almost laughed out loud at Mrs. Fish's idea.
However, it is also strange that the regent is usually very lecherous. When he was in power, he married many concubines and beauties. Now he is in decline. It is said that every year, he takes in new concubines in the mansion.
Mother-in-law: "Just dip her into the pig cage and throw her into the water and see how she can seduce men!"
Mrs. Yu sneered: "I think that's how it should be. I heard that this foxy girl had a husband before. I really don't understand how any man would be willing to marry such a woman. I'm afraid she would have been pissed to death by her flirtatious personality!" "
Shen Dingzhu had been calm at first, but when he heard her talking about Xiao Langyan, his beautiful eyes suddenly filled with a frosty feeling like cold mist.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Yu was even more shocked. She put her hands on her hips and said domineeringly, "What's in your eyes? Why, are you talking about your heart? A fox is a fox, and even the men who are good to you will not end well."
After that, she waved her hand: "Go! Put her in a cage and solve this scourge as soon as possible. I'll see how she still stares at me."
As soon as the words fell, those powerful women immediately stepped forward menacingly.
Wan Chun and Mu Xia were so frightened that their faces turned pale, but they did not dare to stop them. They could only kneel on the ground and beg Mrs. Yu to show her kindness.
"Mrs. Fish, calm down! The young lady has just won the emperor's favor. If the emperor comes to ask for someone, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the prince?"
"Get away!" The women kicked them away.
Just when the women stretched out their hands to grab Shen Dingzhu's wrist, Shen Dingzhu suddenly raised his palm and shook off the cage in their hands.
The cage was thrown high and directly hit a glass lamp that had just been hung under the eaves.
Everyone was shocked, the glazed lamp shook and made a crisp sound.
Shen Dingzhu pursed his lips, just waiting for it to fall.
However, it shook violently, but after a while, it gradually stopped.
Mrs. Yu also calmed down, and her ferocious expression calmed down: "Bitch! You want us to smash the emperor's reward? Drag her away!"
At this moment, a sharp scolding came from outside the yard.
"Stop!" The regent came quickly with two of his followers.
When Mrs. Yu saw him, the domineering look on her face suddenly turned into tears.
"Your Highness, this A-Zhu has gone too far. I just wanted to set some rules for her, but I didn't expect that she actually spoke rudely to me, insulting me as a concubine and not worthy of taking care of the affairs of the Prince's house."
Mrs. Fish wiped her tears, and the Regent looked at her with a livid face, almost getting angry, but he gradually held back.
Shen Dingzhu knew that this was because Mrs. Yu had been accompanying the regent for twenty years, even longer than the original princess.
She was originally the regent's maid, and when he was still young, she was responsible for educating him in bed matters.
Therefore, after so many years, even if Mrs. Yu had no background, she still had some weight in the heart of the regent, otherwise she would not be allowed to take charge of the house.
"Azhu, is it what she said?"
Shen Dingzhu lowered his head slightly, his posture was delicate but not pretentious, and his slim figure covered in moonlight only looked hazy and cold.
Her voice was calm: "My adoptive father knows my temper, how can I dare to disobey Mrs. Yu? Ever since I entered the mansion, I have been very obedient, but Mrs. Yu always feels that it is not enough. She came today to dip me into a pig cage. If this is justice, It’s hard for Azhu to say what the father wants.”
"I'm afraid that Mrs. Yu will get past my foster father and kill me. Foster father, you have to make the decision for me."
The regent was definitely not unaware of Mrs. Yu's attempt to make things difficult for Shen Dingzhu, but it didn't cause a big mess, so he acquiesced.
When Shen Dingzhu said this, his face turned even darker. He stared at Mrs. Yu and was about to scold her, but saw Mrs. Yu kneeling down and crying:
"My lord, I just wanted to scare her. I want her to be obedient and sensible, and share your worries. Even if I use the wrong method, my original intention is always for you."
Seeing her like this, the regent's expression softened slightly.
He looked at Shen Dingzhu: "Azhu, look at her kneeling down. Let's forget about it. You're not scared, are you? Then go to bed early."
Shen Dingzhu stood in the corridor and watched the regent help Mrs. Yu up. Mrs. Yu secretly cast a proud look at her.
After so many years of getting along with him, she had already understood the regent's temperament clearly, otherwise, the original princess would not have been mad at her to death.
Sudden.
The glass cup that had been hit just now fell down with a "pop" and shattered into pieces.
Everyone present widened their eyes and held their breath.
Even Mrs. Yu’s proud smile froze at the corner of her mouth.
Shen Dingzhu pretended to be surprised, and her face turned pale: "Mrs. Fish, you broke the glass lamp that the emperor rewarded. This was the late emperor's favorite thing. The emperor also told you to cherish it and play with it."
Mrs. Yu looked pale and quickly looked at the Regent, but saw that the latter's eyes had changed when he looked at her.
"My lord, I don't have one, I really don't have one! When I asked someone to arrest her just now, it was she who threw off the cage and hit the lantern. It was also her fault that it was broken!"
Shen Dingzhu choked with sobs: "It's over, foster father, if the emperor asks you next time, how should I answer? Could it be that I just gained the emperor's favor and it was all in vain because of this matter?"
The Prince Regent was completely furious. He raised his hand and slapped Mrs. Yu hard on the face.
"Ah -" Mrs. Yu screamed and fell to the ground. The corner of her mouth suddenly broke. She cried and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, I really didn't mean it."
The regent pointed at her: "You bitch, you have done nothing wrong, but you want to cause trouble at this juncture. This is a gift from the emperor. I will give you a few lives. Can you afford to pay for it?"
at this time.
The housekeeper hurriedly ran over: "Your Majesty, the Emperor has sent someone here, and now he wants Miss Xuan to come into the palace to serve her!"
Shen Dingzhu's heart skipped a beat when she saw the regent looking towards her with joy.
However, before he could speak, Shen Dingzhu suddenly held onto his lower back and groaned in pain with a pale face: "Father, my body hurts. My mother-in-law pinched her so hard just now. I don't know if she was injured. "
The regent's expression changed drastically: "Quick, help the young lady go in to check and see what's going on!"
Wan Chun and Mu Xia came over quickly and helped Shen Dingzhu inside.
When the clothes were opened, one could see the beauty's slender waist, which was originally an extremely charming curve. However, a slender cut appeared on the fair and jade-like skin, and drops of blood appeared.
The two maids were startled, and Mu Xia ran out and told the regent, "I'm afraid the ladies pushed and pushed me just now, hurting the young lady. The wound was bleeding, and the young lady was very dizzy."
The regent was anxious and immediately wanted to go into the house to check for himself. However, before he reached the door, he heard Wan Chun shouting: "It's not good, call the doctor quickly, the lady has fainted!"
The Prince Regent was completely panicked.
He knew that Shen Dingzhu was not in good health, otherwise he wouldn't have lost his memory. He finally recovered, so he wouldn't fall down again because of fright, right?
The housekeeper was also anxious: "Your Majesty, the eunuch sent by the emperor is still waiting outside."
If you can't hand over someone, how can you explain it to the emperor?
The Prince Regent was pacing back and forth. He was extremely irritable. Suddenly, he stopped and stared straight at the bewildered Mrs. Fish who was kneeling in the courtyard.
"Take her head and explain to the emperor that Azhu has been made difficult and bullied by the aunt in the palace. I have made the decision for her, and I feel sorry for her body, so I cannot let her enter the palace tonight."
Mrs. Yu's face turned pale. She had been accompanying the regent for more than twenty years, and yet she wanted to kill her because of such a trivial matter as Ah Zhu?
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please spare me, Your Majesty!" Mrs. Fish was dragged away.
The Prince Regent didn't even frown.
Shen Dingzhu in the room heard it, his eyebrows closed without any movement.
If the glass cup hadn't been broken and Feng Jing happened to send someone to find her, Mrs. Yu might not have lost her life so quickly.
So what if the regent still cares about the friendship of twenty years? Such a man who only has his own interests in mind will not be soft-hearted for anyone.
No wonder he raised a daughter like Wei Wan.
Mrs. Yu's severed head was brought to the palace. After Feng Jing learned about it, he expressed his heartache for Shen Dingzhu and asked the eunuch to visit him many times with medicines.
Shen Dingzhu lived a peaceful life for a few days as a matter of course.
The stab wound on the back of her waist had finally healed, leaving only a faint streak of pink, which she could only see when she was changing clothes in the mirror.
That day, the weather was gloomy, with a strong hot wind blowing, and it seemed like it would stop raining. It was really sweltering.
As the weather was like this again, Feng Jing invited Shen Dingzhu to go out for fun.
The regent was afraid that Shen Dingzhu would fall out of favor, so he quickly agreed for her. After dressing her up, he sent her to Feng Jing's carriage parked at the door.
As soon as Shen Dingzhu boarded the carriage, a cold figure hugged him.
Feng Jing's smiling voice came: "Sister, are you feeling better?"
Shen Dingzhu calmly raised his arm to block his hug and said hello calmly.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to pretend. No one from the Wei Mansion will come with us today. Only my two little maids are here, far away."
