It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

Chapter 68 Collision

The steward was catching the fox in the grass. He turned his head when he heard the voice and was taken aback: “Miss Tang?”

Master Tang ran near with her skirt, and the more she looked, the more frightened she became. The young man held it in his hand—a stick with the thickness of Master Tang’s arm, and the steward held a trap net with fine iron nails in his hand. There were many traps scattered on the ground, and suspicious black stains were solidified on the bottom.

Master Tang was so frightened, he immediately cold his face, and said angrily: “Presumptuous! The fox is raised by me, not wild. Something is coming to me. What is a little fox without resistance?”

The fact that Master Tang raised a fox is not a secret in the palace. Everyone knows that there were two ancestors in the Fei Jiayuan, one is Miss Tang, the big red man in front of the prince, and the other is a red fox, which the prince brought back from the paddock. , Raised by Miss Tang.

When the little fox also ran out before, people in the mansion knew that this was a pet raised by Master Tang, and no one dared to embarrass it. The little fox grew up smoothly in the palace. After all, Master Tang and Du Juan and others had other things to do. After a long time, they saw that the little fox would not cause trouble, so the supervision was not so strict, so the little fox went outside. .

Who would have thought that there was nothing wrong with each other for so long before, but something went wrong today. Teacher Tang doesn’t believe Lu Yuyao knows that this is her pet.

Seeing Master Tang, Xiao Si and the nursing house moved slowly, spreading out slightly to reveal the crime of Lu Yu in the pavilion. Lu Yukao had seen Master Tang a long time ago, and only now slowly walked down and said, “Yo, it turned out to be Girl Tang. Isn’t Girl Tang recovering from illness, why did she come out?”

“The concubine the elder concubine wants to hunt and kill my pet. I am a bodhisattva, and I can’t sit still.” Tang Shishi said with a cold face, “I am afraid that the little fox has been in the palace for longer than the concubine. Is it my pet?”

“Of course I know.” Lu Yukao said with a smile, “It is Miss Tang’s business that Miss Tang likes to raise, and it is not my turn to intervene. I heard that this fox was brought back from the paddock, and Miss Tang also likes free-range breeding. I originally thought that Miss Tang had merit in serving the prince, even if it was inconvenient, she silently endured it. But this time it was not a matter of endurance. It would be fine if I was wronged, but Miss Xi Er could not do it. Look, it actually scratched Yun Yun. Chu! This wicked animal is wild and untamable. For the sake of the royal family’s family’s safety, I think it’s better to get rid of it.”

Master Tang saw the blood marks on Xi Yunchu’s hands. Master Tang has been raising a little fox for so long and knows its temperament best. The little fox has been raised since he was a child and is very clingy, so he doesn’t hurt people indiscriminately. The blood stains on Xi Yunchu’s hands are neat and tidy. Most of it was something she had done that caused the little fox to be anxious, and the little fox gave her a paw.

However, the situation is better than others. Master Tang is unable to defend the little fox. He can only swallow this breath and apologize: “It hurt people. I didn’t teach it well. I am here to make amends for Miss Xi Er. Ms. Xi Er There are a lot of them, let it go this time. After all, it is a small thing with no wisdom, and it is not easy to grow to such a big size. Please be considerate of Miss Xi.”

Xi Yunchu snorted softly, neither Yin nor Yang said: “I am considerate of it, who is considerate of me? I walked well, and suddenly it grabbed a paw. Its paws are so dirty, I haven’t asked Girl Tang to be fair. , Miss Tang questioned me?”

Lu Yukao also followed to help: “Yes, Yunchu’s hands were originally white and thin, as tender as lush white, but now they were scratched. The woman’s body was not scarred, and her good hands were destroyed. If I let Madam Xi know, I don’t know how angry I should be. Yunchu is my guest. She made such a big mistake in the palace, let alone killing an evil animal, even if Yunchu wants to beat me, I will never I dare not say anything.”

Master Tang held back his anger and said, “It was raised by my side since it was born. We usually bathe it very diligently, and there will be no dirt. I was wrong with the girl Xi, and I have Qiongyu ointment there. After applying it, Old age scars can also be eliminated. I will pay Miss Xi together with Qiongyu ointment and the money for medical treatment, and I will ask Miss Xi to open the Internet and spare the little fox his life.”

Xi Yunchu was playing in the garden just now, and she was surprised to see a fox in the grass, and asked the maid to hug her. This fox is not afraid of people, playing with the female family is very arbitrary. The maids were amused by it. Xi Yunchu was also laughing. Later, Lu Yuxin mentioned that this was Master Tang’s pet, and Xi Yunchu’s mood suddenly deteriorated.

Lu Yuxin also said that this was brought back by Master Tang from the paddock. It was originally the prey of the elder son. Master Tang and King Jing asked for it, and King Jing gave it to her. This fox is very favored in the mansion, and his life is better than his master. Sometimes, even King Jing has to take care of it.

The more Xi Yunchu listened, the more unpleasant she became. She saw the fox’s fiery tail sweeping around on the ground, and that fish-like appearance resembled its owner. Xi Yunchu felt uncomfortable, so she stepped on the fox’s tail. The fox was hurt by trampling, jumped up and gave Xi Yunchu a paw with his backhand.

Both Xi Yunchu and Lu Yusin were sitting, but they were caught by the fox. Xi Yunchu hurriedly stood up and took a look at it. He was bleeding.

This was a big pain, and Xi Yunchu’s face was gloomy on the spot. Lu Yu, afraid of offending Xi Yunchu, hurriedly called someone to catch the fox and killed him so that Xi Yunchu could vent his anger. Unexpectedly, this fox was very clever, so many people hadn’t caught it for a long time, but instead waited for Master Tang to come.

In fact, Xi Yunchu didn’t have to kill the little fox, but it was just a long-haired beast, not worthy of her concern. But when Master Tang mentioned Qiongyu ointment, Xi Yun first paused, but his murderous aura became stronger.

Qiongyu ointment is the secret medicine of the palace, only a few boxes can be adjusted a year, which is very precious. King Jing is the only one who can afford Qiongyu ointment in the huge Xiping Mansion. Master Tang actually had Qiongyu ointment on her hand, obviously, it was given to her by King Jing.

The evil fire in Xi Yunchu’s heart became more and more vigorous. She is the future Princess Jing. King Jing’s favor should be hers. What kind of thing is Master Tang? This woman is prosperous and demon-like, and it is time to rectify it.

Xi Yunchu snorted coldly, and said, “Do I give you that money? Gold and silver are nothing but a block, and it is hard to buy money. I am happy. Who cares about your stinky copper money. I am not happy now. Only by killing it can I help me. The hatred in the heart, no matter who it is, how much money is given, it will not work.”

Seeing this, Lu Yugui winked at the steward: “Didn’t you hear what Miss Xi said? Why don’t you go?”

The steward received Lu Yuxin’s order, and immediately greeted the young man and the nursing home to catch the fox. Several people in the nursing home had field experience, and soon the little fox was forced to show itself.

-A bunch of people rushed towards the fox, the little one kept escaping from the sticks, and always be careful of the traps under his feet. Master Tang watched her heart beating out. She didn’t care about the consequences, and shouted to Xi Yunchu: “Second consort, this is the mascot given to me by King Jing. King Jing personally carried it back from the fox’s den. She originally planned to take it back from the fox’s den. It was given to princess Narentoya, but it was a pity that the princess couldn’t touch the animal’s hair, and he regretted it. However, the princess still thought about it and asked King Haoseng to take care of it before leaving. The Yan Dynasty and Beiting have had diplomatic relations for generations. Inseparable, in the future, when King Zhongshun and the princess visit Xiping Mansion and ask King Jing about the little fox, how will the concubine Shizi and Miss Xi respond?”

Lu Yu was stunned by his expression, then raised his eyebrows: “How dare you use the prince to threaten me?”

“It’s not a threat.” Master Tang looked at Lu Yukao directly and said, “This is just a reminder.”

Lu Yugui couldn’t help but hesitate with this look. Although it is rumored that Master Tang has fallen out of favor in the mansion, the Hundred-legged Insect is dead and not stiff. These court ladies are very evil. What if King Jing comes back and is caught by her again? After all, Lu Yu’s crime is just a concubine, no Dare to challenge the power of King Jing, if not necessary, she does not have to conflict with King Jing’s concubine and maidservant.

Lu Yugui was about to let go. Xi Yunchu was so angry that his teeth were itchy, and he suddenly said cruelly: “If you forgive him, then you will not give me face. If you don’t kill this wicked animal today, I will never go to the gate of Prince Jing’s Mansion again in the future. .”

This… Lu Yukay dare not say anything. Xi Yunchu is a very petty person, the more she is not allowed to do anything, the more she has to do the opposite. If you are hated by Xi Yunchu, then you will be ridiculed by her for three or four years. Sometimes she will deliberately fight against you. Xi Yunchu will soon become Princess Jing, and Lu Yujiao dare not offend her future mother-in-law like this.

Lu Yuba made up his mind and resolutely said: “Kill it. Don’t hesitate, I will be responsible for any consequences.”

After receiving Lu Yukean’s words, the stewards were more confident in catching the little fox. No matter how clever the little fox was, it was no match for so many people. It was soon blocked by people. When it escaped, it accidentally stepped on the trap. The trap closed with a bang. The little fox whimpered and knelt down on the ground with a mournful cry.

Everyone yelled proudly, and the servants carried the stick and immediately stepped forward to kill it. Master Tang was taken aback, and pushed a small servant aside, rushed to the front and said, “Who dare you to see?”

The steward saw Master Tang, sighed, and said, “Miss Tang, please don’t embarrass us. It’s just a long-haired beast. If you really like it, you can buy a docile rabbit or parrot in the future. It’s the same.”

How can this be the same? Master Tang refused to let go, and Du Juan followed suit to help. Lu Yugui’s face sank when she saw this. Master Tang’s move was to openly slap her in the face. If she let it go, where would she put her concubine’s prestige?

Lu Yujiao coldly said, “What are you doing in a daze? Why don’t you hurry up and get Girl Tang down?”

The lower people know the height of eyebrows and eyes best. Master Tang is just a handmaid who has fallen out of favor, and her future is unknown. Even if he was pampered again later, the highest concubine would be no more than a favored concubine. The prince who cares so much about the dignity of his concubine would not let Master Tang pass the princess. On the contrary, the two in the pavilion, one is the imperfect concubine, and the other is the tacit new princess. It is really clear at a glance who the people below should be facing.

The steward wanted to bypass Tang Shishi and go forward, but Tang Shishi refused to let him go. In the chaos, a newcomer couldn’t control his movements and pushed Tang Shishi hard. Master Tang was almost pushed, she was startled, and immediately instinctively protected her lower abdomen.

Du Juan was also terribly frightened, so he rushed over to help Master Tang, and hurriedly asked, “Girl, are you okay?”

Master Tang was holding his stomach, his face pale, and he couldn’t speak for a while. Looking at the performance of these two masters and servants, he was a little scared, but he thought about it again, what can a maid who has fallen out of favor do? He arched his hands perfunctorily and said, “Forgive me, girl Tang, and the girl refuses to cooperate. no way.”

He said that he was going to go back, without any intention of apologizing. In the chaos, a sharp shout came from far behind: “Stop!”

The people in the garden were taken aback all at once, and Liu Ji ran quickly, not even paying attention to the court system that he often talked about. He quickly ran to Master Tang and asked carefully: “Miss Tang, how are you doing?”

Teacher Tang was terribly frightened just now, because of the fright, the lower abdomen was also aching. Master Tang dared not show it, pretending to be calm, shook his head and said, “It’s okay.”

Liu Ji looked at Master Tang up and down, and he was relieved to see that she was indeed not injured. He received a letter from his apprentice saying that Miss Tang and the concubine had a conflict in the garden. Thinking of Zhao Chengjun’s instructions before leaving, Liu Ji rushed to save the field, afraid of something wrong with Master Tang. Unexpectedly, he hurriedly hurried, but it was still too late.

As soon as Liu Ji entered the garden, he saw Master Tang being pushed by someone, and he was so frightened that he almost died suddenly. Good Lord, his Buddha, this one can’t stand the push. When other men touched her, King Jing had a cold face, let alone being pushed hard by a small servant.

Fortunately, Master Tang is okay, so he can take care of him for a few days. After Liu Ji confirmed the situation of Master Tang, he turned to face the many servants, his face immediately turned cold and sharp.

“What a big dog, who is Miss Tang, and what are you? Who allows you to be disrespectful to Miss Tang?”

Everyone was silent, and the management with nostrils upright just now shrank like a crane. Lu Yuxin hurried over with his skirt and saluted from a distance: “I don’t know if Grandpa Liu is driving, I have missed a long way to welcome. Grandpa, why are you here?”

The expression on Xi Yunchu’s face also converged a little, and he saluted Liu Ji indifferently: “Liu Gonggong.”

Liu Ji put on a standard smile, but he didn’t smile at all. “Who should the minion be? It turns out that it was Miss Xi who came. Miss Xi was scratched by a pet in the palace. This is the negligence of our palace, Minion. This allows the imperial physician to show the wounds to Xi Er. Concubine, you have to be forgiven and forgive. Even a fox is not suitable for sin. Concubine, Xi Er, do you think?

Liu Ji said so, and Lu Yukao could only sneer and nodded: “My father-in-law said that I was stunned. I, thinking about eliminating hidden dangers for the palace, forget that the prince is the most compassionate. Sunset, Don’t hurry up and pick up the fox, and quickly bandage the wound so as not to leave the root cause.”

Master Tang sneered and said coldly, “No. It’s the one who we don’t manage well and dare not to bother the concubine. Du Juan, go take it out.”

The cuckoo simply responded and ran to rescue the fox. Liu Ji banged Lu Yu back and turned to look at Master Tang, with a smile on his face again: “Miss Tang, you are frightened today. Don’t worry, the girl, the minion must teach these idiots who are not long-eyed, absolutely. Don’t let the girl be wronged in vain. Girl, it’s windy outside, go back and rest.”

The cuckoo carefully took out the trap from the little fox’s legs. The fox whimpered and nestled in the cuckoo’s arms. Master Tang looked shocked at the blood on its legs. In addition, she was pregnant and did not dare to stay in front of Liu Ji. So he said, “Okay, thank you, Grandpa Liu.”

“The duty of a slave.” Liu Ji responded with a smile. No need for him to wink, the little **** behind took the initiative to stand up and escorted Teacher Tang back to the hospital: “Miss Tang, please.”

Teacher Tang was sent back to Lai Jia Academy. On the way, the little **** said that he would call the **** for the little fox. Master Tang dared to see the **** now, and quickly refused. After closing the door, Dujuan hurriedly hugged the little fox to bandage. The maids of the Fei Jiayuan sighed and sighed when they saw that it was injured.

The fox was surrounded by the maids. Master Tang knew that Dujuan was more proficient in doing this. She couldn’t get it in, so she quietly left, leaving the fox in the care of the maids.

When Master Tang left, one was that she had a specialization in the art industry, and the other was that she had a slight pain in her lower abdomen. After she returned to the house, she quickly found a soft place to lie down. When she passed the table, she saw the medicine bowl on it left intact.

The bowl was still hot when I went out, and now the medicine is completely cold.

Master Tang looked at it a few times, and unexpectedly thought, the medicine is cold, so I can’t drink it anymore. She seemed to be relieved, picked up the medicine bowl and poured it into the flower pot in the corner.
