A Qinglou girl, just like duckweed in the water, when the officials and gentry and celebrities hold you, you can be praised as the laurel of the Toad Palace, unattainable, if you want to rectify you, the status is not as good as a small people, but just a pariah.
And it was such a woman who dared to splash wine on the grandfather of the country, who had to peek at so many officials and look up to his snort, and the hall was shocked for a while Xia Xun's reaction was very fast, and as soon as Miss Xisi's wrist moved, he noticed something was wrong, but he sat there very calmly and didn't move, he just closed his eyes very quickly, so he didn't splash a drop of wine in his eyes.
The wine splashed on Xia Xun's face, slowly dripping down his cheeks, and in the entire banquet hall, everyone was stunned, the officials and gentry naturally didn't need to say anything, even the slaves and maids who served wine and food were stunned, and the musicians in the two compartments stretched their necks and looked out desperately, among them, there was an old man who played the violin just bowed his head, indulged in his own music, and didn't know what was going on” Chang Zhifu's face was blue at that time, he held a green face, and he endured it so that he didn't jump up, but just slapped the table with a "snap", and said with a cruel smile: "Miss Xisi, you dare to talk nonsense to slander the court officials and drink the country, and commit the following crimes, don't you know the king's law?"
Miss Xi Si glanced at him with disdain, raised her head proudly, and said in a brow: "The prefect is so angry, the cannibal is you?"
Chang Yinglin was embarrassed, and roared angrily and anxiously: "Boldly trick the people, bewitch the people, slander the officials of the imperial court, drag her out for me, drag her out, and take her" Xia Xun, who was sitting there steadily, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and wiped his cheeks gently, as if he had just washed his face, he finished wiping his face, and the Chang Governor had just finished giving an order, Xia Xun said slowly: "Why should Lord Futai be in a hurry, the mouth of the people is more important than the mouth of Fangchuan if she doesn't tell her to spit out her heart, but it seems that the Huzhou Mansion has really done something angry and resentful, and it is not beautiful to spread it."
On the side, Imperial Envoy Yu had been staring at Xia Xun's reaction, and when he heard his tone, he immediately took it to heart.
To be an official, to be a successful official, without this bit of eyesight, not to mention that they are all human spirits, they are also good at figuring out their intentions.
Imperial Envoy Yu immediately coughed, and said in a righteous manner: "Yu Shiji, the imperial envoy of the Imperial Procuratorate, is ordered to inspect the disaster area and investigate the injustices, Miss Xisi, you have grievances, you can declare it to the official, but the official's ugly words are in the head, and the people sue the official, if the accusation is not true, it will be a crime of one degree."
"I didn't sue the official" Miss Xisi's words made the whole hall stunned again, you didn't sue the official, but you said such a thing, and you also drank and poured the country, did you lose your heart and go crazy Xi Si raised her face, the complexion of the face was like jade, tender as egg white, illuminated by the light, reflected as transparent, it was very cute, but her eyes were faintly filled with tears: "The little woman is neither a bitter master, nor has she been wronged, Huzhou is flooded, countless people are broken, but Xi Si is still clothed and fed, in and out of wealthy families, singing and dancing, dreaming of death and drunkenness, what grievances are there?"
She suddenly lowered her head, her cold and sharp gaze swept over the faces of Xia Xun and other court officials, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Xi Si is only because of what she has seen and heard, there is injustice in her chest, and it is difficult to be at peace."
Xia Xun smiled calmly as if it was someone else who had just splashed it: "If you are not even, you will sing, I believe that for Imperial Envoy Yu, this is more enjoyable than light songs and dances." ” Miss Xi Si is accustomed to seeing the faces of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and her heart is naturally a little extreme, coupled with the rumors spread by the Chang Prefect that he has a friendship with the Fuguo Mansion, under the preconceived idea, she has already recognized Xia Xun as a corrupt official, and at this time, she listened to him and kept saying that she did not forget to pull the envoy Yu and push the accountability to him, and thought that he was reserving a way out to protect the Chang Prefect, and she hated it even more in her heart.
She glanced at Xia Xun coldly and said, "Xi Sizu has been farming for generations, and he is also a good family.
Eleven years ago, there was also a big flood here, because of that big flood, my home was gone, I was only seven years old that year, I was sold into the Qinglou by my father with tears, but I don't hate him, he can't do it" When Miss Xi Si said this, two lines of tears flowed down, and she choked up: "In order not to affect his future in the evaluation of his political performance, the dog official first hid the disaster and did not report it, and then levied and extorted violently, so as to complete the autumn levy of the year as usual, and the natural disaster did not kill so many people, but this man-made disaster, my parents and family survived the flood, but they did not survive this catastrophe, and finally it was" Miss Xi Si suddenly turned to Chang Yinglin, and shouted with her halberd finger: "I hate this day, and I hate such a faint official even more, but you, Chang Yinglin, a big corrupt official, are darker than the heart of that faint official, he flattered and bullied his subordinates for the sake of political achievements, so that this money soaked in the blood and tears of the people is not put into his personal pocket, you are not only greedy for public food, but also greedy for the food donated by the gentry in the city to the victims."
Thou hast sealed the gates of the city, and thou hast sat idly by and watched the people cry for help, and thou hast left their homes; You sit back and watch countless lonely widows commit suicide in desperation; You colluded with those unconscionable merchants, took advantage of this natural disaster, forced how many children to sell themselves cheaply, became your domestic slaves, forced many daughters of good families, and became your playthings with shame and shame, you cannibalistic officials" The hall was silent, and Xia Xun said with a calm face: "Chang Governor's Mansion, what this girl said is true."
Chang Yinglin hurriedly got up and said, "She is talking nonsense, don't listen to her nonsense."
This must have been someone who bought this cheap maid, and took advantage of this opportunity to falsely accuse the lower officials in front of the national prince, and the lower officials governed the place, not afraid of power, and really offended some people, this must be the annihilation of those people, if the national grandfather does not believe it, you can ask the gentry and officials present" Most of the official gentry in the hall just came to accompany the dinner, and at the moment, the attitude of the auxiliary prince is unknown, who dares to talk nonsense, only Chu Meng and other officials and gentry who have colluded with Chang Yinglin nodded again and again, and said loudly: "Yes, yes, Lord Futai loves the people like a son, and he helps the people in disaster relief, sleeps at night, and works hard, and he can't find such a blue sky with a lantern."
The feather silk girl laughed loudly, and said with tears in her laughter: "Love the people like a son, a good love for the people like a son, he Chang Yinglin even if he treats us as cattle, as long as he eats our flesh and blood, and when he is satisfied with his gold teeth, he can think of building a shed for us animals and feeding a little forage, we will burn high incense for him."
The sound of injustice was faintly filled with the sound of gold and iron, Xia Xun's expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Miss Xi Si publicly accused the Huzhou prefect of corrupting the law and greedy for public grain, and in the face of the floods in Huzhou, as a parent, she refused to open the city or accept help, forcing countless refugees to flee to other parties, or commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, if any of these are true, it is the crime of killing the head."
Chang Yinglin's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said, "Grandpa Guo" Xia Xun turned and said: "But my country's father came all the way, and I saw that the disaster relief was in good order, and the victims outside the city had accommodation, clothing, and food, which was seen by the official himself, and it was very different from what Miss Xi Si said."
Chang Yinglin turned his surprise into joy, and hurriedly echoed: "Guogong is wise, Guogong is wise, this must be a plan to destroy people, slander and slander."
Miss Xi Si didn't expect these officials to protect each other, and she was not surprised by Xia Xun's words.
It's just that the misery of those refugees outside Huzhou City is vivid, and then she thinks of her sad past, how she is willing to force a smile and flatter these dog officials, although she is just a Qinglou woman, she is entertaining and generous, and in the eyes of those dignitaries and nobles, she is a bitch who is a good person, but she also has her own dignity and persistence She refused to come, but the mothers and stewards in the yard did not agree, don't look at these red girls in the yard in front of outsiders with a lot of pomp, you can't see him if the money is not in place, and when you meet the face, you will only accompany you to eat a cup of tea, taste a piece of snacks, and say a few words It is also a common thing, and it is really a lot of silver to be smashed, and it depends on whether the girl is happy, otherwise, if you want to be a guest of the scene, people will not agree.
But this kind of shelf and pomp is originally the old bustard in the yard has taught them since childhood, fishing for your appetite, and then allowing you to pay more silver, some men pretend to be wronged, spend money like running water, and the girl just refuses to accompany you, this is worth it, so that the man who can measure the pearl to spend the night is consciously superior, and he will come to the scene next time.
But once it comes to the major issue of the safety of the Qinglou, it is not your turn to express your opinion at all, you have to do whatever you are told to do, you have to do what you are told to do, you have to pretend to be a pig and a dog, you have to go, dare not listen, there are ways in the yard to rectify you so that you can't survive, you can't die, and there are countless ways to completely destroy your dignity as a human being.
So Miss Xi Si didn't dare not come, but she didn't want to go against her will to please these dog officials who ate people's fat and ointment, and regarded the people as inferior to mustard.
Hearing Xia Xun's words, Miss Xi Si smiled sadly, she had pulled out the jasper hairpin from her bun, she was dressed in white, and her body was dusty, just this hairpin, the hairpin was pulled, and her hair fell like a waterfall, Xi Si held the hairpin, and said with a sad smile: "Xi Si didn't expect this to be able to reclaim grievances for the people of Huzhou.
She raised her neck, and the hairpin stabbed her throat, Xia Yuanji and Yu Shiji exclaimed in unison: "Girl, don't" Xia Xun flicked his fingers, the wine glass in his hand was suddenly gone, and the hairpin in Miss Xisi's hand just touched her throat, and she felt that her raised elbow was numb, and she used all her strength To be continued:
