Chapter 122 Old Lady E Comes to Apologize
The master held a grand banquet just to take a widow as a concubine and get a daughter for free.
At one point, he became the biggest laughing stock in the entire city of Kyoto.
Logically speaking, with Mr. E's family background, he could marry any girl he wanted.
Why do you have to marry a widow whose husband has died and who has children?
The people of Kyoto were talking about this and making endless speculations.
The most talked about ones are:
It was this Aunt Ding who had been secretly having an affair with Master E.
That's why, less than half a year after her husband's death, she was taken into the mansion by Master E with great fanfare.
To this end, he even turned his wife, E Shen, into a complete joke.
However, even though Aunt Ding had not given birth to any children for Master E after she came into the mansion, it did not affect her in any way the same treatment as the legal wife in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Even the daughter she brought with her lived the life of a legitimate daughter.
Because of this incident, my master was labeled as a man who favored his concubine over his wife until his death.
But after a series of investigations by Fu Bo, he found that this was not the case!
Although Master E had married Concubine Ding with great fanfare, he had never stepped into her room. How could two people who had never slept together have a child?
I won't touch my aunt and I won't have children.
Then why did Master E provide Aunt Ding and her daughter with all the best food and drink?
With such a great favor in mind, why did Huang Liu collude with outsiders to harm Lord E?
Xu Zhoujiao finally returned to the general's mansion with a lot of questions.
The Xuzhou Chuang couple, who were having dinner in the side hall, heard the servant announce that the young lady had returned, and they all went out to greet her.
When the two saw their daughter walking towards them with her hands behind her back, there was a baby with bare feet and a wronged look following behind her.
The couple was so shocked that their mouths opened wide.
Jiaojiao ran away and didn't come back all night, and kidnapped a child?
Little Nezha, who was already starving, smelled the aroma of food wafting from the side hall, and his stomach began to growl involuntarily.
Little Nezha covered his belly and took a few steps forward.
He blinked his big eyes at Yingtian and said in a baby voice, "Sister, Nezha is very hungry. Can you treat Nezha to a meal?"
I heard little Nezha talking to me.
Yingtian was brought back to her senses. Looking at the cute baby in front of her, she loved him very much.
Especially when I was called "sister", I was overjoyed: Oh, this little mouth is so sweet~
But when her eyes fell on little Nezha's bare, fleshy little feet.
Yingtian's brows were immediately furrowed tightly, and she looked at Xu Zhoujiao with strong condemnation in her eyes.
"Jiaojiao, why don't you give this child a pair of shoes!"
"Just let this little baby walk back behind you. At least you can hold him in your arms!"
As she spoke, Yingtian picked up the chubby little Nezha, kissed his little face, and said with a distressed look on her face: "Look how aggrieved the little darling is. I feel so sorry for him!"
Little Nezha took the opportunity to hug Yingtian's neck tightly and smiled at her obediently.
Xu Zhoujiao looked at the little Nezha who was acting cute and clever to his mother and said with a sneer, "Wearing shoes? Have you ever seen the famous Nezha the Third Prince wearing shoes?"
? Nezha? The Third Prince?
Yingtian heard her daughter say that the baby in her arms was Nezha the Third Prince.
She looked at the little Nezha in her arms in surprise and looked into his eyes.
Xuzhou Chuang, who was standing aside, looked at Nezha, the Third Prince, who was curled up in his wife's arms, with the same surprise and confusion on his face.
He looked at Xuzhou Jiao who was standing beside him and asked, "Jiao Jiao, why did you bring Nezha the Third Prince back?"
Xu Zhoujiao looked at the little baby falling from the sky, sighed, and said, "He, on the surface, sneaked down from the God Realm. In fact, he was thrown down by the God Realm."
In order to find out the reason why Huang Liu hated E's Mansion, Xu Zhoujiao planned to go back to Chenghuang Temple to see if there were any clues.
She said to Xuzhou Chuang, who was still confused, "He was sent by the gods to help me. He has been living in our house recently."
"I have some things to deal with at the City God Temple."
"Dad, please help me look after little Nezha and don't let him run around."
When it comes to the issue of running around, Xu Zhoujiao solemnly warned her father: "Dad, you must keep an eye on him."
"He just got into trouble in the Ninth Hades Palace, and I tied him up and brought him back."
"Don't be fooled by his appearance. This little guy can fly and do anything."
"Don't let him sneak out!"
After saying that, Xuzhou Jiao glanced at the little Nezha who was lying in Yingtian's arms pretending not to hear, and continued to say to his father: "Dad, if he dares to continue to cause trouble, you must send someone to tell me!"
"I will tie him up, use him like a spinning top, and whip him back to the divine realm!"
The guilty little Nezha shrank his head when he heard Xuzhou Jiao's threat, and he quickly assured her, "No, Nezha won't get into trouble, Sister Jiao, please don't take Nezha back!"
"Nezha will stay here and not go anywhere."
Under the assurances of little Nezha.
Xuzhou Jiao bid farewell to her parents.
He turned around and left the general's mansion and returned to the City God Temple.
However, what Xu Zhoujiao could never have imagined was.
She will meet the long-awaited Madam E at the gate of the City God Temple.
The old lady with white hair, holding a dragon-headed cane, stood straight in front of the City God Temple.
The maids and servants behind him were holding box after box filled with various gifts and gold and silver.
It is not difficult to see that she came to apologize on behalf of Eji.
Xuzhou Jiao flashed into the City God Temple.
Inform Zhu Zhi that a distinguished guest is visiting and ask him to open the door to welcome the guest immediately.
Madam E, who was welcomed in early, came to the side hall under the leadership of Zhu Zhi.
That is the study where Xu Zhoujiao works.
Here, she saw Xu Zhoujiao, who had revealed her true identity, waiting for her with a smile.
Old Lady E stood by the door with the dragon-headed cane in her hand, walked into the hall alone and bowed to Xu Zhoujiao.
"I am E Shenshi, and I am honored to meet the City God."
Xu Zhoujiao looked at Old Madam E who was keeping a very low profile, and hurried forward, wanting to help her up.
Unexpectedly, Madam E took a step back, bowed to Xu Zhoujiao again, and apologized to her.
"Mr. City God, Eji caused a big disturbance in your City God Temple yesterday. As your grandmother, I cannot escape the blame."
"This morning, I came to you to apologize for my crime. I hope you can reduce his punishment because he is the only male in my E family."
"The part that is reduced will be borne by an old woman like me."
As she said this, Old Lady E was about to kneel down to Xuzhou Jiao.
"I hope the City God will show mercy and grant my request."
Xuzhou Jiao grabbed Madam E's arm, helped her up, and comforted her, "Madam, you are worrying too much. I, the City God, have already investigated everything that happened yesterday."
"This Ejido was also misled by someone with ulterior motives. It was not his intention."
"Besides, he has already realized his mistakes and received fifty lashes. That's enough!"
"Old lady, there is no need to come and ask for forgiveness again!"
Xu Zhoujiao looked at the dragon-headed cane standing by the door, waved at it, and grasped the flying dragon-headed cane tightly in her hand.
She gently stroked the dragon-headed cane.
This is a symbol of merit and honor, and also a recognition of Madam E's life.
It was the result of Madam E's life-long efforts in nurturing two generations of loyal and impartial officials for the court.
This dragon-headed cane can be used to beat down tyrants and corrupt officials.
Old Madam E could clearly use this dragon-headed cane to beg Xuzhou Jiao to let Eji go.
But not only did she not use it, she also stood it by the door and went into the hall alone to apologize to Xu Zhoujiao.
Such actions are enough to show Mrs. E's piety and enlightenment.
Xu Zhoujiao injected a trace of divine power into the dragon-headed cane.
It can ensure that old lady E lives peacefully and safely past the age of 100.
She handed the dragon-headed cane back to Madam E with both hands and said to her, "I have sensed your feelings, Madam. This matter has been exposed."
"I hope Madam E will not take it to heart."
Then she led Madam E to the guest seat and ordered Zhu Zhi to serve her fragrant tea.
Mrs. E felt like it was all a dream.
She was prepared to bear a heavy punishment for her grandson, but unexpectedly, the City God not only did not blame her, but treated her with great courtesy.
Madam E thought of the apology gifts she brought with her, and said to Xu Zhoujiao tactfully:
"I heard that the City God is making extensive changes to the river for the benefit of the people. An old woman like me can't do anything for you, sir."
"I have prepared some personal belongings and plan to contribute to the people of Kyoto."
The look in Madam E's eyes when she looked at Xu Zhoujiao was both sincere and nervous.
Xu Zhoujiao smiled softly and nodded to accept all of them.
"Even so, this City God would like to thank Madam E for her righteousness on behalf of the common people."
After that, Xu Zhoujiao instructed Zhu Zhi who was standing beside her: "Zhu Zhi, go and register all the items that Madam E brought."
"Carry them all to the river dam and add the name of E's Mansion on the merit stele."
At this point, Madam E's anxious heart finally settled down.
She stood up again and thanked Xu Zhoujiao directly.
Xu Zhoujiao said tentatively to Madam E who had sat down again, "You are too kind, Madam. I just publicized your good deeds. There is nothing to thank you for."
"But right now, I do have something that I need your help with."
Madam E said without any ambiguity: "If you have any use for me, please speak up."
"I won't shirk my responsibility!"
"You also know that I just took over this City God Temple. Many of the records of the people in this temple are not complete."
"Your family is one of them, so I want to ask you, old lady, what happened in this!"
Madam E cooperated very well and asked, "Which part are you talking about, sir?"
Xu Zhoujiao looked at her and said solemnly: "It's about Aunt Ding and her daughter Liu Rushuang..."
