At first light, Dingbeihou's wife, Qian Shi, opened her eyes. She was startled by the strange environment in front of her, and then recalled that she had already left the Longtan and Tiger's Lair in Dingbeihou's mansion.

——Her daughter is just as lucky as her father!

Qian closed her eyes again, and smiled wryly while thinking about her escape.

Since entering Beijing, Qian has been fighting with Marquis Dingbei and his confidantes, so he can't spare any energy to pay attention to his daughter's movements. Naturally, he doesn't know that she has developed a relationship with the imperial husband's niece.But thanks to such a relationship, the girl was a tough and loyal girl, and she rushed into the Dingbei Hou Mansion under the banner of the emperor's husband, and went all the way to the backyard, which made her and her daughter from several years ago. Rescued from a near-desperate situation.

——I don't know if she can repay this kindness in this life, and whether this matter will bring trouble to that imperial husband.

Qian didn't believe that Ou Jing really got her uncle's instruction to go to Dingbei Hou's mansion to save people.

The imperial husband has no friendship with their wives, and he doesn't even know whether they are cats or dogs. How could he help them at the risk of becoming enmity with a Marquis? Nine times out of ten, this Miss Ou made her own decision. , pull up a banner as a tiger skin, and scare people with her uncle.

——I hope that imperial husband really dotes on her as Miss Oujia said.

——If the uncle and nephew had a rift because of this matter, then the guilt of the two mothers would be serious.

Qian shi said God's blessing in her heart, opened her eyes again, got up and got out of bed.

People, no matter what happens, as long as you are alive, you have to live.Besides, after Ou Jing settled them down, she returned to the city. Except for the family of four who originally lived in the front yard to look after the house in the other courtyard, the rest are servants brought by her.They have to do it themselves for eating and cleaning.As the mistress, she always has to make arrangements and distribute the work. Maybe she really treats herself as a guest, reaching out for clothes and opening her mouth for food.

Also, most of the servants she brought to the capital had been beaten and punished by Marquis Dingbei.Although Ou Jing took the bottom line and took all these people out of Dingbeihou's mansion without any further trouble, but last night was a mess, and she didn't have time to pay attention to the injuries of these people. Today, she has to invite a doctor to treat these servants well. Take a look.

In addition, it is impossible for them to live in other people's houses all the time.Even if Marquis Dingbei failed to divorce her, then Marquis Dingbei's mansion would definitely not be able to go back, and he would always find another place to settle himself and the servants he brought.

There were too many things to do, and Qian didn't have time to worry about the spring and autumn, so she packed up and walked out of the inner room, woke up the maid who was dozing on the couch, and took her out of the house.

There was a light snowfall in the middle of the night last night, adding a bit of loneliness to the quiet yard.

After yesterday's toss, the servants brought out by Qian's family finally calmed down from exhaustion, and unconsciously all fell asleep.

But Mrs. Qian couldn't let them sleep soundly, so she went to the house of the nuns first, woke them up one by one, and then let them wake up the rest of the maidservants and servants, and found out those who still had energy, and hurried to the city Go ask the doctor.

When he and Jin Daowei left their hometown, Qian had no plan to go back.One is that she knows that being a Marquis is different from being an official, and she didn't say that returning home after old age, the mansion in the capital will be their home for the rest of their lives; She didn't want to settle down in the capital, and it was impossible for His Majesty the Emperor to let their mother and daughter return to their hometown.

Because of such awareness and awareness, Qian directly sold the house and fields in her hometown, brought all the servants who were willing to follow her to the capital, and resolutely came to the capital.

It's just that I never thought about it...

Taking a deep breath, Mrs. Qian reminded herself once again that now is not the time to feel sorry for herself or be sad, and at the same time took her maidservant and nun to patrol around the yard they occupied to see if there was anything that needed to be added.

This other courtyard has obviously not been used for many years. When I first came here yesterday, except for the small courtyard where the steward's family lived, the rest of the rooms were all empty, not even a chair was placed.It was because the caretaker of the yard opened the cellar and moved some paint-stained furniture out of it, so that a group of them could not sleep on the floor.

Fortunately, the caretaker of the yard is very responsible. Although the house is empty, it is not broken. The floor heating has been burning since winter, and the paper on the windows is brand new. These people finally ate a hot meal comfortably, and slept comfortably for a good night's sleep.

After arranging trivial matters, Qian was about to go to her daughter's house to have a look, but the youngest daughter of the Ou family who stayed here to look after the house ran over from the front yard, saluted Shi Shiran, and then smiled. He told Qian that Ms. Jing had brought someone, and hoped that she would go to the front yard to have a talk.

Because Ou Jing came to the other courtyard but didn't directly enter the courtyard where they lived temporarily, Qian thought she brought a man, so she hurriedly cleaned up her appearance, took two nuns and went to the front courtyard together.

However, when he arrived at the main hall where he received guests in the front yard, Qian discovered that the visitor was also a woman. Although she was dressed like a woman, her face and eyebrows looked like a girl's, and she was only in her early twenties. Ou Jing is not much older.

"This is the concubine in my third uncle's yard——Su Shi." Ou Jing didn't hide her dislike for Su Su, and gave the simplest and most straightforward introduction with a deadpan face.

"I'm here on behalf of Your Majesty the Emperor." Su Su added the purpose of her visit, "Madam, would you like to have a private talk with me?"

Mrs. Qian was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously glanced at Ou Jing. Seeing that her displeasure was more like dislike for Mrs. Su than objection to something, she nodded immediately, "You can do whatever you want." , I don't know where you want to be..."

"Please follow me." Su Shi——Su Su turned around and walked towards the side hall on the west side of the main hall.

Qian Shi hurriedly winked at the two nuns behind her, telling them to stay in the main hall.On the other side, Ou Jing sat directly on the chair, assuming a proud posture of "I don't care about eavesdropping".

Su Su brought Qian Shi into the side hall, closed the door, lowered the curtain hanging on the door, and conveniently stuffed a sound-proof symbol into the special crack of the curtain.

This paper talisman is Ouyang's masterpiece.Don't look at his poor handwriting, but he is self-taught when he draws talismans. The first time he took pictures of cats and tigers, he produced a finished product, and now he has become a talisman extraction machine for his subordinates. The title will not be exposed by other cultivators even if they go out to bluff and deceive.

But Su Su's cultivation level is really low to appalling - Ouyang's original words, even the lowest-level paper talisman, can be used by her, and there are only a handful of them that can be used by her. It is one of them that can be activated by itself.

After placing the defensive measures, Su Su turned around, and without rushing to talk to Qian, she first rolled up the sleeve of her left arm, revealing the scarlet eye-catching Shougong sand on her arm.

Qian couldn't help being taken aback.

"I don't want you to make wrong guesses because of some wrong cognitions, so that you misinterpret my purpose of coming here today." Su Su smiled slightly and put down his sleeves, "Let me introduce again, my surname is Su Su, people around me usually call me Sister Su or shopkeeper Su, because what I do is the shopkeeper, and I manage the business store for my royal husband."

This shougong sand was selected purely out of curiosity.At that point, Su Su screamed in pain and regretted it unceasingly, but after that, it really played a key role a few times—people in this age, both men and women, pay a lot of attention to women's chastity, as long as When seeing Shou Gongsha, his attitude will change from contempt to respect in all likelihood.

Mrs. Qian was no exception. She straightened up immediately, greeted Su Su again, and blamed herself: "Disrespect, disrespect, my concubine has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai. If there is any negligence, please forgive me."

"You're welcome." Su Su's smile remained unchanged, "We are all women, and we know the difficulties and hardships of women in this world best. For example, even if I have the heart to compete with men, I can only live in the Under the wings of my imperial husband, relying on his old man's protection, I make small troubles."

In Su Su's heart, Ouyang is an old man through and through. Even if calculated by biological age, he is from his father's generation.

The two women came and went politely for a few rounds, Su Su didn't continue to make false claims, and took the lead in clarifying the reason for her visit.

"I wonder if Mrs. Qian has any plans for the future?" Su Su asked, "I think you also understand that Ding Beihou's Mansion must not return."

"Your Majesty allowed that husband to divorce his wife?!" Qian's face immediately changed.

"How is it possible." Su Su smiled and waved her hands, "Don't forget, although there is a saying of 'seven outs' in the way of marriage, there is also the 'three don'ts' that cannot be abandoned, and the 'three don'ts' ' ranks before the 'Qichu'. No matter in terms of etiquette or law, Dingbeihou is not qualified to divorce his wife, and it is even more impossible for His Majesty to allow him to do such absurd acts that are condemned by thousands of people."

Speaking of this, Su Su's voice changed, "Actually, from my point of view, the Marquis of Dingbei probably never thought of really wanting to divorce you—the reason why he made such a memorial requesting divorce is that Because he knows that His Majesty will never allow him to divorce his first wife, and will only reprimand him in the end, and then send back the book. In this way, your real lady can be appeased, and he can explain to the false lady—— Look, it's not that I don't want to straighten you up, it's that His Majesty doesn't allow me to do so!"

Qian Shi took a deep breath, neither her expression nor her mood changed for the better because of Su Su's speculation.

After being silent for a long time, Qian finally opened his mouth slowly, "If it's true as you guessed, that man never really wanted to divorce me, why did you say before that the Dingbeihou's mansion must never come back?"

"On the eighth day of the lunar new year, you went to Zhengyangmen, and almost sued the imperial court, right?" Su Su asked.

"Yes." Mrs. Qian nodded in recognition, "When I found out that the man actually handed over the booklet, and wanted to ask His Majesty to abolish my position as wife, I was furious for a moment, and I felt like I would die together. It's just that I really went to Zhengyangmen , I calmed down and hesitated, and just happened to be chased by that man, so I gave up and went back to the Hou Mansion with him. It's just that I never thought about it..."

Imperial certificates are not something you can sue casually.

As long as the Tianlei Drum in front of Zhengyang Gate is sounded, the guards on duty will give fifty lashes to the person who beat the drum first, regardless of whether it is indiscriminate or not.After the whipping is over, the person who beat the drum can go to the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and then according to the status of the person who is complaining, he can enjoy different entertainments such as beating a board, rolling a nail board, or walking in a sea of ​​knives and fire.After this hurdle has passed, the official of the Ministry of Punishment in charge of the matter will take the pleadings and present them to the emperor.

Qian didn't know the details, but she knew that filing a lawsuit would cost a huge price, so she hesitated at the last moment - at that time, the resentment between her and Marquis Dingbei was far from endless the point.

"It's because you made such a move, but failed to carry it out to the end, that made Dingbeihou want to kill you, and wanted to get rid of it quickly." Su Su sighed, "To put it bluntly—— This son, he can be born again if he is gone; women, they are waiting in line for him to pick; only the official hat and title, once lost, it will be difficult to find them back. Killing your parents is equivalent to digging someone's ancestral grave. What you did before was to dig a shovel of soil on the ancestral grave of Marquis Dingbei."
