The Empress Dowager played with her newly made nails, Then absent-minded tunnel: "Go back and ask your wife. She asked someone to make a rumor in the teahouse. It's about you, me and reputation. Of course, I don't care about reputation. It's you. Your own people can discredit you, indicating that your family rules are not strict. I won't argue with your wife about this, but please let her take care of herself and discredit me. It doesn't matter, I won't Drop a piece of meat, just you... You don't seem to care? After all, your reputation stinks. I don't know if Princess Ningyuan doesn't care. After all, she is a newly canonized princess. She hasn't had a good life for a few days now. Being so stigmatized will damage the royal face. "
Yes, the Empress Dowager only cares about ye Xiaoxian. Ye Xiaoxian has no foundation in the capital. She can't carry such rumors for no reason.
The National Teacher obviously heard the Empress Dowager's unhappiness and knew that the Empress Dowager was giving him face and didn't punish his wife personally. She kept it for him to punish.
The national teacher said angrily, "that woman is so brave. See how I can deal with her when I go back!"
The Empress Dowager teased, "it depends on your willingness."
"What do you want? It's just an old and ugly woman." The national master knew that he had annoyed the Empress Dowager and was going to hug her, but his waist hurt, so he had to give up.
……
The national master was helped back to the mansion.
As soon as he returned to the room, he lay down, and then asked two servants to rub his back and wipe the medicinal wine for him.
Wiping the medicinal wine, and then thinking about the empress dowager, he ordered humanity: "call me your wife!"
The National Teacher's wife is proud at the moment. She has nothing to do recently. She goes out to the teahouse and listens to the people in the teahouse talk about the recent affair in the capital. She was very proud when she heard of their empress dowager and national teacher.
For so many years, she has been neglected by the national teacher and jealous of the Empress Dowager. She thinks she must turn out some waves, otherwise she will be too oppressed to live.
Although such a little gossip can't hit the dog men and women, it can at least make them sick and make ye Xiaoxian sick.
When the housekeeper came to deliver the message, the National Teacher's wife had just returned from the teahouse. She heard that the national teacher was going to deliver it to her, and her heart clicked.
Was it found out?
She rearranged her appearance and put on plain clothes, just as she usually fasted and chanted Buddha.
Such a self, at first glance, is independent of the world and pure in heart and few desires?
……
"Husband, I heard you called me?" When the National Teacher's wife arrived at the National Teacher's house, her face still looked very calm and pretended to know nothing.
Seeing the national master lying on the bed again, there was a strong smell of medicine and wine in the room. She hurried over and said, "Oh, what's the matter? Are you hurt? How? What kind of medicine and wine are you using now? Do you want to try the Dieda magic medicine in my room? It was prepared for me by a magic doctor surnamed Xiao."
The national master snorted and said, "don't worry!"
"Then... Why did you call me?"
The national teacher asked the two servants who massaged him to step back, turned over hard, and then said, "what did you do yourself? Don't you know? You're still pretending to be stupid here!"
"Pretending to be a fool? Oh, my husband, are you wrong about my family? What can happen if people chant scriptures and pray for Buddha at home every day?"
"You're pretending to be stupid. I ask you, it's said in the capital that I had a daughter with the empress dowager, the wife of xiaobaoshan. Did it come from you? Don't think others don't know what you did. Now the Empress Dowager knows and the emperor knows, but they didn't directly put you in prison for my face and leave it to me I'll just deal with it! "
The National Teacher's wife's legs trembled, and her just serious appearance suddenly disappeared, and even her lips trembled.
She straightened her back and said, "without evidence, why wronged me? Did I go in and out of the teahouse several times during this time?"
The national master was so angry that he smashed the medicine jar next to him and said, "OK, you still don't admit it. Do you want me to bring the witness to you? You gave 10 liang of silver and arranged the scoundrels in the East Second Lane to spread rumors. Do you want me to find those scoundrels for you so that you can plead guilty?"
The National Teacher's wife knew that she couldn't hide it. She softened her legs, flopped down and knelt down, and then said, "this... This... I was confused for a moment and made a mistake."
"What sin should you commit?" Asked the national teacher.
The National Teacher's wife shivered and asked, "husband... What do you think?"
The national teacher said, "since you know you are wrong, you can choose whether to punish 20 boards or not for two days?"
"Husband, this......" the imperial master's wife doesn't want any of them.
When the national master saw the wife kneeling on the ground, she looked old and counselled, He couldn't help getting angry again: "you said, what else can you do in addition to having children these years? There's not enough serious work and there's more than failure. Over the years, I've kept you at home. I don't say anything about you. I didn't expect you to give me a moth at this time. It's really useless!"
Madam Guoshi was really counselled just now, but now she is ridiculed by Guoshi, She could not help but feel aggrieved: "Do you really think my family is useless? Tell me, who raised your children? You've been busy in the court all these years. Didn't I deal with the big and small affairs of the family? Didn't I bring up the children? The reason why my husband said these words is just because of the fox in the palace. I'm not old yet Take care of your face and run to the palace all day. I'm your wife, but you never look at me. Yes, I'm old and useless now, but you can't treat me as a decoration! "
Say something, The national teacher was even more angry: "It's your responsibility to marry me, have children and raise children. You know I'm busy in the court. Everything I do is for this family. As long as you stay at home, you won't be treated badly by your husband. But now, you not only make mistakes, but also don't repent. It seems that you never know where you're wrong if you don't give you a lesson!"
After the National Master said that, he ordered the housekeeper to come over: "take her down and blame 20 boards!"
The housekeeper hesitated: "this..."
"What is this? You can do whatever you are asked to do!"
Madam Guoshi stopped begging for mercy and crying, Instead, he laughed: "sure enough, sure enough, there's only the fox spirit in your heart. I'm just a tool for giving birth to children in your eyes these years. OK, just hit me and kill me. You'd better kill me, and then take the fox spirit out of the palace, so that you can be beautiful forever, ha ha..."
The national master was annoyed, so he ordered the housekeeper to hurry up.
The housekeeper had no choice but to order someone to drag the National Teacher's wife out.
……
Although the housekeeper has asked people to do it as lightly as possible, the National Teacher's wife is old after all and has 20 boards. This punishment is enough for her to not get out of bed for a month.
When the National Teacher's wife was scolded by the staff, she always scolded the national teacher and the empress dowager, and scolded God for having no eyes.
The news that the master's wife was punished by the staff spread all over the capital before long.
Many people were shocked when they heard about it: it turned out that the things that had been making a lot of noise some time ago were planned and spread by the National Teacher's wife!
Most people blame the master's wife one after another. Only a few people feel that the master's wife is poor. Her husband seduces other women outside. The wife is angry, but she spread some rumors and was scolded in front of the servants. In this way, what's the face of the master's wife? How will you live in the future?
After hearing this, the children of the national master came back to visit their mother, and those who were married hurried back from their mother-in-law's house.
After the National Teacher's wife was beaten in front of the servants, she was not only seriously injured physically, but also mentally. She didn't want to live. She couldn't eat it. Now she doesn't even want to drink medicine.
When the children came back, she lay on the bed and cried all the time. In addition to saying she was pathetic, she scolded the national teacher for being ruthless.
The children advised their father to see their mother, but the national teacher didn't want to. She only said that the National Teacher's wife was stupid and deserved to die for doing such a stupid thing.
The children knew that their father didn't want to see their mother before, and now they can't help feeling cold when they see their father so heartless.
The National Teacher's wife was seriously injured and depressed. After lying in bed for half a month, she gave up and went west. The hearts of her children were even colder.
After finishing the mother's affairs in a hurry, the children went back to their house. They planned not to return to the teacher's house again.
……
After the funeral of the master's wife, the people in the capital talked about the master's family after dinner.
In the past, they all thought that the National Teacher's wife had gone too far and even spread rumors to their husband, but now that the National Teacher's wife is dead, people think that the national teacher is the one who went too far.
No matter how, we can't force the hairy lady to death for many years. At least it's the children's mother. In this way, how cold the children should be.
However, no one talked about ye Xiaoxian anymore.
After the death of the National Teacher's wife, ye Xiaoxian withdrew from the rumor.
The previous rumors were all made by the master's wife and had nothing to do with her.
But when ye Xiaoxian heard of the death of the National Teacher's wife, she still felt a sadness in her heart. She knew the National Teacher's wife. In her opinion, the National Teacher's wife was just a resentful woman who had been neglected for many years, not particularly bad.
If the national teacher could give her a little warmth, she wouldn't be on a dead end.
She would not believe a word about the rumor that she was the biological daughter of the Empress Dowager and the national teacher.
……
In the palace, the Empress Dowager also heard of the death of the National Teacher's wife.
When she heard the news, the Empress Dowager sat in the house for a long time.
