Chapter 1305 Rumors are spreading (7)

After lunch, Caiwei left with Liu Xi. Before the time she agreed with Xiangyun, she went back to the house where she used to work as a warehouse and took out the set of rosewood furniture in the space boudoir. , and took in the same style of golden nanmu and sandalwood furniture that he had kept as a dowry in this mansion.

This set of rosewood furniture is nominally a gift for Cai Lian, but in fact it is to show off the dignity of Aunt Mu and Uncle Mu. The two of them make a living by buying roasted seeds and nuts and cannot afford decent furniture. , their mother gave them brocade clothes, bed tents, vases and ornaments from Ding kiln, but if they used their own rough furniture to match these things, they would look awkward and shabby. Therefore, putting this set of furniture is both It won’t be as conspicuous as huanghuali purple and sandalwood, and it won’t be as shabby as their own rough furniture. It’s just right!

After placing the furniture, she took fifty pieces of glass, twenty pieces of fine leather, a box of pearls of various colors, twelve pieces of jade, large and small, and several boxes of expensive rouge and gouache from Mi Fangzhai. Zhang Mingren's calligraphy and paintings, etc., and also sealed a hundred taels of gold as a congratulatory gift. After collecting a lot, he called Liu Xi and ordered him to go back to the palace to find some cars and give these things to Mu Sanshu and Mu San. Aunt sent it over.

After finishing her work, it was already the scheduled meeting time with Xiangyun. When she came to Zhenbao Pavilion, she did not see the carriage of Duke Li Guo or Xiangyun's carriage in front of the Zhenbao Pavilion. She was surprised and put on her hat curtain. Go down and go into the shop to ask.

Seeing the Queen's boss coming, the shopkeeper rushed out and invited her to the private room upstairs to rest and have tea. Caiwei refused and asked if Xiangyun was here.

The shopkeeper said: "Master, I'm afraid Mrs. Mo will not be able to come today. I just heard a lady gossiping with another lady and said that Mrs. Mo's carriage was surprised on the street in Surabaya this morning and hit someone. "Young Master, I wonder what your situation is like, Madam?"

When Caiwei heard this, she hurriedly contacted Changmei with her mind. She had sent Changmei to protect Xiangyun before, but unexpectedly, the monkey didn't tell her about such a big thing.

Changmei received the message from the master and said guiltily: "Master, it's my fault. When I secretly followed the young lady into the city this morning, I saw a wild pear tree on the roadside, so I stopped to eat a few because of my greed. Pears, I didn't even think about eating a few pears, but something like this happened. But don't worry, Madam, she is fine, unscathed, and is now taking care of the patients who were injured by the carriage in Yishan Hall."

Hearing that Xiangyun was fine, Caiwei was relieved and Ming Changmei continued to stare there. If anything happened, he would notify her immediately.

After hearing this, Changmei immediately agreed and stared intently at the movement in Yishan Hall.

The wounded who were injured by the horses were comforted. Xiangyun was a generous person. He could not help but compensate the injured people for their medical expenses. He also gave generous compensation according to the severity of the injuries. The people got money, and naturally It also stopped.

The wounded people calmed down, but they didn't know that this incident had caused an uproar in the capital.

At this time, in the streets, alleys, teahouses and restaurants, everyone was discussing this matter enthusiastically, and the enthusiasm was much higher than that of the deposed prince that day.

From ancient times to the present, people have been born with the psychology of peeking into other people's privacy, and are especially curious about the privacy of rich and noble families. Therefore, after witnessing an incident where the mother of an outsider stopped her horse and complained about injustice, the handsome male hero After the wonderful performance of saving the United States, the capital became lively, and everyone was talking about it. From the original original image, after a morning of dissemination and fermentation, it has developed into multiple versions with ambiguous sentiments.

The first is: After the young lady from Jian'an Marquis Mansion married, her husband doted on his concubine and killed his wife, so she was forced to hide in Zhuangzi. Unwilling to be lonely, the young lady secretly fell in love with a beautiful man in Zhuangzi. After being discovered by her husband, she wanted to have sex with him. The murder was silenced, and the frightening horse in the street today was the work of her husband. As a result, the young lady was saved by a handsome man with whom she was in love. It is said that the young lady and her lover had a deep and strong relationship, and the two of them were together. They flirted with each other in full public view, and the young lady even acted coquettishly to him in the street!

Another version is even more outrageous: It is said that the young lady had a good relationship with the handsome man who saved people in her natal family, but in order to cling to the powerful, the Marquis of Jian'an and his wife beat the couple, so that the young lady had to part ways with her sweetheart, and the young lady had to part ways with her sweetheart. After the lady married into the palace, her husband discovered that she was not perfect, so he demoted her to the village. The concubine wanted to take this opportunity to ascend to the throne, and arranged a perfect murder on the street, but unexpectedly she was secretly followed by the young lady. The lover next to her was saved, and the young lady survived the disaster. She was so excited that she hugged her lover in the street...

The third version: Mr. Li of Duke Li's mansion spoiled his concubine and killed his wife. In order to make the concubine his wife, he beat his wife's wet nurse to death and drove his wife to live in Zhuangzi. The wife was so angry that she sent the concubine away. After being imprisoned, the concubine's mother was displeased and came to seek revenge. She deliberately frightened the horse and wanted to teach her a lesson. However, she was rescued by a knight who had always been secretly in love with his real wife...

The fourth version...

The fifth version...

The rumors spread more and more, and before nightfall, there were more than a dozen versions of this hot topic, and each version was spread by people who had noses and eyes, and the parties who testified could even be found!

The gossip was so popular that of course it also spread to Duke Li Guo's palace.

When Duke Li Guo heard the news, he only heard three or two versions of it. He was so angry that he urgently reported it to the imperial physician. The old lady was also trembling with anger. She slapped the table and shouted that she wanted to report it to Ying Tianfu Fu Yin. Come here and let him find the person who spread the rumors and caused trouble and deal with them severely.

Although Mo Yuanshan was angry, he was still relatively rational. He advised the old lady: "Mom, as the saying goes, it is better to defend the people than to defend the river. Now that this matter is being spread throughout the capital, how can we arrest a few people for spreading rumors?" People can stop the people's mouths!"

"Then what do you think we should do? Now, the reputation of our Duke Li Guo Mansion has been completely ruined..."

The old lady was beating her chest with tears streaming down her face, looking very sad.

Seeing that the old lady was angry, Mo Qingshan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Mom, there is no need to be sad. My son will send people to call the evil couple back. We must work out a perfect solution and never let the reputation of Liguo Gongfu go to waste." Destroyed!"

The old lady couldn't think of any good ideas for a while, so she had to agree.

At that moment, Mo Qingshan called Butler Han and ordered him to take people to Zhuangzi immediately to bring Mo Zili and his wife back.

Butler Han knew that the matter was of great importance, so he immediately took his people and rushed to Zhuangzi. As a result, the young master was the only one in Zhuangzi, and the young lady hadn't come back yet!

When Mo Zili saw Butler Han coming here so late, he knew something must be going on, so he asked him what he was doing here.

Butler Han couldn't be questioned, and because he was afraid of Mo Zili, he didn't dare to hide it and truthfully told Mo Zili what was said outside.
