Rebirth Against All Odds: The Cunning Heiress's Eldest Daughter
Chapter 258 More Important Matters
When Shangguan Wenyong heard this, his brows were deeply frowned immediately, "Hui'er, what is so important? Can't we do it another day? You have suffered such a disaster, and the whole family is worried about you day and night. Your grandmother, even for several consecutive days I knelt in front of the Buddhist hall and prayed for you. Now that you are out of danger, you should go back and report to them that you are safe."
"Report safe and wait later, my daughter has very important things to do now."
After speaking in a hurry, Shangguan Hui turned around and walked towards the palace gate again.But unfortunately, she was stopped by the guard general at the gate of the palace.
"Miss Shangguan, sorry, no one is allowed to enter the palace without a summons!"
Shangguan Hui turned around, but did not leave immediately.The uneasiness in her heart swelled, and she had a premonition that something must have happened to Tian'er!
"Qingluan!"
In desperation, she had no choice but to call out Qingluan who was secretly protecting her.Leaning close to Qingluan's ear, he whispered something to her.
After Qingluan heard this, she nodded firmly to her, flew together, and disappeared in an instant.
Not long after, in the punishment department in the palace, two eunuchs held sticks and clubs in their forehand hands, and beat Xiao Tianxiang's back mercilessly one after another.
As expected of a real man, Xiao Tianxiang didn't utter the slightest cry of pain under such a stick.
"Eunuch Xu, wait a minute!"
Just when the rod punishment was nearly halfway through, a young eunuch slipped into the place of the punishment department, called the eunuch leader Xu Kun who was in charge of the palace punishment aside, and took out a thick wad of very considerable silver from his arms. ticket.
Xu Kun looked at the thick stack of bank notes in the little eunuch's hand, although he was greedy, he still hesitated.
"It's His Majesty's will, this...isn't that good?"
The little eunuch was also clever. Hearing the words, there was a flattering smile on his face, "Elder-in-law, you can rest assured, just ask for a light beating, and don't kill yourself. No matter how you say, this young master of the Xiao family is also the empress's younger brother. If he was beaten to death, it would be difficult for the father-in-law to explain to the empress, right?"
When Xu Kun heard this, the little eunuch must have instructed the queen to say this.Although he acted according to the emperor's orders, the empress is the head of the harem, so she can't be blamed.
After several considerations, Xu Kun pocketed the check.
The little eunuch finished his work, walked out of the criminal department, and immediately ran to the slender man waiting in a hidden corner.
"My lord, the matter has been settled. Don't worry, Xu Kun promised to save Mr. Xiao's life."
"Hmm~!"
Feng Yebei responded lightly, threw a piece of silver to the little eunuch, then turned around and strode away.
~~.~~
Shangguan Hui returned to Shangguan Mansion safely.This was supposed to be a happy event for the whole family, but the Xiangfu was strangely shrouded in an inexplicable low pressure. Even when she went to pay her respects to her grandmother, the old lady only said "It's good to be back" and then He sighed again and again.
In this oppressive atmosphere, only Mrs. Liu, although there was no expression on his face, but the corners of his mouth slightly curved upwards always seemed to be smiling, with a hint of 'gloating'.
Leaving the old lady's Hengwu Pavilion, Shangguanhui was about to go and see her sister, but was stopped by Qing'er who rushed over after hearing the news of her return.
"Miss, why don't you go to Miss Lian'er's place for now?"
Qing'er has a worried look on his face.She is certainly happy that the young lady came back safely, but when she thinks of Miss Lianer, she... oh...
"What happened to my sister? But what happened to the mansion during the two days I was away?"
Qing'er planned to hide it first.The young lady came back from all the calamities, and didn't even have a mouthful of hot tea.If she told the young lady about this matter, with the young lady's temper, she would rush to Miss Lian'er immediately, even if she was willing to rest.
"Qing'er!"
