Chapter 1164: Queen: I plan!
After such a big incident, it is naturally impossible to calm it down.
Not to mention waiting until the next day, that evening, Xia Fengxiang's desk already had memorials criticizing Yan Ruyu, and even Su Changan had sent quite a few.
After all, Ruyu is the deputy commander of the Chixia Army, and also the captain of the Fengluan Guard.
Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang did not see Ruyu that day. After returning to the palace, she ran to the Chixia Army prison by herself.
After Xia Fengxiang found out about this, he rolled his eyes in anger, so he didn't let Ruyu out. He just let her stay in there for one night.
What made me angry most was that I ended up in jail.
During this time, Su Changan went to see Master Liu Kan and then went to see Xun Kuang.
When the two saw Su Changan coming in person, Liu Kan, in particular, was shocked and hurriedly saluted, but the eye sockets on his face were blue and purple, and even his nose was red and stuffed with cotton.
When talking to Su Changan, Master Liu looked really miserable.
However, when Su Changan and Master Liu apologized on Ruyu's behalf, Master Liu became even more frightened, as if all the resentment in his heart had been dissipated and he had no place to vent it.
But Su Changan came prepared. He checked Mr. Liu's hobbies before arriving. It turned out that the old man was his supporter, highly respected the concept of "unity of knowledge and action", and praised him very much.
So before coming here, I specially revised Yan Zhenqing's poem encouraging learning in my previous life, copied it and took it with me. When I met Master Liu, I gave it to him and asked him to recite it to the students when he returned.
The old man looked at the words, feeling deeply moved and unable to understand them, but when he read the poem, his anger disappeared.
And where is Xun Kuang.
When Su Changan went over, Xun Kuang was lying on the bed. He said that he had been kicked several times on the buttocks by Ruyu and he was afraid to lie down because it hurt.
Seeing the Queen, Xun Kuang burst into tears and said, "I didn't do anything, Queen."
Su Changan looked at Xun Kuang and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Xun Kuang really suffered an unexpected disaster.
But at that time, based on Su Changan's understanding of Ruyu, whoever was there would be beaten.
All I can say is that Xun Kuang was unlucky.
However, Su Changan did not give Xun Kuang any poems or anything like that. He just gave him a sample of a Dragon Boat Festival doll that he made himself. It was not very pretty, but it was unique. Then he said, "You should reflect on yourself. As for Ruyu, I will scold her for you."
Su Changan left.
Xun Kuang was holding a rag doll that looked like a zongzi in his hand. He especially liked the little face, hands and feet. Although he found it novel, he didn't understand why he should reflect on himself after being beaten.
The next morning at the court, the censors were already ready.
But when everyone saw the Lord Chief Priest, they were all surprised, because his nose was red, which showed that he had been punched.
But the chief priest said nothing.
In the morning court, when the censors were impeaching Ruyu, Mu Xu stood up and said, "Liu Kan and Xun Kuang deserved it."
This immediately left the court officials stunned.
In Lingqi Pavilion, Xia Fengxiang was naturally not present at the morning court session.
Yan Ruyu was taken out of the prison by Maomao and Yu Kuangxuan early in the morning and brought back to Lingqi Pavilion.
So now, Su Changan was sitting in the hall, watching Yan Ruyu eating.
Yan Ruyu lowered her head and did not dare to look up at Su Changan. Children who have made mistakes usually behave like this.
No one else in the courtyard dared to speak and just looked at the Queen.
Maomao sat next to Yan Ruyu, as if she was ready to argue with Yan Ruyu at any time.
Finally, Su Changan broke the silence, looked at Yan Ruyu and asked, "Did you feel good after beating him up yesterday?"
Yan Ruyu was startled, but nodded honestly: "Yeah."
But after saying that, Yan Ruyu said: "My lady, I..."
Su Changan continued, "Just be happy, why would you want to wrong yourself?"
Yan Ruyu was stunned and looked at Su Changan with surprise.
Su Changan continued, "You haven't eaten since yesterday, and now you're eating these?"
Yan Ruyu raised her eyes to look at Su Changan, first gritted her teeth, then put down her bowl and chopsticks, stood up and clasped her fists towards Su Changan: "Madam, I was reckless, I know I was wrong, and I will go to apologize to Master Liu and Xun Siye later."
Su Changan looked at Yan Ruyu and said, "Your fault is not here. Although hitting someone is wrong, you were scolded first, and the cause and effect are clear. Besides, the beating is in the past. I went to deal with those two people for you, and it's over. But next time you hit someone, I will take you to apologize together. It's embarrassing for me to go alone."
Yan Ruyu looked at Su Changan and lowered her head with some guilt. She had heard all this from Maomao and Yu Kuangxuan.
It is absolutely wrong to ask the Queen to apologize on her behalf.
However, Su Changan looked at Yan Ruyu and continued, "Sit down and eat first."
Yan Ruyu looked up at Su Changan, seeming a little hesitant and not knowing what to say, but she did not move and did not sit down to continue eating.
Even though Maomao pulled her clothes and motioned for her to sit down, Yan Ruyu remained motionless.
Su Changan looked at Yan Ruyu and smiled, "Did you know that His Majesty and I were angry?"
Yan Ruyu nodded, "I was just thinking about having a good time at the time, and I brought trouble and shame to you and your majesty."
Su Changan cursed: "What trouble have you caused us? What people have you lost?"
Yan Ruyu opened her mouth, but she couldn't help but shut it when she looked at Su Changan.
Su Changan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is not angry with you for being reckless about beating people. Although it cannot be said that beating people is right, Your Majesty is angry that you went to the Chixia Army prison. What a big deal! You went to the prison. You couldn't win the argument and resorted to violence. The person is fine, and it's just a superficial injury. Why did you go to the prison? Just be gentler next time. Xun Kuang beat him, but it's nothing. Liu Kan is so old, and you gave him two black eyes. How can he still attend class? As for my anger..."
At this point, Su Changan picked up the needle on the table and said, "I was actually planning to ignore you for three days."
This is true.
But when he saw Yan Ruyu standing pitifully and cautiously in the yard in the morning, Su Changan softened his heart and gave up the idea.
But as soon as he said this, Maomao immediately pulled Ruyu's sleeve and whispered, "Hurry up and thank me. It's only three days. I feel so comfortable."
Su Changan looked at Maomao and said, "Don't say anything. You are the one who corrupted Ruyu."
Maomao glanced at Su Changan and said "tsk".
Su Changan frowned. There are two rebellious girls at home. Just tell me what to do!
However, Su Changan ignored Maomao and looked at Ruyu and said, "But you are not as bad as Maomao, so I will still pay attention to you. But next time when we go to Huajie, if you sneak out without me, I will be really angry."
Yan Ruyu looked at Su Changan, and seeing the empress's smile, she couldn't help but swallow those words, but she was a little surprised.
Su Changan went on to say, "As for you this time, you must be punished. It's impossible for you to hit someone in the street without any punishment. You will be fined for three months' salary. I think His Majesty has already announced it in the court. This is a very heavy punishment. After all, I am implicated. You will not receive salary for three months. During these three months, we will be away from home. I have to find a way to make Sheyue willing to spend money for me."
Yan Ruyu blinked.
Su Changan walked to Yan Ruyu and pulled her to sit at the table. "You didn't hit me out of arrogance. You just couldn't win the argument with the scholar, so you had to use your fists. Seeing that you didn't let yourself be wronged, His Majesty, Aunt Yan and Uncle Yan are all very happy. You can do the same next time."
As he was talking, Su Changan also sat down at the table: "Eat, I have to wait for the meals sent by the concubines and elders outside the palace to come in to eat. They took the trouble to make them for me, so I have to return the favor with sincerity. If you feel bad about this, run an errand for me later, and that will be your compensation for the three months I couldn't spend your salary."
As he spoke, Su Changan took out a piece of paper and said, "You can go with Qiu Shui. She has always wanted to go to Dian Jiang Chun. When you go, you can show your identity and take the things according to the list. Just put it in Li Heng's account."
Yan Ruyu felt complicated because it was different from what she had expected. She thought that the Empress would lecture her and the Emperor would punish her.
Qiu Shui, who was wiping a vase nearby, heard this, blinked, and immediately looked at Su Changan with excitement.
Su Changan looked at her and smiled gently, "You can take whatever you want, and just put it on Li Heng's account. The little fat man has money."
Qiu Shui thanked him quickly, then ran to Yan Ruyu with a happy face.
But after taking a few glances at the top, he lowered his head to look at Su Changan: "Madam, aren't these men's hairpins and clothes? What do you want these for?"
Su Changan said, "I thought that the ladies wore men's clothes at the banquet."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Su Changan, who looked confident and seemed to have a plan.
Your Majesty, what are you going to do? Won't you be beaten by His Majesty again?
…
Xia Fengxiang was sitting on the dragon throne, and an official below was talking about how the rumors in the market were getting more and more intense recently, saying that the empress was not a man and that the two emperors would have no heirs.
He also guessed that it was someone arranged by Shu who did this, and wanted to get an order to investigate the matter thoroughly.
While listening, Xia Fengxiang looked at Mu Xu.
Mu Xu lowered his head and rubbed his nose with his hand. He seemed to feel something and couldn't help but look up.
The four looked into each other's eyes.
Mu Xu immediately looked aggrieved, as if to say, "You have to make the decision for me."
Xia Fengxiang withdrew his gaze, not looking at Mu Xu, but suppressed the corners of his mouth.
It is said that Aunt Yan went to the Imperial College yesterday and went directly to the Muxu Jijiu Department Hall. The first thing she said was, "Your students and your subordinates scolded my daughter. Give me an explanation."
Mu Xu was puzzled, but was about to speak.
Aunt Yan stood up and said, "Forget it. I don't want to listen to your reasoning. I'll make my own decision."
Then
The old scholar was punched, and when he came to his senses and looked back, Aunt Yan was gone.
What is this?
Zhuo Wen, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, stood up and bowed to Xia Fengxiang. "Your Majesty, what Lord Lin said is indeed getting worse. I have also heard about this when I was walking around in the streets recently. Although the words are inappropriate, they are suspected of misleading people. We should investigate it."
Xia Fengxiang heard: "Whatever they say, it's fine. But if you think it's necessary to investigate, just do it as you wish."
…
Ps: Don’t worry about my schedule, there will be plenty of updates for you to see.
