Chapter 42: Dealing with the Zhang Family's Second Generation Ancestor
It turns out that this is the fun of having children, not for the sake of having a support in the palace.
It's interesting to see her various reactions.
Above all, she could hear her inner voice.
She is not a monster, but auspicious.
Seeing that Mr. Zhang's words were becoming more and more outrageous, Concubine Fang signaled with her eyes and the palace maids stepped forward to stop him.
"Master Zhang, you must not speak obscene words in front of the master. It will humiliate the master's noble ears."
Zhang's father reluctantly shut up, and Mrs. Zhang dared to explain: "I, I was too impatient, Fang'er... Concubine Fang."
"How could the Queen Mother ignore me? We have been friends for more than 30 years."
Although Concubine Fang hated her for not fighting, she still kindly explained to her: "It's just to protect your mother, so of course it's okay for the Queen Mother."
"But you insist on sticking to your foolish husband and helping him to confuse right and wrong and tolerate evil."
"Don't tell me that you didn't do anything about my elder brother."
"People outside don't recognize your father, a useless person. They only recognize you, a lady of the first rank who is protected by the empress dowager."
"No, it's the former First Rank Lady."
"And your act of shielding her nearly cost the Queen Mother her life."
"When will you be so shameless that you will feel that you are not qualified to take risks and continue to care for you just because of your muddle-headed mind?"
Even though she was determined to ignore her, Concubine Fang still reminded her at this time.
After she finished speaking, Mrs. Zhang was silent for a long time, and even Zhang's father felt a little uneasy.
Bei Jingchu and Concubine Fang couldn't help but look forward to it. Could it be that she really had let it go?
Finally, she summoned up her courage and said, "Fang Fei, how can you say your father is stupid?"
Concubine Fang: ...
Bei Jingchu: [凎! ]
[Mad loves brains, he won't even eat zombies.]
Although Concubine Fang didn't understand what a zombie meant, she thought it might be some kind of ghost.
But she could sense the strong disdain in these words.
She herself also dislikes it.
"In short, I have only one thing to say: do not cause trouble again."
But the two old stubborn men obviously didn't listen.
But it didn't matter, she would make them listen.
A maid came in and reported: "Master, the evidence of the Zhang family's crimes has been collected."
The two elders were suspicious, and Concubine Fang stretched out her hand, "Bring it here."
The maid handed it over respectfully, and Concubine Fang opened it.
Bei Jingchu stretched his little head to look, and Concubine Fang smiled helplessly when she saw this.
Seeing her trying so hard to stretch her short neck, she really seemed to be trying very hard.
Concubine Fang considerately moved her hand down a little and placed it in front of Bei Jingchu.
Bei Jing saw it at first glance, but: [Awkward, I don’t understand~TAT]
This is fucking seal script!
Although she can recognize seal characters, for example: the kind used by Qin Shi Huang to pay money.

Sentences like this are easy to understand and have no reading difficulties.
But it doesn't work when it comes to the classical Chinese in Concubine Fang's hand.
Compulsory education lasts for nine years, but now we are back to the time before liberation.
She covered her eyes with her chubby little hands, not wanting to face the world.
Concubine Fang almost couldn't hold back her laughter, it was so adorable.
But her good mood gradually disappeared when she read the contents of the memorial, and her delicate eyebrows became more and more wrinkled.
After reading it, she threw the memorial on the table.
"Okay, that's great. Do you have any other surprises that I don't know about?"
After what happened to Boss Zhang, she knew that there were definitely people in the Zhang family who were as tyrannical as the others.
So when he returned home, he asked someone to inquire the servants at home.
But I didn’t expect so much.
It's simply insane.
Everyone who thought the trip was over and had already returned to their rooms were called back.
Miss Zhang Qi spoke respectfully, but everyone could hear her impatience.
"Sister, can you please finish what you want to say at once? The brothers and sisters must be tired from running back and forth all the time."
After saying that she yawned.
Zhang Qi has always been the favored one in the family, mainly by his father.
So Mrs. Zhang also followed suit.
Concubine Fang knew that she had always been an insignificant sister in her eyes, and was just lucky enough to enter the palace.
They may think that they came back this time because they have risen to prominence and they came back specifically to show off.
Indeed, since she is here, of course she has to show off.
But more importantly, it is to deal with this group of playboys.
She found out what Zhang Qigan had done: "In the second year of Hongdao, you beat your maid to death because she broke your vase."
"Do you admit it?"
Zhang Qi was stunned for a moment, then relaxed.
"I thought it was a big deal, why are you so serious? It's just a slave girl, if she dies, she dies."
Bei Jingchu was shocked. Is this the aristocracy in feudal society?
Don't care about human life at all. A life is not worth more than a vase.
Concubine Fang sat at the top, her brows tightly knitted.
"Maidens can be punished, but beating and killing them at will is also against the law."
Zhang Qi felt a little guilty, but he said confidently, "So what? Can you find evidence?"
"If I can't find any evidence, even the government can't do anything to me."
Bei Jingchu was a little sad: [Indeed, Concubine Fang asked the servants in the mansion to collect the information.]
【When the government solves a case, in addition to witnesses, they also need physical evidence. 】
[Is it really impossible to deal with these second-generation rich people? 】
[Who cares? I'm just here to watch the fun.]
Concubine Fang smiled slightly and said that the government needed evidence.
However, this does not mean that she has no way to deal with Zhang Qi.
"Someone, come and tell me the family rules."
There is no need for an elder sister to teach her younger sister.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang's father stood up suddenly.
"Your sister is so weak, how can a girl stand the punishment?"
"If you have any brotherly love at all, take back your words."
Zhang Qi was very scared at first, but when he saw Zhang's father stand up and finish speaking, he straightened his neck proudly again.
"Sister, you've made Aye angry again. I've already told you that Aye loves me the most and asked you not to mess with me."
Bei Jing first felt that she might develop breast nodules at such a young age. She was really angry at these people:
[I thought Concubine Fang was still the little girl who was afraid of her father and dared not disobey him? ]
[I am a concubine now. Do you understand what a concubine means? 】
【Don’t bother with this old man. 】
[Look at your proud look, don't scream too much when you get beaten. ]
Concubine Fang looked unhappy, and Bei Jingchu stretched out her little hand to touch her.
[Auntie, don't cry. Not all parents love their children. ]
【But you have power and influence, you have much more than both of them. 】
[You may not be able to make them love you, but you can make them beg you. ]
Concubine Fang: ...You comforted me very well. Don’t comfort me next time.
In fact, she was loved when she was just born.
There were still few children at that time, and her parents only had two children, her and her brother.
When she was one month old, her father personally buried a pot of red wine for her.
But the more children you have, the less valuable the one who doesn’t know how to please others will be.
After they finished speaking, Concubine Fang returned to her thoughts and said indifferently:
"When I was less than ten years old, my father used family rules to punish me and ordered all my brothers and sisters to come to visit."
"My son has lost all his dignity. He used to be able to ride a horse and whip a whip, but now he can only play the pipa."
