Chapter 122 Angering the Emperor



Ni Gaofei was just passing by when he was startled by the servant who suddenly fainted. "Someone, help him up! Call a doctor!"

The doctor came hurriedly and examined the servant, concluding that he had been stung by a poisonous bee.

Yesterday, news broke that Ni Yueshuang was stung by a poisonous bee, and today another servant was stung by one...

Is this because the poisonous bees were not cleaned up?

"Come here, search the entire house, inside and out, drive out all the poisonous bees and burn them to death!"

Tian You had been waiting for Ni Gaofei to come back. She took the initiative to come over and said, "Master, Yue Shan admitted yesterday that the buffaloes she raised were poisonous bees. She is responsible for the sting of the servant today!"

Ni Gaofei glanced at Tian You and asked, "Why is she raising poisonous bees?"

"I don't know either, but the servant who was stung is from Yueshuang's courtyard. If Yueshan hadn't released the poisonous bee, how could it have stung someone from Yueshuang's courtyard? Master, this is probably targeting Yueshuang. This servant has suffered for Yueshuang!"

"Call Yueshan over."

Ni Gaofei spoke tiredly.

There are some things you don’t want to take care of, but you still have to.

After a while, Ni Yueshan was brought in front of Ni Gaofei.

"Meet Dad."

"Mrs. Tian said you have poisonous bees in your yard?"

“No.”

Ni Yueshan answered promptly and concisely.

Tian You looked at Ni Yueshan in surprise: "You're talking nonsense! Yesterday, you told Yueshuang and Hua Zhi in person that you should ask Ren Mei to go to the yard and get some horn bees to smell the fragrance of Hua Zhi's palm!"

"So that's why? Aunt Tian, ​​you really misunderstood me. I was trying to trick you yesterday. Was it Hua Zhi who pushed me in the crowd, so I lied about the existence of a buff-horn bee that could identify scents? In fact, buff-horn bees have never existed."

Hua Zhi stood aside, looking stunned. Cheating?

Ni Gaofei frowned even more tightly. "What do you mean by pushing you? What's going on?"

Ni Yueshan said innocently, "Father, the Second Prince returned to the capital yesterday, and my second sister and I went to watch the excitement. Unexpectedly, someone pushed me in the crowd, and I turned around and saw someone dressed as a maid from the Prime Minister's Mansion running away in a hurry."

"I returned to the Prime Minister's residence and blocked my second sister and Hua Zhi. I used a bumblebee to lie and said I could smell the fragrance on clothes. Hua Zhi fell for it and tacitly admitted that she was the one who pushed me!"

"But at night, my second sister was stung by a bee, and the next day, the servants were also stung. This is really weird. After all, I don't keep bees..."

Ni Yueshan looked innocent and depressed.

Tian You and Hua Zhi were dumbfounded...

Ni Gaofei also understood what was going on. It was a fabrication that caused such a big fuss out of nothing.

"Tian You!" Ni Gaofei called Tian You's name majestically. She shuddered, "Master."

"If Yue Shuang is stung, then take good care of her. If a servant in this courtyard is stung, don't let anyone feel resentful and compensate her properly."

Tian You looked grim, "Yes."

Ni Gaofei looked at Hua Zhi and asked sternly, "Why did you push the young lady?"

Hua Zhi knelt down when questioned: "I know I was wrong. I was squeezed by others, so I accidentally pushed the young lady out!"

"Really? Shouldn't you stand with your master? Why was Yue Shan the one who was pushed away instead of your master?"

Hua Zhi choked and didn't know how to defend himself.

Ni Yueshan looked aggrieved: "He must have come over and pushed me on purpose! He probably wanted me to fall out and embarrass myself!"

Ni Gaofei said sternly, "Do you admit your guilt?"

Hua Zhi flinched, "I know I was wrong, I did the wrong thing."

"I know. It's unreasonable for a maid like you to push her. It must be your master's order!"

Hua Zhi prostrated himself on the ground: "No, it was I who acted on my own initiative!"

Tian You said anxiously, "This slave has always been bold. This time she took the initiative to push someone. I will let Yue Shuang punish her severely!"

Ni Gaofei glanced at Tian You with a cold expression: "Disposal? Do you still want to keep a maid like this for Yue Shuang? She pushed Yue Shan out this time. What if the team on the street is the emperor? Who will bear the responsibility for the offense!"

Tian You said with some depression: "Master, isn't this too much of an exaggeration? This maidservant is not that stupid. She dares to... "

Ni Gaofei slammed his palm on the table: "A maid like this is a disaster if we keep her!"

Hua Zhi's face gradually turned pale: "Master, I know I am wrong. I did something wrong. Please give me another chance!"

Facing Hua Zhi who kept kowtowing, Ni Gaofei showed no sympathy: "Kick him out of the house!"

Hua Zhi looked panicked: "No, Master, if I leave the Prime Minister's Mansion, I will have no way to survive, Master..."

"Yes, Master, Hua Zhi has served Yue Shuang for many years. If he is driven away now, will the people in the mansion feel that the Prime Minister's Mansion is indifferent? Master, it is better to demote him to a low-ranking servant..."

"That's enough! Don't I have the right to deal with a servant in my house?"

Tian You kept his mouth shut obediently, and failed to sue Ni Yueshan, and even lost a maid.

Hua Zhi couldn't control his emotions and burst into tears.

Ni Yueshan said seriously, "Dad, please also replace the servants in my mother's room."

Ni Gaofei was suspicious: "Why, are they slacking off?"

"Although they are all old people who serve my mother, as old people, they are not as careful as new people. Changing the people around them can re-establish prestige and make people more loyal."

Ni Yueshan is not the kind of person who makes trouble, maybe there is a reason for that.

After a moment of silence, Ni Gaofei replied, "Go discuss it with the housekeeper."
