Chapter 335: Xie Yingfeng didn’t explain?
Su Jixiang brought Zheng Wenxiu all the way into the general's mansion.
Zheng Wenxiu was temporarily placed in a side hall, and Su Jixiang had tea and snacks served.
"I didn't expect to invite Mrs. Cui in this way." Su Jixiang said with a faint smile.
Zheng Wenxiu was disdainful in her heart, but she still kept a polite expression on her face, "Thank you Madam Hou for your help."
"I'm afraid this isn't the first time the Marquis' Mansion has helped Madam Cui." Su Jixiang said with a smile, "No need to mention it."
Zheng Wenxiu almost overturned the tea bowl on the table.
Is this helpful?
Regardless of whether there was anything fishy about the robbers I encountered on the way to Mangcheng for the first time, the siege of Li Garden by the people this time might have something to do with these people!
"Lord Marquis and Lord Xie really love the people like their own children." Zheng Wenxiu said with a fake smile, "The people have become so chaotic, yet they don't suppress them at all!"
"People's anger and resentment always need to be vented." Su Jixiang said with a smile, "Besides, the people did not have any other excessive demands when they surrounded Liyuan this time. They just wanted to ask Lord Cui to approve the Black Tiger Army to use explosives to eliminate the hidden danger of the ice flood!"
Su Jixiang would not be frightened by Zheng Wenxiu. She said calmly, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, "This public anger and resentment will not be in vain, Madam Cui, don't you think so?"
What can Zheng Wenxiu say? Nothing she says is right!
"These are men's affairs in the government office, and we women in the inner house are not in a position to comment too much." Zheng Wenxiu said.
"Indeed." Su Jixiang raised his eyes. "If Madam Cui feels that these are matters that men should take care of, then is it redundant for me to bring Madam Cui out? After all, Master Cui can handle it all by himself."
Su Jixiang doesn't tolerate Zheng Wenxiu.
In the capital, you might be a hot pot, but this is Mangcheng!
After Su Jixiang finished speaking, he glanced at Zheng Wenxiu. "Why don't I have someone send Madam back and wait for Lord Cui to resolve this matter?"
Zheng Wenxiu's face changed.
When she came out of Lee Garden just now, she saw how tough the people were.
"In Mangcheng, if an enemy attacks, even women will take up arms to fight." Su Jixiang said with a smile, "So this border city has no rules!"
Zheng Wenxiu's head shrank slightly when she heard this.
"Madam is right." Zheng Wenxiu knew that if she really left the Marquis' Mansion, nothing good would happen.
She is the daughter of the Minister of Revenue. If she were really humiliated by some vegetable leaves thrown at her by those unruly people in the north, and if the news got to the capital, how would she be able to hold her head up in the circle of noble ladies in the future!
"I'd better wait here for my wife to come back!" Zheng Wenxiu was scared.
"Yes." Su Jixiang smiled, "Someone bring some cakes to Madam Cui to calm her down."
After she finished speaking, she said to Zheng Wenxiu, "I have sent someone to invite Master Cui. I believe he will be here soon. Please sit with me in this side hall for a while, and we can talk about other things after your master comes back."
What else could Zheng Wenxiu say? She could only sit obediently here with Su Jixiang.
She looked down upon Su Jixiang, a little palace maid who was even a woodcutter, but now she had become the marquis's wife!
He just looked down on him, but he couldn't do anything about Su Jixiang.
Zheng Wenxiu looked outside and said, "This general's mansion is not very big!"
"Yes, my husband doesn't like big yards." Su Jixiang said with a smile.
This is a small courtyard, and Su Jixiang is the only mistress in this mansion, so she is so arrogant... If...
Zheng Wenxiu had some evil thoughts.
How long can a little palace maid keep the marquis' heart?
Although Wei Ling was the prince of the Duke's Mansion, he was still young. When the Duke's Mansion collapsed, he probably didn't even know how to handle human affairs. When he came to this broken place of Mangcheng, Su Jixiang looked like this...
Zheng Wenxiu looked at Su Jixiang's eyebrows and had to say that Su Jixiang's eyebrows were extremely beautiful!
He does have some ability to seduce people!
But there are so many beautiful women out there, what do men really want? A woman who can speak eloquently!
If Wei Ling could see more, this marquisate would not be dominated by Su Jixiang alone!
Zheng Wenxiu lowered her eyes and hooked her sleeves, a gleam of light flashing in her eyes.
She has a concubine sister in her family who is good-looking and has an easy-to-control personality. As long as you control her aunt, there is no need to worry about her being disobedient.
When she returns this time, she will write a letter to her father.
If I can win over Wei Ling by giving up my half sister, it will be a good thing for my father!
Su Jixiang didn’t know what Zheng Wenxiu was thinking with her head down, and she was too lazy to care!
After the tea was served, the two of them sat here and chatted about random things, but the content of their conversation was all meaningless.
About half an hour later, Cui Yushan and Wei Ling entered the side hall together.
Seeing Zheng Wenxiu sitting here peacefully, Cui Yushan's expression seemed to relax a little.
"Are you scared?" Cui Yushan asked softly.
Zheng Wenxiu nodded.
She was really frightened. She had never experienced this since she was a child. Even when Wei Ling swept through the chaos in the capital, her family was sent to the manor by her father for protection. They had never experienced the chaos in the capital. They were sent to the manor and taken back to the capital only after the situation stabilized.
Cui Yushan glared at Wei Ling.
Wei Ling sneered, "Master Cui, your eyesight seems to be not good!"
"My Lord, you are the real leader of Mangcheng. Now that there is civil unrest in Mangcheng, how do you plan to deal with it?" Cui Yushan asked.
"Not to mention that you are just a clerk in the foundry department and have no right to stand here and question me. Even if you claimed to be an imperial envoy when you came here, you are no longer one now!" Wei Ling said calmly, "How can there be civil unrest in Mangcheng? Just throwing some bitter vegetable leaves and rotten vegetable stems along the street is considered civil unrest? I'm afraid you haven't seen Mangcheng a few years ago."
Cui Yushan was speechless for a moment after being criticized.
"I will report this to the court!" Cui Yushan said angrily. "I will tell His Majesty everything that happened here."
"Okay, you'd better write down clearly why they only surrounded where you live and not where I live," Wei Ling said.
"If you can't write it clearly, I'll let Xie Yingfeng help you write it clearly!" Wei Ling continued.
"My Lord." Zheng Wenxiu saw that things were going to get awkward. She knew that this place was still Wei Ling's territory, and there was no need for a real conflict with Wei Ling. She quickly bowed and said, "My husband has just arrived in Mangcheng and doesn't know what Lingxun is, nor does he know the harm it can cause. My Lord, please don't be angry."
When she was chatting with Su Jixiang just now, Su Jixiang gave her some basic knowledge about what the ice flood of Songshui River is.
"Didn't Xie Yingfeng tell you when he went to ask for gunpowder?" Wei Ling glanced at Cui Yushan.
