Chapter 449

"Why, now even you are starting to fight against me?" Concubine De didn't show any anger even if Elder Fourteen told her about it.

Instead, he looked at Brother Fourteen with doting eyes.

The fourteenth elder brother bowed his hands to Ruoyin a few times to express his intentions.

Just stepped on the steps, walked up to Concubine De, and said with a hearty smile: "Emiang, how dare my son go against you, my son is just seeking truth from facts."

After speaking, he gestured to the maid in the center of the hall.

Seeing this, Concubine De also looked at the court lady, and said calmly: "Since Fourteen asked you to speak, you can speak and listen."

"Returning to your mother, when the maidservant was guarding the door just now, she saw two young elder brothers playing marbles. The eldest elder brother played better than the second elder brother. Then, after the second elder brother lost, he took the initiative to beat the elder brother. Elder brother's head, the eldest brother did not fight back, nor did he cry, but the second elder brother burst into tears after the beating." The maid said truthfully.

Originally, she wanted to say it a long time ago, but later she saw Concubine De and Si Fujin had a conflict.

As a servant of the Yonghe Palace, she naturally wants to protect the Lord and think of Concubine De.

Unable to tell the truth, she slapped Concubine De in the face.

But just now, Elder Fourteen forced her to question her.

Originally, she didn't intend to tell the truth, but this man often walked around the Yonghe Palace, and after asking a few questions, he found out that she was lying.

He forced her to tell the truth, or she would die.

In order to save her life, she had to tell the truth.

Li Shi saw that the situation was reversed immediately, she pointed at the maid and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, did Fujin secretly give you money, you have been bribed!"

"Little sister-in-law, I brought this maid in here, and it has nothing to do with sister-in-law Si. If you think the maid's words are false, feel free to target me." Fourteenth elder brother is responsible for everything.

Here, the main room is directly called sister-in-law, and the side room is the younger sister-in-law.

Because the side Fujin was also married to the Royal Jade Butterfly, she was a polygamist and multiple concubines, but she was not a regular wife.

How dare Mrs. Li contradict Fourteenth Elder Brother.

In terms of identity, she is quite short.

What's more, this person is the favorite of the concubine Defei.

I heard that Lord Long Live loves Elder Fourteen very much recently.

So, she had no choice but to lower her head, and said: "I didn't know, I misunderstood, since the fourteenth elder brother said so, I believe it."

At this moment, even Aunt Cui, who had been standing beside Concubine De.

He also opened his mouth and said: "Master, to tell you the truth, just now, the slave's eyes have been watching the safety of the two elder brothers, and after seeing the second elder brother beat the eldest elder brother, he began to cry first."

She also stood in the position of Concubine De, and did not dare to speak out.

But now, it seems not to say no.

Hearing this, Concubine De frowned.

Majesticly said: "It's ridiculous, you know the truth, but you don't tell me, do you know that by doing so, you almost made me wrong and hurt big brother."

"Yes, I know my mistake." Aunt Cui and the maids knelt down together.

"I think you are the first offender, and you will be fined one month's salary." Concubine De cast a displeased look at Aunt Cui.

Immediately, he swept towards the second elder brother who was in Li's arms, "Second elder brother, as a younger brother, it's fine if you don't respect your elder brother, and you beat your elder brother with your hands. ..”

"Wow..." Before Concubine De could finish her words, Hong Tan hid in Li Shi's arms and began to cry.

This time, I was really crying, and the tears were falling down.

It looked like she was frightened and cried by Concubine De.

Concubine De saw the second elder brother crying, so it was not good to say more about the child.

He had no choice but to vent his anger on Mrs. Li.

"Mr. Li, it's really not that I want to talk about you. Look at Hongyu under your knees, and then look at Hongyi under Ulanara's knees. He is so sensible and stable. He doesn't cry or make trouble when he is beaten. This is the right way to do it." Brother's example." Concubine De turned to look at Hong Yi, and showed a loving smile like an old grandmother.

Mrs. Li pursed her lips, not wanting to take the blame.

"But the second elder brother has been raised in the front yard of the fourth master since he was born. Even if I want to teach him, I can't teach him."

The meaning in these words is obvious: I don't take the blame for this, Hongyu was not raised by me.

It has to be said that Li Shi's words made Concubine De very unhappy.

It was rare for her to say something nice for fourth master.

"According to what you mean, it's because the fourth brother didn't take care of the second elder brother." Concubine De asked casually.

Mrs. Li finally realized that she had said something wrong, she quickly shook her head, and replied: "I don't mean that, Fourth Master is busy with business all day long, if you want to blame it, you can blame it on Nanny Xie, she didn't teach Hongyu well. , if I teach it myself, it will definitely not be like this."

The meaning in her words became more obvious: I still don't take the blame.

But Hongqin is a timid person.

He was afraid of being scolded by Fourth Master and Concubine De.

Now I see Concubine De has shifted her target to Li Shi.

He wanted his mother, Li Shi, to take the blame for him.

So, he sobbed: "It was Er Niang who taught me, she said don't wait for others to cry after beating someone, otherwise you will...be scolded..."

At this point, he was crying so hard that he couldn't breathe.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly wiped Hong's nose with a handkerchief.

In fact, he just wanted to shut Honglin's mouth.

"Let him talk." Concubine De said in a deep voice.

Li Shi had no choice but to put away the handkerchief awkwardly, and let Hong Tan continue talking.

"Er Niang also said...you have to cry before others if you hit them...that way you won't be beaten and punished, and you have to let others be punished..."

"Mr. Li, the second elder brother said it himself, what else do you have to argue?" Concubine De questioned.

Mrs. Li lowered her head in a panic, and immediately knelt down on the ground.

"Emiang, I know my mistake, I will never dare to do it again next time."

Concubine De waved her hand and walked towards the door of the side hall.

"It's useless for you to tell me these things. You have to talk to the fourth child, Wulanara, and the elder brother. Besides, there is no one like you who teaches children like this. The older ones cry here in this palace. Ah, what a mess, it's just bad luck."

It seems that her old man finally doesn't plan to take this muddy water.

After Concubine De left, Li Shi hugged Fourth Master's leg and cried, "Fourth Master, I'm all for the sake of Second Elder Brother."

Su Peisheng on the side couldn't look away, so he winked and asked the maid to go up and pull Li Shi.

This is obviously harming the second elder brother, so it's not for others' good!

"Master, I really feel chilled because the second elder brother has a mother like you." The fourth master raised his foot, and pulled the black boots from Li Shi's arms.

Then, he stood with his hands behind his back and said with his back to Li: "From today onwards, the number of times you visit the second elder brother in the front yard will be reduced from three times a month to once a month. If you commit the crime again, don't even think about it again." Visit the second elder brother."

Hearing this, Mrs. Li pleaded in fear and trepidation: "Fourth Master, you can't treat me like this, Hongjin is my darling..."

But fourth master just glanced at Li shi lightly and didn't respond.
