Zhao Ling glanced at the Cui family's mother and daughter who were secretly proud of their actions. She knew that this matter must be connected to the two of them. She suppressed her anger, and said coldly. "Please, I implore mother to express it."
Cui gave a glance at the close-knit maid Sun, who accepted the command and said to Zhao Ling. "This maid greets the eldest lady. This cheap maid, Lu Zhu, is brave. She has committed fornication with a man, corrupting the rules of the government of our country. According to the rules, It should be punished with a rod!"
Fornication with a man? Zhao Ling's face changed when he heard the words, and he said sharply. "Nonsense, Luzhu is my personal maid, who has always been around, how can she has fornication with others? You have no proof, do you have evidence?"
"I have it." Grandma Sun threw out a baggage and said. "Just now this girl hurriedly ran into the old slave with a baggage, and the bag fell to the ground. The old slave saw that the baggage was full of men clothes. She asked her who they were for, but the girl didn't say anything. So the old slave suspected that the girl had an affair with the man, so he reported it to the old lady."
It was indeed men's clothing in the baggage, but Zhao Ling knew that this was the clothes she wore when disguised as a man. It was just because Dasheng women's words and deeds were more conservative. It was rare that women would pretend to be men and go out of their homes privately, let alone Zhao Jiang's house with a strict family tradition.
If Zhao's women pretended to be men and go out of their homes privately, it was discovered that according to the rules of the government, it was necessary to be responsible for reasons. Lu Zhu, the girl probably did not say anything to protect herself.
Zhao Ling thought of this, and looked at the unconscious Green Bamboo and the tearful old Mother Xu, feeling distressed. These two people did their best to protect themselves. It was just that she must not allow Lu Zhu to bear the charge of wrong accusations. How important was fame to a woman, not to mention that she was still a girl who had not been out of the cabinet.
She glanced at the clothes in her baggage, gritted her teeth, fell on her knees with a "boom", and said to Zhao Jiang, "Father, the daughter ordered Lu Zhu to buy these clothes. Lu Zhu is only acting on orders. If she is to be punished, just punish your daughter."
Zhao Ruo on the side concealed a smile and said contemptuously. "Why does the eldest sister buy men's clothes? Did you think about preparing it for King Xuan so early? It's a pity that King Xuan asked to postpone the wedding, eldest sister. Are you too anxious?"
After all, Cui's and the other aunts both showed mockery and looked at Zhao Ling with different expressions.
Zhao Ling lowered her eyebrows, ignored them, still knelt down, and said, "Father, your daughter bought these clothes for herself. Your daughter used it to pretend to be a man and went out of the house a few days ago. I thought it was new. I asked Luzhu to buy a few more sets. If the father doesn't believe it, the daughter can try it on on the spot to see if it's her size."
For the present plan, she could only try to draw the fire to her side. The Cui family's mother and daughter were targeting her, and Luzhu was only their primer to deal with her.
Zhao Jiang said with a sullen face. "You know that a woman who doesn't abide by the rules and goes out of the house without permission, what punishment should be imposed according to the rules of the house?"
"Daughter knows, please father to punish." Zhao Ling was already kneeling, and said lightly.
"Miss, don't." Lu Zhu woke up from the pain and heard Zhao Ling's words, and she said weakly.
Seeing Luzhu wake up, Zhao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, came to her, checked the injury on her back. Fortunately, it was a skin injury. She could recuperate for a few days. She grabbed Lu Zhu's hand and said to her. "Lu Zhu, you have suffered, go down with Mother Xu to rest." She also ordered Mother Xu to give her medicine and take good care of her.
Mother Xu kowtowed to Zhao Jiang and said, "Master, if you want to punish, you can punish this old slave. It is the old slave who did not look at the lady well, and the lady has trusted her. It is the old slave's fault!"
Mother Xu moved Xie Yun out because she thought that Zhao Jiang would punish Zhao Ling lightly for the sake of his dead wife and Xie's family in Suzhou.
Zhao Jiang felt soft, and wanted to follow the boat with a lighter punishment. Cui said lukewarmly on the side. "Master, Ling is a person who has a marriage contract, but she is so unruly. If the words reaches King Xuan, then, I'm afraid that he will have an excuse to divorce again, and where will the face of the Jiang Mansion be by that time."
Zhao Jiang was right when he thought about it. The Zhao Jiang Mansion was already going downhill. If something detracting from its reputation were reported, he would not be able to hold his head in the capital circle. This matter must be severely punished, so as to be effective. Therefore, it was ordered to be handled strictly in accordance with government regulations, and no one was allowed to intercede.
Zhao Ling suffered twenty sticks for life in the triumphant or compassionate gazes of Cui's mother and daughter and others, and finally could not hold it back and lost consciousness.
Fortunately, Lu Zhu's crime of fornication was cleared away.. Zhao Ling smiled inwardly in satisfaction before losing consciousness.
