Chapter 18 Like Mr. Shoufu
Wei Yunzhu was sick, and was frightened into sickness.

Anyone who looked up and saw two corpses with their mouths cut off dangling from the beams of the house would be frightened to death.

But for three days in a row, all kinds of ginseng and snow lotus went in, but Pei Ji was nowhere to be seen.

The sun was fine today, and Wei Yunzhu seemed to be a little more energetic. She was wrapped in an extremely thick fox fur cloak, and half leaned against the imperial concubine in the pavilion to bask in the sun.

In the corridor, there are a few little maids who are whispering.

"Have you heard? The King of Yue was furious. It is said that the relationship with Mr. Shoufu suddenly became tense."

"Yeah, I heard that there was a quarrel between the two military camps yesterday, and they almost met each other in battle. Chang'an City is really not at peace now."

"It's no wonder Mr. Shoufu hasn't come back these few days. I'm afraid he's in a state of distress."

……

Wei Yunzhu guessed that Pei Ji must be in trouble. After all, the two people who were hanged to death yesterday had a close relationship with the King of Yue.

She flipped through the pages of the book, losing interest, and saw Nian Shuang walking in with a bow.

She presented an exquisite invitation card: "Girl, the Fengfu sent an invitation card this morning."

Wei Yunzhu took it lazily, and looked at a line of beautiful characters inside: Sister, meet at Huachao Festival.

Seeing that the signature was Feng Wei, Wei Yunzhu was actually a little startled, because no matter what she said, she should have invited Pei Ji, why would she invite herself as a concubine?

She was really too lazy to make excuses, and was about to lose the invitation.

But suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the sound of piles being bumped.

Rong Qiao ran over in a hurry: "Girl, something happened outside!"

A lot of wives and ladies gathered outside the gate of Pei's outer house.

They looked at the solid black dog's blood splashed on the door of the mansion with arrogant expressions, and the meaning of crusade was obvious.

Today, the aristocratic family headed by the Gu family and the Pei party are in the same situation in the court.

A few days ago, because of the debt owed by the treasury, the aristocratic family was hit hard, and they hated Pei Ji so much.

In the court hall this morning, the King of Yue faction was on the verge of falling out with the Pei party, which was in line with the wishes of the aristocratic family.

Under Mrs. Gu's reminder, everyone's eyes naturally fell on this outer house.

Pei Ji has always been mercenary and has never done business at a loss, but this time he was so confused that he offended the King of Yue for the sake of a small concubine, it was really unimaginable.

They were naturally curious as to who this woman in the house was, and the rock-hearted Shoufu-sama also stumbled.

Thanks to Mrs. Gu's efforts to fuel the flames, today everyone is united in a common hatred, and blamed Wei Yunzhu for all their old and new anger.

After all, she made a fool of herself, and it was Pei Ji who slandered her.

Hearing Rongqiao talk about the movement outside, Wei Yunzhu seemed very calm.

Even Nian Shuang was a little surprised. Is this really the soft-tempered, cries-loving, coquettish, indifferent little princess?

In fact, Wei Yunzhu already knew what the ladies and ladies in Yong'an Lane were thinking, and it was impossible for those harsh words to fail to reach her ears.

In the past, she was a princess, and everyone she met was friendly. Now, she is just an orphan, so she has to think about how to win a little life for her relatives under the fangs of that brutal lone wolf.

The violence outside the door intensified, and there was even the sound of knocking on the door.

"Nian Shuang, follow me out to have a look." Wei Yunzhu got up and was about to walk forward.

"Girl, it's just some unreasonable gossip, we don't care, those people think it's boring, and they will leave after a while."

Nian Shuang was really reluctant to ask the little princess to bear those rumors, and she was sad to hear those words, let alone the princess.

"Since it's all gossip, there's nothing to be afraid of." Wei Yunzhu smiled reassuringly at Nian Shuang, and picked up the veil.

Outside the gate, apart from the wives and young ladies, their maids and servants stood in a dense crowd, all vying to look out, what kind of woman she is, so that Mr. Shoufu would not hesitate to get off the horse and want to be spoiled in the golden house.

The moment Wei Yunzhu stepped out, everyone was silent.

Three parts are peaches and plums, seven parts are hibiscus, coquettish and innocent, naturally seductive, even if you hide your face with a veil, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of beauty she is so heart-swaying.

"You can't be polite when you see someone, it really is from Goulan Washeli..."

"Sure enough, at first glance, he is a vixen and a thin horse, but he dares to live in Yong'an Lane openly, what a joke!" These words were a bit sour.

Immediately afterwards, there were sounds of disdain from all around, as if Wei Yunzhu had committed some great crime.

"Master Shoufu's concubine is nothing more than this. I don't know what kind of indecent tricks he used to call the unmarried gentleman to spoil her as a concubine. It's simply against etiquette and corrupt style."

The woman who spoke was Mrs. Gu's daughter, Gu Xiaolan.

Mrs. Gu glanced around unobtrusively, the fire was almost over, and it was time for her to play.

She suddenly turned cold, and taught harshly: "Xiao Lan, what are you talking about? How can you say such things for no reason!"

Gu Xiaolan has always been pampered and lawless: "Isn't it?"

Mrs. Gu shook her head helplessly, and then spoke earnestly to everyone, as if she had the heart of a bodhisattva: "Why do women make things difficult for women, since there is only a little girl around, how can you speak so sarcasticly?"

She looked at Wei Yunzhu's face, kindly and kindly: "Girl, you go in quickly, and I will explain to everyone."

She looked like a savior, as if these people were not gathered by her.

The noble ladies who were instigated by her were all surprised, which song is this sung?Standing up and down again is too responsive.

But no one dared to say anything clearly, after all, the Gu family was not something ordinary people could afford.

"Everyone, please go back, I only say this once."

"As for those rumors, they should be limited to the wise."

Wei Yunzhu, who had been looking at these people coldly, said, after all, they don't treat the lower class people as human beings.

Seeing the soft and weak woman in front of him, the words she spoke were inexplicably majestic, everyone was subconsciously taken aback for a moment.

But at the next moment, a maid who accompanied his wife couldn't help but click her tongue: "A second class is worthy of talking to our master like that!"

Indeed, she does not deserve it.

Thinking of this, a lady with a very sarcastic tone said: "It's just a thin horse, I feel dirty just by looking at it."

"Sure enough, I was born with mud legs, but I can't change my poor habits before, and I like those same humble things."

Pei Ji's most secretive pain point is his humble background, causing these aristocratic families who call themselves superior to others to look down on him from the bottom of their hearts.

Wei Yunzhu was inexplicably annoyed, it had nothing to do with love, but she felt that a person's background should not be related to the pillar of shame.

Her eyes suddenly turned cold, and her voice was sharp: "During the 300 years of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how many humerus ministers and generals of the Fuguo were all from common people. In Madam's opinion, this aristocratic family should be superior to others?"

"Let me ask, which one is more noble, a person who does not care about people in his position, but only cares about pleasure, or a person who is born with a criminal background, who is dedicated to the prosperity of the country, and who cares about hard work?"

At least, Pei Ji is not the lackey of King Yue, Wei Yunzhu is sure of this.

The words were so loud that the people present were speechless and indeed unable to answer. They had this deep-rooted class concept in their bones, and they were already terminally ill.

Gu Xiaolan sneered, Mr. Shoufu was most jealous of others mentioning his background, and this woman actually told the crimes of his background in front of the rich and powerful, she really didn't want to live.

Master Shoufu will definitely kill her if he finds out.

The lady had nothing to say, she could only cough a few times in embarrassment, and then she became angry: "Bold maidservant! Do you know who I am? What are you talking about to me again!"

Wei Yunzhu smiled coldly and ignored it.

"Today, Mr. Shoufu is not here. I will not make any remarks when you wait for these actions, but if I make progress, I will definitely not be a bully."

"It's really boring. Since this is the case, it's better to go to Wangchunlou to listen to the music. That's it, let's go."

No one was aware of Lord Shoufu's iron fist, offending the poisonous snake, but those who didn't end well, they all left with excuses.

Mrs. Gu smiled warmly: "I just said that girl, you have an extraordinary bearing, why did you come out of that Goulan wash house?"

"Don't listen to them."

Wei Yunzhu chuckled lightly, but said nothing.

In fact, Mrs. Gu has long been scornful in her heart, but the outside room, what a big shelf!
Today, she single-handedly helped these dignitaries come to make trouble, in fact, to save Wei Yunzhu from the siege, and to make this fool grateful to herself.

The reason is that the King of Yue faction is writing articles in the court to crusade against the Pei Party, and the Pei Party is also fighting back.

This is a good time for the fisherman to profit, but Mrs. Gu has always been vigilant. She knows that if the Yue Wang Party is not eliminated, the aristocratic family will never have a chance to breathe, so it is the best policy to show friendship with the Pei Party.

Get rid of the Yuewang party, and then hit the heavily injured Pei party, the Gu family's wishful thinking was well planned.

"Since everyone is gone, please come back, Madam."

Wei Yunzhu softly issued the order to evict the guest.

"Girl, in fact, I came here today without any malice, but to apologize to you. I was confused before."

"Also, I would like to invite the girl Hua Chaojie to come to the mansion for a gathering."

It's the Huachao Festival again, it seems that it will be extremely lively that day.

Wei Yunzhu said softly: "Thank you Madam for your kindness, but I have to consult Lord Shoufu for instructions on this matter, and I hope Madam will understand."

Seeing her low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, Mrs. Gu was very satisfied, she was a little smug: "That's natural."

After all, in her heart, Wei Yunzhu is just a dog who can wag his tail at her for some favors.

When Nian Shuang returned home with her princess by the arm, she suddenly felt that she looked like a person just now.

"Girl, when you spoke just now, you looked very much like Lord Shoufu."

Wei Yunzhu was taken aback when she heard this. In fact, she also felt the same way. She was no longer the noble princess of Yun'an, but Wei Yunzhu, an orphan, dared to say those words that challenged the ranks of the powerful.

Could it be that after staying with that person for a long time, he also became a little crazy?
