After the Hou family's mistress was reborn, the entire Hou family suffered disaster

Chapter 88 The Decree
At this time, the main hall in the front yard of the Hou Mansion was in chaos.

Several chamberlains grabbed Anyuanhou and tried to push him down on the execution bench, but Anyuanhou struggled desperately and knocked over the tables and chairs beside him. Tea cups and porcelain were even thrown to the floor, leaving the hall in a mess.

The old lady stood aside tightly holding Liu's mother's hand, looking at everything in front of her, her face was extremely pale.

Just now, this group of servants suddenly came over with an imperial edict. The edict said that Marquis Anyuan had lost the face of the court and would be punished for sixty years. At the same time, five of the many properties he had previously rewarded would be taken back.

A fluttering imperial edict almost broke half of the backbone of the Anyuan Hou Mansion.

It is already very difficult for the old lady to be able to stand here well now.

On the other hand, the leader of the chamberlain on the side looked at the age of sixteen or seventeen, but he had a temperament that was completely different from his age.

He put his hands into his sleeves, and there was no hint of impatience on his face. He even smiled: "Master Marquis, please stop struggling. This is His Majesty's order. Do you dare to disobey it?"

When the word "Your Majesty" was mentioned, Marquis Anyuan gritted his teeth and said: "Sir, I certainly don't dare to disobey the Holy Order, but, but I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding! I am keeping my peace at home and have done nothing, so how can I lose it? The face of the court? Since I have not lost the face of the court, why did your majesty beat me for no reason!"

When he was in Hualou, Anyuanhou's news was quite good, but now, he hasn't been out of the backyard for a long time, and he only focuses on his aunts, so he doesn't know what happened yesterday. Know.

"Bold!" the chamberlain shouted sharply, and the shrill voice made everyone present immediately tremble, "How can your Majesty act without reason! Lord Marquis, be careful what you say!"

The old lady on the side finally came back to her senses. She first glanced at her panting son with distress, and then looked at the chamberlain flatteringly: "Yes, yes, it is what you said! It was my son who made a gaffe! But your Excellency, , do you think there is room for change in this matter? My son may not be able to bear these sixty sticks!"

The servant calmed down the stern expression on his face and returned to a smiling look: "Old madam, the imperial edict has been issued! Do you want some room? Why don't you follow the slave into the palace, and the slave will accompany you to talk to His Majesty?"

Seeing the smile on the waiter's face, the old lady suddenly shuddered for no reason, and she didn't dare to say anything about whether there was no room for room or not.

The chamberlain was also very impatient now.

This was the first time he had seen anyone dare to bargain with His Majesty's imperial edict.

Especially the Marquis Anyuan, despite the imperial edict, he still dared to struggle.

If this matter is taken seriously, it would be disrespectful to His Majesty!
This Marquis Anyuan is really becoming more and more unseemly!

Thinking of this, the smile on the servant's face also faded a bit: "Master Marquis, just get down on your knees. Your Majesty is merciful. No, I specifically told my slave that these sixty sticks can be struck slowly. The people under my command are also very measured, so how can I really hurt you?"

Seeing that Marquis Anyuan was still holding his neck and refusing to submit, the smile on the servant's face disappeared instantly: "Master Marquis, if you don't obey, I will call the imperial army in. Those people are not gentle at all." It’s nothing serious, if it really hurts you and ruins the rest of your life, the slaves and brothers of the Forbidden Army will act in accordance with the imperial decree, so they have nothing to fear.”

Hearing this, Marquis Anyuan's legs went weak. Seeing this, several chamberlains used their strength to directly lift the man to the execution bench.

Immediately afterwards, the chamberlains holding torture sticks on both sides dropped their sticks one after another.

When they came, someone from above had specially ordered that Anyuanhou must suffer a lot. Therefore, the chamberlain who carried out the execution showed his housekeeping skills in a serious manner. He saw blood in a few strokes and beat him. Marquis Deanyuan howled repeatedly, and after twelve strokes of the stick, the man fainted.

As for the old lady, she rolled her eyes and fell unconscious as early as when she saw blood.

So much so that after the twelve sticks were finished, not even a single person went to ask for a doctor for Marquis Anyuan.

After finishing the work, the leader of the chamberlain saw a smile again on his face. He looked at Mother Liu who was kneeling beside the old lady in panic and said: "After the old lady wakes up, please give me a message, saying that I will be beaten ten times today." Two sticks, we’ll come back tomorrow.”

Mother Liu opened her mouth to speak, but the leader of the chamberlain felt that she had been wasted here long enough, so he couldn't bear to look at her anymore, and asked someone to go to the backyard to ask the nanny to come out, while he left directly with the rest of the people.

-

Shaoguangyuan.

After hearing the report from the maid that a chamberlain was here to invite, the nanny sent by the queen stood up with a smile and said: "It seems that the previous matters have been completed. I will leave now. Madam, take good care of yourself. If you are wronged, Even if you tell your wife, she will definitely stand up for you." Jiang Fuyue nodded weakly, then struggled to get up to see her off: "...I'll see you off, mama."

"No way!" Mammy stepped forward quickly, gently pressed Jiang Fuyue's arm, and said in a gentle tone, "Madam is a noble person, and she is sick. It's not like I don't know the way, so I can just walk on my own. , Madam, have a good rest!"

"Thank you so much for your consideration, mama," Jiang Fuyue said movedly, "It's just a rare visit for mama. It's really hard. Jingzhe, please send mama off for me."

Jingzhe quickly bowed his knees and responded.

Mammy didn't refuse anymore, bowed again, turned and left.

When passing by the front hall, Jingzhe saw the dying appearance of Marquis Anyuan. He was startled and quickly lowered his head.

Grandma looked as usual, as if she hadn't seen it.

Jingzhe sent the two of them to the gate, watched them join the team of servants, and left without looking back.

Jingzhe waited until they were far away before turning around and heading back home.

On his way back, he passed by the front hall and Jingzhe took a closer look.

I saw Marquis Anyuan lying on the torture bench, with his legs spread apart and hanging on both sides of the torture bench. The robe on his body had been turned into a ball with blood. There was a foul smell coming from nowhere, but the old lady was fine. My son, but for some reason, he also fainted.

Jingzhe pursed his lips, called the waiters in the front hall, and told them to find the doctor quickly, and then returned to Shaoguang Courtyard.

At this time, Jiang Fuyue got out of bed and stood by the window, looking at the gift list in her hand.

Although the queen had someone send her something last time, in terms of value, it was far less valuable than what she had now.

But...this is really too abnormal.

According to her current status in the Anyuan Marquis Mansion and her status, she should not be treated so favorably.

Gu Yu only knew that Jiang Fuyue was thinking about something, but he couldn't guess what she was thinking, so he simply didn't disturb her and sat quietly aside.

At this time, Jingzhe came back and talked about what happened in the front hall.

"That mama was indeed right. I went to see the maid. The Marquis was beaten half to death, and the old lady also passed out. Now the whole front yard is in a mess, and there is no one who can even call the doctor. It was only after the slave gave the order that the young man turned around to invite me!"

Hearing this, the expression on Jiang Fuyue's face became even weirder.

It was just a few rumors, so how could there be such a big move in the palace?

After thinking about it, maybe it was because someone brought it to the court during the discussion.

Jiang Fuyue sighed.

It was a pity that Marquis Anyuan was not in court, so she had no way of knowing what happened in court this morning.

The door of Shaoguangyuan was closed, and the doctor invited by the boy came over to do some busy work. It was not until almost noon that the old lady woke up slowly.

The old lady first looked at Anyuan Hou and cried for a while. After settling Anyuan Hou, she quickly got up and went to check the account books of the Hou Mansion. As a result, she almost fainted again during this check.
