Chapter 459: Carrying the corpse on a wooden board and pretending to be faint
The young eunuchs in the palace had already heard about the theft in Marquis Qinxing's mansion.
And that’s not all…
The Qinxing Marquis's mansion was visited by mysterious thieves and emptied overnight;
Marquis Qinxing favored his concubine over his wife. As soon as his first wife passed away, he indulged his so-called wife who was promoted from a concubine to a high position, and his own mother...
Oh...of course, this also includes Qinxing Hou himself, who shamelessly embezzled the entire dowry of his late wife;
Marquis Qinxing also favored concubines over legitimate wives, and allowed his two illegitimate children born to his mistress to bully and mistreat the only child of the late wife - the legitimate eldest daughter!
All of this became known to everyone following the theft of Marquis Qinxing's mansion!
Almost everyone in the capital was talking about the Marquis of Qinxing's mansion;
The eunuchs and maids in the palace have been keen on discussing this topic recently.
The results of the discussion were surprisingly consistent -
The theft in Marquis Qinxing’s mansion was retribution!
People all sympathized with the poor motherless Leng Rongyue;
Fortunately, the real situation of the poor little kid who suffered from bullying in the Marquis' Mansion was finally seen by the two aunts who suddenly came to visit their niece!
It is said that the second wife of the Duke of Anguo was so angry that she slapped the vicious woman who came to power through marriage into a pig's head!
Afterwards, the suffering daughter Leng Rongyue was taken in by her maternal family, the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, to be raised in pampered condition;
I also heard that her grandmother and aunt went to a farm in the suburbs of Beijing to relax together!
so good!
Miss Leng’s days of suffering are finally over!
However, the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion was in a terrible situation!
It was the Qinxing Marquis Mansion that deserved the double whammy.
I heard that the wicked mother of Marquis Qinxing fell into a nightmare for unknown reasons and even became incontinent.
That second wife Yin was beaten into a pig's head, which was shameful;
Those two illegitimate children who took pleasure in bullying Leng Rongyue would fall and get hurt if they walked on flat ground;
Even more shocking was that Marquis Qinxing and his second wife indulged themselves in excessive sexual activities, which injured their bodies and made them unable to get up. In the chaos, they even missed the morning court...
I missed it twice in a row!
For this, Marquis Qinxing was punished by the Emperor... with a caning and a salary deduction;
It is also out of the emperor's mercy that, considering that Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian is still ill, he has temporarily recorded the punishment and will receive it after he recovers!
These are not all, the most exciting thing is coming...
The Marquis's mansion was unexpectedly robbed by thieves at night!
The wealthy mansion was suddenly reduced to nothingness!
Today, only empty houses and courtyard walls remain in the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion!
Marquis Qinxing Leng Xian and his step-wife, mother, illegitimate sons and daughters lived in the empty marquisate, suffering from lack of food and clothing and being extremely miserable!
……
In recent days, the people in the capital have been talking about this matter the most;
Naturally, people in the palace had heard a lot about it.
When I saw Leng Xian today, I thought about the Duke of Qinxing in the past...
Even though the former Qinxing Hou Leng Xian was just an embroidered pillow...
But that... that is at least an embroidered pillow;
The Marquis Qinxing in front of me... is clearly just a rag bag!
There is no longer the spirit of the past.
Plus this poor and weird outfit...
It really feels like a rich man turning into a refugee in an instant!
Several young eunuchs looked at Leng Xian and could only curl their lips and shake their heads.
The wooden board had been brought over, and several young eunuchs reached out their hands together, lifted up Leng Xian, Marquis of Qinxing, and laid him flat on the board.
"Go to the Imperial Hospital and get a doctor.
We will carry Lord Leng to the Golden Palace."
One of the older eunuchs gave instructions to a young eunuch who was not very old and looked very smart.
"Yes!" After receiving the order, the eunuch turned around and ran away.
A young eunuch nearby was puzzled, "Why don't we just carry Lord Leng to the Imperial Hospital? Why do we have to go in two places..."
The man was interrupted by a slap before he could finish his words.
“What do you know!
Didn’t you hear what Xiao Dongzi said just now?
Lord Leng entered the palace today on the emperor's orders!
In other words, no matter what the matter is, the emperor must meet Marquis Qinxing today.
Don’t you see what time it is now?
The Emperor was about to ascend the throne;
By then, if the emperor cannot see Lord Leng, who he wants to see, and finds out that we took the initiative to carry Lord Leng to the Imperial Hospital...
If the emperor gets angry and blames us, who among us can bear the responsibility?
Therefore, we can only carry Lord Leng to the Golden Palace;
The imperial physician who was called in also went there.
Lord Leng fainted in the palace and we saw him. We did not stand by and watch, ignoring the incident.
If the emperor summons Lord Leng, at worst... we can just carry Lord Leng to the palace;
Anyway... we are not wrong, right?"
After hearing this, several young eunuchs nodded and said, "You are really thoughtful!
Then let's carry Lord Leng over now!"
Several people bent down and lifted the wooden board.
Because the wooden board was a bit narrow, the men had only taken a few steps when, with the exception of Leng Xian's head and back still on the board, his arms and legs were all hanging down on both sides of the board.
The arms were fine, but the problem was that Leng Xian's legs were quite long. They were dragging on the ground with their legs apart, and the shoes that didn't fit him well to begin with were all falling off.
The young eunuch had no choice but to stop, move Leng Xian's legs back to the wooden board, and then wrap Leng Xian's long legs with the bottom of his robe before continuing to move forward.
As for Leng Xian’s two arms…just let them hang down!
The way they look... is a bit like they are carrying a corpse!
While the eunuchs were busy, Leng Xian had already woken up.
However, rather than embarrassing myself when I’m awake, I might as well pretend to be unconscious!
