Chapter 133 Relying on favor and pride

   Obviously, in this palace, no one has ever been so \'presumptuous\' to this old lady!

   She didn\'t know what to do, so she bowed to the princess with a stiff face and said, "Your Highness should reprimand Fang Jifan for his rudeness."

  This means that although I am an old mother in the palace, I am only a \'maidservant and house slave\' after all. Since I cannot restrain Fang Jifan, then please Your Highness the Princess restrain him.

  Princess couldn\'t help hesitating, she glanced at Fang Jifan cautiously, and then said with a smile: "But I\'m not sick now."

   "..." The old nanny seemed to have eaten a fly for a moment.

  The old nanny was annoyed, she stood up, said without saying anything more, "Then let this old slave leave."

   This clearly shows that he is going to file a complaint.

  Princess was startled and a little nervous!

  The queen mother is very strict with herself, if the old mother goes to add fuel and vinegar, it will be bad.

  Fang Jifan narrowed his eyes and stared at the old woman.

How could Fang Jifan not know about this kind of people? Nine out of ten old nuns in the palace are old fritters. Those who can stay in the palace without being dismissed are mostly confidantes of the nobles, so their status in the palace is detached , inevitably arrogant!

On the contrary, it is a little girl like the princess, regardless of her status. On the one hand, the duty of the old mother is to restrain the princess\'s behavior beyond the etiquette. Naturally, the way of the imperial court was grasped by these old nuns!

Such things were very common in the Ming Dynasty. Princess Taikang\'s situation was actually not bad. After all, she was the only princess in the dynasty and was favored by His Majesty and Queen Zhang. It\'s all common.

  Fang Jifan was cold in his heart, but he just watched coldly.

The princess called the old nanny anxiously: "Grandma Liu, wait a minute, my palace just reprimanded Fang Jifan, don\'t go to the mother\'s place to complain, Fang Jifan doesn\'t know the rules, if the mother knows, won\'t he be punished for nothing? Why should Nanny Liu take it to heart?"

   Originally, Nanny Liu was just putting on airs.

  No matter what, she also knows that she is just a slave, and she is not good at getting stuck with the young master. She knows Zhu Xiurong\'s temperament all too well!

But when she heard His Royal Highness say not to go to the Queen Mother to complain, she felt unreasonable at this time, sullenly, and said with an aggrieved look: "Your Highness, God is sorry, the old servant is always careful to serve His Highness, even if sometimes Reporting something to the empress is also for the benefit of His Highness. But in the eyes of His Highness, it has become a complaint. In the heart of this old slave, the word "complaint" is really heartbreaking. This old slave has been serving His Highness. A little bit of slack, but how can Her Royal Highness be so heartless that she treats this old slave as someone who breaks her mouth in front of her mother, this old slave... this old slave might as well be dead."

  She whimpered and complained like this, how could the princess bear it, and she was at a loss for what to do.

  Fang Jifan wanted to laugh in his heart, this trick is really playful, this nanny, the means of controlling the princess are really tricky, a little girl who has not been out of the cabinet, how can she be an opponent for a minute.

  Princess let out a sigh of relief, and seeing Liu mama crying so much, she hurriedly said, "It\'s my fault."

  Nurse Liu still refused to give up, saying: "Since Your Highness knows that he is wrong, he should reprimand Fang Jifan so that he will not be rude."

   "This..." The princess hesitated again, as if she refused.

  Fang Jifan is her savior, and in her opinion, Fang Jifan has done nothing wrong, at least she is very happy to talk to him.

  Seeing the princess hesitated, Nanny Liu repeated the old trick: "Okay, since Your Highness sees the old slave upset, the old slave has no choice but to report to the empress, and ask the empress to send the old slave out."

  She is making progress by retreating. On the surface, she hopes to be sent out, but isn\'t this a complaint?

  Princess panicked at this time, she didn\'t know anything, she was just afraid that things would get out of hand and Fang Jifan would be punished by his mother.

When Nanny Liu saw the mist in the princess\'s eyes, she knew that the princess was about to submit, she knew the princess well, but the princess still refused to speak out against Fang Jifan, so she stood up pretendingly and said, "The old slave is leaving. "

   She turned around.

  The princess wanted to speak and called her to stop.

  Unexpectedly, at this time, Fang Jifan said: "Wait a minute!"

  Nurse Liu stopped and gave Fang Jifan a cold look.

She is not afraid of Fang Jifan at all. Here, although she is an old slave with a humble status, this is the bedroom of Her Highness the Princess. You Fang Jifan is a man, and your status is sensitive. As long as you go to your mother and say something like that A few words, such a serious matter between men and women, is enough to cause outrage.

  Fang Jifan said coldly: "Mother Liu, the empress asked you to serve the princess, not to play tricks in front of the princess. I\'m sorry, but I\'m a straightforward person."

   When the word scheming came out, Mammy Liu\'s face turned pale.

   Even the princess saw that the two had an argument, and her eyes were red with fear.

  Although she has a noble status, she is the only daughter of Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang. She is well protected by her parents on weekdays. She has never experienced big winds and waves, so she knows nothing.

  Fang Jifan glanced at her with some pity, then straightened his face again and looked at Nanny Liu.

   Regarding this matter, Liu Mama hissed: "What kind of scheming, Mr. Fang, please be careful when you speak!"

"Really?" Fang Jifan stretched his waist and yawned: "I am a person who has no sense of propriety, but I want to warn you, if you dare to take half a step out of here, don\'t blame me for being rude. Oh, let me tell you again, my name is Fang Jifan!"

   Mammy Liu was stunned, and her expression suddenly changed.

   This is a threat, a naked threat.

She is not afraid of Fang Jifan. People in the palace will always only have their master in their eyes, and anyone outside the palace will not pay attention to it. She sneered and said: "Outside the palace, what a powerful person Mr. Fang is!" , I don’t know, but in this palace, Mr. Fang is nothing, so I want to leave.”

  She was too lazy to pay attention to Fang Jifan, and even gave Fang Jifan a look of disdain.

  The only thing in my heart is the endless contempt of Fang Jifan, what a guy who doesn\'t know what to do!

  She was determined to leave, and she had already made up her mind that she must go to the empress to add fuel and jealousy, so that Fang Jifan would suffer.

  But just as she was about to turn around, Fang Jifan had already stood up. Nanny Liu was stunned for a moment, her movements froze, and she sneered, "Young Master Fang, you are really rude to Your Highness the Princess..."

  She finally threw out her trump card, what are you Fang Jifan, as long as you kill this one today, ten heads are not enough for you.

   But she didn\'t finish her words, she thought Fang Jifan would give in, and even knelt down and cried for mercy.

   At this time, Fang Jifan\'s gaze became extremely terrifying.

  He narrowed his eyes, with a fierce light in his eyes, and looked around. The eunuchs around him seemed to be smiling, but none of them came forward to persuade them. They seemed to appreciate this scene.

  The princess was crying, she looked pitiful, she gritted her silver teeth, trying to muster up her courage, and scolded Nanny Liu, but when she thought of Nanny Liu saying something rude, she felt a chill in her heart.

  Fang Jifan became calm and relaxed. He and Nanny Liu were only a short distance away. Fang Jifan said indifferently: "You have been with your mother for a while, right? Your surname is Liu? I think you are very familiar with Zheng Qiu."

   Nanny Liu was taken aback for a moment, obviously... Fang Jifan\'s sudden mention of Zheng Qiu made her unpredictable.

  Fang Jifan, a person outside the palace, actually recognizes Zheng Qiu?

  Fang Jifan sneered softly and said: "Zheng Qiu has the audacity to steal the royal belongings from the palace and sell them. You should know about this matter, right? Not only did he steal, but he also gave you benefits. You still want to deny it?"

  The voice was so soft that only Nanny Liu could hear it.

  The expression on Madam Liu\'s face became brighter in an instant, and she looked at Fang Jifan as if she had seen a ghost.

Fang Jifan looked at Nanny Liu mockingly and said, "If you want to deny it, you can\'t deny it. As long as Zheng Qiu is caught, this slave doesn\'t need to be tortured. He will definitely confess. Can you run away? You took his things, Either it is hidden in your bedroom, or it has been sent to relatives outside the palace by someone, after a search, the truth will be revealed."

  Nurse Liu\'s old face was pulled down, You Qi was ferocious, her eyes were cold and cold, and she said with a blunt smile: "Young master, don\'t you think you\'re too talkative?"

  Although she has a terrifying and hideous appearance, it\'s just that her soft voice has completely betrayed her.

  Fang Jifan was convinced that Nanny Liu really took Zheng Qiu\'s stolen goods.

  The reason why he is so sure is that he once browsed an incident in the daily notes during the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty.

During this period, there were frequent thefts in the Kunning Palace. For this reason, Jin Yiwei conducted an investigation and finally found a **** of Zheng Qiu. Besides, there were quite a few female officials and eunuchs involved, there were more than a dozen people, otherwise Just relying on Zheng Qiu alone, it is impossible to be so rampant. He must have bribed the people around Queen Zhang. Only in this way can we be sure that nothing will go wrong.

  Actually, Fang Jifan couldn’t be sure whether Nanny Liu was one of the people who conspired with Zheng Qiu, but since Nanny Liu was Queen Zhang’s confidant, there was no reason why Zheng Qiu wouldn’t bribe her!

  So, Fang Jifan made a tentative statement. If Madam Liu yelled and argued with Fang Jifan, it would be fine. However, although her voice was sharp, her voice was weak, for fear of being heard by people in the distance, Fang Jifan already had a bottom line in his heart.

  You idiot, you\'ve been duped!

Fang Jifan put his hands behind his back, and said slowly: "Repudiation? Why do you deny it? There are so many treasures lost in the palace. As soon as I open my mouth, Jin Yiwei will enter the palace for investigation. If you want to come to Jin Yiwei\'s methods, Madam Liu is better than you." Let me make it clearer. You are just an old maid. I really think that no matter how much the empress trusts you, once you get involved in this matter, will the empress still protect you? Oh, yes, you seem to have forgotten that the empress is My aunt, take a look, does the beanie on my body look familiar?"
