Chapter 653: The Destitute Princess of the Western Factory Supervisor (37)
Rong Xi didn't have this idea. She looked at Shen Ze'an and couldn't see any respect for life in his eyes.
"I don't want to." Rong Xi said to Bao Huan, "Bring them in."
The Jiang couple thought they would not be able to see the Governor and his wife today, and were about to leave when they heard the housekeeper tell them to come in.
Although I was prepared, I was still very nervous the moment I stepped through the door. This was the residence of the Governor of the Western Factory, and so many people had gone in vertically and come out horizontally here.
The two were brought to the main hall. Looking at the two people sitting at the top, Lord Jiang quickly took Jiang Shiyue to kneel down.
"Sir Governor, I came here to bring this rebellious girl to apologize. I was not good at teaching my daughter and offended Madam. Please forgive me, Governor."
Jiang Shiyue was almost driven crazy by them during this period. He would bring her to apologize every morning and wait outside for an hour every day.
Now seeing her father begging them so humbly, she felt very upset, so the look in her eyes when she looked at Rong Xi became even more vicious.
But she didn't dare say it out loud, so she could only endure it silently, thinking of finding an opportunity to take revenge on them later.
Shen Ze'an had a reputation in the court for being arrogant and domineering, killing innocent people indiscriminately. He only restrained himself in front of Rong Xi. Now, facing the general's father, he naturally acted superior again.
"Sir General, I don't know how my wife offended Miss General. She bullies me every time she sees me. Doesn't she take me seriously?"
The father was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Please forgive me, Lord Governor. I was spoiled by you and became a little arrogant, but I would never dare to be disrespectful to you, Madam. Please understand my mistake, Lord Governor."
Rong Xi saw that he was really scared, and sweat broke out on her forehead. It was hard to imagine how caring parents are. She was actually a little envious of Jiang Shiyue.
Rong Xi still didn't say anything, just looked at Jiang Shiyue indifferently, intending to let her speak for herself. In her opinion, Jiang Shiyue had no intention of repenting.
The mother next to her pushed her daughter, signaling her to express her opinion quickly.
Jiang Shiyue squeezed out a few tears and looked at Shen Ze'an aggrievedly. He was a eunuch, but he was still a man in his heart. Any man would not resist a woman like this. This was what she learned from her concubine sister.
"Lord Governor, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have misunderstood you. Everything is my fault. I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I just ask you not to get so angry that you hurt yourself."
Jiang's father and mother were obviously satisfied with their daughter's words. They also felt that their daughter had become a different person today and had learned to be submissive.
Only Shen Ze'an hated the way this woman looked at him. If it wasn't the wrong timing, he would really dig out her eyes.
When Jiang Shiyue asked for leave, he looked at Shen Ze'an's face carefully, but this was different from what he expected. He shouldn't forgive her with pity at this time. Why did he look more and more angry the more he looked at her?
"Miss Jiang, do you know that there is a kind of drum called a human skin drum? It is a very special drum! The material it is made of is very special. It is taken from the smoothest skin on the back of a person, and it is made by peeling off a whole piece of skin."
The three members of the Jiang family were horrified when they heard this. The young Jiang Shiyue had never heard of such horrible things before. She was so scared that she fell to her knees on the spot, her body still shaking slightly.
"If Miss Jiang dares to look directly at me again, I won't mind letting her experience it."
"Your Highness, your Highness dares not, your Highness dares not."
When the father heard this, he did not dare to refute and speak for his daughter. Shen Ze'an would really do that.
I still remember that the imperial court caught a spy that year. No matter whether it was the Dali Temple or other places, they tried all kinds of methods but to no avail. Later, he was handed over to the Western Factory, and Shen Ze'an interrogated him personally. I heard that the methods were extremely cruel, and he used all means to scrape bones and cut flesh.
Finally, the man couldn't bear it anymore and confessed. The emperor was afraid that he wouldn't believe him, so he spared his life and made him confess in person. After repeatedly confirming that there was no problem, the man died.
He only took a quick glance at the injuries on the man's body, and he still remembers them vividly.
Thinking of this, he began to sweat more and more, and the sweat on his face dripped onto the ground.
"Please spare my life, Governor. These are just some small gifts from me. I hope you will accept them."
The people behind carried in a big box, which contained gold and shops.
Shen Ze'an originally wanted to scare them, but now he just wanted to see if Rong Xi had calmed down. Rong Xi didn't want to waste any more words here, so he casually nodded and asked them to keep all the things, otherwise they would be wasted.
"Miss Jiang, please be careful with your words and actions in the future. Otherwise, the price of offending others will probably be that Master Jiang will not be able to come again."
"Yes, yes, thank you, Princess. I will definitely discipline this rebellious girl."
.
After dinner, Rong Xi personally watched over the boiling of medicine in the kitchen. The medicinal materials involved were precious and rare, and the temperature was difficult to control. She was worried about leaving it to others, so she just watched it here.
When Shen Ze'an came back from the study, he didn't see Rong Xiren. After asking, he found out that Rong Xiren was making medicine for her.
He had never been to the kitchen before, but today he walked in for the first time ever, scaring the servants so much that they dared not go out, for fear of offending their master and losing their lives.
When Shen Ze'an arrived, he saw Rong Xi and Bao Huan sitting there. They were holding a few stones in their hands, and their hands were covered in dust. It sounded like they were having a stone throwing competition.
Seeing her smile happily, I feel that this is what she should look like at her age.
But as soon as he stepped in, the laughter of both of them stopped. Rong Xi returned to his original cold look, and Baohuan also stood there stiffly.
He suddenly felt that he shouldn't be here.
But, it has come.
"Just let the servants do these things, why are you still watching here in person?"
"No, that won't work. Your medicine is very valuable. If someone adds one more ingredient, you will also have to report to the hell."
Shen Zean...
"Then I will accompany you."
"No, it's ready. Just come and drink it. I don't have to bring it to you."
Rong Xi said that this bowl of medicine was as good as gold, and that was not a lie. The various medicinal materials in it were perfectly matched, and one or two ounces of gold was too little for him.
Shen Ze'an gulped down the medicine, and as soon as the medicine went down his body, he felt warm in his lower abdomen.
Shen Ze'an had never seen the next operation before. Rong Xi asked him to take off his shirt and run and jump in the yard for an hour.
“Do you have to run and jump?”
"You need to move, and it's best to sweat."
"That's it..."
Shen Ze'an asked someone to bring a sword, took off his shirt and started practicing swordplay. He found it difficult to just run and jump.
At the end of the practice, he still felt unsatisfied, so he called Lu Feng and Lu Zhou to practice with him.
Rong Xi had a chair moved to the yard. He watched Shen Ze'an practicing sword and swallowed deeply. He didn't realize that this guy was so talented.
