Chapter 258: The Bird of the Forest

Looking back on the past, Su Yiqing really felt that what she said just now was a little light, and she should be scolded harshly.

She sat there depressed until the voice of the green vine came from outside, "Second Miss, Madame is here." ”

She sat up slightly straight, and then the green vine led Madame Meng in.

Madame Meng looked very tired, her eyes were slightly red, but her eyes still shone with tenacity, and her waist was straight, and some people were strong when they were strong.

"Green vine, make a pot of tea for Madame, and send two more snacks in." Su Yiqing lightly ordered, the green vine was ordered to go out, and the green vine also retreated outside with a very good look.

"Mother, sit down." Su Yiqing is also smooth when she arouses her mother now, but it is too smooth, which inevitably makes people feel a little fake.

After Mrs. Meng sat down, she sighed, "Fu'er, your sister is young and confused, I will make amends for her like you, don't blame her." ”

"I understand, Sister Yan doesn't have any bad intentions." Su Yiqing's words are sincere, compared to Su Yixiang, who was so crazy that she was inexplicably regarded as a thorn in her side and opposed her everywhere, Meng Yan is really too kind, but the family environment has changed suddenly, the little girl can't accept it for a while, and some tempers are normal.

"I asked Yan'er, she was instigated by someone before, and sent the green vine away to look for you, and then she was singled, and it was the county lord of Xiuwen." Mrs. Meng hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I heard that the county lord of Xiuwen admires the prince of Ding very much, I think because of this, the county lord of Xiuwen is targeting Yan'er, if something happens to Yan'er, your family business will be gone." So...... The father of the county lord of Xiuwen was the king of Nanping County, and he was quite influential in the court. ”

"Who is the mother of the county lord of Xiuwen?" Su Yiqing raised her eyebrows and asked, it is easy for a mother to influence her daughter's character.

Mrs. Meng looked at Su Yiqing, pondered for a while, and said carefully: "The biological mother of the county lord of Xiuwen is just a favorite concubine next to the king of Nanping County, and it is said that she is ...... Born as a dancer, she is very loved by the king of Nanping. It's a pity that the bones of the body are too thin. He died of illness not long after giving birth to the county lord of Xiuwen, and there were several sons around the king of Nanping County, but there was only one daughter. Naturally, it is an abnormal favor, originally this Xiuwen county lord was not qualified to be named the county lord, just because of the favor of the king of Nanping County, Zhou Xuan from Zhongzhong, and regardless of the princess's opposition. insisted that the county lord of Xiuwen was recorded in the name of the princess and became a concubine, so she was named the county lord. ”

Madame Monte was cautious when she said this. For fear of upsetting Su Yiqing, it was really because the identity of the county lord of Xiuwen was too similar to Su Yiqing, and it was easy to touch Su Yiqing's heart if he was not careful.

Su Yiqing was clear, no wonder the county lord of Xiuwen was so unkind to her. It turns out that this is the case, the same disease may not be able to sympathize with each other, and people who are too similar will be more taboo. The other party's existence seems to remind himself of the flaws he wants to cover up, not to mention that the difference between the two is like an abyss. At the very least, it was a deep chasm, and even if it could be barely crossed, it was already full of scars, and these scars could easily be revealed.

However, it is precisely because the county lord of Xiuwen is too obvious to provoke and manipulate, this matter is not instigated by her, and people who are too short-tempered and impulsive can't set up such a situation, and they should still be people within the Hu family.

"Madame, think about it carefully, do we have any grievances or entanglements of interests with the Hu family?" Su Yiqing pondered for a while, but decided to start with the Hu family, although she could directly ask Lian Yufeng about this matter, but she didn't have to ask others if she could find out.

Mrs. Meng didn't even think about it, and immediately denied: "How come? Our two families have no contact at all, even if there is a complaint that this method is too inferior, and it spreads out, at most our family's daughter's name is gone, but their family is enough to lose the official and kill the head of the family by framing the daughter of a colleague, even if it is not the head of the Hu family, a crime that is not investigated is enough to lose the official, the Hu family will not be so confused, it must be the county lord of Xiuwen, she has a noble identity and does not know how to buy a few confused people, so she did this kind of thing, this Xiuwen county lord has not been very sober. ”

"What's going on with Mrs. Hu's mother and daughter?" Su Yiqing always felt that Mrs. Hu's mother and daughter were too attentive, although Hu Dongmei looked a little shy, not like a person who could play this kind of trick, but people can't be good-looking, but once this kind of person has a bad heart, it is impossible to guard against it.

"Oh! That's my sister, that is, your aunt entrusted me, the Dong family wants to marry the Hu family, it is the nephew of the Dong family who wants to marry Miss Hu family, your aunt has a body, it's not good to Zhang Luo, ask me to look at each other. As Mrs. Meng spoke, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help but say again, "Fu'er, don't you know who is the mastermind?" ”

No wonder Mrs. Meng was so surprised, since Meng Xiaofu was able to see through the conspiracy, and she didn't know how to cover up this matter and send her daughter back, and she also got the letter, she thought that this qiē was in Meng Xiaofu's hands, but after asking a few words, it seemed that this concubine didn't know either.

Su Yiqing said lightly: "My daughter doesn't know much more than her mother, this matter is what the prince said, but the cause and effect of the prince didn't make it clear, the prince is kind and very capable of putting things all right, but it's about my family, but we can't ignore anything, don't you say?"

"Yes." Mrs. Meng suppressed the horror and questions in her heart, and didn't dare to ask how Meng Xiaofu met and talked to King Ding in the short period of time after leaving the banquet, don't look at her as an inner house woman, but she has experienced a lot of things, knowing that there are many capable people in this world, everyone has their own way, and those who can fight a bloody way in adversity are all top people, especially Meng Xiaofu grew up in an environment like that, there is definitely a big problem here, but people must have the name of self-knowledge, and the current situation is beyond her ability, In the case of disparity in power, playing tricks is definitely looking for death.

After stopping for a long time, seeing that Su Yiqing only looked at her quietly and did not speak, Mrs. Meng woke up to her previous questions, and she seemed to have answered her previous questions comprehensively enough, so she hurriedly added, "Miss Hu San's family affairs were proposed by the Hu family on their own initiative, and the Dong family has no reluctance, in fact, the Dong family is still considering, the Dong family is in a special situation, and your aunt is also embarrassed by her nephew's family affairs as an aunt, and you need to find a girl who can't find fault with her character and appearance, so whether it is Miss Hu San or Mrs. Hu San, as long as you show some dissatisfaction, The Dong family will not consider it. The nephews of the Dong family are all good-looking, and there are a lot of people who want to marry recently, so there is no need to be reluctant to marry a girl. ”

Su Yiqing nodded, since it is not Miss Hu San, then it is Miss Hu, thinking about Miss Hu's appearance, it really can't get rid of anything. He asked again: "What is the situation of the eldest lady of the Hu family?" ”

Mrs. Meng recalled for a moment and said, "This Miss Hu is twenty-eight years old. is top-notch in Yancheng Ladies Show, the eldest daughter and concubine, and her appearance and talent are all excellent. The father is in an important position, the mother can also do it, and the family background is good, and the begging has broken through the threshold. This Dong family originally wanted to ask to marry the eldest lady, but it was about identity. The nephew of the Dong family is absolutely unworthy, and he doesn't dare to bring it up to make people laugh, so he asks to marry Miss Hu San, the eldest sister is capable. It shouldn't be much worse to be a sister. ”

"Sixteen, it's not big, it's not small. Don't you have an eyebrow yet? Su Yiqing thought about it secretly, the high is not the low. It's easy to distort in the heart, plus there are scheming means, you can call the wind and rain in the house, and the conditions are all consistent, if you want to say that older people like Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Hu San, they also have the ability, but they think about more things, and they may not dare to take such a risk with the glory of the whole family to do things that are not beneficial to themselves.

"Fu'er, do you doubt ......" Mrs. Meng also felt that if it was about identity means, Miss Hu was indeed capable of planning this qiē, but there was no motive, Yan'er had no grudge against her, and there was no conflict at all.

"I was ...... before Does the Hu family have any intention of marrying their daughter to the prince? After Su Yiqing asked this, she saw Mrs. Meng's eyes widen in surprise, and she smiled again, "When I didn't ask, the daughter of a famous family, even if she had this thought, their family would not shout so much that the whole world knew about it." ”

"No, it's not, it's just that the prince is ......," Mrs. Meng said with difficulty, "The prince is young and promising, and his appearance is one in a million, but after all, he is a few years older, and he has been married, and now there are many ...... around him This Hu family is a serious concubine, known as a clean and upright door...... I don't want to fall into the name of the powerful. ”

Su Yiqing smiled slightly, "Mother doesn't need to be too taboo, I know what you say, but have you ever thought that the parents' thoughts are definitely different from the thoughts of the daughter's family, the appearance of the prince is enough to mess with the minds of many girls in the boudoir, whoever gains has a motive, think about it first, if this strategy is successful, what will be the consequences?" Whether it is the Hu family or our Meng family, will everyone know about this ugly thing at the birthday banquet? Definitely not, this kind of thing happened, the first thing my Meng family has to do is not to find the culprit, but to cover it up, and the one who was deceived by that letter is by no means a mediocre drunkard, and it must also be the son of a powerful family, and then it will involve three families, my Meng family suffers the most, but the family background is relatively weakest, and the only one who can support us is the prince Ding, but my sister has this kind of ugly thing, can I, the sister, still marry into the palace? If the family affair is not successful, in order to seal the mouth of the prince, what can be better than getting rid of a family affair and then sending another girl with a more noble and better background to give the prince as compensation, who can be more suitable than Miss Hu at this time? As for promising a little favor or a few threats to my family, can we still risk completely offending the other families to go to the yamen to complain and publicize the matter to the whole world? Even if our Meng family is unwilling, there is a yamen who will accept this kind of paper? I'm afraid that when the time comes, those families will put the fault on Sister Yan's head, what can we do? ”

Mrs. Meng is not a dull person, thinking about it carefully, she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, it is indeed possible, but ...... She couldn't help muttering: "This is too vicious, and this is also too risky, if things don't go as you think and make trouble, the reputation of the Hu family will be ruined." ”

"Die bold, starving, cowardly, the world is so chaotic that there are people who are so crazy that they don't hesitate to fight for their own selfish interests, regardless of family interests, and even fight for their own lives." Su Yiqing said this with a sneer, from Su Yixiang in the earliest Yuanping Bo Mansion, the Cen family's maid Youcao, the four-room Chen sisters, the Jiang family sisters who wanted to abduct Jiang Yuebai, and then Mrs. Zhou, and countless people in the process of the struggle whose names she couldn't remember...... The traps set by these people are more adventurous than the other, including Su Yixiang, who is smart and cocooned and eventually suffers from it, and there are also those who can still laugh like Mrs. Zhou, according to her, the younger the girl, the bigger her heart, the more she doesn't know the sky and the earth and do things recklessly.

Mrs. Meng thought of herself back then, and had to admit that the girl in front of her was right. She was like this back then, as long as there was a glimmer of opportunity, she would fight for everything, completely reckless of the consequences, and couldn't help but worry: "Fu'er, what should I do next?" If they can't make a plan, they will have a plan, and now my Meng family's strength is far inferior to the Hu family, what should I do? ”

Su Yiqing chuckled and said, "It's good to have your back against the big tree." There is a fixed prince behind him. Mother doesn't need to worry too much, but we can't rely on others completely, and we have to be careful ourselves. Don't be confused and give people a chance, otherwise it will be difficult for the gods to rescue. ”

"Fu'er is right, I will keep an eye on Yan'er in the future, and don't let her make a wrong step." Madame Meng said with some concern. "Ding Wangye's side...... You're going to have our back, aren't you? ”

Su Yiqing said lightly: "Then it depends on something." It's still the same sentence, it's better to ask for others than for yourself, mother, you were right at the beginning, women still have to rely on their mother's family. You and I are mother and daughter, Sister Yan is my sister, and you are my daughter. Naturally, I am also a mother. ”

In other words, I don't think she's a daughter. She won't think she is a mother, Mrs. Meng tasted a little threatening, and then said: "Your father, do you want to tell him about this and let him be on guard?" ”

"In the affairs of officialdom, can my mother intervene?" Su Yiqing asked rhetorically.

Mrs. Meng was silent, at this time she was really convinced, the girl in front of her, who was only a few years older than her daughter, had a clear mind, and her plan was above her, fortunately, she was on the precipice and did not completely stand on her opposite, otherwise she would not know how to die.

……

At this time, the Hu Mansion was already a person on his back, Hu Shilang had been a Fu Yin in his early years, and now he was a Shilang of the Criminal Department, and he had a hand in judging the case, and after Lian Yufeng Hongdaotai and others left, he instructed the big housekeeper to order someone to restrain the big maid Ruoliu Ruozhu and several customary servants around Miss Hu, and only wait for the end of the birthday banquet to interrogate by thunderous means.

These maids and daughters did not have many hard bones, and they quickly confessed, and the truthful confession of the maid and the maid completely annihilated the last glimmer of hope in Hu Shilang's heart, which was indeed done by his daughter, and the human and material evidence was complete.

Hu Shilang immediately ordered 100,000 people to urgently find Mrs. Hu, who was still taking care of the aftermath of the birthday banquet.

Mrs. Hu was tired all day, got up from before dawn to prepare the banquet, and then welcomed the guests, and was amused in front of Mrs. Tai, and was tired and abnormal, and now the matter has not been done, so let the husband hurriedly find it back, several brothers and daughters-in-law only care about competing for favor in front of the old lady and Mrs. Tai, and do nothing else, she does everything alone, busy out of the fire, at this time back to the house, see her husband, did not observe her husband Tieqing's face at all, only displeased: "Master, what is the matter, so hurriedly found, A lot of things have been confiscated, Mrs. Tai's side ......"

"Shut up, what else can you take care of when disaster comes?" Hu Shilang roared and threw a few pieces of offering paper on Mrs. Hu, "Look at the good things your precious daughter has done." ”

Mrs. Hu realized that something was wrong, Hu Shilang was alone in the room, and there was not even a maid to wait, so she picked up the paper, and after a few glances, her face changed greatly, and she lost her voice: "Master, what's going on?" Is this Wakayanagi crazy? How so? And where did the autumn equinox come from, I don't remember that there was such a maid in our house? ”

Hu Shilang said coldly: "I don't know if these maids are crazy or not, but your baby daughter must be crazy, and she actually designed another girl's show at the birthday banquet of her great-grandmother, this is to destroy my Hu family!" ”

"No, no, master, this must be framed by someone, my Ping'er is kind-hearted, she can't do this kind of thing, not to mention that she has nothing to do with the third miss of the Meng family, she can be called unjust in the past and no enmity in the near future, how can she harm her?" Mrs. Hu is really hard to accept.

Husband and wife, Hu Shilang looked at the wrinkles in the corners of his wife's eyes, couldn't bear it, sighed, and told Mrs. Hu what happened today, "I also hope this is not true, but there are all human and material evidence, this is ironclad evidence, if Zhu's maid Lian Ping'er got the handwritten letter from which lady Meng San, and Mrs. Liu was the handwriting imitated by the gentleman who wrote the letter on that street, and I said it all, can there be a misunderstanding?" Even if there is a misunderstanding, with so much evidence, can we still tell the truth? ”

In an instant, Hu Shilang seemed to be ten years old, and until now, he has been thinking about it, if it is impossible to say that there is no one else framed here, even Yufeng and Hong Daotai may all be involved, and even he thought about whether Hong Gongzi's anxious ghost look was also deliberately pretended, even Yufeng and Hong Daotai father and son acted together to deceive him, how could someone be so stupid as to break into the backyard of other people's houses with a letter, and his own house is not a countryman's chicken shed, anyone can sneak in and take a stroll.

But after interrogating the maid beside his daughter, he was desperate, even if it was a trap, it was his daughter who had the wrong intentions first, and then he fell into the trap of others.

And the most important thing about this matter is that it must not be publicized, it is their Hu family who suffers the most, followed by the Hong family, but the same stigma, men and women are different.

Mrs. Hu whimpered and cried, and after a long time, she knelt on the ground, hugged Hu Shilang's thigh, and cried: "Master, no matter what, Ping'er is also your own flesh and blood, you have to save her." ”

Hu Shilang shook his head, "My own biological daughter, can you save me?" But things have developed to this point, and I really can't help it. ”

Mrs. Hu is not an ordinary ignorant woman, and after thinking quickly, she said: "Master, you go and beg the prince and Hong Daotai, let them put Ping'er once, I must discipline them well, anyway, nothing happened now, otherwise forget it, how can you marry Ping'er to ...... Marry someone like that. ”

"Foolish, if it were you, would you just forget it?" Hu Shilang was upset, he had thought about how to cover up this matter, how to deal with the aftermath, and whether there was room for bargaining, but after thinking about it, there was no completely proper way, it was not impossible to persuade Lian Yufeng to take out his daughter, but the price to pay was too great.

"Why not? Master, you are also an important minister in the court, and you are an official in the same court, and there is always a time to help each other, and it is not good for them to force Ping'er to make a feud with the Hu family. Mrs. Hu began to speak, "By the way, they don't have any other evidence, it didn't happen at all, Miss Meng San is fine, they went home, as long as Ruoliu and they don't talk nonsense, who can prove it...... yes, nothing happened at all, yes...... Ruoliu, the ghost of Ruoliu, the girl who carried the master, did it herself, and it has nothing to do with Ping'er. ”

"Ignorant woman, do you think that the court will decide the case, and Diao Min can retract his confession again and again?" Hu Shilang's distressed daughter's mind was suddenly suppressed, and Mrs. Hu's stupid words aroused a lot of anger, the other two are important ministers in the court, in the case of conclusive evidence, he can't turn his head like a street scoundrel, otherwise there is no possibility of resolving the mortal enmity with the two, and he doesn't know what evidence even Yufeng has at present, how can he make such a powerful enemy for a daughter.

Seeing that Mrs. Hu was still crying, Hu Shilang shouted loudly in annoyance; "Don't forget jì, you don't have more than one daughter, this daughter is ruined, don't you even want to protect the other, if so, I will write a letter of resignation, and your mother and daughter will love as much as you want."

As soon as the words came out, Hu Shilang was suddenly shocked, yes, instead of being held by the handle, forever subject to others, and then marrying such a family, it is really better to divorce his wife, this is also an explanation, who does not have a few unfilial children, the matter has passed, just like Mrs. Hu said, there is not much conclusive evidence, even if there is a rumor to throw out, outsiders know that it is not possible to say that such a disposal is favoritism, so thinking about it, he immediately eased his face, helped Mrs. Hu up, and said: "Madam, what you said is that Ping'er is your daughter and mine, She must not be allowed to marry such a gentleman, it will ruin her life...... In this way, I can only wronged you, our husband and wife are temporarily separated, you take Ping'er back to your parents' house to avoid the limelight, rest assured, I will still take care of your mother and daughter no matter what, and the expenses will definitely not be less. (To be continued)

ps: Explain again, the so-called noble girl is not only the heroine, but naturally the noble girl is not the heroine alone, invincible is the loneliest, and the heroine is boring to kill all sides alone, right?

There is another shift in the evening, but it will be later.
