Chapter 37: One Man Dominates
Of course, it is impossible for the daughter of the Hou Mansion to be a concubine, and the Xiao family was ordered by the first emperor at that time to be raised as a flat wife.
Xiao's started quickly, and before the original match, he gave birth to his eldest son, Xiao Zhendong. Not long after, Xiao Zhenhe's original partner was depressed and left after giving birth to Xiao Yu's father Xiao Yan.
Since then, the Xiao family in this backyard has been alone.
Xiao Yan was naturally arranged in Xiao's courtyard, and Xiao's single-handedly took care of him.
Xiao also let her son Xiao Zhendong rightfully occupy the position of the long house.
Of course, Xiao Yan didn't know about this, and the people who knew about it had already been disposed of by the Xiao family.
As Xiao Zhenhe's reputation became more and more powerful, Xiao Zhenhe also accepted several concubines, but they were all secretly dealt with by the Xiao family, and the Xiao family was the only one in the back house.
As the children grew up, Xiao Zhenhe slowly stopped thinking about taking a concubine.
Later, the second room Lu entered the door, and when she was pregnant with Xiao Yu, she was hit by cold poison again, and this cold poison unfortunately fell into the fetus's womb.
Xiao Zhenhe searched for famous doctors, and only under the introduction of a friend, he invited an old Taoist named Wuyazi.
This Wu Yazi is really capable, Xiao Yu, who even the imperial doctor concluded that he couldn't live, was pulled back from the ghost gate by Wu Yazi. also suppressed the cold poison in Xiao Yu's body, and lived well until now.
However, until now, Xiao Zhenhe and the people in the second room have not found out the real cause of the cold poison in the Lu family, and the matter will be closed later.
However, Xiao Zhenhe had the idea of alchemy after the cold poison incident, and after the guidance of Wu Yazi, he devoted himself to cultivation at home.
In the sixteenth year of Detai, Xiao Zhenhe reached the peak of his political career, and was named a hussar general by Emperor Detai, and the official worshiped the captain, but Xiao Zhenhe was uninterested in political affairs.
All his thoughts were spent on alchemy, and he locked himself in the alchemy room all day.
only came out a few times occasionally, except for meeting Xiao Yu and caring for Xiao Yu, he reacted lightly to everyone in the house.
He also doesn't care about the affairs of the government.
All the power of the Guogong Mansion was in the hands of the Xiao family. She said one, and no one dared to say two.
What touched Xiao the most was that his eldest son Xiao Zhendong and his wife died in an accident when they were out a few years after marriage.
But Xiao Zhenhe is concentrating on cultivation and has no interest in men and women.
Therefore, the Xiao family only has a son like Xiao Zhendong.
Unexpectedly, the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, she lost her only son, and she was even more concerned about several grandchildren.
Xiao Zhendong only left her Xiao's grandson Xiao Li and two granddaughters Xiao Xue and Xiao Rongrong.
This Xiao Li is not only handsome, but also smart since childhood, and no one can compete with him in family ethnology.
Of course, at that time, Xiao Erlang had not yet passed over.
When Xiao Erlang came, Xiao Li entered the Guozijian to study.
Since then, it has been on the rise.
Now serving as an official position in the imperial history of Zhongcheng in the court, Xiao is deeply gratified.
And Xiao Xue and Xiao Rongrong have also been taken by Xiao's side since childhood, strictly disciplined, and they are all familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Xiao Xue is now married to Cao Rui, the eldest son of the Cao family, a waiter in the Ministry of Works.
And Xiao Rongrong's age is the same as the three concubines in the second room, all of whom are fourteen years old.
At this time, sitting on Xiao's left and right hands, the two little ladies who wanted to let go were Xiao Bing and Xiao Chuchu in the second room.
One of them has a cold temperament like an orchid, and the other is delicate like a flower.
Xiao Bing and Xiao Chuchu looked at their grandmother's unkind face, and the two of them were careful to accompany each other and sat upright.
The eyes look at the nose, and the nose looks at the heart. They didn't dare to say anything more.
They didn't expect Xiao Yu to act so absurdly, and his attitude was so arrogant, there was no sense of introspection at all.
At this time, the third sister had already fainted on the bed with her anger, and Aunt Xiao was anxiously looking for the imperial doctor to treat her, but the third sister had not woken up yet. It seems that Xiao Yu was so angry this time that he choked enough.
Xiao Yu's disaster this time is really big, not only spent 10,000 taels of gold to buy a useless slave, but also sarcastically mocked the third sister, grandmother loves the third sister the most on weekdays, this time the third sister was so miserable by Xiao Yu, which made the grandmother not angry.
Besides, usually grandmother sees Xiao Yu staring in her eyes, these two correspond, grandmother doesn't have to put Xiao Yu to death, this time Xiao Yu is afraid that she will have to shed her skin if she doesn't die, Xiao Bing's cold face inadvertently evoked a sneer.
Since grandmother sent Yicui to call Xiao Yu, grandmother's face has not been better.
At this time, the atmosphere in Ronglu Hall was extremely tense.
The two sisters also have their own thoughts, although Xiao Bing has frost on his face, he is happy in his heart.
She can't get used to this Xiao Yu for a long time, isn't there just a few stinky money? Those who wear gold and silver all day long, ignore them when they are unhappy, and reward them with some wealth when they are happy, hum, they are really called Hanako.
How else is she going to get hurt today?
But Xiao Chuchu was nervous in his heart, and he was faintly worried about the sixth sister.
Her aunt Aunt Liu, who was originally Xiao Yu's mother Lu's dowry, was carried by Lu to be an aunt because of Lu's illness outside the birth, and she always felt inferior to Xiao Yu when facing Xiao Yu, and she was always faintly moved by inferiority.
While everyone had their own thoughts, two little slaves stumbled in from outside.
Mother Zhao, who was behind the old lady, swept her eyebrows, scolded angrily, and said, "In front of the old lady, what kind of body is it to be so flustered." ”
The two little slaves knelt on the ground with a thud and begged for mercy again and again. One of them was a little bolder, and said in a trembling voice, "Old lady, it's not good, Sister Yicui has been tied up by the little lady." ”
Mother Zhao was shocked and said hurriedly, 'What? Yi Cui has been tied up, where is she now? When everyone heard the news, they were shocked.
This Yi Cui is not only the right-hand girl of Mrs. Xiao, she is also the daughter of Mother Zhao. Zhao's mother lost her husband at an early age, but she is such a daughter, and she has always been protected by her eyes.
Xiao Bing looked at Mother Zhao's nervous face, and the old lady in the main seat looked even more unhappy.
She laughed fiercely in her heart, Xiao Yu is really a fool, this time she is going to be played to death by herself.
And Xiao Chuchu frowned, secretly worried about Xiao Yu, this time the sixth sister really played too much, how would she end up.
Xiao Chuchu sighed in her heart, even if her grandmother spared her this time, Mother Zhao would not let her go easily.
