That night, Mrs. Su called all the masters of the Su family to Changfeng Hall.

Because Su Siniang's wedding is imminent, and she is married to His Royal Highness King Xuan, although she is a side concubine, she has a marriage given by the Queen Mother, and the Su family is very honored, no, in order to be able to participate in this marriage with the royal family, even the eldest lady who is half crazy in the big house also followed, but the sixth lady of the Su family still disappeared, and Su Qi did not ask, but just let the mother-in-law take care of it from time to time.

"When I am old, my spirit is inevitably poor, and some time ago it was also the bad luck of our Su family, first the second child was accidentally broken and injured his leg, and then the seven girls were sent to Xicheng, where the plague spread, and when I heard these news, the old woman was in a mess in my heart. Thinking about the body and bones of the second child, and always looking at the news over there in Xicheng, for fear that there will be something wrong in the middle, what one accidentally infected with the plague of the seven girls, for fear that the old man's leg will be abolished, and the eldest and the second daughter-in-law have also worked hard in the middle, when our Su family was the most chaotic, the two of them became the backbone of the old woman and my heart. ”

"As the old saying goes, husband and wife work together, and their benefits are broken, but I see that this is not bad for a family, our family is twisted into a rope, and the family has only survived this difficulty."

"The wedding of the four girls is imminent, it was the grandmother who was negligent before, so that the dowry prepared for you was taken into account, our general's mansion to marry the daughter, whether it is married to the royal relatives or ordinary people, this dowry is treated equally, since the four girls marry the royal family according to the rules need a dowry of one hundred and twenty-four lifts, then the other girls who marry after that will also prepare the dowry according to this number."

Old Madam Su looked at Su Siniang with a smile and said, "Don't worry." Although the time is tight, with my grandmother here, you will definitely get married on the 10th day of October! Then you will be ready to get married, and you will come to your grandmother for nothing. ”

"Now that Qi Niang has been named a noble girl, I am afraid that there will be more entertainment in the circle of wealthy nobles in the imperial capital, not to mention that she also bears the name of a miracle doctor, since the plague has been cured, the people in the imperial capital believe in the rumors of this miracle doctor, the old woman thinks, the seven girls have to deal with a lot of things. If there's anything going on in our house, try not to disturb her. The eldest and second daughter-in-law in the outer courtyard discussed together, and the second daughter-in-law in the inner courtyard has always done well, so she will work hard for you for some time. The last words were said with a smile and listened to the second wife, You Shi.

The eldest master of the Su family and the second master and his wife are naturally full of answers, and Su Sanniang has always ignored these. He bowed his eyebrows and bowed pleasantly. Only Su Siniang turned red.

Grandmother is changing her way and saying that she told Su Qi about the dowry. She just thought that Su Qi was a sister and it would be better to speak, and she had tried it several times openly and secretly with her grandmother, if it weren't for her parents' urging. How could she be so stubborn and say that she would listen to Su Qi.

Grandmother thought that she was complaining, and Su Siniang was even more upset.

In the second room, with Mrs. Su's response, she was naturally overjoyed, and she didn't have any more scruples about Siniang's thoughts, Su Siniang was stunned and couldn't hold her breath, so she invited the nine ladies of the Mu family to come as a companion every once in a while.

In the Imperial Capital General's Mansion in order to prepare for the wedding on the tenth day of the next month, even the rough servants were all busy with their feet.

Su Qi is not busy, but he has a lot of things ahead.

Murong Qin said that there were about her mother-in-law, Wang Yulin, and the old Emperor Rende, although Su Qi believed it, she still asked Granny Chensu to send someone to investigate.

The news he got the day before yesterday was naturally somewhat consistent, and Su Qi listened to the report of Granny Chensu, and was inexplicably relieved.

She was afraid, she had always been afraid that Murong Qin's words that day were just lies, just to trick her into falling into the lie of Su Muli returning to the imperial capital, but fortunately, Ah Qin still did not deceive her.

Su Qi thought that since her mother Wang Yulin and the old Emperor Rende were what happened before she left the cabinet, if you want to investigate further, you naturally have to start with the palace.

Su Qi went to Murong Qin to discuss the matter.

"As the saying goes, knowing the son Mo Ruomu, thinking about the three ladies of the Wang family back then, Mrs. Wang knows best." Murong Qin poured fragrant tea for Su Qi and said slowly.

"My grandmother is very old, and I don't want to disturb her old man because of these things." Su Qi replied directly.

She actually thought about it on the way here, as the head of the family, naturally the children's affairs are the mother's clearest, but the grandmother has always been kind-hearted, and Su Qi lived in the palace during the time, the palace had thousands of people, and there were no rumors about her mother's discomfort, Su Qi thought that it was not because of her grandmother's strict governance of the family, it must be that her old man did not want to reveal such things, whether it was the first or second reason, she Su Qi respected her grandmother's decision.

"Then Ah Qi thinks it's better to go to someone surnamed Wang to ask about this matter?" Murong Qin asked.

Su Qi smiled and said, "In the palace." ”

Out of Xizhi Gate, Su Qi entered the palace directly.

I still remember that when she was a favored concubine above 10,000 people under one person in the harem, her aunt was really beautiful, and now the Molian Palace is still the same, but that aunt is decayed and much older, like a peony that blooms to the top, and it is time to fall when you look at it.

After seeing the ceremony, Su Qi said directly: "My niece wants to talk to my aunt from the bottom of my heart, and I ask my aunt to give my niece some time." ”

Wang Yumo, who was demoted to the throne, waved his hand lazily, and said after the palace gate was closed: "Okay, if you have anything to say, this palace is not afraid of anything now, at most it is just a life, if you Su Muli like to take it directly." ”

Su Qi laughed lightly, "Aunt is so humorous, Su Qi's mother is the sister of Mo Concubine's mother, Qi Niang can't figure it out, what is the use of this niece taking her aunt's life?" ”

Mo Concubine glanced at Su Qi and snorted coldly: "Don't play tricks with this palace here, if you have anything to say, just say it, if you have nothing to do, get out of the Mo Lian Palace in this palace quickly." ”

Very good, what she likes is the straightforward nature of this great aunt.

Applying grease and powder like that before, smiling like a flower in front of people, but throwing a knife in a smile behind people really made Su Qi look at it and sick to his stomach.

"First of all, the assassination on the official ship failed. Then there was the murder in the eldest princess's mansion, and then the poisoning of the medicine in the end, my aunt really looked down on me Su Qi, and I thought that all the means and methods that should be used were used. Fortunately, my Su Qi's life is big, otherwise I'm afraid that I won't be able to see my aunt today. ”

"I wonder why my aunt hates me so much?" Su Qi looked directly at Concubine Mo and said.

"Hate?" Mo Concubine laughed, "It's too high to think of yourself to say hate." ”

"I don't hate you, the person I hate, it's not you!"

"It's not me, it must be Wang Yulin!" Su Qi said immediately.

There is no doubt in the tone!

Mo Concubine raised her head. looked straight at Su Qi. After a long time, he looked away.

"Yes, I hate her, I hate this sister who is my mother's brother. I hate this sister I liked the most when I was younger. ”

"Why?" Su Qi asked.

"Why?" Mo Concubine laughed. "Do you need a reason to hate someone in the heart of a little girl like you? I didn't. I hate her, that is, I hate her to the bone marrow, and I hate her so much that I want to pick her skin and pull her scriptures. I hate to think about her death all the time! ”

"She's dead, shouldn't Emperor Rende be yours?" Su Qi asked softly.

Mo Concubine is a proud person, in this life, she does not allow herself to fail, she does not allow herself to be worse than her, so even if she does not have the title of queen, in her Molian Palace, her clothes and jewelry are still full of phoenix patterns, she wants to prove her status with this!

She is extremely possessive.

Concubine Mo stepped forward directly this time, grabbed Su Qi's neck, gritted her teeth and said, "You...... Where did you find out? ”

Tight and imprisoned, angry eyes, and bloodshot red eyes, such a Mo Concubine can no longer be described by the words "annoyed and angry".

Su Qiyi grabbed Mo Concubine's left wrist and twisted it to the right, followed by "Ahhh With a scream, Mo Concubine fell to the ground. Su Qi gasped and gently pressed his neck.

Just speak, what kind of hand does this concubine really do? Also, I usually look at Mo Concubine's delicate sample, it turns out that even this is pretended, and I am afraid that I will have to fight with Qi Ling.

"Ahaha-"

There was a shrill cry and laughter from inside the room.

Su Qi found that the ink concubine was sitting on the marble floor, her hair accessories were scattered, tears were rolling down her face, and her delicate makeup had become a mess.

"Yes, you're right, she, Wang Yulin, is dead, and His Majesty Rende is mine alone!" Mo Concubine shouted loudly, and then shook her head violently, "No, it's not like this, Your Majesty Rende was originally mine, it was my Wang Yumo, it was her, it was her Wang Yulin who suddenly appeared, it was she who snatched my husband away, and it was she who snatched away my queen's position!" ”

It turned out that when Emperor Rende was just an ordinary prince, the Queen Mother was the queen mother's birthday that year, and the queen Yumo, the eldest of the Wang family, met Emperor Rende, who was the fourth son of the emperor, in the imperial garden. At that time, the old lady Wang was alive, and when she heard about it, she refused without hesitation, for the same reason, the eldest daughter of the Wang family was the best candidate for the queen, and the fourth son of the emperor at that time was not only an ordinary prince, but also a poor worm who was always attached to the eldest son of the emperor. Although the eldest son of the emperor has not been officially established as the crown prince, whether it is the previous dynasty or the harem, even in the heart of the first emperor, the eldest son of the emperor is the best candidate for the crown prince, so if Wang Yumo wants to marry, he should marry the eldest son of the emperor, not the fourth son of the emperor!

"And then?" Su Qi asked.

"Later? No matter how good the eldest son of the emperor is, what can he do if he has to be the emperor first? My Wang Yumo is in love with the fourth son of the emperor, and it will only be the fourth son of the emperor! My grandfather asked my father to forbid my feet, and my grandmother and mother came to me many times a day to reason with me, but I couldn't listen to them, and I thought that as long as I didn't compromise, could it be that my parents could force me to marry someone else? ”

"Now that I think about it, I feel how naïve and ridiculous I was at that time. When I was confined to the boudoir, I thought that when I got through this period of time, when my grandfather and father were discouraged, I would be more well-behaved and coquettish, and my family would definitely agree to my request. I have been comforting myself like this, and I have been convincing myself like this, until I ...... Until I heard the girls talk about my grandfather asking for me to marry the emperor's eldest son! ”

"If I hadn't met him in the Imperial Garden that day, if it wasn't him that day, my Wang Yumo hadn't met him. I think I will obey the arrangement of my grandfather and father in this life, marry the eldest son of the emperor safely and smoothly, and then watch my husband become the emperor, give birth to children for him, and live a comfortable and prosperous life. ”

"And yet, I met him!"

"I don't want to marry anyone else!"

"I cut my wrists, jumped into a lake, went on a hunger strike, I tried everything I could do to hurt myself, but I couldn't get what I wanted. That's not as clean as being dead! ”

"When I was most desperate and bored. He appeared, and I still remember vividly that he had crept into my boudoir that mid-spring night. Under the shadow of the lamp. He looked at me. That focus, that sad look, he said. He knew it all; And he said, He will marry me. ”

Hearing this, Su Qi's brows jumped. Emperor Rende naturally wants to marry you, you are the eldest daughter of the palace, the best candidate for the future queen, with the backer of the palace, no wonder Emperor Rende finally became the best dark horse to compete for the throne.

It turns out that her aunt is not only a lover, but also a fool with a not very bright mind!

The later story is very old-fashioned, it is nothing more than that the woman does not die and does not marry, and the man pretends to be affectionate all the way, first going to his father and queen mother to ask to marry the eldest daughter of the Wang family, and then running to his eldest brother, and affectionately telling the love at first sight between the two, and a handful of snot and tears about the grievances he has suffered over the years, but he just didn't explicitly say that his fourth son has been hiding behind your eldest son for many years, and he has had enough!

Later, my aunt successfully did not marry the eldest son of the emperor, but she also failed to marry the fourth son of the emperor as she wished, the marriage contract was made, March of the following year, it is a good time for the spring flowers to bloom, and it is also the day when our aunt and Lu for two years, it is said that this idea was the queen mother at that time, the reason is very simple, the risk factor of a woman's premature birth is too great, and Mrs. Wang has no reason to disagree.

The accident came out in February of the following year, the aunt scolded and still don't know how the mother met the Emperor Rende who had successfully sat on the dragon chair, in her memory the mother has always been a little girl who needs the help of her big sister, until a month before her wedding, accidentally bumped into the scene of the two hugging in the temple on the outskirts of the city.

Since then, the war between sisters has been going all the way!

Wu Niang's tears fell, "My sister didn't, my sister didn't, Zipei's friendship with Chun Manlou Lu Ji was said by my mother's side, I also thought about it for a while, thinking that Xu was useful to inform the third sister, as for the rest, my sister really didn't know at all." ”

Wu Niang cried even more aggrievedly as she spoke.

Da Lang's heart was broken when he heard this, "The third sister, the fifth sister is still young, how could she know that these things must have been provoked by others." ”

"Hmph, I don't know.!" Sanniang gritted her teeth with hatred, "From the original proposal to obstruct my grandmother's return to the house to the later proposal of the girl's pendant, she has designed and planned this one by one a long time ago, and now she dares to talk to me with sharp teeth, quibbling and crying, see if I don't kill you!" ”

Sanniang rushed forward suddenly, punching and kicking Wu Niang, Da Lang was in a hurry, Aunt Wan, who was hiding in the backyard window, gritted her teeth and burst into tears, she couldn't stand it anymore, turned her back and ran out crying.

So, it didn't take long for even Changfeng Hall to be alarmed.

At the beginning of the day, the lights in the Changfeng Hall were bright, and the meals that had been prepared in the small kitchen were cold and reheated.

"Let's warm it up first, it is estimated that it will not be finished in a while." The housekeeper's mother-in-law commanded.

"Yes." The cook was anxious, "Can ...... I'm afraid this peach blossom assorted honey fish is ...... Fishy. ”

When the fish is cold, it has a fishy smell.

"Withdraw." The housekeeper's mother-in-law sighed, this matter is very big today, and the implication is widespread, and it is estimated that the old lady has no heart for dinner, "Prepare some official swallow ginseng soup." ”

"Yes." The cook stepped back cautiously.

The marble tiles of the main hall were full of kneeling, and sparse sobs came and went.

The old lady sat upright, her eyelids half-drooping, not angry and arrogant.

Fang Cai, the resentful Sanniang, the aggrieved Wuniang, and the cowardly Dalang all told the ins and outs of the matter, and the girl who had been locked up made a supplement.

Chen's heart is uneasy, whether it is Dalang Sanniang or Wuniang, she is the person in her big house, and now there is such an unfilial scandal, I am afraid that her mother will be to blame.

The eldest lord was annoyed and angry, first he did such a big rebellious thing, and now they are still fighting for it, which really disgraced his old face, it was his father's poor discipline, and he was useless.

"Mother. It is unfilial piety for them to prevent you from returning to the house that day, and it is unkind to fight today, it is disrespectful to not listen to the teachings of the elders, and it is dishonest to know and not change, so unfilial and disrespectful, unkind and insincere people, please punish you severely! ”

The old man's righteous words have the meaning of righteousness to destroy relatives.

Siniang, who was sitting beside the old lady, trembled her eyebrows, and the uncle was really angry this time.

"Sir!" Chen's words were crying, "Fang Cai Sanniang Dalang said that it was Wuniang who planned and instigated it." You can't be beaten to death with a stick! ”

She knelt down and climbed forward again. cried and begged for mercy, "Mother, mother, you have to be the master of Sanniang Dalang, they are young and ignorant." Please spare them for a while. I will definitely be optimistic about them in the future. There will never be any more scandals. ”

"Chen, shut up for me!" The eldest lord stepped forward and grabbed her, "You are talking nonsense in front of your mother." ”

Sanniang is even more angry now. It's obviously not her fault, why did her father punish her with that slut?

"Grandmother and father, I was completely deceived by the slut Wu Niang, I am innocent!" She was in a hurry and didn't choose what to say.

"Sanniang, don't be presumptuous!" The eldest lord reprimanded.

"Father, what's wrong with the daughter!" She is out of the way, these days the humiliation of the second room, the framing of Wu Niang, the grievances of her mother, the protection of her father, and the arrogance of the slut in the third room, she has had enough, she is not wrong, but today she has to be punished together, this kind of day, she Su Qingfeng is fed up!

"On that day, you and your mother teamed up to drive Su Muli away, and the eldest brother burned down the Hongyan Inn overnight, and the eldest brother killed the shopkeeper, don't you want your grandmother to return home later?"

She stood up excitedly, walked up to the eldest master, and asked sharply, "Wu Niang's mind is the most poisonous, and she came up with a plan to tell me, and the eldest brother sent someone in a hurry, isn't it exactly what you want?" ”

"Father, mother, second uncle and second aunt, ask yourself, how many people in this house are sincerely willing to let Su Muli return home? Who in the general's mansion doesn't know that the Su family hasn't relied on the three-room industry to maintain it all these years, and now as soon as she comes back, even the general's mansion will be left to her as a dowry, will you be willing? ”

"Grandmother will come back later, so the big guy will have time to do it, and who of you doesn't think so? It's just that it was only later that my grandmother was critically ill and everyone was scared, so they put the blame on our juniors! Honestly, what is wrong with my eldest brother, tell me, didn't we do exactly what you wanted? ”

Sanniang was extremely excited, and in the end, she pointed at the eldest master and asked.

Banxiang stood behind Qi Niang, and her back was dripping with cold sweat when she heard it.

Qi Niang was surprised in her heart, and her face was still as usual. These things are just for the sake of a good word, and they are touching people's hearts, and they have been the case throughout the ages.

The old man was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, "You ...... You rebel! He got up and stepped forward, and the "snap" was a slap, the voice was very harsh, and You Shi, who was sitting in a corner, trembled.

Wu Niang knelt behind her head and stopped sobbing.

"Father......" Sanniang's eyes widened, her face full of surprise, "You...... You're ...... Hit me? ”

"I ...... Where did I say something wrong, you said, isn't Su Muli the house you drove out, didn't the eldest brother send people to chase and kill her overnight with your acquiescence, and that day at the city gate, didn't you and the second uncle try their best to obstruct her from saving her grandmother? ”

"Now, one by one, you open your mouth and close your mouths but only say that I am wrong, I am not filial, unkind, disrespectful and insincere, how good are you elders? Aren't they all vicious and rebellious? ”

"You...... You ......", the old man's face was swollen red, his eyes were round, and his hand pointing at Sanniang trembled vigorously, and suddenly he closed his eyes and fell down with a "bang".

"Sir, sir—"

"Big brother—"

"Father—"

The hall was full of cries.

A quarter of an hour later, with a wave of Qi Niang's hand, all the seventy-seven forty-nine silver needles were pulled out, and the eldest master opened his eyes leisurely.

"Master-", Chen burst into tears.

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief and sat back with the help of Siniang.

"The eldest uncle fainted in anger, and now that he has woken up, he is fine, please rest assured that my grandmother and aunt will be relieved." Qi Niang packed up the silver needle and bowed back, "However, Uncle has a serious heart attack, and he needs more recuperation in the future." ”

"Yes, yes." Chen wiped his tears and nodded, but he didn't know how to say thank you.

"Alright, let's all sit back." The old lady spoke.

Everyone sat silently, and the Chen family stood by the corner of the big man.

Sanniang didn't make any more trouble after this incident, and knelt behind them with Da Lang.

The girl was trembling with fright.

"Fang Cai, you've said enough, and you've made enough trouble, now let me be honest, let me say a few words." The old lady's words were slow and clear, threatening and angry.

Qi Niang couldn't help frowning, grandmother was going to be powerful.

"This first and most important thing, Su Muli, fourteen years old, is the eldest daughter of my Su family in Cen Zhou, the daughter of my son General Changfeng, I officially recognize this granddaughter today, do you still have any objections?"

The people below each half-hung their faces, shook their heads again and again, and said "I don't dare".

The old lady's face was slightly pale, "She, the seventh in the clan, will be the seventh mother of my general's mansion in the future." ”

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.

"The second thing, the Su family in the General's Mansion has never been separated, but the public is public and private, all the three-room properties will be handed over to me from now on, whether it is a big house or a second room, no more interference is allowed, if I find out that someone dares to have any plans for this, immediately expelled me from the Su family."

The old lady swept her eyes around, "You guys, do you still have objections?" ”

Although everyone below had different thoughts, they didn't dare to say anything more, so they could only shake their heads unwillingly.

"The third thing is today." The old lady closed her eyes sadly, "I don't think I've ever had any intimacy with you. ”

She looked at the eldest and second masters, "When you were young, the family business was at the beginning of its establishment, although your father and I were busy all day long, we never despised your discipline, loyalty, filial piety, righteousness, benevolence, poetry, books, etiquette, and music, what made you fall behind?" Your father and I only hope that you can cultivate your self-cultivation well, and that in the future, the three brothers will be able to work together to take care of the family business, but now you can see for yourself what has become of you? ”

"Your father left early, Changfeng passed away suddenly, my wife is old, and the only one who can count on you is you, and this family can only rely on you, but ...... You guys let me down so much......"

"Mother......" The second old man choked up, and the eldest master couldn't cry anymore.

The old lady opened her eyes, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes, but the anger spread from all around her body, especially with a fierce invasion.

"King Xuan just left this morning, you can't bear it! Da Lang, Sanniang, Wu Niang, I don't care who planned and instigated it, but now it's true that you are designing to obstruct me from returning home, and it is also true that you are fighting regardless of the teachings of your elders, but tell me where you are not at fault? The old lady scolded sharply.

"Grandmother ......" Sanniang still didn't give up, "It's obviously Wuniang who instructed ......"

The old lady swept her phoenix eyes, grabbed the tea cup in her hand and threw it over.

"Bang!" With a bang, the tea cup suddenly shattered, and the cold tea and tea foam splashed Sanniang's face.

Everyone present was shocked.

The tea cup just fell three feet in front of Sanniang, and the colorful blue and white Ru kiln fine cup smashed and splashed, but it did not scratch Sanniang's face, the strength, speed and distance estimation are still so accurate, Qi Niang couldn't help but praise in her heart, grandmother is really old and strong!

"Presumptuous! How can Changfeng Hall allow you to spill! The old lady scolded loudly, "Come on, Sanniang Su Qingfeng has no elders below the offender, pull out the family law to serve, in order to set an example!" ”

"Mother—" Chen exclaimed in pain.

"Father, mother, save me—" Sanniang cried and crawled in front of Chen, crying in fear.

"Mother, please calm your anger." Seeing this, the second master hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "Sanniang and Siniang are the personnel of this draft, the roster and portrait have been reported to the government, I am afraid that they will enter the imperial capital together in the middle of next month, and I hope that my mother will be light." (To be continued.) )
