Chapter 238: Competing for favor

Jiang Yunxi sighed: "But speaking of which, Lin Yingyue is also a capable and means-oriented. My grandfather and uncle have so many concubines, and my cousin used to have a lot of concubines, but she can handle it cleanly and not fall out of favor, it's really amazing! In the future, if I become the wife of the prince, I hope to be so quiet and quiet. ”

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

It is said that since the reception banquet last night, Mrs. Jiang has used the excuse of being unwell to recuperate, Jiang Yunxi naturally has to take care of her mother, and their mother and daughter will not go out. Lin Yingyue went to visit once in the morning and sent some medicinal herbs, so happy not to see them in their hearts, she just told the kitchen to make some supplements and send them over.

Su Xinwan also relaxed a lot, and said: "I think Mrs. Jiang is just a little more powerful at the corners of her mouth, and she doesn't feel happy when she doesn't have a son, but she doesn't see anything else." Yunxi's cousin is also not out of the door, and she does not step out of the second door, and she has no seduction to the prince, and her temperament is also very soft. ”

Lin Yingyue felt that she was a little virgin and a little stupid, but she was too lazy to say it.

Anyway, Su Xinwan may not believe it if she talks too much, and she has to explain hard, so she only said: "It just so happens that they don't trouble you, so you can go back and take care of Sister Hui with peace of mind." Externally, a few words of tone were revealed, and she said that Sister Hui had not slept well at night recently, and I also asked people to stew some delicious food. Make a show, lest anyone look for your business. ”

"Well, thank you for bothering." Su Xinwan left satisfied.

Lin Yingyue couldn't completely relax.

Jiang Yunxi is not a stupid person, and he will not be stupid enough to seduce Huo Yan directly. If her innocent reputation is ruined, how can she become the wife of the prince? Can't you become a concubine? Not to mention, right now, Huo Yan is angry with Jiang's mother, even if Jiang Yunxi wants to seduce, it's not time. But ......, this does not guarantee that Jiang Yunxi will not be a demon.

Lin Yingyue called to listen to Zhu and instructed: "Although Jiang's mother and daughter don't go out, but the girls may not be, you send someone to keep an eye on it, and hurry over to tell me if there is any movement." ”

Listening to Zhuying: "Grandma rest assured, the slave knows what to do." ”

However, to Lin Yingyue's surprise, things were too sudden!

Tingzhu just sent someone out to inquire, and Wenmei came in in with a panicked face, and said hurriedly: "Grandma, Zhuangzi suddenly found a fire, and the fire was still very big, but ......" swallowed his saliva, "As a result, Pink Butterfly and Magnolia were burned to death." ”

"What did you say?!" Lin Yingyue was suddenly shocked.

Asked Mei anxiously: "It is said that the fire is too big to be rescued, and after the fire is extinguished, there will be two corpses left." ”

Lin Yingyue waved her hand, "Okay, don't talk yet." Immediately went to the study to find Huo Yan and said about it, "I think this matter is very strange." Pink Butterfly and Magnolia are on Zhuangzi, they have always been good, how could they suddenly be burned to death? Anyway, I don't believe in any natural disasters. ”

Huo Yan frowned, "How can you get rid of such unfortunate things?" But that's it, death is death. ”

"No way!" Lin Yingyue said categorically: "Master Shizi, let's make it clear." I don't know what Cousin Yunxi thinks, but my aunt is obviously dissatisfied with me. ”

Huo Yan comforted her and said: "That's it, my aunt is the old daughter of my grandfather and grandmother, she is squeamish, and she has had a bad temper since she was a child. When I was a child, I was also choked by her as a nephew, let alone you? Don't worry, she will protect you, and you just need to ignore her in the future. ”

"Hey, how can I have such a big temperament?" Lin Yingyue shook her head and smiled bitterly, and sighed: "No matter how big your aunt's temper is, can she be bigger than the previous eldest lady?" Bigger than Huo Yuan and Zhao Meier? ”

Huo Yan didn't turn the corner for a while, "Then what do you want to say?" ”

Lin Yingyue said: "I just think that I gave birth to four boys and one girl for Houfu. It stands to reason that even if my aunt dislikes my low rank, for the sake of me opening up the branches and leaves for the Houfu, she should be polite, right? But no, my aunt can target me everywhere, and her face is full of hatred for me, why? Didn't the prince think about it carefully? ”

Huo Yan vaguely guessed something, but felt awkward.

He thought about it for a while, and then he was entangled: "Perhaps, my aunt has a bit of a fancy for the glory and wealth of the Huo family, and wants to squeeze Su Xinwan away and leave Cousin Yunxi behind." After all, the name of Mrs. Shizi is still very valuable. However, as long as I don't want to, it's just my aunt's imagination. ”

Lin Yingyue hooked the corners of her mouth, "What if Su Xinwan and I are both unethical?" Are they all dead? Su Xinwan vacated the position of Mrs. Shizi, and I don't deserve to stay, wouldn't it satisfy your aunt. ”

"Don't talk nonsense! What doesn't die? Huo Yan felt that her heart was beating suddenly, even if she was just an assumption, she also felt flustered and unwilling to listen, "No, the master will definitely protect you." ”

"Okay." Lin Yingyue held his hand tightly, looked into his eyes, and said seriously word by word: "Then now, please ask the prince to maintain my reputation for innocence." ”

"Why did you get into your reputation again?" Huo Yanqi said.

Lin Yingyue sneered, "In the past, six concubines died in Houfu, those things, and considering that Houfu's face is not easy to publicize, don't outsiders suspect that I am vicious?" But in the past, no one dared to talk about it, but now ......, your aunt does. I couldn't help but bring out a bit of temperament, "You see, I first killed a concubine, and now I burned two more to death, just to make two tables of mahjong." ”

"Nonsense!" Huo Yan scolded categorically, and said angrily: "Master doesn't allow others to talk nonsense!" ”

Lin Yingyue sneered: "How can the mouth of Youyou be blocked?" ”

Huo Yan said unhappily: "Ye just won't let me!" Whoever says, the lord will tear someone's mouth! ”

"Your aunt's mouth, do you dare to tear it? If you dare to tear it up, I still have to bear the charge of instigating my husband and slandering my elders. The more Lin Yingyue spoke, the colder her heart became, and she said coldly: "Lord Shizi, I know that you love me, spoil me, and love me, but others don't think so." I'm the thorn in the eye, the thorn in the flesh, the roadblock, how can I get rid of it quickly? ”

Huo Yan was silent for a while, "I'll deal with the matter of Pink Butterfly and Yulan." He thought about it for a while, "Just say, just say it's their ......" But no matter how he thought about it, he felt that the reason was inappropriate, and it would involve Lin Yingyue.

Because no matter how much you talk about the death of Fan Die and Yulan, as long as Mrs. Jiang has a heart, she can spread rumors that it is Lin Yingyue who poisoned her, and then lied to the reason for the faction. If you want to block this road, then the only way to ...... is to find out that the real culprit is Mrs. Jiang! In this way, we can block the mouths of the people!

At the same time, Mrs. Jiang's selfishness of wanting her daughter to be the wife of the prince was also made public.

Huo Yan gradually calmed down and said, "Yingyue, you and I have just lived a peaceful and beautiful life, and we can't allow others to destroy it, no one can do it!" Don't say that I don't have the heart to find a new person now, even if I have, I won't look for Cousin Yunxi, otherwise my aunt's mother-in-law is really unbearable. ”

Lin Yingyue was moved, and her eyes wet, "The prince ......"

"Jiaojiao." Huo Yan kissed her on the forehead and said gently: "Don't say anything, don't worry, the master has everything in his heart." Help her sit down, "You, just watch the child at home." ”

"Okay." Lin Yingyue reciprocated, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him lightly on the cheek, "Waiting for your good news." ”

Huo Yan patted her on the shoulder and hurried away.

Lin Yingyue returned to the house satisfied.

Tingzhu was anxiously looking for her, and when he arrived in the inner room, he asked worriedly: "Grandma, I'm afraid that there is something strange about the things in Zhuangzi." It was such a coincidence that Pink Butterfly and Magnolia were suddenly burned to death, how strange it was. ”

Lin Yingyue slowly flicked the teacup and wrote lightly: "Don't worry, the prince has already dealt with it." ”

"Huh?" Tingzhu was a little surprised, and a little uneasy, "Then ......, does the prince know the twists and turns inside?" I always feel that Mrs. Jiang is only afraid of having a ghost in her heart, and she has a plan for the position of Mrs. Shizi. This strange fire may have been made by her, and then used to ruin her grandmother's reputation, with sinister intentions. ”

"Shh Lin Yingyue made a silent gesture and said in a low voice: "These words, you just have to know them in your heart, it's better than asking Mei to be confused." But don't say it if you're not in front of me. As for what to do and how to deal with it, I know it in my heart, so you can rest assured. ”

"Yes, the slave has written it down." Listen to Zhu said solemnly.

Lin Yingyue smiled slightly, "I think, since Mrs. Jiang dares to make such a vote, she will naturally wipe her hands and feet." Shi Ziye is only afraid that he will be in the air this time, and he will not find anything. ”

Sure enough, Huo Yan went to Zhuangzi for a trip and found nothing.

I heard from the people in Zhuangzi that a stranger came secretly to wander around at that time, but in the countryside, everyone was busy working and no one cared, just closed the door to prevent the loss of property. Unexpectedly, both Pink Butterfly and Magnolia were burned to death. Although they all thought that the stranger had set the fire, there was no evidence, and the person had already run away.

Huo Yan's face was gloomy when he heard this, but he didn't lose his temper, but just ordered: "Buy a thin-skinned coffin for both Fan Die and Yulan, and bury them casually." ”

It's not that he has any feelings for these two people, but for Lin Yingyue's reputation, just to save face.

Then he went back and said to Lin Yingyue: "Don't worry, there will be results tonight." ”

At the third watch of the night, one of Mrs. Jiang's subordinates suddenly committed suicide by throwing himself into a well.

The next day, rumors began to spread.

said that Mrs. Jiang was trying to get a good relationship for Jiang Yunxi and set her sights on the position of Mrs. Shizi, so she sent someone to frame Lin Yingyue's reputation and burned Fan Die and Yulan to death. The thing is said to have a nose and eyes,---- otherwise, how could Pink Butterfly and Yulan not die sooner or later, Mrs. Jiang was just annoyed with Lin Yingyue, and the two of them died.

When these words reached Mrs. Jiang's ears, she was so angry that her liver cracked, "Fart!" Fart! Dare to openly kill my subordinates, and spread rumors like this, it's a bastard! ”#####
