Chapter 65: Breaking Away from Relatives and Righteousness
Zhao Yufeng and Zhao Yuxuan, who were present, could be regarded as having dealt with Duanmu Qing, and when they heard her say this at this time, they immediately had a premonition in their hearts that the Duke of Qi was afraid that they would not be able to get any benefits.
Only Han Lingyan stood in a corner that no one had noticed, and a look flashed in his eyes.
Duanmu Jun doesn't know when he started, he believes in this daughter from the bottom of his heart, it seems that she can be so confident no matter what, and this confidence will be confirmed in the future.
Seeing that his father nodded in agreement, Duanmu Qing asked Mo Forget to bring the two of them up.
These two people don't know each other, how could the people of the Qi State Mansion not know?
A small maid and a maid have followed Li Yanding since childhood, and it is also because of their very good service that Li Yanding brought these two people over on such an occasion.
Li Wei had already been carried away by anger at this time, and he was about to step forward, but his two arms were dragged by two forces, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was his father Li Mao and nephew Li Yanyu.
"Xiao'er is stubborn, he actually made such a thing in the good days of Duanhui Junjun and Duwei, it is also his own life, we don't want others, but at this time we still have to go home to deal with Ding'er's funeral, so we won't bother anymore."
Duanmu Jun naturally hugged his fists and made a statement, and then the talents of the Li family left in a big way.
There is such a big thing, even if it is in a lively banquet, it will inevitably be cold, not to mention that this matter is in the past on the surface, but in the court officials, who can't see that this time the Yongding Marquis Mansion and the Qi State Mansion have obviously formed a relationship.
At this time, the Xiqi court was already full of parties, and the Second Prince's Party headed by Qi Guogong was naturally not good to stay at this time, and the others were afraid of causing trouble, so they were also in a hurry to get out, so for a while, the officials who came over said goodbye one after another.
The Yongding Marquis Mansion is not a person who likes to be lively, and he is not uncomfortable in the face of such a scene, and calmly sends the people who are leaving.
After a while, there were no outsiders in the entire banquet hall, and the next few people had a good relationship with the Duanmu family, knowing that their own family members must have something to say at this time, until everyone else was gone, they said two comforting words and left.
At this time, there was no distinction between the inner and outer courtyards, men, women and children, and all the people in the Yongding Marquis Mansion returned to the hall where the banquet was originally held.
The old lady and Duanmu Jun sat on it, and the bottom sat down on both sides according to men and women.
"How many people are aware of today's incident?"
Duanmu Jun swept away the indifference just now, with a condensed expression on his face, and asked sharply.
Ever since Li Yanding's body was discovered, Duanmu Zi had not been in a state, and his purple-black face had flashed in front of him countless times.
Suddenly, when I heard my father's words, I was very frightened, and a pastel Ru kiln cup rolled down from the table in front of me, which was very clear in the serious hall.
Duanmu Jun's gaze shot over like a sharp sword, and he said coldly, "What do you know?" ”
"No...... No, I ......" Duanmu Zi panicked for a moment, "I don't know, I don't know anything." ”
After all, she is still a thirteen-year-old girl, and in the face of such a sudden death, she has already been afraid in her heart, not to mention that before this, she heard Li Yanding's maid Xiaoyue say something like that.
Seeing her reaction, Duanmu Jun couldn't help frowning, and became even more suspicious, "What the hell is going on?" ”
"Master Hou."
Li Ningshuang also felt a little strange when she saw Duanmu Zi's reaction, but this was not the time to worry about this, and not letting Duanmu Jun suspect his daughter's body was the key.
As soon as he opened his mouth, tears fell down his eyes, "Ding'er and Zi'er's relationship has always been good, and the two of them are about the same age, so one of them suddenly went, and they were bitten by the pit viper, how can they be calm?" I'm afraid I'm scared. ”
Looking at Duanmu Zi's appearance again, it really looked like he was frightened, and Duanmu Jun no longer doubted it.
Only Duanmu Qing's mouth gently raised a trace of mockery, but she clearly knew that the maid named Xiaoyue had gone to Duanmu Zi before the incident.
And at that time, when Pearl was given to die, she was not so panicked, so Pearl can be called a person who sees each other every day!
"Qing'er, what do you know?" Duanmu Jun thought of the two people brought by the maid beside Duanmu Qing.
Duanmu Qing shook his head gently, "I don't know the specifics, it's just that I was about to go to my grandmother's place, and I soiled my clothes halfway through, so I had to go back to change, and at that time, I didn't forget to find that there were two sneaky people behind the rockery, and they weren't from our house, so I didn't say anything, so I became suspicious."
Who knew that after the incident, as soon as these two people appeared, the people of the Li family stopped talking, just afraid that they had some shady deeds. ”
In front of Li Ningshuang, Duanmuqing's words were not polite at all, and his expression was a little arrogant, which made Li Ningshuang's mother and daughter look resentful.
Duanmu Zi was originally in a trance, but when he saw Duanmu Qing like this, he woke up, and the hatred in his heart began to breed again.
She knew that Li Yan must have been ruthless to Duanmu Qing for her sake, but she didn't expect to let him take his own life.
Thinking about it at this time, although Li Yanding does not learn and has no skills, he is not a stupid person, and since he has thought about doing this thing at this time, he definitely has no reason to make such a big mistake himself.
His eyes suddenly fell on Duanmu Qing, and the more she looked light, the more hated Duanmu Zi's heart became.
Li Yanding, who I didn't expect before, was also magnified several times at this time, thinking that from childhood to adulthood, he always surrounded him, every time he went to the Mansion of Qi Guo, because he was a concubine, and because he was too beautiful, his cousins didn't like her, only this cousin, who loved her as the moon in the sky, as long as she said a word, how difficult things to get would appear in front of her eyes.
And this time, in the end, he also lost his life for himself.
The woman, however, was still sitting in her seat, like a proud peacock.
After Duanmu Qing finished speaking, he only felt that there were two lines of sight that kept falling on his body, one was from Duanmu Zili Ningshuang, and the other turned out to be Duanmu Cang.
Just think about it a little, Duanmu Cang and Duanmu Qing are different, he has always had a good relationship with the Qi State Mansion, especially with Li Yanyu, even if they don't tear their faces this time, it is impossible for them to be as good as before.
Don't bother to pay attention to his gaze, Yongding Marquis Mansion, no matter who it is, she doesn't want to get too close to the Qi State Mansion.
In the previous life, in order to win over the Yongding Marquis Mansion, the Duke of Qi did not make a lot of efforts, but later saw that there was no hope and did not lose stumbling blocks.
"When did my sister have another girl?" Duanmu Zi looked at Mo Forget behind Duanmu Qing, and his face was puzzled.
Smiling slightly, Duanmu Qing said, "I bought it." ”
The three words vividly held Duanmu Zi in his chest.
Duanmuqing is no longer what it used to be, it was the emperor's own county, what is it to add a maid, and everyone said that she bought it, and all the expenses were paid for by her, what can be said?
The old lady nodded, "It's a capable one." ”
"Father, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not." Duanmu Qing suddenly burst out of a sentence when the atmosphere was stagnant, attracting everyone's attention again.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Duanmu Jun didn't speak, but the old lady made an assertion.
"Although our Yongding Marquis Mansion is not as powerful as the Qi State Mansion, it is not to rely on the people who snort, whether it is above the temple or in the countryside, there is no need to look at people's faces to live, and the Qi State Mansion has done a lot to us in recent times.
Let's look at the Lantern Festival riots some time ago, and then look at today's events, it is obvious that the Duke of Qi has made a stumbling block for us, although we are nominally in-laws, but our daughter is stupid, and I really don't see the slightest mutual support between relatives. ”
Regarding the Lantern Festival riots, what happened in the queen's palace, the old lady experienced it herself, and Duanmu Jun also learned about it all afterwards, and she always had a pimple in her heart, but the emperor revealed the matter, and no one could say anything.
Seeing everyone's eyes, Duanmu Qing continued: "Such a relative, my daughter really doesn't know what else is necessary to maintain, we are not relatives and nobles, and my daughter really doesn't like to be bullied like this, and she has to emphasize to the outside world that it is the taste of kinship." ”
"What do you mean by that, Miss?" Li Ningshuang knows that she can do this position today, all because of her mother's relationship, although the old lady is an aunt, but recently, the relationship with herself has become more and more distant.
If according to Duanmu Qing's meaning, it is obvious that she wants to make a clear relationship with the Duke of Qi, then wouldn't her position in this Hou Mansion be precarious?
Duanmu Qing also did not show weakness, and met her resentful gaze directly, "I mean very clearly, such as a rich and noble relative like the Qi State Mansion, we are probably high, it is better to let it go, lest outsiders think that our Yongding Marquis Mansion is clinging to them." ”
"That's the truth," the old lady made a final decision, "Although our Yongding Marquis Mansion is not as powerful as them, but we also have to live a decent life, how can we let people bully them again and again like this, and even stick to other people's cold faces!" ”
Li Ningshuang wanted to say something, but Zhou said: "I don't know what they mean by the Duke of Qi, what do they think of our Yongding Marquis Mansion?" ”
Although the power of the feed is still not in his hands, the Lin family is introverted, never arrogant, and has always had a good relationship with her, relatively speaking, compared to Li Ningshuang, who has been pressing on her head as an aunt for many years, it is naturally much better.
At this time, there is a chance for her to step down completely, how can she let go of this opportunity.
Duanmu Yi glared at her, signaling that there was no place for her to speak at this time.
Zhou stopped his mouth at this time.
Suddenly, a person rushed out obliquely, rushed in regardless of the occasion, his face was full of tears, and he threw himself directly at Zhou's feet.
