Chapter 294: The Secret That Can't Be Said

"Girl, do you mean that my son borrowed money from you? Don't think I didn't recognize you, aren't you the girl next to Princess Chen. ”

"It's best if you know me, yesterday your son borrowed twenty taels of silver from me at the door of the gambling house, and said that he would pay me back today." Remnant Xue said lightly.

"But it's only twenty taels of silver, so I'm in such a hurry to ask for it! Is Princess Chen so poor? Mama Qian scoffed.

"Twenty taels? When I lent it out, it was twenty taels, but now I have to pay back two hundred taels. Your son promised to return it tenfold. "The remnant snow is so tidy.

Hearing this, Mama Qian opened her mouth wide in fright, two hundred taels of silver, two hundred taels of silver is her life's savings, if she gives it all to others now, then how many years can she save enough money?

"I can only give you twenty taels of silver, if you do this, I can go to the yamen to sue you, and then you will be ruined by the reputation of your princess." Mama Qian threatened coldly.

"You can go to the yamen right now and see if the yamen will believe a gambler's words." Chu Lixue's voice sounded outside.

Mama Qian didn't expect that Chu Lixue was also here, could it be that she instructed all this? But what exactly is she doing this for?

Just thinking about it, Chu Lixue had already walked in, I don't know why, Mama Qian felt very scared when she saw Chu Lixue appear, maybe it was because she helped Empress Dowager Bai murder the other party several times.

"Princess Chen, what do you mean by this, if I really go to the yamen to sue your maid, your reputation will be damaged."

"Really? Concubine Ben didn't care. It's just that your son has poked such a big hole, and you clean up the mess for him every time, how long can you clean it up? He now owes two hundred taels of silver to Remnant Xue, so what about the other creditors? ”

As he was talking, a noisy sound sounded outside the door, and after a while, more than a dozen big men broke in, and the big men looked Chu Lixue up and down, seeing that Chu Lixue's clothes should not be ordinary people.

"You're here to chase too. Debted? Dahan said coldly.

"That's right, so are you." Chu Lixue said lightly.

"Yes, this stinky boy owes us five hundred taels of silver in the gambling house, and it has been delayed for a long time, and he said that his mother will bring the money back today. Let's hurry up and ask for money, or we'll be gambled by this bastard. The big man looked at the man coldly and said.

When Mama Qian heard the other party say five hundred taels of silver, she was already paralyzed on the ground with fright, five hundred taels plus two hundred taels, seven hundred taels of silver, where did she have so much money.

"Stinky boy, your mother is just a servant of people, where is there so much money for you to squander. There's a lot of money now, where do you want me to find so much money? Mama Qian cried and beat the man.

"Mother, don't beat me, you are serving the Queen Mother, you go and ask the Queen Mother for it, she has all this money." The man said excitedly.

He knows very well in his heart that as long as his mother goes back to tell the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will definitely give his mother these silver, you must know that in the palace, there are a lot of unsightly things, so these high-ranking and powerful Queen Mother's hands are even more unclean, and I don't know how much blood there is on her hands.

"You bastard, what are you talking about? Let me ask the Queen Mother for money, do you want your mother's life? Mama Qian said angrily.

She thought that her son was so unassuming, and at this time, she still wanted her to ask the Queen Mother for money. Although he is serving the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will not take out the money.

"You just kill this stinky boy, I don't have that much money for you anyway." Mama Qian said coldly.

"No, mother, I'm your only son, you don't care about me, they will kill me." The man clutched Mama Qian's sleeve and cried.

"Little Liu, it's not that my mother won't take care of you, it's that you owe too many debts, and my mother really doesn't have so much money to take out. Don't look at my mother to serve the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother is no longer what it used to be, and she won't come up with money to help me. What's more, I also know the Queen Mother's secret, if I ask her for money at this time, she will definitely think that I am blackmailing. ”

Suddenly, Mama Qian seemed to realize something, that's right, just now she accidentally said that she knew the secret of the Queen Mother, what can I do? If the Queen Mother knew, she would definitely kill her entire family.

"What do you say you know?" Chu Lixue's eyes narrowed slightly.

Hearing Chu Lixue ask, Mama Qian hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands, she also realized that she had lost her words, and now there are not only her own sons in this house, but also Princess Chen, her maidservant and those gambling houses. Debtors.

Those chasing. Naturally, the debtor is not a fool, and when she heard Mama Qian say that she knew the secret of the Queen Mother, she immediately became interested, so that the money they could get was not only those gambling debts, but maybe they could also use it to extort. It's just that Mama Qian hasn't told the Queen Mother's secret yet, so she is not afraid that they will spread the Queen Mother's secret.

"Hey, old woman, tell me quickly, what secrets do you know about the Queen Mother? Speak up, let's help you ask the Queen Mother for money. ”

The mentality of gamblers is difficult for ordinary people to understand, but they are desperate people for money, and in their opinion, there is nothing more important than money. Even if it is the queen mother, they will not feel afraid.

"The things in the palace, don't you know more about it, aren't you afraid of dying of flowers?" Chu Lixue said coldly.

Although Chu Lixue didn't know to what extent Mama Qian knew the Queen Mother's secrets, it was a matter of royal secrets after all, and it was very likely to be related to the cause of death of King Chen's mother, so she didn't want these people to blackmail Mama Qian through these things.

Although the gamblers could guess that Chu Lixue's identity was different, they would never have imagined that the person in front of them was the famous Princess Chen.

"Stinky girl, don't be nosy, otherwise, don't blame us for being polite." One of the thugs with a meaty face said coldly.

Hearing this, Chu Lixue glanced at the thug, "Nosy? If this concubine must participate, what should you do? ”

When the other party heard Chu Lixue calling herself a concubine, and then looked at the murderous aura on the side of the remnant Xue, he naturally knew that these people were not easy to mess with, and then he also closed his mouth and said no more, but he was somewhat unwilling to ask them to give up such a good opportunity.

"Look at what to see, if you look at it again, I will gouge out your eyes, get out of this girl, and I want you to look good later." Rean Xue is not easy to talk to, and when the two thugs saw this, they could only dare to leave Mama Qian's house with a crawl.

Without idle people and so on, Chu Lixue is very easy to speak. Mama Qian knew that Princess Chen must have heard something to find her in such a way.

"Princess Chen, I guessed your intention to come. Actually, I didn't want to at that time, I was also persecuted. Mama Qian sat down on the ground and said.

What she didn't want to? Is it persecuted? What exactly does Mama Qian's words mean? Did she want to say that she was forced by the Queen Mother to cover up her scandal? It doesn't seem to be like this.

Thinking of this, Chu Lixue said lightly: "Mama Qian, people are doing it, the sky is watching, you have done so many bad things, when you dream back at midnight, aren't you afraid that those unjust souls who were killed by you will chase after your soul and ask for your life?" ”

"Why am I not afraid, after so many years, in fact, I can't sleep well, but the Queen Mother said, you can't blame us, everything can only be blamed on the other party's bad life, if she hadn't discovered the Queen Mother's secret, how could the Queen Mother kill her."

Although Mama Qian didn't say who she was in her mouth, Chu Lixue faintly felt that she in Mama Qian's mouth had a great relationship with King Chen.

"Mama Qian, as long as you are willing to say all the things, perhaps, you will not be implicated. You have to be clear that some things cannot be hidden for a lifetime, as long as there is a little clue, things will be discovered, and paper can't contain fire after all. ”

"Princess Chen, I really can't say it, if I say it, our whole family will be dead." Mama Qian said with tears in her eyes.

At this time, Mama Qian's son Xiaoliu knew that he had caused a lot of trouble this time. But where did he think that the person who gave him the silver would be from King Chen's mansion?

"Mother, just tell them, otherwise there is no money to give, and we will all have to die. Besides, you have served the Queen Mother for so many years, what have you gotten? Xiao Liu said hurriedly.

Chu Lixue knew that Mama Qian would not compromise so easily, she only had such a son, as long as she held her son, it was equivalent to holding her life.

Immediately, Chu Lixue gave Remnant Xue a look, and Remnant Xue willingly put the sword against Xiaoliu's neck, this time Mama Qian panicked, "Don't, don't, princess, please don't." My husband died early, I only have such a son, if I don't have my son, I will have nothing. Mama Qian cried.

"Since you don't want your son to have an accident, then you can cooperate with me and tell me everything you know, and maybe I can save your and your son's lives when the time comes. If you plan to help the Queen Mother hide it, if one day, the Queen Mother is worried that you will reveal her secrets, she can kill you, you can think about it yourself. ”

"But ......, if the Queen Mother knew that I told you about her, the Queen Mother would not let me go." Mama Qian said lightly.

Actually, Chu Lixue doesn't blame Mama Qian, she is just a minion, no matter how bad the queen mother is to her, after all, she didn't want her life, according to the general situation, if a slave knows too many of the master's secrets, then the master will definitely want to shut her mouth.

However, Chu Lixue was not in a hurry to let Mama Qian tell her everything, everything takes time, Chu Lixue was willing to wait, and she believed that Mama Qian would definitely tell her things after thinking about it clearly.
