Chapter 264: Cornered (Part II)
Xue Mingrui returned to the mansion to give the old lady, Mrs. Xue asked for peace, and told the Tao family about the matter, "Rong Hua will stay there tonight to help." β
The old lady said: "Is the day of Mrs. Tao's funeral set?" β
Xue Mingrui nodded, "It's decided." It's summer now, and it can't be too long, and the funeral will be held on three or five days. β
The old lady took the tea handed by Mother Li, and looked sideways at Xue Mingrui, "It's not easy for Ronghua, there is such a big thing in my mother's family, and my in-laws' wife is sick again, so I want her to help Zhang Luo inside and out," she lowered her head and took a sip of tea, and looked at Mrs. Xue, "You can also go over and take a look when you have time." β
Mrs. Xue said: "I have prepared something, and it will pass tomorrow." β
The old lady said: "Help me with a word, I'm too old to go over." β
Mrs. Xue responded, "Don't worry, mother." β
Mrs. Xue left, and the old lady left Xue Mingrui to talk in the room.
Xue yΓΉ took a lamp and put it on the table, the old lady lay on the soft couch, Xue Mingrui sat aside, and waited until all the people in the room had retreated, and the two grandparents and grandchildren could talk.
The old lady remembered the Tao family's recent affairs, "Did Rong Hua tell you about the Tao family?" What are you going to do? β
Xue Mingrui was calm and calm, "I don't know how to deal with my mother-in-law in the Tao family." β
The old lady frowned slightly, "I heard that your father-in-law's position as the sect leader is not guaranteed. β
Xue Mingrui said: "The position of father-in-law and patriarch was originally only given by Mrs. Tao's help, but now that the old lady has died, my father-in-law can't hold it back." β
She couldn't suppress the just nice words, what she heard was that the unfilial children sold the property in the elders' houses, and the elders were angry to death. The old lady asked again, "What did Rong Hua say?" β
Xue Mingrui said: "Rong Hua just won't let me chuckle. β
The old lady sighed, "Rong Hua, this kid thinks about everything for your sake." The hand-made version of this article was first published in the 55ab community Xue Mingrui said: "We are not good at things in the Tao family, and Rong Hua can only help with the old lady's funeral when he goes back, and then Brother Hong is still young, and the old lady asks Rong Hua to take care of it." β
The old lady said: "Brother Hong, this child is the same age as Mingzhe, anyway, if you want to cΓ o Mingzhe, don't miss Brother Hong, I look at Brother Hong and Rong Hua are close." β
Even my grandmother saw it.
The old lady sighed, Tao Zhengan and the eldest lady behaved badly on weekdays, so they would be blamed by the clansmen, and others would not be able to control much. Who doesn't have a scale in his heart. Acting too much on weekdays, there will always be a day when you will be questioned. Fortunately, Mrs. Tao explained carefully before she died, and Rong Hua has always been filial and not at fault. Rong Hua was also invited by the clan to help when he returned to Tao's house this time, no matter what the result is, Rong Hua's reputation will not have much impact.
The old lady thought about it and said, "The eighth prince is seriously ill in the company, how did he report it in the yamen?" β
Xue Mingrui raised his head and looked at the old lady, "It's just that the Eighth Prince suddenly fell seriously ill, and the Holy Decree asked the envoy of the Tai Hospital to accompany the capital," he said and paused, "In private, I arrested a lot of people in the Tai Hospital, and sent the prescriptions and consultation files used by the Eighth Prince on weekdays to accompany the capital." β
The old lady said: "So the holy car may return to Beijing?" β
Xue Mingrui said: "There is no clear decree, the news from the side of the capital has not been very clear, and even Prince Zhuang of the prison country has not received a secret decree." β
Even Prince Zhuang, who was in charge of the country, didn't know, that is to say, it was the emperor's pro-army who started to arrest people.
The old lady's face was heavy, "The eighth prince was raised by the imperial concubine, is there any news of the imperial concubine?" β
Xue Mingrui's eyes flickered, "No." I only heard that the illness of the eighth prince was in the palace. β
That's it, since the Eighth Prince already had a disease in the first chapter of the palace ant hand fighting group, it must have become serious after a long journey, and in the final analysis, it was the fault of the imperial concubine and the imperial hospital who raised the eighth prince, and the imperial concubine and the imperial hospital did not report the condition of the eighth prince to the truth.
The imperial concubine has been in the palace for so many years, why did she accidentally take such a wrong step.
If the Eighth Prince's illness can be cured, if it can't be cured... Not only the imperial concubine, but the entire Cai family will be implicated.
The atmosphere now is the same as before the emperor ascended the throne many years ago, in order to fight for that position, I don't know how many people will lose their lives because of this.
The capital is that the imperial concubine family and Prince Zhuang contain each other, and now that the imperial concubine has an accident, Prince Zhuang has become the heir to the throne with the highest voice. The old lady frowned cautiously, "You have to remind Rong Hua of this matter." β
Xue Mingrui said: "Go to Taofu Ronghua today and tell me about it." β
I heard about it so soon in the Tao family.
There was a gentle light in Xue Mingrui's eyes, "Rong Hua also reminded me." The old lady nodded, something went wrong with the imperial concubine, and Concubine Jing, who was pregnant, became the most favored concubine, if this matter had nothing to do with Concubine Jing, she, who grew up in the palace, would not believe it.
Over the years, the battle for the throne has gone from the palace to the court, and countless people have been affected by it, whether it is the nobles or the civil and military officials, and now the dragon sons and grandsons have become the chess pieces of this battle.
It is very likely that the illness of the eighth prince will not be able to go on if the imperial concubine is found, but sooner or later there will be a day when the truth will be revealed, and the emperor's temperament she understands that the emperor is a Ming Jun today, and the Ming Jun will debate the authenticity of the courtiers, and many things will be investigated even if they calm down on the surface, they will still inquire about it in private.
"The Tao family and Yi Chenghou used to be in-laws, and your father-in-law did a lot of things for Yi Chenghou." The old lady frowned as she spoke, and she was the Marquis of Yicheng Mansion and Concubine Jing, and she was still marrying the second lady to Changningbo Mansion, and the Tao family wanted to be exquisite, but in the end, they couldn't take care of it. Even if there is Concubine Jing in the palace, Concubine Jing may not help at this juncture, if the Tao family insists on Rong Hua coming forward, Rong Hua is not easy to refuse, "The married daughter, if your grandmother dies and keeps watch all night, it will be considered a dedication, you will bring Rong Hua back tomorrow!" β
Xue Mingrui frowned, "I'm afraid that the Tao family will be unwilling." β
The old lady smiled, "Then what's unwilling, my daughter-in-law, the family still needs her." The day passes, and the night returns, and it doesn't stay overnight. I'll be the bad guys, you're still young. β
As long as she shows her attitude, Rong Hua will be much better.
Xue Mingrui also smiled slightly.
The old lady turned her head to look at her grandson, recalling that her grandson used to read in her house when she was a child, she also leaned on the soft couch like this, and Mingrui also sat on the brocade and held the book seriously, how many years have their grandparents not sat together like this and talked? Especially the smile on Ming Rui's face, she hadn't seen it for a long time. It wasn't until Rong Hua got married that it seemed to be slowly returning to the past.
It wasn't until the sky was a little brighter that Rong Hua went to the wing room to rest for a while.
MΓmΓ just fell asleep, hearing Jinxiu talking to people outside, Rong Hua's eyelids were heavy and he didn't pay attention to it, and he slept for a while before he was refreshed, the maids came in one after another to serve Rong Hua to wash, Feng's daughter-in-law combed Rong Hua's plain bun, and Jinxiu came forward and said: "Mother Chen has come, the eldest lady asked the kitchen to boil medicinal porridge for the young lady, and let the young lady eat more for a while." β
When did she have such treatment.
The people in the clan didn't bΔ« Tao Zheng'an to divorce his wife for the time being, but it was not because she said good things for the eldest lady in front of the first chapter of the three old ladies and ants. But she let the people in the clan see Tao Zhengan clearly, and besides, the third old lady was for the position of the patriarch, how could Tao Zhengan divorce his wife so easily?
It's no wonder that Tao Zheng'an and the eldest lady have considered each other.
Rong Hua asked in a low voice, "Did Chang Ningbo Mansion let people enter the mansion again?" β
Jinxiu nodded, "Hmm." I came early in the morning, and the mother-in-law at the back door went out to report the letter. β
Yaohua gave a lot of favors to her subordinates when she was in Taofu, so that these people could help her find out the news after she got married, but Yaohua missed a little. Although Yaohua was in the Tao family, many things were also discovered by the eloquence of the subordinates, but at that time she was the second lady of the Tao family, and she could easily distinguish the importance in the Tao family.
When Yaohua heard that the eldest lady had temporarily escaped, she would definitely connect the news she had heard before, and it was not difficult to get the result - the eldest lady had put all the blame on her.
Chang Ningbo Bofu will definitely not come forward to speak for Yaohua in order to protect himself, and Yaohua's temperament will not easily give up the hard-won reputation of virtue.
Even if the clan does not allow Yaohua to enter the door again, Yaohua will definitely find a way to win sympathy, now the second old lady and the third old lady are in charge of the Tao family, and Yaohua's best thing is to complain in front of the elders.
Yaohua crossed the eldest lady and went directly to the elders of the clan for help, so that the eldest lady knew what she would think in her heart?
The eldest lady has been deceived for so long, and she should see clearly what kind of person her distressed concubine is.
"The prince is really sick." As soon as Xiangzhu entered the door, he hurriedly whispered, "Not only the prince, but also the eldest girl Qingcheng beside the prince, is also sick." β
Yaohua raised her eyes slightly, "You ant hand fight group for the first time chapter hand fight saw it with your own eyes?" Xiangzhu nodded, "Qingcheng has red spots on his body, it looks so scary, and the prince is like this," he said and took a breath and paused, "Madame said that no one will be allowed to pass away from the residence of the prince in the future, only let Qingcheng and Qingsha stay and serve." β
"There were a few aunts in the backyard who got the news and cried to see the prince, but they were scolded back by the lady. The palace invited the imperial doctor to come and see, and the imperial doctor said that if the red spots on the prince's body could be exhausted, maybe they could be cured. β
Jade brought tea into the house, was shocked when she heard this, and blurted out: "The prince looked fine last night, why did he get sick all of a sudden?" β
Yaohua didn't answer Jade's words, and only asked Xiangzhu lightly, "Can you still hand the news in?" β
Xiangzhu shook his head, "Madame does not allow others to approach the courtyard of the prince. β
She deliberately avoided Ren Yanfeng last night, and she wanted to see it today, but she couldn't see it...... Yaohua bit her lip, Chang Ningbo Mansion must have also gotten the news, so Ren Yanfeng suddenly became seriously ill.
It seems that Chang Ningbo Mansion will not stand up for her.
Yaohua looked out the window.
She couldn't just give up.
Yaohua stood up, "Go to Madame's room." β
