Chapter 177: Announcing the Truth
In fact, there is no need for Queen Qiu to remind her at all-
As early as the evening of the previous day, in the back hall of the Shen Mansion, Shen Zangfeng stretched out his finger for his daughter Shen Shuyu to grab and play, while listening to Wei Changying describe a scene in Weiyang Palace, and after listening to it, he said without thinking about it: "While Zheng Sanyan has not returned, finalize the truth of Zheng Cuiye's death - no matter who did it, it has nothing to do with our family and the Liu family!" It can't have anything to do with any of the gentry! ”
"But Zheng Cuiye died on the Liu family's Zhuangzi." Wei Changying groaned, "Although Mrs. Zhou insisted that the Liu family has a lot of property, then Zhuangzi she has not sent anyone to inspect it, and it was misappropriated by the people below without permission, and it has nothing to do with the Liu family, but it is okay to fool the Wang family and the Zhao family." How can Zheng Sanyan and these people give up? ”
Shen Zangfeng smiled lightly and said, "What if you say that?" Liu Ruowo saved his life, so far bedridden, others seek medical treatment in Fengzhou, the two sons under his knees are still young, Liu Xixun and others in the imperial capital are all driving with the expedition - Lu Guogongfu is an orphan and widow, and now the Liu family is not full of women and children? Who is weaker and pitiful than the other? Zheng Sanyan didn't give up, he thought he could win when he pinched it in front of the emperor? ”
Wei Changying's mind turned: "If Liu Ruowo's injury worsens-"
"Since Mrs. Zhou is determined not to recognize her sister-in-law, she naturally wants to explain to Liu Ruowo." Shen Zangfeng muttered, "This matter should be urgent for the Liu family now, and the Liu family will definitely not use this to use Liu Ruowo's injury to exert pressure." And the reason why our family was dragged into the water is nothing more than that Liu Ruoye slandered you...... What's more, Liu Ruoye is indeed the daughter of the Liu family, and she is also Liu Ruowo's sister-in-law! So the Liu family must do two things now: let Liu Ruowo spread the news of the deterioration of his injuries; Solve Liu Ruoye in advance! ”
"So there's nothing left for our family to do?" Wei Changying thought for a while, and said, "At most, give the Liu family a shot?" ”
Shen Zangfeng bowed slightly: "It's late today, and it is estimated that Mrs. Zhou will come to visit you at our house tomorrow." ”
"Now Your Majesty and they are not in Beijing, the most important ones to guard against are Bo Xi and Liu Rong." Wei Changying groaned, "Ming'er, I don't know if these two will come." ”
"I'll just say hello to these two." Shen Zangfeng said this, a little crying and laughing, and said to his daughter: "Don't you have a teething stick on your chest?" How did you bite your father's finger? ”
Wei Changying looked down, it was not Shen Shuyu who was still holding her father Shen Zangfeng's finger and babbling hard just now, I don't know when she was biting and grinding her teeth on her father's finger with her small mouth open - and the mutton fat jade teething stick that was specially designed for her to grind her teeth was hanging on her chest!
"How old is she, how much strength can she have? What's wrong with biting you a few times? Anyway, it's not his own finger that bites, Wei Changying's favorite daughter is at ease, "You wait for her to bite tired!" As he spoke, he carefully put Shen Shuyu on Shen Zangfeng's lap, so as not to disturb his daughter's interest in grinding her teeth......
The corners of Shen Zangfeng's mouth twitched, and he was about to coax his daughter to loosen up, but he lowered his head, Shen Shuyu suddenly stretched out his arm, grabbed his short hair under his chin, and laughed happily!
"Is a daughter really more distressed than a son?" Shen Zangfeng wanted to pull her hand away but was afraid of hurting her, so he let her hold it, and her jaw hurt a lot, and he took a breath and complained, "Why do I think Guang'er and Xie'er are better than their sisters?" ”
"That's because you weren't there when they were naughty." Wei Changying snorted, "You forget that your mother said before, how many times did Guang'er scratch her father's beard when she was a child, and she always loved to destroy the precious huāhui that her mother liked!" At that time, the eldest sister and my hairpin ring and sideburns suffered a lot in his hands! Now my wife is coming to torture you, and that's all as you should be! ”
Shen Zangfeng sighed and hugged his daughter: "Yes, yes, this is all as it should be...... Hiss! Why is your strength so great? ”
The couple teased their youngest daughter while discussing, and the atmosphere was still very relaxed. Liu's mansion will be cloudy - several ladies returned to the mansion, and they all gathered in Mrs. Zhou's house and refused to leave: "What the hell is going on?" How could the Zhuangzi in your room live in an inexplicable remote branch?! He also kept saying that the twenty-third brother personally sent it over for placement? ”
These ladies, including Mrs. Gu, are still very young - when the imperial capital fell, the female dependents of the Liu family in the imperial capital were almost gone, so among the female dependents now, even if the husband is not young, he is not much older because he is a continuation.
Since they have only passed through the door in the past two years - and most of them are ladies who did not live in the imperial capital before - of course I don't know Liu Ruoye. Therefore, like Queen Qiu, they all regarded Liu Ruoye as Liu Ruowo's outer room, and Mrs. Gu was worried: "Could it really be the daughter of the distant branch?" ”
It is not a big deal for Liu Ruowo to raise the outer room in private, and now it is not impossible for this outer room to be involved in the death of the beloved daughter of the national prince, but if it is a sister and brother. Rape - even if the woman said that she had already gone out of the far branch of the five suits, but, this year, the same surname is not married! It's a proper mess. Lun! A scandal involving the entire Donghu Liu family!
As soon as Mrs. Gu asked, the other concubines became nervous, waiting for Mrs. Zhou's answer.
Now, Mrs. Zhou can't hide it anymore, she said bluntly: "It's not the daughter of the distant branch, it's our own sect!" ”
Mrs. Gu and the others were taken aback: "What?!" ”
"The husband's sister-in-law is the one born to my father's Continuation Lady Zhang, have you all heard of it? Once upon a time, Miss Eleven of our generation. Mrs. Zhou snorted, "Back then, she killed the seventh lady of the Wei family, and the Wei family sent Wei Xinyong to force the palace to Emperor Wei Ai in person, and abolished the prince Shen Xun from the Gu family after the abolition!" After a private fight, she and her mother Zhang were handed over to Shen Xun to dispose of! We have also landed in the previous dynasty, and all sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law should have heard of this person...... What else would happen if you said it would fall into his hands? ”
Mrs. Gu and the others were directly stunned!
After a while, Mrs. Gu said sneeringly: "But isn't Shen Xun already dead?" ”
"She took advantage of the chaos to escape, and then went to the streets, and only found her husband last year or the year before last, and her husband was such a sister, and she couldn't bear to let her be full, so she concealed her identity and placed her in that Zhuangzi!" Mrs. Zhou sighed, "As a result, now she has caused so much trouble for our family, but what should we do?" ”
"It's a big problem!" Mrs. Gu gasped. "I see that you are so unkind to the Wang family, and I think this matter really has nothing to do with our family!" The twenty-third brother is too unreasonable, right? Even if it's his own sister, who has been living abroad for so many years, he doesn't know what the experience is complicated into, he can't bear to make her want to settle her for the rest of his life, so he can say hello to the clan! If you don't say anything, you'll tell us now, what are we going to do now?! ”
Another concubine also complained repeatedly: "Why do you want to be placed on the Liu family's Zhuangzi?" Even if it's your private property, it's too confusing, isn't it? You can't find a subordinate Zhuangzi to settle down, and there will be a person to top the tank at that time! ”
"She has been living abroad for many years, and now although the twenty-third brother has given her a place to stay, she knows that she sees us coming and going in and out openly, but she, the former eleventh miss, is ...... Miss Zheng's death, shouldn't it be her revenge on our family? Another concubine frowned.
Mrs. Gu was very unhappy, originally Liu Xixun and Liu Ruowo had a delicate relationship, as the wives of the two, Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Zhou have always been very defensive of each other, but now listening to Mrs. Zhou's words, Mrs. Gu suddenly felt that she was being calculated: "You still hold on to that Wang family's nonsense, and now things are so troublesome that our Liu family has been dragged into the water...... The clan has never treated you badly, what do you mean by doing this?! ”
"Hey! Sixteen sister-in-law, don't be angry! What if I'm not upset and kindly tell you this? Mrs. Zhou frowned and said, "To be honest, I don't want her to come back!" But the husband misses the old love so much, what can I do - but I think, she shouldn't have murdered Zheng Cuiye, otherwise our family will be in trouble, and she will still be good? Does she want to be in the middle of the world again? So she said that Mrs. Wei hurt Zheng Cuiye, I think it's ten out of ten, that's right! ”
"Even if that's the case, you've already grabbed Wang's words and made a fuss, and it really found out that it was Mrs. Wei, then your fuss is just a joke, maybe Your Majesty will take advantage of the situation to grasp this matter and give us a good look!" Mrs. Gu said angrily, "The twenty-third brother has just saved the car, your room is worry-free for the time being, and the other rooms are not careless, right?" ”
Seeing that the concubines all cast unkind glances, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly said, "How could it be? So what does Zheng Cuiye have to do with our family? Is it Mrs. Wei's hand, why should we care? But if it's Mrs. Wei's hand, the Shen family can't watch this trouble, right? ”
Mrs. Gu frowned and said, "This is also ......."
Before she finished speaking, one of the concubines, Mrs. Qian, interrupted: "Mrs. Wei will only do this kind of poison when she is idle!" She is the daughter of Fengzhou Wei, how can she be so small-minded? However, this Zheng Cuiye died on the Liu family Zhuangzi, and it is difficult for our family to be cleared up, so we have to hurry up and think of ways to solve this section, so as not to be caught by the Zheng family and make a big defeat is serious! ”
This Mrs. Qian is Liu Bing'er's mother, Liu Bing'er has already made the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, Shen Shuming has no parents yet, Wei Changying and his wife have nurturing grace for him - the girl has not passed the door, and the mother's family will offend the husband's family, will Liu Bing'er have a good life in the future?
"Since Sister-in-law Qian said so, then it is okay for us not to mention this on the Shen family's side. It's just that this master is very valued by her husband, I denied that she was the Liu family before, and I didn't know how to explain it when I turned around in front of my husband-" Mrs. Zhou pinched her handkerchief and said embarrassedly.
Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Qian changed their looks, and their expressions were a little uncertain - Mrs. Zhou's purpose was at this point, and the concubines could see that she had already wanted to eradicate Liu Ruoye, but because of Liu Ruowo's attitude, she didn't dare to do it herself!
This will Liu Ruoye catch up with the matter, Mrs. Zhou first concealed the true identity of this eldest sister-in-law from the concubine, and seized the Wang family's mistake to make the matter big - now the Shi clan is definitely going to be together, let alone the family, she told everyone that now there is no other choice than to work together to hide the matter?
And she deliberately suspected that Wei Changying had a part in murdering Zheng Cuiye just now, so she didn't really go to Wei Changying to put pressure, but waited for Mrs. Qian to oppose - this is tantamount to reminding Mrs. Qian that if the Liu family doesn't dispose of Liu Ruoye by themselves and drags Wei Changying into the water, Liu Bing'er is very likely to be implicated!
It is a matter of the future of her own flesh and blood, especially since Liu Bing'er has already had a holiday with Shen Shuyan before, how dare Mrs. Qian offend the Shen family again if she loves her daughter? !
"Twenty-three brothers and sisters are really smart and clever!" Mrs. Qian said with a gloomy face.
Mrs. Zhou was very interested, and she didn't dare to sell cheaply, so she smiled and said, "I can't help it!" Sister-in-law, think about it, you know that such a person is placed on Zhuangzi, and she usually has a big shelf! From time to time, I want this and that, I am afraid every day! I'm afraid of offending my husband! If my sisters-in-law don't help me, it's really ...... There are still so many girls in our family, the husband has just been crowned the prince of the country, and the sixteenth brother in the future, and all the brothers will also be knighted and added to the official - but there is such a master in the family who does not know shame, where will we put the face of the family in the future?! ”
"Now it is in the hands of the Wang family." Seeing Mrs. Zhou like this, it was not good for Mrs. Gu to turn her face, so she had to say calmly, "It's not easy to do it!" ”
"And even if someone dies, can they clear up the relationship with our Liu family?" Mrs. Qian snorted, "You had the idea of cleaning up the portal earlier, why didn't you come and tell us earlier?!" ”
I told you earlier-didn't Liu Xixun just take her husband's handle?! As for our side, when my husband left, he entrusted people to me, and if I let someone do it, I would be able to get out? Otherwise, where will I let you know!
Mrs. Zhou muttered in her heart, and said with a smile on her face: "I have an idea...... It's just that I can't mention ......."
