Chapter 585: The Key

Mother Tong's words made Mother Jiang stunned, "She didn't attack the first princess?"

Mother Tong shook her head, "Based on the knowledge of the slave maid at that time, Meng Ruyi has been forced to a dead end, and there is no better choice, but Meng Ruyi just carved out a dead end."

At this time, Li Qingyi was also hung up to his appetite, "What did she do?"

Mother Tong smacked her lips, "Just when the old lady was still waiting for Meng Ruyi's actions, Meng Ruyi turned around and went to the first princess to take the blame!"

"What?"

Li Qingyi looked at Tong's mother in surprise, "She went to confess her mistake to the first princess?"

"Yes, Meng Ruyi stopped his sins at the step of seeking wealth. When she came out of the old lady's courtyard, she immediately asked people to go to Han Qi and Meng Er, telling them that the matter had been revealed and that they should not continue, and she took the two thousand taels in her hand to go to the princess to ask for guilt and explain the facts. In this way, even if the prince knows the cause and effect afterwards, Meng Ruyi only made money and did not kill him, and the prince will even be glad that her conscience is still there, and she did not attack the first princess, even if the three of them are punished, they will not take their lives, and it is a big deal that the palace will cut off contact with the Meng family in the future."

Li Qingyi snorted lightly.

is also seeking money, and even the means are similar, but Meng Ruyi can stop the loss in time, but the Lin family is wrong again and again.

"But in this way, Meng Ruyi must explain the reason for her defeat to the princess, won't the old lady's plan be hidden?"

Although the old lady did not instruct Meng Ruyi, she knew that Meng Ruyi might harm Xiao Lanhe in order to cover up the truth, but she did not stop it.

Mother Tong sighed, "Yes, probably Meng Ruyi also has resentment in her heart, hating the old lady for forcing her to a dead end, and wanting to use her to get rid of the daughter-in-law she hates, so she didn't cover it up for the old lady, and told the princess the old lady's words as they were. The princess is a smart person, although the old lady only said that she should hide it from the prince, but since it is 'concealed, not 'admitted', it already shows the old lady's wishes......

Li Qingyi involuntarily raised his eyebrows, "This Meng Ruyi...... Absolutely!"

Mother Tong looked at Li Qingyi and inadvertently showed a hint of schadenfreude, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and put her hand to her lips to "cough".

Li Qingyi came back to his senses and smiled kindly at Tong's mother, "That's ...... Did the princess tell the princess about this?"

"Nope." Tong's mother sighed a little, "The princess just told Meng Ruyi about her mistake. But the princess is not a soft persimmon, someone wants her life, she naturally wants to fight back. At that time, the old lady was still alive, so the princess wrote a letter to the eldest princess of Deqing, and it didn't take long for the eldest princess of Deqing to take a room of concubines for the old lady."

Mother Jiang wiped her sweat and had an urge to vomit blood, no wonder she could give birth to a son like her uncle, and the first princess was not an ordinary person.

If the mother-in-law gives her husband a concubine, she will give a concubine to her mother-in-law's husband!

What a surprising means!

Li Qingyi said: "It turns out that the first princess and the eldest princess of Deqing have an old relationship."

The eldest princess of Deqing is the emperor's aunt, the aunt and nephew are very close, and the prince and Qin Zeng are naturally familiar, it is ashamed to die, Li Qingyi and Qin Zeng's first time is in the Chonghua Palace of the eldest princess of Deqing, and I don't know if the cave is sealed now......

Tong's mother replied: "To be precise, the eldest princess of Deqing and the old lady of the Xiao family are handkerchiefs, and naturally the princess is regarded as a junior.

Li Qingyi nodded, "Mom continued."

"With the eldest princess in charge, the old lady doesn't even have room to refuse, and the eldest princess didn't pick those enchanting goblins to make the house restless, but chose the Hu family, who is virtuous, considerate, and on the table. The Hu family was originally from a good family, and his parents died early when he was a child, and he only raised his younger siblings to adulthood, which delayed a lifelong event. Such a virtuous and righteous woman is very much loved by the old lady, so Aunt Hu is a noble concubine when she enters the door."

"The old lady held a bad breath in her heart, but she didn't dare to settle accounts with the princess, because the princess was holding Meng Ruyizhi in her hand

The handle of the matter, once the prince knows what she has done, the relationship between mother and son will definitely be extremely cold. I couldn't find trouble with the princess, so the old lady poured her anger on Aunt Hu, but this Aunt Hu was always respectful to the old lady, and she really couldn't find anything wrong, even if she was scolded for no reason, she suffered everything, and then went to show the old lady with the scars on her face."

"The old lady was in her forties at the time, and she was very enthusiastic about Aunt Hu during that time, and when she saw that Aunt Hu was angry, she was naturally angry with the old lady and asked the reason, and the old lady only had the reason of "causing trouble", and the old lady was furious, pointing out that the old lady was 'jealous, jealousy is one of the seven, and the guilt is much more serious than pinching the daughter-in-law. The old lady was imprisoned in the ancestral hall by the old lady for a day and a night of reflection, and she lost face. When the princess saw that the old lady had been punished, she let Meng Ruyi go back to Meng's house."

Li Qingyi said: "The princess must have done this to make the old lady understand that she just wants to do what she should do in peace, and I hope that the old lady will not embarrass her, and if she embarrasses her, she will not be easy to provoke."

Tong's mother said: "Who said no, but since ancient times, there have been few mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who can be at peace with each other, I have only heard of mother-in-law pinching daughter-in-law, and I have never seen the other way around, the anger in the old lady's heart has only increased, and she has endured until the princess gives birth."

Li Qingyi narrowed her eyes, "The old lady doesn't want to take advantage of the uncle and force the princess to be soft, right?"

"Grandma's guess is not far from ten......"

Tong's mother was a little ashamed, and she didn't know whether she was ashamed of the old lady or because she had some idea for the old lady at that time.

"The princess gave birth to the uncle, and the old lady asked the uncle to go under the pretext that the princess was not in good health and was weak after giving birth, and raised the uncle in the middle courtyard. The child is the weakness of the princess, the old lady finally pinched the princess, taking advantage of the princess's distance at the border, and the princess was embarrassed everywhere, as long as the princess resisted a little, the old lady tossed the child......

Li Qingyi's face sank.

"People's hearts are flesh and blood, and the old lady doesn't feel sorry for the uncle at all?"

Mother Tong saw that Li Qingyi was unhappy, and replied cautiously: "The slave maid said before that the old lady also had high hopes for the uncle at the beginning, after all, she was the eldest grandson and the first son of her beloved son, but then I don't know why, the old lady's attitude towards the uncle suddenly changed, even if she was raised in Jingyuntang, she rarely went to see him, and the nurse was taking care of him."

Li Qingyi hurriedly asked, "Did someone say anything bad to the old lady?"

Mother Tong shook her head: "The slave maid has always served the old lady closely, and I have never heard anyone chew the root of the tongue in front of the old lady, and besides, everyone in the house knows that the prince is the family, he loves the princess and the uncle, their mother and son more than everything, who will not touch this moldy head with long eyes?" Is there any benefit?"

Li Qingyi didn't believe it, "It's impossible for my mother not to leave the old lady's side for twelve hours a day, maybe my mother doesn't know."

Tong's mother paused, "That's also possible, but the old lady is used to discussing everything with the slave maid, and she didn't mention a word......

Li Qingyi pondered for a long time and said, "Perhaps, what is the thing that should not be opened, during the period when the old lady's attitude towards the uncle changed, who could have been in the palace? Have you ever been alone with an old lady?"

Mother Tong thought about it for a long time with a sad face, but still shook her head, "After so many years, the slave really doesn't remember......

Li Qingyi looked at her and sighed, "Mom's story is really good, but unfortunately, it's just a little bit short. Again, this is the key point...... That's it, wolan, take this box over, the uncle's childhood is counted as one, Meng Ruyi is counted as one, Aunt Hu is counted as one, Mother Tong can pick it at will."

Mother Tong's eyes lit up, and she looked at the jewels in the box in her hand and silently estimated its value in her heart.

Just as he was about to stretch out his hand, he heard Li Qingyi say, "It's a pity, if Mother Tong can remember the most critical point, I will double today's reward for my mother, it's a pity."

Mother Tong's hand was in the air, of course she knew that Li Qingyi was deliberately seducing her, but she really couldn't remember it, who could remember it clearly when it was so far ago?

"Mother Tong really can't remember?" Li Qingyi reminded with an unwilling face: "Just before and after the uncle was born, the old lady's attitude changed, did she have a mind that did not belong, she was irritable and irritable, and it was difficult to swallow? Haven't anyone been in the house? Far and near, ripe and unripe. Or has the old lady ever been out of the house? Incense? Banquets? Or is it some kind of mess of flowers?"

Mother Tong frowned, "If Grandma wants to say this, the slave seems to be really impressed......

Li Qingyi immediately came to his senses when he heard this, and Jiang's mother, Xianglan and the others also unconsciously held their breath.

Tong's mother thought carefully and said: "The words of the eldest grandmother reminded the slave maid, after the uncle was born, the old lady did not admit it, but the slave and the maid could feel the joy in her heart, the night before the uncle's full moon banquet, she also talked to the slave and the maid about whether the uncle would be good at literature or martial arts in the future, and said that she would have to wait for more than two months to catch Zhou, and she was a little itchy, I don't know what the uncle can catch, and the next day the full moon banquet, the old lady was quite happy...... It should be that after the uncle's full moon banquet, the old lady's appetite suddenly became extremely poor, she couldn't sleep at night, and she was very irritable...... Grandma said, did someone say something to the old lady in private at the full moon banquet?"

Li Qingyi frowned, "It seems that it is......

Woad said angrily, "Who is so unhappy and says bad things when people are doing happy events?"

Li Qingyi thought thoughtfully, "Mom, can you still remember all the guests at the Full Moon Banquet?"
