Chapter 93: Poisonous Plan
Linghu Pingxue saw that her mother was slapped by the old lady and scolded her again. She stood aside obediently and did not dare to say anything.
The Hou Mansion seems to be the head of the mother, but the final decision-making power is always in the hands of my grandmother. Now my grandmother is angry, and Linghu Pingxue is also worried that her grandmother will not pay attention to her in the future, so she can only stand aside and watch without saying much.
The old lady glanced at Linghu Pingxue. Although she still felt sorry for her granddaughter, this time, Linghu Pingxue did disappoint her! There was no such obvious gap, but now Linghu Manyue's appearance suddenly seemed that Pingxue was not enough to make a mistake.
Seeing that the grandmother looked at her with a complex and deep look, she was no longer as firm and undoubted as she used to be. Linghu Pingxue felt cold and immediately knelt down.
"Grandma, granddaughter is wrong. This time, granddaughter underestimated the enemy and was framed by Linghu Manyue. Granddaughter really knew that he was wrong. Grandma would give his granddaughter another chance." Linghu Pingxue was well aware that acting was about to be enough. In the crisis, he would regain the trust and favor of the old lady first, and he couldn't take care of the others.
When the second wife saw her, Ye Niu knelt down reluctantly.
"Old lady, my wife also knew her mistake. This time she failed to discuss with the old lady and decided without permission. It was the wife's fault, and she would never dare to do so again." Although the second lady said that, she felt ten thousand and ten thousand dissatisfied.
The old lady was still angry, but when she saw her beloved granddaughter kneeling on the cold ground and crying with her pear blossoms in the rain, the old lady was soft-hearted and made Linghu Pingxue and the second lady get up with a cold face.
"Okay, I'm not dead yet! Why are you crying one by one! Ping Xue, tell me what's going on?"
The old lady only knew that Xue Yamei was dead, but she didn't understand why Linghu Pingxue offended the Empress Dowager.
Linghu Pingxue's face turned red, and when she thought of the scenes that happened in Weiyang Palace, she was both hated and afraid.
"Grandmother, it was Linghu Manyue who framed me!"
——
Linghu Pingxue naturally would not say a good thing about the full moon, and said it to the fire of what happened in the Weiyang Palace. The old lady became more and more angry as she heard it, but it had happened. It would be useless to get angry now, but she was not a little disappointed with the second lady.
"Okay, okay! Look at the good things you did? Do you think I've slapped you in the face and wronged?" The old lady was really feeling sorry for her at this moment.
Linghu Manyue must be eliminated. Since she cannot pave the way for Pingxue, she cannot keep her in the marquis’s house. But the mother and the mother are so anxious that they dare to kill people in the palace. Fortunately, only the empress dowager is there today. If the concubine An who is against the empress dowager is there, and if she is stuck in another leg, she is afraid that both of the mother and the mother will come back without a lifetime!
"Old lady, daughter-in-law - I know she is wrong." The second lady is in a disadvantage and dares not contradict the old lady except to admit her mistake.
"Now you have a Cuiyun! You buried Cuiyun there for five years, but now you have given it to them! Look at your ability!" The old lady glanced at the second lady, her anger was slow to go away.
At this moment, the voice of looking for my mother rang outside.
"Old lady, the man is here."
The old lady stopped scolding the second lady, and a gloomy flashed in her eyes.
"You go to the inner room first, wait, you don't let me come out without my instructions."
"Yes, old lady."
"Yes, grandma."
Although the second wife and Linghu Pingxue were curious about who came here early in the morning, the old lady gave the order, and both of them went into the inner room and waited obediently.
After a while, he asked his mother to lead an old lady in. The second lady saw through the gap in the window lattice and saw that the old lady was the mother of Xue Zhao, the minister of the Ministry of Rites. The second lady was shocked.
"Mother, what's going on?" Linghu Pingxue lowered her voice and asked in the second wife's ear.
She had seen this old lady once, why did she come? Could it be that the Xue family had some doubts about the Hou Mansion? They knew that Bai Yu was his mother's person? Thinking of this, Linghu Pingxue secretly sweated for her mother.
The second wife also looked at it with fear, and raised her ears to listen to the conversation between the old lady and the old lady of the Xue family.
But seeing that the atmosphere between the old lady of the Xue family and the old lady was harmonious, and it didn't seem like she knew something, the second lady was relieved.
The old lady of the Xue family sat for a while and got up and left. After that, she said something about asking the old lady to be thoughtful. She heard that the second lady and Linghu Pingxue were confused and confused.
The old lady of the Xue family and the old lady were just greetings, but if she was just having sex, how could she come here early in the morning? Besides, the Xue family had just died, so why did the old lady run out without staying at home?
The old lady of the Xue family left, and the old lady asked her to ask her mother to take her second wife and Linghu Pingxue out.
"Sit." The old lady's tone was still cold. The second lady didn't dare to be careless. After sitting down, she asked carefully.
"Old lady, why did the old lady of the Xue family come early in the morning? Is it because of Xue Yamei?"
The old lady glanced at the second lady and snorted coldly.
"If so, do you still have the life to sit here? I'm killing people in Weiyang Palace, and the daughter of the court officials is still the one who kills! You are betting on the entire Marquis' Mansion to your own pleasure!" As soon as the old lady said this, the second lady pretended to be ashamed.
"Old lady, my daughter-in-law was indeed not very considerate before. At that time, she just wanted to get rid of the girl as soon as possible. Moreover, my wife had thought about it. Even if Linghu Manyue killed someone, she would not implicate the Marquis' Mansion, because she had just returned to the Marquis' Mansion less than a month ago. At worst, all the responsibilities were pushed to the He family, right?"
The second wife's vicious intentions can be seen.
If Linghu Manyue really killed people in Weiyang Palace, then the empress dowager would definitely blame the Marquis’s Mansion. At that time, the second wife would say that Linghu Manyue had only returned and had been teaching in the He family. The Marquis’s Mansion originally wanted to adopt this daughter, but it was the He family who finally broke the contract and caused the situation today. At that time, Linghu Manyue would be pushed out, and the He family, which had no foundation, would have to lose their teeth and swallow it.
"Hmph! What's the result? Isn't that girl succeeded? Now her wings are getting harder and harder! Look at you again!"
The old lady has not yet calmed down. No matter how she looks at the second lady, she feels uncomfortable.
"What the old lady said is that it is the wife's fault that all the mistakes are all the faults. Who would have thought that the stinky girl who came back from the small county town was so capable. Her wife underestimated her."
After hearing what my mother said, Linghu Pingxue curled her lips disdainfully, why did she underestimate her? The local bun is just a local bun! These times were just luck!
"Do you know that the old lady of the Xue family is not the biological mother of the Minister of Rites, so--" The old lady tasted a sip of tea, slowly put down the white jade cup, and lit up the second lady's eyes in one sentence.
"Old lady, so to say that - Xue Yamei is not her biological granddaughter anymore?"
"That's right." The old lady nodded.
Inexplicably, the second wife breathed a sigh of relief. But after thinking about it, what does this have to do with the old lady of the Xue family coming to find the old lady?
"The Minister of Rites was actually born to his father and the daughter of a small family. Because the woman's family was poor, she naturally couldn't join the Xue family. But the old man of the Xue family really liked the son, and just happened to be the first son of the old lady of the Xue family, who had just born, died, so she took the son outside and returned home. Only the second son of the Xue family was born to the old lady of the Xue family."
The old lady was talking about a past story. Originally, only a few people knew about the secret of the Xue family. But a few years ago, when Mrs. Xue brought someone to drive the woman out of Kyoto, she happened to be hit by the old lady. The old lady occasionally heard the conversation between Mrs. Xue and the woman. Although decades have passed and all her grandchildren have been around, Mrs. Xue has been looking for the biological mother of the Minister of Rites, but the Minister of Rites hid the woman very well. Mrs. Xue searched for her for half her life to find it. Naturally, she wanted the woman to disappear in front of her forever and would never come.
The second wife and Linghu Pingxue were stunned when they heard this. Unexpectedly, the seemingly low-key Xue family had such a shocking secret.
The Minister of Rites is not the eldest son of Mr. Xue.
"Old lady, then Mrs. Xue is here this time-" The second lady still didn't understand. The old lady and Mrs. Xue reached a tacit understanding on something. To be precise, the old lady grabbed the handle of Mrs. Xue.
A sure sneer flashed in the old lady's shrewd eyes, and she spoke coldly.
"The second son of the Xue family is the biological daughter of Mrs. Xue, but the only son of the second son is a fool. Now that fool is at the age of marriage-"
The old lady stopped when she said this and looked at the second lady with a cloudy look.
"That fool - Xue Qi?" The crazy fool of the Xue family suddenly flashed in front of the second wife's eyes, and her eyes suddenly lit up. I had to admire the old lady's intentions.
"Yes, since I keep that girl in trouble, I can't cure her for a while. If I marry her to the Xue family, someone will naturally cure her." The old lady used this trick to kill people with a knife.
The old lady of the Xue family can spend most of her life looking for someone. If the old lady saves her handle and asks her to deal with Linghu Manyue, the old lady of the Xue family will definitely spare no effort. Moreover, when Linghu Manyue has an accident in the Xue family in the future, the people in the Marquis's mansion will be picked up completely. Moreover, she married a fool, which will relieve the old lady's hatred!
When Linghu Pingxue heard this, she naturally thought it was a wonderful method, but—
"Grandmother, even if the daughter of the Marquis's mansion is not favored, she will not marry a fool. My father's side - I'm afraid she won't agree." Linghu Pingxue saw that her father felt guilty about Linghu Manyue, so she naturally wanted to find a good family for her, not the fool of the Xue family.
"Of course not now! But what if that fool makes a fuss in the Marquis' Mansion - to block Youyou's mouth, what's wrong?"
When the old lady said this, she sneered, picked up the white jade cup and tasted the fragrant tea. The sneer on the corner of her lips did not fade for a long time.
