Chapter 136 The Heart of the Most Poisonous Woman
Chapter 136 The most poisonous woman’s heart (third update)
That's why she took the risk to plead with Liu He when Liu He visited Liu Xu. She thought Liu He would protect Liu Xu, after all, he was his own flesh and blood.
But she never would have imagined that Liu He would maintain his trust in Mrs. Liu in this way, not caring about her years of caring for Liu Silang, and order her to be executed.
After the news came out, Nalanjing returned to the commander's house and discussed the matter with Gu Bai.
What was expected, not to mention that Chu Hong had no evidence to identify Madam Liu, even if there was evidence, Liu He would choose to turn a blind eye.
Compared with Liu Xu and Fang Wenjing, Mrs. Liu's natal family, the Marquis of Zhenbei, was his biggest helper. How could he let Mrs. Liu and the Marquis of Zhenbei feel cold because of the insignificant Fang mother and son?
However, he immediately had Chu Hong executed, which still surprised Nalanjing.
It seems that Fang Wenjing's weight in Liu He's heart is nothing more than this.
While thinking, she picked up the hot tea on the table and said: "Fang Xuelin said that Fang Wenjing is not as simple as it seems. Chu Hong is dead. I believe she will receive the news soon. Let's see what she does next."
Gu Bai sat next to her holding a long knife, his cold eyes filled with indifference: "So what, after Liu He gets the Fang family out of the Criminal Department, will Fang Wenjing still care about the death of a maid?"
The Ministry of Punishment has been moving very quickly recently. I believe that it won't be long before the Minister of Punishment will present the evidence to the emperor and ask Emperor Tianshun to release the Fang family without charges.
Nalanjing chuckled and knocked on the table with one hand: "The Fang family probably won't be able to get out."
A trace of surprise flashed across Gu Bai's face, what did she do again?
Nalanjing held the tea cup in his hand, with an unknown smile on his lips.
The news that Nanny Li brought out today was not only Chu Hong's death, but also another news, Mrs. Liu took action.
Thirteen years ago, Mrs. Liu finally became pregnant again after giving birth to her eldest son and daughter. She wanted to add another son to the Liu family. Liu He was busy with official duties and rarely doted on the concubine in the backyard, but during that time he often stayed out at night.
, or when he returned late at night, Mrs. Liu asked someone to check and found out that he had raised an outside wife.
Men have always shown themselves to be flirtatious when in officialdom, and having an outhouse is not a big deal at all. Although Madam Liu was depressed, she did not have an attack. She just made people stare at the outhouse secretly. It may be a coincidence, or it may be due to worries.
, in short, the fetus in Mrs. Liu’s belly stopped when she was five months old.
When she learned that the stillbirth was the day when Liu Xiang welcomed the foreign concubine into the house, she was given the title of Mrs. Liu Si. Although Mrs. Liu was angry, Liu Xiang had discussed it with her, the head mistress, beforehand.
There is no other choice but to make generous arrangements for concubinage.
As a result, after drinking Fang Wenjing’s tea that day, I saw blood stains on my pants when I returned home. I was worried about miscarriage and asked a doctor to take a pulse, only to find out that the fetus had been inactive for more than half a month.
Mrs. Liu has always taken a pulse every three to five days since she became pregnant. However, she became too lazy after she was one month old and took a pulse once every half month, but she didn't expect...
This news was like a bolt from the blue to Mrs. Liu. Under the bad news, she endured the grief and brought out the fetus. The five-month-old fetus had already taken shape and was a boy. Mrs. Liu cried heartbrokenly.
Mrs. Liu Si happened to be found out to be pregnant. In fact, she had been found out before entering the mansion, so Prime Minister Liu welcomed her into the mansion and gave her a birthright.
Madam Liu had just experienced the pain of losing her son, and saw that Prime Minister Liu stayed in the fourth lady's yard for half of the month. She was obviously a concubine, but because of her favor, the food and clothing expenses were almost more than that of her aunt.
Mrs. Liu then thought about the neglect she received from Prime Minister Liu when she was pregnant. She had never been wronged like this in her smooth life. She immediately plotted against Mrs. Liu Si's belly, but she did not expect that the child was still born safely. However, because of her
Calculated, the child was born weak and weak, but it still made Mrs. Liu feel comfortable.
Every time she saw Mrs. Liu Si crying because she was worried about her children, she felt so happy.
It was precisely because of knowing this that Nalanjing offered a plan to Nanny Li and plotted against Chu Hong.
Now that Chu Hong is dead, Mrs. Liu must have guessed that her original plan was exposed. She was wary of Mrs. Liu's fourth wife, Fang. How could she let the Fang family come out?
Only by confirming the charges against the Fang family can the relationship between Prime Minister Liu and Mrs. Liu Si be severed. Mrs. Liu has no reason not to take action against the Fang family.
"..."
After hearing this, Gu Bai held the long knife in his arms, his starry eyes closed, and the corner of his lips twitched slightly.
After a while, he held back a sentence: "Sure enough, the most poisonous woman's heart."
Nalanjing put the tea cup in her hand lightly and glanced at him: "Are you talking about Mrs. Liu or... me?" She had a smile on her face.
Rong Xuan also looked at Gu Bai, leaning back on the chair and making no sound.
"..." Gu Bai seemed to feel the contempt from the king, disdain and danger.
Gu Bai faked a smile: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not treating people right."
"..." Nalanjing didn't mind either.
There was a sly smile on her face, and she was a little curious about what Mrs. Liu would do. If the fire was not burning bright enough, Nanny Li would probably help to add more fire...
—
Aunt Li grabbed the medicine from the prescription and went back, asking the medicine boy in the kitchen to boil the package. The maid served Liu Silang and drank it, and the high fever went away that night.
When the news came from over there, Nanny Li helped Mrs. Liu to go to bed. While untying her hair, she said distressedly: "The fourth young master has been sick these days, and the eldest lady has been busy taking care of her. She can't even sleep.
I couldn't sleep well, I had a headache and didn't bother to call a doctor, but I ended up with this kind of suspicion, alas..."
Mrs. Liu closed her eyes, then opened them suddenly: "That bitch Fang must know something, otherwise Chu Hong, a little girl, wouldn't dare to ask for help from the Prime Minister."
Aunt Li looked surprised: "Madam, do you mean that Mrs. Fang knew about that incident all along?"
Mrs. Liu: "Maybe I didn't know before, but I must know something now. Otherwise, how could Chu Hong dare to say such things?"
Aunt Li looked suddenly enlightened: "Madam, if you say so, I understand..."
She rubbed Mrs. Liu's shoulders nervously.
Mrs. Liu suddenly sneered: "Why, are you still afraid of Mr. Fang?"
Mrs. Liu asked Grandma Li to do this in the first place.
Grandma Li shook her head, but said: "I am worried that Mr. Fang will have an affair with the Prime Minister... I don't want you, Madam, to suffer this kind of injustice."
Aunt Li has been with Mrs. Liu for many years. When she married into the Liu family, she had four personal maids, two died, and two were no longer useful. Aunt Li was the one she bought from outside and was trained by her.
Her right-hand man is also the person she trusts most over the years.
Hearing her say such words, Mrs. Liu's face flashed with a cold light: "Don't worry, mama, no one in the Liu family can make me suffer. My brother-in-law once told me that I will not tolerate anyone who makes me unhappy.
You can make her disappear."
