Li Ruoshui knew that Mrs. Pingjinhou would not have a good impression of her because she had disturbed the marriage between the Pingjin Marquis Mansion and the Wen family. However, her current rage was still beyond Li Ruoshui's expectation, and she was even a little frightened to see her.

He simply pretended to be scared and his whole body trembled, making him feel as pitiable as he wanted.

Even the sisters of the Li family who had plotted against Li Ruoshui seemed to feel a little bit unbearable when they saw her like this. Only Mrs. Pingjin Hou was unmoved, but she did not directly beat her like she did with her son. Firstly, Her upbringing doesn't allow it. Secondly, if she hits Li Ruoshui now, she is really at a disadvantage. But the clenched fist is enough to prove that she has to endure it very hard.

The Lady Hou Shizi of Pingjin who was following her naturally didn't have the slightest fondness for Li Ruoshui. After all, this woman tried to seduce her husband in the same way. She didn't mind that her husband had concubines and had concubines, but the identities of those people were always different. Like Li Ruoshui, Ruoshui is like this, a man of good birth, good looks, and talent, but he is willing to humble himself, and his heart is more dissolute than a man. How can Mrs. Pingjin Hou Shizi have any good impression of such a person? However, he is just like this The woman, no matter what the reason for all this happened today, was afraid that she would have to enter the gate of the Pingjin Marquis Mansion, and a cold feeling flashed deep in her eyes.

I hope that after marrying into the Marquis of Pingjin, she can stay in peace and not be the same as before.

Mrs. Pingjin Hou Shizi is not worried about Li Ruoshui continuing to seduce her husband. Her husband is not a brainless person like his uncle. If Li Ruoshui really dares to get in front of him, he can tear her face off and throw her to the ground. Trample her so that she will never recover.

Mrs. Prince Pingjin just hopes to live a peaceful life.

And Hua Baichen was extremely nervous, as if he was afraid that his mother would do something to hurt his sweetheart.

Perhaps out of sight, Mrs. Pingjin Hou withdrew her gaze, turned around and accidentally caught a glimpse of her son's expression that had not yet calmed down. She was so angry that she really wanted to give him another slap to wake him up.

It is not that Hua Baichen has never been taught a lesson by her own mother, but this is the first time that she has been so angry. The last time she and Wen Renjia broke off their engagement, although she was extremely angry, it was not as serious as now. Hua Baichen also He knew that the nature of the matter was different, so he shrank his head, like a quail. Looking at it like that, it seemed that as long as he didn't do anything to his sweetheart, he could deal with him no matter what.

Mrs. Pingyang Hou was so angry that she almost wanted to take medicine. Seeing this, Mrs. Pingjin Hou Shizi hurriedly pushed her brother-in-law aside so as not to be an eyesore. It took her mother-in-law's body a long time to look like a normal person. It’s too much, but this medicine is not good at all. If you get so angry that you get sick, that would be terrible.

Mrs. Pingjin Hou, perhaps in order to divert her attention, first expressed her apology to Mrs. Xu Guogong. Regardless of what happened, it was her son who messed up and did something embarrassing, which caused Duke Xu to be implicated. Of course, this is under the condition that this matter has nothing to do with Duke Xu's Palace. If it is later known that it is related to Duke Xu's Palace, this attitude will probably not be the same.

Mrs. Pingjin Hou's attitude was low-key, and then she requested to call together the people who might be involved - obviously no one thought that Hua Baichen and Li Ruoshui would get together spontaneously - Mrs. Xu Guogong's Crown Prince agreed without saying a word. , As for Mrs. Li hasn't arrived yet? It doesn't matter. With her as a middleman, she has little relationship with both parties and will not be biased. On the contrary, because the possibility of "sisters fighting each other" is very high, it will be against them. That Mrs. Li was somewhat sympathetic.

Start the trial from the beginning, starting with Hua Baichen. His attendants will never be able to escape. After all, Li Ruoshui's letter cannot be handed to him directly, it will definitely pass through the hands of his servants.

Normally, I might be able to do things for Hua Baichen in a clumsy way, but the situation is different now, and I dare not hide it.

"Where's the letter?" There might be something quite important in it.

Hua Baichen hesitated and said that he had left it at home.

Without saying a word, Prince Hua asked the people around him to get it.

As for Xu Guogong's mansion, no problem was found no matter how hard they tried, because there were a lot of guests today, the servants were very busy, and there was almost no time to leave alone, so the last and most likely problem was with Li Ruoshui.

side.

Mrs. Pingjin Hou has calmed down a lot now. She did not rush to ask Li Ruoshui for questioning. She focused on the three sisters of the Li family. She didn't ask anything, just looked at them with a look and scrutiny, maybe because of a guilty conscience.

The three of them shrank a little and couldn't help but move closer, as if they were hugging each other for a sense of security.

At this moment, Mrs. Li hurried over. Compared to Mrs. Pingjin Hou, she was not only angry but also sad. Her excellent daughter deserved the best man in the world, and according to her original idea

, the daughter will either marry back to her natal family or marry into the royal family. The former has fallen, and the best choice is the latter. Although the husband and father-in-law do not want to get involved in the battle for the legitimate son, in addition to the prince, there are also the emperor's brothers and

Nephew? He's either a prince or a county king. Although most of them have empty names, there are some who need to be reused, and there happens to be someone who is about the same age as Li Ruoshui.

All kinds of calculations turned out to be so completely unsuccessful, how could Mrs. Li bear it.

Mrs. Li also didn't know the whole story yet, but she knew who slept with her daughter, so she pounced on Hua Baichen and beat her up.

Even if he was plotted by others, in the end it was him who bullied an innocent girl, who was definitely his mother-in-law. Therefore, even if his nails were scratched on his face, Hua Baichen could only bear it.

The thing happened suddenly, and she was unable to stop it immediately. When Mrs. Pingjinhou saw the blood stains on her son's face, she became angry. Even though Mrs. Pingjinhou was ill, she had a gentle and gentle temperament, but she was usually

She often moved her hands and feet, and when she really started to use her hands, Mrs. Li was born as a general, but she was really weak and weak, so she was no match for her.

Therefore, when Mrs. Li was slapped and knocked to the ground, the bystanders were stunned. After a while, they helped Mrs. Li up and stopped Mrs. Pingjinhou.

Mrs. Li was also stunned by Mrs. Pingjin Hou. When she came back to her senses, she was stunned, "You dare to hit me, you dare to hit me? The little beast you raised bullied my daughter, you old beast still dare to attack me?"

It sounds like they are all well-educated people, Mrs. Li said, but...

Mrs. Pingjin Hou's face was gloomy, "Not to mention that we haven't figured out what's going on. Just your shameless and flirtatious fox, on my Marquis's birthday, he got involved between the Ming family girl and Prince Cheng.

, ruined someone else's marriage, and then came to foment discord between my son and his fiancée, ruining my son's good marriage, shameless thing, I didn't tear her apart, it was already for the sake of your Li family, even if

It was today that your shameless daughter delivered a letter to my son, asking him to go out. Who knows if it was her who sent it to my door for my son to sleep with? I was worried that my son had touched something dirty!"

Well, those who originally wanted to stand with Mrs. Pingjin Hou quietly retreated. This is not something to be trifled with.

Li Ruoshui, who was originally shrinking in the room, had simply washed and dressed with the help of the maid, but now she couldn't shrink anymore. She wanted to marry into the Pingjin Marquis Mansion. If she continued like this, she would wait until she got married.

What will happen to her after that? Before, Li Ruoshui could still have the confidence to hold Hua Baichen and let him stand by her side at all times. However, Hua Baichen was beaten first by his brother and then by his mother.

After the beating, as well as all the behaviors since "waking up", it is proved that this man is probably unreliable.

Li Ruoshui was supported by the maid and stood at the door, looking like a bolt from the blue, as if the blow was too great and she couldn't bear it. Her face was pale and her body was shaking. The maid was frightened and said, "Girl, girl..."

The voice was not quiet, so it naturally attracted everyone's attention.

Mrs. Li felt very distressed when she saw her like that. She stepped forward quickly and said, "Ruoshui, Ruoshui, my son..."

Li Ruoshui looked at Mrs. Pingjin Hou, her lips trembled, and she kept shaking her head, "No, I didn't..."

Mrs. Pingjin Hou looked cold, with sarcasm in her eyes.

Li Ruoshui looked sideways at Mrs. Li with tears streaming down her face, "Mom, I don't have it, I really don't have it..."

"It's nothing. Just make it clear. Don't be afraid. Mom is here and she will make the decision for you." Mrs. Li said softly.

"I haven't written any letters, really, and I haven't asked Mr. Hua out..."

Hua Baichen's eyes shrank, he couldn't believe it...

"I was also surprised when I saw Mr. Hua before. Then, later..." Li Ruoshui couldn't say any more. She cried uncontrollably and grabbed her mother's clothes. The tips of her fingers turned white and her body was shaking so much.

obvious.

Mrs. Li hugged her, feeling extremely distressed and said, "Mom, I believe you and will find out the matter."

Hua Baichen paused at his feet. He recalled Ruoshui's expression when he saw him. He looked really surprised. What they said later didn't mention this incident at all. So, Ruoshui didn't ask him out at all?

For a moment, Hua Baichen was in a state of confusion.

Prince Hua's gaze fell on Hua Baichen, his eyes narrowed slightly, "What's going on with the letter?"

"Brother, I, I don't know, the person who sent the letter did say that it was Miss Li who sent it, but when Miss Li saw me, she seemed to be unaware." Hua Baichen said hurriedly.

"So you ran out of the house without knowing anything, and ignored the abnormality when we met? You are really good."

Hua Baichen wanted to argue, but he didn't know what to say when he opened his mouth. He also knew that he was stupid.

It's clear that he was so confused that because he was related to this woman from the Li family, he seemed to have no brains.

So the key now is the letter. While waiting, Mrs. Li wants to attack again. Mrs. Pingjinhou is not a vegetarian. "I want Li Ruoshui to become a monk and become a sister-in-law. If Mrs. Li has anything to say, just say it."

Mrs. Li swallowed back her words. In this kind of thing, it is always the woman who suffers. If the Pingjin Marquis Mansion really doesn't recognize it...

Fortunately, the letter was quickly retrieved and opened. The content on it was simple and vague, and it was to ask Hua Baichen to come out.

The letter was brought to Li Ruoshui, "We will know if it is yours by checking the handwriting."

"Madam, this handwriting does look a bit like a slave's, but it really wasn't written by our girl." Li Ruoshui's maid said.

"Yours?" Everyone looked at the maid with doubts in their eyes.

Li Ruoshui lowered his head and bit his lip, "My handwriting is really bad. In the past, whatever I had to write was basically written by maids." Li Ruoshui created a character for himself as a talented woman, but this handwriting was not readily available.

She was tired of practicing calligraphy, and every few years, the calligraphy did not gain much popularity, and it did not match her personality, and there was simply no contact. When she had to say it...

"The most talented woman in the past thousand years, her handwriting is so ugly that she needs a maid to write it for her, haha!"

Li Ruoshui wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in. He looked so embarrassed to see others.

"A ruler may be longer or an inch may be shorter. Who said that talented people must write well?" Mrs. Li immediately protected her.

Mrs. Pingjin Hou ignored her and looked at Li Ruoshui's maid, "Is it similar to your words?"

"Yes, madam, it looks like eighty-nine points. At first glance, I really thought I wrote it myself. I was shocked just now. It's just that I have my own little habits when writing these words.

So it’s different.”

In order to prove it, I also voluntarily wrote the contents of the letter again.

The final result is that it is indeed as the maid said, with just a slight difference. It is obvious whether the maid was deliberate when writing. Therefore, because this letter is directed to Li Ruoshui, there is a high probability that someone else copied it.

, it is rare for a girl in an inner house to have her handwriting leaked out, but Li Ruoshui is different, she is a talented girl, and the maid ghostwriting for her also means that it is normal for her to be exiled.

Therefore, the range of people who copied this is very large.

However, both Mrs. Xu Guogong’s Crown Prince and Mrs. Pingjin Hou are both suspects and need further proof...

The words said that anyone can copy them, and the maid spoke again, "Madam, my handwriting is just ordinary, and it will inevitably lose the girl's face outside. Therefore, when the girl writes poems at home, the servant writes for her. Outside,

But many people are willing to record it on their behalf, so there should not be many people who know the slave's handwriting." As she said that, the maid's face turned a little pale, obviously thinking of something.

Mrs. Pingjin Hou said in a nonchalant manner, "So it's your Li family's own problem."

Mrs. Li's face darkened, but she did not refute because this was the most likely possibility.

Next to him, Prince Hua took the letter and came closer to smell it. "Just now I felt that the smell was familiar. It was tribute ink. The emperor rewarded part of it to the courtiers. I remember that the Li family should have a share."
