"What are you afraid of? Let me ask you, how many people did Yin Suxin bring with her today?" Concubine Chu said again.
"It doesn't seem like much, but she is the Queen Mother after all. How can there be so few people she protects openly and secretly? Sister, let me tell you, what should I do now! What if Brother Su wants to divorce me?
?" Chu Liu wanted to persuade Concubine Chu not to do such a thing, so she wanted to change the topic.
"How dare he divorce you?"
However, Concubine Chu was determined, and after giving such a perfunctory answer, she vowed, "Even if she brought someone to protect her secretly, how could she compare to the Dragon Guards that the late emperor entrusted to me?
"You don't have to be afraid, Long Wuwei is very clean in his work. Otherwise, how could the incident twenty-four years ago be done so seamlessly?
"Besides, Yin Suxin is with Yu Jiujiu today. If I kill them all, no matter what I ask the emperor to do for me in the future, it will be very easy. When I am here, how dare Wen Su divorce you?
"Okay, if you are afraid, you don't need to follow me today. Go back and say a few soft words to Wen Su. He will be angry with you at most. We have been husband and wife for decades after all, so it won't be a big deal."
After Concubine Chu finished speaking, she put on her cloak again, turned around and left.
Seeing this, Chu Liu knew that he couldn't stop her, but when he thought about what she said, he felt that it made sense, so he took a look at the gate of Jiang Mansion, and then walked back to the Duke's Mansion.
At this time, everyone in the Jiang family theater was talking about this play.
Today's play is performed on such a small stage.
But tomorrow, it will definitely spread throughout the capital.
At this time, Queen Mother Yin sneered after watching the play and said: "These men seem to be smarter than the other, but sometimes they are very stupid and are played by a woman with ulterior motives.
, it’s really pitiful, pathetic, and hateful!”
When Yu Jiujiu heard her speaking sarcastically, she secretly thought, had the late emperor ever let her down like this before?
However, Yu Jiujiu would naturally not ask such words.
"Royal grandmother, Jiujiu doesn't understand." She suddenly said.
"Oh? What doesn't Xiao Jiu'er understand?" Hearing this, Queen Mother Yin quickly squeezed her cheeks and waited for her answer.
"This cousin, why didn't you steal the jade pendant earlier, ruin the female ghost's marriage, and marry this person as your first wife instead of waiting until the wedding night?" This is what Yu Jiujiu said after learning about Chu Ying's story.
, a mystery that has always been in my heart.
Obviously he could get the jade pendant long ago, so why didn't Chu Liu take action earlier and simply stop the marriage?
"Because, if it had been earlier, she wouldn't have dared!" Queen Mother Yin replied immediately.
She watched the play today and saw that it was aimed at the Duke of Yong's house.
Duke Yong Guo was an acquaintance of the Queen Mother when she was young.
If Chu Ying were still alive, he would only be seven years younger than the Queen Mother this year.
"Why don't you dare?" Yu Jiujiu asked again quickly.
"Because Chu Ying was the eldest daughter of Yong'an Marquis Mansion at that time."
Empress Dowager Yin no longer mentioned the play word by word, but directly mentioned the real prototype of the protagonist in the play, "At that time, the old Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou were still alive, and both of them were shrewd and very doting.
Chu Ying, and Chu Liu are only the daughters of the second brother-in-law. The second brother-in-law depends on the old Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou for their livelihood. How dare you snatch the bride under their noses?
"No matter how much Chu Liu wanted to do this, he only dared to do it secretly, and waited until the old Marquis and Mrs. Hou were old and no longer care about things - the most important thing is, until Chu Mian has established a firm position in the palace.
Heel had already gained the deep love of the late emperor, so he dared to come forward to kill Chu Ying and Chu Quan, and take away everything that originally belonged to the big house.
"What's more, if Chu Ying had been robbed of her marriage before she married Wen Su, Chu Ying could have married someone else and still lived peacefully for the rest of his life. How could he end up like this?
"Chu Ying died, and Chu Liu became the wife of the Duke of Yong.
"Chu Quan died, leaving only the cowardly and incompetent Chu Sheng in the Chu family to take over as the crown prince. Now that he is the Marquis of Yong'an, Chu Mian has established a foothold in the palace and became a favorite concubine, and the Chu family has become her bag.
These things are all carefully calculated step by step, so for Chu Mian's ambition, it must end like this."
Every word of Empress Dowager Yin was to the point.
Yu Jiujiu listened and kept nodding.
Things that I couldn't figure out before now have clear answers.
She thought for a while and said: "Is that Chu Sheng really so cowardly and incompetent? Why do you think he is already the Marquis of Yong'an, so he doesn't need to be afraid of his second wife?"
"He is a coward. This is second. The most important thing is that he is incompetent. He does not even have the ability to protect himself. Without Chu Mian, he would not be able to sit safely in the position of Marquis of Yong'an. The second brother of the Chu family has no son, only
The three Chu Mian sisters are all girls, so the best way to control the Chu family is to kill the capable Chu Quan and capture the incompetent Chu Sheng."
Queen Mother Yin explained.
"Royal Grandmother, I understand, I understand everything." At this time, Yu Jiujiu said obediently.
"Xiao Jiu'er is really smart, she can tell at once!" Empress Dowager Yin smiled and pinched her little face happily.
"Chu Mian is so ambitious, Jiujiu is worried that now that she has control of the Chu family, she still wants more." Yu Jiujiu thought for a while, and couldn't help but have a trace of worry on his eyebrows, "If she is doing what she is doing now, Jiujiu feels,
I'm afraid her next goal is to control daddy."
"If she really thinks so, then her next plan must be to get rid of the Ai family." After hearing this, the Queen Mother Yin frowned and thought, and a sharp edge flashed in her eyes.
"And Jiujiu, she must also dislike Jiujiu, because Jiujiu ruined her good fortune last time!" Yu Jiujiu pouted.
Saying this, some people did not take Concubine Chu to heart.
"Don't worry, Xiao Jiu'er, as long as Ai Jia is here, nothing will happen to Xiao Jiu'er!" In this regard, Queen Mother Yin also vowed.
The grandfather and grandson were talking.
By this time, it was already getting late.
Each family stayed at Jiang's house until they had dinner, and then they left one after another.
Yu Jiujiu was very interested and took Queen Mother Yin to look at the courtyard where Jiang Youyou used to live. It was not until the sky turned dark that she finally left Jiang Mansion with unfulfilled thoughts and prepared to return to the palace.
The grandfather and grandson got on the carriage and walked along the street, passing through the lively crowd, and gradually arrived at a secluded alley.
Yu Jiujiu was a little tired and dozed off in the arms of Queen Mother Yin.
However, suddenly, the little purple dragon emerged from her sleeve and said with a wary expression: "Master, you are in danger!"
One sentence immediately scared away all the sleepy Yu Jiujiu!
