"Miss Yu, are you really so vicious that you even want to covet the things that belong to your dead cousin?" A concubine who was watching with cold eyes sneered and scolded her repeatedly.
"I...no, I didn't..." Yu Lanxue's face turned red.
"When Miss Yu said no, did she think it was not a golden shadow, or did she think you didn't use a golden shadow?" Yu Xijiao asked in return.
The accounts of Zhengyuanhou Mansion may not be clear, but the accounts of Dieyu Pavilion must be clear. There will be no Jinying in Zhengyuanhou Mansion, but there will be in Anhe Dachang Princess Mansion.
After my grandmother found out that she was coming to Beijing, she specially ordered two boxes of golden shadows. There were accounts to check and evidence to prove.
Yu Xijiao had sworn before that there would be a note on the gift list she accepted, but in fact it was just a pretext. Yu Lanxue was more difficult to deal with than Ning. Since she took out the embroidery pieces, how could she leave any traces on herself?
, only such inconspicuous things would catch her off guard.
"Empress, I really don't know what happened to Jin Ying. My sister Lan Xuan just passed away. I have no intention of washing up and wash my face with tears every day. My mother saw that I have been depressed, so I asked my daughter to go out for a few days to quiet down, and then returned.
There is a message from the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion, and I dare not ignore it. I just freshened up a little and entered the palace today. All the things I used were prepared by my mother."
Yu Lanxue bowed down with tears in her eyes.
Sure enough!
Ning was ruthless and vicious, and each of the daughters she gave birth to was even more cruel than the last. Now she pushed Ning out to take the blame without hesitation. The matter of burial objects ranged from beating with a stick to beheading. Yu Lanxue did not hesitate to do anything for herself.
Regardless of Ning's situation, like mother, like daughter.
Yu Xi lowered her head to hide the ridicule in her eyes.
"What did your mother do?" The queen's eyes fell on Yu Lanxue and she said softly.
"What kind of peace of mind does a mother have when she buries her daughter with funeral objects?"
"I have never heard of such a thing. Usually, you can use it only when you want to use it." The two concubines who looked on with cold eyes couldn't help but said.
If they didn't know about Yu Lanxue's hookup with the emperor, they might really believe it and think that the woman in front of them was really innocent. The frightened eyes and pitiful look in their eyes all meant that she had been wronged.
However, this is an illusion. How could it be good to enter the palace and seduce the emperor's women?
The concubines were jealous and envious.
"Queen, I believe that my mother is also unaware and must have been deceived by her subordinates. If my mother knew the whereabouts of this box of powder, she would definitely punish her severely. My mother was punished by my grandmother before and she kept lying on the bed.
You can't move, the third aunt is in charge of the house now."
Yu Lanxue's tears fell one after another, and she burst into tears: "Queen, although this matter was done by the palace, my daughter must be a junior. Whether it is my mother or my aunt's fault, it is my daughter's fault.
If you make a mistake, please punish me, the Queen."
These words were spoken very cleverly. First, it was stated that the matter was not her fault, and it was also stated that the final cause and effect of the matter would still fall on her, and she was willing to take the responsibility even if she was wronged.
He is both aggrieved and responsible, which makes people feel good.
After the panic, Yu Lanxue's answer was so precise, which was really amazing.
"You said your third aunt did this?" the queen asked.
"I don't know, I, I... I have been in a daze these past few days because of my second sister's incident. I really don't know many things in the house. I have been away for a while before, so I don't know what happened in the house recently, but
I dare not get away with it, because I belong to my house, so I am at fault."
Yu Lanxue spoke more and more skillfully. In a few words, she pushed the matter away from her, looking dignified and calm and willing to take responsibility.
"Empress, I have something to report." Yu Xijiao said, interrupting Yu Lanxue's drama.
"Say." The queen nodded. Now it sounds like this matter is really the fault of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion. The most likely person is the third lady of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
"Empress, I am very suspicious of the character of Mrs. Yu's biological mother, Mrs. Ning." Yu Xijiao raised her head calmly and said.
"Why? You don't belong to the same Yu clan, are you the same clan?" the queen asked in surprise. Regardless of whether she believed what Yu Lanxue said, at least the queen's current attitude was extremely fair.
"Empress, my daughter has not been back in Beijing for long, but during this period of time, this Mrs. Ning has repeatedly tried to harm our Xuanping Marquis Mansion, not only my daughter, but also my mother and second sister."
Yu Xijiao said slowly.
Since Yu Lanxue said so, she will give it another push...
Yu Lanxue wanted to go up and give Yu Xijiao a hard slap to shut her up.
But she knew that she could do nothing now but defend. She didn't even know what Yu Xijiao was going to say next. It seemed that every word Yu Xijiao said would catch her off guard.
Why is this matter related to Qian and Yu Yuxi again?
"Empress, on the third day after my daughter came to the capital, she went to the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion to congratulate her. However, she was assassinated and almost died. The final investigation revealed that it was a woman from the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion who had committed the crime, but she could not be found.
Later, I thought about it, and I really couldn’t figure out why my daughter, who had just entered the capital, was in a dead end. But recently, my daughter thought of..."
Yu Xi said softly.
"What do you think of?" The queen had heard about Yu Xijiao and also knew that Yu Xijiao had saved the crown prince of Qi at that time. For this reason, the queen specially issued a decree to reward Yu Xijiao.
"I think I saw something that day." Yu Xijiao said with a heavy face.
"What happened?" The queen's face also darkened, and everyone's eyes fell on Yu Xijiao, just because something big happened in the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion that day.
Yu Lanxuan died, and something happened to Yu Lanyan's marriage.
"I heard Yu Lanyan, the third girl from Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, and her maid were walking through the corridor behind the rockery where the court ladies were, and they started talking." Yu Xijiao said slowly.
Yu Lanxue was stunned for a moment, then suddenly woke up and suddenly screamed: "Yu Xijiao, you are talking nonsense."
"Miss Yu, are you talking nonsense? It's up to the Empress and other empresses to decide that Miss Yu herself is a victim of crime, so there is no need to jump out so hastily. Or is it that Miss Yu knew that your sister was pregnant at that time?
What Huan said? You even know about my assassination?"
Yu Xijiao asked back word for word, her gaze falling intensely on Yu Lanxue.
Yu Lanxue's eyes should be as clear as water, but she could see something cold to the bone. Yu Lanxue's hands couldn't control their trembling, and she couldn't control her desire to scream, but she understood that she couldn't say anything.
He shook his head with difficulty: "Miss Yu, I just hope you will tell the truth and don't make unnecessary assumptions or exaggerate."
"Miss Yu, you should tell the truth in front of the Queen." Yu Xijiao said calmly, "On that day, your sister actually only said one sentence, and the maid also answered one, and then left. Because I
When I heard this, I panicked, accidentally stepped on a stone, almost fell down, and then ran away in a hurry, not knowing that I might fall into the eyes of your sister."
"What did they say?" A palace concubine couldn't wait any longer. When she heard about this, she wanted to kill someone and silence them.
The news about Yu Lanyan had spread to the palace, and everyone despised Yu Lanyan.
"Reporting to the Empress, I only heard Yu Lanyan say, 'Hurry up, mother urges me to go back to the house and wait.' The maid said, 'Congratulations, Miss Three, for getting your wish.'"
"My maid was confused after hearing this and didn't understand what it meant. She just felt inexplicably uneasy. She was frightened and just wanted to leave, but she didn't want to cause death for herself. In fact, she still doesn't understand why she did this.
It will bring disaster." Yu Xijiao said.
This may sound like nothing at first, but if you taste it carefully, you will immediately feel that there is something very wrong.
Yu Lanyan was pregnant at the time, and no one knows who the child in her belly is now. After Yu Lanyan died, all the secrets were buried.
Regarding Chu Zihan's evaluation, there are many different opinions.
But now the sentence "getting what you want" means that Yu Lanyan married Prince Xin Kangbo because of what she had in mind, so the child in Yu Lanyan's belly is Chu Zihan's?
With a bang, many people couldn't help but whisper to their besties. This incident was so shocking. This was almost proof that Chu Zihan and Yu Lanyan were having an affair.
Thinking more carefully, is it true that no one in the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion knew about the affair between Yu Lanyan and Chu Zihan? At least Ning should have known about it, so she allowed her daughter to get what she wanted.
Regarding the fact that Yu Lanxuan still had a breath of air at that time, and deliberately continued the marriage between the two houses, allowing Yu Lanyan to marry into the Xinkangbo Mansion, few people in the family believed that at that time, even if there was still a breath of life after coming down from the fire, Yu Lanxuan was concerned about it.
Isn't it really a joke that she is not her biological mother, but she cares about the marriage of a cousin, and also thinks about the relationship between the two houses?
Because after hearing this, Yu Xijiao’s assassination became even more real. If Yu Xijiao hadn’t heard things that she shouldn’t have heard, how could anyone want to kill Yu Xijiao, who just came to Beijing?
How come the daughter of Marquis Xuanping was assassinated in the Marquis Zhengyuan’s mansion?
But is this true?
Yu Xijiao didn't lie?
"Empress, I misunderstood my mother about this matter at that time. For this reason, my mother had a quarrel with Mrs. Ning. However, there is no evidence. I never thought of this matter before. I really thought it was just an accident. I unexpectedly went to the Marquis of Zhengyuan Mansion.
Someone assassinated my daughter, and she almost died in the accident. Later, the second sister fell ill, and my mother no longer accompanied Mrs. Ning to handle the funeral."
Yu Xijiao connected the cause and effect of the incident.
Yu Lanxue's face changed drastically, her vest was soaked with sweat, and her voice was trembling: "Yu... Third girl, you... you... can't say nonsense..."
Her face was as white as snow, without a trace of blood, but she still clenched her teeth: "When you speak... you have to provide evidence. Do you... do you have any evidence to prove that what you said is true... It's not that you have any ill intentions towards our family.
speculation?"
Yu Xijiao took a deep breath: "Don't worry, Miss Yu, everything I said has evidence and can be investigated clearly. I know that Miss Yu doesn't know anything about the things in the house.
You know, it’s not your fault, what I want to talk about now is your mother...Mrs. Ning."
Yu Lanxue had just repeatedly expressed her innocence and that she knew nothing, but now Yu Xijiao used these words to silence her!
