"Madam, the old lady is back." A woman hurriedly came in to report.
"Come back?" Mrs. Yu sat up. The acupuncture before was good, and her body had relaxed a little in the past two days. Now she was lying on the couch in the back room to rest.
When the old lady left before, it would take five or six days to come back in such a state, if not ten days. Now that she came back so quickly, could something have happened?
"I'm back. I'm already coming to you." The mother-in-law said hurriedly.
"Why are you back at this time?" Mrs. Yu said to herself, waving her hand for her mother-in-law to go down, and at the same time calling for someone to tidy up for her.
When the old lady came over, Mrs. Yu was already lying on the bed in the back room again, and a maid led the old lady to Mrs. Yu's bed.
When two people meet, they will not deal with each other if asked. In the past, at the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion, they could not meet without meeting, and just sent a servant to run over. Now that they come here in such a grand manner, it seems that something is going on, and Mrs. Yu is also nervous.
Lying on the bed, he watched with half-closed eyes as the old lady sat down on the chair in front of the bed.
"I have something to discuss with you. Please leave the servants." The old lady said with a serious face.
"Is there something that I can't say in front of others? I am an old and weak person now, and I can't have anyone around me to wait on me." Mrs. Yu refused without thinking.
"You don't think I will attack you directly, do you?" The old lady raised her lips mockingly, "You have done many bad things, are you afraid that others will do the same to you?"
"Don't talk nonsense, just say what you have to say." Mrs. Yu's face darkened, "Don't say anything that is true or not."
"I have something to ask you, and I also want to know what you are thinking in your heart. If you feel that the people in front of you are your confidants and it is impossible for them to be leaked, then you can keep them all. Anyway, these people...even if
It doesn’t matter if you know something, right?” The old lady gently touched the corners of her lips and said bluntly, “What I want to ask is about Lan Xuan.”
There are many people in the room, how could they all be confidants?
Mrs. Yu waved her hands solemnly, and the people around her got off one after another. Finally, a woman looked around and didn't move her feet.
The old lady also waved her hand, and everyone around her withdrew. Seeing that there was still one Mrs. Yu left by her side, she suddenly smiled; "Doesn't she also know everything about Lan Xuan?"
The mother-in-law's face changed with fear: "Old... I don't know, I don't know anything."
After saying that, he bowed to Mrs. Yu: "Mrs. Mrs., this old slave is in the yard. If you have anything to do, just give me an order loudly."
After speaking, he glanced at the old lady warily, but still withdrew with fear.
Seeing that Mrs. Yu wanted to stop her, the old lady sneered: "You don't think I don't want to live anymore, so I really want to do something to you, do you?"
"Am I afraid of you?" Mrs. Yu said in a cold voice after stopping what she was about to say.
Everyone retreated, leaving only Mrs. Yu and the old lady in the room.
"Ms. Li, tell me how Lan Xuan died. Does it really have nothing to do with Yu Lanyan, the second wife? Did Yu Lanyan kill Lan Xuan and replace her, but you, the grandmother, ignored her and just watched?
Lan Xuan was harmed by Yu Lanyan?" The old lady spoke aggressively.
Although Mrs. Yu guessed that the old lady knew something, she felt panicked when she heard her say it face to face. However, she must have experienced a lot of things. She was slightly frightened and immediately retorted: "What are you talking about again?"
, everyone knows how Lan Xuan died, it was just an accident."
"Accident? What kind of accident can cause two masters to die in a fire? So many people in Zhengyuan Hou Mansion are dead, but no one goes to rescue them?" The old lady asked with a sneer, her eyes tightened.
Looking closely at Mrs. Yu, "Do you believe this when I say it?"
"Whether you believe it or not, this is what happened." Mrs. Yu spread her hands and said that was the case, and Mrs. Yu would not make any more trouble.
Mrs. Yu took a deep breath and said, "Do you know what I heard in Xia Qingguan?"
"What did you hear?" Mrs. Yu's heart skipped a beat.
"It is said that you were the one who harmed Lan Xuan and Anshi, you were the one who allowed your own granddaughter to harm Boyang's wife and daughter, it was you who wanted to rob Boyang of his title, it was you who... wanted to rob everything in the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion.
The old lady glared at Mrs. Yu angrily, pointed at Mrs. Yu with trembling fingers, and cursed, "You... are really so ungrateful."
"Where did you listen to? It's like the wind is like the rain. It's like this now and it was like this back then. If it weren't for your temperament, your eldest brother wouldn't be like this with you back then."
Mrs. Yu regained her composure and showed sarcasm on her face: "Outsiders can say whatever they say. What do those who are jealous of our Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion say in secret have anything to do with us? We don't need to tell others what we do.
, as long as you have a clear conscience. You came back in a hurry today just to tell me this kind of thing? Then you are really... being wronged."
Mrs. Yu said unhurriedly, and even scolded the old lady in order to retreat.
The angry old lady turned pale, then took a deep breath, her expression calmed down again, and sneered: "Ms. Li, I'm not here to discuss the past with you today. I only ask Lan Xuan and
Regarding An's matter, everyone in Xia Qing Temple said that there is something wrong with the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion."
"That's what they said, what does it have to do with me?" Mrs. Yu said disdainfully.
"Okay, okay, they have nothing to do with you. Now I have nothing to do with you." The old lady said coldly.
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Yu glanced at the old lady, very satisfied that she could seize the initiative. She couldn't fight with herself back then, but now she can fight with herself?
It's because I was unwell before, but now I'm feeling better. Why would I let this damn woman in front of me take advantage of me again? It doesn't matter if I go back to my hometown, I can do what Ning said, give me chronic poison, and check it out.
It was this dead old woman who sent her directly to the Yamen.
Just because he has a mandate and this dead old woman has nothing, why should she fight with herself?
Thinking of this, her expression became more and more calm. She couldn't believe that this damn old woman had gone to Xiaqing Temple for a few days and could make a huge difference. She was really overly cautious just now.
In fact, this is okay, there are only two people in the house. If something happens to me, won't it be all this woman's fault? What happens then? Isn't it up to me to have the final say?
Mrs. Yu had such a calculation in her heart, and even showed a bit of complacency on her face. Suddenly she heard the old lady's words and was stunned: "What, you want to do something?"
"Yes, I want to do something for Lan Xuan and An. I will hold a ceremony for them in the yard where the fire broke out before and summon their souls. I don't believe that I can't summon their souls. I can't let them
Send me your dreams." The old lady gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "The master of Xia Qing Guan said that it is okay to send dreams to me."
Yu Lanxuan and An Shi dream?
Mrs. Yu's whole body was tense. Could it be that the faint crying in the past few nights was because the two of them died unjustly and refused to dissipate?
Thinking of this, the hairs on my vest stood up.
He slapped the edge of the bed hard: "No, I don't agree."
"No matter what, you have to. I heard that the real person in Qingguan is recognized by the royal family. Since they have agreed to this, they will definitely come. You can't even reject the real person recognized by the emperor, right? Li, can't you?
Are you really guilty and scared, are you afraid that Lan Xuan and Anshi will come to you and demand your life?"
The old lady sneered.
Mrs. Yu's face was as gloomy as water: "The real person from Shangqing Temple is the real person recognized by the emperor. I have never heard of the same person from Xiaqing Temple. You are just a country woman, what do you know?"
"The women's crowns from Xia Qing Guan are more suitable for performing rituals in the inner court. Don't think I don't know, Mr. Li. Generally, the rituals in the inner courtyard are done by women's crowns from Xia Qing Guan, which is more convenient." said the old lady.
"Then you are really ill-informed. The most powerful people are always the real people from Shangqing Guan. Besides, we only have two old ladies in the inner courtyard here. What's the inconvenience? As for those who can't invite the real people from Shangqing Guan, then
You can tell me who has the best view of lower purity, but the most important person in the palace is the person who has the highest purity."
Mrs. Yu Tai retorted mockingly.
"That's right, you are an old woman who has just arrived in the capital. What do you know? You are just following what others say. After hearing some hearsay, you thought it was true. When you found the real person in Qingguan, you thought you had found someone really powerful. This kind of thing will happen in the future.
You should stop getting involved, lest others think that our Zhengyuan Hou Mansion is ignorant, and we will lose the face of our Zhengyuan Hou Mansion."
Mrs. Yu mocked her unceremoniously, which made the old lady look livid with anger.
He pointed at Mrs. Yu: "Okay, Shangqing Temple, right?"
"Yes, if you want to invite, please invite the real person from Shangqing Temple, and we won't talk about anything else." Mrs. Yu said arrogantly, even if this old woman had the ability to invite the real person from Shangqing Temple, it would have to be delayed for at least a few days, just these few days.
She and this damn old lady will have a falling out, and by then the damn old lady will be in jail, so how can she do anything else?
Are you trying to solve the problem in the Burning Courtyard again? Or does this dead old woman mean it? Mrs. Yu sneered in her heart, that would be impossible even if she died.
At a glance, you can tell that the method is false and the attempt to cause trouble is true.
No matter what the dead old woman wants to do here, it won't be a problem after a few days. By then, the dead old woman will be a prisoner, and she won't be able to do anything she wants to do?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Yu's expression became calmer and calmer. She looked at the angry old lady opposite and taunted her: "Go... go now. As long as you invite the real person from Shangqingfan, I will agree with you."
I mean, otherwise... don't be ungrateful and think that you are really the master of Zhengyuan Hou Mansion. I'm not dead yet, so it's not your turn!"
Outside the yard, a mother-in-law ran in to report the news, but in the yard, all the maids and women were standing in two rows, clearly separated, watching each other...
