238: The Queen Is so Upset
Zhu Chanyi came out from her mother's place, and for a moment she didn't know whether Wu Daohong was attacked by the people in the Duke of Qi's Mansion or by Xinyi.
But what does it matter?
As her mother said, although she didn't understand who the gods were fighting, she understood that mortals were suffering.
Is it true that only Su Yi can be allowed to suffer in this world, and no one else can be allowed to suffer?
That doesn't make sense.
In the end, it depends on who can come up with real evidence.
Wu Daohong is sure that the Duke of Qi's Mansion can't produce evidence, so now he is in such a situation, and he can't produce real evidence either.
Zhu Chanyi encountered such a thing for the first time in her life, and she felt that she had really learned a lot. Neither she nor her mother could be sure whether it was Xinyi, but they were just guessing privately.
She thought about it, if it was their family that encountered such a thing, she really wouldn't do the action of attacking Wu Daohong.
Great people need to be admired rather than imitated, anyway, she can't imitate them.
The development of the matter was indeed unexpected. As soon as Wu Daohong was injured, some people immediately suspected that it was done by the Princess of Yong'an. After all, this person has done many things that ordinary people can't do.
However, on the day when Wu Daohong was attacked, the news that Su Xinyi met Prince Rong and the Crown Prince at Yuande Theater was also spread.
In addition, the person who seriously injured Wu Daohong used a whip, while Su Xinyi was good at using a spear and a waist knife. It is impossible for a person to be proficient in all weapons, especially since Su Xinyi grew up in the countryside and did not have the financial support to practice several weapons.
Most people refused to believe it and thought that the Princess of Yong'an was not so powerful.
As for the other children of the Su family, Su Yi was defeated by Wu Daohong. It is impossible for the other descendants of the Su family who had just picked up the boy's skills to make rapid progress in such a short time.
Who could it be?
Everyone was thinking about who this person was. The Princess of Yong'an was the most likely, but she had perfect evidence of being absent, and many people did see her at Yuande Theater that day. Besides, no one believed that she could use a whip so well in addition to a spear and a waist knife.
At this time, the queen in Yuanhui Palace was asking her son, "Did you really listen to the opera with her for an afternoon?"
"It's not me, there's my elder brother." Prince Rong immediately corrected him, asking his mother to be more careful. What did he mean by he listened to the opera with Su Xinyi for an afternoon? This single man and a single woman should pay attention to their innocence, especially his innocence.
After hearing what her son said, the queen looked at him suspiciously, but still couldn't hold back her anger, "I've told you so many times that Su Xinyi is a troublemaker. Nothing good will happen if you meet her. You'll see her everywhere. You should avoid her in the future. Besides, she will be the crown princess in the future. Are you stupid?"
Prince Rong thought to himself that he was not stupid, but his mother was stupid, but he didn't dare to say it.
"I know, it's not that my elder brother and I happened to see her when we were listening to the opera." Prince Rong said perfunctorily.
"I'm not angry if you don't tell me. If you tell me what play you went to with the prince, I know it must be the prince who asked you to go, right? He just can't stand your progress and has to hold you back. Can't you be more careful?" The queen was really exhausted. How could she give birth to such a fool?
The more she thought about it, the sadder she felt. Not only did her family not live up to her expectations and brought shame to her, but now she has become a commoner. Among all the queens in Southern Qi, she is the only one who is so unlucky.
In the past, she felt that although her family background was not as good as hers, her subordinates liked her son. Moreover, although her family was not living up to her expectations, it was not like Li Ji who was exiled.
Now it's good. Their family has become a commoner, which is not much better than exile.
The queen's mood these days is really like a river going downhill. If it weren't for the fact that His Majesty came to Yuanhui Palace more recently, she really thought that her position as queen would end.
In this period of time, she couldn't take care of her son, and she was coaxed by the prince to become his follower.
The queen really felt that there was no place in the world where she felt comfortable, not to mention how bad it was.
"Why am I so careless?" Prince Rong was not very happy, "Mother, actually my elder brother is really good. Look at what happened in Ding'an Guard this time. If it weren't for my elder brother, I would definitely be punished by my father when I came back."
"How dare you say that?" The queen's eyes turned black and she almost fainted, "You worked hard to investigate the case in Ding'an Guard, but when you came back, the credit was taken by the prince, and you still thanked him foolishly."
Prince Rong felt that he really had no common language with his mother. Were they talking about the same thing?
He stood up, "Mother, don't worry, your son will definitely make progress. Don't worry about my affairs. I'm fine. I think you just think too much. Isn't it enough to manage the affairs of the harem and think about how to take good care of my father?"
Queen:...
Prince Rong patted his butt and left. The queen didn't even have the energy to be angry.
On the other hand, Su Qi and his team at the Duke of Qi's Mansion also got evidence that Liang Ju had a mistress. It was indeed as Xinyi said. Liang Ju did keep his childhood sweetheart, Qiao, as a mistress. They also had two sons. The eldest son was eight years old and the youngest was six years old.
Liang Ju's wife, He, had a son and a daughter. The eldest son was only seven years old and the daughter was five years old. That is to say, when He married Liang Ju, Qiao was already pregnant.
The master did not hesitate at all this time. Wu Daohong certainly did not have the courage to hurt his son. The only person who could make Wu Daohong take such a ruthless action was Liang Ju.
It is hard to say whether Liang Ju was instructed by the Li family, but it is impossible for his son to lie in bed and recover while Liang Ju can sit comfortably and enjoy the happiness of Qiren.
The eldest master immediately sent the evidence to He secretly. The second master did not object this time, and the third master was very supportive. Different methods should be used for different people.
If Liang Ju dared to attack the children of their Qiguogong Mansion, he must be aware of the price to pay.
The second master looked at his eldest brother and the third brother and said slowly: "If He knew the truth and cared about her husband's future, would she make a fuss about this matter?"
"Second brother, how come you have become as honest as your eldest brother? Don't you think that we can send the evidence to He, and whether He will make a fuss or not depends on whether we are willing to make a fuss about it. Don't worry, I will make Liang Ju's scandal spread all over the capital tomorrow." The third master sneered and said, "Speaking of which, Xiaoliu is still suspected, so it's just right for everyone to have more fun and not keep an eye on our Xinyi."
It's better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone.
Su Qi and other younger generations who were listening kept silent, but they all thought that the third master did a good job in this matter.
Su Qi and his brothers looked at each other, and then said, "Uncle San, why don't we do this?"
The Third Master immediately agreed, "Okay, you should practice too. You can't be too rigid in life."
"Third brother! Don't teach the child bad things." The eldest master said with a headache.
The Third Master said nonchalantly, "Good children can never be taught badly. Those who can be taught badly are not good people in the first place."
Everyone: ...
Su Xinyi was accompanying her grandmother to worship Buddha. Although the lady felt that Xinyi's matter was to vent her anger for her eldest grandson, the child's temper was still reckless and she had to learn to restrain herself.
There was no good way to restrain her, so she asked her to accompany her to worship Buddha and copy scriptures for an hour every day.
Su Xinyi was really familiar with worshiping Buddha. In her previous life, she also made a small Buddhist temple for herself in a small room separated by a wall from her bedroom.
At that time, her stepmother was very ill. She ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddha every day, hoping that Buddha could alleviate her stepmother's illness and that her sincerity could move Buddha.
Her stepmother failed to extend her life, but she returned to the time when she just returned to the Duke's Mansion. She always felt that perhaps the scriptures she had read, the kowtows she had made, and the confessions she had made to Buddha during those sleepless nights had all paid off.
Now she was asked to accompany her grandmother to worship Buddha, and she really didn't look impatient at all. Moreover, whether she was kneeling to read the scriptures or copying the scriptures, at least in the eyes of the lady and others, she was very pious, without any dissatisfaction or coping.
The lady was very satisfied that she could control her temper, and the child was teachable and could still be turned around.
After copying the scriptures, Su Xinyi would also chat with her grandmother to relieve her fatigue. More often, she would listen to her grandmother talk about her father's childhood.
Su Xinyi had never heard of these things, and it sounded interesting. It was hard to imagine that the great hero who later became famous in the world was so mischievous and annoying when he was young.
The lady felt that Xinyi had never seen her father, so she always wanted to tell her child about her father. She said that her youngest son was naughty when he was young but had a heroic spirit when he grew up. This was also a disguised way of telling Xinyi that it was common for people to make mistakes, but they should correct them when they knew they were wrong.
Seeing that the child listened very seriously, he must have listened.
Su Xinyi was very happy, and the lady was happy to talk, and the two of them were unexpectedly harmonious.
Su Xixian greeted her grandmother this morning and did not go back to embroider her dowry as usual, but winked at Su Xinyi.
Su Xinyi knew that something must be wrong, so she said to her grandmother: "Grandma, I'll go see how the fifth sister's dowry is embroidered, and I'll come back to accompany you to worship Buddha in a while."
The lady waved her hand when she heard it, "Go, your fifth sister's wedding date is very close, you two sisters can talk more when you have nothing to do."
Save her from going out for no reason and causing trouble for her.
After the sisters came out of the lady's yard, Su Xixian immediately took Su Xinyi to her yard and said to her: "Guess what news I heard?"
"What news?" Su Xinyi looked at Su Xixian's excited look and thought something really happened.
"The news that Liang Ju had a concubine has spread everywhere. I heard that Madam Liang took people to find them and tied up the mother and son of the Qiao family and took them back to the Liang Mansion." Su Xixian's eyebrows were flying, "What do you think she will do?"
Su Xinyi didn't expect things to go so smoothly, but she was a little surprised. Looking at Su Xixian, she asked: "Just take the mother and son back to the Liang Mansion?"
"Yes, we can't fight and kill outside. It's so ugly. Things should be handled behind closed doors." Su Xixian looked at her sister and said, "Every official has to have face. Liang Although Ju is a military officer, he still has to save face. If Madam Liang disregards his face and disposes of the Qiao mother and son, won't it make people laugh at him? "
Su Xinyi said, "If you take them back, there will be no fun."
Once the gate is closed, the ladies in the house have many tricks. It must be said that Madam Liang is very powerful. Taking the Qiao mother and son back can make Liang Ju feel guilty in front of her, and Madam Liang saves Liang Ju's face. Then he has to take a step back on how to deal with the Qiao mother and son.
Such a method is quite true to the Princess of Pingjing County.
Su Xixian was amused when she heard this, "What fun do you want to see? Do you really want to see people fighting and bleeding? That's impossible. "
Officials all want to save face. Unless Madam Liang wants to divorce, she has to protect her husband first.
"Fifth sister is right. In such a matter, Madam Liang can't really deal with Qiao's mother and son like a shrew outside, letting people in the capital laugh at her." Su Xinyi sighed slightly, feeling a little pity.
This Madam Liang is really a good material for being an official's wife. She can bend and stretch, and she is a character.
It seems that after marrying Liang Ju, she was able to have thick skin to communicate with Madam Zhu, and she has been able to continue for so many years, and the relationship seems to be maintained well, which shows her true nature.
Perhaps, for her, it doesn't matter whether her husband is loyal or not, and it doesn't matter whether her husband keeps a concubine or not. What matters is the glory that her husband's official position brings her.
Such a person is actually very difficult to fight with, because such a person doesn't care about the things that ordinary women care about.
Su Xixian nodded, "Husband and wife are one. Even if Madam Liang is really angry, she will not do such a thing. At most, she will vent her anger behind closed doors. Speaking of which, in this matter, Lord Liang enjoys the blessing of having two wives, and Qiao can bring her child into the gate of Liang Mansion. The only one who is most embarrassed is Madam Liang."
The eldest son born by her husband's concubine is one year older than her son, which means that Qiao and Liang Ju have had an affair for a long time, but Liang Ju did not marry her but Madam Liang, for the benefit brought to him by Madam Liang's family.
But he married Madam Liang, but still raised his childhood sweetheart Qiao outside, which is really disgusting.
Su Xinyi's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this. Madam Liang's sister married Li Muyan. Now that something like this has happened, I wonder if she will ask her sister for help.
If Madam Liang asks her sister, her family, to be fair, will Li Muyan express her opinion?
If Li Muyan helps, what will the Li family react to?
She always felt that this matter was related to the Li family, but there was no evidence. She didn't know if this matter could help her find some clues.
Su Xinyi hurriedly said goodbye to Su Xixian and went directly to find Su Yi. When she told her eldest brother about the matter, Su Yi said, "I'll have someone keep an eye on it, but the relationship between the Liang family and the Li family is not very harmonious. Maybe Mrs. Liang won't let my sister help with this matter."
"No matter what, keep an eye on it first." Su Xinyi could only try her best now. The people behind the scenes were too patient, so they could only keep their tempers.
