Chapter 224 Seeing the Injustice 1

Changyang Hou Mansion

Chu Yunning went directly to find Changyang Hou. It happened that the other party was not there, so she sent someone to inform him and sat in the chair anxiously for a while.

"Chu Shang Palace?"

A woman suddenly walked in outside the door, looking nervous, but she was dressed up with dignity and elegance, and very rich.

The woman's appearance is beautiful, although she is not as ostentatious as Concubine Xia, she is also very beautiful, and her every frown and smile is somewhat similar to Concubine Xia.

So the one in front of me must be Xia Furong.

Perhaps when she saw Xia Furong, she thought of Concubine Xia’s suffering over the years, and she was very immersive and angry, and she tried hard to suppress her anger.

"Chu Shanggong." Xia Furong stepped forward slowly and smiled gently and politely at Chu Yunning: "I just said that Chu Shanggong is here, but I still couldn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be true."

Xia Furong immediately ordered the maid to go to the best tea and dessert.

"You don't have to be polite. I'm here to find Changyang Marquis because I have something to do." Chu Yunning casually supported his hand on the table, and smiled and chatted with Xia Furong about family matters: "Mrs. Hou is beautiful and charming. Master Hou must be spoiled very much."

A sentence hit Xia Furong's heart. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "The Marquis is indeed a very good husband."

This was a bit ambiguous, and from Xia Furong's eyes, she couldn't see any shyness.

"Are Mrs. Hou happy all these years?" Chu Yunning chatted while drinking tea and having snacks, and then said: "I remember that Concubine Xia in the palace is Mrs. Hou's sister?"

"Chu Shanggong misunderstood. The time of birth between us sisters is about the same, and of course the imperial concubine is the most respected."

Xia Furong mentioned Concubine Xia, with a little unnatural face on her face, and asked with concern: "I wonder how Concubine Xia is doing recently?"

"I don't think it's good. Should Mrs. Hou enter the palace and see the concubine?"

Chu Yunning followed the conversation, but made Xia Furong cough unnaturally; "To be honest, I was slightly cold a few days ago, and I was worried that I would give the disease to the imperial concubine."

Chu Yunning was too lazy to expose her and said, "The Imperial Concubine and Mrs. Hou are in love with each other."

Xia Furong didn't dare to answer casually when she heard this. She just lowered her head to drink tea, occasionally coughing twice, and looked at the other person with great vigilance.

"The noble concubine cannot stay in the palace all the time. It is inconsistent with the rules of reason and reason. Is Mrs. Hou planning to contribute a portion of the money for three million taels of silver?"

This made Xia Furong not know how to continue. She just smiled embarrassedly, but Chu Yunning refused to give in: "After all, they are sisters, and Mrs. Hou, if you can help, please help."

If the other party hadn't been afraid of her, Xia Furong wouldn't have given her a good face. After hesitating for a moment, her eyes were slightly red, and she choked and said, "As long as I can get my sister out, I will do my best. Just like when my sister abandoned the Marquis in order to enter the palace, if it weren't for me, the Xia family would have to bear the reputation of being untrustworthy, but it doesn't matter, we sisters don't pay attention to this."

Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows and looked at the other party Yingying and wanted to cry, suppressed his sneer, and asked in confusion: "The Emperor of Xihai already had sixty or seventy concubines in the six palaces. Although Concubine Xia is beautiful, according to the Emperor of Xihai, how could Concubine Xia be sure that she would be favored?"

"this……"

"What's more, Concubine Xia is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and has a noble status. Even if she does not have Changyang Marquis, she is more than enough to marry any prince. Why do you have to marry the emperor as a concubine?"

Chu Yunning blinked at Xia Furong: "Madam Hou, is Concubine Xia unconscious? She gave up the identity of the head-on lady outside and insisted on jumping into the fire pit?"

"This..." Xia Furong was sweating constantly on her forehead when she was asked, and she hesitated for a long time, holding her forehead with one hand, and the maid immediately said: "Madam, the doctor said you can't see the wind, it's time to drink medicine even if it's not too late."

So Xia Furong stood up with the maid's hand and bowed to Chu Yunning Yingying: "Chu Shanggong, I'm really sorry, I'm not happy, so I'll go back and rest first."

"What's the hurry?" Chu Yunning leisurely placed the teacup on the table, and his tone was faint: "I see that Mrs. Hou's face was flushed, but she didn't seem to be sick. Which quack doctor gave her the pulse?"

Xia Furong paused her feet and looked at the other person in a daze. Since she couldn't even pretend to be sick, she simply opened the skylight and said something brightly, and asked: "Chu Shanggong, did Concubine Xia say something? Don't listen to one side. I am already a wife. Although I care about the sisterhood, I must also take into account the face of my in-laws' family. Chu Shanggong should not make things difficult for me, back then..."

Chu Yunning interrupted Xia Furong: "I don't care about your sisters. I only have money, and I'm still a million taels away. Mrs. Hou married into the Marquis's mansion as a concubine daughter and became Marquis. It is said that the ten-mile red makeup was envious of others back then."

Xia Furong gasped when she heard this. She did get half of the dowry of the eldest lady before she got married into the Marquis's Mansion. She spent so much money over the years, but she didn't have much left.

She guessed that Concubine Xia must have betrayed her. It was obvious that she was having trouble with her, and she would still drag her to death.

Xia Furong was so angry that her teeth itched: "The dowry was given to me by her mother. She is already a concubine. Is there still less subsidies from the Prime Minister's House over the years?"

One million, she can't even be beaten to death.

Chu Yunning sneered: "So, is Mrs. Hou going to be dependent on the debt?"

Due to the current situation, Xia Furong did not dare to make a fuss at Chu Yunning, but just cried with a grievance and said that it was not easy for her.

Chu Yunning was a little annoyed when she heard the crying. From the day she came over, she had a filter of rejection for her concubine's daughter. She did not rule out what they did. She always felt that the mistress's child was openly snatching away what her original wife should have.

This is also the most important point of Chu Yunning's sympathy for Concubine Xia!

There may be many unfair things in the world. Some people have been depressed for life, but when they are met by her, Chu Yunning wants to take care of it!

"I..." Xia Furong was not confident enough and suddenly said with red eyes: "I have paid back what I owe her over the years. I have never had children since I got married. I am thanking her..."

"Madam Hou, let me say it again. I am not interested in the grudges between you. If you take the imperial concubine's dowry, you should redeem the imperial concubine!" Chu Yunning's face turned pale, and he seemed to be here to ask for the account.

Xia Furong was so angry that she cried.

Chu Yunning turned his head and didn't look at her. He couldn't feel sympathy at all. He sat on the chair and waited slowly for Changyang Hou to come back.

"I don't have silver. This dowry was given by the Xia family when they got married, and it was not from Concubine Xia at all."

What can she do if she bite her to death and refuse to admit it?
