As long as the reputation of Prince Ruicheng's Palace is not implicated, Prince Ruicheng's Palace will not care about Xiuwen's life or death.

The married daughter threw away the water. Xiuwen was not Mu's biological child anyway. King Ruicheng was an old man and was not so thoughtful. It would be easy to hide something from him.

The Yang family originally wanted to marry Xiuwen because of the title of county head, and they didn't expect to cause such a big scandal before. Xiuwen, who was suspected of deliberately falling to avoid getting married, could be virtuous, virtuous, upright and generous.

Later, when I vaguely heard that Xiuwen was able to coax the Yang family, Mu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were quite surprised, but thinking that Xiuwen was more arrogant and indulgent, she was not a fool after all. She knew that making trouble was useless, so she might as well coax the Yang family honestly.

It is true that the Yang family's son is stupid, but after all, the Yang family has a fortune, which is much better than marrying a fierce clan or spending the rest of his life in a nunnery.

After suddenly hearing the news of Xiuwen's pregnancy, Mu Shi reacted first and asked hurriedly: "Did Xiuwen ask someone to come back and deliver something a few days ago?"

"It seems like that's the case." Mrs. Tang thought about it seriously, nodded, and ate a little bit of food, which was equivalent to the human relations between various governments. It happened during the holidays, and she didn't care. Anyway, this damn girl Xiuwen sent it to her.

She didn't eat or use the food she had. She would reward her servants with what she ate and throw it away in the storehouse.

Mu said: "Let's check later. Those who served Xiu Wen before but did not follow her as a dowry, see if anyone has come into contact with Ning Ya'er."

"Mother-in-law, do you suspect Xiuwen?" Tang's eyes widened, thinking it was impossible.

"I don't doubt anyone, I'm just being cautious." Regarding Tang's slowness, Mu sighed secretly. When she chose her daughter-in-law, she felt that she was too smart and capable. Her son couldn't hold it down, and the house was already in a mess. She didn't want to

I want a daughter-in-law who is too thoughtful.

Even if Mr. Tang is the case, it doesn't mean that Mr. Tang is stupid, but after all, he is still a little bit behind, so long as there are no troublesome things. When encountering problems, this IQ flaw comes out, and nothing is always perfect.

Their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not say they were hostile, it was just a matter of habit. When Mu Shi spoke, she always left room for leeway and would not speak directly to Tang. She suspected that Xiuwen, the daughter of a concubine, had unkind intentions and was plotting to harm Prince Ruicheng's palace.

Tang only thought it was unlikely, but her mother-in-law had spoken, so naturally she wanted to investigate, but she thought about it and then said: "Mother-in-law, wouldn't it be better to ask Ning Ya'er directly? This Ning Ya'er doesn't look like that.

How tight your tone is, you should be able to tell by asking."

"Do you think it's credible if it comes directly from Ning Ya'er's mouth?" Mu asked rhetorically.

Mr. Tang couldn't answer. Normally, these seducing vixens don't have a word of truth in their mouths, so naturally they can't be trusted. But at this juncture, even this vixen doesn't dare to talk nonsense.

Mu said calmly: "Even if Ning Ya'er doesn't dare to lie, who can guarantee that she has not been deceived? The person who encouraged Ning Ya'er to make trouble in front of Prince Ding's Mansion is obviously uneasy and has good intentions. Naturally, he can expect that the matter will be exposed.

He will be held accountable later, can this person tell the truth?"

Mrs. Tang couldn't even answer. After a long while, she said: "But Xiuwen is dead...she and Ning Ya'er have no hatred, so there is no need for her to have trouble with a concubine."

"Xiuwen has no grudge against Ning Ya'er, but he does have grudge against Princess Ding." Mu now felt that her energy was not as good as before. Sooner or later, Prince Ruicheng's palace would be handed over to Tang, so she could only hold on to her hands if she couldn't bear it.

I hope it's not too late to teach Mr. Tang.

"Xiuwen and Princess Ding?" Tang asked cautiously, "Mother-in-law, what kind of grudge can they have?"

Mrs. Mu pondered for a moment, and she knew the real reason, that is, the girl Huaichun fell in love with Prince Ding. Xiuwen had hinted to Prince Ruicheng before that she hoped that the two houses would get married, but was scolded by Prince Ruicheng.

.

If their two palaces were to get married, they would both be royal palaces. If they became in-laws directly, they would be jealous of the Holy Emperor. Even on weekdays, they would not be too close to each other. This would never happen.

No matter how arrogant Xiuwen is, he still knows about some important things and doesn't dare to make trouble.

It was just that when I went to another house for a banquet, I met a girl who might become Princess Ding, and I tried to make things difficult for her to make her look embarrassed. Before Prince Ding settled down with Miss Meng, she went through several houses and it was said that she wanted to marry Princess Ding.

The girls who are married to the palace will let each other suffer some hidden losses. If no big trouble is caused, no one will take it seriously. Even if the trouble sometimes goes too far, how can those with a lower family background than Prince Ruicheng dare to come to the door?

If you file a complaint, you will only suffer the consequences of being dumb.

She knew about these little things and didn't care about them. Anyway, these things would only come back to Xiu Wen when the time came. The girls she had manipulated might marry into high-ranking families that day, or maybe more than ten years later,

Now the inconspicuous family will become prominent. When the old scores are settled, it will only be Xiuwen herself who suffers.

Retribution came quickly. That time, Xiuwen took advantage of Miss Meng's family, and the second Miss of Meng's family soon became Princess Ding, whose status was much higher than Xiuwen's.

Not long after, there were rumors that Xiu Wen would be considered as a marriage partner and married into the Meng clan.

King Ding has always been directly involved in the marriage affairs with the Meng clan. Many decisions were made after discussing with King Ding. Although there is no evidence that Xiuwen's marriage was proposed by King Ding, King Ding must have approved it.

Xiu Wen just planned to marry the princess, but she was about to marry him later. If she said it was just a coincidence, she wouldn't believe it.

Mrs. Mu did not tell Mrs. Tang what she said in her heart. She had some unsubstantiated speculations, so she could only know about them. If one more person knew about them, there would be an additional risk of leaking the secrets. This is how they were passed down to ten, so she only

He avoided the important matter and said lightly: "I don't know the details, but I can

It may be that when I went to another house for a banquet before, I met and had a quarrel with her. Xiuwen was spoiled by your father-in-law. She has a strong desire for revenge. A small quarrel can be magnified. I don’t know how high the world is. Now she is not doing well. See

Even if people are living a good life, they may not be mentally balanced."

Just because of a little naughty thing, you rack your brains to plot against others? Tang still couldn't understand it, so he didn't dare to say more, so he followed Mu's instructions and went to check the people who served Xiuwen in the past.

Mu sat for a while, but still felt uneasy after thinking about it, so she sent someone to invite King Ruicheng.

The children are not growing up. King Ruicheng has become much older during this period. He is not interested in banquets and the like. He cannot drink too much. Recently, he focuses on health care and only spends his free time in the study.

Practice calligraphy.

As soon as the maid next to Mu came to greet him, he put down his pen and couldn't help but sigh.

As I get older, I don’t have a caring person around me, but it’s easy to think of Mu’s thoughtfulness and understanding when I was young. In addition to being a little mediocre in appearance, Mu’s talent is all-encompassing.

The most beautiful woman he has ever seen.

But when I was young, I didn't think it was a big deal. I would rather drink and have fun with those singers and dancers who had nothing to lose, and neglected the good wives. Now that I am old, those warblings and swallows have become a passing smoke. When I am lonely, I think of Mu's family.

good.

He wanted to get close to Mu, but Mu didn't give him another chance. His attitude was very cold and he refused people thousands of miles away. He had no choice but to hide in the study every day and practice calligraphy.

Judging from past experience, Mrs. Mu took the initiative to invite me. Something must have happened in the house, probably in the yard of her youngest son.

It’s not like he didn’t know that Mu’s mother and son were at odds with their youngest son, so the best way was to let the younger son move away from Prince Ruicheng’s Mansion to avoid deepening their mutual dissatisfaction. He was afraid that his youngest son would suffer hardship, so he could subsidize more money.

When the family is separated in advance.

But he couldn't bear to deal with his younger son's illness.

Now when Mrs. Mu came to invite him, he had a headache. He was afraid that something might happen again, but he could not delay even if he was afraid.

He followed the little maid to Mu's courtyard, where Mu was sitting on a chair, waiting for him, with a solemn face.

King Ruicheng couldn't help but feel his heart sink. This time he said that the matter was very serious. He couldn't help but put on a smile and asked: "What happened?"

Mu's face was solemn and she told King Ruicheng exactly what happened today.

When King Ruicheng heard this, he realized that it was just as he expected. It was another basket that was poked out of his youngest son's yard. However, he felt that Mu was making a fuss out of a molehill. Wasn't it just an aunt who caused trouble? Inviting him here in such a serious manner was making a fuss out of a molehill.

However, he did not dare to say this to Mrs. Mu. He only smiled and said: "The third child and his wife are indeed a bit outrageous. As an elder, you should be more tolerant."

"My lord, do you think this is a trivial matter?" Mu asked with a cold face.

King Ruicheng thought to himself, how could an aunt be such a big deal, but he still said, "It's not a trivial matter at all. Later, someone will send a generous gift to Prince Ding's Mansion to make amends. I think Princess Ding won't care about these trivial matters."

.”

"Only you men think this is a trivial matter." Mu said calmly, "The reason why I made such a big show of asking people to retrieve Ning Ya'er at the door in the name of Prince Ruicheng's Mansion is that I didn't want this matter to affect the decision-making process.

If the reputation of the palace were not the same, if Ning Yaer, a young woman, was crying and crying in front of someone else's house, and she was dying, people who didn't know would have thought that the palace had done something to feel sorry for her."

"That's not the case." King Ruicheng felt guilty when he spoke, but he felt that it was just some romantic affairs. Speaking of which, he also complained about Lian Yufeng, why did he send Ning Ya'er to Prince Ruicheng's mansion?

?You know that this woman is difficult to deal with, so you just have to deal with it yourself.

Although Ning, the third daughter-in-law, was at fault in this matter, Ning was young after all. Lian Yufeng was in such a high position, why should he be as knowledgeable as a woman? In addition, with the mentality of a man, he did not believe in the famous Lian Yufeng.

Feng Hei really wasn't moved at all by a beauty as beautiful as Ning Ya'er, but because of his newly married princess, he didn't dare to go too far.

Seeing that Prince Ruicheng didn't take it seriously, Mrs. Mu said coldly: "Your Majesty, if we are a husband and wife, the affairs of Prince Ruicheng's Mansion are your and my business. Think about it, what happened recently in Yancheng City has nothing to do with Prince Ding's Mansion."

How many of those who were involved or offended Prince Ding's house had a good ending?"

"There are political discords in the court, and some things are unavoidable." King Ruicheng hesitated. To put it bluntly, Lian Yufeng likes to eradicate dissidents. This is nothing new. In his position, many people are like this.

, but even Yufeng is not so stingy as to take revenge on others just because of a little bit of nastiness between women.

Mu sneered: "Your Majesty, I don't know what kind of person this Lian Yufeng is, and I've never met his princess, but sometimes you can't judge a person just by meeting him once or twice.

Think about what happened to her, after Cong Lian Yufeng got engaged to this Mengshi, what happened to the people around them, is there any good thing?"

King Ruicheng thought for a while, "The father of Princess Ding was deprived of military power due to the marriage between two families, but now he has risen and has also solved a major case. Compared with his military career, he is a man with swords, guns and swords.

Wouldn’t it be better to be a civil servant?”

"It's this big case." Mu said, "As a housewife, even if I don't go out, I know how many people have been offended by this matter. Today's Meng family can be said to be on the cusp of the storm, and it's only temporary.

It’s just glory, there are probably many people who are eager to take revenge.”

"This has reached a certain high position. That's it. If there is no Meng family, there will be other families." King Ruicheng still disagreed. If he wanted to be safe, it was better to resign and become a peace squire.

Mrs. Mu added: "The Meng family recently lost a son. I heard that he died in an unknown manner. I don't know anything else. I only know that Princess Ding is a concubine. As soon as she returns to the city, she can marry a young man."

The high-ranking Prince Ding took charge of the entire Prince Ding's palace after passing through.

The prince has driven away most of the beauties he kept in the backyard, and the only favorite in the backyard is Princess Ding. What kind of person is Lian Yufeng? Can an ordinary woman charm him? I heard from people that although Princess Ding is not ugly, she is not ugly either.

To the point of overwhelming the country, why did you charm King Ding?"

"Who knows, maybe Lian Yufeng wants to settle it himself?" King Ruicheng thought of himself. If he had realized it earlier, maybe he wouldn't have had so many warblers in the early years.

So cold with Mu.

"Maybe, but Princess Ding is definitely not a simple person." When Mu said this, she felt that she had said too much, and said, "Ning Ya'er must have been ordered by someone to make trouble in front of Prince Ding's mansion. Now I

I suspect that the person who instigated this is your precious daughter Xiuwen."

"Xiuwen, this is impossible. Xiuwen married into the Yang family and hasn't been back recently." King Ruicheng said and sighed, "Don't overthink and complicate things.

I know you are upset, so in a few days, I will ask the third child and the others to move out, and let them cause trouble as they please."

"Your Majesty, I've told you everything, so that if something happens, you won't think that I didn't tell you in advance." Mu's expression was solemn, "I feel that if Xiuwen does anything behind her back, she will do it herself.
