Chapter 454: The So-Called Years of Hard Work
Mrs. Xingguo Gong did not expect that Shao Wanru would immediately change the views of the clan elders in just a few words. Seeing the clan elders nodding their heads as they listened to her words, their expressions were full of pity, and Gong Xingguo almost became angry. Can't control it.
"Madam, please wait!" Mother Sheng whispered, her eyes falling on Dongxing. This matter can't be explained clearly now. Even if she can't directly destroy the reputation of the fifth lady, she can't kill her. But at least it will make people talk about it. Wang Shengxue can kill him for admitting the wrong person. As for who it is, of course he won't say.
If you don't say it, the eldest princess Ruian can't interfere, but if you don't say it, everyone can see clearly that there are so many clan elders, and what they say will not sound good.
Mrs. Xingguo nodded. Today's matter is not over yet, but at the next moment, the calmness on her face froze.
"Princess, I know this person!" Yu Jie's voice sounded particularly clear in the room.
Mrs. Xingguo grabbed Aunt Sheng's hand and her body trembled slightly.
"Madam, even if it is found to be related to us, the young master will not say that it is yours." Aunt Sheng also felt bad, but she had to appease Mrs. Xingguo and lowered her voice.
"Who is this?" Princess Ruian said coldly.
"This girl is the maid next to the second young lady of the Ning Mansion. The second young lady of the Ning Mansion is very close to the prince, which is very unusual. When our young lady was in the Qin Mansion, she investigated the Ning Mansion because of the eldest lady's affairs. I know that there are two young ladies in Ning Mansion, the eldest young lady has a very good relationship with Prince Yong Kangbo, and the second young lady and Prince Wang are very caring. This is something that all the shops around Ning Mansion know!"
Yujie pointed at Dongxing and pointed out loudly.
Just now, she had gotten the hint from the young lady, asking her to reveal Dong Xing's identity. Yu Jie did know about Dong Xing. This was what Shao Wanru had found out when she asked her to check before. What she said just now, It was also what she actually found out, and it was well-documented. Under the circumstances at that time, it made sense to go to the Channing Mansion because of Qin Yuru's relationship.
The matter between Di Yan and Ning Caixian was a big scandal in Beijing, and it was a continuous scandal. Almost everyone in Beijing didn't know about it. First, Qin Yuru caused trouble in Ning Mansion, and then Ning Caixian harmed Qin Yuru. , people ruined Qin Yuru's reputation, and Ning Caixian knelt at the door of the Qin Mansion and begged to take Di Yan as his concubine, and then was forcefully sent to the Yamen. In the end, Ning Caixian died, and Di Yan was still with Qin Yuru. .
I heard that Di Yan was really infatuated with Qin Yuru. Even after Qin Yuru hooked up with Prince Cheng, the eldest son of Yong-Kangbo Mansion still proposed to marry him wholeheartedly. I heard that the wedding date has been brought forward.
Of course, some people think that Di Yan is really stupid. I don't know how many cuckolds he has worn on his head, but he still wears it so tightly, and he is not afraid of sweating in the hot weather.
And of course this sweat is also green!
Di Yan and Ning Caixian had an unclean relationship at that time. What about the second young lady? Seeing this situation, she also had an unclean relationship with Wang Shengxue?
Anyone who knew the master of the Ning Mansion could not help but shake their heads. The two daughters of the Ning Mansion were both brought up in a despicable manner! It's really disappointing.
"Tell me, who do you think this girl is?" Princess Ruian turned her eyes to the stunned Wang Shengxue and shouted sternly.
"I...I thought...she was the second young lady of the Ning Mansion..." Wang Shengxue was sweating profusely, but he had to say this. Princess Ruian's eyes fell on his face with almost murderous intent. As long as he Saying a bad word against Shao Wanru would probably end badly.
Originally he thought his second aunt was his support, but when he saw Mrs. Xingguo, who was also pale and trembling slightly, Wang Shengxue felt desperate and had to push Ning Xueqing out, not daring to mention Shao Wanru. millimeter.
It is not difficult to find out what happened between him and Ning Xueqing, and it is also easy to ask about Dongxing's identity.
Hearing what Wang Shengxue said, Mrs. Xingguo almost fainted and glared at Wang Shengxue angrily. He didn't mention Shao Wanru at all, which meant that this matter had nothing to do with Shao Wanru. After planning for so long, she didn't even get a trace of Shao Wanru. She was not willing to accept the damage.
"In that case, let Duke Xingguo send you to the official position! The maid pretended to be her master and had a tryst with him. This kind of thing should be easy to investigate!" Princess Ruian raised her eyes and looked at Duke Xingguo and said coldly.
She couldn't involve her granddaughter in such a dishonorable matter, so she could only let it go gently.
It is not difficult to deal with Wang Shengxue and a maid, but I am afraid that my granddaughter will be involved. Now it is best that this matter has nothing to do with my granddaughter.
"Eldest Princess, this... this matter is not a big deal at all. It's just a lack of personal ethics. Since this girl is like this, she should be his concubine. The one in Dining Mansion also Become a concubine!" Duke Xingguo sighed and begged Princess Ruian helplessly.
This matter did not involve Shao Wanru. Strictly speaking, it was indeed a private matter. It was understandable that Xing Guogong, an elder, handled it this way.
Even the clan elders sitting here can't say anything. This matter has nothing to do with the Shaw clan. Neither Wang Shengxue nor the second lady of the Ning Mansion has anything to do with the Shaw clan.
Since they had nothing to do with each other, they all thought it was a good idea to buy Xing Guogong, so they nodded one by one.
"Personal ethics are indeed bad, but concubines don't matter." "It's just a concubine, it's not a big deal. The second young lady of the Ning Mansion can only be a concubine now!" "The one who hires is a wife, and Ben is a concubine. It’s okay for me!”…
Shao Wanru looked at everyone's reactions with cold eyes, then looked at Dong Xing who was lying on the ground, dumbfounded. Suddenly his eyes darkened, and he stretched out his hand to pull Princess Ruian's sleeve, and said coquettishly: "Grandma, just do it Spare this girl’s life, for the sake of her being a concubine with her master, I have to spare their lives too!”
She was a concubine in the same room. In the last life, this girl helped Ning Xueqing trample herself into the mud. In this life, she wanted to see how loyal she could be to serving her good young lady.
The eldest princess Ruian obviously understood what Shao Wanru said, reached out to touch her beautiful girl, and nodded: "Just do as Duke Xingguo said, but today the matter of setting fire to your house cannot be just like this. After that, who has the ability to burn the burning yard? I just asked someone to check it and found that kerosene was used in it, and it was high-quality kerosene. Is there anyone in this house who can use high-quality kerosene? And you sprinkled the oil on Zhuo Zhuo's yard without knowing it, only to burn it when Zhuo Zhuo took a bath?"
After finishing speaking, the eldest princess Ruian pounded the table hard, her face hard to hide: "Who in the Duke of Xingguo wants to harm Zhuo Zhuo? Who can't tolerate Zhuo Zhuo so much? Who hates Zhuo Zhuo so much that he even wants her life?"
Princess Ruian's words became sharper and sharper, and sweat began to appear on Duke Xingguo's forehead.
Good kerosene is not something that ordinary people can afford, but it happens to be available in Duke Xingguo's Mansion. However, this kind of dangerous goods is not available to anyone who wants to use it. Except for a few older masters of Duke Xingguo's Mansion, even young people People of that generation cannot be transferred casually.
Duke Xingguo wanted to look back at Duke Xingguo's wife, but he was afraid that the eldest princess Ruian would find out, so he could only cough lowly.
"When we were in the palace before, the Queen Mother also heard it. The Queen Mother of your mansion said she hated Zhuo Zhuo very much. Today such a big thing happened, but she didn't even come out to say hello to Zhuo Zhuo. It shows that she dislikes Zhuo Zhuo very much. Even if he is burned to death, does it have nothing to do with her?"
The eldest princess of Ruian didn't wait for Duke Xingguo to speak and said sharply again.
Shao Wanru leaned into the arms of the eldest princess Ruian and cried softly. Anyone who is disliked by his own grandmother and is so unhappy that he doesn't even care about her safety will be sad and aggrieved.
Thinking about Miss Shao Wu, she is really pitiful. She lost her biological father and mother, and even her biological grandmother was so slow to treat her. Thinking about it in detail, I immediately felt horrified. The fire started today because someone set the fire. The timing was excellent. , it was when Miss Shao Wu was taking a bath.
When the fire broke out, if Miss Shao Wu wanted to survive, she would have escaped naked. But if she had escaped naked, how could she have survived with so many people outside and her reputation so ruined, even if there was Mr. Ruian behind her? It's useless for the eldest princess. Women's reputation is as important as the sky, and the Shaw family is the most polite and well-behaved family.
There seemed to be no one except Mrs. Xingguo who could do this in the inner courtyard of Duke Xingguo's mansion. However, when someone saw Mrs. Xingguo who turned pale, they suddenly felt that Mrs. Xingguo might be able to do it too.
Duke Xingguo's expression changed drastically. He stood up suddenly and bowed deeply to Princess Ruian: "Princess, please be careful what you say!"
"What? Can't you tell me what you did? Even the Queen Mother is aware of your malice towards Zhuo Zhuo. Judging from the arson, it must be the master of your mansion. Who in your mansion, Duke Xing Guo, thinks is most likely to do harm? Zhuo Zhuo?" Princess Ruian said without taking a step back.
The sweat on Duke Xingguo's head started to drop, and he secretly complained about his mother. Can he say this in front of the Queen Mother?
"The eldest princess's mother has not been involved in affairs for many years. As she gets older, she is sometimes a little confused, but she doesn't really hate anyone anymore." Xingguo Gong had to explain.
"I have not cared about internal affairs for many years, which means that the internal affairs have been managed by Duke Xingguo for so many years. Madam told me who has such great ability to harm Zhuo Zhuo, and also hates her so much. I heard that when my son was in Duke Xingguo's mansion, , it’s not very compatible with Madam.”
The eldest princess Ruian took advantage of the situation and moved her words to Mrs. Xingguo.
Shao Wanru couldn't help but secretly praise her, her grandmother was indeed the eldest princess. Her words were powerful and fierce, but because of her identity and her current situation, her words were justified.
"The eldest princess, I... how could I..." Mrs. Xingguo said in shock. Suddenly she covered her face with a handkerchief and started crying, "The eldest princess is like my biological niece. For her, I I even gave up the best yard just to make up for the debt I had owed for many years. Why would I want to burn her to death? That yard is my hard work for many years."
Shao Wanru, lying in the arms of the eldest princess Ruian, sneered in his heart, years of hard work! But it’s not just the years of hard work that she could have left to her eldest son if she had died...
