Chapter 856: Piao Yun Yuan Asks for Help
No matter how many charming feelings he had, he was so frightened that he flew away into the distance.
At this time, Shao Caihuan also realized that his thinking was too simple. He thought that as long as he thought this way, he would have such a good opportunity and just make some moves.
I didn't expect that things would develop to this point, and that the third family member might even lose his life.
After the third lady asked her to wipe away her tears, she asked her mother-in-law to take Shao Caihuan to Piaoyun Courtyard to find Shao Wanru.
In Piaoyun Courtyard, Shao Wanru frowned slightly thinking about what had just happened. It was strange, very strange!
Why did the Zhao family send pastry recipes, and why such a large kitchen actually thought the pastries were very good and didn't raise any objections? It was really strange.
Even if there is something wrong with these pastries, and it is my fault, who will benefit? The third lady's body is destined to make it impossible for her to do everything. Among the young ladies in the house who have not yet left the government, do any of them want to get involved in the management of the house?
Shao Jie'er? It doesn't look like her, she must be a concubine with an unfair name, especially when there are so many legitimate daughters in the house.
Shao Caihuan? Even if she wanted to take care of her current appearance, she would be powerless. A woman's appearance was damaged, and the most important thing to do right now was to take good care of herself. How could she care so much about it.
Shao Cailing, that’s even less the case.
So who is plotting against me secretly? It couldn't be Zhao Xiran, a newlywed bride, right?
Although Shao Wanru found it untrustworthy, she probably kept it in mind for the time being. It wasn't that she was too suspicious. She died so cowardly in her last life, but she didn't even know who killed her in the end. In the eyes of my heart, I can't say that I am filled with hatred again.
"Miss, the third lady came over crying and said she wanted to see you!" Qu Le hurriedly came in to report.
Shao Wanru pondered for a moment and nodded: "Invite her in!"
Qu Le stepped back to invite someone, and a hint of sadness flashed in Shao Wanru's eyes. Shao Caihuan came at this time, most likely because of what happened before.
Judging from Shao Caihuan's behavior today, Shao Caihuan must be involved in what happened in the outer courtyard today.
Yujie went to the door and raised the curtain, and Shao Caihuan came in while crying. Once inside, Yujie lowered the curtain, and Shao Wanru stood up and said lightly: "Third sister, please sit down!"
No matter what, Shao Caihuan is her third cousin.
"Fifth sister, please fifth sister, please save me, save my mother!" Shao Caihuan fell to his knees and knelt down.
Shao Wanru avoided it with great dexterity, frowned slightly, and said displeasedly: "What do you mean by third sister? You are my third sister, and you are also the third young lady of the Duke's mansion. How can you kneel to me like this? If you let me When people saw it, they thought I was bullying you! Third sister, just have something to say, why should you act like this!"
Shao Wanru was a little angry and spoke a little harshly.
But Shao Caihuan also knew not to anger Shao Wanru at this time, so she no longer refused. Qu Le came over to help her up. After standing up, she wiped her tears and said: "Third sister, I really don't mean any harm. I just let people give her away." I drank some alcohol that may be intoxicating, and the amount is not large. Others generally won’t get drunk. At most, His Highness King Chen is drunk, and he will be fine if he sleeps!”
"Third sister has a grudge against His Highness King Chen, so you want to harm His Highness King Chen?" Shao Wanru's voice turned cold.
"No...it's not..." Shao Caihuan still wanted to struggle.
"No, why did Third Sister get His Highness Chen Wang drunk?" Shao Wanru pressed hard without allowing her to argue too much.
"I...I actually...actually have other meanings..." Shao Caihuan stammered. This kind of thing is really difficult for her daughter who has not left the court, especially when there are two maids of Shao Wanru in the house. Now, I couldn't help but blush all over my face, feeling ashamed and ashamed.
"What else does Third Sister mean? I'd better say it clearly. I really can't guess what Third Sister's intention is. If the Queen Mother in the palace knew about it, she might not even have time to reason with Third Sister!"
Shao Wanru's long eyelashes fluttered twice, his eyes became colder and colder, and his delicate little face was covered with frost.
She was several years younger than Shao Caihuan, but her aura at this time shocked Shao Caihuan. His lips trembled twice, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Fifth sister, it's all my fault. It's my Highness, Prince Xiao Xiangchen, but this It was not my intention, Zhao Xiran chose me to do this, and the wine seemed to have been tampered with after that, otherwise even if the two princes drank it, they would not have gotten into a fight!"
The third lady had already warned Shao Caihuan, and with Shao Wanru's warning just now, Shao Caihuan did not dare to hide anything anymore, and told the whole story regardless of his own shame.
"Sister-in-law?" Shao Wanru's eyes narrowed slightly, falling on Shao Caihuan, and said with unclear meaning.
Thinking that Shao Wanru didn't believe it, Shao Caihuan became anxious and said hurriedly: "This is true. The last time His Highness King Chen came over, the wife of Zhao Shangshu and Zhao Xiran were also there. Do you remember? ?”
Shao Caihuan also hated Zhao Xiran deeply at this time. The words of the third lady made her realize that she might have really fallen for Zhao Xiran. Of course, she would say something at this meeting, for fear that Shao Wanru would not believe it and deliberately tell the story of what happened. In addition, the correct time and address were stated clearly.
After she finished speaking, Shao Wanru pondered for a moment and nodded, agreeing with Shao Caihuan's point of view. Shao Caihuan breathed a sigh of relief, but Shao Wanru's next words made her heart immediately rise again.
"Third sister, even if you can understand it, others will definitely think that this is what third sister or third aunt means. If people know that third sister has such an idea, I am afraid that third sister will not have to get married in the future, and not even just third sister. The fourth sister is the same, and the third aunt is not doing well with my grandmother!"
Shao Wanru said calmly.
After saying this, Shao Caihuan's body softened and his face turned as pale as snow. This was what she was most afraid of. This was why she had no evidence and did not dare to bite Zhao Xiran.
Even if Zhao Xiran said it, it wouldn't be a big deal. Her words sounded like advice, not to mention that she couldn't talk about Xiao Xiang's brother-in-law.
Even her own grandmother couldn't say that Shao Caihuan had always known about her grandmother's preference.
The mother may even be sent to rest because of poor upbringing.
After all, Shao Caihuan was not a scheming person. At this time, he was already panicking. Shaking his hands and feet, he asked Shao Wanru for advice: "Fifth sister, what should we do now? This... what should we do!"
She has no idea now, she just wants to get away well with her father, mother and family.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, even His Highness Prince Chen. She would rather marry into an ordinary family and seek peace for the rest of her life. At this time, all the thoughts she had were false. She just wanted peace and harmony.
"Third Sister, did you really ask someone to put something else into the wine?" Shao Wanru asked. Someone must have tampered with this matter.
Shao Caihuan is the cause, then who is the other one? Zhao Xiran? This is unlikely. Even if Zhao Xiran can place a few servants in the mansion, it is impossible to arrange such manpower. Since Shao Caihuan has ulterior motives, the person who sent the wine is either her confidant or the confidant of the third lady.
It is basically impossible for such a confidant to be bribed by Zhao Xiran.
"I don't have it. I really don't have it. Even though Fifth Sister, I'm wishful thinking, I don't dare to really put anything in it. His Highness, King Chen, is famous for his poor health. If it's really because of what's in it, I'll make a fuss." If something big happens, the entire Xingguo Palace may be buried with him, I don’t even dare to think about it!"
Shao Caihuan wiped away tears and shook his head.
She really didn't dare to do such a thing, and she just hoped that King Chen could help him to rest after he got drunk. As for the rest, she really didn't think about anything else.
After drinking, the two of you lie down together, tear your clothes to pieces, and then let others see you.
Anyway, she is just a concubine, so it doesn't matter if her reputation suffers a little loss. Besides, the other party is still the grandson of a phoenix.
Seeing Shao Caihuan shaking his head in refusal, Shao Wanru fluttered his long eyelashes twice, hiding the deep doubts in his eyes. It is certain that someone has done something about this matter. On the basis of Shao Caihuan's tampering, if it is not someone from the house, Then there is another possibility...
"Fifth sister, please help me. Tell His Highness King Chen clearly about this matter. I...I won't dare to do it again, never again!" Shao Caihuan begged.
"Third sister, I still don't know how to deal with this matter. I haven't gone out since I returned to Piaoyun Courtyard. I don't know what my grandmother and second uncle are thinking." Shao Wanru shook his head and said, she said this matter She couldn't do everything, she was just the unmarried fifth lady of Duke Xingguo's palace, and she didn't have that much power.
"Then... what should I do? I... I really didn't mean it... and I didn't do anything else. The second uncle wants to send all the servants to the palace for interrogation and training by the emperor's people. Fifth sister , what should I do, what should I do?" Shao Caihuan looked at Shao Wanru in despair.
"Send them all to the palace and let the emperor handle them?" Shao Wanru's heart moved.
"Yes, they said they were all sent to the palace." Shao Caihuan said with a cry. She was so panicked that she was at a loss. She only hoped that Shao Wanru could reach out and give her a hand.
"The reason why Third Sister sent the wine should be fair, right? There won't be any omissions?" Shao Wanru asked with a normal expression.
"It's very permissible. There won't be any omissions. It's just that mother sent good wine to the three highnesses. There's really nothing else. Even though it was mother's people who sent the wine, she thought mother wanted to please the three highnesses." Shao Caihuan was at this time. The organization is quite clear, I thought while crying.
"That's the case, Third Sister, there is no need to panic. You don't know about this matter, and neither does Third Aunt. Third Aunt is in charge of the affairs in the backyard. It is very possible that some servants will turn to the old master!" Shao Wan Ruyi! He pointedly reminded Shao Caihuan.
The so-called old owner, of course, refers to the second wife, the wife of Duke Xingguo, the Jiang family. Of course, the Jiang family is not here now, and it is basically impossible to be the Jiang family. So who else in the second room counts as the old owner?
Who wants to take away this stewardship?
Where does a newlywed bride come from with such a menacing attitude? This is what Shao Wanru can't figure out the most right now. Even if he wants to seize power, this is not the time...
Is Zhao Xiran so eager to control the backyard?
