Chapter 203 Persecution (1)
Yuchen is the hostess of the palace. Although it has only been more than two months, the palace is under her control. So when she heard Nanny Gui say that Yuxi had suffered from an old illness and was taken away unconsciously by Mrs. Ye, her face turned cold. When she found out that Nanny Tian was seriously injured and unconscious, accompanied by two comatose maidservants of unknown origin, Yuchen's whole body was in a state of distress.
Nanny Gui walked in and said with a very ugly face: "Princess, I have already asked. The fourth girl had lunch and was going to go back with her grandma. But Nanny Tian pretended to be in your name, Wangfei, and said that there is something Wanting to give it to the fourth girl, she called the fourth girl back to the inner courtyard. Tian Nai is the person who serves you personally, Wangfei, and neither the grandma nor the fourth girl doubted it. It didn't take long for the fourth girl to be unconscious and was buried by purple. Jin went out to find her grandma with her back on her back."
There is no need to guess about the serious injuries of Nanny Tian and the two maidservants, Yuchen knew that it was Zijin's masterpiece. There are very few people who know about Zijin's martial arts, and Yuchen happens to be one of them.
Nanny Gui added, and said: "I've already given orders. Anyone who dares to say a word will be beaten to death with a stick." Dong Tian's mother is only Song Guifei.
Yuchen asked Nanny Gui: "Mommy, what do you think of this time? Why did the noble concubine want Yuxi to die?" Yuxi never entered the palace, and she has been staying in the mansion these days, so it is impossible to offend her. Concubine's. So this Yuchen thinks it should not be Yuxi's reason, but something else.
Yuchen's foundation is too shallow. After all, he has only been married for more than two months. It is already very good to be able to control Prince Jing's Mansion. How can he extend his hand to the palace.
Nanny Gui hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, there were rumors that the princess will choose a son-in-law in this imperial examination, but more than ten days have passed since the palace examination, and there has been no movement."
Yuchen reacted quickly, and said, "You mean that Qinxin has a crush on Chen Ran?"
Nanny Gui nodded and said, "I've seen the second master of the Chen family too. He is really handsome and handsome. And the princess likes exactly this type of man." To be exact, few girls have seen such a man. will not like it.
Yuchen frowned and said: "What you said is not unreasonable. But even if Qinxin has a crush on Chen Ran, at most Chen Ran and Yuxi will withdraw from the marriage, so it's not a killer." Princess snatching marriage is nothing new, yes This is what everyone is used to. Not to mention men and women who are not married but engaged, even if they are married, the princess will snatch her if she likes it. However, most of these things require the man to withdraw from the marriage or divorce his wife before giving the marriage.
Nanny Gui would tell Yuchen about this because she heard some rumors before that the princess fell in love with the romantic and handsome Tanhualang. At that time, she was still very worried, but after waiting for a few days, everything was calm, and there was no news of the divorce from the Han family, so she thought it was just a rumor, so she let it go. Unexpectedly, it turned out that the imperial concubine and the princess did not give up at all, but had been waiting for the opportunity: "If my guess is correct, the Chen family will definitely not want to retire. Madam, the Chen family is different from ordinary people. Tai Ninghou is the emperor's confidant." My subject, the Prince of Taining is also the confidant of the Ninth Prince, if the Chen family does not want to retire, the imperial concubine and the princess will have nothing to do." The people of the Chen family are not brain twitching, and Chen Ran will not be able to become an official after becoming the princess. The Chen family has a very good future, so there is no need to sacrifice a promising son in exchange for benefits. And the reasons for the refusal are all ready-made, Chen Ran has a fiancée, and she is going to get married soon.
Yuchen's face changed again and again: "The Chen family disagrees with the Lord Shang, so the noble concubine and Qinxin are going to put Yuxi to death?"
Nanny Gui has stayed in the palace for so many years, and she has a little understanding of Concubine Song's temperament, she thinks she is a domineering master: "As long as the fourth girl dies, the concubine can ask the emperor to marry the princess to Chen Ran. At that time, the Chen family will not do it if they don't want to."
Yuchen sneered and said, "I'm just wondering,
Before, it was clear that he would hold a birthday banquet for His Highness in the palace, how could he change his mind? It turned out to be waiting here! "Yuxi died in Prince Jing's Mansion, and Prince Jing's Mansion has to bear the greatest responsibility. But she is also a girl of the Han family, and it is impossible for the Han family to deal with her own family. In the end, this matter will be left alone.
Thinking of this, Yuchen broke into a cold sweat. She knew very well how much the Qiu family and her two cousins loved Yuxi. If Yuxi really died in Prince Jing's Mansion, not only would she not be able to give Yuxi justice, but she would also help cover it up. , when the time comes, the two cousins will definitely split up with her. Her half-brothers were unreliable, and the only ones she could be depended on were her two cousins. If he loses the support of his two cousins, how can he compete with Concubine Song only by relying on Pingqinghoufu.
Nanny Gui knew that Yuchen was full of anger, but it was useless to get angry, the concubine couldn't match up with the concubine for the time being: "Madam, it's only because Miss Si is so unlucky." I thought it was a good marriage, but I didn't expect Because Chen Ran is too good, the princess takes a fancy to him. It can only be said that Master Tong's words are still very effective, and the fourth girl's luck is really bad.
Yuchen said: "Send an imperial physician to Han's house." I don't know how Yuxi is doing now, I hope she is not frightened.
Nanny Gui nodded in agreement. However, she guessed that Yu Xi had just been so frightened in the palace, and she probably became a frightened bird, and she would definitely not believe the imperial doctor who went to the palace: "Your Majesty, what should Tian Nai and those two maids do?"
A look of disgust flashed in Yuchen's eyes: "Don't let them wake up again." If Mother Tian hadn't used her name, with Yuxi's prudence, she would definitely not be able to deceive her. Such a double-minded slave, it is not a pity to die.
Gui Momo nodded, and she also felt that Tian Momo and the two maids could not be woken up: "If they didn't complete the task, even if they died, the noble concubine would not hold them accountable."
Yuchen felt a little tired and said, "Go!" She was short-spirited and couldn't bother her mind. But there are some people who can't see that she is pure, so something like this must happen in the palace. The imperial concubine, you really don't take the child in her belly seriously!
When Yuxi returned to the Duke's Mansion, she hadn't fully recovered, so she finally asked Zi Jin to carry her back to Tao Ranju. Fortunately, the clothes were changed in the car, and the bloody clothes were hidden. Otherwise, appearing in the Duke's mansion covered in blood will not frighten people to death.
Lying on the bed, Yuxi said to Zisu: "If elder brother is in the mansion, please come over here." With her state like this, she can't go to elder brother's academy.
Zisu replied with red eyes: "Okay, I'll go right away." She still doesn't know what happened, why her girl came back like this after she went to fetch something.
As soon as Zisu left the yard, she saw Qiu Shi walking quickly.
Seeing Zisu, Qiu quickly asked, "What happened to Yuxi?" She was frightened and hurried over when she heard her mother-in-law report that Yuxi couldn't even walk and was carried into the yard by the maid.
Zi Su shook her head and said, "I don't know what's going on."
After hearing this, Qiu Shi didn't have time to criticize Zisu for not doing her best, so she hurried into the house. The maid didn't know, so she asked the person involved. Entering the house, when Qiu Shi saw Yuxi, she first asked about Yuxi's physical condition, seeing that Yuxi's body was only a little stiff, and other things were fine, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Yuxi, why did you become like this? "
When Qiu heard that Nanny Tian was going to kill Yuxi, she felt incredible: "Why did Nanny Tian kill you? You have no grievances with her, why did you do such a murderous thing?" The two had no intersection at all. , there can be no enmity at all.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "I don't know either, so I want to ask my elder brother to find out what's going on?" I'm afraid that Princess Qinxin fell in love with Chen Ran, and the Chen family didn't want to withdraw their marriage, so she became a Princess Qinxin has a thorn in her flesh, and she wished she could deal with it quickly. Apart from this, she couldn't think of any other reasons why Tian Nanny wanted to kill her.
Qiu Shi nodded her head: "Let your elder brother investigate this matter. I want to see who is so ruthless, killing people in the palace under the clear sky and broad daylight."
Ye's face was a little stiff beside her, and she was thinking about it on the way. But after thinking about it, she felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. In all likelihood, the person in the palace is involved in this matter. After all, Nanny Tian was the one who gave it to Yuchen, and it was impossible for Yuchen to kill Yuxi. If it really has something to do with that person, what will the Duke's Mansion do to contend with that person. Therefore, there is no reason for Yu Xi's matter this time.
Yuxi said: "Mother, this matter will be very complicated, so the fact that I was assassinated in the palace cannot be spread. If someone asks, Mother will say that my old illness has relapsed."
Qiu Shihu said with a straight face: "No way. Your wedding will be in ten days or so. It would be too unlucky to say that your old illness has relapsed. The Marquis of Taining knows, what do you think?" Yuxi is an unlucky person, otherwise why would her old illness relapse before marriage! And it will make the Chen family suspect that Yuxi is not in good health!
Yu Xi smiled bitterly and said: "Mother, we used this excuse when we were in the palace, and it is impossible to change it." If her guess is true, it is impossible for the Chen family to keep their marriage. She doesn't think about marriage anymore, she just wants to save her own life first, and marriage is not as important as life.
The matter has come to this point, Qiu Shi is no longer willing, and has no other way: "I will explain it to Mrs. Tai Ninghou, I hope she won't mind."
Yuxi's eyes turned cold when she heard this. The Han family didn't know about this matter, so didn't the Chen family know about it? However, the members of the Chen family knew that Princess Qinxin had taken a fancy to Chen Ran and wanted Chen Ran to be the Lord, but they concealed the news and did not tell them, otherwise today would not have happened.
Yuxi knew the behavior of the Chen family without guessing, it was just because he was afraid that the people in the Duke's Mansion would get the news and go to withdraw the marriage, when the time came, Chen Ran could only honor the Lord.
It was also at this time that Yu Xi realized why Chen Ran's fiancée in his previous life died of illness not long after his palace examination. What died of illness, 100% of the girl was killed by Concubine Song and Princess Qinxin. Fortunately, she still thought that Chen Ran was a kind and righteous man who had kept filial piety for his fiancée for three years. It turned out that the truth was so cruel.
