Chapter 99: One Hundred Thousand Whys

Zhu Xuntao came slowly, her graceful figure formed a sharp contrast with Zhu Yingyan who spoke sharply.

It seemed that just because Zhu Xuntao married someone, the layer of ashes covering her was finally wiped off, and she shone brightly.

On the contrary, Zhu Yingyan, who was outstanding and eye-catching earlier, didn't know what was wrong with her.

Today, she acted without any care, and her performance was completely unlike that of a lady from a noble family.

Generally, girls from small families who are more particular can behave more generously and appropriately than Zhu Yingyan.

"Elder sister."

Zhu Xuntao was still willing to give Zhu Yingyan some face and didn't call Zhu Yingyin by her name directly.

Zhu Yingyan looked unhappy:

"Zhu Xuntao, the servants of the Marquis' Mansion are so disrespectful to me. Is it because of your order or because they don't take you seriously?"

The old woman opened her mouth to explain.

It was not her who was rude first, but Miss Zhu who was disrespectful to the Crown Prince's Consort first.

She couldn't stand it, so she reminded Miss Zhu to pay attention to the rules.

As for the rest, she did nothing. Miss Zhu wanted to wrongly accuse her.

Zhu Xuntao raised her hand: "You can go down."

This is a mess. Zhu Xuntao neither pursued Zhu Yingyan's aggressiveness nor took into account the old woman's audacity.

This matter should be punished with fifty strokes of the cane, and each person should bear half of the responsibility.

Zhu Xuntao was too lazy to punish the cane, so she simply wiped it off and wiped it off as if it were chalk writing.

"Thank you, Crown Princess."

The old woman's eyes lit up, thinking that Zhu Xuntao was defending herself.

Humph, no matter how rich the Shangshu's daughter is, this is the Yongjing Marquis' Mansion.

How can the Shangshu Mansion be compared with the Yongjing Marquis' Mansion.

It's really ridiculous that Miss Zhu wants to use the Crown Princess's influence to step on the face of their Marquis' Mansion .

Regardless of Zhu Yingyan's attitude, the old woman left leisurely, not taking Zhu Yingyan seriously at all, which made Zhu Yingyan furious.

All the outsiders left, leaving only the two sisters and two maids. Zhu Yingyan spoke without hiding anything:

"Zhu Xuntao, I underestimated you after all."

After a small test just now, Zhu Yingyan had the answer in her heart.

Zhu Xuntao was not as honest and dull as she thought, and had no scheming at all.

It turns out that the most secretive and scheming person in Zhu Mansion is Zhu Xuntao.

"Why do you say that, elder sister?"

Zhu Xuntao did not admit that she was scheming.

If she really wanted to scheme against Zhu Yingyan and Madam Sun, she would risk her life and death

. As the heroine, Zhu Yingyan would not be so intact today.

She is indeed a cannon fodder, but she is a combat-capable cannon fodder. If she can't kill the heroine, she can at least make her suffer.

In the past, she was quite gentle and treated Zhu Yingyan and her biological mother as her relatives.

If someone else always makes trouble for her, let's see how she will deal with them.

"You just showed off a little bit of your skills, isn't that enough to prove yourself?"

Zhu Yingyan was so angry that she held the cup tightly but did not drop it.

"Wasn't it my elder sister who showed off her skills? Why me?"

Seeing that the cup tightly held by Zhu Yingyan was still intact, Zhu Xuntao smiled knowingly:

"Given my elder sister's temper, the cup can still be in her hand. This shows that my elder sister is very good at controlling her temper."

"You can't tell the difference. This is the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion, not your Zhu Mansion."

"If that's the case, why do you act so stupid and foolish in front of that woman?"

"Eldest sister, you are so mean. You want to set a trap for me and let me jump into it."

Zhu Yingyan didn't give up in the end. She didn't want her to have an easy life in the Yongjing Marquis' Mansion, so she tried to find trouble for her.

She wanted to make her lose face in front of the servants of the Marquis' Mansion.

How can a master who has no face in front of his servants get the respect of his servants and become a real master?

Zhu Yingyan wants to make her, the prince's consort, a decoration.

This method has a bit of the taste of hurting oneself and hurting the enemy.

But, it works.

After she marries Xiao Jingzhan, Zhu Yingyan has nothing to do with the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion.

As long as she ruins her image in the servants' hearts, as for Zhu Yingyan herself, it doesn't matter. She doesn't care.

Anyway, he is not her servant.

So, who dares to say that the heroine Zhu Yingyan is really stupid? Even if she is reborn, she has not made any progress.

As a person, Zhu Yingyan has made progress.

"What a pity, you found out."

Zhu Yingyan was unwilling to accept it. Among so many ways to deal with it, Zhu Xuntao chose to use the best one.

If it wasn't so, Zhu Yingyan wouldn't be so angry.

She just deliberately made trouble for the mother-in-law just to embarrass Zhu Xuntao.

No matter whether Zhu Xuntao punished the mother-in-law or persuaded her, it would only make Zhu Xuntao lose face and lose face in front of others.

The situation just now was indeed just like what Zhu Xuntao did. Doing nothing was the best way to deal with it.

Zhu Yingyan wanted to make trouble, but Zhu Xuntao's calm performance directly suppressed her.

"Zhu Xuntao, you pretended to be very good in front of me and my mother."

"No wonder you just told me that you didn't want to marry Xiao Jingzhan, but wanted to marry Princess Yu."

"That day, the emperor's imperial edict of gift paper arrived at home. This is a real good trick."

"You deceived me and didn't cause trouble to you. You just dragged the opportunity and waited for the imperial edict."

"Zhu Xuntao, you are so scheming, it's really scary!"

Zhu Yingyan's fear is not only exaggerated, but also a little bit of truth in it.

From childhood to adulthood, Zhu Yingyan felt that Zhu Xuntao was cowardly and bullied, spineless, and like a rotten mud.

Even if she stepped on him, she was afraid that Zhu Xuntao's muddy feet would dirty her shoes.

But such a person completely deceived her eyes and played her in the palm of her hand.

After realizing this, Zhu Yingyan was glad that Zhu Xuntao got married and she didn't have to live under the same roof with Zhu Xuntao anymore.

Otherwise, Zhu Xuntao, who was hiding in the dark, wanted to harm her.

Could she escape without any defense?

With such sigh, Zhu Yingyan's face turned pale and her tone was stern:

"Zhu Xuntao, answer me a question honestly."

So that's it, is it really like this? !

"What's the question? Ask it, and I'll listen."

She is not "One Hundred Thousand Whys" and cannot guarantee that she will answer whatever Zhu Yingyan asks.

She doesn't need to make promises about things she can't do.

Yes, she is such a good person.

"Last time, I was poisoned in my own home, but it was you who did it?"

"Did you poison me?"

Although it was a question, Zhu Yingyan became more and more certain, and believed that Zhu Xuntao was the murderer.

Zhu Xuntao smiled and said nothing while drinking tea.

Zhu Yingyan seemed to have reacted, but she reacted too slowly, and not thoroughly enough.

If Zhu Yingyan really wanted to understand, she shouldn't have asked this question at this moment.

Zhu Xuntao was calm, but Qiuyue was not.

She glared at Zhu Yingyan angrily:

"Miss, don't slander me."
