Chapter 185 Min Yuexi's Scheme
When she heard the name Tang Yunxiu from He Shi, she decided to destroy him.
In his previous life, this man married Feng Yuerou, the fifth young lady of the Annam Marquis's Mansion. With the support of the Annam Marquis's Mansion, just like Lu Ming had the support of the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion, his career progressed smoothly, and he quickly rose to a high position.
Although Tang Yunxiu and the Annam Earl's Mansion had a falling out due to Tang Yunshi's death.
Ultimately, Tang Yunxiu and Feng Yuerou divorced, but the Annan Marquis's support for Tang Yunxiu did not diminish in the slightest; on the contrary, it increased.
Even the military power of the Annam Earl's Mansion was partially handed over to Tang Yunxiu.
He became the first person to hold both civil and military positions. Although his official positions in both fields were not particularly high, he was successful in both and no one in the court dared to underestimate him!
Many people said that the An'nan Marquis's family was making amends for Feng Yuerou's actions that caused Tang Yunshi's death. Everyone praised the An'nan Marquis's family for their benevolence.
Min Yuexi initially thought so too.
But it wasn't until later that she learned that Tang Yunxiu was actually Lu Ming's distant cousin!
Nevertheless, she still didn't understand why the Marquis of Annan's family had gone to such great lengths to support Tang Yunxiu in her previous life.
It wasn't until her grandmother caused a scene at the Annan Marquis's residence a few days ago, exposing the relationship between the Annan Marquis's residence, the Sun family, and the Lu family, that she realized that Tang Yunxiu's connection with the Annan Marquis's residence wasn't just because of Feng Yuerou! The Lu family was also involved!
However, it is unclear why the Annan Earl's Mansion and the Lu family have such a close relationship.
However, none of this matters.
Importantly, Tang Yunxiu was Lu Ming's right-hand man and an accomplice in destroying the Xuanping Marquis's mansion!
All she knew was that she had to cut off Lu Ming's arm before Tang Yunxiu grew up!
Not only Tang Yunxiu, but everyone related to Lu Ming, everyone who helped Lu Ming plot against the Xuanping Marquis's mansion, she will make them all pay the price!
After hearing Min Yuexi's words, Madam Min Qiao couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.
"So, from the moment you agreed to this marriage with Tang Yunxiu, you were plotting to ruin him?"
Min Yuexi nodded: "I originally planned to deal with him after the wedding, but when Grandmother revealed the feud between the Min family and the Lu family and exposed Aunt He's true identity, I had a new idea."
“Two useless pieces of trash. Killing them would be dirty and troublesome. I might as well make use of them and let them destroy Tang Yunxiu for me.”
Madam Min Qiao looked at Min Yuexi with a complicated expression. "So, from the very beginning, you deliberately plotted against Madam He and her daughter? You deliberately let them know that you were going to marry Min Yuerui into the Sun family, deliberately let them have their freedom, and deliberately gave them the opportunity to get close to Tang Yunxiu?"
Min Yuexi smiled. "Didn't Grandmother already guess?"
“The servants around Aunt He and Min Yue Rui have long since betrayed their masters! Whether they are the loyal servants in their eyes or the servants they have bought with a lot of money, they are actually just following my orders.”
"The information they know is what I want them to know."
"Whether it was discussing with my father about marrying Min Yuerui into the Sun family, or forcing the Sun family to marry Min Yuerui, it was all just an act I put on for them."
"Even Tang Yunxiu came into their sights because I had He Yiniang's maid mention him casually in her ear."
"For example, if the second young lady's betrothed is Young Master Tang... if the second young lady can marry Young Master Tang... and so on."
"Given the choice between the Sun family, who hate the He family to the bone, and the Tang family, who are easy to manipulate, Aunt He could make her choice without even having to think!"
Madam Min looked at Min Yuexi with deep eyes.
She underestimated Min Yuexi.
Previously, when Madam He caused trouble at the entrance of Songhe Hall, she even said that Min Yuexi couldn't even manage the internal affairs of a Marquis's mansion.
Unexpectedly, all of this was done intentionally by Min Yuexi.
Perhaps, when she allowed Mrs. He to come and make a scene at her door, she was also testing her intentions?
Min Yuexi probably wanted to see if she really didn't care about the affairs of the Marquis's mansion.
If she had listened to Madam He and intervened in Tang Yunxiu and Min Yuerui's affairs, Min Yuexi would probably not have handled things the way she did today.
Use Min Yuerui's entire life to ruin Tang Yunxiu.
Tang Yunxiu is ruined, and so is Min Yuerui.
Destroying Min Yuerui would be the greatest revenge against the He family.
Achieving multiple goals at once.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Min Yuexi never intended to actually marry Min Yuerui into the Sun family.
No, it's that the Sun family would never allow Min Yuerui to marry into their family!
Given the current irreconcilable conflict between the two families, the Sun family would be crazy to let Min Yuerui into the family!
If Min Yuexi weren't stupid, she wouldn't have let the relationship between the two families become entangled because of Min Yuerui!
Min Qiao couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of her mouth, "I underestimated you! No wonder you could get Wei Jia to speak well of you in front of me. You do have some skills after all."
"Grandmother, please rest assured, I have no ill intentions in approaching Sister Weijia. I just want to tell you that I will do my best to protect the Marquis's mansion and to protect you."
Min Yuexi spoke sincerely, her eyes filled with determination, and said, "In my past life, my grandmother shouldered the responsibility and burden of protecting the Marquis's mansion. In this life, I will take on that responsibility!"
"In our past life, we all wronged our grandmother. In this life, I will repay her! I will also strive to make everyone who has wronged our grandmother repay her!"
Min Yuexi looked at Min Qiaoshi with utmost sincerity, as if she wanted to offer up all her heartfelt sincerity and passion to Min Qiaoshi.
However, Madam Min simply curled the corners of her lips slightly and said in a nonchalant tone, "You don't need to tell me what you want to do or how you want to do it."
"I don't care."
“I know my grandmother doesn’t care, but I do care.”
Min Yuexi looked dejected, her eyes filled with regret, and her voice tinged with sadness, "I want my grandmother to know that I know I was wrong about what happened in my past life."
"I will try my best to make up for the harm we caused to our grandmother."
"I hope that one day, my grandmother will see my efforts and the changes in everyone in the Marquis's mansion, and then she will forgive us!"
"So, Grandmother, don't despair of me, don't despair of Father, and most importantly, don't despair of the Marquis's mansion."
"OK?"
Faced with Min Yuexi's sincere plea, Madam Min's eyes darkened.
The slight upturn at the corners of her mouth flattened out at that moment.
She looked at Min Yuexi expressionlessly and said coldly, "Alright, you don't need to act in front of me anymore."
Min Yuexi was taken aback.
Then Min Qiaoshi coldly said, "You don't need to show me your abilities to prove that you can protect the Marquis's mansion."
"You don't need to try to move me with family ties or your sincerity."
I know what you mean.
"Don't worry, I said I wouldn't interfere in the affairs of the Marquis's mansion, and I absolutely won't."
"I will not stop others from seeking revenge against the Marquis's mansion, nor will I actively push the Marquis's mansion toward destruction."
"Unless someone deliberately makes things difficult for me!"
"Whether it's the Min family, the Lu family, or the Sun family, as long as they dare to scheme against me or the people around me, I will absolutely not show any mercy!"
Upon hearing Min Qiao's words, Min Yuexi's face turned deathly pale, and a hint of guilt appeared between her brows.
She wasn't actually afraid of the enemies outside; what she truly feared was her grandmother! She was constantly worried that her grandmother might do something to the Marquis's mansion because of what happened in her past life!
Just like the time when the engagement was broken off, my grandmother disregarded my parents' reputation and the dignity of the Marquis's mansion, and caused trouble at the gate of the Prince of Chang'an's mansion.
Just like a while ago, because of the poisoning of Madam Zheng, my grandmother publicly exposed the feud between the Min and Lu families, putting the Marquis's mansion in the eye of the storm.
She feared that her grandmother might do something harmful to the Marquis's mansion again sometime in the future!
Therefore, she took this opportunity to express her feelings to her grandmother, hoping that her grandmother would consider her good intentions and restrain her behavior.
But it was obvious that her grandmother had already seen through her intentions.
So, doesn't her little trick seem particularly ridiculous and comical in front of her grandmother?
