Late at night, in the palace.
Xiao Jingxian couldn't sleep at all and paced back and forth in the bedroom until Zhou Dahai came in to reply and handed him a secret report.
Xiao Jingxian immediately became alert and opened it quickly to read.
After reading it, he was completely relieved.
Prince Ding's mansion was in such a mess. His nephew was disrespectful to Lin Yue, and even a wet nurse could arrogantly say that Lin Yue was just a concubine.
But what is certain is that Xiao Huaiqing cannot hear Lin Yue’s inner thoughts at all, otherwise he would not have gone against her like this!
Since Xiao Huaiqing can't do it, what about the fourth brother? Can the fourth brother do it?
Xiao Jingxian frowned and said to Zhou Dahai while holding the secret report, "Go to the Queen's Palace tomorrow and ask her to pay attention to Princess Ding's situation. If anyone disrespects Princess Ding, they will be severely punished."
Zhou Dahai only felt that his throat was very dry, as if there was a fire about to burn.
In his haste, he didn't even make a sound.
Xiao Jingxian said unhappily: "I'm talking to you."
Zhou Dahai quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, how about you find someone else to go? What if the Empress misunderstands..."
Xiao Jingxian knew what Zhou Dahai was worried about the moment he heard it. He was so angry that he kicked him and said angrily, "You bastard, am I such a beast that I can't even let my own brother and sister-in-law go?"
"I'm going to misunderstand you because I replaced you as the Queen, you shameless bastard, get out of here!"
"Yes, yes, I am a bastard. I will get out of here right now. I will get out of here right now!" Zhou Dahai was so scared that he peed and shit, and quickly disappeared into the inner hall.
But Xiao Jingxian was furious. He just wanted to save his own life and the destiny of the Wei Dynasty. How could he be misunderstood as wanting to attack his brother's wife?
This old guy Zhou Dahai deserves to die!
Next time he will definitely bring Zhou Dahai to Lin Yue to listen to her thoughts and find out how Zhou Dahai died!
snort! !
…
Lin Yue's mother-in-law, the Queen Mother, lived in the palace, and she thought she would be able to sleep until she woke up naturally.
As a result, just as the sky was getting light, voices were heard in the banquet room. Although they were deliberately lowered, they still reached her ears one after another.
Just as she was about to turn over and continue sleeping, Nanny Qin came in and whispered, "Princess, it's time to get up. The Crown Prince's Consort is here."
"Let her wait."
Lin Yue yawned and continued to sleep.
At this time, Nanny Qin continued, "Old Madam Jiang from the Zhenguo Mansion is here too."
Lin Yue woke up immediately. Old Madam Jiang was Xiao Jingyun's ex-mother-in-law and also Lin Yue's aunt. Otherwise, she would not have met Xiao Huaiqing in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and fallen in love with him.
But it was so early, if Su Yingyue hadn't reported the news, Lin Yue wouldn't believe it.
She originally wanted to give Su Yingyue some dignity, but since Su Yingyue didn't want it, don't blame her.
After washing up, Lin Yue walked out.
Sure enough, I saw Old Madam Jiang sitting by the side drinking tea with a cold expression.
Su Yingyue stood up and saluted: "The daughter-in-law pays her respects to the mother."
Lin Yue nodded and said, "Since you and the old lady are here, please stay in the main room for dinner."
After saying that, he prepared to move to the flower hall.
Madam Jiang looked at her and said angrily, "You are becoming more and more unruly. Was this how I taught you when we were in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?"
Lin Yue smiled and said, "I grew up in Jinling. I went to Beijing with my parents to visit my aunt when I was thirteen. I stayed at your house for three days before leaving."
"You taught me?"
Madam Jiang's expression grew increasingly grim, and she sarcastically asked, "When did you become so sharp-tongued? I heard you even had Huai Qing beaten up?"
Lin Yue nodded: "Yes, I did."
Madam Jiang stood up suddenly and said, "How could you hit Huaiqing? You are just his stepmother, and he is the prince. What qualifications do you have to hit him?"
"Lin Yue, if it weren't for our Zhenguo Mansion, could you have become Princess Ding? You've grown so powerful now that you don't even take us seriously. But I still have something on you. If you don't believe me, I'll go to the Queen Mother and file a complaint against you, ruining your reputation!"
When Su Yingyue heard this, she looked at Madam Jiang in surprise, and seemed very interested in the so-called handle.
At this time, Lin Yue looked through the window and saw Xiao Huaiqing and Luo Qingyu coming to pay their respects. Her eyes flashed and she quickly sat down.
Madam Jiang thought her threat had succeeded, so she continued, "You must understand your status. I asked you to marry into Prince Ding's mansion because I wanted you to take good care of Huaiqing. Now Yingyue has also come in. When they give birth to your grandchildren, you will have a lively family. In the future, when you are old, they will also respect you."
"But if you persist in your wrongdoings and continue to prevent them from consummating their marriage, secretly using mother-in-law's money to bully Yingyue, don't blame me for being cruel to you."
[You are not cruel to me, you are obviously cruel to your own grandson and his wife.]
Lin Yue sneered, "Aren't you just going to bring up what happened back then?"
Outside the curtain, the big feet stopped steadily.
Madam Jiang didn't expect Lin Yue to dare to bring it up, and she angrily said, "Lin Yue, do you still have any shame?"
Lin Yue retorted, "Am I shameless or are you? At the birthday party, you knew that Xiao Huaiqing had mistakenly identified the embroidery. The "moon" on it was embroidered by me, not Su Yingyue. But you didn't expose it, and instead misled Xiao Huaiqing."
"You thought that since my father had entered the Ministry of Revenue, the worst that could happen to me was that I would become Xiao Huaiqing's concubine. But who would have thought that my parents were more stubborn than you and wouldn't let me enter the palace as a concubine."
"You lied to me and told me that he had feelings for me, but he couldn't come forward because of his engagement. You asked me to write him a letter and ask him to ask the Queen Mother. Maybe she could make me his principal wife."
"The handle you're talking about should be that letter, right?"
"Don't say that I was young and ignorant back then, and was at your mercy. Now that I'm married, you're still using this to threaten me. Are you sure you can handle the people and things that will be involved?"
"You..." Old Madam Jiang was shocked and stood up suddenly, her face flushed.
Lin Yue ignored her and looked at Su Yingyue. "Do you think she's really thinking about you? She told me that your Su family is just a civil servant, and besides a good reputation, you can't even get a dowry of 120 sets. She looked down on you as the Crown Prince's Consort, which is why she did so many things behind your back. It's ridiculous that you're actually looking for her support now!"
Su Yingyue suddenly looked at Madam Jiang, wanting to know whether the matter was true or not.
Madam Jiang quickly explained, "Don't listen to her nonsense. She's trying to sow discord. If I didn't like you, how could I possibly take you to live in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?"
Lin Yue sneered: "Then why didn't you tell Xiao Huaiqing that he recognized the wrong person? Why did you ask me to write a letter to Xiao Huaiqing? You keep saying it's for me, for Xiao Huaiqing, and for Su Yingyue, but in fact, you are doing it for yourself!"
"You must hold on to your grandson tightly, fearing that one day he will turn against you and stop caring for the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion and your son who is a spendthrift and insolvent."
"Shut up, shut up!" Old Madam Jiang roared in frustration.
Just at this moment, Xiao Huaiqing suddenly lifted the curtain and came in.
