Tao Yuwei hid behind the crowd, stood on tiptoe and looked at the maid kneeling on the ground, speechless.
[Oh wow! I knew this illegitimate cousin had a trick up her sleeve.]
"I can't let the maid succeed. Otherwise, I'll have to bear the bad reputation of having an affair with a man outside my family and marry my cousin, my concubine, to the Prince of Han's mansion."
Wu stood there gracefully, and was furious when she heard that her daughter was going to be married to the King of Han, who was originally a palace maid.
Wei'er has become a princess of the second rank and no longer needs to marry any prince.
If the second house's people succeed in this plan, their General's Mansion will only be suspected by the emperor, and their reputation of being more meritorious than the emperor will be confirmed, which will put them in a passive situation of being roasted in the fire and cooked in the hot oil.
It is pushing their entire family into the fire pit.
Shallow-sighted idiot!
If something really happened and the lintel of the general's mansion collapsed, could the second branch, who was also a member of the general's mansion, be spared?
She was wrong. People's hearts are unpredictable. Some people have lost their bottom line for their own interests.
At today's family dinner, I kept hearing my daughter's thoughts. She didn't believe in ghosts or gods, but her words were well verified.
No matter who dares to do dirty things in front of her, she will make them never return the favor.
If Tao Yuwei knew what Wu was thinking, she would definitely nod in agreement.
That's right. In the original book, after Tao Yuwei was successfully plotted against by her cousin from the second house, the first house family of the General's Mansion began to be secretly exploited by many people. After they lost their value, none of them ended up well.
The second branch's family contributed a lot to the overall situation. When the first branch's family fell, the second branch was not only not implicated, but instead enjoyed great success and became the new emperor's confidant.
The maid kneeling on the ground, seeing that Wu had not responded for a long time, cried anxiously and reminded:
"Madam, if anything happens to my young lady, I will be unable to explain to you, Madam!"
Tao Yuwei felt that her cousin's maid was very smart and knew how to use the old lady in the mansion to pressure her mother.
Mrs. Wu had seen many storms and waves, so she said calmly, "Your young lady felt unwell at the banquet and is resting in Yuwei Courtyard. Someone, take her to see her young lady."
Without waiting for the maid to speak again, the two old women behind Wu powerfully grabbed the maid's arms from both sides and rushed out of the yard.
Tao Manqing, who was tied up in the room, heard that Wu in the yard was deceiving everyone. She easily ruined her plan and took her maid away.
His eyes were blazing with anger, and he couldn't hide his resentment.
Her aunt ruined her good marriage, just wait and see, she will not let the eldest wife have an easy time.
In the courtyard.
Tao Yuwei was very satisfied with this way of handling things: [As expected of a beautiful mother who is as capable as any man, she does things quickly and efficiently without any delay!]
[Mother, remember to have someone give my eldest cousin some contraceptive soup, so she doesn't get pregnant with the King of Han's child and affect my reputation!]
In the book, Tao Manqing was able to follow the original owner and marry into the Prince of Han's palace as a concubine because she was pregnant with the Prince of Han's child.
After Tao Manqing became the King of Han's concubine, she took advantage of the fact that she gave birth to the King of Han's first son to take away the original owner's generous dowry and conspired with others to kill the original owner.
Shortly after the original owner's death, the aunt from her maternal grandfather's family sought justice from Tao Manqing. She was slandered for murdering her son and was sentenced to beheading. Before she could reach the execution ground, she committed suicide in the cell out of injustice.
Tao Yuwei decided to meet Tao Manqing later and collect some interest.
If mother hadn't thought of this, she would have found a way to feed Tao Manqing the medicine.
For the safety of her family and loved ones, Tao Manqing must take the medicine.
Mrs. Wu blushed. Hmm, how come Wei'er's mouth became so sweet?
The girl was thoughtful and would never let Manqing affect the reputation of other girls in the mansion.
If she hadn't heard her daughter's inner voice, she would have thought, like those people outside, that Wei'er was arrogant, domineering, and simple-minded.
In the past, she and her daughter had different personalities and could not get along. Whenever they met, they always ended up quarreling.
Wu calmed down and smiled warmly as she chatted with the many female guests, saying, "The stage over at the West Garden has been set up. Let's all go and listen to the opera together!"
These people knew that Wu was the boss in Kyoto circles and that she always kept her word. In fact, they had already guessed who was sleeping with His Royal Highness the King of Han.
However, the owner of the house did not admit it, and they did not see it with their own eyes. Are they going to force him to admit it?
Besides, the General's Mansion is a group of people trusted by the emperor, they cannot afford to offend them, and there is no need to stand up for others.
Before leaving, Wu winked at her personal nanny.
After Wu took these people out of the backyard, Tao Yuwei did not leave.
She saw the old women holding down Tao Manqing, whose hands and feet were tied and whose mouth was blocked, and being carried out of the room.
Tao Yuwei pointed to the room next door and said to the maids, "Take the person to the next room first."
Several maids were people who were used to working for Wu, and they all knew Tao Yuwei's usual temper.
He acts arbitrarily and insists on doing what he wants to do, and he won't listen to advice.
They followed Tao Yuwei's instructions and dragged Tao Manqing into the next room.
As soon as Tao Yuwei walked into the room, the door was closed immediately.
She approached Tao Manqing, glanced at her nonchalantly, and said to the maid next to her, "How dare this maid plot against her master? Slap her in the face!"
"Paji" a slap landed on Tao Manqing's left cheek. The old woman had a strong hand and this one slap made Tao Manqing dizzy.
She stared at Tao Yuwei with eyes wide open in disbelief.
Wasn't this idiot always the closest to her and the one who listened to her the most? How could he lie openly and say that she was a servant?
