Chapter 110 If you and your uncle hadn’t been together for a long time, would your affair have been discovered?
There is no wall that is impenetrable.
The news of Prime Minister Xu's affair with the wife of Marquis Hu Ning quickly spread to every corner of the imperial farm.
The eldest princess asked all the other women in the courtyard to leave first, and had Yu taken to another courtyard to calm down. Fearing that she might do something stupid, the eldest princess also called several ladies from aristocratic families who were on good terms with Yu to look after her.
Yu was covered in blood and was taken away with a dazed look on her face.
Chen Yingyu went down with everyone else. She didn't know where to go. There seemed to be countless dark and pointed gazes in every place. Chen Yingyu took Qingya and hid in the pavilion by the lake.
On the way, the drug that Xiao Yu gave Yu Shi became more and more effective. Yu Shi first grabbed the wife of the Minister of Works, who was on good terms with her, and said, "My husband is having an affair with my sister."
"When did they get together? They kept it a secret from me, they kept it a secret from me?"
After saying this, Yu grabbed the wife of the Minister of Justice and said, "I treated Yu Xiangqun as my own sister, but what about her? She actually seduced her own brother-in-law!"
The Yu family of Shencheng is a family of contemporary great scholars and upright people. Although it is not as famous as the Xu family, it can also occupy a leading position among the aristocratic families in Daliang. The head of the Yu family is now Yu's biological brother. Yu is the legitimate daughter of this generation, and little Yu is just an unfavored illegitimate daughter.
Xiao Yu's biological mother died young. Thanks to her deep affection for the Yu sisters, she grew up in luxury and her status was no less than that of a legitimate daughter.
Seeing Yu's crazy appearance now, several ladies felt a little bit sorry. They were all the mistresses of the house, and there was bound to be some dirty things in the house. But they never thought that their husbands would have an affair with their own sister.
Even if it is placed in an ordinary person's home, it is difficult to accept.
The more Yu thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she turned around and was about to run back.
After Xu Shibing fell into a coma, the imperial physician arrived quickly and used pinching and acupuncture to wake him up.
The room was in chaos, with blood everywhere. Xu Shibing's face was pale, and his usually clean-handed, gentle and elegant appearance was completely torn off. His hands were shaking as he put on his clothes. It was rare for Prime Minister Xu to look so embarrassed.
In the corner, Xiao Yu was shivering like a quail with her clothes disheveled.
Xu Shibing took a deep breath, thinking about the scene and public opinion he would face next.
His vision went dark for a while.
Xiao Yu's voice trembled: "What should we do?..."
Xu Shibin's figure swayed. He did not respond to Xiao Yu's words, but asked the young eunuch: "Where is my wife?"
Xu Shibin was still the Prime Minister, so the young eunuch didn't dare to be careless and said, "Madam Xu was a little upset and was taken away."
When Xu Shibing walked out of the door, the gazes of the maids and eunuchs in the yard were like knives dipped in hot oil.
At one look, Xu Shibing's face turned paler.
Xiao Yu followed behind.
His Majesty has been informed of this matter and has handed the matter over to Princess Yude for handling.
The two had messy hair and disheveled clothes. Thinking of what happened inside, Princess Yude's eyes hurt and she frowned and said, "Let's change places first."
The onlookers had all left. The eldest princess walked in front, led by several eunuchs, and prepared to go to an empty courtyard near the lake to discuss the matter further.
But as soon as they walked out, they saw Yu running towards them like a madman.
Xu Shibin's face turned pale, and he whispered, "Madam."
The eldest princess frowned but did not move.
Yu slapped Xu Shibin in the face again, and the bandage he had just wrapped started bleeding again. Xu Shibin did not struggle at all, but Yu was so angry that she pushed him into the lake with strength that she didn't know where it came from.
The group was stunned.
The princess sternly said, "Catch Madam Xu."
The eunuchs quickly came to their senses, but it was too late. Little Yu was also pushed down by Yu.
The scene was extremely chaotic.
Two young eunuchs detained Yu, while the rest of the people went to the lake to fish her out.
Yu laughed crazily, "Adulterers and adulterers should die together! You all go to hell!!"
Princess Yude lost her patience and said, "Knock him out."
Yu fell down limply.
While they were still trying to rescue someone, a eunuch hurried over to the princess and whispered, "Your Highness, there's something wrong with the incense in that room."
Princess Yude narrowed her eyes and said, "Find out."
The two people in the lake were quickly rescued. They had inhaled smoke before and were in a state of high excitement. When they fell into the lake, they just drank a few mouthfuls of water and were still conscious.
The two were taken to the empty yard in a very embarrassed manner. Xu Shibing felt unspeakable in his heart, his face was pale and red. This time he felt even more bitter than when he knelt at the palace gate to plead for Xu Yinlin more than four years ago.
The eunuchs quickly found out the truth and brought Chen Yingyu and the maid Qingya over.
Along the way, Xiao Yu didn't say a word. After seeing her daughter, Xiao Yu was overwhelmed with emotion. When she met Chen Yingyu's resistant and disgusted gaze, Xiao Yu's face was full of tears.
"Yingyu, I was wrong. Don't look at me like that."
Chen Yingyu turned her face away and said nothing.
The eldest princess' voice rang out: "Miss Chen, do you have an explanation for what happened today?"
As soon as the words fell, Xu Shibing and Xiao Yu looked at Chen Yingyu in disbelief.
Chen Yingyu's face turned pale, his lips trembled and he couldn't utter a word.
The eldest princess sneered.
At this time, another maid in green walked in from the doorway. She pointed at Qingya and said, "The eldest princess is her. I was sweeping fallen leaves in the woods when I saw that maid sneak into the yard and sneak out again."
The princess glanced at Qingya and asked, "What else did you see?"
The maidservant in green bit her lip and looked at Xu Shibin and Xiao Yushi, pointing her hand and saying, "I saw them both, but we were too far away to hear what they were saying."
The princess threw the teacup in front of Xu Shibing and asked, "Prime Minister Xu and Lady Hu Ning, do you have anything else to say?"
The scene froze for a moment, and the eldest princess suddenly chuckled. "Logically, these are merely the family affairs of ministers, and I do not wish to discuss them further. However, Chen Yingyu dared to plot against the emperor in the manor, defying his grace. What is his motive? Don't blame me for being cruel."
Qingya didn't want to do this in the first place, she was forced into it by Chen Yingyu.
Qingya hugged the eldest princess's thigh and cried bitterly, "Your Highness, I was just following the young lady's orders. She likes Prince Qi, and her goal is all for him! She told me to take Prince Qi's daughter away first, then lead Prince Qi to the courtyard, and then make it a done deal..."
Before she could finish her words, Qingya was kicked away by the eldest princess.
Chen Yingyu hesitated: "Qingya——"
Princess Yude came in front of Chen Yingyu and slapped her in the face.
"You are such a bastard! Back when we were in the Princess's Villa, I let you off the hook. But you still dare to resort to such despicable tactics! This time, I will not let you off easily!"
Chen Yingyu stroked her face and knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly: "Your Highness, I know I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again. I just like Prince Qi too much. Your Highness, please forgive me. I really won't dare to do it again."
Xu Shibing and Xiao Yu were already stunned. Xiao Yu grabbed Chen Yingyu's hair and slapped her in the face again.
"You bastard, you've killed us all!"
Chen Yingyu's cheeks were red and swollen, and she waved away Xiao Yu's hand.
"You blame me? If you and your uncle hadn't been hooking up for a long time, would your affair have been discovered?!"
