The Queen Mother waved her hand and asked the rough messenger to take Mrs. Xiao down to avoid dirtying the ground on her side.
Generally speaking, when a mother-in-law kills her daughter-in-law, because it is an elder who kills a younger one, the crime will generally be reduced by one level, but there are prerequisites for the reduction. The Xiao family did not kill the Yang family because the Yang family was disobedient and unfilial.
, but purely for money. Su Yueling estimated that he would be sentenced as an ordinary murder. She also specifically asked Yuan Suijun about this. In short, the Xiao family would not be able to escape from this prison.
Jian Chunyin watched her grandmother being taken away, but she didn't dare to say a word. She even wished she could shrink herself to the corner and be forgotten by everyone. It was best to forget that she was the eldest daughter of the Jian family.
.
In the past, she was proud to be educated by her grandmother, but now she desperately hopes to be educated by her stepmother.
The Queen Mother had no intention of interfering in how Xiao should be convicted. She asked Aunt Shi to tell the Emperor about the matter. It would be up to the Emperor to decide how to deal with it.
But Yang Chunxi...she can help her.
The Queen Mother looked at Yang Chunxi and said, "Chunxi, come over to the Ai family."
When Yang Chunxi saw her grandmother being taken away, she felt very complicated. She felt happy that a great revenge had been avenged, but also felt sad that her mother was not worth it.
Hearing the Queen Mother's voice, she suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart and came to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother looked at her with much gentler eyes, "I heard Yueling say before that you are indeed a good child. The Jian family is not worthy of you."
Yang Chunxi's tears tended to fall again, but she just held them back.
Su Yueling said: "Grandma, Chunxi's surname is now Yang, not Jian."
The Queen Mother said: "Yang Chunxi, this name is indeed better than Jian Chunxi."
With the Queen Mother's words, Yang Chunxi's decision to sever ties with the Jian family can be said to be clear. In the future, no one will deliberately use this matter in front of her to accuse her of being unfilial.
The Queen Mother took off a bracelet in her hand and handed it to Yang Chunxi, "Good boy, this bracelet is for you."
Yang Chunxi knelt down to accept the reward.
Jian Chunyin below can be said to be extremely jealous. From now on, the situation between her and Chun Xi has been completely overturned. Why should she be implicated by her grandmother? Chun Xi has gained the pity of the Queen Mother and other nobles because of this.
?
The wrong things my grandmother had done should not have been implicated in the first place. She was innocent.
But no matter how unwilling she was, she couldn't change the fact. She could only huddle in her seat, feeling what it meant to feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.
After watching such a great show, no matter how exciting the subsequent show was, it was already boring to the Queen Mother.
She was not even interested in the birthday gifts given by others. Anyway, they were not as good as the ones given to her by Yueling.
When the birthday banquet was over, she asked Yueling to come over and said to Yueling mysteriously: "Look at those birthday gifts. If you like them, if you like them, just move them home."
If it were someone else, they might have to shirk it a bit.
But Su Yueling just nodded and said enthusiastically: "Okay, it's better for me to choose it myself, lest grandma pick something I don't like and I have to return it."
She also started picking.
The Queen Mother pretended to hit her, but then she couldn't help but laugh.
Su Yueling took a look. Although this birthday gift was not as eye-catching as the emperor's fortieth birthday, the quality was better than the tributes every year. She really saw many rare treasures in it, including some famous paintings and calligraphy.
She also took him away without politeness.
I had to pick and choose things, and there were almost two boxes.
People who didn't know it thought it was her birthday today.
The Queen Mother specifically asked Su Yueling how she could stimulate Mrs. Xiao to such an extent.
Su Yueling concealed the effect of her truth-telling skill and said everything else she could say.
The Queen Mother showed an expression of sudden realization, "No wonder you had to tell the other ladies in advance to cooperate with you. It turned out to be to convince Mrs. Xiao that the palace maid was possessed by Yang Qing, so as to scare herself."
Su Yueling's ability to pretend to be ghosts was so strong. In addition, Mrs. Xiao had been mentally exhausted due to the ghost incident before, and now she even bumped into ghosts when she ran to the palace. No wonder she was stimulated to tell the truth in public.
In fact, it was Su Yueling's skill that really worked. What she did was just to cover up the effect of the skill.
She is indeed the smartest person!
Su Yueling also told her about Yang Chunxi and Su Tianbao, and the Queen Mother also said: "When they are engaged, the Ai family will make more arrangements for Chunxi."
After talking to the Queen Mother for a while, it got dark. Su Yueling simply rested in the palace for one night and went back tomorrow. She thought about it and felt that the Jian family might want to ask Yang Chunxi to intercede if they jumped over the wall, so she simply asked Yang Chunxi to stay in her house.
She wanted to stay there for a few days. The Jian family didn't have the guts to make trouble in front of her.
On the other side, as the married women returned, the news about Xiao quickly spread among the aristocratic circles in the capital.
Everyone is waiting to see Xiao's retribution. If this matter is left lightly, no one will be able to feel at ease in the future.
This is undoubtedly a disaster for the Jian family.
Although Xiao's punishment has not yet come down, Jian Lihang's official position and title have been removed first.
In just a few days, Jian Lihang suddenly became completely out of shape.
Nowadays, the rumors about the Jian family in the capital cannot stop. Everyone says that the Jian family is a den that specializes in cannibalism. Some even say that Jian Lihang has known about this for a long time, but he has been covering it up for his mother all these years.
.
Jian Lihang only felt extremely wronged. He only found out during this period of time that she was his biological mother. He couldn't just kill off his parents, could he?
In the past few days, he had been asking for help from his relatives and friends, but the invitations he handed out were like a stone ox sinking into the sea, which made Jian Lihang feel the harshness of the world.
Jian Chunyin stayed at home and cried these past few days. After learning about her father's difficulties, she couldn't hold it back and ran to Jian Lihang and said, "Dad, why should we seek far away from the near? The root of this matter lies with the second sister. As long as the second sister is willing
Let her go and plead for her in front of the princess and the Queen Mother. I think her grandmother will come back soon. She is already old, and her body and bones cannot withstand the torture of prison. Her mother has been gone for so long, is it possible that she
Do you have to involve your elders for someone who died young?"
In the past, Jian Chunyin was very proud of her status as the eldest daughter of the uncle's house, and felt that she was more noble than Chun Xi. Now she has become a commoner's daughter, and Chun Xi has been rewarded by the Queen Mother. I heard that there are many high-ranking families in the capital.
They all wanted to hire her as a starter, so how could Jian Chunyin be willing to do so.
If this matter got too big, they might even put her on the fire.
Jian Lihang thought it made some sense, so he sent people to Zhuangzi to find his second daughter.
I went out today and came back relatively late. The other two updates will be updated later. Please get up and read them tomorrow morning. Don't stay up late.
