When Mrs. Shangshu mentioned last night, Aunt Liu couldn't help but tremble. Because it reminded her of the horror last night. The child's voice kept lingering in her ears, like the voice of chasing a ghost.
"I don't know what the madam is talking about?" Aunt Liu said evasively.
"Now that the witnesses are here, do you still want to deny it?" Mrs. Shangshu said.
"Madam, I have been wronged!" Aunt Liu planned to deny it to the end.
"Pluto Princess, please uphold justice." Xu Ziming said respectfully.
"Then let me, the princess, talk about this matter." Murong Xi smiled slightly and said.
Aunt Liu just noticed Jin'er, not Murong Xi behind Jin'er. If Aunt Liu had the opportunity to attend the palace banquet, she would definitely be attracted by Murong Xi's appearance at the first sight. But last night she was frightened by Jin'er.
So when he saw Jin'er, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground and didn't even notice Murong Xi behind Jin'er.
Therefore, when Murong Xi spoke, Aunt Liu knew that the woman behind Jin'er was Princess Pluto.
Murong Xi's voice was very pleasant, and he slowly told what happened yesterday afternoon.
It turned out that when Xu Ziming and Su'er came back yesterday, they did bring Jin'er into the main courtyard. When it was time for Jin'er to take a nap, Ji Limo took her back to Hades Mansion. So, when Nanny Lan went to the pool in the afternoon,
There is just an extra wooden stick in my hand.
And everything Kui'er's cousin experienced yesterday was actually an illusion. It wasn't until he left the back garden that he returned to normal.
The person they arranged kept an eye on Aunt Liu and Kui'er's cousin. Sure enough, Kui'er's cousin fell to the ground with poison shortly after leaving the Shangshu Mansion.
After detoxifying him, he told the truth about the matter. So, they used their plan and brought Kui'er's cousin to Aunt Liu's yard.
So last night, it was Princess Pluto who performed a play with Kui'er's cousin.
"Because you were under an illusion, you mistook this princess for Jin'er. You have a ghost in your heart, that's why you are so scared. Otherwise, why would you be so frightened that you fell to the ground when you saw Jin'er?" Murong Xi smiled.
He said.
Aunt Liu didn't expect that all of this was a trap just for her to jump in. But she couldn't say anything because she did plan to kill Jin'er.
It's just that it's not that easy to get her to admit that she lost.
"Madam, you are taking advantage of my master's serious illness to plot against me. I am not convinced. I know you look noble and generous on the outside, but your mind is as small as the eye of a needle. You are just jealous of me and jealous of my master's love for me. Otherwise, you are jealous of me."
You won't plot against me alone." Aunt Liu said it in one breath.
Mrs. Shangshu sneered, feeling that Aunt Liu had overestimated herself.
She said calmly: "Even if the master is seriously ill, you should not have such a plan. We have given you many opportunities, but you have gone crazy. How can you think about the problems here? Who is our master?
You don't know, right? He will never be partial because Ziming is his legitimate son. As long as his son is capable, he will teach him carefully. And besides eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, what else will your son do?
How old is he, and he has no knowledge or skills? You thought that the master was seriously ill, so you started planning how to get the family property. Liu Xiangyun, am I wrong?"
Aunt Liu was speechless, because Madam was right, even if she planned all this, it was her own plan. After she gave birth to her son, she was so happy that she couldn't sleep. Who knew that her excessive doting would make him completely
Became a waste.
Aunt Liu fell to her knees on the ground, unable to argue.
When Feng Mingye and Murong Xi saw that the matter had come to an end, Murong Xi said to Jin'er: "Jin'er, go to your grandmother."
Murong Xi could tell that Mrs. Shangshu was very worried about Jin'er. She probably didn't sleep all night because of what happened last night.
Jin'er ran to Madam Shangshu on her short legs. Madam Shangshu looked at Jin'er carefully and felt relieved when she saw that he looked good.
After Murong Xi glanced at Aunt Liu, she took Feng Mingye and left Shangshu's Mansion. Just when Madam Shangshu wanted to persuade her to stay, Xu Ziming said softly: "Mother, there is no need to trouble His Highness Pluto about the next matter."
Mrs. Shangshu nodded, knowing that today was not the time to retain His Highness and Princess Pluto.
She then said to Aunt Liu: "Since you have nothing to say, do you have any objection to sending you to the ancestral hall to enforce family law?"
Aunt Liu snorted coldly, obviously not convinced, and said: "You just want my life, why do you need to go to the ancestral hall?"
"I really planned to kill you, but Ying'er begged for your favor, and now you have to go to the ancestral hall to be punished. When you do these things, don't you think about your children?"
Mrs. Shangshu said very disappointedly.
When Aunt Liu heard that it was Ying'er who was interceding for her, she suddenly realized and said, "It must be her. She told you my plan, right? This stinky girl, after raising her so big, actually eats her inside and outside?"
Mrs. Shangshu saw that Aunt Liu was getting more and more unpleasant as she spoke, so she shouted: "Someone, please shut up her mouth and send her to the ancestral hall."
After listening to the madam's instructions, the servants blocked Aunt Liu's mouth and dragged her to the ancestral hall.
Mrs. Shangshu closed her eyes slightly, and the matter finally came to an end. She didn't know whether what Aunt Liu just said would reach the ears of the third girl. The third girl thought of her wholeheartedly, but she said that the third girl was cheating on her.
"Mother, you don't need to care about Aunt Liu's words." Xu Ziming advised.
"I don't care about what she said. What I'm worried about is the third girl. If she knew that her aunt said this to her, she would definitely feel sad." Mrs. Shangshu said.
"Third sister will figure it out." Xu Ziming said.
"Let's go, let's go to the ancestral hall first." Mrs. Shangshu said.
So Mrs. Shangshu asked Nanny Lan to watch Jin'er, and then went to the ancestral hall with Xu Ziming and the second young master. Jin'er was still young and could not be allowed to see the execution of family law.
When they arrived at the door of the ancestral hall, they heard Aunt Liu's scolding voice. Mrs. Shangshu frowned, because she had blocked Aunt Liu's mouth, how could she still speak.
When she went in, she saw that Aunt Liu had found the strength and was swinging a bamboo pole around in her hand. The people inside didn't dare to get close.
"I am Master's favorite Aunt Liu. How dare you use family law against me? Aren't you afraid that Master will punish you when he wakes up?" Aunt Liu said like a shrew.
Mrs. Shangshu almost lost her temper because she didn't expect that Aunt Liu would dare to cause trouble in the ancestral hall.
"Liu Xiangyun, what are you doing? How dare you act so recklessly in the ancestral hall? Someone came and snatched the bamboo pole from her hand and pushed her to the ground." Mrs. Shangshu was really angry.
Seeing the lady coming, the servant dared to push Aunt Liu to the ground.
"According to family rules, I'll give her eighty blows." Mrs. Shangshu said coldly.
After receiving the order, the servant picked up the board and hit Aunt Liu on her body. Aunt Liu made a sound like a killing pig, and her words were also very unpleasant.
At this moment, the third child
The elder sister heard the news for some reason and ran to the ancestral hall. In fact, there are differences between the concubine and the concubine in the Shangshu Mansion. Generally, concubines are not allowed to go to the ancestral hall. But the third lady didn't care about this, and broke in with all her strength.
"Mom, my aunt is at fault. My daughter can't just watch her being punished. It's better for my daughter to be punished for her. Please agree, mother." After the third lady broke in, she knelt down and said.
Before Mrs. Shangshu could speak, Aunt Liu said: "Yes, I gave birth to her and raised her for so many years, so she should take the blame for me. Didn't you hear what she said? Let me down quickly and tie her up.
"
Mrs. Shangshu originally planned to reduce Aunt Liu's punishment, but she didn't expect Aunt Liu to suddenly say such words.
Mrs. Shangshu was so angry that she couldn't speak, but Xu Ziming said slowly: "In that case, someone, please invite the third brother over and let him take the punishment instead of Aunt Liu."
"No, he is your brother, why are you so cruel?" Aunt Liu blurted out.
"Oh? That third sister is your biological daughter, why are you so cruel?" Xu Ziming said with a sneer.
"How can it be the same?" Aunt Liu said.
The third young lady originally knelt on the ground to plead for Aunt Liu, but she did not expect that Aunt Liu would still be so partial at this time.
"Why is it different? Aren't they all your children?" Xu Ziming continued.
"Jing'er is a man, so of course it's different. Besides, if it wasn't for this dead girl, how could I have ended up like this?" Aunt Liu said with a cold snort.
The third lady couldn't believe her ears. She was heartbroken by Aunt Liu's words.
Xu Ziming glanced at the third lady who was kneeling on the ground and asked: "Third sister, are you still punished for Aunt Liu?"
The third young lady nodded and said to Xu Ziming: "Here, if I am punished for her today, consider it as repaying her many years of upbringing."
After the third lady finished speaking, she kowtowed to Aunt Liu, then stood up and walked to the place where she was punished.
Because the servant stopped the board, Aunt Liu fell off the bench. The third lady ignored it and lay down on the bench, waiting to be punished again.
Xu Ziming nodded to the servant, who then started to slap the third lady on the body. These paddles were naturally different from those used to hit Aunt Liu, because the third lady was the master, so he would hit her lightly. So,
The third lady was beaten sixty times for Aunt Liu.
Halfway through the beating, Xu Yu'er ran over and said to Xu Ziming: "Brother, how can you torture your sister?"
"She asked for it herself, and she knew it well," Xu Ziming said.
"But how can she, a weak woman, withstand this sixty-strong battle?" Xu Yu'er said anxiously.
"Don't worry Yu'er, they don't dare to kill the third sister." Xu Ziming said.
It was useless for Xu Yu'er to be anxious. She could not stop the third lady from being beaten. She did not stop until the sixty big boards were beaten.
The third lady didn't make a sound when she was beaten. After the beating, she fainted and rolled down the bench.
The second young master picked up the third young lady and sent the third young lady back to the main courtyard. Xu Yu'er was worried and followed behind.
Mrs. Shangshu glanced at Aunt Liu and said nothing more. Because she was worried about Miss Third, she and Xu Ziming returned to the main courtyard.
Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that they were all gone. She sneered, she had gotten into such a big trouble, so she was still in trouble.
When she got up and walked to the backyard, she recalled the stubborn look of the third lady just now, and felt a little panicked in her heart.
