Wu decisively sent Zhang Biyao to the East Palace, which caught Huo Xi off guard.
I have to say with emotion, Wu's methods are good.
Since ancient times, when parents are their children, they have far-reaching plans. For Zhang Jie, Wu often resorted to tricks, but for Nian'er, she can do the same.
In order to create public opinion, Huo Xi contacted many storytellers.
She provided them with many vivid stories. Among them, the stories about the gate of the house were collected by her from many places, or Mu Yan got them from the Jin Yiwei with whom he was friends.
Even though it has changed its appearance, the core is still too real.
The story comes from the common people. It is so real and vivid that it is heart-wrenching. Compared with the stories about ghosts, immortals, demons, bloody rivers and lakes, beacon smoke battlefields, and murderous house fights, because it is close to the lives of the common people, it has attracted batches of people in the capital.
.
The wine shops and tea shops were packed with seats, and they became very popular from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
It's so real, just like the storyteller's personal experience. Of course the gossipy people in the capital must ask the storyteller to get to the bottom of it.
In less than a day, word spread throughout the capital that the British Lady Li, who had just been posthumously named, turned out that her two children were still alive!
Is this bullying the fact that the Li family has no one in the capital?
Many people even came to the gate of the British Government House to ask what happened.
Those who attended Princess Fuqing's banquet that day finally understood why Zhang Biyao met the prince by chance that day. The British government was in a rage, so why didn't they send their daughter to the East Palace to be favored?
It turns out there is really a story here.
It has only been ten years, but many people in the capital still remember Li.
Nowadays, there is a lot of public opinion, and we don’t know whether it is true or not.
"I still remember Mrs. Li from England. She was a very gentle person. She was good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and had the best temperament. Ever since she was a girl, the threshold of her family had been crossed by others. Many people wanted to
Hire her in."
"Yes, I remember her too. I didn't expect that she, a daughter of a civil servant, would marry into the Zhang family."
Since ancient times, civil servants and military officers have always had a clear distinction, and sometimes they were even opposites.
"It's a pity that such a good person died so early. It took Wu's advantage."
But no, the man first became an uncle, and soon he was granted the title of Marquis. Within a few years, he was granted the title of Duke of England. He thought she had good taste and would pick one out of a thousand, but he didn't expect that he didn't enjoy any blessing at all.
"Are her two children really still alive?"
"It's fake. She only gave birth to one daughter in those years. Because she only gave birth to one daughter in many years, I heard that her situation was not very good in those years. I saw her daughter when she was a child. She was smart and lively. I didn't expect that she would go with Li.
went."
"How can there be waves without wind? Maybe it's true! Back then, Mrs. Li was pregnant again and many people saw it. We were all surrounded by people sent by the old emperor back then, and I was still worried about her."
So the fetus in Li's belly was actually born?
So how do you say that she was stillborn, one dead and two dead?
The noble ladies in the capital usually had little entertainment, and the flames of gossip were burning brightly. No matter how much Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu tried to suppress it, it spread too widely and could not be suppressed at all.
There are many curious people blocking the door of the mansion every day, wanting to know the truth.
From the master to the servants of the British Duke's mansion, no one dared to leave the house.
The Wu family was furious in the house.
Her daughter has not yet been sent to the East Palace. She thought that with the influence of the East Palace, the Tai Madam and the Duke would have some scruples in their actions, and her mother and son would be safe.
Unexpectedly, there is peace in the house, but there is a demonic wind blowing outside the house.
"Let Youcai find them quickly! I don't want to hear any more news about them!"
How dare these two scoundrels ruin her good deeds!
She didn't feel comfortable letting them live for two more days!
The commotion was too great, and no matter how hard the wife tried, she couldn't suppress it. Everyone in the mansion heard about it.
Originally, only the two brothers Zhang Shi and Zhang Fu knew the inside story, but now there is a lot of discussion outside. The Hou family, Xiao Wu family, the second and third bedrooms, and even the juniors of the eldest family are all trying to find out the information.
The two concubines in the big house, Xiao Wang and Liu, were holding melon seeds and snacks every day, leaning against the door of the courtyard and listening to the gossip. The more they listened, the more comfortable they became.
Seeing Wu's defeat, they felt extremely happy in their hearts.
"Miss, the news has spread all over the capital now, and I'm afraid the Duke's office won't be able to suppress it even if it wants to!" Ningxiu rubbed her hands in joy at the side.
Her young lady died so tragically, the young lady and the young master couldn’t live without status. She wouldn’t agree!
Ningxiu wished she could go to the street and scream, it was true! Her girl and young master were both dead, it was the Zhang family's fault!
The nanny also looked at Huo Xi excitedly.
Huo Xi did not speak.
Mother Ma was silent for a while and then said: "This is a plan to kill the enemy by one thousand and kill eight hundred by yourself."
Housewives are accustomed to using public opinion to achieve their goals.
However, public opinions may be true or false, and if they are not handled well, they will be suppressed. And smart people will find clues. Once they find that the public opinion comes from a girl, it will be detrimental to her.
Mother Ma looked at her with some disapproval.
From her point of view, she still had to lie dormant, lure Wu into action, and then wait for the best opportunity to kill her in one fell swoop.
When the time comes when the world knows the truth, they will naturally stand on the girl's side. At that time, when everything is ready, the young master will naturally clear all obstacles and suppress all objections when he inherits the Duke's palace.
They have the patience to wait, but there is a tiger next to their bed, and Wu may not be able to bear it.
She will definitely take action.
The girl and the young master just need to wait.
But now public opinion has put pressure on Mrs. Tai and Zhang Fu. If it arouses their resentment and feels that the girl and the young master are too scheming, and their attitude towards the girl and the young master changes, it will be disadvantageous.
Originally, the Duke of Guo felt guilty towards his two children.
Huo Xi was silent. She felt that she was also a little confused by Wu's operation.
"Mommy..."
"Girl, this is a society where people cannibalize people. We should not look at the world with ordinary people's eyes. People with power want to pinch ordinary people, just like pinching an ant to death. If the Prince's Palace helps to suppress it, the girl's operation
, even the water will not splash."
If it doesn't work, then there is no point in doing these things.
Just like the girl's mother back then, wouldn't it be true that the only people who knew the inside story were the girls and the wet nurses in the hall, so no one would know and become suspicious?
But do they dare to confront the nobles? They don't even dare to make a sound. As time goes by, the falsehood becomes true.
Ningxiu and the wet nurse were trembling, "Then what are we going to do?"
"Let's see how the world situation guides us, how the Duke's government operates, and we are waiting for Wu to take action. Girls just need to wait. Sometimes waiting does not mean doing nothing, but waiting for the best opportunity."
Huo Xi nodded. She still had too little experience in fighting in the back house.
Over the years, although there have been days when I didn't know what to eat after this meal, generally speaking, my life has been peaceful and peaceful, without any changes.
"Girl, we still have to get the support of the Duke of Guo. The girl still has to take advantage of the guilt of the Duke of Guo. Don't be cold to him. If he is cold-hearted, he will think that your siblings are of no use to you.
It’s useless. It’s best to stay away.”
Mother Ma taught her earnestly. She understood very well the importance of the man in charge of the house. What's more, there was a concubine in the Duke's palace who was granted the title of concubine.
"Okay." Huo Xi responded. His grandfather also said that Zhang Fu is the key.
