When Liu Yinfeng heard this, he frowned, and a sneer appeared on his face, "He claims to be a smart man, but could he still not see the current situation clearly? He thought Liu Mansion was the Liu Mansion fifteen years ago.
?If he really makes the Seventh Prince never have to step into the Liu Mansion, then in less than a year, the Liu Mansion will disappear in this beautiful city." After the words fell, Liu Yinfeng sighed again.
He said, "It would be nice if Yin Yin was still here."
"Then Young Master..." The servant didn't understand what his Young Master meant by being so angry. He hesitated for a moment before asking again, "Shall we go back to Liu Mansion?"
"What are you going back for?" Liu Yinfeng patted his clothes and frowned, "Huansheng is dead. Those two people are like firecrackers all day long. A little spark can crackle high. Why should I go looking for this?
Bad luck." After saying that, he walked to the door, opened the bead curtain and walked out.
After Yun Shang came out of the Dragon and Phoenix Tower, she ordered the carriage to go to the palace gate. She was confused and wanted to ask Xia Huanyu if this was really the case? Why did he never inform her about such a thing?
A sound?
"Princess, the palace gate has arrived." The carriage driver's voice came from outside. Yun Shang responded softly, still sitting in the car in silence, and after a while, she slowly spoke again, "Let's go back to the house."
The coachman was a little stunned and stunned for a moment before he responded and turned the carriage back to Prince Rui's Mansion.
As soon as she entered the door, Yun Shang was stopped by the maid, "Princess, there is a visitor coming. Sister Qianyin led her to the flower hall."
Yun Shang frowned, "Who is it?"
The maid thought for a while and then said, "I heard that Sister Qianyin called her Mrs. Gu, but I don't know exactly who this slave is."
Mrs. Gu, Yun Shang frowned. There were quite a few people with the surname Gu in Jincheng, but since Qianyin knew him, she should have seen him before, but why didn't she have any impression of such a person?
Although she was a little upset, Yun Shang also took a detour to the flower hall. In the flower hall, a beautiful woman frowned, her eyebrows seemed to be filled with sadness, and she was looking at the teacup on the table in a daze.
Mrs. Gu. Yun Shang looked at the woman and then remembered that it was her, the concubine's wife of Tanhua Lang Gu Chaoge. However, Yun Shang carefully recalled the situation that day, and she did not have much contact with her.
Intersect, why did she come to the palace?
Yun Shang sorted out her mind for a while, then put on a clear and shallow smile, stepped into the flower hall, and said with a full smile, "It turns out that Mrs. Gu is here. I didn't know that Mrs. Gu would be here today.
I went out just now, but I kept Mrs. Gu waiting for a long time."
When the woman heard Yun Shang's voice, she quickly stood up and stood a little awkwardly. After hearing Yun Shang finish speaking, she quickly shook her head, raised her head to look at Yun Shang cautiously, and said in a voice like a mosquito, "
No, no, no, I didn’t wait for a long time, I was determined to wait for the princess to come back.”
Yun Shang looked at the woman with a smile and saw her hand unconsciously stirring the brocade handkerchief in her hand. She bit her lip and was silent for a long time before saying something incomprehensible, "Princess, please call me Nuxi."
Nuxi, Yun Shang smiled, it was a somewhat despicable name.
Seeing that Yun Shang didn't answer, Nu Xi became even more nervous. After a while, he said, "I have taken the liberty to come to see the princess today because of the matter of Mrs. Liu."
"Oh?" Yun Shang sat on the main seat, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, "For Mrs. Liu? Mrs. Liu is the young lady of the Liu Mansion, and she doesn't seem to have much to do with Prince Rui's Mansion, right?"
When Nu Xi heard this, her smile became even more forced, and her face turned a little pale. After a long time, she said, "This matter has something to do with the princess, uh, to be more precise, it has something to do with the Duke's Mansion.
I heard, concubine, that Mrs. Liu’s death was investigated by the Ministry of Punishment? It was said that it was done by a servant in the Duke’s palace, and the evidence is sufficient.”
"That's true." Yun Shang knocked on the armrest of the chair, a little surprised by the blunt words of the woman in front of her.
"Concubine..." Nu Xi bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind, clenched her fists and said, "Concubine, when I went to deliver tea to my husband the day before yesterday, I heard someone telling me to tell him to tell the Duke's office.
The servant, give him a poison to kill himself. He also said that as long as the servant kills himself, everyone will think that a certain master of the Duke's Mansion is killing people and silencing him. Then, let the husband lead people to search for the servant.
room, saying something would be found in that room."
Yun Shang paused slightly, raised her hand to hold the jade butterfly hairpin on her head, her smile did not change, "Does Mrs. Gu know what consequences your words will bring to your husband?"
Nu Xi's lips turned a little whiter, and she said with a wry smile, "Of course I know this. I don't know people well. I misjudged him before. When I first met him, I knew he had a wife at home.
We didn't intend to get involved, but after we got drunk that day, something happened that shouldn't have happened. He said that I couldn't help myself, and I forced myself to have an affair with him while he was drunk, so I believed him.
At that time, I thought that he was my beloved in this life, and even though it was not my original intention, I decided to let him welcome me into my house. I really loved him and didn’t care about his status, as long as I could be with him.
I was willing to be together. But I didn't want to. Only after he brought Mrs. Gu and the eldest young lady into the house did I see his true face clearly."
Yun Shang took the tea cup handed over by Qian Yin and gently turned it in the palm of her hand.
"Everyone in the world said that I was vicious and wanted the position of the principal wife, so I tried every possible means to kill the lady and the young master. I did not get the position of the principal wife, and they only said that I deserved it.
There is no life for committing evil. However, no one knows what kind of hidden secrets there are." A bit of moisture slowly spread in Nuxi's eyes, and her face became paler, "I didn't know why Madam and the others died before.
, I always thought it was just an accident, but one time I heard something I shouldn’t have heard, and then I learned the truth.”
"Oh?" Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, "The truth?"
Nuxi nodded fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, the truth. That night, he thought I was asleep, so he quietly left the house. After a while, there were voices coming from the yard. I felt a little strange, so I got up.
Listening at the door, he heard the man in black praising him for doing a good job, saying that there is no need for a real man to have a wife, and that it would be a good deal to exchange the lives of his wife and children for glory and wealth. He also said that this matter would stop in a few days.
When the time comes, I will betroth your lord's daughter to him as his wife."
Nuxi seemed to have remembered what happened that night, her body was trembling slightly and her voice was unsteady, "I was frightened at that time, and then I heard my husband say that there is no need to worry. Everyone thought that Nuxi killed someone out of love and hatred.
, I will never suspect him."
Nu Xi bit her lip with a bitter smile, "The person I have loved for so long, that seemingly gentle and polite scholar, actually killed his wife and children for the sake of glory and wealth. I really can't accept it.
. Later, I paid close attention, forcing myself to stay awake every night, and heard a lot of things, and then I realized that my husband had done so many bad things."
"I have been criticized by everyone. Until that day, the princess personally helped me up. Even after hearing what they said about me, she never looked at me with contempt like others. I knew that,
The princess can save me." Nu Xi said, then raised her eyes and glanced at Yun Shang, stood up suddenly, and fell to her knees, her face already covered with tears.
"I came to the princess today to tell her the true face of Gu Chaoge and how they wanted to deal with the Duke's Mansion. I just hope that the princess can save me. I really don't want to live with such a person anymore, but he
You will definitely not let me go. Please save me, Princess." Nu Xi kowtowed to Yun Shang three times, her voice choked with sobs, "Back then, I had no shame and had a drunken affair with him. Those rumors and slanders were all about me.
I should suffer what I deserve, and I have no complaints. It’s just that although I am not a noble person, I don’t want to be associated with such a hypocrite who is so incomprehensible and murderous.”
Yun Shang raised her eyes and exchanged glances with Qian Yin, thinking in her mind that if things were really as she said, the night she and Gu Chaoge got drunk was also Gu Chaoge's plan. I'm afraid she fell in love with Nu Xi.
However, he saw that although Nuxi was in love with him, he was unwilling to go further with him due to moral constraints, so he had evil intentions, got Nuxi drunk, and after having a romantic night with her, he used some ridiculous words.
Lie Nuxi thought she had done something wrong, so she resigned herself to being a side room.
Yun Shang pondered for a long time, then raised his eyes and said, "I know what you said. Don't be too sad. Just let this be a test between fate and you. I will answer your request."
But now is not the time. I suddenly heard such a shocking thing, and I don’t have any ideas in my mind. But don’t worry, since I promised you, I won’t break my promise. You go back first.
Treat him as usual, but don't get up in the middle of the night and eavesdrop. If he finds out, you will be in danger. I'm really thinking about how to deal with this matter. If there is any news, I will let someone inform you."
Hearing this, Nu Xi quickly kowtowed to Yun Shang several times and said repeatedly, "Thank you very much, Princess, thank you very much, Princess."
Yun Shang stood up, helped her stand up, and said softly, "I like your temperament. Don't be too anxious. A good woman like you will definitely have a good ending."
Nuxi was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly and said, "I don't beg for a good ending anymore. I just hope to be able to escape from this sea of suffering. This will get rid of the princess. Nuxi thanks the princess."
After seeing off Mrs. Gu, Yun Shang returned to the room, raised her eyes and looked at Qianyin, "Look at Mrs. Gu's words, how true or false are they?" (To be continued)
