While the mother-in-law went to report to the official, the news was also received in the front yard. Hou Xucheng, the Minister of Civil Affairs, could not care less and hurriedly spoke softly to Duke Ding.
"My lord, there was some misunderstanding in the back house today. My wife was stupidly used as a gunman. Now Princess Qingyu is fine, but my wife must report to the official. If she really reports to the official, then...
…who has a bad reputation!”
"Do you think if this is not the case, then the matter will be forgotten?"
After hearing the report from the people around his wife, Duke Dingguo felt a chill in his heart after hearing Hou Xucheng's explanation.
In his early years, he worked with Duke Wei to help His Majesty guard the country and made great contributions.
As he got older, the physical pain caused by old injuries increased, and Duke Dingguo entered the stage of nursing.
It's a pity that I was away at war in my early years and it was too late to have children. Now the younger generation has just entered the court a few years ago, and their position is no more than sixth rank, and they are still unable to get into the eyes of these aristocratic families.
So these people can openly attack the Duke's government!
I really feel like I’m made of paper and clay!
Then Duke Dingguo laughed and said: "Normally, we men will not interfere in the affairs of the back house. But today, someone actually tried to make trouble in my house, trying to catch up with Duke Dingguo's house, Lord Hou's wife, Princess Qingyu and his wife.
I can’t let this go.”
Duke Dingguo glanced at Hou Xucheng and advised in a kind tone: "Let me tell you, your wife has been plotted by others, and you still want to cover it up? It's time to peel off this layer of skin and let the person bully me behind the scenes."
Find out all the bad guys in the Duke's Mansion and your Minister's Mansion!"
Hou Xucheng almost cried: "!!!"
There is no need to avenge me like this!
Two days ago, Hou Xucheng heard his wife ask about Qi Yunxiao's situation.
When he learned that Qi Yunxiao's wife had given birth to triplets, and that she was the missing daughter of Duke Wei, he immediately became interested.
Mrs. Liang said that her maternal niece suffered a massive hemorrhage during a miscarriage and she managed to save her life, but was ruthlessly abandoned by her husband's family.
If Princess Qingyu can be plotted against her and her innocence is lost, even if Qi Yunxiao doesn't divorce his wife, they will definitely separate.
When the time comes, no matter whether you marry an equal wife or divorce your wife and marry another, the niece who is unable to bear children will have a big advantage.
At that time, Hou Xucheng was still worried: Qi Yunxiao is now a popular figure in front of His Majesty. If he doesn't handle it well and gets into trouble in front of His Majesty, I'm afraid that His Majesty will be humiliated.
Liang said: Your Majesty cares about Qi Yunxiao, not Princess Qingyu.
What's more, Duke Wei has been missing for many years, and his wife has been absent from the capital all year round. Even if something happens to Princess Qingyu, no one will support her and say good things.
So Hou Xucheng acquiesced.
But who would have thought that Princess Qingyu was not included in the calculation, but instead angered Duke Dingguo and shot himself in the foot.
The past flashed through his mind, and Hou Xucheng's spine went cold. He wanted to say something more, but Duke Dingguo stood up: "I'm old and a little dizzy. I'm going to rest first. Zhongkui, please say hello here.
Dear adults."
Prince Dingguo agreed and asked everyone to sit down for a moment in a gentle voice.
When there was no major problem, it was unprecedented for the government to be alerted to investigate such a private matter in the back house. Many ladies felt that they had lost face and complained one after another.
Mrs. Dingguo had a dark face: "My old lady is the one who should be saddened the most by what happened today! With all my good intentions, who would have thought that someone would do such an outrageous thing regardless of the innocent reputation of all the ladies." p>
"If we don't find out today, everyone here will be suspected. In the future, the younger generations of your family will also get married. Who is willing to bear such a reputation?"
All the ladies and ladies looked at each other: No one wants this kind of reputation.
"I can't say it. My old lady will put aside her old face today and ask the government to come and clear all the ladies and ladies, and also find the person behind this."
"Otherwise, who would dare to come to our Dingguo Palace as a guest in the future?"
As soon as he said this, those who had no ghosts in their hearts naturally stopped talking and waited for people to come.
Shen Qingyu glanced back at this moment, and the female dragon guard disguised as a maid handed over a tea cup.
Shen Qingyu's voice was calm: "This is the cup of tea that I drank. After drinking it, my maid, who is skilled in medical skills, smelled that the tea had been drugged, so she went to find my husband."
Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and then they realized that Shen Qingyu had actually hidden the tea cup!
"I think the imperial doctor will know what the medicine in this is. When the time comes, I will check where this medicine is sold in the capital. If anyone has bought it, they will know everything."
As soon as he said this, the tea cup in the hand of Madam Liang fell to the ground with a clang.
Everyone's eyes turned to Liang.
Mrs. Liang's face was already pale and she couldn't hide it no matter what.
She turned her head and glared at her personal nanny.
The personal maid felt a chill in her heart, thinking about Liang's unscrupulous tactics, and then thinking about the fact that her sons' marriage contracts were still in Liang's hands...
The personal maid gritted her teeth, stared at Shen Qingyu and said: "I didn't expect you to see all this! I just can't stand your way of asking for money! You sold my wife so much soap, but you dare to sell it for two
Two pieces of silver and one piece! Why don’t you go and grab it?”
"Madam told me not to talk too much, but I don't! I'm going to watch you make a fool of yourself!" After saying this, the personal nun slammed into the pillar next to her and died.
"You... you're such a naughty slave..." Mrs. Liang fainted before she could finish her words.
Everyone looked at each other: Liang was the only one who jumped so hard about what happened today. Sure enough, she really did it.
No one believed the lies her personal nanny made up in a hurry.
But everyone is dead, there is no evidence of death, and Mrs. Liang pretended to be unconscious, so naturally it will be difficult to investigate this matter.
Shen Qingyu stood up with a slight smile: "In that case, let's leave first."
Mrs. Ding Guogong felt very guilty and gave Shen Qingyu a lot of jewelry, silk and bird's nest Ganoderma lucidum, saying that it was to calm Shen Qingyu's shock, and warmly invited Shen Qingyu to come and play alone next time.
Shen Qingyu also knew that Mrs. Dingguo was not to blame for this, so she waved her hand and left.
At first glance, this matter is over.
But in fact, it’s not over yet.
The young man who was thrown out by Qi Yunxiao asked the dragon guards to quietly take him to the underground torture chamber of a secret house.
After a severe beating, the swinger said everything he should and should not say.
The Rake was originally Gao Yuanfeng, the legitimate son of Gao Rongxing, the Minister of Rites.
However, his first wife died early and gave birth to several more children after the second marriage. The eldest son who was deliberately abandoned by the second wife became a libertine.
On weekdays, he bullies good women and behaves tyrannically in the capital, and Gao Shangshu always doesn't want to see him.
But this does not mean that Gao Shangshu can watch him disappear or even die.
So Gao Shangshu went to the government to file a complaint, saying that his son was missing and he suspected that he had been assassinated.
After an investigation by the government, it was discovered that the last person Gao Yuanfeng met was a younger brother of the Liang family, the wife of the Minister of Civil Affairs.
As soon as the soft-footed shrimp was taken to the government, he immediately confessed the death of Mrs. Liang's personal nanny.
We are all foxes of thousands of years, who can’t understand the twists and turns in between?
Gao Rongxing, the Minister of Rites, was so angry that he knelt down in the Jinluan Palace with tears streaming down his face. He asked Hou Xucheng, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, to give an explanation: "Although my son is useless, he is the only bloodline left by my legitimate wife. Please return the child to Mr. Hou."
Give it to me, you want to see someone alive! You want to see a corpse if you die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Rongxing banged his head on the golden brick floor of the Jinluan Palace, breaking his forehead!
