169 Past Life Rumors (Yinzhou Guest Qing Jin Mowan
Mrs. Xue's expression turned cold, and she looked at the mother-in-law beside her, and said in a particularly calm tone: "Remember, early tomorrow morning, I will ask someone to send a message to the Lu Mansion and tell the Lu family that Mrs. Lu was unlucky and died in childbirth."
The mother-in-law became nervous, lowered her head and said "yes".
Hey, you are going to die sooner or later, and it is better to be happy than to be crazy and have no one care about you and be tortured day after day...
Soon, two rough ladies came into the inner room holding Bai Ling.
The sound of a woman struggling could be heard.
Xue's expression remained unchanged as she listened.
Xu sensed something, and the child in her arms burst into tears.
"Don't be afraid, she deserves it... In the future, grandma will raise you well." Ms. Xue said softly: "You will still be as glorious as before..."
Cold wind poured into the inner room through the window lattice, and the woman whose neck was wrapped tightly by Bai Ling gradually became silent. Only a pair of bloodshot eyes were opened vacantly, as if she was staring at something with all her strength.
The infant child was held by the mother-in-law, and she followed Mr. Xue out of the small courtyard.
Soon, the news that Lu, the second young mistress of the Xia family, left behind a son and died in childbirth, spread throughout the capital.
With Xia Han's incident happening first, it is inevitable that people can't help but think more about this second young lady's incident.
But the loss of such a human life cannot stir up much splash.
Even the Lu family didn't say a single word.
…
On this day, Xu Mingyi went to the eldest princess's mansion.
The weather has turned cold and the garden is no longer a pleasant place to go. The two girls stayed in the house playing chess and talking.
"Hasn't anything been found out yet about the man named Lan Zhu?" Xu Mingyi had already asked about this matter a few days ago, but to no avail.
"Nothing."
Princess Yufeng looked at the chessboard and said: "Looking back, it is true that we have overthought it. Mother doesn't want to argue with him about the maidservant. Let's keep playing the piano to make mother happy."
Seeing his friend's nonchalant look, Xu Mingyi sighed inwardly.
But think about it.
It's just that the same maid sent a letter. If you use this to conclude that this person has ulterior motives, it will indeed appear that everything is under control.
If she hadn't known that the eldest princess would suddenly have an accident this month, she probably wouldn't have paid too much attention to such a seemingly inconspicuous thing.
And now the Princess's Mansion has not been able to detect anything strange...
Did she really think too much?
Or is it that what happened to the eldest princess is actually related to the rumor she heard in her previous life?
Although she didn't believe it herself, Jiao Jiao had categorically denied this possibility with her in her previous life, but now she really had no clue, and therefore, she didn't want to let go of any possibility easily.
"Jiaojiao, I want to ask you something that I shouldn't ask you-"
Princess Yufeng couldn't help but raise her head and look at her after hearing this.
It makes Xu Zhaozhao feel like he shouldn't ask about something. How much shouldn't he ask?
This actually aroused her curiosity, and she said, "Ask me and I'll listen."
"Do you know where your shameless biological father is now?" Xu Mingyi asked.
She wanted to scold her like a beast, but it seemed that even Jiao Jiao was scolded as well, so she could only briefly express her position and desire for survival by saying she was shameless.
Princess Yufeng's expression suddenly changed.
"How do I know where he died? He was fine, why did you ask him?"
Could it be that he felt that she couldn't win this game of chess, so he tried to use this matter to mess with her mind?...Did Xu Zhaozhao risk his life just to win?
"I just suddenly thought of it." Faced with the death gaze of his friend, Xu Mingyi said bravely: "I just thought that after so many years, you and the eldest princess should let go of this knot.
.”
What she meant by letting go was not forgiveness, but that she no longer cared much about this person's existence.
"It's just a piece of mouse droppings. It's disgusting, but it can't be called a heart knot at all." Princess Yufeng said angrily: "Mother has already said that since she has divorced him, will he die or not?"
Life has nothing to do with us anymore.”
Xu Mingyi nodded.
"As long as the eldest princess can think openly, such a person is really not worth it."
Jiao Jiao told her the same thing in her previous life.
But at that time, there was a rumor in the capital - it was said that the man returned to the capital and humiliated the eldest princess in public. Then a few days later, the man died. Some people secretly speculated that the eldest princess vented her anger out of revenge.
While moving her hands, these words reached the ears of the eldest princess. She was so angry that she fell ill. This illness soon disappeared.
Others said that the eldest princess still couldn't let go of that man, so she was actually deliberately paralyzing herself, so after hearing the news of his death, her body, which had been suffering from lewdness and pleasure, completely collapsed.
All in all, no matter which theory was used, in the eyes of everyone at that time, the death of the eldest princess was inseparable from the death of her ex-husband.
But Jiao Jiao firmly doesn’t think so.
Jiao Jiao told her very confidently that her mother had never cared about that man's death at all. As for the rumors outside - if Princess Jingrong was someone who cared about other people's opinions and comments, she would not be able to do it all the time.
I have been raising noodles to this day.
Thinking of this, Xu Mingyi frowned unconsciously.
Perhaps, she should ask someone to find out about that man's whereabouts.
Even if he may not be related to the eldest princess's 'illness', she, who knows nothing at the moment, can only use this stupid method to check and rule out everything.
"How is the eldest princess's health lately?" Xu Mingyi asked.
In the final analysis, the physical changes of the eldest princess are the most important thing.
"I drank less wine and became more energetic."
Princess Yufeng didn't want to get angry with her friend, so she suppressed her previous bad mood and said in her usual tone: "I was summoned by His Majesty this morning and went to the palace."
"Why does Your Majesty want to see the eldest princess?" Xu Mingyi asked subconsciously.
Thinking of His Majesty the Emperor, who even praised him for being a beast, Xu Mingyi's guard rose again.
She felt that she was like an owl squatting on a branch with wide eyes watching all directions. The slightest movement made her unable to help but think wildly.
If this continues, maybe the eldest princess will not have any accidents in this life due to many changes, but she, the owl, will become seriously ill.
"I don't know this, and I didn't ask in detail." Princess Yufeng said, "But I think it's nothing important."
After all, she wouldn't go to her mother if something important happened.
…
In the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, Princess Jingrong was sitting in a chair, twiddling her fingers painted with vermilion in a bored manner.
"How long will it take for the emperor to come over?"
Tired of waiting, she asked the little eunuch beside her.
