Ning Elegy met Xiao Concubine's cool eyes, and his legs trembled involuntarily, "I tell you, the Shen family is a big celebrity around the emperor now, if I make a mistake, the Shen family will not let you go, Let me go if you know..."
Concubine Xiao snorted twice, stretched out her hand and patted Ning Yange's face twice, "You really know how to flatter yourself, it's just a concubine, who dares to say anything if you want to beat or kill."
"How dare you!" Ning Yange widened her eyes.
"Then try it!" Concubine Xiao pulled out the pearl hairpin from her head, aimed at Ning Elegy's fair cheeks, and Ning Elegy was so frightened that she leaned against the wall of the carriage, her back felt chilly.
Xiao Concubine raised her hand high, and Ning Elegy immediately screamed.
"Grandmother save me..."
Mrs. Shen asked someone to subdue Shen Yi, looked at Concubine Xiao, and said displeasedly, "This matter has nothing to do with you, it's not your turn to intervene, you are a girl's family after all, your hand is too long! "
Xiao Yu raised her long and narrow eyebrows, raised her lower jaw slightly to reveal a pointed chin, and there was a hint of arrogance between her brows.
"Mrs. Shen is getting old, and her mind is also confused. For a concubine, is it worth it to be divorced from your daughter-in-law's grandson and even your own son?"
Being publicly criticized by a junior, Mrs. Shen's face was flushed, her chest was heaving with anger, and she pointed at Concubine Xiao with trembling hands, "Presumptuous!"
"You are presumptuous, how dare you disrespect the county lord!" Xiao Yu yelled angrily, "This is at the foot of the capital, not a three-acre land in a villa. If Uncle Shen didn't respect you, who in the world would put your eyes down on you? No distinction between right and wrong, inside and outside, forcing her grandson to marry a shameless bitch, is it true that Mrs. Shen wants to force her second brother to death before giving up!"
Concubine Xiao's questioning one after another left Mrs. Shen speechless, and a burst of anger welled up in her heart, and she scolded directly, "That's none of your business. Since ancient times, the order of parents, how can the elegy not be worthy of him, and you What kind of thing is it, Lu Liyuan must have sent you to interfere, a good child was taught to disobey the elders, to do evil!"
Old Mrs. Shen showed her previous vigor, pointing at Concubine Xiao and scolding.
Xiao Yu said to the servant girl, "Please invite Uncle Shen and my father!"
"yes!"
Old Mrs. Shen stopped crying immediately when she heard this, and raised her voice, "Miss Xiao, how could the Shen family feel sorry for you? If you want to make this matter big, you won't care about the face of the Shen family at all!"
Concubine Xiao sneered, "The old madam brought so many people here because she wanted to make things worse. If I don't help you, wouldn't it be a disappointment to the old madam?"
"You!" Mrs. Shen choked, she just wanted Shen Yi to compromise and straighten Ning's elegy, she didn't come to make trouble.
"Well, let the girl inside come out, and let's discuss together what to do about this matter."
After all, Mrs. Shen still didn't dare to offend the Prime Minister, and felt frightened.
"How about letting Elegy and the girl in it marry Brother Yi together, and be a pair of sisters regardless of size?"
Mrs. Shen's eyes rolled, and she decided to take the next best thing, trying to find a way to straighten Ning's elegy before speaking.
Xiao Concubine gritted her teeth tightly and was passive everywhere. After all, Zhao Xianer was still in the carriage. After today, Zhao Xianer's reputation would definitely be damaged.
Xiao Concubine became angry when she thought about it, but it was her carelessness that Ning Yange took advantage of her loopholes.
She didn't intend to make the matter a big deal, she couldn't let Zhao Xian'er get involved, Xiao Concubine was thinking about it, Ning Elegy suddenly pushed Xiao Concubine violently.
"Hmph! I'm going to show everyone who this shameless person is!"
Miss Xiao was pushed away unexpectedly, and she was about to hit the rear wheel of the carriage, she was so startled that she stopped in a hurry.
The next moment, a jet-black figure appeared in time, quickly grabbed Xiao Yu's slender waist, and jumped up.
When Xiao Concubine raised her eyes, a cold fragrance penetrated into the tip of her nose, and her eyes lit up when she saw the person coming.
Zhao Zun's face was tense. If he hadn't arrived in time at that moment and fell hard on the rear wheel of the carriage, his entire face would have been ruined.
As soon as Ning Elegy's hand touched the curtain, his whole body was kicked away the next moment, and he landed on the ground with a bang, screamed, and fainted from the pain in his eyes.
Facing the person who came, everyone was startled, Mrs. Shen pointed tremblingly, "You...you!"
Putting Concubine Xiao on the ground, Zhao Zun exuded a cold aura all over his body, looked extremely angry, looked around with sharp eyes, and slightly lifted his thin lips.
"Bring back everyone present!"
"yes!"
Zhao Zun arrived with a large number of guards behind him, and soon surrounded the place.
Mrs. Shen was also startled by this evil spirit, she couldn't finish her sentence, she held the maid's hand tightly, and it took a while to regain her senses, "Why! What mistake did we make?"
"That's right, we common people haven't made any mistakes in the clear sky, and we can't arrest people for no reason. Is there any law?"
A nun bravely shouted something, which attracted many people to echo.
Zhao Zun raised his eyebrows and squinted at the crowd, "I just chased a fugitive assassin all the way, and I happened to catch up here, and the assassin was caught between you. You are protecting the assassin, could it be that you are the same party? Check it out."
Everyone was stunned, how could they dare to refute, saying one more thing is to cover up the assassin.
Rao old Mrs. Shen could not believe that there would be such a coincidence that the assassin would not come sooner or later, but he came at this time.
"How could we have assassins? These are all servants of the Shen family, that is, from Lord Shen's mansion. Mr. Zhao, do you think you have misunderstood?"
Mrs. Shen didn't want to leave, she hadn't seen the people in the carriage yet, she turned her eyes and pointed at the carriage, "Master Zhao, is there an assassin hiding in the carriage?"
Zhao Zun rolled his eyes at Mrs. Shen, "Are you contemptuous of this official's ability to handle cases?"
"Don't dare, dare not, that's not what I meant..." Mrs. Shen waved her hands repeatedly.
"My lord, the bloodstain just reached this area and disappeared. The assassin must be hiding among this group of people."
Zhao Qi cupped his hands, and what he said was serious.
Everyone turned their heads and saw that there were indeed some bloodstains on the ground, they were shocked and confused, there really was an assassin.
Mrs. Shen hurriedly said, "They are suspicious, so could it be that my old lady is also suspicious?"
Zhao Zun pursed his lips, "This assassin is very cunning, and he often pretends to be an old man or a child to deceive others."
Mrs. Shen was completely choked, she glanced at Concubine Xiao, and before she could speak, Zhao Qiji quickly blocked her mouth, babbling and unable to utter a word.
"Take them all away!" Zhao Zun ordered coldly.
"yes!"
Soon these people were all taken away, and Xiao Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
"Is there really an assassin?" Xiao Concubine asked softly, Zhao Zun angrily rolled his eyes at Xiao Concubine, Xiao Concubine shrank her neck and smiled flatteringly, "Thank you, Lord Hou, for saving me, the little girl is very grateful, if It’s convenient for Hou Ye to be a good person to the end, how about helping me vent my anger?”
Concubine Xiao likes Zhao Zun's abuse of power and false public affairs for personal gain!
"In the future, I won't be afraid of anyone in the capital. Anyone who dares to bully me will be arrested and punished!"
The more Xiao Yu thought about it, the more excited she became, her eyes narrowed, and she kept waving her small fists.
Zhao Zun put on a serious face, then leaned close to Xiao Yu's ear and murmured a few words, Xiao Yu blushed and heartbeat, stretched out his hand and punched Zhao Zun's chest, Zhao Zun grabbed it tightly and looked at Xiao Yu.
"No!" Xiao Concubine shook her head resolutely, she was ashamed to death.
Zhao Zun cleared his throat, whispered in Xiao Concubine's ear again for a while, Xiao Concubine stomped her feet, her cheeks were so red that she could be a monkey's butt, and she looked at him dubiously.
"really?"
Zhao Zun nodded solemnly, "In the future, Miss Xiao will go to battle in person for such trivial matters, and just leave it to the younger ones."
As he spoke, Zhao Zun rubbed Xiao Concubine's reddened palm, and Xiao Concubine agreed in a flash of excitement.
"Well, you are tonight!"
Just as Xiao Concubine was about to speak, Zhao Zun covered her delicate lips, followed her gaze, and Xiao Concubine fell silent.
"I still have to handle the case, let's take a step first, Miss Xiao should go back to the house as soon as possible, it's not safe here."
Zhao Zun regained his seriousness in an instant, cleared his throat, and acted indifferently as if the brazen person just now was not him.
Zhao Zun rode on the horse, looked back at Xiao Concubine, there was a trace of pampering gentleness in his eyes, and the other party still had lingering fears, and a trace of cruelty flashed deep in his eyes.
"Thank you Master Zhao for your concern, we will leave now."
Zhao Zun gave a hum, clamped the horse's belly with his crotch, and left in the dust.
Concubine Xiao settled down, and quickly raised the curtain, "Sister Zhao, are you alright?"
Zhao Xian'er's complexion was not very good-looking, her small face was pale, and she was frightened at first glance.
Concubine Xiao blamed herself, "It's because I didn't think carefully, which caused my sister to be frightened."
"No, it's none of your business." Zhao Xian'er regained her composure, holding Concubine Xiao tightly with one hand, "Thanks to Master Zhao's help today, if Master Zhao hadn't come, I still wanted to go out. People point their noses and scold me, I want to be with Second Brother Shen, I don't care what other people think, as long as Second Brother Shen recognizes me, no matter how difficult it is, I will stick to it."
Zhao Xian'er thought very clearly that even with the old lady around, she was only married to Shen Yi from the beginning to the end, so why should others care.
Xiao Yu smiled, "It's best for Sister Zhao to think so, let's go back."
It is simply that Mrs. Shen came out of the capital, and she was not familiar with it, and the people she brought were all maids and servants of Shen's residence. Those people had passed through Zhao Zun's hands, and Xiao Concubine would not worry about any gossip.
Zhao Xian'er nodded, after this incident, she felt calmer.
Shen's
Shen Liuyun's face darkened when he heard this, "How could mother have anything to do with the assassin?"
Lu Liyuan was full of anger and had nowhere to vent her anger, with a sneer on her face, "Mother brought a group of maids to block Brother Yi, Brother Yi just went for a walk with Xiaojiu, mother is fine, she doesn't know right from wrong Just curse!"
Shen Liuyun frowned when she heard the words, Lu Liyuan said again, "In my opinion, Aunt Ning is too disrespectful, she often instigates things in mother's ears on weekdays, if this continues, it will ruin Brother Yi's future sooner or later!"
Shen Liuyun was even more helpless when he heard it, he was caught in the middle of a dilemma, and he hated Ning Elegy even more in his heart.
"But now my mother is still in prison..."
Lu Liyuan smiled lightly, "Don't worry, I sent someone to look at it this afternoon. My mother is fine in prison. My mother just ran into an assassin by chance. It has nothing to do with my mother. She will be back tomorrow."
Lu Liyuan said so on the lips, but she was like a mirror in her heart, the assassin was just an excuse.
Hearing what Lu Liyuan said, Shen Liuyun breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up at Lu Liyuan, "Elegy has lost his mother since he was a child, and the mother just hurts a little bit. Although she lost her sense of proportion, we are all a family after all."
Except for Ning Yange's insistence on being stubborn, Mrs. Shen is better on weekdays, so he can't let Mrs. Shen be thrown out.
In private, Shen Liuyun persuaded him many times, but Mrs. Shen persisted wholeheartedly, and Shen Liuyun was helpless.
When Lu Liyuan heard this, the corners of her mouth curled up into a sarcasm, "Aunt Ruoning has a gentle and gentle personality, no need for mother to mention, I will naturally beg her for Brother Yi, no matter what others think, as long as my son doesn't want to be forced It's useless, I already gave in once because of Aunt Ning last time, if I give in again, what I will lose will be brother Yi's lifelong happiness!"
Lu Liyuan has a determined face, she will never allow Ning Elegy to ruin Shen Yi's life's happiness, a single aunt is enough for her to resist.
"But didn't you agree last time that as long as Elegy gave birth to a child within a year, you would set her up right?"
Lu Liyuan smiled when she heard the words, "That's what I said, but you can also see that Brother Yi doesn't stay at home all day and hides from Aunt Ning everywhere. Is it okay for Brother Yi to go and perform Zhougong's ceremony with Aunt Ning?"
"this… "
"She chose the path herself, no wonder others." Lu Liyuan added, "If there is no child within a year, I will ask for a wife for Brother Yi. This time, no one will stop me!"
Hearing this, Shen Liuyun pursed her lips and stopped talking, let everything take its course.
The next day, Mrs. Shen was sent back, she was more than ten years old and in a trance.
"The matter has been clarified. The matter of the assassin has nothing to do with the old lady. The man has been sent back, so farewell!"
Zhao Qi cupped his hands and said to Shen Liuyun, then turned and left.
"Mother." Shen Liuyun stepped forward to meet her, but she didn't want to be thrown away by Mrs. Shen, who glared at Lu Liyuan viciously.
"It's you who deliberately let the Xiao family intervene and made me suffer for nothing. You are so cruel!"
Lu Liyuan didn't expect Mrs. Shen to say anything nice, and said flatly, "Mother is really flattering me, how can I have that ability!"
"Hmph! Let me tell you, as long as I'm with you, that girl will never be allowed to enter the door. When Elegy returns, I'll straighten her up immediately!"
Mrs. Shen held onto Shen Liuyun's arm tightly, "Mother raised you up since childhood, and you have suffered so many grievances. You are just such a younger sister. As an uncle, you can just sit back and watch the dirge force people to ruin it!"
"Mother, back then we were the ones who spoke first, and Elegy couldn't be righted without a child." Lu Liyuan was also angry.
"Shut up!" Mrs. Shen sternly said, "This family's surname is Shen, so it's not up to you to intervene. Your disobedience to your elders is the greatest disfilial act. Don't think that I don't know what your intentions are. You must have secretly instigated it." Brother Yi, brother Yi will hide from the dirge, you poisonous woman!"
"grandmother!"
A cold voice came from not far away, and Shen Mo walked over with gloomy eyes.
"The father of that Miss Zhao is Mr. Jing Zhaoyin Zhao. If Cousin Yuan wants to take an official career next year and offend Mr. Zhao, he will be in trouble."
Mrs. Shen's expression turned ugly as if she had eaten a dead fly. Ning Yuan is Ning Yange's younger brother, and Mrs. Shen's best friend.
Shen Mo's words undoubtedly pinched old Mrs. Shen's weakness. Originally, Mrs. Shen really wanted to make a big noise about yesterday's incident, but now, she has extinguished her thoughts.
He argued forcefully, "Master Zhao can still use the public to seek personal gain?"
The smile on Lu Liyuan's face was a little cold, and Shen Mo was also silent.
Old Mrs. Shen glanced at Shen Liuyun and said, "Elegy is still in prison, you should quickly find a way to rescue her!"
"Grandmother, my father is new to the capital and is familiar with the capital, who can I ask for help?" Shen Mo was not close to this grandmother, with a calm expression, he directly poured cold water on Mrs. Shen.
"Of course it's right..." In the middle of speaking, Mrs. Shen choked again, it's no wonder Prime Minister You is willing to help her.
"Hmph! I can see it. You all want to die in Dirge. Everyone is gloating, it's inhumane!"
Old Mrs. Shen couldn't tell why, so she simply picked up this topic and vented her anger on everyone.
"Mother, once this matter is clarified, Elegy will come back naturally. I believe Mr. Zhao will not wrong Elegy."
Shen Liuyun was quite helpless towards Mrs. Shen, and didn't know where to start.
Lu Liyuan only felt that Mrs. Shen's one-night stay was too little, and she should have suffered more and worked harder!
