"Qi Xiejiao, do you not know how to write the word death until you die?" Lord Liu walked up to Madam Liu and sneered.
He sat down on the chair opposite Madam Liu with a sinister look in his eyes.
"Liu Borui, what do you mean?" Mrs. Liu was angry and immediately became annoyed and said in a shrill voice.
"What do I mean? I also want to ask you what you mean? If you want to die, go ahead and die, don't drag me and the Crown Princess down with you." Liu Borui's words almost burst out from between his teeth.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Even though she was the most angry, Mrs. Liu felt something was wrong at this time. After being stunned for a moment, she asked anxiously.
"Tell me what I am talking about. What is your relationship with Northern Frontier? Why did you send a letter to Northern Frontier? Did you do the assassination attempt?"
Lord Liu stared at Madam Liu, his words almost blurting out word by word.
"I-I don't understand what you are saying." Madam Liu felt a little uneasy and subconsciously softened her voice.
"Am I talking nonsense? I already know that you sent someone to take the letter out. Even if you are the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Qi, you will die if you get involved in such a thing. I will go to your house and ask my father-in-law why you did this. I want my father-in-law to explain to me what kind of woman you are."
Lord Liu said resentfully.
"Zhou Jinruo? Did that little bitch Zhou Jinruo say something? You believe what she said? Although this woman is young, she is a scheming person. Who knows what she means? It is possible that she came to harm me on purpose." Madam Liu panicked and cursed anxiously.
She asked Zhou Jinruo to deliver the letter. She originally thought that she would not dare to say anything, but she did not expect that she would even make a scene in front of Liu Borui.
"Zhou Jinruo? Yes, it was her. She told the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess asked me to investigate it clearly. If this is true," Lord Liu sneered.
"What does she want?" When Mrs. Liu heard that it was her daughter's idea, her face suddenly turned pale and her voice trembled unconsciously.
"What do you think she will do? Is she waiting for you to harm us? Qi Xiejiao, I have told you time and again to behave yourself. Your daughter is already the Crown Princess. What else are you dissatisfied with? But you keep acting recklessly and do things that will eventually lead to the extermination of your family."
Lord Liu sneered, "My meaning is what the Crown Princess meant. If you are not satisfied with the current situation and want to hook up with the people from Northern Frontier, then you should go back to Duke Qi's Mansion. We in the Liu Mansion cannot keep you, and we dare not want you as the mistress of the house. I will explain the truth of the matter to my father-in-law."
Did he tell the old Duke that he had connections with Northern Frontier? Did he say that the people in Northern Frontier were his people? Or did he secretly write a letter to the Second Prince of Northern Frontier
No matter which one it was, Mrs. Liu knew that she was doomed.
The old Duke hated evil, let alone the people from Northern Frontier. He had fought with them several times on the border and had the least favorable impression towards them.
What's more, he no longer has the affection he once had for me, nor is there the father-daughter relationship we once had. All I have left now is a little face left by my biological father's love.
"No, you can't do this." Madam Liu stood up suddenly and said quickly.
"Why not? You, the troublemaker, originally belonged to the Duke of Qi's Mansion. If there is any problem, the Duke of Qi will take the lead. What does it have to do with our Liu Mansion or the Crown Princess? From now on, whether you live or die has nothing to do with us. Just let the old Duke deal with you."
Lord Liu sneered, waved his hand, stood up and was about to leave.
"Don't go." Madam Liu grabbed Lord Liu.
Lord Liu swung his hand fiercely, and Madam Liu was pulled. She staggered a few steps unsteadily and fell heavily to the ground. Her leg, which had not yet fully healed, trembled with pain.
"Liu Borui, if you really want to divorce me and tell my father about this, I will say that you were the one who ordered me to do all these things. If I don't want to be well, you can forget about it either!" Mrs. Liu threatened harshly.
She couldn't go back anyway.
She still had a place for herself in the Liu Mansion. If she returned to the Duke of Qi's Mansion, she could foresee what her future would be like, and it would definitely not be a good ending.
"Why are you afraid? Aren't you afraid to let the old Duke know?" Lord Liu stood still and looked down at the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Qi in front of him.
For so many years, she has been high and mighty in the Liu Mansion. Even though I am her husband, she never takes me seriously. Now, seeing her kneeling in front of him in panic, he just feels relieved.
"Liu Borui, are you not afraid of me? No matter where we go, I will drag you out. I want to see how you explain and prove your innocence. In the Liu Mansion for so many years, there are many people from the Northern Frontier, and many were copied from our mansion. These people are really just what a simple weak woman like me should have. Liu Borui, you are the previous Minister of Industry, you are the most likely, and no matter where you go, others will only believe me."
Madam Liu gritted her teeth and said that she couldn't let Liu Borui get away with it at this time. Since it had come to this, she absolutely couldn't let Liu Borui send her back to the Duke of Qi's Mansion.
"Qi Xiejiao, you vicious woman, are you going to harm me and the Crown Princess?" Lord Liu looked at the woman in front of him gloomily and said slowly.
He came here prepared today, so he won't be so furious now.
Madam Liu raised her head and looked at Lord Liu. Even though she was in such an embarrassing situation, she still had a bit of pride on her face: "Liu Borui, if you were not me, how could you have come to this point, and how could you have given birth to the Crown Princess? If it wasn't my daughter, no one else's daughter would have been able to marry into the East Palace and marry the Crown Prince."
A big part of the reason why Liu Jingyu was able to marry into the Eastern Palace was because of the Duke of Qi's Mansion behind her and her careful operation at the time. Liu Jingyu almost missed the position of Crown Princess.
In this regard, Madam Liu was full of pride. If she had not carefully planned it, if she had not heard the news that the previous Crown Princess might not live long, she would not have deliberately delayed her daughter's marriage, because her daughter was going to marry King Jing at that time.
"So, you want to destroy us now?" Lord Liu's eyes fell on Madam Liu's face with undisguised disgust.
"Ruin you? I'm just helping my daughter. I want to help my daughter stand on that high position. I want our bloodline to reach that high position. Only the bloodline of my family can reach that position. The bloodline of others is not as noble as mine." Madam Liu glared back at Lord Liu coldly.
She will no longer hide it now. There is no point in hiding it now. She has her pride, and what she has always been proud of is her bloodline.
She has never been the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Qi. She is still the daughter of a princess, and the daughter of Princess Xian'an.
Lord Liu shuddered, "What are you talking about?"
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Madam Liu leaned against the corner of the table, not in a hurry to get up, and looked at Lord Liu with a mocking smile, "If my daughter marries into the East Palace, will the son she gives birth to in the future be the emperor? Even the crown prince is nothing now."
"What are you going to do?"
"I don't want to do anything. I just want to use the power of Northern Frontier to help my daughter reach that step and let the child born by my daughter become the future emperor of Great Zhou. This is what Great Zhou owes us." Madam Liu sneered.
Lord Liu looked at Madam Liu in front of him, and at this time he was disgusted: "You actually used the power of Northern Frontier? Why would the people of Northern Frontier listen to you? Your bloodline? You are just the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Qi's Mansion. Can your bloodline be more noble than those princesses and county ladies?"
"My bloodline? I am only the legitimate daughter of Duke Qi, Liu Borui. You already know everything, right? Why are you still not clear?" Madam Liu continued to mock. Even though she was kneeling on the ground, her aura was no weaker than Lord Liu's. "I have never been just the legitimate daughter of Duke Qi. I am the bloodline of Princess Xian'an. I am the bloodline of the royal family. If I had succeeded at that time, I might be a princess now. Why is my bloodline not noble?"
"You...you..." Lord Liu took a step back, pointed at Madam Liu but couldn't say a word.
"What? Are you scared? Do you think you're almost a princess or something like that? It's a pity that if I were really a princess, I wouldn't fall in love with someone like you. If it wasn't for Xiao Yue, who would be willing to marry you?"
"What's going on with Xiaoyue clan here?"
"How can she have nothing to do with it? Xiao Yue is the real daughter of the second house of Duke Qi's Mansion, not me. I am of a more noble status. If my background had not fallen into misfortune, how could you have been able to marry up to me?" Qi Xiejiao said disdainfully.
"You are the daughter of a traitor? You are actually the daughter of a traitor. No wonder the Duke of Qi's Mansion would not tolerate you. No wonder the old Duke is so good to the Princess of England. So that's how it is," Lord Liu stuttered.
He knew it was true, all of it.
If this was not the case, why would the Duke of Qi's Mansion distance itself from Qi Xiejiao and cut off ties with the Liu Mansion? The Duke of Qi's Mansion must have also discovered this matter.
Qi Xiejiao, this woman, is indeed a disaster. This woman, this woman
"The daughter of a traitor? That's not right. That was my grandfather. My mother is the one with the highest status in our lineage. She was also the leader among the three kings. If it weren't for me now, you wouldn't be able to marry me. Liu Borui, I've told you everything now, and you can't explain it clearly now."
Qi Xiejiao burst into laughter, leaning her head on the corner of the table, and the table shook twice with her laughter.
"You bitch!" Lord Liu stared at Qi Xiejiao tightly, "You are a lunatic."
"Mad? How can I, a person of noble blood, be a madman? My father, my mother, everything I have, was destroyed by them. What they owed me was originally mine. My daughter and my grandson will definitely ascend to that position in the future. Then I will announce it to the world and restore my identity, so that those people can see that everything they tried so hard to destroy actually existed. No matter what they do, I will win in the end."
Madam Liu continued to laugh, her eyes fixed on Lord Liu's face, not caring about the words Lord Liu had just said to her.
"Liu Borui, you should be happy. It was me who chose you. It was me who chose you. If it weren't for me, with your humble status, how could you have climbed to this level of wealth and honor?"
"So, you colluded with people from the Northern Frontier?" Lord Liu asked with a serious expression.
