When Hong Wa died, Aunt Fu didn't react much. She even told the princess that she had misjudged the person. She didn't expect that Hong Wa had a heart as high as the sky. No wonder her life was as thin as paper.
After all, no one in the house would handle such a thing in this way, and they couldn't blame others, and no one took it to heart.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Fu, who seemed indifferent on the surface, secretly held a grudge against the princess and poisoned her with poison. Su Ningxin knew very well that Aunt Fu was conspiring with Concubine Li, but the princess did not know, because Aunt Fu In the end, Concubine Li was not revealed.
At first, Aunt Fu poisoned herself. Later, when she got older and was no longer with the princess, she promoted some maids and then threatened them with poisoning.
Those maids knew the status of Aunt Fu, and they would not believe her if she disobeyed or exposed Aunt Fu. In the end, they would be the ones who suffered, so they did as they were told.
In this way, Aunt Fu poisoned the princess for twenty years right under her nose.
Speaking of this, Su Ningxin had to sigh, Concubine Li is really a good person!
If Su Ningxin were to be replaced by Concubine Li, why would she be in such trouble? Just put a poison that would sterilize her for life, and then she would never have to worry about it again.
Moreover, Concubine Li had been taking this medicine for twenty years, but after stopping taking it for a few days, the princess became pregnant again. This made Su Ningxin feel that this was some kind of magic medicine, with no side effects at all.
Just as Su Ning was thinking, she heard the princess ask, "Ning'er, do you think I'm being too soft-hearted in dealing with Aunt Fu like this?"
[Of course, if it were me, I would definitely let her know what it means to die badly.]
She was thinking this in her heart, but Su Ning could not say this in her heart, "My mother is kind and remembers her old feelings. Aunt Fu is old and can't live long in a miserable place like Zhuangzi, so there is no need to be too harsh." "
The princess smiled and said, "You still understand my thoughts."
[Can you guess it with just one guess?]
Su Ningxin lowered her head and smiled shyly.
"I think they were also instigated to commit such a wrong thing, and they didn't really cause me to be infertile, so they didn't take their lives." The princess said to herself, probably just trying to convince herself.
Su Ningxin's curiosity was aroused, "Who instigated it?"
She naturally knew that the person in charge was Concubine Li, but she estimated that if she was caught, the house would never be so peaceful. She must have listened to her words and introduced a scapegoat.
The princess replied, "It's Mrs. Ying. You should have seen her when you entered the mansion that day. I wonder if you still remember her?"
Su Ningxin nodded and said that she still remembered that Mrs. Ying was Chu Qingzhu's aunt and she had only one child. Now that Chu Qingzhu had lost power in the palace, she was also implicated. Concubine Li would be good at choosing candidates.
"How did Mrs. Ying deal with it?" Su Ningxin asked.
"Sent to the ancestral hall for cleaning." The princess said casually. Maybe the princess didn't know who the real culprit was, but she definitely knew that Mrs. Ying was a scapegoat. She was just not sure if the prince pushed it out to appease her, so she just sent it to her. Forget about the ancestral hall.
She had already asked everything she wanted to know, and Su Ningxin stopped talking about this topic.
Seeing that the two of them had been talking for a long time, and there was a maid over there waiting for a reply, Su Ningxin smiled and said, "Concubine, the two of us were so busy talking that we forgot about her. By the way, what's her name?" , is it also red wax?”
"I really forgot. I don't like the name Hong Wax, so I named her Hongying." The princess explained to Su Ningxin, then looked back at Hongying and asked, "What are you going to report? ?”
Hongying waited for a long time but did not dare to complain at all. When the princess called her name, she immediately replied, "To the princess, those craftsmen have entered the house. Sister Hongzhu asked the slaves to ask how to place them?"
"Well, if the housekeeper doesn't come back, I will have to personally take care of these matters. Just let them live in the outer courtyard and arrange for them to build the Buddhist Incense Pavilion."
The Buddhist Incense Pavilion was built by the princess for Su Ningxin to worship Buddha, but it was estimated that it would not be completed in a year or two.
"Thank you, concubine, for caring for Ning'er." Su Ningxin had a lot of polite words to say. Anyway, saying a nice word would not make her lose any weight, and it would also gain the princess' favor.
Having said that, Su Ningxin would also be very happy if she could lose a piece of meat. Since there are many secret guards in the prince's palace, and many rough servants, maids and women in her yard are not hers, she doesn't dare to practice martial arts at will. , which makes her seem to have gained weight recently.
The princess smiled playfully after listening to Su Ningxin's words, "Actually, in such a hurry to find someone to enter the house, I originally planned to let them build a wall to surround Concubine Li's yard. The wall on the side of the passage Open another door."
"Hmph, since she doesn't belong to my backyard, she shouldn't be an eyesore in front of me, but since she's sensible, I won't care about her."
Su Ningxin looked at the princess and laughed too. The princess's move was really amazing, and the princess looked more like a mischievous child. Su Ningxin felt that the princess was actually living a good life, after so many years. She didn't become like those harried women.
While the princess was happy, Su Ningxin said, "Mother, I want to go for a walk on the street. I want to see what jewelry styles are popular in the silver shops in the north. I also want to buy some safety locks for my unborn brothers and sisters. , express your feelings."
The unborn younger sibling naturally refers to the one in the princess's belly, and she will also call her younger sibling as Chu Jihan calls her.
Of course, this is just Su Ningxin's excuse. Among the jewelry she brought, there were many safety locks and safety buckles, which could be given to the prince's children. She just wanted to go out. Just playing.
The princess did not restrict her in this regard, but just asked her to bring more guards. The north is not as good as the capital, and mediocre people from the north often sneak into the city. It would be bad if she encounters an assassination again.
At this time, the princess suddenly remembered Su Ningxin's very smart bay red horse, and said that if Su Ningxin could ride a horse, she could also ride a horse. The people in the north didn't care much about this, and there was no problem in riding a horse.
The princess said with some regret, "It's a pity that I can't ride a horse. The management in the capital was very strict when I was a child, and I wasn't allowed to ride a horse at all. Then when I came here, I couldn't learn because of my status. Wouldn't it be wrong if I really fell off the horse? Make people laugh.”
"Next time, let's find a secluded place and I'll teach the concubine how to ride a horse. If the concubine really falls, I won't tell anyone." Su Ningxin said teasingly, causing the princess to laugh as well.
