Chapter 1564: Tiger Girl 48
After all, I have been by my side for eighteen years and have given birth to two daughters. It is a bit unbearable to say that I want to deal with it.
A man of flesh and blood, who values love and righteousness, is a real man.
But if Aunt Xu doesn't die, she will be like a bomb, exploding at any time and destroying the entire Zhenguo General Mansion.
In order for General Zhao to make up his mind, Xi Ning said leisurely: "There is another thing that is unknown about the daughter. When the mother gave birth to her daughter, the father happened to be at the border and his life and death were unknown. Not many people in the mansion knew about it, and they kept it a secret. I’m afraid something will happen to my mother. How did my mother know about this?”
General Zhao sat there, his expression getting increasingly ugly.
Instead, it was Zhao Yingyue who spoke: "It was someone from Aunt Xu's hospital who accidentally revealed it to my mother."
The words "unintentionally" are quite strong.
If something happened to Mrs. Zhao, Aunt Xu would not be of any benefit as a concubine. Even though she was the nominal adopted daughter of the Prince of Bohai County, when she was brought into the palace, she was not treated as a noble concubine, but as an ordinary concubine. In order to "avoid suspicion", the dowry given by the Prince of Bohai County was not large.
If Mrs. Zhao dies, the position of the general's wife will be vacant, and you can find a way to squeeze someone in. The new lady may not be as kind as Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao is also a rare person. Even if she doesn't like her and gives her some shoes to wear, she has never really treated her badly. If she were the head mistress of another house, she would rely on her husband's indulgence and love to secretly kill the concubine she brought in, and tell the public that she died of illness.
Aunt Xu's behavior was obviously "instigated" or ordered by someone.
General Zhao sighed, obviously convinced. My wife didn't want anyone's life, but she wanted Mrs. Zhao's life. This alone was enough reason.
Xining added: "No one will touch the general's mansion yet. Help the second sister find a suitable marriage as soon as possible."
General Zhao's brows twitched, which reminded him. Even if she is a concubine, she must observe filial piety as a biological child, otherwise it will be unfilial. If the biological mother is a concubine, if not three years, but at least one year. Without a biological mother, a concubine who gets married will be gossiped about if her marriage is slightly unsatisfactory. While the General's Mansion is still at its peak, it's okay to act like a eldest daughter and find a son of a small official from outside the capital to be your main wife.
He nodded: "I will discuss this with your mother."
Xining said with a smile: "There is also the third brother's marriage, and I am still waiting for the third sister-in-law to come in."
"Afraid, you're teasing me again." Zhao Yingyue suddenly blushed.
General Zhao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, which instantly dispelled a lot of gloom in the room.
After General Zhao thought for a while, he finally said it: "Something in the palace has some clues." Seeing that his youngest daughter had already developed the ability to judge, he did not hide some things, so that she could know early and be on guard.
So fast? Xi Ning raised his eyebrows slightly.
There seems to be nothing unusual in Xiangyuan, but in fact, careful people have already discovered the clues.
Mr. Zhang among the noble sons, because his father and brother both solved cases, asked people to avoid the original footprints inside. Following the footprints, I found a dung bucket with residual filth inside.
Then I found another place where dirt had been spilled.
After analysis, the plan was to lure Zhao Yingyue there, push her to the dirty ground, let her clothes be stained with feces, and make her stinky and embarrassed.
Searching everywhere for the missing palace maid, the body was finally found in a well. Now the clues are gone, and nothing really happened, so let it go.
The corners of Xining's mouth curled up slightly.
If she "accidentally" or "slips on her own feet" and falls into this pile of excrement, she will really stink in it for half her life. From now on, I think of the concubine of the Zhenguo General's Mansion. She is not arrogant and stupid, but she makes herself stink in the palace. Zhao Yingyue couldn't help frowning: "Tailing other people's clothes is too mean and petty. It seems to be done by a woman."
Xining said lightly: "What virtue and ability do I have to let others scheme against me like this? It's a pity that I gave away the life of a palace maid in vain."
General Zhao and Zhao Yingyue also understood that being able to allow a palace maid to do things and silence her afterwards was definitely not a low status.
In fact, if you want to investigate further, you can ask the people around the palace maid to see if anyone has looked for the palace maid during this period. What is the origin of this palace maid, who else is in the family, where did the dung bucket come from, who took it... It's not that there are no clues, you can follow the clues and investigate. The reason why nothing was left was that the officials and the queen did not want to investigate further.
The reason why I don't want to investigate further is that I already know basically who did it, and I don't want to make the matter a big deal.
General Zhao frowned: "Jiashun County Lord hates you so much?"
Zhao Yingyue rolled her eyes: "It's more than annoying. The third prince's eyes never left my little sister when she was having fun."
Xining smiled bitterly: "Young ladies are sitting together, how do you know you are looking at me?"
Zhao Yingyue turned and blinked: "She is far away from you. Don't talk about me. Even others can see that the direction he is looking at is definitely not the Lord of Jiashun County."
In order to show off himself and show his noble status, the Lord of Jiashun County sat on the edge of the ladies' seat, close to the ladies' seat. She didn't get along with the Lord of Jiashun County, so she wanted to avoid any interaction, so she sat on the other side.
Xining had a headache: "That's not necessarily because of me. There are so many noble ladies around me."
Zhao Yingyue said with certainty: "But you are the most beautiful, and none of the noble ladies around you are as good as you."
After thinking about it, it was true that the fathers and brothers of the ladies around me all had smaller official positions, and those with higher official positions sat next to the Lord of Jiashun County, close to the ladies' table.
I was speechless for a moment, unable to find any words to defend myself.
"Okay, okay!" General Zhao's head hurt.
When did you mess with the third prince again? Never be chosen to be the third prince's concubine. Although the third prince's talent and appearance are among the best among the princes, as a prince, at least one concubine will be carried into the palace for this wedding. Wouldn’t it be true that as soon as her daughter gets married, she will compete with other women for her husband?
Moreover, there will be no shortage of women who will become princes and princes in the future. In order to spread their branches and spread their leaves, the royal family will have many concubines.
Xi Ning was very sure: "If you want to see it, just see it, and you won't miss a piece of meat. It's useless to see it, you won't pick me out!"
General Zhao was stunned. Yes, if the third prince marries the Zhenguo General's Mansion, it will not be obvious to the officials that he has ambitions.
Zhao Yingyue reminded: "You can use Yin, and then you will say that you have to marry for reputation."
It didn't take long for him to use the dirty trick before he returned it to her. This third brother really knew how to learn and use it immediately. Xining was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. This was good, at least Zhao Yingyue could be more cautious and reduce the possibility of being plotted, and followed General Zhao's old path.
Well, it is indeed possible... General Zhao narrowed his piercing tiger eyes.
It seems that the secret guards given are not enough. I will send two more later.
After General Zhao thought it through, he said in a deep voice: "Don't tell anyone what happened today. As a father, I have my own opinions and will make arrangements. You two, go down!"
