Chapter 49 Execution of the Xiao Clan

Shen Tu was standing next to Mrs. Liang, half a meter away.

Mrs. Liang called her Mother Qiu, and she guessed it was Mrs. Liang's mother who had been by her side since she was a child.

Liang's family and Qiu's mother did not stay in Yuexiang cloth village for a long time. After they left Yuexiang cloth village, Shen Tu did not follow them anymore.

Just now Mrs. Liang said that Mu Chi and Princess Pingyang, Shen Cu knew that Princess Pingyang, although he had never seen his real face, he had also heard how much this Princess Pingyang was loved by the current Queen Mother.

But isn't Mu Chi going to marry Qi Yue?

Why did he have another marriage contract with the princess of Pingyang?
Why did Chunrong have contact with the Liang family?
……

After Mrs. Liang returned to the mansion, she called Uncle Fang. After that day at Fuhua Temple, Mrs. Liang locked Mu Chi again, let alone leaving the mansion, he couldn't even step out of the door.

Mu Chi didn't smash anything in the room this time, and he ate the meals Fang Bo brought him every day. Liang thought he had figured it out, so he called Fang Bo to open the lock.

Mrs. Liang is in a good mood recently, firstly because Mu Chi no longer insists on marrying the girl from the Qi family, and secondly because the Queen Mother bestowed a marriage on Princess Pingyang.

Fang Bo unlocked the lock and opened the door, and Mrs. Liang walked in happily.

"Chi'er, it's good if you can figure it out. Princess Pingyang is such a good girl, not a hundred times better than the second girl from the Qi family."

No matter what Liang said, Mu Chi remained silent.

Liang said again, "What's more, the second daughter of the Qi family is not innocent now, how can our Duke's mansion allow such a woman to marry in?"

Qiu's mother coughed at the side, but Liang Shi didn't react.

"Chi'er, Princess Pingyang has a good family background and is loved by the Queen Mother. You are married to her..."

"I will not marry her."

Before Liang could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mu Chi.

Liang Shi, who was still happy at first, suddenly changed his face.

Holding back her anger, she asked, "Who won't you marry?"

"Whoever you like, I will not marry anyone."

"You want me to die early so that you can marry that woman, don't you?" Liang slapped the table angrily.

"Madam, please calm down." Qiu's mother hurriedly ran her hands along Liang's back, "The doctor said that Madam should not be angry again, Madam must listen to the doctor."

Qiu's mother said to Mu Chi who was still lying there without any response, "Young master, you can't be angry with Madam anymore. Madam's headache was cured after a long time, and I'm going to make you angry again."

Clutching her heart, Liang began to cry loudly, "I almost lost my life and gave birth to a son. I didn't even want my own mother for a woman."

Although Mu Chi often made Liang Shi angry, this time it was different from the past.

His tense face relaxed slightly, "Mother, I didn't mean to anger you."

Mrs. Liang didn't speak, and the wailing was changed to sobs.

"Yue'er, I must marry. You know why she is being bullied, mother." Mu Chi said with red eyes, "As for Princess Pingyang, I won't marry."

Mrs. Liang didn't expect him to be so stubborn. "Princess Pingyang, you have to marry whether you like it or not. Unless I die, the girl from the Qi family will never take a step into the Duke's mansion."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Liang left in a huff.

"Fang Bo, continue to lock it for me. When he thinks about it, he will open it again."

Fang Bo could only follow, "Yes, ma'am."

"What do you think the second girl from the Qi family drugged Chi'er?" Liang said angrily, "Call Chi'er so brainless."

Qiu's mother agreed, "The second daughter of the Qi family is not a simple person. If she enters the Duke's mansion, the young master and his wife..."

Qiu's mother deliberately didn't finish her sentence, she said again, "You shouldn't let the young master know about that, otherwise the young master will definitely not want her again."

Mrs. Liang knew what Qiu's mother was referring to, and she also regretted it. Why did Mu Chi hear it.

"I heard that maid committed suicide?" Liang asked Qiu's mother.

Qiu's mother didn't expect Chunrong's maid would choose to hang herself, "I heard it is."

"Does she have a brother who owes us money?" Liang asked again.

"Yes." Qiu's mother nodded, "If her brother didn't owe us money, she would never agree to this matter."

"How much do you owe?" Liang asked.

"30 taels." Qiu's mother replied.

"Forget it, let's compensate the child."

The Duke's Mansion does not lack these 30 taels, and the Liang family doesn't care about the 30 taels.

After coming out of Yuexiang cloth village, Shen Tu went back. This Chunrong and Liang's, she couldn't figure out how they had an intersection.

Based on her understanding of Chunrong, Chunrong and Mu Guogong's mansion should be two parallel lines that do not intersect, and no one in Chunrong's family works in Mu Guogong's mansion.

"Qiqiao."

Qiqiao put her hands behind her back and walked in from outside the house, "Miss, did you call me?"

Shen Tu asked her, "Do you know the Liang family of Duke Mu's mansion?"

Qiqiao nodded, "I've heard of it."

"Then do you know the mother next to Mrs. Liang?" Shen Tu asked again.

"Mom?" Qiqiao shook her head, "I don't know."

Seeing that Shen Tu frowned, he seemed to have something on his mind.

"Miss, what's wrong with Mrs. Liang?"

"It's okay." Shen Tu shook her head, she hadn't figured it out yet, everything was just speculation.

-

After the Xiao family was accused of treason, there was finally movement from above.

Xiao Shengyuan was summoned into the palace, and did not come out again, rumors began to spread in the capital again, Xiao Shengyuan was summoned into the palace by the current Holy Majesty, he had already been convicted, and the Xiao clan would be executed soon.

Shen Tu was eating when he heard the rumors, he couldn't hold the bowl firmly, and the bowl fell to the ground and shattered.

"What did you say?"

"Now the Holy Majesty wants to kill the Xiao family." Qi Qiao said it again.

"Miss, miss." Qi Qiao chased and shouted, "Where are you going?"

Shen Tu didn't care about his hand cut by the shards, and hurried to the gate of Xiao's mansion.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Xiao in the mansion?" She knocked on the door and asked the young man who opened the door in a hurried voice.

"I don't know which Mr. Xiao is the girl looking for?" the boy asked.

There are four sons in this Xiao family, all of them are Xiao sons.

"Young master." She said again.

"Wait a minute, girl." The boy turned around and walked inside after dropping these four words.

Not long after, the boy came back.

"Girl, what do you want with my eldest son?"

Shen Tu was anxious, "You said my name is Qi Ye, and I need to see him."

"Girl wait a moment." The boy went in again.

This time, the servant didn't come back, it was Xiao Shilian who came.

The moment he saw Xiao Shilian, Shen Tu's eyes turned red.

"You'll be fine, right?" When she said this, she dared not look at him.

Xiao Shilian was a little confused, he couldn't understand this endless sentence.

"Fifth girl." He called out to her, "I don't understand what you said."

Shen Tu raised her head, tears were already in her eyes, "They said that the current Majesty wants...to..." She didn't want to say those words again.

Xiao Shilian's voice was flat, "You want to kill our Xiao family, right?"
