Chapter 66
She was frightened and frightened, and more importantly, she was disappointed with Wei Qinru, but she had to bite the bullet and protect her, "Mother, Qinru is still a child, there must be some misunderstanding here! Why are you forcing her like this? ?”

Aunt Xiping spoke at the right time, "Madam, you just said that Miss Qinru was unjust. Now that the mistress wants to report to the official, you also said that Miss Qinru is not sensible. You are blaming the mistress in your words. What is the reason? Servant I only know that the state has national laws, and the family has family rules. Since my wife does not obey the family rules, it is most appropriate to deal with it according to the national laws, isn't it?"

"I" Su Shi was speechless and bit her lip.

Mrs. Liu's expression was extremely ugly. She slammed the table, pointed at Wei Qinru and scolded, "You bastard! How could you do such a thing? Why don't you explain everything clearly? If you don't say anything, you will leave the Wei Mansion." , even if the head of the family comes forward to protect you! The rest of your life will be ruined! And your father and brother will be stained because of your nonsense, how can you bear it? "

Mrs. Su still wanted to defend Wei Qinru, but Mrs. Liu reminded her that if the matter really got bigger and Wei Qinru was found guilty, their family would really be doomed!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Su resented Mrs. Zhou for being ruthless and complained that her daughter was ignorant, feeling extremely tormented.

Wei Qinru was so frightened that she was sweating profusely. Originally, she had made up her mind to deny it, but she didn't expect that Zhou would mention the Shenxing Department.

Even if she has never seen the world, she still knows where the Shenxing Department is. Lord Jun Yao is also known as the Iron-faced King of Hell. Back then, in order to investigate an unjust, false and wrong case, Lord Jun Yao single-handedly brought down the Queen's family. In Duke Cheng'en's Mansion, if she really falls into the hands of Master Jun Yao, even if that person is willing to protect her, he may not be able to protect her.

"I, I." Wei Qinru trembled.

Everyone in the room held their breath and stared at her.

This is the report from the housekeeper in a hurry, "Mother, someone from Xiyue Palace has said that the imperial concubine has invited the eldest young lady, Miss Qinru, to enter the palace."

Everyone in the room was surprised. Su Shi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and fell limply to the ground.

Zhou's lips curled up in confusion, "Inviting two young ladies who have not left the palace to enter the palace in the middle of the night? The imperial concubine is really elegant! Why don't I, the mistress, go to the palace with them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the imperial concubine's personal maid, Hong Zhu, entered with several palace attendants.

Hongzhu bowed respectfully to Mrs. Zhou and said, neither humble nor overbearing: "Mrs. Wei, the imperial concubine is ill today. She slept for a long time during the day, but it was hard to sleep well at night. The night is long, and the empress would like to invite some ladies from aristocratic families to come into the palace to talk to her. .”

A trace of understanding flashed in Zhou's eyes, and her lowered eyes covered up the fleeting hatred. When she raised her eyes again, she was calm and calm, "Since the imperial concubine has a destiny, how can she not obey? But?" My Yuzhu is currently bedridden and cannot enter the palace, so let’s let Qinru go there! If someone comes, why don’t you take Miss Qinru down to freshen up quickly?”

Su wanted to say no, but when she looked back at her daughter's messy bun and dirty clothes, she swallowed her words again.

Hongzhu was satisfied with Zhou's understanding of current affairs, and was about to turn around when she heard Zhou say: "Show the evidence to Mr. Junyao of the Criminal Punishment Department, and Mr. Junyao will personally investigate it thoroughly. There must always be an answer to what is right or wrong. , this mistress must also explain to the Wen family."

Hongzhu's complexion changed, and she immediately turned around and asked respectfully: "Mrs. Wei, I wonder what the eldest lady's illness is? The imperial doctors in the palace have the most superb medical skills. Why don't I ask some of the imperial doctors to come over and take a look at the young lady?"

"Miss Hongzhu, please don't worry. There are many talents in the palace, and there are also talented people outside the palace. Since the imperial concubine is ill, it is important for Miss Hongzhu to return to Xiyue Palace to serve the empress." Zhou's attitude became inexplicably cold.

Hongzhu's face changed back and forth a few times, then she sneered and shut up.

Wei Qinru quickly packed up her things and left with her maid Mo Zhu closely following Hongzhu and the others.

Seeing that her daughter was gone, Mrs. Su let out a sigh of relief, struggled to get up and left.

Mrs. Liu and others looked at each other in confusion. The person next to the imperial concubine came by chance tonight, and they were obviously here for Wei Qinru. If Wei Qinru really betrayed the Wei family and defected to the Gongsun family, the situation would be serious.Although Mrs. Liu wanted Wei Qinru to marry into her natal family, she would never do so if Wei Qinru had any problems.

"Mother, this is what happened." The clan members frowned, breaking the silence in the room.

Mrs. Zhou looked over and sighed sadly, "This is what the aunts and uncles saw! Wei Pengcheng wanted to go one step further and planned to send Wei Qinru into the palace. It seemed that Wei Qinru had already talked to the people in the palace. The royal concubine has made a good relationship!"

"What? Is Wei Pengcheng crazy?" Mrs. Liu stood up excitedly, spitting, "Our Wei family is one of the most powerful families in Dragon City. We would rather break than bend to win the glory on horseback, even if it means death. He has to fight to the death! He actually wants to rely on such unsavory means to gain power?"

When Mrs. Zhou saw Mrs. Liu, she was so angry that she almost fainted, so she quickly went to Aunt Xiping to comfort her.
"In addition to this news, there is another news. The Gongsun family wants to marry Xiwuhou. Originally, I thought that Xiwuhou was also a military commander and was with our Wei family, so he could get married. Now both Gongsun and the Wei family are interested in Xiwu. Prince Hou, Yuzhu happened to be poisoned and disfigured at this time, I have to think too much!"

Zhou's words revealed a lot of information, and no one here was stupid. They quickly figured out the twists and turns inside, and everyone turned pale with anger.

Mrs. Liu took a deep breath and said: "Mother, please report to the official! Yuzhu is the only girl in the direct line of the Wei family. She cannot accept this kind of injustice without knowing it."

Mrs. Zhou smiled happily and said, "Thank you for your support, aunt. I will send someone to the Punishment Department right now."

After sending Liu and others away, Zhou's face became completely grim.

Aunt Xiping whispered from the side: "Madam, Wei Qinru is so lucky that the imperial concubine did not hesitate to send her personal maid to protect her!"

Zhou twitched her lips mockingly, "Bao? From the dragon pond to the tiger's den, let's see if she has the ability to get out of the palace alive!"

"You mean?" Aunt Xiping was so frightened that she covered her mouth, "No way! If you do this, the imperial concubine will completely offend Wei Pengcheng!"

Zhou shook her head, "The palace is in such chaos and there are so many scapegoats, so why bother to come forward personally!"

"Then we just admit it?" Hongdou, the eldest maid on the side, muttered in frustration.

Zhou smiled and said nothing.

Aunt Xiping snorted softly, "How is it possible! The mistress has a daughter like the eldest lady and protects her like jewels. How can it be possible for the eldest lady to swallow this breath in vain?"

Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief and didn't ask how Zhou did it.

Her reaction made Zhou feel much better.

Mrs. Zhou looked at Grandma Xiping and asked, "How's it going over there at Yuzhu?"

"Leave it to the eldest young master. The eldest young master promises to hold off the eldest lady. The eldest lady did not show up tonight."
