Chapter 17 The Queen Mother’s Protection
  Shen Heshan personally greeted him, and other people from the Taishi Mansion also came out after hearing the news.
  Aunt Guirong has been with the Queen Mother for many years and has long been accustomed to various scenes. After bowing, she said to Shen Heshan: "Master Shen, I am here to send the second young lady back on the order of the Queen Mother."
  "Wei Chen, thank you, the Queen Mother, for your kindness." Shen Heshan said with a gentle smile on his pale face, "Can I trouble you to make a trip in person?"
  After he finished speaking, the attendant beside him handed a heavy purse forward.
  Aunt Guirong glanced at the purse but did not accept it. Instead, she pulled Shen Zhuoxi to her and said, "Master Shen, the Queen Mother still has a few words to say."
  "When Princess Xiaoqing passed away suddenly, Si Tianjian deduced that the evil star was reincarnated in the second young lady, and she was born with a bad fate. As a result, the second young lady who should have been praised by all the stars has been despised since then.
  "Something happened to Si Tianjian yesterday. A thorough investigation revealed that those remarks were made by someone who bribed Si Tianjian and framed them for the second lady."
  "Who is so bold?" Yu Qinglian suppressed her fear and interjected: "Have you found out?"
  Aunt Guirong was dissatisfied with her interjection, frowned and said: "We haven't found it yet, but since we have done it, it is impossible not to leave traces. It will be a matter of time before we find it. Madam, don't you think so."
  "Yes, yes, we will definitely find it out." Yu Qinglian smiled with her face, then saw Granny Cui behind her, whose life and death were unknown, being carried by the maids, and asked in surprise: "What crime has this woman committed?"
  Aunt Guirong's smile gradually faded: "She was full of lies, and she dared to hide them right under the eyes of the Queen Mother. She insulted the second young lady for being ignorant. She was not beaten to death for the sake of the Grand Master's Palace."
  "The Queen Mother has said that if there are any more bruises on the second young lady's body, people from the Grand Master's Mansion will be held accountable."
  "This, this..." Yu Qinglian's knees weakened and she reluctantly explained: "I have never done anything to the second young lady. It is really unfair."
  Aunt Guirong gave her a hand and said: "My wife was born in the Earl's Palace. Although she is not a direct descendant, the Queen Mother believes in the teachings of the Earl's Palace, and she also believes that my wife is as virtuous and generous as the outside world reports."
  "But if you don't do it, there's no guarantee that some people will do it, just like this woman, what do you think?"
  Yu Qinglian nodded mechanically: "Yes, yes, after all, it was my lax control. I thought that the second lady was the reincarnation of a demon star, and ordered people to stay aside and not to disturb her. This encouraged those who are not discerning to become cowardly."
  "Okay." Aunt Guirong interrupted her and said, "The Queen Mother also said that after it is found out that she was wronged, the words reincarnation of the demon star must not be mentioned again, and the slave must return to the palace to recover her life."
  "Master, madam, I will leave the second lady to you two."
  "She is Weichen's daughter. Weichen will treat her well." Shen Heshan quickly took over the words and said, "Please take Weichen to greet the Queen Mother."
  Although Aunt Guirong left, the maid who dragged Aunt Cui did not leave.
  Yu Qinglian was full of questions and angry. She wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. She wanted to say but didn't dare to say. She had to smile and pretend to be generous. Her cheeks were stiff, and she greeted Shen Zhuoxi.
  But Han Xiangru didn't have the eyesight yet, so she laughed and said: "It seems that the second lady is going to turn over, tsk tsk, that's incredible!"
  "Stop saying a few words." Shen Heshan was not much better and scolded: "Everyone heard what Sister Guirong said just now. Don't mention those words in the future."
  "Go do what you have to do, don't hang around here!"
  People left one after another, leaving Yu Qinglian with Shen Xinyu, Shen Jingya and Shen Zhuoxi staring at each other.
  Aunt Cui on the ground snorted from time to time. Yu Qinglian was irritated and said in an unhappy tone: "Aunt Cui, if you offend me, beat the second young lady and beat her to death with a stick!"
  Aunt Hua hesitated to speak, and whispered, "We still need to find out what happened in the palace, or wait until someone wakes up before we complain?"
  "What Aunt Guirong means is what the Queen Mother means." Yu Qinglian said coldly: "If you are still here, why don't you wait for the Queen Mother to give the order personally? As for the matter, you send someone to investigate!"
  After Mammy Hua responded, she looked at the maids not far away and asked: "Then these maids coming out of the palace..."
  "Since the Queen Mother didn't say to stay, I'll wait until Nanny Cui is dealt with, then pretend to be stupid and send her back." Yu Qinglian thought about the dilapidation of Xiaoxiang Tower. If she was seen by these people, she told the Queen Mother that she would cause trouble again, her voice became more and more impatient. .
  The Queen Mother's attack really caught them off guard!
  Not only Yu Qinglian, but the entire Taishi Mansion didn't know how to deal with it. After all, except for Aunt Ju, all of them beat or scolded Shen Zhuoxi to some extent!
  After sending Nanny Hua to send Shen Zhuoxi back, Shen Jingya couldn't wait to ask: "Mother, what does the Queen Mother mean?"
  "What else could it mean?" Yu Qinglian was extremely confused and said: "You have insulted Shen Zhuoxi a lot in the past, so come and apologize immediately."
  "You want me to apologize to that fool?" Shen Jingya pouted and said reluctantly, "I won't go!"
  Yu Qinglian was distraught and couldn't bear it any longer. He raised his hand and slapped her in the face, saying: "She has the support of the Queen Mother. Who do you think you are? If you want to save your life, hurry up and go!"
  This was the second time Shen Jingya was beaten.
  The first time was that Shen Zhuoxi did it himself.
  The second time was because Shen Zhuoxi, her mother who had never spoken harshly to her, attacked her!
  They are all Shen Zhuoxi!
  Shen Jingya was filled with anger and wanted to rush to Xiaoxiang Tower immediately and beat that little fool to death!
  She covered her face, her expression even more surprised than the slap she received. She felt hateful, aggrieved and sad. Her eyes filled with tears and she said, "Mother, are you going to hit me?"
  "You do what your mother tells you to do. It's also for your own good to hit you." Shen Xinyu warned her softly before she behaved: "Take a good look at what happens to Aunt Cui. If you don't protect me, you will be the next one."
  Aunt Cui was covered in blood, and Shen Jingya was so frightened that she trembled and ran away crying.
  There was no one around, so Shen Xinyu finally spoke: "Mother, do you believe what I say now?"
  With no outsiders around, Yu Qinglian took off her disguise, her eyes were wide open, and her ferocious expression was about to burst: "Is she really not stupid? Ten years ago, the master personally handed the medicine to me."
  "And I promised that there will be absolutely no antidote! Did she not take it at all? But a five-year-old child, what does she know?"
  Shen Zhuoxi's reactions over the years are not like those of a normal person, even if they are disguised, it is impossible.
  Shen Xinyu thought for a moment, wondering what the problem was. She paused and whispered: "The Queen Mother has become suspicious. If Shen Zhuoxi really recovers, we will all be in trouble."
  "For the current plan, we can only deal with her completely before anything happens."
  Yu Qinglian also thought about this, but she was still worried: "It's easy to say. Since the Queen Mother is suspicious, she will always ask people for news about Shen Zhuoxi."
  "If we start now, wouldn't it be obvious that we are telling Too Hou that we are guilty of harming others?"
  "My mother, you are so angry." Shen Xinyu smiled softly, her face was like a peach blossom, but the words she said made people shudder: "There is a ready person to hold the knife for us."
  "Shen Jingya?" Yu Qinglian said suspiciously: "She has such a temperament that she wants to write everything on her face, which is not enough to accomplish anything."
  "The more this happens, the easier it will be to fall into the trap, and I'm afraid she will have deep thoughts." Shen Xinyu finished her words.
