Chapter 6

The old lady, Madam Zhuang and everyone focused their eyes on Aunt Zhang, and nodded repeatedly: Aunt Zhang's long dress is indeed beautiful, but the eldest lady is still a girl, so she can't wear this style for the time being...

Only the old lady's complexion changed drastically, and her whole body trembled with anger. She pointed at Aunt Zhang and paused every word: "King Xuan of Chu passed away just over half a month ago. Come on, if you despise the royal family, the Zhongyonghou Mansion will be ransacked and beheaded!"

After entering the inner room, the old lady's thoughts were all on Murong Yu, and she never paid attention to others. How could she imagine that Aunt Zhang dared to be so rebellious.

"Mother, I'm sorry, there are many things in the Hou's residence, and my daughter-in-law heard that the eldest lady woke up, and she was in a hurry, so she put on this red dress by mistake!" Aunt Zhang knelt on the ground and kept admitting her mistake: Murong Yu, you are cruel.

The red dress on Aunt Zhang's body is actually just a little red on a white basis, and the color is very light, but now is an extraordinary period, and even the slightest mistake can become an excuse.

Aunt Zhang is an aunt, so she doesn’t need to go to the old lady’s place to pay her respects. She can only go to report some things at certain times, and there are all maids and mothers who flatter her. No one dares to blame her, so, That's why Murong Yu caught this mistake and hit him hard.

"What are you doing here, why don't you go back and change your clothes." The old lady's eyes flashed with anger, and her voice was stern: "Could it be that you want to make the Hou's mansion be ransacked!"

"What the old lady taught me is that the concubine should leave first!" Aunt Zhang stood up and slowly exited the inner room. The Marquis Manor pays attention to the rules everywhere, no matter how urgent the matter is, she must leave in a polite and dignified manner.

"Grandmother, don't be angry, Yu'er thinks that Aunt Zhang didn't wear the red dress on purpose." Aunt Zhang wore the red dress only because the light red color can better bring out her radiant complexion.

The old lady patted the back of Murong Yu's hand lightly: "Yu'er is such a good boy..." Aunt Zhang came from a low-level official family, and she can handle some daily chores. Yu's mother) is far behind, and in the future, she will spend more time on training and training, so as not to embarrass the Hou Mansion when she goes to a banquet one day.

"Sister Lin didn't come today, Yu'er wants to persuade her not to go to the rockery in the future..." Murong Yu was very docile and innocent.

"How do you say that?" Subconsciously, the old lady realized something was wrong.

"Yu'er used to go to the rockery to play, and it was fine. When she fell down the rockery that day, Yu'er was more careful than at other times, and she fell out of nowhere. Sister Lin also liked the rockery. Yu'er worried that she would one day Accidentally dropped..."

Murong Yu knew that Aunt Zhang hadn't gone far. The conversation between her and the old lady must have fallen into Aunt Zhang's ears verbatim. If Murong Lin really did something on the rockery, Aunt Zhang at this time would It must be very tense.

The orderly sound of footsteps outside the door suddenly became hurried. Although it was very light, Murong Yu heard: Aunt Zhang, Murong Lin, it really is you who are secretly playing tricks!

"Yu'er has grown up and knows how to care about people..." The old lady didn't mention the rockery, but Murong Yu could see from her deep eyes that she had already guessed the general situation, and some things should not be said too much. Understand, as long as you tap lightly, a smart person will know it well.

In a short period of time, Aunt Zhang dared not make any further moves, unless she no longer wanted to live in the Zhongyonghou Mansion.

"Yu'er, your mother has passed away for three years, and you and Lin'er have reached the age of marriage..." The old lady returned to her amiable expression just now.

"Grandmother wants to remarry father's wife?" In the capital, whether it is a businessman or an official, if the wife dies, they must remarry. Marriage requires both parents.

"There is no need to remarry. Aunt Zhang has been married to the Marquis Mansion for 15 years. She is smart and capable. In the past three years, she has managed the mansion in an orderly manner. After the country's filial piety, she has been supported as a regular wife..."

It turned out that it was all planned. The old lady didn't come to consult Murong Yu's opinion, but just told her that she was going to have a stepmother: "Grandmother has good eyesight, and Aunt Zhang is indeed virtuous and virtuous..." The biggest reason for helping Aunt Zhang to be his first wife is It's not that she is so smart and capable, but that she has a father who is a third-rank censor.

"Old lady, it's time for you to drink your medicine." Nanny Chai reminded her from the side, and the old lady patted her forehead with kind eyes: "Look at my memory..."

"Grandma's health is very important, so don't delay taking the medicine." Murong Yu wanted to lift the quilt and get out of bed, but was stopped by the old lady with a smile: "Yu'er is injured, so I can rest."

"Yu'er sent grandma off." Murong Yu sat on the bed to see her off.

After the old lady left, Murong Yu heaved a sigh of relief, closed his eyes, and said wearily: "Mother Zhuang, let the maids go down, I'm tired and want to rest for a while."

Nanny Zhuang waved her hand, and the maids blessed Murong Yu tactfully, and retreated quickly. Nanny Zhuang walked last, carefully covered Murong Yu with the quilt, and said carefully: "Miss, The nanny is right outside, if you need anything, you can just tell me."

Seeing Murong Yu nodding his head, his beautiful little face showing exhaustion, Madam Zhuang quietly exited the inner room.

When only Murong Yu was left in the whole room, she opened her eyes, looked at the curtain above her head, and her thoughts were flying: more than ten years ago, Xie Zixin was the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, and Murong Xiu was a match made in heaven. Auntie is the daughter of a Zhima official family in the capital, her status is low, she was accepted by Murong Xiu as a concubine, she is already a high ranking person.

Three years ago, on the day Xie Zixin and Murong An went to Xiangguo Temple to offer incense, King Suijin suddenly rebelled, and the two never returned. Three days later, the guards of the Hou's Mansion found the bodies of the two of them and the guards of the Hou's Mansion at the foot of the Xiangguo Temple.

It took more than half a year for King Suijin's rebellion to be quelled. People in the Hou's and the Prime Minister's houses thought that Xie Zixin and Murong An were killed by the rebel army, so they did not pursue the matter further.

If Murong Lin hadn't told Murong Yu the truth, she would never have imagined that the two of them were not killed by the rebels, but were killed by Aunt Zhang.

Three years ago, Zhang Yushi was the Zhima official. Even if Aunt Zhang coveted the position of wife, she would never dare to touch her mother and elder brother.

There is only one reason why Aunt Zhang dared to buy murders and kill people. There was only one reason: Aunt Zhang knew that King Suijin rebelled that day. He is confident enough to push the death of his mother and elder brother away.
