Chapter 358 The provocation fails, the sisters have a long talk (1)
Cheng Lan has become taciturn since the tragic death of her brother Jun, and rarely goes out.

Brother Yuan passed the full moon today, Cheng Lan listened to the vague noises in Changfeng Hall, recalled her lively and lovely younger brother, felt hurt by the scene, and wanted to go to her mother's side to do things with her, expecting that her mother would be more serious now. Feeling uncomfortable, she forced a smile on her face, so she stayed in the boudoir by herself, lazily lying on the bed.

Parents refused to tell her why the elder brother killed the younger brother, but Cheng Lan could guess for herself.

In the beginning, the sister-in-law died first, one dead and two killed, and the eldest brother went mad after finishing the funeral.It's crazy, so why did he target his younger brother?Thinking of her mother once framed her second brother for marrying Xie Jin, Cheng Lan wept silently.

Others said that her mother's beauty had confused her father, but Cheng Lan didn't believe it, because she knew that her mother didn't like her father very much, and that her father was kind to her mother because he really liked her.But after her mother framed her second brother, Cheng Lan understood that her mother was not as simple as she saw.

Was the sister-in-law's death related to her mother?The eldest brother found out the truth, so he arrested the younger brother for revenge?

Cheng Lan had a guess, but she didn't inquire further.

What is the use?

The eldest brother and sister-in-law are all dead, the younger brother is also dead, and the father and king have broken an arm. The mental appearance that used to look less than forty now really looks like it is nearly fifty years old.The mother lost weight day by day, and Cheng Lan knew that if she hadn't been unable to let go of her daughter, her mother might have died of heart a long time ago.

Such a good home, why did it become like this?

Cheng Lan was buried under the quilt, sobbing softly.

"Girl, Princess Shou sees you coming." Her eldest servant girl walked behind the screen and reminded her.

Cheng Lan's tears stopped, she quickly wiped her tears, and said softly: "Princess, please sit in the Nuan Pavilion, I will go there right away."

Didn't find it too strange.

Both she and Song Keying are relatives of the royal family, and they often meet at banquets and gatherings.Song Keying is mean and arrogant towards those she despises, but she will still do face-saving work for sisters who are not much different in status.

The eldest servant girl went to take the order, and served Song Keying first with tea and water.

Song Keying was useless, she looked at the furnishings in the Nuan Pavilion with little interest, and when she saw Cheng Lan coming, she didn't get up, she sat there with a smile and said: "I haven't seen my sister for a long time, today I'm congratulating Brother Yuan on the full moon, come and have a look Sister, why did Ah Lan lose so much weight?"

Cheng Lan forced a smile and looked at herself, "Is there any? I'm used to watching it every day, but I don't think so. I heard that the fourth sister-in-law is happy?"

Song Keying nodded, rubbed her stomach and said, "It's been almost four months, and it's only now that I can go out for a walk. In a few months, you'll have to go to the palace to see me."

Cheng Lan felt really uncomfortable, and she had no intention of dealing with the guests, and she cared less after a few words.

Song Keying winked at the maids serving beside her, and when they all left, she moved towards Cheng Lan and sighed softly: "I also cried when I found out that Brother Jun was gone, so cute Child... Hey, Ah Lan, don't be like this, don't cry, don't cry, it's because I'm stupid and can't speak!"

Cheng Lan fell on the table, crying bitterly.

Song Keying patted her on the back pityingly, "You can't come back to life after death, it's good for Ah Lan to cry for a while, and you have to take good care of yourself in the future, don't let auntie worry."

Cheng Lan cried and nodded, and after a while, slowly raised her body, turned her head and wiped her tears and said, "Let the fourth sister-in-law watch the joke."

"It's all right." Song Keying didn't take it seriously at all, and when Cheng Lan stopped crying, she asked suspiciously: "Brother Yuan is full moon today, why didn't you see your aunt go?"

Cheng Lan looked gloomy, and just about to find an excuse, Song Keying lowered her voice and said, "It's unreasonable, they just grounded my aunt, why didn't they even invite you as an aunt? I remember that you regarded Chu Han as your own sister-in-law, I didn't expect her to be so bullying!"

Cheng Lan raised her head, her face full of astonishment, "My mother... has something to do with them?"

Song Keying looked outside, looked at Cheng Lan sympathetically, and said, "When I entered the palace, I heard from the queen mother that Chu Han was worried that her aunt would be unfavorable to her, and insisted on going home to raise the baby, and she didn't want to come back after giving birth. Your second brother spoiled her , followed her to mess around, after Brother Jun left, they hinted in front of the saint that it was the aunt who was a hindrance to disturb the peace of the palace. The emperor believed it, and wanted to punish the aunt's crime, so uncle Wang begged again and again to change the ground. For the face of the clan, they sealed your second brother as the eldest son to appease them, so they moved back... Even if the aunt is at fault, what does it have to do with you? Could it be that Chu Han forgot how well you treated her before?"

After talking about it, I was very angry, but I was secretly proud in my heart.

King Jing dotes on Xie family and the pair of children born of Xie family so much, Cheng Lan and Xie family will definitely ask Jing Wang for help after knowing the "truth". If he wanted to deal with Cheng Yu and his wife, he could find a way, no matter what, he was a prince.

After hearing this, Cheng Lan's mind was in turmoil.

Emperor Mingde wanted to execute his mother?So, she almost lost her mother?
The more Cheng Lan thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she began to cry again.

Song Keying has said all she should say, this kind of secret provocation is the most important thing, so she can't go too far, so she coaxed Cheng Lan for a while, until Cheng Lan stopped crying, she got up and said goodbye.

Cheng Lan sent people out, and when she was walking back, she met Nuan He, the eldest maid next to Mrs. Xie, and asked her to come over.Xie's feet were grounded, but the maids beside her were allowed to enter and leave the palace. This was allowed by Cheng Jingrong, so that it was convenient for Xie to care about her daughter.
