The rebirth of the poisonous girl is back

Chapter 31
Jinling, Right Prime Minister's Mansion, Linglong Courtyard.

On the warm couch with pear and snake patterns on the jade screen, a beautiful woman wearing a gown with a pipa lapel and a big roll of golden branches and green leaves props her cheeks with one hand and closes her eyes to rest her mind. Two pretty little maids wearing light yellow horse-face skirts are kneeling and sitting on the embroidered pier On the ground, beat her legs evenly.

The beautiful woman in her thirties has extremely well-maintained skin, with beautiful eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a jade-like nose, and delicate white fingers. It is impossible to tell that she is the mother of a 14-year-old daughter.

This person is the current headed mistress of You Xiangfu, and also the stepwife of You Xiang Jing Yuhuan——Su Aoyu.

The sound of slightly hasty footsteps gradually came from the outer corridor, followed by a middle-aged woman in blue satin and pinched placket. Seeing that the eldest lady was taking a nap, she waved her hand lightly to signal to the two of them. The little maid stepped back.

Without opening her eyes, Su Aoyu knew who was coming, she kept her original cheek posture unchanged, her eyes were half closed, and her voice was a little careless, "But is there any news from Lianqiu?"

This middle-aged woman is a servant brought by Su Aoyu's natal family as a dowry. The whole family has been servants for generations. Because of her loyalty, she has gained Su Aoyu's respect and trust. Now she is the steward of the inner courtyard of the big house. She is called "Aunt Xue" ".

After hearing the words, Aunt Xue took a few steps forward, handed the sealed Xuelang note in her hand to the small mahogany table next to the warm couch, and then said: "Ma'am, this is a secret letter that just arrived this morning, Mr. Slave looked at it, it was not the same as Lianqiu's delivery method in the past, after taking it off the carrier pigeon's feet, I didn't dare to delay, so I came directly."

Su Aoyu's eyelids moved, "The left and right are just reporting that Jing Se's temperament has changed, and it's very different from before. I'm tired of reading Lianqiu's letters these days." With a bit of disdain and mockery, "I heard that Madam Zheng almost smashed her to death with that vase. If she doesn't change her temper after doing this, then she will be a daughter of the right minister's mansion in vain."

Saying that, Su Aoyu slowly sat up.

Seeing this, Aunt Xue hurried over to support her, waited for her to sit upright, and quickly served tea.

Su Aoyu only casually glanced at the sealed snow wave note on the mahogany table, then looked away, took the tea offered by Aunt Xue with her pale fingers, brushed off the foam from the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Xue My aunt's tea making skills are getting better and better."

After receiving the compliment, Aunt Xue bowed her knees and thanked her, "Ma'am, this is a great compliment. This old slave has followed Da Furen for so many years, so I should know your preferences."

Su Aoyu gave a satisfied "hmm" and changed the subject for a moment, "The letter from Lianqiu said that Jingse's girl brought two strange men into the house, huh, it's very lively now. The one who got pregnant before she was married The Duke of Jin's wife was in the way, and it was her fate that she escaped, and I don't know who can stand up and speak for her this time."

Aunt Xue's old eyes flickered, "Madam, what do you mean...?"

Su Aoyu smiled, and gently smoothed the folds on the skirt, "It won't work if the master knows about it. He will find a way to calm things down because he is afraid of the Chu Palace. I know, there is no need to make too much noise, just achieve the effect of retiring the engagement."

Su Aoyu has been by Jing Yuhuan's side all these years, and she has a little understanding of the general wind direction of the court.

Her only daughter, Jing Wanbai, has already made a marriage contract with Prince Gu Gan.In the near future, Jing Wanbai will become the crown princess, and even the mother of the country in the future.

However, the Chu Palace is not a princeling. She also heard privately that the Prince Chu's son was not optimistic about the prince Gu Gan from the very beginning.

But there was such an absurd marriage contract between the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and the Prince Chu's Mansion. The two mistresses only exchanged tokens, not even a formal marriage certificate.

More than 20 years have passed, and this engagement, which not many people know about, could have been annulled just like that, but there is an irresistible factor in this absurdity—the Queen Mother.

With the empress dowager's involvement, the two families are like a marriage, and it is impossible to cancel it easily.

Su Aoyu had heard of Fanchen, the prince of Chu's son, who was extraordinary. Therefore, she was worried that after Jing Se married, she would use the Chu Palace's hand to deal with the crown prince and her daughter Jing Wanbai.

Now that she has foreseen what might happen in the future, she will never let the facts develop along this track.

As long as the marriage is divorced, Jing Se will not be able to marry into the Chu Palace, and the right minister will no longer have to stick to the authority of the Chu Palace, and will wholeheartedly assist the Crown Prince.

No matter for herself or Jing Wan Bai, this is the best result.

Aunt Xue is a smart person, as soon as Da Furen said it, she immediately realized it.

Su Aoyu casually picked up the Xuelang paper and took a glance at it.

After one glance, the pretty cheeks that were originally still charming gradually changed from the initial peach pink to dead gray.

Aunt Xue had never seen Da Furen lose her composure like this before, she was taken aback immediately, and whispered, "Da Furen... Da Furen... What's wrong with you?"

Su Aoyu's face became even paler, and the hand holding the Xuelang paper became tighter and tighter, and even trembled a little, crumpling the letter paper into a crumpled ball.

After a while, she finally said in shock: "It's Lianqiu, this lowly servant girl betrayed my wife."

Her eyes were bloodshot as if she wanted to eat people, Su Aoyu gritted her teeth angrily and slapped the table heavily. With a flick of her sleeve, the teacup on the desk fell to the ground and broke into several petals, and the splashed tea wet Aunt Xue's shoe.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, Su Aoyu called Aunt Xue to her side, and whispered in her ear: "Put aside the matter of the Prince Chu's mansion, and quickly take a few people who are needed to go to Zhuangzi. , must find a reasonable reason to kill that little bastard Lianqiu, my wife wants her to experience the consequences of betraying me!"

Aunt Xue quickly asked: "Ma'am, isn't this letter from Lianqiu?"

Su Aoyu stroked her bulging chest, and said bitterly: "It's Jingse, she said in the letter that the evil autumn wind invaded, and she talked nonsense in the middle of the night, telling about the second lady."

Aunt Xue was immediately frightened and turned pale, "This...doesn't this mean that the eldest lady also knows the truth about that matter?"

"It looks like there shouldn't be any." Su Aoyu said, "Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to write a letter to entrust me to find out the reason for the disappearance of the second sibling."

Aunt Xue thought for a while, and then said: "No matter what you say, the young lady knows that this matter has nothing to do with Lianqiu, and Lianqiu belongs to you, the old lady is worried that the young lady will one day Madam is suspicious. Do you want to use some tricks to even the eldest lady..."

Su Aoyu frowned, and hurriedly raised her hand to stop, "No. As long as the Chu Palace doesn't cancel the engagement for a day, this girl's life will be precious. It's easy to kill her, but I can't explain to the master and the Chu Palace, I'd better keep some more. In time, we will wait until Chu Palace formally resigns the engagement."

Aunt Xue pursed her lips, "But, ma'am, don't you worry that the eldest lady will tell the master about this when she comes back?"

"Oh." Su Aoyu snorted disdainfully, "She is just an unfavored concubine daughter who can't speak in front of the master. How much do you think the master will trust her after having children before marriage? I still look forward to her Go to the master to file a complaint, and then give her a reputation of being crazy and send her to the family temple to practice, and she will never come back for the rest of her life."

"Madam is wise." Aunt Xue praised sincerely, and was about to retreat after receiving her order.

A little maid who was pushed back by Aunt Xue before hurried in.

Aunt Xue's eyes sharpened, and she shouted: "You have been serving for so long, and you are still reckless, what do you think?"

The little girl knelt down heavily on the ground with a plop, raised her hands with both hands, and said: "Ma'am, the Duke of Jin's mansion sent a greeting card, saying that Mrs. Jin will come to the mansion as a guest in a while."
