Chapter 232

Unexpectedly, before she went out, she saw Aunt Liu hurried over, and when she saw that Shangguan Mei was about to leave, she grabbed her hand and dragged her in. Shangguan Mei was getting annoyed, and shook off her hand and said: " What is Auntie doing, don't talk about it."

Aunt Liu was stunned when she heard this, and said coldly: "Aren't you here to seek justice? Let's go together, your uncle is also missing, and I have been looking for him for a long time, and I have searched all over the capital, but I can't find him. I'm afraid something went wrong."

When Shangguan Mei heard this, she was even more certain that this matter had something to do with Jinniang and Leng Huating, but what Jinniang said was clear, even if she knew it was them who did it, so what, he couldn't do anything to her, just sue her. It is useless to go to the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess is talking about evidence. Besides, Mother Du is just a servant. The Crown Princess will not come to Jinniang for a slave. She is still waiting for Jinniang. Go into the palace to help her regulate the palace people.

"Go on your own, I'm too lazy to look for it, we can't get this justice back." Shangguan Mei's voice slowed down a bit. Since what happened to Madam Du last time, she has treated Aunt Liu much better than before, but she still looks down on her. Because of her background, she refused to respect her.

Aunt Liu's eyes turned red, and she said to her: "You died as a servant, but what I lost was my brother. Mother is just such a brother. Although he is a little mixed up, he is his own flesh and blood. Now his life or death is uncertain. There is a thread Hope, there will always be a rescue."

Shangguan Mei was also a little moved when she heard this. Aunt Liu usually looks sharp and frivolous, but in fact she has a deep heart. She still cares about her son and relatives. Go make a fuss.

Turning around, Shangguan Mei and Aunt Liu entered the main hall together. The concubine was talking to Jinniang. When Aunt Liu saw that Leng Huating was there, she felt a little nervous. She had been beaten many times by him. Still a little afraid of his fire.

The princess saw that the two of them came hand in hand, and she understood in her heart. She looked at Aunt Liu quietly, but Aunt Liu respectfully saluted the concubine before she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, : "My younger sister also knows that I shouldn't bother my elder sister, but... After all, it is a family relationship. Now my eldest brother has disappeared suddenly. Sister, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face. Although my father does not recognize me and my brother, but... always The blood is connected, you can't just watch him die."

After hearing these words, Jinniang was inexplicable for a while, what did Aunt Liu mean...could it be that she and the concubine came from...the same mansion?
The concubine's hands trembled when she heard this, and the beads she was fiddled with almost fell to the ground. After a while, she raised her eyes and glared at Aunt Liu angrily, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? This concubine doesn't understand what kind of family relationship. You are your elder brother, what do you have to do with this concubine? If you say something nonsense again, this concubine will beat you out."

Aunt Liu couldn't help smiling sadly when she heard this, her eyes were dim with tears, and she said in a trembling voice: "Sister, why do you pretend you don't know, if it wasn't for his life, why would I bother to blame him, if you don't admit it, I don't even want to admit it, So much, our three mothers are not dead outside, I have never begged you for anything before, and of course I don’t want to beg any more now, but... are you really so hard-hearted?"

The concubine sneered, looked at Aunt Liu contemptuously and said, "Hardhearted? You seem to have forgotten what you have done. In front of the younger generation, don't let this concubine say something bad. Now you It's decent enough, don't take off that fig leaf, but make yourself look bad."

Aunt Liu's face turned pale, and there was a hint of embarrassment in her eyes, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, why bother to hold on to the past, it's been years, and now our sisters are also destined to... ...living together in the same mansion, you...just show mercy and let eldest brother go."

The princess was even angrier when she heard this, and she squinted at her and said, "Show mercy? Why did your bastard brother suffer such a disaster? You should know better than this concubine in your heart. Have you ever thought about kinship? Have you ever thought about showing mercy? Stop pretending to be so cowardly, this concubine looks disgusting."

Aunt Liu heard that her face turned from white to red, and then from red to white again, she bit her lip and bowed her head in silence for a while, then suddenly raised her head, looked at the princess with a sneer and said, "Don't be crazy, one day, you There will also be a day when you ask me, and now the prince is fascinated by you, and it is impossible for the prince to protect you forever, then, don't talk about sisterhood with me any more."

The princess was furious when she heard this. Aunt Liu was threatening herself with the position of the eldest son. Her meaning was obvious. The prince cannot live a hundred years. Leng Huatang will always succeed to the throne one day. I'm afraid that the status will be unstable, and Xiaoting and Jinniang who have no inheritance rights will also have a good life.

Just about to scold Aunt Liu, Jinniang, who had been silent all this time, stood up, walked to Aunt Liu and said, "Excuse me, Auntie, I am a wife and minister. If a concubine speaks nonsense in front of her wife and contradicts rudely, follow the family law." Come, what punishment do you want?"

Aunt Liu was stunned when she heard this, she was used to running amok in this mansion, the princess has always tolerated her three points, and she has never said anything superior or inferior to the princess, there are often things that are messed up, and the prince always looks at it. Turning a blind eye to Leng Huatang's face, and the fact that the old lady loved her a lot, this further fueled her arrogant temper, and everyone in the house has long been used to it. Now Jinniang When she suddenly mentioned etiquette and rules, she was still a little dazed for a moment, she didn't understand what she meant, she was in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time.

Shangguan Mei stood up with a sneer and said, "Sister and sister, no matter what, Aunt Liu is also an elder, and if the elder made a mistake, it is up to you, a junior, to say it. In my opinion, you may be the one who doesn't understand the rules."

Jinniang raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and said to Shangguan Mei: "Oh, sister-in-law, what did Jinniang do wrong just now? What did she say wrong?"

Shangguan Mei couldn't help but sneered and said, "You really are a nobleman who forgets things so much that you forget what you just said? You just said what kind of family punishment my aunt should receive for offending her mother and concubine. Could it be that I heard it wrong? "

Jinniang laughed, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth: "Sister-in-law, you said this, but Jinniang didn't say it. Jinniang was just asking my aunt sincerely. Jinniang has only been married into the palace for more than a month, so she naturally wants to figure it out and understand. If one day my husband also marry me a room with my aunt, and let my aunt bully me, I am still so ignorant that I don’t know how to deal with it. She, to put it nicely, people say that I am magnanimous, but if you say it badly, people will say that I am weak and can be bullied, which makes those vicious concubines who don't care about life and death even more rampant and bold."
