The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 65 Doubt
"Snapped!"

Chen Guang whipped the whip to the ground and yelled at the people who were still in the yard: "Don't you go back to your room? Are you waiting to eat the whip?"

Hearing this, Su Biwen, Zhang Wulang and others got up immediately and walked to their room.

Song Zhuoxing put the medicine bottle into Cui Hengyue's hands without any refusal, said in a low voice, "Be careful with Luo Sanniang", and called Runzhu back to the room.

Cui Hengyue froze on the spot holding the medicine bottle.

Why did he tell her to be careful with Luo Sanniang?

Yunlin said that Luo Sanniang is very similar to the man in black in Wenshu Pavilion, maybe Luo Sanniang is this man in black.

In any case, it was because the man in black lured Yunlin away that she was able to return to the side hall smoothly. If Luo Sanniang was this man in black, she should thank Luo Sanniang.

"Why, don't know where to go back?"

Yun Chen suddenly appeared beside Cui Hengyue, and kept looking at her hands.

Cui Hengyue immediately clenched the medicine bottle tightly, preventing Yun Chen from seeing the body of the bottle: "Of course I know."

She snorted coldly, turned around and walked towards the North Vault.

Yun Chen laughed silently, and then told the guards: "Clean up the yard."

He also said to Luo Sanniang and the others: "You guys continue to work, and go to the dining hall to eat meat after you finish your work."

Seeing Yun Chen looking over, Luo Sanniang hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to meet her gaze.

In the past in the South Palace, eating meat was something she couldn't even think about, but today because she didn't participate in the fight, she was able to eat meat, which is simply unbelievable.

When Cui Hengyue and Li Bier were fighting, she wanted to take advantage of the chaos to attack Cui Hengyue, because after she listened to Xie Yu's words and confessed to him, she was released safely, so she wanted to continue to repay her favor.

After thinking about it, I felt something was wrong, so I just waited and watched.

Sure enough, the person who participated in the fight was fined. Fortunately, she waited a little longer before she escaped.

Cui Hengyue returned to the North Catacombs.

Qionghua didn't see her for a few days, so she was worried, but she felt relieved when she saw that although she was injured, it was not serious.

"Yueyue, you went out that day and never came back. The guard told me that you went to stay in Guanyin Pavilion for a few days. What's going on?" Qionghua asked Cui Hengyue while applying medicine.

"Well, I just think Guanyin Pavilion is quite high, and I want to live there for a few days to feel it."

Cui Hengyue explained casually, and asked Qionghua: "Do you know that Cui Quan has two enemies, one surnamed Li and one surnamed Su?"

"Yueyue, how can you call Duke Jing by his first name? He is your grandfather." Qionghua looked at Cui Hengyue in surprise, feeling that she didn't recognize her.

In Qionghua's memory, although Cui Hengyue rarely sees his wife and her every year, under the guidance of his wife, Cui Hengyue is knowledgeable, courteous, humble and respectful, comparable to the ladies from aristocratic families outside.

But now Cui Hengyue calls his grandfather by his first name, and sometimes General Mu and others by his first name, which gives Qionghua the illusion that these people's status is far inferior to Cui Hengyue's, so Cui Hengyue calls them by their first names.

"I've never called him grandfather, it's not easy to say."

It was a very casual sentence, but in Qionghua's ears, she felt extremely sad.

She shouldn't have questioned Yueyue, Yueyue was right, it was the fault of the Cui family, it was the Cui family who were sorry for Yueyue
Seeing Qionghua's sad expression, as if lost in memory, Cui Hengyue reached out and poked Qionghua's arm: "You haven't answered my question yet."

"Oh..." Qionghua came back to her senses and forced back the tears in her eyes: "I haven't been in Cui's house with my wife for a long time, and I haven't heard that Lord Jingguo has any enemies.

"If it is a political enemy in the court, there are many, and your grandfather is one of them.

"As for whether there are Li and Su among these political enemies, I don't know."

Cui Hengyue's eyes moved, Cui Quan and Wang Dingkun are really political enemies, this is the same as what she heard in the dream, the king of Chu in the dream did not lie to her.
"Are you a servant of the Wang family?" Cui Hengyue asked suddenly.

Although Qionghua felt strange, she still nodded her head: "Yes."

"You have been with my mother since you were a child?"

"Yes."

"Some people say that the title of the most beautiful woman and the most talented woman in Jinyang was given to my mother by my aunt. Is this true?"

"Nonsense, Erniang has been smart since she was a child, and she got these names by virtue of her ability. Although Yuanniang was also smart since she was a child, she was hit hard when she almost fell off a cliff when she was ten years old. That kind of cleverness from before."

Qionghua was very angry when she said it, but Cui Hengyue understood the key point. All the changes began when Wang Yuanniang was ten years old.

Maybe the king of Chu in the dream was right. In order to repay her life-saving grace, Wang Yuanniang kept a low profile and gave up all the glory to her younger sister.

"I heard that the royal family wanted to marry the aristocratic family back then, and specified that they wanted to marry my aunt as queen. Is this true?" Cui Hengyue asked again.

Qionghua thought for a while: "Back then, the first emperor specified that the most outstanding daughter of the Wang family should be the queen, and the most outstanding daughter of the Wang family was Erniang, so naturally Erniang was made the empress.

"But then Erniang met Cui Sanlang, who is your father, and the two hit it off, so Erniang didn't want to marry the late emperor, but wanted to marry into Cui's family, so she had a fight with the governor and his wife for a while.

"The governor didn't agree, so Erniang forced her to die. In the end, the governor got angry and threatened to drive Erniang out of the house."

This matter is disgraceful, Qionghua doesn't want to say too much in front of Cui Hengyue, after all Wang Erniang is Cui Hengyue's mother, she wants to preserve the dignity of a mother.

Cui Hengyue: "After my aunt was kicked out of the Wang family, did my grandfather, grandmother and uncle really never see my aunt again? Didn't they send anyone to see my aunt?"

"Ah..." Qionghua hesitated and said with a complicated expression, "The governor strictly ordered the Wang family not to have any contact with Erniang, but Furen and Yuanniang often send people to visit Erniang in private and give them things.

"But later the governor found out, and the governor put his wife under house arrest in the mansion, and threatened that whoever had any relationship with Erniang would be kicked out of the Wang family.

"After this, the Wang family broke up with Erniang"

Cui Hengyue couldn't help asking: "What about my aunt? She also cut off contact with my aunt?"

"No."

When Wang Yuanniang was mentioned, Qionghua's eyes softened, and her expression was full of gratitude: "Those days were the most difficult for Erniang. She was abandoned by her natal family, and her husband's family also neglected her. Only the affection between Yuanniang and Cui Sanlang It made her feel warm.

"Although the governor put his wife under house arrest and said such harsh words, Yuan Niang later married into the palace and was not bound by the governor, so she would still send someone to Cui's house to visit Erniang.

"By virtue of Yuanniang's status as a noble concubine, and because she was valued by the first emperor, the Cui family dared not neglect Erniang."

Cui Hengyue rested her chin, and recalled what the King of Chu said in the dream, and found that what the King of Chu said almost matched what Qionghua said.

She stroked it carefully, and then asked: "Do my aunt and aunt know the king of Chu?"

"I met him in the palace before, but we have no relationship." Qionghua thought carefully before answering Cui Hengyue's question.

Finally, Cui Hengyue asked the biggest doubt in her heart: "Why did my mother leave Cui's house and enter the South Palace?"
