Chapter 50
"Call in both of your maidservants."

The handmaidens of both of them came in.

Duan Yuzhi asked, "Your second wife said that she went to make tea for the master last night. You should know when she left the house, right?"

"Back to Grand Tutor, I don't know if the second lady is going to your lord's place, but she did go out in the evening, so I won't let the maid follow."

"Around when?"

"About... the end of the Xu Dynasty."

He asked the lady's maid again, "Your lady gave Hu Luan sweet soup last night, did you know that?"

"Maid... don't know..."

Duan Yuzhi saw that the servant girl lowered her head and glanced at the eldest lady from time to time. She should be her confidant. He patted the table, which startled the maidservant.

"to be frank!"

"Master Tai Tuo!" She knelt down in fright, "...Slaves...Slaves really don't know..."

It seems to be a loyal one.

"You don't have to cover up for me, just tell the truth."

Seeing that it was her own wife who spoke, the servant girl gave her a surprised look. Seeing that her eyes were full of compromise, she was a little reluctant to say, "Back to Taifu, our wife has indeed sent soup to your lord..."

"What time?"

She glanced at the eldest lady again, seeing that her face was ashen and hopeless, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Xu Shi..."

"Tell me clearly, what time is Xu Shi?"

"Just after Youshi..."

Hearing this, the second lady's expression changed instantly. She showed a hint of ferocity on her usually weak face, and said to the servant girl, "Don't talk nonsense, think about it carefully. I went there at the end of the Xu Dynasty, my sister must be Go after me!"

The servant girl was taken aback by her who was always docile, and looked at the eldest lady with some fear. Seeing that the eldest lady's face was calm, she didn't mean to blame her at all, and after hearing what the second lady said just now, she realized in her heart that her wife was In order to clear away the second wife's suspicion, she wanted to plead guilty, but she couldn't hold back and shed tears.

"lady!"

She grabbed the hem of the lady's skirt, "Madam! Why are you like this!"

The eldest lady finally couldn't bear it, helped her up and said, "You are sincere to me, but I did do this matter. Mrs. Duan has already found out, and I can't implicate the second lady. You have been with me since you were a child, so you should know about me." temper."

The maid sobbed and nodded.

After the two maidservants left, the room was suddenly terribly silent.

Sheng Yang sighed, "Madam, it's you."

The eldest lady let out a long sigh of relief, and knelt down, "The minister's wife said it a long time ago, and it is indeed the minister's wife who did it."

"Sister! Why are you?" The second lady also knelt down with her with a plop, pulled her and said excitedly, "My lord has not treated you so badly to me, you must be for me! It must be for me! Why do you want to Do this for me! You are not worth it, sister!"

The eldest lady was very calm, "Sister, you don't have to worry about it, I didn't do this for you, nor for me, but for the two of us, I've had enough of him... really, really enough of him ...I want to give myself a chance. If he is not discovered, he will die like this. I really want to go out with you and spend two days leisurely, instead of being stuck here all my life and being beaten for not being able to have a child. Cursing and insulting, making two reproductive tools... sister... I really want to be happy for a while..."

Thinking of this wish that might never come true again, two lines of tears finally slid down her face.

The truth came to light, Duan Yuzhi ordered the first lady to be taken care of, and the second lady was also taken care of. After the two of them settled down, the room was empty. Sheng Yang asked Duan Yuzhi:
"How does Mrs. Duan plan to deal with Mrs. Duan Yuzhi?" Duan Yuzhi frowned, feeling extremely tangled, "This matter is really hard to decide... This Hu Luan is an out-and-out beast, and death is not a pity. But Mrs. has violated the law." Tiansheng's law has poisoned people, and according to Dali Temple's practice, she must go to Pingyang for interrogation."

Duan Yuzhi's choice couldn't be more obvious, and she couldn't help being angry and said, "You are a man, so you don't understand her. She is a helpless woman, and her mother's family has no one to back her up. It is difficult to be alone. Once her husband treats her badly, and once she fails to give birth to her eldest son, she will spend her whole life in this prison-like deep courtyard, never having a bright future, and suffering from this kind of situation day after day Torture. Hu Luan died today before the imperial edict of the father. If the imperial edict arrives, Hu Luan will be demoted or exiled. Fu, to suffer with him when he suffers, this is simply too unfair to a woman!"

Duan Yuzhi took a deep look at her, and said, "I understand what your Highness said. But as the Taifu, I assist in the management of Dali Temple. If I don't insist on some things, no one in this dynasty will persist. As for what His Highness wants What you want to insist on, I think I can't control it."

The meaning in his eyes was as deep as a pool of water, Sheng Yang looked into it, and couldn't guess the deep meaning for a while.

After he left, Sheng Yang thought about it, always felt that there was something in his words, and was entangled in how he should choose. The tea in his hand was taken and put down, and the tea was cold and refilled. Did not remember to drink.

In the middle of the night, she still made up her mind and found the eldest lady's room. At this time, the second lady was also in her room. The two were confiding in each other's hearts, with snot and tears. When they saw Sheng Yang coming, they quickly knelt down again. .

Sheng Yang didn't want to talk nonsense, and said, "I allow you to take her away, hurry up, leave now!"

The First Madam and the Second Madam looked at each other in disbelief, "Your Highness! What are you going to do after we leave! Duan Daren..."

"You don't need to worry about these things, Mr. Duan's affairs are left to me. As for you, I have the right to make apology and commit suicide together with Hu Luan!"

The two of them made eye contact again, the excitement on their faces was palpable, and they bowed to Sheng Yang again and again.

"Let's go, don't worship! If you really thank me, set up a golden body and offer it to me!"

The second lady burst into tears when she heard this, and laughed, "Your Highness, I will definitely set up one for you!"

The eldest lady nodded again, and said with tears in her eyes, "Your Highness, your kindness and virtue will never be forgotten. I only hope that your highness can get what you want, and be with your lover and be cherished!"

Sheng Yang smiled at them helplessly, "I am the same as you. Since I grew up, all things are not up to my own will. As an imperial daughter, the only thing better than you is the little things like eating and drinking. The appearance comforts oneself, but the taste in it can only be experienced by being in it.”

The eldest lady nodded, "Your Highness is kind-hearted and has a clear distinction between likes and dislikes. Good people will be rewarded with good rewards."

"A good person is not counted. I only do what I think is right."

Sheng Yang looked at them firmly.
