Splendid spring returns

85 Threat
"That's not true." Xin Nian replied with a smile: "It's just that when I came in just now, grandma said that I was late, how should I be punished? In fact, my punishment is nothing. The big deal is that I will drink a few more glasses at the next family dinner. But there is one thing. This is a major event that really cannot be tolerated, I have been thinking about it for the past two days, and finally made up my mind to report it to my ancestors, concubine and grandma."

Concubine Liao and Mrs. Liao raised their brows, but the old concubine remained expressionless, and asked with a smile: "Hearing your words, I'm a little solemn. What's the matter? I rarely go out for two years. Here, it’s just like a decoration, I rarely ask about anyone or anything in the mansion, it’s rare that you talk about it in front of me today, I don’t have to listen to it carefully.”

Concubine Toffee and Liao's complexions were a bit ugly.Xin Nian was confident in her heart, she was right in her judgment, her ancestors supported her in making things big.

So he murmured: "If you go back to your ancestors, it's about Liuzai and Yaya falling into the water this time..."

Before finishing speaking, Liao said in surprise: "The matter of Liu Zai and Yaya falling into the water? Didn't they fall into the water by mistake? What? Listening to my sister, could it be that someone deliberately murdered them? Sure enough, then It must be thoroughly investigated, and such a disaster must not be left in the mansion."

The meaning is very clear: unless you have evidence that the two children were murdered, don't try to use this as an excuse to eliminate dissidents.

Xin Nian glanced at Mrs. Liao, and said calmly: "Whether it was murdered by someone with a heart, I can't say for sure. I saw the kite, and it was really bright and beautiful. After asking around, no one in the house has seen it, so I can't think about it." How could such a good kite not be picked up when it fell into the water? If it were me, I would never be willing to throw it away. But this is all guesswork, and I can’t prove it anyway, but... Grandma, don’t worry, listen to me. "

With a wave of her hand, she stopped the Liao family who was about to speak, and said solemnly: "On the day Liu Zai Yaya fell into the water, Aunt Gu went to the lake to check and picked up two lake stones with moss growing on them, which were extremely slippery. Liu Zai and Yaya Yaya probably fell into the water because she stepped on a mossy lake rock. Afterwards, no one responded to her call for help, and if the spring rain hadn’t turned back in time, even if they climbed ashore, they would have froze to death.”

Speaking of this, she stared at Liao Shi with burning eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Speaking of Chun Yu, she was deceived, and the girl who deceived her has not been found until now, and the princess also said that she never went to the garden that day. "

The corners of Liao's mouth twitched twice, and he said angrily, "What do you think I am doing? Do you suspect that the girl was ordered by me? Hehe! In that case, I will let you search in my yard, including this mansion. I still want to find this What about girl, if you find it, everything will come to light, and it will save you from being suspicious of me and making me have nowhere to complain."

"Grandma's words are serious, how dare I doubt you? I just suddenly remembered that grandma is in charge of the personnel affairs in the mansion. This girl can come and go in and out of the palace at will. I don't know why? Don't be grandma who was blinded by her. .”

"I've never seen a girl like this before."

Liao gritted his teeth.Xin Nian nodded and said: "Yes, I can't find it anywhere, and I can't do anything about it. But this girl can't find it, and other people who are responsible are ready-made, so we must not let it go."

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Concubine Liao had a calm face, picked up a grape and put it in her mouth.I only heard Xin Nian said word by word in a deep voice: "The matter of Liu Zai and Yaya falling into the water was ultimately due to the negligence of the 24 sweeping servants in the garden. I mean, they should all be expelled from the mansion and let them go to Zhuangzi. The superiors act as manpower, so that the latecomers can be deterred from performing their duties and doing things with sincerity."

Concubine Liao was always calm, but at this moment she was shocked by Xin Nian's domineering aura, and almost lost the grapes in her hand.Over there, Mrs. Liao screamed before she could speak: "No, I don't agree. How could anyone be involved in such a big garden? It's a big crime if you can't hear the cries for help? Why would you be expelled from the mansion? Go to Zhuangzi? Sister Xin, you are too vicious, I disagree."

"Am I vicious?"

Xin Nian stood up suddenly, staring fixedly at Liao Shi with fiery eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Zai and Yaya almost lost their lives. I was already kind without killing anyone. Why did I become vicious instead? Comparing my heart to my heart Well, if the eldest young master, the fourth young master, and the eldest daughter also fell into the water today and no one rescued them, what would grandma do? Can you be magnanimous and allow those slaves to continue working in the garden?"

"I……"

Liao's words were at a loss: In all fairness, if this happened to her, she wouldn't give up until she killed the two veterans.The remaining people don't even think about going to Zhuangzi, they find someone to sell their teeth cheaply, and they don't care whether they live or die in the future.

But it happened to Xin Nian, so it's a different matter.Liao calmed down, snorted coldly and said, "Sister Xin, don't take it out on me, you're so good, why are you cursing my child? It's not right for you to implicate people like this. Our Prince Duan's Mansion has always been an honest and kind family. The wind is famous in the capital, if you do this, won't you ruin the reputation of the palace?"

Xin Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a sneer, "The reputation of the palace is ruined? What a big hat. Well, since grandma is so kind, I don't want to be too persistent. After all, this approach is too vicious in grandma's eyes. But I put The ugly thing is the first, the young masters and ladies in the mansion are not very old, the prince's mansion is so big, with rockery and pavilions, and the mist is vast, who knows when it will be like Liu Zai Yaya, what accident will happen? The eldest girl, the eldest young master, and the fourth young master will also have troubles in the future, grandma, you must remember what you said today, be forgiving, magnanimous, honest and kind. If you act viciously, I will not agree."

Liao's body trembled, she got up and said angrily, "Are you threatening me?"

"Then I don't dare." Xin Nian lowered his eyelids and said calmly, "I'm just a concubine, how dare I have such a conscienceless idea? I'm not like grandma, I am most afraid of retribution from the underworld. "

After finishing speaking, he looked at Liao, and said leisurely: "I just thought, children, they are all naughty, Liu Zai and Yaya will have such a thing, if it is not safe, someday other young masters and girls will repeat the same mistakes, and then, Grandma must remember our honest and benevolent family style of the Prince's Mansion."

Liao's complexion turned green and pale, and every word Xin Nian said was stern, which made her afraid involuntarily.

It's just... If you are subdued like this, what will the servants think of you?Will she still be able to respond to everyone in the mansion in the future?How many people are truly loyal to themselves?The rest have to become fence sitters.
