After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Chapter 475 Old Love
Mrs. Ma became even more angry when she heard this: "You bastard is rude! How do you raise your daughter at home? She is so ignorant of etiquette?! Is this a place where you can run wild?!"

"People who are constantly calling people sluts are not very well-educated! Is this really what your nanny taught you when you were a child? Don't embarrass her!" Haitang rolled his eyes at her, "We The children trained by the Hai family have always been filial, courteous, loyal, brave and patriotic, but they are not comparable to people like you who can't tolerate even your own parents. You are staring at me and scolding me. I know you are angry, but I don't know. You thought you were offended by what I said, and you were afraid that someone would ask you why you colluded with the Hu spies, so you just used the topic to take advantage of it and found an excuse to take it out on me!"

Mrs. Ma was choked. Although she was angry because of Haitang's attitude, the reason why she grabbed a little girl and scolded her was because she had the intention of diverting everyone's attention. Unexpectedly, this little girl was quite perceptive and immediately exposed her purpose. This is really troublesome!
Both Zhenguo Gong and Tu Rong stared at her, obviously also very interested in the questions Haitang raised in her previous "whisper".

Mrs. Saturday smiled and held Haitang's shoulders, and said softly: "Good boy, the question you asked is a good one. Let the adults handle the rest."

Haitang followed the current and returned to Zhou Yijun. She didn't mean to be in the limelight and quarrel with Mrs. Ma. She just wanted to expose Mrs. Ma's scandal as soon as possible so that the other party would no longer be able to hide it!
Duke Zhen Guo glanced at his wife, and his wife spoke knowingly: "Third aunt, third uncle treats you with great affection. You have lived a good life in the past few decades. In the Zhou family , There are not many female relatives who live as comfortably as you. What are you dissatisfied with? Even if you have grievances against the clan, there is no reason to blame the Zhou family, right? You know that the Zhou family has guarded the northwest for generations, and is closely related to the Hu people. It's a feud. I don't know how many Zhou family members have been killed by the Hu people, but they still collude with the Hu people secretly... What have you done? How many times have you betrayed the Zhou family? What are you trying to do? "

Mrs. Ma fell silent, staring at the ground in front of her without saying a word.

Mrs. Zhen Guogong said again: "Even if you refuse to tell us, we still know what you have done. The Duke of Guo has found someone to investigate the things you ordered your companions to do back then, and all the testimonies are in the hands of Tu Tong. Come on. If you don't want to confess, how about I have someone read the testimony to everyone?"

"No need." Mrs. Ma raised her head with a straight face, "Although they were once my people, they have served in your Zhou family for a long time and have long become your loyal servants. Of course, whatever you say, they Just admit it. Even if it is something I have never done, they will say that I have done it. I know you dislike me for wanting to steal Bianjun’s glass business, and for conspiring with the Marquis of Yingchuan. Even more so, I think I did these things but didn't make any consequences, and left my hands behind for others to talk about! You have long wished that I was dead. Once I die, no one will gossip about the Zhou family behind their backs. To feel at ease.”

Hearing that Mrs. Ma still wanted to shirk responsibility and throw dirty water on others, everyone present could not help but show contempt.

Zhou Ma said angrily: "Fart! If we wanted to kill you, do you think you can still live to this day?! Mr. We always remembers your kindness in raising you back then, no matter how many people persuade him to end it early!" If he had known that you would say this, he might as well not miss you!"

She looked at her husband, who was standing in the corner behind Lord Zhen Guo. Zhou Shigong looked at her and looked away silently.

He had long since regretted it. If he had known that there were so many secrets behind his stepmother, he should have let her "die" of the disease before spring. If she had died, how could the third house be in trouble today? ! He allowed her to be buried in a grand ceremony as the royal wife of the Zhou family, instead of having her true identity revealed, which was considered worthy of her upbringing. Zhou Ma felt even more aggrieved when she saw her husband's expression. She turned around and was about to scold Old Madam Ma again, but Ma Sufang and Ma Shangyi beat her to it: "Old Madam, you don't have to think about him. When it comes to the relationship between Old Madam and the Hu people, Old Nu knows. Some past events. The old lady's younger brother was raised by an old servant in the family. He once heard the old servant tell the old servant about the deeds of his parents and sisters. The old lady had an affair with her husband in Beijing. The barbarian prince who was taken as a hostage.

"The old lady broke her engagement with Prince Pingxi for him, but he quickly made a new love after you were sent away. The old lady was resentful, and besides taking revenge on her family, she also did not forget to expose his crime of spying on military intelligence. . His conspiracy was exposed, and he fled out of Beijing in a hurry, struggling to escape from his pursuers, and fled back to his country. Later, he became the king of the Hu people until news of his death from illness came out two years ago. "

Ma Shangyi paused: "The old slave thought that since the old lady resented her old lover and took revenge on him, she shouldn't have any good impressions of the Hu people after marrying into the Zhou family and getting along harmoniously with her husband. . The old slave is also very puzzled, why does the old lady associate with the Hu spies? Could it be that the old Khan knew that you fled to Chang'an incognito, and deliberately ordered someone to come to you? "

Mrs. Ma's back bent for the first time. Ma Shangyi has already said this, so even if she denies it, what's the point?

She had to nod and admit: "I don't know how his people found me... He sent someone to send a handwritten letter, and also attached the things I gave him back then... He said that if I don't want my husband to know Whatever I have done in the past, I have to help them honestly..."

She took a few deep breaths and gritted her teeth and said: "I just helped them with customs clearance a few times, and helped them sell goods a few times. I can't do more, and I don't dare to do it. I know this It's taboo, but if I don't agree, they will tell the old man my secret... How can I let them ruin my good life?"

She raised her sleeves and wiped her tears: "I really have never betrayed any military secrets... I have no place to inquire about these things. Not long after the old man married me, he retired from the front line and concentrated on logistics and armaments. The intelligence on the front line, He doesn't know, and I have no place to inquire. Even if I could inquire, I wouldn't do anything like that. I just don't want the Hu people to talk nonsense to the old man, but I don't want the Zhou family to lose the battle! Even if the army is defeated, I, as the wife of the Zhou family, don’t want to live a good life. I still know the seriousness of this matter!”

She cried sadly, and many people present somewhat believed her words. There is indeed no evidence to prove that she betrayed any important information to the border army. But if the Hu people really got hold of the wife of a senior general of the Zhou family, would they be satisfied with just letting her get a few customs clearance guides and sell goods?
The old barbarian Khan King was not such a soft-hearted character. Is it possible that he still has some sympathy for his old flame?

The Duke of Zhen could not help but speak: "What confidence do you have that the old Hu King will not force you to inquire about the Chu military aircraft? If he insists on forcing you, can you persist to the end? Instead of placing your hope on the Hu people, King Khan is soft-hearted, you might as well give it a try! If you are really just a clan daughter who was expelled by your parents because of an affair, and you have never betrayed Da Chu, you can confess everything to your third uncle, given his love for you. I won't blame you, and maybe we can use this matter to set up a trap to lure the Hu spies to take the bait and plot against the Hu army. Then we might be able to win earlier, and we wouldn't have to have a stalemate with the Hu people. Years. When your merits outweigh your faults, who will care about your minor mistakes from many years ago?
"Why don't you make it clear to your third uncle? Don't you believe him?!"
