Second Married Dandy: She went crazy to kill the eldest daughter

Chapter 69 A mountain is taller than a mountain
Dongfang Yuebai saw the confusion of the fifth prince and continued, "The words of the courtiers in the palace today made the emperor happy and angry. After all, compared with the princess of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the courtiers of Beiliang were too mean. If the Fifth Highness proposes Qin Zhangyuan now, it will not only ease the deadlock between Shengtang and Beiliang, but also sell the Princess of Shengtang a share of Beiliang's kindness and consideration, I think the emperor will be willing."

The fifth prince nodded, but he had forgotten this.

"I see, you go back first."

"Farewell to Your Highness the Fifth Prince."

Dongfang Yuebai watched the fifth prince's back silently, and waited until he completely disappeared before turning around and walking slowly towards the palace gate.

Zhixu, who was waiting at the palace gate, saw his master coming out and quickly jumped off the carriage and opened the door.

After Dongfang Yuebai got on the carriage, he said, "Wait a little longer."

Zhixu was stunned.

Dongfang Yuebai sat back on the soft couch and murmured again, "Soon someone will come to ask questions."

At the same time, Su Chengying had already entered the gate of the Duke's Mansion.

After coming back from the palace, I was supposed to go to the main courtyard to tell the old lady, but when Su Chengying walked in, she saw that Dongfang Ronglu had come back early and was sitting next to the old lady, crying.

The second lady Sun and the eldest lady Liu both lowered their heads, making it difficult to see the expressions on their faces. The old lady didn't look good either. She said a few words to Su Chengying and then let her leave first.

Su Chengying didn't know how Dongfang Ronglu made Concubine Xian cry because of the scheme, but she was not stupid enough not to open any pot at this time. She waited until she returned to Jiaziyuan and changed into a long dress at home before putting it into bed. Zhang's mother called over and asked carefully what happened.

Zhang's mother lowered her voice and said, "I heard that Miss Lu accidentally bumped into the fourth prince's concubine when she was in the palace..."

Su Chengying was stunned when she heard this.

She knew that the women living deep in the harem were not good, but she did not expect that the Concubine Xian would be so ruthless.

Dongfang Ronglu was attracted by the fourth prince, but the title had not yet been finalized. Dongfang Ronglu bumped into the fourth prince at this time. If this matter was spread, it would mean that he was domineering and ignorant of etiquette. title.

By then, not to mention the fourth prince who has every reason not to marry Dongfang Ronglu, even the other girls in the mansion, no one would dare to care!
"Now the girls in the mansion are hiding and crying secretly. Just before Her Royal Highness the Princess came back, the third lady and the fourth lady also went to the main courtyard. They were crying and didn't know what to do. Especially the fourth lady, she actually fainted. After death..." Zhang's mother sighed.

Su Chengying always felt that someone as experienced as the Fourth Madam would not be so fragile. She probably took the opportunity to apply eye drops to the Eldest Madam.

But thinking about it, Su Chengying still got up and went to the courtyard of the fourth room.

All the way to the courtyard of the fourth room, as soon as Su Chengying entered the door, she saw Dongfang Chunyue raised her eyebrows and said, "What are you doing here? You are not welcome here!"

It was the Fourth Lady Qian who was leaning on the bed. She quickly opened her eyes and said, "Why are you talking to Her Highness the Princess? I don't need your company here anymore. Go down."

Dongfang Chunyue, "..."

Who is your biological daughter?

Seeing Dongfang Chunyue leaving bitterly, the fourth lady Qian stood up and asked Su Chengying to sit down, "It's my fault that I brought the princess here so late at night."

Su Chengying looked at Fourth Madam Qian's spirit and smiled, "Four Madam is very scheming." Fourth Madam Qian also didn't hide it, "In recent years, the people in the second house have relied on the support of their big house, but they have always given me a lot of trouble." Son, now that I have finally caught the opportunity, I can’t miss it. Who in this house doesn’t know that my sister-in-law, her son and her daughter, have been carefully taught by various masters since they were young, and now they are both allowed to travel. If something like this happens, the more miserable I am, the more disturbed my sister-in-law will be, and the more she will hate my second wife."

Listening to these words, Su Chengying suddenly felt that she had not discovered the treasure of the Fourth Madam in the previous life, which was a great loss for her. As long as the Fourth Madam could gain a foothold in this mansion, she would be able to control all the big and small matters in the mansion from now on. It saves you a lot of worry.

"Your Highness, the fourth prince will not really cancel such a marriage, right?" Fourth lady Qian said tentatively, even if her daughter is not more valuable than the eldest lady's family, she is still her biological daughter.

Su Chengying gave a comforting smile, "Fourth Madam, just don't worry."

As for the girls in the mansion...

There is still a queen in the palace, so she will not let the virtuous concubine get what she wants.

Sure enough, as soon as Su Chengying returned to Jiaziyuan from the fourth-bedroom courtyard, she heard news from the palace that the emperor had decided to grant the marriage, and the imperial edict would be sent to the Duke's Mansion tomorrow.

Su Chengying didn't know what methods the Queen used, but she had to sigh that every mountain is higher than the other.

Therefore, the Queen is indeed on Dongfang Yuebai's side.

Although Su Chengying only needed to ask Dongfang Yuebai afterwards about the Queen's intentions, she had no time or opportunity at all. She could only kill two birds with one stone by testing.

Not only did he successfully facilitate the marriage between Dongfang Ronglu and the fourth prince, he also understood the empress's position.

Now, some people are really happy and some are worried.

Naturally, everyone in the Duke's Mansion was happy. After all, the reputation of the girl in the manor could not be maintained. Moreover, after Dongfang Ronglu entered the Fourth Prince's Mansion, her worth increased accordingly.

The ones who are worried are the second lady and Dongfang Ronglu. They have offended his wife and mother-in-law before they even entered the house. How will Dongfang Ronglu live in the fourth prince's house in the future?

The second wife's side is not much better either. Not only did her daughter have no hope for her, but she also offended the eldest lady Liu to death. How can her life be better in the future?

I heard that the second lady and Dongfang Ronglu left the main courtyard with tears streaming down their faces. When they returned to the courtyard of the second room, the second lady immediately fell ill.

Su Chengying was sitting in the room listening to the excitement when she saw Zhang's mother entering the door, "The old lady invites Her Royal Highness."

Su Chengying asked, "Do you know what's going on?"

Zhang’s mother smiled and said, “It’s a happy news to hear.”

Of course, Su Chengying didn't believe that the old lady would come to her for any happy events, but Zhang's mother looked as usual with a smile on her face. It didn't seem like she was trying to trick her, so she got up and went to the main courtyard.

When the old lady saw Su Chengying, she showed a rare smile, "Two pieces of news came out from the palace just now, one is about Miss Lu, and the other is about you..."

Su Chengying was wondering when the old lady said again, "The envoy from the Tang Dynasty to Beiliang has been decided. He is named Qin Zhangyuan. I heard that this person was the adopted son of the Su family. The emperor asked him to By coming here, you can give the Duke’s mansion a bit of help.”
