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

Chapter 98
The fighting at the second gate of the Duke's Mansion was so chaotic that people fell on their backs.

The people at the concierge were all dumbfounded. They never expected to see such a spectacular scene in their lifetime. They stared at it for a long time with their eyes wide open. Then they came to their senses and hurriedly ran towards the main courtyard. .

It was Su Chengying who was standing by the window in the house. She looked at the figure of the concierge passing by in a hurry. She adjusted her skirt and left her mother Zhang in the courtyard to take care of the house. Then she walked out alone and walked towards the main courtyard.

The second lady did such an evil thing and still wants to destroy her body and eliminate all traces of it?
Don't think too beautifully.

In the main courtyard, the second lady, Mrs. Sun, was leading the Taoist priest to persuade the old lady, when the concierge came to report that at the second gate, Mother Qiu next to her was fighting with people from the Jiaziyuan.

When the second lady Sun heard this, she immediately stopped and looked at the old lady and said, "This princess is so ignorant. How dare she indulge her servants in causing trouble in the palace? I know that I shouldn't have done this. I intervened, but I also thought about everyone in the house."

Older people are naturally superstitious, and the old lady is no exception.

Thinking about what the Taoist priest just said, the old lady looked at Song's mother and said, "Go to the second gate and pull away all the troublemakers, and then go to the Huguo Temple in person."

After hearing this, the second wife, Mrs. Sun, unconsciously raised a relieved smile on her lips.

Mother Song naturally understood that the old lady agreed to the second lady's suggestion and wanted to burn Tao Xiu's body on the spot. She nodded, turned and walked out the door.

But before she could go out, she saw Su Chengying walking in.

"Old slave, please pay your respects to Your Highness the Princess." Mother Song quickly blessed herself.

In the room, when the second lady heard that Su Chengying had arrived, the smile that appeared on her face instantly froze.

Su Chengying stepped in, stood in front of the old lady and spoke first, "Old lady."

Before the old lady could say anything, Su Zhenzhen who was standing aside hurriedly walked over, took Su Chengying's arm and said, "I heard that the people from Jiaziyuan were fighting with the Second Madam's people, even if I don't want to leave, my sister Tao Xiu, you should never allow your slave to act like this..."

Su Zhenzhen said, then glanced at the old lady worriedly, "And the second lady is right, it is not advisable to bring dirty things back into the house. It would be bad if it offends the old lady."

When it comes to pleasing people, Su Zhenzhen dares to be ranked second, but no one dares to be ranked first.

I really don't forget to show my presence at all times and please the people I want to please.

"When my sister was growing up in the house, she had a soft-eared ear and could listen to the wind and rain. I know that my sister has always been simple, but if this causes the old lady to be harmed by an adulterer, what should I do?" Su Chengying said thoughtfully. He patted Su Zhenzhen's hand and said.

Hearing the word traitor, the Taoist priest on the side changed his face slightly, "The poor Taoist is also doing justice for heaven. He saw that the Duke's mansion was in trouble, so he decided to come to help. Why would Her Majesty the Princess criticize someone like this when she comes up?"

"If there really are so many people who are doing justice for heaven in this world, how could such evil and evil things happen?" Su Chengying turned around slightly and looked at the Taoist priest in yellow robes, "I really thought he was dressed like a human or a dog. Can you just talk nonsense here?"

Swearing when you open your mouth?
It's simply too arrogant!The Taoist priest solemnly said, "Her Royal Highness is simply aggressive."

Su Chengying sneered, "Who do you think you are, worthy of my aggressiveness?"

If the Second Madam wants to use your hands to achieve something, she also depends on whether you have enough money.

"I know that by doing this, I stole the spotlight from Her Highness the Princess, but there are reasons for everything. I am also considering everyone in the house, and I hope that Her Highness the Princess can take the overall situation into consideration." The second lady, Sun, said sincerely.

Su Chengying knew that these words were clearly meant for the old lady. When the old lady frowned, she said, "If we go by what the second lady said, why do countries spend so much tax money every year on training soldiers and raising horses? They might as well go on expeditions." In the past, wouldn’t it be more time-saving and labor-intensive to find those ghosts who died in vain on the battlefield to come out and bite them?”

After saying this, Su Chengying turned to the old lady, paused and then said, "Tao Xiu and I are not familiar with each other, let alone reluctant to talk to each other. I just thought that Tao Xiu had been in the Duke's Mansion for many years, and even if he had no merit, he still had some merit. For the sake of hard work, I wanted to let her live her last life in peace, so that her hard work in running the Koshiyuan during her lifetime would not be in vain."

The second lady, Mrs. Sun, was so reviled that she felt like she was stuck in her throat. She held it in for a long time before she knelt down in front of the old lady and said, "Old madam, my daughter-in-law is really doing it for the good of the Duke's palace, so she is willing to pay money privately to hire someone to ward off the evil spirit. Your Highness the Princess doesn’t understand that your daughter-in-law doesn’t dare to complain, but Your Highness the Princess doesn’t have to be so forceful..."

The second lady, Mrs. Sun, was really afraid of being killed by the evil ghost transformed by Tao Xiu. She did not need to act at all, but she could make her cry in a subtle and slightly raised voice, which was heartbreaking and made the old lady frown.

The old lady thought about it for a moment and didn't think what Su Chengying said was unreasonable. However, when people get old, they instinctively cherish their lives. Although she knew that Su Chengying was only thinking about the reputation of the Duke's Palace, she looked at the second lady who seemed to have already lost her life. Seeing the appearance of the wronged soul, it was inevitable that I would feel a little tangled in my heart.

After a while, the old lady waved to Su Chengying, and when Su Chengying walked over, she took her hand and said, "I know you are concerned about the reputation of the Duke's Mansion, but the second family's worries are not wrong. Why not just leave it alone?" Tao Xiu's body should be burned in Huguo Temple. In the future, if we bury her in a tomb, it will be worthy of her care."

When the second lady, Mrs. Sun, heard this, she quietly showed a hint of pride as usual.

Su Chengying used her peripheral vision to catch all the little moves of the second lady, Sun, and was not upset. She knew that no matter what she said this time, she would not be able to sway the old lady's decision. After all, people have different opinions about ghosts and gods. Always afraid.So the ending in front of her was something she had expected.

But what the second lady Sun didn't know was that she was not here to persuade the old lady, but to delay time.

Counting the time, according to the speed at which Tianyi inquired about information, he should be back soon. Su Chengying was just thinking about what to say to gain some more time, when she saw the concierge appearing at the door.

"Old madam, suddenly many people came to the door, saying they came to see the Taoist priest in the mansion." The porter said and pointed to the Taoist priest in the flower hall.

The Taoist priest obviously felt guilty, but he still stood there.

It was just such a small gesture, but it could not escape the eyes of the old lady, "Mother Song, please accompany the Taoist priest to see what is going on."

"Yes, Madam." Mother Song nodded and made a 'please' gesture to the Taoist priest.
