Chapter 124 Unexpected

The Queen Mother was stunned when she heard this. Just for fighting for a man, she treated them and their daughter like this.

The Queen Mother had not expected this. She thought at least it must be the enemy who killed her mother or father. Only a deep hatred like this could lead to such a thing.

She didn't expect that it was all for a man, her grandfather.

The Queen Mother was both angry and amused, but just such an unexpected reason played her into the hands of others.

It’s still half a lifetime, which is quite sad to think about.

But Ling Xiao asked: "According to what you said, I suspect that my great grandmother's early death is also related to this old lady Ji?"

It's not his conspiracy theory. Madam Ji and Madam Ji Laoxian were close friends and liked the same man at the same time. Even after Madam Ji Laoxian gave birth to a child, she still didn't get married.

If she wants to marry Old Master Ji, then she can only do so after she kills Old Madam Ji, otherwise she will have to be an old maid for the rest of her life.

If she hadn't killed her, how would she have known that Madam Ji would die early.

She can't be a fortune teller, right?

Nanny Xia shook her head: "I don't know about this. Old Madam Ji never mentioned this."

Ling Xiao confirmed again: "Are you sure?"

Meeting Ling Xiao's murderous eyes, Nanny Xia swallowed her saliva and had to nod. She really didn't know about this matter and couldn't say anything nonsense.

Although there is no way to trace back what happened back then, it does not mean that there are no traces. One lie from her can lead to many secrets.

At that time, more people will be implicated. If the emperor wants to kill her, let him do it. Anyway, she is almost sixty years old and has lived enough.

Ling Xiao knew that he couldn't get anything out of him, so he waved his hand and said, "Go to the cold palace. It's quite desolate, dirty and dilapidated. Just clean it up."

Maybe someone else will move in, so get ready early.

"Yes, I obey the order."

Nanny Xia breathed a sigh of relief. Although this outcome was not what she had hoped for, at least she and her family were able to save their lives.

She wasn't killed because Ling Xiao still had some use for her. Plus, she had only been fanning the flames in the Empress Dowager's ears over the years and no one had died, otherwise he would definitely not have spared her.

Today the truth of the matter has been revealed. It is neither too late nor too early, so Ling Xiao is ready to leave.

When the Queen Mother saw that he was about to leave, she got up and sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Ling and smiled, "Xiao'er, your mother has lived her life like a joke, like a clown. In the future, your mother will not be like this again. Go back and apologize to Su on my behalf, and say that I was bewitched by a ghost, and this kind of thing will not happen again in the future.

As for the Ji family, my mother will no longer care about them. "

The Ji family now consists entirely of descendants born to Old Madam Ji. It would be merciful of her not to retaliate against them. If she were to drag them along, they would die.

He also needs to resolve the conflict with his son. His son is his only relative in this world.

Ling Xiao looked at the Queen Mother deeply: "Don't you care if your son investigates the Ji family and the Huang family?"

Logically speaking, they mother and son were enemies of the Ji family, so there was no such thing as relatives. Besides, Minister Huang of the Ministry of Revenue was suspected of corruption, and they had only given him some reminders in the past because of their in-law relationship, hoping that he would stop in time and not be caught again.

Now that this is the case, he will definitely investigate, and investigate it thoroughly.

He didn't want the Queen Mother to be bound by that damn family relationship.

The Queen Mother pursed her lips tightly and said, "Xiao'er, you can investigate whatever you want. If your mother says she won't care, then she won't. Whoever shakes the foundation of the Great Yan Kingdom will be uprooted." She took this opportunity to sever the family ties with the Ji family and to show her determination to her son that she really doesn't care about the Ji family anymore.

"Okay, then my son can rest assured."

Ling Xiao bowed to the Queen Mother again and said, "Then I will take my leave. Please go to bed early, Queen Mother."

"Well, Xiao'er, you should go back too. I didn't have a good Spring Festival this year. I wonder if it will have an impact on the future?"

"How could that be? This should be a good start. At least on the first day of the new year, the Queen Mother has removed the biggest hidden danger around her. This is a good thing."

The Queen Mother smiled bitterly: "It can only be said that it is a blessing in disguise. From now on, Queen Mother will not want to leave this Cining Palace. There is a small Buddhist temple in this palace. From now on, Queen Mother will eat more vegetarian food and chant more Buddhist scriptures to cultivate her temper."

Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Mother, you don't have to. You can live your life the same way as before."

The Queen Mother sighed, "Anyway, it was my mother who made a mistake today. I almost made a big mistake out of jealousy. Let's consider it as my atonement."

"As long as the Queen Mother likes it, I'll take my leave."

After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and left the Cining Palace.

It was getting late, and Sunan Nong must have fallen asleep. Ling Xiao did not stay for long and returned to his own Qianqing Palace.

Then he called An Yi and asked him to investigate Lord Huang and the Ji family, and to investigate these two families thoroughly, and then settle accounts with the two families when the court opens.

An Yi cried. Today was New Year's Day, and he was given such a big task.

He hummed and hawed as he hurried to arrange the tasks. After finishing the arrangements, he still couldn't sleep. He was thinking of some way to throw the matter of the Dark Guard Camp out. He was now in charge of the Royal Guards and also had to take care of the affairs of the Dark Guards. He was exhausted.

On the other side, Su Nanyi didn't sleep at all. This afternoon, the Queen Mother inexplicably sent Nanny Song to deliver a bunch of things to her. These things were all excellent. They were all moved into the space, and she was now looking through them in the space.

It's true, when she was outside, she was pregnant with a big belly and felt exhausted doing anything, but in this space, her body didn't feel so heavy, she just couldn't bend over to do anything.

"Xiaobai, you are such a caring little cotton-padded jacket."

Su Nanyi couldn't bend down and pick up the things on the ground, so Xiaobai picked up the things on the ground and gave them to her.

Xiaobai has been kept in the space, and in just a few months, it has grown a lot in size.

It is now as big as a big dog.

Xiaobai seemed to understand Su Nanyi's praise for it. It raised its head, breathed out, stuck out its tongue, and wagged its tail, just like a silly dog.

Su Nanyi found it funny and patted its head, letting it play on the side. Then she opened the box in her hand to see what was inside.

There was actually a fist-sized Dongzhu pearl in the box. The pearl was crystal clear and shone with a white glow. It was obviously a top-quality product.

After this thing is placed in the space for a period of time, it will become even more shiny and glossy without any impurities. If it is sold later, the price will increase many times.

Su Nanyi curled her lips. The empress dowager was really willing to give her such a treasure.

I don't know what's wrong with her. He poisoned her in the morning and sent a bunch of things to her in the afternoon. Is this a slap in the face and then a sweet treat?

Su Nanyi didn't think that the old witch had good intentions, so she checked the pile of things carefully. Who knows what kind of things she might have put in there that shouldn't be there.

She wouldn't be blinded by these things.
