Chapter 56
What the old lady said made Aunt Liang feel unable to answer, she is really a dumb person who eats Coptis chinensis and suffers unspeakably!

After waiting for a long time, Aunt Liang could only grit her teeth secretly: "I don't know about myself, but old lady, you must believe that I am innocent if I didn't kill anyone."

Xia Qingge sat aside, sneering in her heart, she asked the man in white to help her get Master Li to Liang Xinting's room last night, knocked Liang Xinting unconscious, and created such a crude murder case, she knew that this matter could not be concealed Old lady, but she didn't intend to hide it from her.

According to the character of the old lady, the more flawed things are, the more she can see most of the flaws, and it also gives her the opportunity to be suspicious and imagine. She must have thought that Liang Xinting must have something different from Master Li. It can be seen that people's deeds, so people took the opportunity to threaten.

In short, this time the old lady will definitely not trust Liang Xinting easily, and with her secretive words, the old lady naturally becomes more sure of her thoughts.

Everything was going according to Xia Qingge's plan, and from the beginning to the end, she didn't say much except to say something nice for Liang Xinting.And even if the old lady suspects the second room or her other aunts, she will definitely not suspect her, a little girl who has no backing.

Sure enough, after hearing Liang Xinting's incomprehensible words, the old lady was completely furious, and she slapped Liang Xinting hard on the face.

Angrily shouted: "Well, Liang Xinting, I have handed over the Duke's Mansion to you all these years, and this is how you do things for me? Last time, you almost ruined the reputation of my two girls, but now You have done something to shame the mansion again, how can I hand over the Duke's mansion to your hands?"

Aunt Liang was slapped by the old lady and fell to the ground. After hearing what the old lady said, she hurriedly got up and grabbed the skirt of the old lady: "Old lady, this concubine is really wronged. If you didn't kill Master Li, you must clearly investigate this matter."

Looking at her red and swollen eyes from crying and her messy long hair, the old lady's eyes were full of disgust.

"Okay, don't continue to cry here. You don't dare to kill people with your own hands. Since you can't tell who framed you, it must be the debt you incurred. Let this matter stop here. I don't want to Let me mention it again, but from now on, the affairs of the mansion will take up time and you won’t have to worry about it.”

She turned her face and pulled Xia Qingge's hand to Aunt Liang: "From now on, all matters in the mansion will be handled by the eldest lady, and you will just shut your doors and think about the past for a month."

Aunt Liang opened her mouth wide in shock, her face full of disbelief, and her brows concealed her indignation: "Madam, I'm afraid this is inappropriate?"

At this time, no one in the room was surprised, even Xia Qingge was very surprised by the old lady's decision.

Mrs. Xia chuckled lightly: "Why not?"

Aunt Liang hurriedly said: "I feel that the eldest lady is still young after all, I'm afraid that such a big mansion is left to her alone, and I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it."

Mrs. Xia pulled Xia Qingge affectionately and said: "Ge'er is only young enough to learn. Her mother left early. After she gets married, she will be the head of the house. She will naturally take care of the housework. If she doesn't learn now , won’t others see the jokes of our Duke’s Mansion by then?”

At this time, Xia Qingge raised his eyes to look at the expression of the old lady. The old lady's eyes were full of sarcasm and suppression when she stared at Aunt Liang. Xia Qingge seemed to have figured out the serious relationship between them.

I'm afraid it's true that the old lady intends to use herself as a cover to seize Aunt Liang's power.

These years, the old lady no longer interfered with the affairs of the mansion, but it did not mean that she did not understand the situation in the mansion. On the contrary, the old lady saw that Aunt Liang was covering the sky with her hands all these years, and she also played the role of connivance. .

The old lady has never interfered, mostly because only Aunt Liang has such ability in the mansion, the second aunt An is the second daughter of Marquis of Pingyuan, and Marquis of Pingyuan's mansion is followed by Concubine Xiao.

These in-law relationships in Hou Men's family are intricate, and the forces behind the relationship all represent their future life and death, honor and disgrace.

Therefore, the old lady is the daughter of the Feng family, and the current queen is also the daughter of the Feng family. It can be said that the Duke of Xiuguo's mansion has already been planned into the power of the queen's family. Based on this point, the old lady and An's naturally cannot coexist.

Moreover, the most important point is that the second uncle is not the old lady's own, but the former wife's son, so the old lady will naturally not give the second wife the opportunity to take power in the Duke's Mansion.

As for the third room, the third uncle Xia Zifeng abandoned literature and pursued martial arts, and is now serving as the deputy commander of the Dingbei military camp. He has already left the mansion and bought a house for himself.Only during the holidays or the old lady's birthday do I return home.

This can be regarded as forced by the situation. On Dafang's side, his father has never married the main wife in recent years, so it was Aunt Liang's turn to take charge of Zhongfu. This was also the old lady's helpless strategy.

What's more, even if an aunt has great power, she would never want to jump on the old lady's head.

Xia Qingge thought about this clearly and couldn't help admiring the old lady's scheming and means.

This time, Aunt Liang's behavior might have been tabooed by the old lady, so she naturally used this to suppress her, and also secretly warned Aunt Liang that as long as her old lady is in the Duke's mansion, Aunt Liang will never give up dominant.

However, this time, for her own benefit, the old lady pushed Xia Qingge to the forefront of the storm, and she was so cruel against a young girl who had no experience in the world, which shows how cold-hearted Mrs. Xia is.

A trace of coldness flashed in the depths of Xia Qingge's eyes, and he sat beside the old lady without interrupting. If it was really Xia Qingge from the past, if he was used by the old lady in this way today, he would definitely be thrown into a doomed place by Aunt Liang.

However, today's Xia Qingge will definitely not allow them to bully at will.

Butler, right?

That just let her take advantage of this opportunity to hold the real power in her own hands.

On Aunt Liang's side, after hearing the old lady's resolute words, even if she felt unwilling, she could not turn against the old lady face to face.

She snorted coldly in her heart, wanted Xia Qingge to applaud her?Then let's see if she has such a great ability!
Just wait, this time is just the best time for her to humiliate Xia Qingge, thinking of this, Aunt Liang stopped rebutting.

"Since the old lady has said so, the concubine has nothing to say. There is Miss Lao these days, and the concubine must reflect on it."

Seeing that Aunt Liang let go, Mrs. Xia's face softened a lot: "That's the best, just go down if you have nothing to do. Seeing you as a servant in the mansion, I thought something was wrong."

"Yes, the concubine is resigning."

Not long after Aunt Liang left, Xia Qingge and Xia Yuhan stayed by the old lady's side and talked for a while. Seeing that the old lady was a little sleepy, they also got up to leave.
