Chapter 86
Dong Yuan and Sheng Xiuyi went to the old lady's Rongde Pavilion first.

After sitting for a while, Mrs. Shizi still has housework to deal with, so she went back first.The old lady ordered the little maid to take Sheng Xiuyi to the study in the outer courtyard to see if the old Hou Ye, the eldest son, and the young master had returned.

When only Dong Yuan and the old lady's grandfather and grandson were left in the room, the old lady asked her straight to the point: "What's wrong with your hand?" in a very distressed tone, as if she was afraid that the Sheng family would treat her badly.

"Grandmother, I stabbed the emperor yesterday at Princess Wen Jing's mansion." Dong Yuan didn't beat around the bush and told the old lady directly.

The old lady suddenly raised her eyes and looked at her with a look of surprise.

Those bright eyes seemed to see through Dong Yuan.The old lady's lips turned pale, and she lowered her voice: "Sister Yuan, what are you talking about? Such nonsense is going to destroy the nine clans!"

That's right, such a big treason is going to destroy the Nine Races.

Dong Yuan untied the gauze on his palm, and showed the old lady a hideous wound rolling red flesh. Her voice was as soft as a feather eyelash, fearing that the wall would catch her ear: "I didn't leave any evidence. There are a few witnesses, but they compare I'm more afraid of things leaking."

The old lady listened to her words, her expression became more serious, and she asked her: "You went to the Princess's mansion yesterday to pay her birthday wishes, did he go too?"

Dong Yuan nodded, and told the old lady how Second Grandma Xia dragged her out of Lixiangxie yesterday, and how she planned: "...it was like this in Yonglian Temple, but now it's actually in the Princess Palace, if he If it goes on like this again and again, I will lose face with the Xue family and the Sheng family. I knew Second Mistress's plan, so I decided to tell him that it would be a death sentence. He said that since the day I left the cabinet, he has had nightmares every night. He was very anxious, and just wanted to see how I was doing. I told him about the current situation in the court, and I also reminded him why the Sheng and Xue clans were married in the first place, and told him that the Sheng family would soon be the in-laws of the Xiao family. If you want the country to be stable, you need to give up. When the power is implemented, there will be beautiful women and red sleeves."

After hearing this, the old lady nodded straightly: "Then why did the conflict arise?"

"He doesn't listen at all... He just asked me if I would like to claim my illness and live in Tianlong Temple for half a year. He will come to see me from time to time. As long as I am willing, he will personally arrange it so that the Sheng family will not suffer." Dong Yuan's voice There was hatred in my heart, "I said, 'Does Your Majesty want Xue to be Yang Concubine? If there is a disaster in the world, Your Majesty will ask Xue to hang himself in front of His Majesty, and then return the fault to Xue. To cover up His Majesty's incompetence in governing the country?'"

The old lady gasped.

Dong Yuan dared to say such words!

After a while, the old lady said: "You are really...you are not afraid that he will kill you when you say such rebellious words in front of him? Sister Yuan, how can you be so reckless? If you have something to do, bear to call Grandma, the white-haired person giving the black-haired person?"

The old lady couldn't help being afraid, her usually steady hands trembled a little, looking at Dong Yuan's sullen face, she thought of herself when she was young.A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers and dares to speak and act, but now that it is old, it is afraid of its hands and feet.Xue Dongyuan's personality is very similar to that of the old lady when she was young.

"Weren't you afraid at the time?" The old lady took her hand, looked at her, and couldn't help brushing her cheek, "You child..."

"I was very scared at the time." Dong Yuan's eyes were a little wet, "but after he heard it, he became furious, and I wasn't so scared. When he pressed me down, I stabbed the golden hairpin in my sleeve on his arm. The hairpin is sharp, and when I pulled it out, my hand was cut. I just want to escape, as long as no one sees me, and when he calms down, I have to save face. When I push him away, I run out I bolted the door. I didn't know that I met a boy with a servant at the corner outside. I was stopped by the boy, who then opened the door and chased after him, which also alarmed Princess Wen Jing. "

The old lady's eyes sank.

"...He wanted to guard against the queen mother, and it was too late to cover it up. Princess Wen Jing would not publicize the matter. I took back the golden hairpin and the bloody clothes, and they have been washed. It's just that the one with the The boy..." Dong Yuan looked at the old lady for help, "Grandmother, please tell grandpa about this."

The old lady held Dong Yuan's hand and said in a low voice: "Okay, sister Yuan, you've done a good job! Princess Wen Jing didn't let anything go wrong, and she didn't dare to say anything. Your grandfather will go to the palace to meet the Holy Majesty If you reveal this matter to the Holy One, even if he hates you, he would not have dared to do anything before."

Then he said, "He should wake up too."

Dong Yuan bowed his head, quite touched.If he doesn't wake up again, and keeps messing around like this, he will really be a dou who cannot be supported, and it is only a dream to be a wise king.

"The empress dowager only gave birth to the prince after seven years in the palace. At that time, the late emperor had already had six princesses. They were very happy to have the eldest son for the first time, and they loved him a lot. It's just that in his later years, the late emperor relied heavily on his powerful ministers, so he gave birth to the prince instead. Only by following the rules did he have some restraints. Later, when he practiced the Ninth Five-Year Plan, Taifu Xiao threatened him everywhere. Sister Yuan, except for Taifu Xiao, he has never encountered difficulties in his life. Yes. Even if you are an old man, he will get you to say that, he has this kind of character." The old lady sighed.

There was a chill on Dong Yuan's back, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Grandmother, isn't this fate? If I hadn't met at the gate of Rongde Pavilion that day, maybe my life today will be peaceful. Since it is fate, God will always have him." I don’t do anything wrong, I am filial and loyal, and I am lenient to others. God will always take pity on me, right? With this incident, Taifu Xiao will not come to me again before he is removed. There's some peace..."

Hearing Dong Yuan's words, the old lady couldn't bear it, but was relieved at the same time, she said to Dong Yuan with a moved face: "I think back then, when your grandmother married into Xue's family, your grandfather was only 16 years old, he had no title, his family was empty, and he had no brothers to support him. But now, our family is full of children and grandchildren, and your grandfather is also the elder of the three dynasties. Sister Yuan, if you can't tell the day today, you have to live a stable life in the Sheng family, don't be afraid."

Dong Yuan nodded.

After talking for a long time, Lord Hou and Sheng Xiuyi also returned to the inner courtyard.Dong Yuan and Sheng Xiuyi went to Jinlu Pavilion to pay respects to Fifth Master Xue Ziming and Fifth Madam.

The fifth master looked at Sheng Xiuyi, and casually asked him a few academic questions.

Sheng Xiuyi quoted scriptures and answered very beautifully, Xue Ziming's eyes lit up, but he didn't continue to neglect Sheng Xiuyi because of Dong Yuan, and called him Tianhe kindly.

"Dinning here, we two are talking. Tianhe, I wrote two articles the day before yesterday, so you can take a look later." Xue Ziming laughed.

Fifth Madam Yang frowned slightly.

Sheng Xiuyi hurriedly smiled and said: "My grandfather gave me the meal, and my son-in-law is very kind. It's just that I was in Rongde Pavilion just now, and my grandfather said to leave the meal."

Xue Ziming thought for a while and said, "Then you and sister Yuan will have dinner at my place tonight."

Dong Yuan was stunned, and quickly lowered his head to calm down.

This was the first time she heard her father call her sister Yuan.In the past, she came to greet Xue Ziming.Xue Ziming was always ignorant of answers, and was embarrassingly cold.

Sheng Xiuyi answered for Dong Yuan: "Thank you, grandfather..."

When Sheng Xiuyi and Dong Yuan came out of Jinlu Pavilion, Xue Ziming was still smiling happily: "Tianhe is proficient in learning, and has the talents of a national scholar!"

Fifth Madam Yang snorted coldly: "You all hold him in high esteem! He doesn't even have any fame!"

Xue Ziming's joy diminished a bit, and he said to the Fifth Madam Yang in displeasure: "What do you know? He is the son of the Marquis of Shengchang, and he will be appointed as a nobleman in the future. What will he do in the test of merit? The crown prince has not yet been decided, and his future is uncertain after the test of merit... ...What am I going to say to you woman?"

The fifth lady was so angry that she was speechless for a while.

After dinner, fifth master Xue Ziming went to the outer study, twelve girl Xue Donglin and younger brother Xue Huayi came to pay their respects.

The Fifth Madam was still unhappy, so Mama Yang came to her with the list and asked her: "I'm entertaining the Ninth Young Master tonight, Madam, please add some dishes, and the maidservant asked the kitchen to prepare it earlier."

The Fifth Madam snorted coldly and glanced at her, and said sharply: "What kind of serious uncle are you?"

Xue Donglin's eyes lit up, and she asked her mother, "Is the eldest son of the Sheng family coming?"

Fifth Madam glared at her.

Seeing that she was angry, Mother Yang hurriedly took the list and withdrew.Go outside to discuss with Bitao and Bi Liu what to add for the evening.It was the first time for the ninth son-in-law to eat here at Wufang, and he was a new son-in-law, so it was naturally more grand.Bi Tao and Bi Liu helped draw up the menu.

Bi Tao said to Yang's mother again: "You take it to the kitchen and say that Madam will add ten taels of silver to them, so that they can rest assured to do it well."

Yang's mother pointed to the menu, wondering: "I'm afraid 20 taels of silver won't be enough to make these things!"

Bi Tao was also in a dilemma: "It's only ten taels, I don't know how to talk to my wife. Mom, the fifth master seems to like the ninth uncle very much, but the wife is not happy. But it's always our fifth room's face, you might as well ask Fifth Lord, do you want to add a few more dishes, and see what Fifth Lord means by the way? Maybe the money will be there..."

Mother Yang spat at her: "Madam is in charge of this matter. I'll ask Fifth Master. Didn't I say that Madam is not virtuous in front of Fifth Master? Do I still want my old life?"

Bi Tao immediately apologized with a smile: "It's because I didn't think carefully..."

They were discussing in the side room, the twelve girl Xue Donglin happened to pass by, and when she heard the maid and Mama Yang chirping, and even mentioned "Ninth Young Master", she quickly stopped and listened.

Hearing that Mrs. Fifth was unwilling to pay for the banquet, Xue Donglin coughed outside the curtain.

Mother Yang, Bi Tao, and Bi Liu were taken aback.

Xue Donglin had already opened the curtain and entered, and said: "My father asked the eldest son of the Sheng family to eat, so the dishes must be delicate. Mom, come with me, and I will pay 30 taels of silver."

She didn't say a word "Ninth Brother-in-law" or "Ninth Son-in-Law".

Miss Twelfth had always disliked Miss Nine, so Mother Yang didn't think much of it, seeing that she was willing to pay, she thought she was going to make a face for Fifth Fang, so she hurriedly followed her with a smile.

Over there, the fifth lady Yang's name is Bitao.

Bi Liu and Bitao hurried in to serve.It's just that Bi Tao glanced at Miss Twelve's back and always felt that her generosity was a little weird.
