The Marquis Is Innocent

Leaving Yuyang, two hundred miles southwest of Zhuo County, there is a city named Yi.

Su Ehuang left Yuyang's car and walked all the way without haste or slow. On this day, they arrived at the city. Due to the lack of people and horses, they were unwell, and the group rested in the city for a few days.

She was the widow of Zuo Fengyigong Liu Li, the former brother of Emperor Xuan, who was born in a noble family in Zhongshan, and was also related to the Wei family. She had a noble status. Yicheng Ling learned that she stopped on the way back to Zhongshan because of physical discomfort, and greeted her with courtesy. treat.

In the evening of the next day, her nephew Su Xin caught up. The first sentence they met, Su Xin said: "I didn't wait for the news as promised, so I left the city quickly as my aunt had previously ordered. Presumably Jiang Li was defeated."

Su Xin's expression was very depressed.

Su Ehuang frowned, and there was a deep disappointment in his eyes, but soon, his expression returned to normal, and he said lightly: "If you lose, you will lose, why are you so depressed? There are many things in the world that don't go your way. I was ready to fail." Seeing her so indifferent, Su Xin swept away his depression, and said, "I did as my aunt ordered. Mrs. Xianghou was fed Bodishan by me in her sleep, and it was not yet dawn. I left quietly."

Thinking of the woman who will lose her life whether she succeeds or fails, he finally feels a little pity. He couldn't help but said again: "I saw that she was very flattering to my aunt, and I was cautious in dealing with her, and I didn't expect it to fall into the eyes of outsiders. Not to mention that things were successful, even if things failed now, I expect her to have nothing here. Why did my aunt want me to kill her?"

Su E Huang said: "How do you know that your relationship with her has never fallen into the public eye? How do you know that if things fail, she will not confess to me? How about killing a few people? Millions of corpses, blood splattered. I do whatever I want, kill a few people, how can it be impossible? You hide a man, how can you be so kind to a woman?"

Su Xin was ashamed by her lesson, and gritted his teeth: "What my aunt said is. My nephew is taught. I just hate Jiang's incompetence, and my aunt's efforts were wasted."

He suddenly seemed to think: "How does Aunt know that Jiang Li will keep her mouth shut for Aunt? What if she can't stand the forced confession and tell her Aunt?"

Su E Huang said: "The most difficult thing to control in the world is the human heart. The easiest to control is also the human heart. If you can recognize what a person really thinks and wants, you can control them, just like manipulating a puppet."

"This Jiang Li, not only will she not confess to me, but I think she should have made up her mind at this moment to repay my kindness to her."

Su Ehuang smiled and said.

Su Xin stared blankly at Su Ehuang, and asked for a while, "My aunt has always been very sincere, and my nephew is very respectful. But there is one thing that my nephew doesn't understand, and I hope my aunt can teach me. Although I failed this time, I regret not being able to solve it. It's a pity to get rid of the old woman of the Wei family. I just don't understand, since my aunt wants to win the heart of Marquis Yan, why didn't I use Jiang's hand to get rid of Qiao's daughter directly this time, instead it took a lot of time to get rid of the old woman?"

Su E Huang said: "Who is the daughter of Qiao? She is only an enemy of the Wei family. Zhonglin married her, but it is also the land of Yanzhou, so why be afraid? That old woman is different. She has a deep prejudice against me, and Zhonglin also He obeyed her words and never objected to her. Even if Zhong Lin had a heart for me, he would never dare to approach her when she was there for a day.

Su Xin had a look of admiration on his face and complimented: "My aunt is really not an ordinary woman, and my nephew is on the ground! In the future, I will swear to serve my aunt. I hope that one day I will be rich and rich, and I will revive the lintel of my Su family and comfort my ancestors!"

Su Ehuang smiled and said nothing.

Just now Su Xin asked her why she didn't get rid of Nv Qiao first. Apart from her answer, she didn't tell her nephew that the reason why she didn't want to touch Nv Qiao was actually a subtle, unwilling to admit defeat. woman's heart.

In Zhongshan, Su Ehuang met Qiao Nu for the first time.

At the first sight of Nv Qiao, Su Ehuang, who has always been conceited, had to admit that Wei Zhonglin's wife was not only younger than him, but her beauty even overwhelmed him.

As for what Qiao Nv has on her body, it is difficult for her to describe in words, but as long as she looks into her eyes, she can deeply feel the special temperament that is similar to the beauty in her bones. .

At that time, the seeds of jealousy were planted in Su Ehuang's heart. Not long ago, she came to Yuyang, and under the Luli Terrace, she looked up and saw Qiao Nu climb up the high platform and beat the drums under the eyes of thousands of soldiers.

At that time, the strong wind on the stage hit her jacket, and the crowd responded to her voice.

That scene was deeply engraved in Su Ehuang's mind, and it will never go away.

If it is said that the previous jealousy was just out of nature, then from that moment, she knew clearly what she wanted to do to this Qiao girl.

If Zhong Lin doesn't like her, she wants Nv Qiao to see that she not only favors her husband, but also takes away the status and honor that should belong to her.

If Zhong Lin likes her, she will take Zhong Lin away from her, so that she can also taste the great torture and pain of being devoured by loss and jealousy.

Since birth, Su Ehuang has been burdened with the Quaker fate theory of "indescribably expensive". She herself has never doubted this. In order to make the unspoken reality come true, she personally cut off the last trace of Girls' Generation's innocent feelings. From the first day of marriage, it has been exhausting and exhausting, and it can even be described as a fly. I don't know how much grievance I've suffered, and I don't know how much of my heart. However, in a dream of ten years, she found that her efforts were wasted, and everything returned to the original point, even, far from the original point.

She lost her youth and her dreams came to nothing, but the whole family placed their hopes on her alone.

What could be scarier than this for a woman?

But this Qiao girl, as an enemy of the family, easily has what she wants most now: youth, beauty, and the status of Zhong Lin's wife.

Su Ehuang always felt that in Wei Shao's heart, he was two years older than him, like the eldest sister, and the influence of his ignorant self that inspired him as a teenager was absolutely unique.

Wei Shao has always had old feelings for himself. Even at the age of seventeen, he bid farewell to the fifteen-year-old, and resolutely got married to Luoyang.

It's just that he has a forbearance character since he was a child, and is used to hiding his thoughts under his heart. And at least he suffered the huge double blow of losing his father and brother at least a year, and his character has become more profound and even uncertain, which is also natural.

This time, she took the opportunity of the Luli Conference to finally step into Yuyang, and after finding out his daily schedule for going to and from the government office, she created the encounter that day.

It was also that chance encounter that made her more certain of her own thoughts.

Although at the beginning, Wei Shao was a little frustrated that he had been in Yuyang for so many days, and he didn't even know that he was here.

But this frustration soon passed.

When she proposed to visit Madam Xu, Wei Shao initially refused.

But when she used the old days to lobby him again, she observed him and saw that he hesitated, then let go and agreed to her request.

This is what makes Su Ehuang feel excited and more certain, in Wei Shao's heart, he still has a place in his heart - maybe he just hasn't come out of the shadow caused by his other marriage to him. Otherwise, after so many years, before he got married, with his status, why didn't he even have a concubine by his side?

As long as she can get close to him, she can seize the man's weakness and attack him.

No one is better at doing such a thing than her.

This is also the reason why she wants to get rid of Mrs. Xu.

In her original design, if Mrs. Xu died as she wished, Jiang Ni then planned to bring the matter of Zhu's suppression of her mother-in-law to Wei Shao in the open. With Wei Shao's relationship with his grandmother, Zhu's family will no longer have the possibility of turning over. No matter how much she hated herself, she was nothing but a poor **** who completely lost the dignity of a mother in front of her son, and it was impossible for her to stop her.

By the way, he could also take revenge for the humiliation that Zhu Shi had done to him one after another that day.

But now, her careful plan has failed. Not only that, but it also damaged her ears, eyes and minions in the Wei family. It's a huge loss.

It would be impossible to get rid of Mrs. Xu by taking advantage of Wei's unpreparedness. Moreover, for the next period of time, she will probably have to temporarily avoid the limelight.

But she won't give up.

All she needs to do now is to adjust her mood, keep a low profile, and then make other plans.

She had looked at people in her girlhood, and she had looked away once.

In the past ten years, although the bamboo baskets have drawn water, it is not all fruitless.

At least, she has developed a more accurate eye for seeing people than before. She believes that Wei Zhonglin will definitely make great achievements in the future in this troubled world.

This time, she won't look away again.

…

Yuyang Ling took Leling Doctor and personally came to the Wei House to report the case of Mrs. Xianghou to Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xianghou died last night.

Doctor Leling said that when he was diagnosed and treated, he felt that Mrs. Xianghou’s symptoms looked like a stroke, but her nails were cyanotic and her lips were swollen, which was slightly different from a stroke, and her disease was far more severe than that of stroke, and Mrs. Xianghou was not too big. It was in line with the age of the usual stroke, so I took the residual liquid attached to the tongue coating by Mrs. Xianghou, and after smelling it, I felt that it should be poisoning. And the dose is not small, the accident occurs rapidly and there is no cure.

As for what kind of poison was in it, it was difficult to draw a conclusion for the time being.

Yuyang ordered the news that the servants of the Li family knew that the lady of Xianghou was a widow and was really romantic. Secretly had an affair with several servants in the family. He was tortured to extract a confession. But these male servants should have nothing to do with the death of Mrs. Xianghou.

Yuyang Ling was very ashamed because the progress of the case was fruitless. Mrs. Xu comforted a few times, and after sending off, she said to herself: "It seems that I am immortal, and I am blocking someone's way."

Zhong Ni glanced at her and said nothing.

"This Mrs. Xianghou, it is said that she lived in Luoyang for some time?" Mrs. Xu asked again.

Zhong Li should be.

"You send someone to Luoyang to carefully check her past contacts. The more detailed the investigation, the better."

Madam Xu pondered for a while, and finally gave an order.

…

Xiao Qiao thought that this incident would bring a great blow to Mrs. Xu. Just like what happened to Wei Yan last time, she couldn't get sick. Therefore, although the danger was temporarily eliminated, she was still very worried at first, lest her condition would worsen, she would stay by her side sooner or later.

But soon, Xiao Qiao found that the blow this incident brought to Mrs. Xu seemed to be far less severe than she thought.

After a few days, her spirit seemed to be almost as good as usual, and she often walked around the ground.

In a few days, Leling Doctor came for a follow-up consultation and said that the drug could be stopped, and the body would recover as long as he rested for a while.

Little Joe was very happy. My heart finally settled down. After that, she took care of Mrs. Xu, managed affairs, and socialized. She was busy, hugging the cat, basking in the sun, and thinking about her own thoughts. In a blink of an eye, the season entered November.

On this day, Xiao Qiao received a letter from Dong County.

The letter was written by Adi Qiaoci. Said that he had arrived home safely, and also transferred the handwriting of A-jie to his father. The uncle heard from the messenger that Yuyang's trip went smoothly, he was treated with kindness, and he was very happy. Everything is fine at home. It was my aunt who was sick and had been bedridden for half a month. And some other odds and ends, to name a few.

The date of signing the letter was written immediately after Qiao Ci left Yuyang and arrived in Dongjun. It’s just that it takes time to pass on the road, and it’s only now that it’s in my hands.

Xiao Qiao pondered for a long time after reading the letter. The thought that had been circling in her mind these days had grown stronger.

She finally made up her mind. After changing clothes, I went to the north house.

After Mrs. Xu's illness a few days ago, Xiao Qiao's status in the North House was almost the same as in the West House.

When the maid saw her coming, she was very respectful. Xiao Qiao went to Mrs. Xu's room. At the door, she heard Mrs. Xu talking to Zhong Li about the Zhu family.

After the incident, Zhu was sent back to her own east room. It's just that all the servants in the east room were sent away, and only a few servants from the north room were left. Both serve and take care of him.

Yushan Dawu and Zheng Shu have been captured by Yuyangling and thrown into prison. Because the matter is related to Mrs. Xu, there is no handling for the time being, and only wait for Yan Hou to come back and make a personal decision.

Mrs. Xu is asking about the situation of the Zhu family these days.

Zhong Li replied, "I went to see it in the morning. Madam didn't complain like she did at first. She was quiet for a while, and she looked a little sluggish." After a pause, she asked again, "Old Madam is waiting for the man to come back. Break again?"

Mrs. Xu said: "She is Shao'er's biological mother after all. How to deal with it, we should wait for Shao'er to come back. It's just a confused person, just watch the jail. Now it's cold, she's supplying supplies, you pay attention, and also Don't be short."

Zhong Nuo said, "The maid knows." Then she said, "The man should be back soon, right?"

A few days ago, I received news that Wei Shao reported to Madam Xu that she was safe. Said that the war went well and should be able to return before the end of the year.

The servant girl outside reported the arrival of the maid. Xiao Qiao was summoned by Mrs. Xu to sit beside her.

After some gossip, Xiao Qiao said, "Grandmother, I want to go back to Dongjun. I wonder if my grandmother will allow the trip?"
