Chapter 205: Part 1

Yes, if you say it, pull out the radish and bring the mud with it; if you don’t say it, Xu Lingyi will have to take the blame.

Eleven Niang's words made the queen deep in thought.

For a moment, she didn't know what to do.

Ask Xu Lingyi what his plans are

What if the emperor has something else in mind?

Give Xu Lingyi an idea

The emperor was listening behind the curtain. Now there are rumors that he has adopted a female village leader from Miao territory as a concubine. It has already involved temple matters, and it is not the harem women who can interfere.

After thinking about it, I can only blame the person who started it.

It's all Xiaowu's fault. You will suffer along with it.

No matter how bad the fifth master is, he is still the queen's brother. She can blame him, but she cannot show her dissatisfaction.

The queen’s words were serious. The eleventh mother said that the fifth master also made bad friends by mistake because of his young age. After this incident, he will act more and more calmly in the future. But this matter is getting more and more outrageous, and the marquis is a

People who talk little make me feel very frightened.

The queen smiled bitterly: You don't have to worry too much. She glanced at the curtain again and comforted Eleven Niang insincerely. Everyone knows what the Marquis is like.

Eleven Niang looked sad.

Seeing that the matter had been explained very clearly, the queen was afraid that if she continued to talk about it, some details would arise, so she asked about Mrs. Tai's health and found out that everything was fine, so she brought tea.

The eleventh mother hurriedly got up and left.

The emperor came out of the inner room.

Your Majesty, what can we do? The Queen looked at the Emperor in confusion. She didn't expect Xiao Wu to do such a thing.

The emperor thought for a while and said: If it is as Mrs. Yongpinghou said, I think it is better to leave it to Yongpinghou to handle it himself. After all, this is the Xu family's business, and it is not good for you or me to interfere.

The queen remained silent.

This makes sense.

People with foreign surnames are not allowed to interfere in clan affairs.

She let out a long sigh and suddenly felt that the Nuan Pavilion was too wide and a little cold.

The emperor, who was hiding in the inner room but could hear their conversation clearly, the queen who was cautious and seemed helpless, and the rumors about her being cruel, all made Eleven Niang feel very uneasy.

She returned to the lotus with a sense of return, and hurried to the Madam's place.

Xu Lingyi has been waiting for her there.

After the little maid served tea, the wife immediately sent the waiters in the room and said impatiently: Why did you come to the palace? What did you say?

Because of the child's affairs, Eleven Niang did not bother to drink tea, and told the Tai Furen and Xu Lingyi in detail about the situation at that time.

The more they listened, the more solemn their expressions became. By the end, the madam's face was pale.

Fourth child, we still need to ask the empress for word of mouth regarding this matter. Only when we know what the emperor means can we act accordingly

No need, Xu Lingyi's expression was a little cold, the emperor's meaning was already obvious.

But

A hint of exhaustion flashed across Xu Lingyi's brows. I know you are still thinking about the seventh prince who asked you for braised tendon when he came, but that was already the old emperor's calendar.

The madam turned her face away and said nothing.

A little maid reported through the curtain: Madam, the Second Madam is back.

The three of them were stunned.

The lady hurriedly said: Please come in quickly.

A woman wearing a moon-white brocade narrow-sleeved gown lifted the curtain and entered.

The second sister-in-law and the eleventh mother smiled and greeted the visitors.

The fourth brother and sister, the second lady, went to the eleventh mother-in-law and bowed to Mrs. Tai and Xu Lingyi.

Yizhen, why are you back? Madam Tai was really concerned, but what happened? Then she looked behind her. Didn't Sister Zhen come back with you?

I heard some rumors and hurried back. The second wife said that she was afraid that Sister Zhen would not be able to bear the bumps, so she stayed in Xishan.

The madam nodded and said: Come and sit on the kang, it's cold, be careful if you get cold.

The second lady was not polite and sat on the kang.

Eleven Niang went to make a cup of tea and came in.

The Second Madam had already spoken to the Tai Madam: I thought about it all night. I felt that this matter might have something to do with the Ou family. When Eleven Niang brought her tea, she thanked her and continued, "If something happens to our family,

, their family is the biggest beneficiary.

Just as the second sister-in-law said, Xu Lingyi told the second lady what happened. There were various rumors. Now even the palace heard that the eleventh mother had just returned from the palace. She also told the eleventh mother the scene of entering the palace.

Got the second lady.

The Ou family's hands and feet are really fast. The second lady mused, and she bought a child and brought it back to Fujian, and then brought it back when he was older. By then, several princes had grown up. The Ou family's behavior was not only vicious, but also they were not fighting day and night.

I'm afraid there are some arrangements that we don't know about. I would like to ask the Marquis to put more thought into it.

This means that the Ou family intends to compete for reserves.

Xu Lingyi gnawed slightly, his expression a little stern, I was careless this time, if someone from the Wang family hadn't been watching the Au family, I'm afraid we wouldn't have known about it.

This is also the Marquis's blessing. That's why the Ou family's conspiracy was exposed. The second lady said, it turns out that we are in the dark and the Ou family is in the dark. We can't help but suffer some losses. Now that we know the Ou family's intentions, the Marquis can take it easy.

Acted

Second sister-in-law, don't worry. I will consider this matter carefully. A look of determination flashed in Xu Lingyi's eyes. What we are fighting for is not just day and night, but the future is long.

In this case, I have an idea. Mr. Hou will listen to it. As he said that, he stared at Xu Lingyi, waiting for him to express his position.

Second sister-in-law, please speak. Xu Lingyi took the second wife seriously and looked attentive to listen.

The second lady glanced at Eleven Niang and said with a serious expression: Lord Marquis, why don't you recognize this child?

The madam looked at the second madam and then at the eleventh mother, but stopped talking.

Xu Lingyi said nothing, showing a thoughtful expression.

Eleven Niang looked at Xu Lingyi, looking like a husband and a wife.

For a while, you could hear needles dropping in the room.

Since everyone is arguing day and night, I think it is best not to escalate the situation as much as possible. The second lady looked firm, confident and calm, and said slowly and authentically: If we explain, others will suspect that we are confusing right and wrong; in our defense, we will first involve Hou.

Later, it involved the Fifth Master, Liu Huifang, the actor, and Sun Laohou, giving people nothing to talk about. I am afraid that there is nothing more exciting than the topic of the Marquis having an illegitimate child, and the rumors will come out. If we suppress it,

We have heard the rumors, and we are afraid that the emperor will think that the Xu family is too impressive for being able to turn their hands into clouds and rain. If we cannot suppress the rumors, I am afraid that the Ou family will act more arrogantly and do more things that are not good for our Xu family.

Things come up.

If we recognize this child, firstly, we can silence the mouths of the world. Secondly, we can test the emperor's will. If the emperor stands on our side, no matter how much the censor impeaches, it will not hurt his bones. If the emperor does not stand,

On our side, it is difficult to talk about this matter. She paused and gave Xu Lingyi a deep look. We can also prepare earlier. After all, the Ou family is in Fujian. There is also the Wang family that can be used. We cannot just sit back and wait for death and fall into the trap of human beings. I

for fish situation

Eleven Niang heard her heart pounding and looked towards Xu Lingyi.

But I saw that he had an expressionless face and his eyelids were lowered, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.

She looked towards the dowager again.

The madam pursed her lips tightly, and her face seemed a little paler than before.

There was a tense atmosphere in the room.

What the second sister-in-law said were all good words. After a moment of silence, Xu Lingyi raised her eyebrows and looked at the second lady, and asked me to think about it. Then she smiled and said, the second sister-in-law rushed back from Xishan, so she must not have had lunch yet. We have been waiting for November.

My mother has come back from the palace and hasn’t had lunch yet. Everyone must be hungry. Eleventh mother, let the maids prepare the food. She looks like she doesn’t want to talk more.

His gentle voice lightened the atmosphere in the room.

Eleven Niang bent her knees and went to ask the maids to prepare the meal. The second lady's smiling voice came from behind her: The Marquis was thoughtful. I am really hungry.

Back in the house, Eleven Niang silently helped Xu Lingyi change clothes.

What's wrong? She kept silent. Xu Lingyi touched her head.

Eleven Niang was a little confused and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Was she scared? Xu Lingyi stared at her with deep black eyes.

Eleven Niang nodded as if she was not afraid, but she was more worried and shook her head and said it was wrong to say she was not afraid. Her hands were shaking when she was eating just now and she nodded again.

Xu Lingyi laughed.

Hold her in your arms.

Don't be afraid. I know it well. But I felt that this comfort was very pale, and said: What the second sister-in-law said makes sense, but it is not entirely correct. If the emperor does not stand on our side, things will be very difficult. But like what the second sister-in-law said, and
To be continued...
