Mrs. Lin patted Liu Yue's hand gently, and Liu Yue smiled at her and shook her head.
Before Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Xu could speak, Mrs. Lan covered her mouth with a handkerchief, laughed twice, glanced at her younger brother and sister Wang, and said, "Brother and sister, let me tell you a joke."
Mrs. Wang understood it as soon as she saw it and said casually: "What's the joke? Sister-in-law, tell me."
"It is said that there was a high-ranking man. His wife wanted to give her natal niece to her brother-in-law as a side wife, but the brother-in-law's wife was not easy to mess with. Instead, she made a plan and successfully sent the niece to the eldest brother-in-law's bed. The eldest brother-in-law followed suit. After taking in my wife and niece, you said that my aunt and niece will serve the same husband together, oh my! If it were me, let alone being shameless, I would be killed even if I tried to find a piece of tofu!"
The Lan family's sister-in-law sang and harmonized, making it a lively scene.
Several ladies on the side also laughed out loud, this was obviously a matter of the Huainan Marquis Mansion.
Feng Miaomiao's house is in a mess, but she still has the nerve to accuse Sang and Huai of talking about other people's affairs?
Feng Miaomiao quit after hearing this.
He slapped the table, "Lan Xiangxiang, what do you mean?"
"Yo yo yo, I said Princess Concubine, what's wrong with me? What's bothering you when we chat here? I said that high-ranking master, ah! Do you know this high-ranking master? Come on, come on, then tell everyone Say it!"
Mrs. Lan is not afraid of Feng Miaomiao!
Although the Huainan Marquis Mansion sounds scary, it is not as good as the previous generation.
The eldest son of the Marquis of Huainan has no official position, so he only has the title of heir apparent, and he has not yet ascended to the title of marquis. Furthermore, even if he ascends to the title of marquis, he will not make any contribution to the court and cannot inherit the title of marquis.
When the time comes, when the Marquis of Huainan dies, all the trees in the house will fall and the hozens will scatter. She is so scared!
Feng Miaomiao was so angry that she broke her silver teeth.
She couldn't help it. She couldn't admit that Lan Xiangxiang was talking about her husband.
Feng Miaomiao stamped her feet vigorously, turned around and left bitterly.
Several ladies with stinky feet also left together.
"Thank you so much, niece-in-law."
Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Lin quickly thanked them.
The Lan family and the Wang family came forward to protect Liu Yue, but before they could say anything, the Lan family took action to deal with it.
Liu Yue held Lan with one hand and Wang with the other, and was very moved in her heart, "Xiangxiang, Cuizhi, I have made you worry."
Lan shook her head and said, "Auntie, you have been away from the capital for many years and you don't know the real details of these people. Although they are very beautiful on the surface, the house is also very dirty. If you don't pinch them even seven inches, their eyes will roll. Go to heaven."
"Little sister, don't worry about anything. Our Liu family girls don't take the initiative to cause trouble, but they will never be afraid of trouble. Your eldest brother and I can always protect you. Besides, An'an is the county head personally sealed by the Holy Emperor. You are the county head. Mother, you need to straighten your waist."
Mrs. Xu decided to tell Liu Rufeng when she went back to find out who instigated Feng Miaomiao!
What happened here was quickly received by the eldest princess.
"Hmph, the Marquis of Huainan is also confused. The eldest son is too muddy to hold up the wall. The second son managed to become a fifth-rank official on his own. Feng Miaomiao and his second wife have always been at odds, so they resorted to bad tricks and ended up lifting a rock. She killed her own feet and is still acting like a monster here, blaming Liu Ruyue, where does she get the face from!"
"Master, do you want to check on the Crown Princess Feng Miaomiao? It is true that the Rongguo Palace has been at loggerheads with the Huainan Marquis Palace for many years. The Crown Princess targeted Madam Liu when she first came up. Is there something hidden in this?"
The old woman whispered.
Upon hearing this, Princess Pingyang pondered for a while and nodded.
"Go and check. Duke Rongguo and the Marquis of Dingguo, including the Chu family, are all ministers of the emperor. I can't help the emperor much, but now that I know, I can't let the emperor The minister’s family has been wronged and he pretends not to know.”
Princess Pingyang patted the small coffee table in frustration.
"I only found out yesterday that Duke Cao Guo actually wanted to take refuge with the old witch. No wonder this old witch was so enthusiastic about helping me choose a consort in the past few years. I'm so angry!"
The old mama hurriedly persuaded Princess Pingyang.
Emperor Renzong didn't talk too much about the affairs of the court with his sister. He didn't want his only sister to get involved.
Yesterday, the two brothers and sister were chatting and accidentally mentioned that Queen Mother Li helped the eldest princess Pingyang choose her consort, so they told her.
The eldest princess Pingyang asked Emperor Renzong at that time: "Brother, please tell me which mansions are related to the old witch. I will avoid them in the future to save my brother from embarrassment."
Princess Pingyang knew that her brother didn't want her to get involved in this, for fear that she would be accidentally hurt, but she also wanted to protect her only brother.
Then he said: "Brother Emperor, I can't help you much, but I can't hinder my brother one day."
Emperor Renzong was very moved.
In this harem, except for his first wife, the emperor's uncle and the old prince, and his only sister, everyone else has their own little thoughts.
This harem has always restricted the previous dynasty. Which concubine did not enter the palace for the sake of the family?
His first wife, the queen, never left him even when he was in the most difficult time, and his mother's family even more strongly supported him.
After he ascended the throne, he gradually took control of the court affairs and established a prince. The queen's mother's family stayed away from the court.
There were people in the court who wanted to step on the Queen, but they could not find any reason to do so. No one could shake the Queen's position in Emperor Renzong's heart.
Emperor Renzong analyzed the situation in detail with Princess Pingyang.
That's why Princess Pingyang asked her personal maid to arrange for someone to check on Feng Miaomiao. She had to remind Duke Rong Guo.
When Liu Rufeng returned home in the evening, Mrs. Xu talked to her husband about today's flower viewing party.
Rongguo Gong Liu Rufeng frowned and said softly: "Feng Miaomiao? Yes, I will arrange for someone to check. Although we have different political opinions from the Huainan Marquis Mansion for many years, we will not let Huainan Marquis bear such a grudge. My younger sister and Feng Miaomiao have nothing to do with each other." Halfway through, why is she so targeted at my little sister?"
"I also feel strange. An An was not at the scene at the time, and we did not tell her about that girl's temper. We will wait until the matter is cleared up."
Mrs. Xu didn't want to tell Liu Anan, and Liu Yue meant the same thing, and she didn't want her daughter to worry about everything.
Justice Rong Guo was talking to Mrs. Xu, and Banxia said softly outside the door: "Madam, someone from the eldest princess's residence sent a letter to the Duke."
The couple looked at each other quickly.
Madam Xu asked Banxia to come in. After Banxia came in, she handed the letter to Madam and then left.
Mrs. Xu gave the letter to Duke Rongguo.
After Duke Rong opened the letter, he read it quickly and frowned again.
"Look."
After speaking, he handed the letter to Mrs. Xu.
The content of the letter is very simple, with only one sentence: Feng Miaomiao, his cousin's sister-in-law is the eldest daughter-in-law of the second wife of the Li family.
Mrs. Xu now understood everything.
No wonder Feng Miaomiao came to target Ruyue. It turned out that she came to the Rongguo Duke's mansion!
Moreover, the Feng family from Jiangnan has also moved forward. Without the nod from the head of the Feng family, why would Feng Miaomiao be so enthusiastic?
"The eldest princess is so fast. I didn't expect that the Feng family and the Li family in Jiangnan are also related. Who would have thought that there is an in-law relationship between them."
Mrs. Xu repackaged the letter.
"The Li family tree has deep roots and has been worked hard for decades. There is also a Queen Mother in the palace. It took the Holy Spirit ten years of effort to eradicate most of it. I will go to Rong Mansion. There is no need to wait for me to eat."
After saying that, Duke Rong took the letter and left the room.
