After hearing his father's words, Yu Shixu's face instantly turned pale.
While he was shocked, he was also somewhat grateful to have survived the disaster.
Fortunately, fortunately he knew in advance.
If, as his father said, he was found to have used witchcraft to harm others when he was unprepared, not only would his body be dismembered, but the Shangshu Mansion would also be angered.
Yu Shixu still felt frightened when he thought of his mother and young brothers and sisters at home.
I just don’t know how my father knew about such a secret thing.
Yu Xiheng didn't say anything about Juan Juan. Anyway, once the eldest son saw Juan Juan and heard Juan Juan's thoughts, he would understand.
Seeing that he had realized the seriousness of the matter, Yu Xiheng was also going back, so it was not convenient for him to stay here longer.
When Yu Shixu returned to the study, he had suppressed all his emotions, and he still looked like a handsome gentleman, elegant and profound.
At night, he woke up the boy sleeping in the wing room.
The boy beside him now is Sun Wen, the only one he brought over from Shangshu Mansion who he can trust.
Yu Shixu and Sun Wen searched inside and outside the yard for a long time, and finally found a piece of soil that looked like it had been renovated under a corner on the east side of the wall.
After digging through the soil, the two saw the witchcraft man buried underground.
Moreover, there is more than one!
Sun Wen was so frightened that he fell to the ground, his expression was pale, and his lips were trembling when he spoke.
"S-Son, this, this can't be..."
Yu Shixu was already prepared, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he dug out something.
He told Sun Wen with a calm face, "Go and get the volume of poems I put on the desk."
After Sun Wen left, Yu Shixu carefully read the birth dates written on them one by one, and the chill in his heart became deeper and deeper.
There are not only those of the emperor, but also those of the queen, prince, and other princes.
If he is found out, his crime will be more than just harboring witchcraft...
Could it be that the noble concubine of Xianfu Palace could not tolerate their family?
Sun Wen hurried over holding a volume of scrap manuscripts of poems.
Yu Shixu took out the fire paper and burned the edges of the rice paper filled with poems, making sure that every piece of paper had traces of being burned, but it would not affect people's ability to view the content on it.
After doing all this, he buried the paper in the soil.
Now, all I have to do is wait for the imperial concubine to bring the east wind.
Two days later, Xianfu Palace was quiet and quiet.
Ms. Lin has been on tenterhooks these days. Although her husband has told her that A Xu will handle it well, she is still uneasy.
If anything goes wrong, her Ah Xu will...
Yu Juanjuan sensed his mother's anxiety and tried his best to make Mrs. Lin happy these past two days.
On the third day, when Yu Xiheng went to court, a young eunuch suddenly came to the palace and said that the imperial concubine wanted to reminisce with Lin and meet Juan Juan, and asked Lin to take Juan Juan into the palace immediately.
Hearing this, Mrs. Lin knew that the imperial concubine was going to attack her Ah Xu.
She knew in her heart that the imperial concubine did not want to reminisce with her. She clearly wanted to see her son being framed and executed with her own eyes, making her heartbroken...
In front of the young eunuch of Xianfu Palace, Mrs. Lin accepted the order with a calm face, and then calmly got on the carriage to the palace.
When she went out, she saw the little eunuch's eyes were a little mocking. Lin glanced at him and looked away without changing his expression, as if he hadn't seen him before.
She has to trust her husband, trust that A Xu will handle it well, and... Juan Juan is with her, right?
Mrs. Lin hugged Juan Juan tightly, thinking that this was Juan Juan's first time entering the palace, and she told her a lot of things gently.
Outside the carriage, the little eunuch heard Lin's voice and curled his lips mockingly.
He is someone close to the imperial concubine, so he knows a thing or two about what happened today.
He didn't know the specific plan, but he knew that the imperial concubine would attack the Shangshu Mansion today.
Tsk, does Madam Shangshu think that the imperial concubine asked her to enter the palace just to recall the past?
How stupid.
In the carriage, Yu Juanjuan opened her eyes. She turned to look outside a curtain away from her and felt a strong sense of malice.
A little red light flashed across her curly white fingertips, and then she yawned tiredly.
[Oh, I can’t sleep, I can’t sleep. If I fall asleep, what will happen if a bad woman bullies my mother! 】
[Fish Guan Guan, you have to hold on! I can't let my mother worry. I'll have a good sleep for three days and three nights when I get back! 】
Lin heard Juanjuan's thoughts and couldn't help but think to herself.
Juan Bao, please sleep for three days and three nights so that your mother will be more worried.
The two horses pulling the carriage suddenly became restless for some reason, and the carriage jolted violently. Lin held Juan Juan in her arms, but she didn't feel any discomfort at all.
Until a scream came in and the coachman stopped the carriage.
Mrs. Lin opened the car curtain and looked outside. The little eunuch who was sitting outside was knocked down for some reason, and the wheels of the car ran over his legs.
The carriage was made of rosewood, which was not only hard but also heavy.
If you get run over, your legs will be broken.
Listening to the little eunuch's painful wails, Mrs. Lin couldn't feel any pity in her heart.
She knew that this little eunuch was the one who was following the imperial concubine to help others. He had done a lot of bad things, and now retribution was coming.
The drowsy Juan Juan opened his eyelids and took a look at the miserable condition of the little eunuch, then closed his eyes and found a comfortable position in his mother's arms to sleep.
Because of this incident, the carriage was delayed for a while, and by the time they arrived at the palace, it was already court time.
After entering the palace, it was necessary to walk, so the imperial concubine sent a little palace maid over. The little palace girl's nostrils were pointed in the sky, and she walked very fast, but Mrs. Lin held Juan Juan in her arms and took her time.
If the back of the little palace maid could not be seen, she would stand there holding Juan Juan. After a while, the little palace maid turned back to look for her.
This time the little palace maid looked even worse, but she walked slower.
After entering Xianfu Palace, the little palace maid took her to the pavilion and then went down.
The imperial concubine lay on the recliner, closed her eyes, and had someone dye her with khaodan.
Mrs. Lin hugged Juan Juan and bowed to her neatly, "My wife, Mrs. Lin, has met the imperial concubine."
The imperial concubine did not open her eyes, as if she had not heard.
Mrs. Lin knew that this was a show of force.
However, when she was learning etiquette from her nanny in the boudoir, she had stood still for half an hour in a salute manner, so this level of power was still within her tolerance.
Mrs. Lin could bear it, but Juanjuan didn't want to make her mother tired, and besides, her mother was holding a chubby girl in her arms!
Juan Juan puffed up his cheeks, looking fierce.
[Bad woman, pretend not to see your mother! Huh, look at the volume! 】
In the pavilion, a white cat jumped out of nowhere and jumped on the stone table and rushed towards Juan Juan.
The white cat jumped on the imperial concubine's face, kicked hard, and flew towards Juan Juan.
"Ah!!" The imperial concubine screamed. She had no time to care about the wet nails on her nails and hurriedly covered her face.
"Mirror! Bring me the mirror!"
The palace maid hurriedly came out holding the bronze mirror. The imperial concubine checked it carefully and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that her face was not hurt.
