www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!

The eldest princess Yongyang is the youngest sister of the late emperor and the direct aunt of the current emperor. On the day she returned to Beijing, she was bumped into by Crown Prince Xuanping. This incident was delivered to the emperor in the morning along with a letter of greeting. in hand.

The emperor was furious and handed the greeting note to Eunuch Liu, who read it again in the hall. Marquis Xuanping, who was standing underneath, looked pale and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, my son was attacked by bandits last night and was killed. Hanging it on the wall of the west city gate, I also ask the emperor to ask the governor of Jingzhao to investigate the matter thoroughly and give me justice!"

"Your Majesty, I have this report." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the murderer surrendered early this morning. However, the murderer also has difficulties. I sincerely ask the Emperor to abide by the law. Get a lighter sentence!"

"Oh?" The emperor was slightly startled and said, "Lu Qing's family, what do you say?"

The Crown Prince Xuanping Hou was attacked and hung on the city wall. The incident had just happened, but the murderer actually surrendered? This is really unexpected.

The officials exchanged glances and became somewhat interested. It seems that this good show is about to take place...

The governor of Jingzhao glanced at Marquis Xuanping, and then said: "Back to the emperor, the murderer's surname is Zhang Mingshu, who runs a silk and satin shop in the north of the city, and his younger brother was killed by Lu Heng, the eldest son of Marquis Xuanping a month ago..., Later he hanged himself!"

Xuanping Hou had some bad premonitions. Hearing this, his face turned pale. Only then did he realize what Jingzhao Prefecture Yin meant when he looked at him just now. He hurriedly scolded: "The words of these murderers cannot be trusted at all. !"

"Lord Marquis Lu." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin said with a fair expression, "I am just telling the truth."

"Marquis Xuanping!" The emperor said slightly unhappily. Although he didn't say anything, Marquis Xuanping did not dare to be presumptuous anymore. He just stared at Jingzhao Prefecture Yin with murderous eyes.

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin broke into a cold sweat. If he had a choice, he would not easily offend Xuanping Hou, the emperor's favorite. But it happened that Princess Yongyang personally encountered this matter. How could he make it a big deal and make it a trivial matter?

Although he was originally hit by Crown Prince Xuanping who was hanging on the city wall, she thought he must have been attacked by thieves. Princess Yongyang did not want to pursue the case, but ordered someone to put him down and Send it back to Xuanpinghou Mansion. However, just after the convoy of Princess Yongyang entered the city, a man cried and threw himself in front of the car, saying that he hung Prince Xuanping on the wall for his own sake. The younger brother takes revenge.

The eldest princess Yongyang still had a vivid memory of the scene that happened when she entered the wall. Upon seeing this, she ordered people to take the man to the Zhulun chariot. After questioning her carefully, she became furious and ordered her younger brother to Sun Fu Yunhe personally brought the man to Jingzhao Mansion to surrender. It was said to be a surrender, but no one knew that its real purpose was to severely punish Prince Xuanping, and the eldest princess Yongyang's greeting note was also handed over to the emperor's case before the morning session.

With the eldest Princess Yongyang watching, this matter makes Jingzhao Prefecture extremely troublesome. Although he was a little afraid of Marquis Xuanping, after thinking for a moment, he decided to report the truth to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, the murderer was angry at the tragic death of his brother. He saw Lu Lu near Xiuyun Tower last night. The crown prince followed him all the way, knocked Prince Lu unconscious in the dark, and hung him on the city wall. He wanted to teach Prince Lu a lesson. The murderer has truthfully confessed to this."

Lu Heng's preference for young men was not a secret among the officials and nobles in the capital, but no one would talk about such gossip in front of the emperor. Therefore, the emperor was confused and asked: "What does the suicide of the murderer's brother have to do with Lu Heng?"

The governor of Jingzhao was a little embarrassed. He didn't know how to speak. He hesitated and then said cryptically: "The murderer's younger brother is just over twelve years old and has a handsome appearance. Prince Lu, he likes men, so he likes men. The young man was forced to persecute... The young man was so ashamed and angry that he hanged himself."

"Absurd!"

The emperor was furious and slammed the armrest.

The emperor was furious, and blood flowed everywhere. For a moment, the court hall was filled with solemnity, and no one dared to speak.

Xuanpinghou fell to his knees with a plop, his forehead dripping with cold sweat.

But killing a merchant's son is actually not a big deal. Normally, it would just be giving him some money, so he wouldn't dare to say anything. However, no matter how small a matter is, once it is exposed in front of the emperor, it will no longer be a small matter.

Xuanpinghou could only hold on and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down! This is just a family comment. Although the child is naughty, he has never done such a bad thing. Furthermore, the child disappeared at home for no reason last night, but the thief said that he was at home. When I see a child near Xiuyun Tower, something must be fishy. Please take a closer look, Your Majesty." He burst into tears, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"What to check?!" The emperor stood up, walked back and forth twice, pointed at him angrily and shouted, "To check whether your son likes men, or whether your son has forced a young man to death?!"

"Your Majesty!" Marquis Xuanping also tried to explain, "My child..."

"Marquis Xuanping," the governor of Jingzhao interrupted him and asked righteously, "Since Prince Lu disappeared at home, why didn't you come to report the case yesterday?"

What can Marquis Xuanping say? It’s not just Jingzhao Prefect who doesn’t believe it, in fact, even he himself doesn’t believe it! When he learned that Lu Heng was missing last night, his first reaction was that Lu Heng had sneaked out and went to Xiuyun Tower... Not only him, but almost everyone in the house thought this way, and in the end it was just... I randomly searched for him once or twice in the house, thinking that he would come back at dawn, but I didn't expect that he would come back, but he would come back like that...

"Report to the Emperor." The Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture was afraid that the Emperor would not understand, so he explained respectfully, "The Xiuyun Tower is a famous small shop in the capital... It is said that Prince Lu is a frequent visitor. ." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin is willing to take the risk. Anyway, he has offended Marquis Xuanping, so it is better to forget about it.

"A dignified prince of the Hou family is actually a frequent visitor to a small butler's house?!" The emperor angrily said with a smile, "Okay! That's great!"

"Your Majesty!" Marquis Xuanping bowed deeply and said, "I am a master of discipline, but at this time, the child is the victim..."

"Victim." The emperor walked down from the throne and snorted coldly, "Lu Heng is the victim, so tell me, who does Zhang Shu's younger brother count?" He walked to Marquis Xuanping's side. , kicked him hard, leaving a clear footprint on his body, and heard the emperor say, "Don't just hang Lu Heng for one night, if all this is true, even if he cuts you Son, I also think this is what it should be!"

For a martial arts practitioner like Xuan Pinghou, the emperor's kick was actually not too heavy, but it was very difficult for Xuanping Hou to get up. He knew that the emperor was angry, so he didn't dare to argue anymore, thinking that it would be fine after the matter passed... However, reality did not give him a chance to wait. Chen Yushi, who is known as the iron-faced censor, took a step forward and bowed: "Your Majesty! I have failed to impeach Xuanpinghou's son, and Xuanpinghou's son has not been strict with himself. Please punish him severely!"

Xuanping Hou felt a secret resentment. If Chen Yushi had not spoken at this time, based on his understanding of the emperor, after a few days when the emperor's anger subsided, he would have made a few more modest achievements. This matter can be revealed, but now everything is over! The angry emperor would not give him a chance to make meritorious deeds on his behalf.

As soon as Chen Yushi came out, four or five more censors stood up one after another and said: "I second the proposal!"

The emperor has a dark face. Marquis Xuanping is his close minister, but now he has caused such a scandal, which has completely disgraced him.

"Check!" the emperor said decisively, "If the prince of Xuanpinghou really behaves like this, he will be severely punished according to the law! As for Xuanpinghou, he has no way to teach his son and allows his son to do whatever he wants in the capital. Order , demoted to uncle! One year's fine, Uncle Xuan Ping, until the matter is investigated clearly, you can discipline your son in the palace, and there is no need to go to court! As for the murderer Zhang Shu, if what he said is verified True, acquitted!"

The good marquis became an earl from then on, and he was still reduced from the title for this reason. Marquis Xuanping almost wanted to cry without tears, but seeing that the emperor was in a bad mood, he did not dare to argue, and bowed deeply and said: " I obey the decree."

"Retreat!"

The emperor was upset for a while and hastily announced his withdrawal from the court.

Uncle Xuan Ping walked out of the hall in the eyes of everyone who looked at him with disdain, rejoicing or disgust.

His son was uneducated and unskilled, and relying on his status as the crown prince of Xuanping Hou to run rampant in the capital was no longer something he could do in a day or two.

Originally, Lu Heng knew that although there were many people who knew that he was a good man, everyone just hid it, and no one would mention it in front of him, so he just kept it out of sight. But now, he is making trouble in the court. With this incident, the fig leaf was simply torn away, allowing everyone to openly discuss how naughty his son was!

"The traitor!"

Xuan Pingbo returned home quickly and rushed directly into Lu Heng's yard. Without saying a word, he took out his riding crop and swung it at him hard.

Lu Heng was losing his temper with Su Qingping. When he didn't pay attention, he was hit in the head with a whip. The pain made him immediately grin and scream. Mrs. Xuan Pingbo was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, and said unhappily: "Master Marquis, what are you doing?! Heng'er has suffered a lot today, you..."

"This is the traitor you taught me!" Uncle Xuan Ping said angrily, "Don't keep saying 'Marquis', I am already an uncle now! Uncle! Do you understand?! I The prince's position has been reduced by the emperor! The imperial edict will arrive soon... This is no longer the prince's mansion!"

"Ah!"

Mr.

"Ask the good son you taught!" Xuan Pingbo whipped him again.

Lu Heng wanted to hide but failed. He was hit by the whip again. The tip of the whip fell directly on his cheek, leaving a bright red whip mark, which was shocking.

"Hou... Master! Even if Heng'er did something wrong, please tell him properly." Mrs. Xuan Pingbo stepped forward and tried to pull him away, but saw Su Qingping standing there as if nothing had happened. On the side, he pointed at her nose and said angrily, "It's all your fault. Ever since Da Heng'er married you, nothing good has happened!"

Su Qingping did not dare to speak, but instead shrank inside again, pretending that she did not exist.

"Don't blame others. If you want to blame, blame your good son!" Uncle Xuan Ping raised his whip again and said angrily, "Son, tell me, did you force to death a man with the last name of the silk shop in the west of the city? Zhang’s boy?”

Lu Heng endured the pain. Although he had a bad temper, he was still very discerning. When he saw that his father was really angry this time, he did not dare to resist at all. But how could he remember the silk shop or something? He looked confused.

When Xuan Pingbo saw this, he became even more angry and said, "That's the boy who hanged himself!"

"Oh! It's him!" Lu Heng suddenly remembered it. He still remembered that the boy was very good-looking. After the spring night, he wanted to bring him back to the house. Unexpectedly, the first He hanged himself two days later, which was extremely unlucky.

Xuan Pingbo gritted his teeth and said: "It seems that it is true!"

"Dad, it's that kid who doesn't know what's good or bad, he..."

Bah!

The whip struck hard, and Lu Heng yelled "Ah--" and curled up in pain.

Mr.

"You still have the nerve to say that he is sick?" Xuan Pingbo pushed her away, and lashed the whip mercilessly again, one after another, and shouted angrily, "He is alive." What disease is he suffering from? Overindulgence! You have the nerve to say it, but I don’t want to listen! If you have the ability, go out and say that your son, who is only twenty, has overindulged because he raised a group of teenagers!"

"Dad! Dad, please spare me, Dad...ahhh!"

Lu Heng was beaten until he was wailing. He had already suffered internal injuries, and he was hung on the city wall all night. After going back and forth like this, he was knocked unconscious.

Mr.

Xuan Pingbo tightened his grip on the whip.

"Master, if we continue to fight, someone will die." Mrs. Xuan Pingbo cried and said, "Heng'er is your only son."

"If he wasn't my only son, I would have loved to beat him to death!" Uncle Xuan Ping was also afraid that he would really beat Lu Heng to death. After taking a deep breath, he said angrily, "What a loving mother but a loser! You keep an eye on him for me, and don’t allow him to take a step out of the house until the matter is settled. Otherwise, if he causes trouble for me, I will treat him as if I don’t have this son!... Anyway, even if I find someone else now , it’s too late to give birth to a son again!” After putting down his harsh words, Xuan Pingbo walked away.

Mrs. Xuan Pingbo was so stupefied by his last words that her breath caught in her chest. She couldn't get up or get down. Her feet swayed and her body fell down.

"Madam!"

The surrounding maids and women gathered around, caressing the chest and pinching people, not forgetting to ask Lu Heng's doctor, and the room suddenly became a mess.

Looking at all this, Su Qingping felt that she would only become more and more sad in the future...

……

"...Your Majesty."

The most famous restaurant in the capital is called Guiyun Pavilion. It has always been said that it is hard to get a seat here, and the private rooms on the second floor need to be booked half a month in advance. One of them, "Chaohua", is from No external reservations are allowed, even for the royal family and nobles. It will only be opened when distinguished guests from Guiyun Pavilion come. But now, in this "Chaohua", there are two teenagers having a drink by the window, talking and laughing, it's so comfortable.

A man in smart clothes entered Chaohua, saluted Xiao Yi who was sitting there, and said respectfully: "As the prince expected, Uncle Xuan Ping lost his temper after returning home. Na Luheng was whipped several times and was banned from the house." He told everything that happened in Xuan Pingbo's house in detail, even Xuan Pingbo's angry words were no exception. .

I heard that Xuan Pingbo said angrily that if Lu Heng caused any trouble again, he would give up this son and give birth to another one. Xiao Yi's dark eyes rolled around in circles, and he had an idea in his mind. Immediately, Xiao Yi waved his hand with a smile, telling the secret guard to retreat.

Until the door of "Chaohua" closed again, another young man said pitifully: "Brother, I did everything you asked...I only pity my grandmother, who is much older. And I was so frightened..." This young man is none other than Fu Yunhe, the grandson of Princess Yongyang.

Xiao Yi took a chopstick of vegetables indifferently, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice and said: "The eldest princess Yongyang accompanied the late emperor on his expeditions in the north and south. She was a hero among women of her generation. How could she be treated like this?" Little things are shocking. I said, Xiaohezi, what you are playing now are all leftovers from what your elder brother and I used to play."

Fu Yunhe shrugged, the smile on his baby face not diminishing. His grandmother was too tough, so there was nothing he could do about it. However, he really wanted to ask if he could stop calling him Xiaohezi. This title gave him chills every time.

Fu Yunhe came out of the capital three days ago to welcome Princess Yongyang. Unexpectedly, he suddenly received a letter from Xiao Yi when he was at the inn last night. How could he dare to resist this elder brother? Naturally, he completely relied on the letter. Follow the instructions. In fact, speaking of it, there was nothing he needed to do. Starting from early in the morning, the links followed each other without any flaws. Even he was just one of them, he just had to follow along.

But even if he did nothing, Xiao Yi was still hosting a banquet for him in Guiyun Pavilion. This made Fu Yunhe very flattered and thought to himself: What does the elder brother want to do?

In order not to bother Xiao Yi with his instructions, Fu Yunhe took the initiative to pour him a glass of wine and said flatteringly: "Brother, is there anything else I need to do?"

Xiao Yi took a sip, put down the glass, and said, "Keep an eye on the Jingzhao Prefecture officials and don't let them get involved."

"Brother, don't worry!" Fu Yunhe patted his chest and assured, "Since this matter has fallen into my grandmother's eyes, even if you don't speak, I will keep a close eye on him! However, brother..." Fu Yunhe asked curiously, "Do you have enmity with Marquis Xuanping, or do you have enmity with Lu Heng?"

Xiao Yi patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly: "Xiao Hezi, you also know that Lu Heng is called a **** outside! As your boss, how can I tolerate this? The scum is on par with you. That’s why I, the boss, decided to teach him a lesson and vow to give you justice!"

Fu Yunfu looked at him with his mouth wide open. What he said seemed to make sense, but something seemed not quite right...

But no matter what, the eldest brother is indeed the eldest brother, and he really thinks about these younger brothers! He decided to work hard for his eldest brother and get this matter done properly!

Xiao Yi enjoyed his meal. The dishes and drinks at Guiyun Pavilion were quite good. He decided to bring the stinky girl here next time.

All of this was done by Xiao Yi. Just as Fu Yunhe thought, one link within another. He had known that Princess Yongyang would return to the capital today, so he hung Lu Heng in the West City. Door, just to attract the attention of Princess Yongyang.

The man Zhang Shu who later claimed to be the "murderer" was also arranged by Xiao Yi, but the "murderer" was an arrangement, but the "motive" was real. Zhang Shu's brother was indeed forced by Lu Heng and finally hanged himself. . However, how could he, a small businessman, compete with the Xuanping Hou Mansion at its peak? Things were suppressed like this. Zhang Shu had been dependent on his brother since he was a child. Now that his brother died tragically, how could he be willing to accept it if he couldn't avenge it? When Xiao Yi sent someone to tell him this, he immediately agreed.

Finally, let’s go to Chen Yushi. Given the divine favor received by Marquis Xuanping, if no one had said this, his punishment would not have been as serious as being “demoted”!

This thing was done so beautifully, Xiao Yi felt that the stinky girl would be very satisfied! He was thinking about going to ask the stinky girl for a reward one day.

In fact, Nangong Yue learned that what happened to Xuan Ping Hou, oh, no, should be called Xuan Ping Bo now! After learning what happened to Uncle Xuan Ping's house, she couldn't help but froze. Until now, Nangong Yue could not put Xiao Yi together with the killing **** in his previous life. However, even if a lot has changed in this life, he is still the Xiao Yi who can single-handedly control the situation of Dayu Dynasty!

Thinking of what Xiao Yi had done for herself, Nangong Yue couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and the corners of her lips curved up slightly.

Really relieved!

Marquis Xuanping was demoted, and Lu Heng was beaten to death by his father. Once the matter is cleared up, at least his position as the heir apparent will not be guaranteed, and at worst, he will be imprisoned for ten or eight years... In contrast, killing him with one knife gave him a happy feeling!

"Third Miss." Seeing that Nangong Yue was in such a good mood for the first time in the past few days, Yimei also smiled and said, "I have finished copying the "Girls' Commandments" a hundred times." After saying that, she handed it over. He picked up a box, which was full of "The Commandments of Women".

Nangong Yue opened a few pages in a good mood. Seeing the "Female Commandments" that looked like ghostly drawings one after another, she burst out laughing and said: "Yimei, next time find someone who can read and write." My grandma is here to teach them. I think some of the maids in my yard should know how to do it."

"Yes, Miss Three."

As soon as Yi Mei agreed, she heard Nangong Yue say again: "In this way, next time I want to copy "Female Training" or "Female Commandment", it will be faster."

Yimei was speechless, thinking: Is the third girl addicted to copying? After thinking about it, she still said: "Third Miss, are these going to be given to the old lady?"

"Let's talk about it in a few days." Nangong Yue closed the box and said lazily, "I'm more comfortable now, I'll be free for a few more days."

In the past few days, Nangong Yue requested to be grounded on the grounds that she needed to copy the "Female Commandments". Although it was called a confinement, she lived a very leisurely life. She didn't have to go to bed to study at dawn or dusk. She could sleep until she woke up naturally every day. She moved a wicker chair in the yard in the afternoon and enjoyed the cool autumn breeze. Eating fruit snacks, reading medical books, and being accompanied by a yard of maids who were copying "Female Commandments", it was really comfortable. She didn't want to end this wonderful "confinement time" so soon.

"Yes." Yimei responded, took the box, put it away, and said, "Miss Third, I made mint cake in the small kitchen today. I'll get you a plate later."

Nangong Yue nodded, ground the paper, and started practicing calligraphy.

Boom!

At this time, the door was lightly knocked twice, and Nangong Yue said without looking back, "Come in."

Que'er opened the door and came in. He bowed and said, "Third Miss."

Nangong Yue finished writing the word on her hand and then asked: "What's the matter?"

Quie'er replied: "The wife of Mr. Zhang, the Minister of Punishment, came to visit the mansion and went to see the eldest lady."

"Oh?" Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling a little surprised. The Minister of Punishment, Mr. Zhang, was the elder brother of Concubine Zhang in the palace, and the direct uncle of Mingyue Princess Qu Jiayue. Although he held a high position, he was He has never had any contact with Nangong Mansion, so why did he come to visit suddenly.

Nangong Yue thought for a moment and shouted: "Lily."

Lily walked in and said with a smile: "Three girls."

Nangong Yue said calmly: "Go to Jinhuayuan and see what Mrs. Zhang said to the eldest aunt."

"Yes, Miss Three."

Lily was ordered to leave. She avoided the maids and women coming and going, and soon arrived at Jinhua Courtyard quietly.

She jumped up, climbed on the roof of the flower hall, opened a tile, and looked inside. She saw a round-cheeked woman sitting in the guest seat in the flower hall, smiling and talking to Mrs. Zhao is talking...

"Mrs. Nangong, I've taken the liberty to come here. I hope I won't disturb you."

Ms. Zhao quickly said: "Madam, what are you talking about? I can't even ask for you to come over."

Mrs. Zhang picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said, "I feel relieved when Madam said this." The smile on her face deepened, and she praised meaningfully, "I heard that Mr. Ling has outstanding talents and good character. Both are excellent. Madam, she is truly blessed to have this son in her lifetime."

Ms. Zhao was confused about Mrs. Zhang’s sudden visit at first, but now that she heard her mention Brother Sheng and remembered Mrs. Zhang’s identity, she suddenly felt blessed, and a thought flashed through her mind. idea.

Could it be...

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao said humbly: "No, no, you are too complimentary. No one can compare with Ling Yan."

The eldest son of Mrs. Zhang is a former Jinshi and has been admitted to the Hanlin Academy. As the saying goes, "If you are not a Jinshi, you will not enter the Hanlin, and if you are not an Hanlin, you will not enter the cabinet." With the support of the Zhang family, it can be said that he has a bright future in the future. There is no limit to it. From the current point of view, it is indeed much better than Nangong Sheng.

Mrs. Zhang covered her mouth and smiled softly: "Madam, you are too humble, Mr. Ling is very talented." After saying that, she changed the topic and said with a smile, "I wonder if Mr. Ling is engaged? ”

Zhao said in her heart, "Sure enough," and said with a smile on her face: "Of course not yet. Our old lady said it herself, Brother Sheng's daughter-in-law must be approved by her, but she didn't nod. Who dares to make a marriage contract for Brother Sheng easily?"

"The old lady has worked so hard for the eldest young master's marriage, which shows that she really cares for the eldest young master." Mrs. Zhang said a good word, "I want the young master to be both virtuous and talented, and to have outstanding appearance. I have a family here. I wonder if the old lady and the madam like it?"

Zhao's heart skipped a beat and she asked cautiously: "Mrs. Zhang, I wonder which lady you belong to?"

Mrs. Zhang smiled very enthusiastically and said cryptically: "I am afraid that only a girl from the royal family is worthy of a talent as good as yours..."

A girl who is a relative of the emperor? Zhao was even more happy.

"The girl's family has the title of marquis, her grandmother comes from the royal family, and she has an aunt who is the head of the first palace. The girl herself is as beautiful as a flower, deeply favored by the saints, and has a cheerful and straightforward personality... She is a perfect match for Mr. Ling. A pair of golden boys and girls." Mrs. Zhang said with a smile, "How about Mrs. Nangong, what do you think of this girl?"

"Such an outstanding girl is naturally excellent." Mrs. Zhao was already determined, but she still asked, "Mrs. Zhang, please forgive me for being presumptuous. I wonder which family this girl is from?"

Mrs. Zhang no longer beat around the bush and said bluntly: "She is the girl from Pingyang Hou's mansion."

After getting a positive reply, all Zhao's worries disappeared. Her heart was full of joy, but she still said implicitly: "The girl in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion is the royal capital. Pearl, both beautiful and beautiful, not only me, but also our old lady must be happy!"

Mrs. Zhang was also very satisfied. Her second aunt and grandma asked her to find out about this. Naturally, everyone was happy with the result.

The two people in the room were still chatting, but Lily, who was lying on the roof, had already yawned out of boredom. After another half an hour, Mrs. Zhao finally sent Mrs. Zhang away, and Lily finally succeeded. Returning to Mozhuyuan, she reported everything she heard to Nangong Yue.

Nangong Yue's eyes widened and she murmured in surprise: "No way..." After a moment, she seemed to find her voice again and said with a wry smile, "Oh, no wonder, the eldest aunt has changed. Fa’s desire to break off the engagement between eldest brother and Sister Liu turns out to be like this..."

Nangong Yue stroked her forehead with her hand. She couldn't help but remember that during the last outing in Cuiwei Mountain, Qu Jiayue was particularly warm to her eldest sister and herself. At that time, she was still confused and somewhat unclear about the situation, but Looking back now, it's a bit funny. But when did Qu Jiayue start to fall in love with her elder brother... Nangong Yue didn't believe that this was what Pingyang Hou meant. After all, compared to the Qu family in Pingyang Hou Mansion, the current Nangong family was too insignificant.

What to do...

Nangong Yue lowered her head and thought. The eldest brother and Sister Liu had a marriage contract for a long time. What Zhao did was really damaging to the reputation of the Nangong family. This matter must not be tolerated!

This is the only way!

It seems her happy "time of confinement" is coming to an end...

Nangong Yue stood up, straightened her clothes, and said seriously: "Yimei, come with me out."

Yimei responded and said: "Yes. Miss Three!"
