Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 471, two women

"It's simply unsightly. I can't imagine that the eldest princess, who used to be so pure and pure, turned out to be like this in private. Thanks to the late emperor's careful cultivation and doting on her, I didn't expect her to wander here. A married woman hooked up with a married woman to become addicted, and she did such a thing in front of others. Is it worthy of the late emperor and the country of Daqing?"

Xu Shaoli stared angrily at Zhao Liumei and said angrily.

"My lord, the correspondence between them is so blatant. I wonder if the two of you met? Your lord, even though my father is guilty and deserves to die, she is the eldest princess. Who can resist the charm of the eldest princess. The eldest princess was the most venerable person in the Daqing Dynasty. She has outstanding demeanor and temperament. Who would have thought that she would do such an insulting thing and insult the reputation of the royal family!" He Jining said eagerly.

"Miss He's family has a high status, and she is the most elegant woman among the nobles in Shangjing. She didn't expect to say her father, as if she saw it with her own eyes. Is this a family tradition? Is it too arbitrary to say that it is a letter from your father to my mother based on a letter that I don't know is from a cat or a dog?" Xiao Qing looked at Zhao Jingniang and asked: "Ms. I sent a letter to Grand Master He, you only saw that they met, but have you replied to the letter?"

Zhao Jingniang panicked and said: "It is true that the eldest princess has not replied to the letter, but the eldest princess has met Grand Master He several times in private!"

"Oh?" Xiao Qing asked: "How many times? When were they? Six or seven years ago, I was almost always at the residence. Every time Grand Master He met with my mother, my mother would take me with her. Why haven't I seen any letters from them?"

Zhao Jingniang thought about the reason and guessed: "Little princess, how could the eldest princess take you with me for some things? You were still young at that time, even if the eldest princess met Grand Master He a few times, how would you remember?"

Xiao Qing quickly caught the loophole in her words, and said sharply: "Aunt Jing, that's not what you said just now. You clearly said that after my mother married my father, there was no contact for more than ten years. It was only in the last six or seven years that there was correspondence. That is, after I disappeared, I just said that my mother would bring me every time we met, but you didn't refute it. Aunt Jing, you have taken care of my mother for these years, don't you know when I disappeared?"

Zhao Jingniang panicked: "Princess Princess, how could I not know about your disappearance? In the past, the Eldest Princess did these things behind your back. After you disappeared, she became even more unscrupulous. You are too young to understand, but I followed the Eldest Princess and saw clearly!"

Where did Xiao Qing hear her talking nonsense: "My lord, after what happened just now, it can be seen that Zhao Jingniang is confused, and none of what she said is credible. She confuses truth and slanders my mother!"

Zhang Xian didn't listen to Xiao Qing's words, nor did he fully believe in this letter. After all, there was only He Jing's handwriting, and there was no eldest princess. He looked at the eldest princess again inquiringly.

Since Zhao Jingniang came to the hall just now, her face has not changed. Not only that, when she saw the letter and heard Xu Shaoli's insults and scolding, she remained motionless, neither angry nor fussy, and even made no distinctions. She sat quietly, as if she was hearing a matter that had nothing to do with her.

He asked: "Princess, do you have anything to refute the evidence of Zhao Jingniang and Miss He's family?"

Zhao Liumei smiled slightly: "What are you rebutting? It's not just the two of them saying that. There are so many mouths in Shangjing, do I want to seal them one by one?"

Zhang Xian: "..."

Zhao Liumei asked without any blame: "Zhao Jingniang, will your hands and feet still freeze to death in winter? I haven't seen you for a few years. I don't know if your shoulder blades are still hurting. I remember the first year Qingqing left. You ran to me and told me that you couldn't take care of me. You want to go home. Tell me about you. What's wrong with you is why you went to Grand Master He's house!"

Zhao Jingniang was buried under what she said.

He Jining on the side saw Zhao Jingniang bowing her head in remorse with a shamed expression, and she was worried that she would go back on her word.

"Zhao Jingniang, think about how the eldest princess treated you when you got this letter? Have you forgotten how she seduced my father?"

Her two words reminded Zhao Jingniang to raise her head suddenly, and she glared at He Jining viciously.

She said angrily: "I know! I know!"

"My lord, after we left her, the Eldest Princess couldn't bear the loneliness, so she took the initiative to go to Grand Master He and begged him to let Prince Xiao go. She went to the Grand Master's mansion and begged Grand Master to let King Xiao go, and everyone could see it!" Zhao Jingniang said excitedly, "The two of them did so many dirty things in the empty Pingning County Prince's Mansion. Grand Master He was worried that she would not be able to take care of her, so he asked two old women to take care of her. Many people knew about these things." Zhao Jingniang said angrily.

Xiao Qing no longer tolerated it, and saluted: "My lord, I have a request, I don't know if my lord agrees to it or not!"

Zhang Xian thought about it and said, "Tell me first!"

"My lord, I want to clear the venue. Except for your lords and my mother, everyone else leave here for now!" Xiao Qing said: "Because there are some witnesses, I don't want to be seen, they don't want to be known, please allow me and your lords!"

"My lord, what kind of witness is so mysterious, why can't we see it, there is clearly a ghost in it, my lord must not allow it!" He Jining immediately objected.

Seeing Xiao Qing's calm eyes and He Jining's unyielding expression, Zhang Xian pondered for a moment, then looked back at Xu Shaoli, who nodded slightly and agreed to clear the scene.

Seeing that several people agreed, He Jining knelt forward in a hurry: "My lord, if they are our enemies, how can we believe what they say? My lord, these people are always using tricks to frame us. Please allow my daughter to listen in the hall! You can let other people leave!"

Where did Xu Shaoli see He Jining like this: "Master Zhang, it's better to let He Jining stay. The witness of the little princess must let her know. If people say that this case is a bit dark, it will be difficult to handle the case if it gets out!"

Xiao Qing thought for a while and nodded: "Alright, if she wants to stay, she can stay!"

After a while, Zhang Xian called out the other servants, and Pin Zhu came in with two women.

"My lord!" The two women came up.

Xiao Qing said: "My lords, these two women have been guarding my mother for four or five years. No matter what life my mother has lived in these years, they both know. Whether my mother has met Grand Master He or not, they also know!"

He Jining had never met the two women, so he didn't know that his father had found these two people to take care of Zhao Liumei.

"My lord, Grand Master He has let us sisters keep watch over the eldest princess since he captured the people from the Pingning County Prince's Mansion six years ago. We followed Grand Master He's order to let the eldest princess live in the firewood house. We only give her one meal a day and let her do some rough work for slaves!" said a woman.
