famous eldest daughter

Chapter 888
While talking, I didn't realize it was late at night.

Because of the heavy wind and snow, Xiao Yu stayed in the palace. Early the next morning, as soon as he arrived at Gu Yuqing's place, he heard the news that the emperor had ordered that the three courts convene to rehear Concubine Mei's old case.

All the efforts finally came to fruition, and Gu Yuqing and Xiao Yu were naturally filled with joy.

After making breakfast for Gu Yuqing, Xiao Yu left the palace and went straight to Xiao Yan's place. Concubine Mei lived in Wangjiazhuang, a suburb of Beijing. He didn't need him to spread the news. Such a matter that boiled people's hearts would naturally be known to them by the afternoon at the latest. Xiao Yan needs to discuss the next step.

After all, the ultimate goal is to let Xiao Yan become his first prince in a legitimate way.

In this room, Xiao Yu and Ming Lu braved the raging wind and snow to move forward. In that room, in the Wangjiazhuang, inside a green door, a rather strong old woman carried a knee-length Bucket carefully walked through the snow in the yard to the door of the house.

Reaching out to push the door open, hot air hit my face.

"Come in quickly, you are not allowed to go in such heavy snow, but you insist on going. It doesn't matter if you don't eat a meal or a half. If something happens to you, what do you want me to do? You are an old man after all, so you insist on going." Trying to show off your strength." A hoarse voice sounded in the room, filled with anxiety.

As the words fell, the old grandma walked through the door, took off her coat, flicked off her head of white snow, rubbed her hands to warm herself, opened the door curtain and entered the back room.

"Miss, I'm going to fetch milk. I heard from people in the village that the emperor has issued an order for the three courts to interrogate the Mei family's case. It seems that they want to overturn the case." Looking at the look on the woman on the kang, the old woman's eyes flashed. He said with an irrepressible light.

The woman was holding a Tang Pozi in her hand to warm her hands. She was caught off guard when she heard what her grandma said. She was so surprised that her hand slipped and the Tang Pozi rolled down her legs and fell to the ground with a "dang" sound.

In the quiet room, the sound was really loud.

The old mama's heart shrank, and she bent down to pick it up. Fortunately, the lid did not fall open, so there was no need to add more charcoal. She just wiped the ashes on it with her sleeves and stuffed it into the lady's hand again.

The woman hadn't recovered from the shock, took the stove, and looked at the nanny in disbelief, "What did you say?"

The mother leaned half of her body on the edge of the kang, and repeated what she said just now, "...Miss, the soul of the master and madam can finally rest in peace."

"Have a rest?" The woman sneered, her voice was like a cold cave, so cold it made people shiver.

"Dozens of members of the Mei family were killed overnight without any explanation. This injustice can't be rested in peace." The woman gritted her teeth with hatred when she mentioned this past incident.

Under the excitement, his voice couldn't help but rise up. It was originally hoarse and dark, but it became even more sad and blood-red.

From her pretty eyes, nose and mouth, you can still tell how beautiful she is, except for the scar that runs through her cheek, like a living centipede, ferocious and twisted, but not scary, but makes people feel sad to see it.

I feel sorry for her that her face is ruined like a flower.

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman's hand holding Mrs. Tang loosened and she clenched it tightly into a fist. "What did they say outside? Why did such words suddenly come out?"

After all... still care...

Mammy looked at the woman with distress in her eyes, "Miss, do you still remember Weiyuan Hou Mansion?"

The woman nodded, "Concubine Li's mother's family is a merchant, and they are rich in real money, but his family?"

Mammy nodded, "This Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is really not a thing. On the surface, it does serious business, but secretly, it makes a fortune through human trafficking, amassing gold and silver."

"Human trafficking?"

"Yes, the people of this dynasty were sold overseas to be slaves, maids, prostitutes, and prostitutes. They relied on this to make a lot of money. His ancestors were doing this business. In the generation of Weiyuan Marquis, because of the convenience of official titles , and he did it with ease, but unfortunately, God has eyes, and his business was finally discovered. Now all over the capital, big-character posters have been posted to announce the matter to the public. The people in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion are parading through the streets. .”

"I listened to my neighbor. It seems that the emperor intended to not impose the death penalty directly, but let everyone in the Weiyuan Hou family be beaten to death by the angry people in the streets."

Listening to Mammy's words, the look of shock on the woman's face gradually faded away. When Mammy finished speaking, the woman was silent for a moment and suddenly sneered, "The emperor wants three courts to examine the Mei family's case. He is afraid that he will take it. The purpose is to make Weiyuan Hou Mansion take the blame!"

Mammy was startled, then understood what she meant, "Miss, why do you think about this? No matter what, as long as you can clear the Mei family's name, it's a good thing."

"A good thing?" The woman snorted coolly, "What does this innocence mean? Can it exchange for my Yan'er's life, or can it exchange for the lives of the Mei family! This good thing is not my good thing, but his good thing !”

When she mentioned her son who died unjustly and his parents who died unjustly, her eyes were filled with hatred.

"Back then, it was clear that the queen deliberately framed me. He was very suspicious and afraid of the power of the Mei family. He made indiscriminate conclusions, which led to the unjust death of my Mei family. Now, he wants to take advantage of the Weiyuan Marquis residence to give His road to the emperor has added a thick and colorful record, heh, he is really... Mingjun!"

The word Mingjun, the woman almost bit off the root.

"The person who contacted you a few days ago was Yu'er, right?" After saying the hateful words, the woman suddenly changed the topic and said to her grandma.

"You know?"

"You have been with me for so many years, how could you hide it from me!" He sighed with anger and hatred, "At first, I just thought he was going to give you some money to help us, but I didn't expect...all these years, he has been thinking about me. Yes, it’s still those few people, was it Concubine Hui who asked Yu’er to come?”

Although she lives in Wangjiazhuang, she still knows that a little nobleman back then has now become the concubine Hui who is favored in the harem.

Knowing that she couldn't hide it, Mammy nodded, "The Fourth Highness didn't say anything. He just asked the old slave for a recipe, saying that with this recipe, he could clear the grievances of the Mei family. When the Fourth Highness came down, the servant was really I was shocked, after all, in these years, no one except Mr. Gu knew that the young lady was here."

"At first, the servant refused to say anything. Later, His Highness the Fourth Highness said that it was the Marquis's wish, and the servant believed him. After all, there are Concubine Hui and the eldest daughter of the Gu family. No matter what, he will not harm them. Mademoiselle’s.”

"There are rumors outside that His Highness is unlearned and unskilled. I didn't expect that His Highness could do things so neatly. He just asked for it from his slave the day before yesterday, and now such news has spread."

"How could the children she raised be bad! The rumors from outside are most unbelievable! If they were bad, how could Gu Zhen marry the daughter of his daughter to him!" When Gu Zhen and Gu Yuqing were mentioned, the woman's face was as cold as frost. Only then did the temperature slow down a bit.
