Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 255 Unlucky feelings, musk bracelet (3)
"Isn't it too risky to do this?"

But Qiu Mingyue said with a gentle smile: "Grandmother, I am not the only daughter of the Qiu family. It's fine if my reputation is damaged, but if this is spread, all the children of the Qiu family will suffer. Since they did it Why don’t we make a big deal out of it? Anyway, so many noble ladies at the foot of Baohua Temple yesterday saw it. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. If you want to harm others, there are loopholes to exploit. Rumors are like flowing water, people think We can say whatever we say, and there is nothing we can do about it. It’s better to just make it bigger, the bigger the better.”

"People are curious and selfish. I'm just a concubine, and I haven't offended any powerful people. Why should I be put to death like this? And the more rumors spread, the whole Qiu family will be in danger. Grandfather and father And the status of the second uncle in the court, I think it will definitely cause quite a disturbance. At that time, this matter will cause a lot of trouble in the city, and people will naturally doubt it. Once there is doubt, the new public opinion will also be the same It will spread like weeds. At that time, the person behind it will probably be more anxious than us to put out the fire. And once the person shows his feet, it will be easier to find out."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden silence in the room.The old lady, the old lady, and the elder all stared at her.Only then did Qiu Mingyue realize that her words had already shown their sharpness, and she couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

In this world, it is believed that if a woman is not talented, she is a virtue. If a woman is too smart, she will only be hated by others.Now that there are many dangers around me, if I am worried about it again, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?
After a while, the old man finally said: "Mingyue's analysis makes sense."

Qiu Mingyue did not relax because of this, but became more nervous.In this autumn mansion, in fact, what she can't see through the most is this old man who has been immersed in officialdom all his life.His eyes are always deep and clear, and others can't help being afraid and timid.

Even though she has experienced more than [-] years of experience in her previous life, I dare not show any strange emotions in front of this head of the family.

The old man didn't continue this topic, but changed his voice.

"Not long will be the day when Princess Zhennan will hold a flower viewing banquet. That day Princess Zhennan rescued you and invited you to the palace to participate in the flower viewing banquet. It can be seen that she loves you very much." He paused, his eyes deepened a little. point.

"But you must also remember that you must not be arrogant because you are favored. You have lost your sense of proportion."

Qiu Mingyue nodded, "Yes, Mingyue knows."

"Yeah." The old man waved his hand, "Okay, you can go back."

Qiu Mingyue stood up, and when she was going out, the old man said something casually.

"Rumors stop at the wise, but some things will only snowball. If you are not greedy, you will have to pay a heavy price."

Qiu Mingyue paused, her expression changed.

Sure enough, even though he wanted to hide his clumsiness, the words just now had already exposed his feet in front of this great scholar who had gone through two dynasties.

That's right, she actually wanted to take advantage of this incident to make grandpa's grievances clear to people, and combine everything that happened during this period.Anyone with a little brain would think that these things are related to the Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Xue Guohou's calculations made her count back several times, and she would naturally hold a grudge against her.If I don't take this opportunity to dispel her arrogance, when she adjusts, I'm afraid waiting for him will be a bigger conspiracy.

Naturally, Qiu Mingyue would not forget that Mrs. Xue Guohou also had a daughter who was the eldest prince's side concubine.Mother and daughter have the same heart and interests.What's more, the Meixiang incident... Wait, yes, Meixiang, the incident last time was a double-edged sword.

Your face is raised slightly, Lin Yuzhi, if your daughter falls out of favor, do you still have the capital to be arrogant?
It was just that I was too impatient and didn't check for a while, so that the old man would be aware of my purpose.But I have forgotten that no matter how jealous the old man is, he will always be pedantic in his thinking, and what he talks about all day is that he doesn't care about those so-called family traditions.

It's good for me if this matter gets bigger, but from another aspect, why not put myself in a more unfavorable position?
Who can guarantee that those real political enemies of the Qiu family will not take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble?

As expected of the elders of the two dynasties, he was indeed more thoughtful than himself in considering things.

There are countless thoughts in my heart, but my face has only changed for a moment.

The next moment, she had recovered her composure.

Don't worry, now that I'm not full-fledged, I can't act too hastily.The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry.The eldest lady is very hot, and Mrs. Xue Guohou is very scheming.Coupled with Xue Guohou's Mansion and Grand Master's Mansion, as well as the intricate relationships behind them, it is really troublesome.

Rubbing her temples with her hands, Qiu Mingyue looked up at the sky.It was almost noon, even the sunlight at the end of spring, and it couldn't help being a little hot.

"Miss, shall we go back now?"

Qiu Mingyue shook her head, "It's still early, go and see Mingrui."

When they came to Zhimingyuan, Baifeng Baimei didn't come out to welcome him.Qiu Mingyue felt strange and walked in.The door was open, and the beaded curtain couldn't block the voices from inside.

"How is Mingrui resting these days? Is it better?"

With a voice as gentle as jade, one could tell it was Qiu Mingxuan.Qiu Mingyue stopped and didn't go in.However, the next moment, she laughed at herself. Seeing Qiu Mingxuan's unfathomable martial arts last night, didn't her actions look ridiculous?

"It's much better." Qiu Mingrui obviously liked being with Qiu Mingxuan very much.

"Brother, how is your hand? Is it okay?"

Qiu Mingyue opened the curtain and walked in, "Mingrui."

As soon as he heard her voice, Qiu Mingxuan, who was originally sitting on the side, turned his head subconsciously, and when he saw her, there seemed to be something extra in his pure eyes.However, it was only for a moment that he was as gentle as jade again.

"Mingyue, you are here."

Shen Shi, who was sitting by the bed, also turned her head, with a trace of surprise in her eyes.

"Mingyue? It's almost noon, what are you doing here at this time?"

Qiu Mingyue walked over leisurely and smiled.

"I'm here to see Mingrui, and I'm eating here by the way. Why, doesn't Mingrui welcome me?"

Qiu Mingrui smiled like a flower, "How come? My sister is here, I'm too happy. How can you not welcome me?"

Qiu Mingyue walked over, as if she only saw Qiu Mingxuan at this time.She nodded at him and called out politely.

"Big brother."

She wasn't sure if Qiu Mingxuan had noticed her aura last night. If it had been before, she would have been relieved to see him care about Mingrui so much. However, thinking of the thrilling scene last night, she still had lingering fears. .
