The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 330 Princess, Are You Crazy? (5)
Now that Chu Yueyao has made such a big mess, not to mention Mrs. Zheng is furious, even Zheng Duo is not happy.

"But now all the money in the mansion has been scattered, the livelihood of this family is also a problem." Chu Qihui is dead, and they must not go to the East Palace to ask Chu Yi'an for money. , the livelihood of nearly two hundred people is a major issue, and no one can let anyone know that such a thing happened in their house, how to plug this hole?
Mrs. Zheng is also furious, but since the matter has already happened, so what?
"When Kang'er comes back, talk to him carefully, tell him to calm down, and tidy up those shops and take care of them. The income from the land outside the city was only handed in a year ago, so let's pay for this year first. Let’s make do with it.” Weighing for a moment, Mrs. Zheng said: “I’ll ask Mama Hu to count the money after the first month, and transfer the money from my private treasury to the public.”

"Mother, you can't do this!" Zheng Duo's eyes became anxious all of a sudden, "Those are the coffin books you have saved all your life, no matter what happens, your son can't touch your money."

"What do my mother and son say these things for?" Mrs. Zheng sighed, "I brought money with me when I was born. Don't take it back—"

The old lady frowned unconsciously when she thought that there was no one to take care of the middle class at home. Now that she is old, she really doesn't want to worry about these trivial matters anymore.

Zheng Duo naturally thought of something, and he said with a worried look on his brows: "Chu Yueyao's handling of it like this, will the East Palace—"

"Do you think I don't know anything behind closed doors? On a day like today, she would go to the East Palace to make trouble in public. His Royal Highness didn't care about her father-daughter relationship." Madam Zheng said coldly. He scoffed, not to mention that Chu Yueyao caused so much trouble for the Zheng family, even if Chu Yi'an wanted to protect her, he would not agree.

Seeing her determination, Zheng Duo didn't say anything more, and comforted her a few more words before getting up and leaving.

Chu Qifeng requested that Chu Qihui be buried with royal etiquette on behalf of Chu Yi'an. Although the emperor did not agree, he did not completely reject it. He was only allowed to stop him in the East Palace.

Of course, because Chu Qihui had already been demoted to a commoner in advance, Chu Qihui could not be buried in the imperial mausoleum, but chose another cemetery for him outside the eastern suburbs.

The funeral went very smoothly, but these three days were not too long, but many embarrassing events happened.

First, Zhang Ding, Marquis of Dingbei, was greedy for ink and repaired canals and money, disregarding the lives and deaths of innocent people. In the end, the incident in Dongcheng even killed his relatives and sons in an attempt to frame Princess Anle to damage the reputation of the royal family and force the emperor to submit. The emperor remembered his old favor, Although he beheaded Dingbei Hou to show the public, he didn't hurt his family, he only took his title and demoted him to a commoner.

As Zhang's wife, Princess Anle also asked herself to be guilty of the same crime as her husband's family, and was revoked by the emperor and sent to a temple to practice.

It is true that having said that, the previous version of the story of Chu Lingyun murdering her husband for personal affection is still circulating in private, which is obviously more talked about than the version given in the imperial decree.

Coincidentally, the princess of the Nanhe Prince's Mansion fell into the mud from the sky before the limelight had passed, but someone discovered that his own sister, Chu Yueyao, did not show up on the day of Chu Qihui's funeral. Because of the successive deaths of her mother and elder brother, the princess suffered from insanity due to excessive grief and confusion, and began to recuperate behind closed doors.

With these two rumors, the death of the so-called grandson of Chu Qihui, who was already a common man, was less discussed, and because the emperor kept silent about it, the matter seemed to be innocuous It's over, only Dali Temple is still clamoring to catch the murderer.

On the second day of Chu Qihui's burial, Chu Xunyang dressed up and went out early in the morning, bringing gifts to the Pingguo Mansion to visit his elder sister who was "recovering from illness".

Mrs. Lin, the duke's wife, was also secretly sent away, so the news of Chu Xunyang's visit was directly reported to Mrs. Zheng.

Mrs. Zheng paused for a moment with her fingers twisting the prayer beads.

Mother Hu said worriedly: "Old Madam, I am afraid that the owner of the Xunyang County is not a good person. She has not had any contact with the princess in the past two years, and she came to the door suddenly at this moment—could it be for us to release it?" information?"

"Since she said that she is here to visit a doctor, then you can take her there. Just say that I am not feeling well, so I won't see her." Mrs. Zheng seemed to weigh for a moment with a blank face, then closed her eyes and continued. chanting.

"Yes!" Mother Hu agreed, turned around and went out with a little worry, and went to the gate to pick up Chu Xunyang in person.

When leading Chu Xunyang to the backyard, Hu's mother conveyed the old lady's meaning in a formulaic manner, "Master Xunyang, I'm really sorry, our old lady has caught the cold and is not very refreshed, saying yes I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for you to come out after being sick, so please forgive me."

"It was me who took the liberty and didn't dare to bother the old lady. I just came to see my elder sister by my father's order, and I asked my mother to say hello to the old lady on my behalf." Chu Xunyang said, following her with a smile on his lips. walk.

Madam Hu looked at her expression out of the corner of her eye, and she didn't see anything when she saw the brilliance between her eyebrows, but thinking of Chu Yueyao's crazy appearance of crying and fighting for the past two days, she felt a little uneasy— —

Let Chu Xunyang see her at this time, don't want to reveal his secrets.

When Chu Xunyang caught a glimpse of her, he acted as if he didn't see her, and followed to the courtyard where Chu Yueyao lived.

It can be seen that Mrs. Zheng is a very scheming person. Even if Chu Yueyao is under house arrest, she will still be placed in the big courtyard where she lived before. At least on the surface, no one can say that their Zheng family treated Chu Yueyao harshly.

"The princess is a little delirious these days, and she doesn't speak properly. If you say something that shouldn't be said in a while, please take care of it." Mother Hu ordered someone to open the door.

"It's natural, she is my eldest sister, even if she has something inappropriate, I won't bother with her." Chu Xunyang smiled slightly, and glanced around along the way.

The only guards in this courtyard are the two women at the door. It seems that Mrs. Zheng is really sure to control Chu Yueyao to death.

The woman who guarded the door opened the door, and Mother Hu led Chu Xunyang in by herself. As soon as she arrived in the yard, she heard the sound of porcelain falling from the main room and Chu Yueyao's hoarse voice: "Old witch, Slut! I am the princess and the eldest daughter of the Eastern Palace, how can you let me be trampled like this? Let me out, you let me out!"
