Concubine's true colors

Chapter 247
While speaking, Xiao Jinxuan had already arrived at Taining Courtyard.Just as soon as she came in, she could only see Aunt Li, who had been slapped by her yesterday, standing in front of the main room door, looking around.

And seeing her enter the courtyard through the door, Aunt Li and Xiao Jinxuan looked at each other, then rolled their eyes around, then lifted the curtain, turned around and entered the room.

Seeing Aunt Li's appearance of letting the door open, Xiao Jinxuan knew that the other party must be sent out, so pay attention to observe when she arrives.

And as soon as she steps into the Taining courtyard, it is estimated that a good show will start in the main room.

As if to verify that Xiao Jinxuan's inference was not wrong at all, she had just finished guessing, but there were already low-pitched cries from the servant girls in the house.

And when Xiao Jinxuan lifted the curtain and went in, she saw Aunt Li who was outside the room just now, who was still calm, but now she was lying in front of the bed, crying so hard that she was so dizzy and hoarse.

When Aunt Li saw Xiao Jinxuan coming in, she immediately rushed towards her and shouted loudly like a shrew:
"It's all because of you, a lowly concubine, who disturbed the old matriarch yesterday, causing her to stay up all night. She couldn't get sick today, and she fainted now. If my master, there will be someone in your handsome mansion." Anyway, our Duke is a filial son, and he will definitely not let you go."

The Duke that Aunt Li was talking about was referring to the eldest son of the old matriarch, the current Duke of Hua, Bai Dongyang.

Although Bai Dongyang has no official position, he is only a prince of the idle country, but the wife he married is also a princess of the royal family, and she is also the sister of Emperor Ming's mother, Princess Cheng'an.

So now that Aunt Li moved Bai Dongyang out, her words were really insane.

After all, Bai Dongyang not only inherited the status of the first prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but also married the consort of the princess, and his relative Shu Mingdi was also his brother-in-law. With these layers of identities laid out, the servants of the White House, The eyes have always been higher than the top, and it is difficult for people from ordinary families to catch their eyes.

And if it wasn't for the following Chi Ling who grabbed Aunt Li, it is estimated that the other party would have dared to do something to Xiao Jinxuan. After all, the people of the Bai family have always been used to being arrogant. , is also a very pungent and powerful.

And Xiao Jinxuan looked at Aunt Li, who was caught and couldn't move, and couldn't help crying and cursing her, her gentle expression immediately sank, and she told Zhu Xin beside her:

"Give me a hard slap on the mouth. It seems that a dozen slaps yesterday still didn't make this old foolish slave remember me. No matter how humble I am, I'm not a prostitute like you who can curse and despise me at will. Now you You are still trying to do something to me, so what if you are a servant of the Bai family, I will directly ask someone to beat you to death with a stick, and throw you out to feed the dogs, so the Duke's Mansion will ask me, Xiao Jinxuan, to pay for your life."

Hearing Xiao Jinxuan's words, the maids of Xiao's family in the room couldn't help shaking their bodies immediately, their heads were so low that they didn't even dare to look at Xiao Jinxuan.

After all, as servants of the commander-in-chief's mansion, many of them have seen with their own eyes how Xiao Jinxuan tortured the spy in the mansion a while ago.

Therefore, when the other party said that people were going to be beaten to death with sticks, the servants of the Bai family might just treat Xiao Jinxuan as a threat, but all the servants of the Xiao family knew that this concubine lady of their own family could definitely do it. this kind of thing.

And Zhu Xin, who had long been angry with Aunt Li, a wicked woman, is now practicing next to Xiao Jinxuan, who slapped Lan Zhi a few times when she was not in Yangzhou in the past.On the contrary, she frightened the little girl who made herself cry.

Immediately, she saw her rolling up the sleeve of her right hand, and slapped Aunt Li's face one after another, slapping her face that hadn't completely subsided after a night.

Loud applause, accompanied by Aunt Li's wailing, instantly resounded in the room, but Xiao Jinxuan calmly came to the soft couch, looked at the old lady of the Bai family lying there with her eyes closed, motionless, and felt in her heart. I can't help but sneer.

If Jin Chuan hadn't told her in advance that the other party was pretending to be sick, Xiao Jinxuan might really be fooled by the old matriarch, who looked like he was going to die.

But now the other party is lying on the bed, and the servants around her are being punished by her. It is estimated that the old lady will feel very uncomfortable. Xiao Jinxuan really wants to see how long the other party can pretend to be ill. She has to force it. The old lady can't wake up by herself.

When she was about to withdraw her eyes from the old lady, Xiao Jinxuan looked at the old lady, and said in a cold voice:

"Grandmother, since the old matriarch is ill, she should go to the palace immediately and ask the imperial physician to treat her. Now the house is full of servants of the Bai family, crying and crying. What they know is that they are worried about the old matriarch's body. I thought someone died in this Taining Courtyard. Just now, my granddaughter was not close to the house, and she was really frightened when she heard the low cries in this area. After all, you and the old lady are very old. I thought it was your two elders What accident happened, which caused the whole courtyard to cry bitterly."

Hearing these words, the old madam only felt that her eyes went dark, the old matriarch pretended to be sick and passed out, but she was almost not so angry that she really fainted.

The meaning of Xiao Jinxuan's words is obvious, but it is nothing more than implying that the crying servants of the Bai family in this room really seem to be sending someone to the end. Thinking of her own Taining courtyard, the crying The appearance was indeed too unlucky, and the old lady's expression became a little ugly immediately.

This is a scene where people cry bitterly.In fact, it was to highlight the seriousness of the old lady's illness, so as to deepen Xiao Jinxuan's crimes, but now that a few words from this concubine's granddaughter poured her own bad luck, the old lady felt so awkward.

And Xiao Jinyu, who was at the side, heard this, and immediately stood up with a displeased expression.

These two old people are now her biggest reliance, she can't help Xiao Jinxuan, really annoyed them with his words, otherwise who will support her at that time.

"Sister Jinxuan, what you said is too harsh. The servants of the Bai family will weep secretly because they are worried about the health of the grandmother. If you didn't speak unrestrainedly yesterday and angered the grandmother, how could the old man do it now?" I fell ill, so speaking of all of this, it was all your fault."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan didn't wait for Xiao Jinxuan to open her mouth, because the old lady is a distinguished guest, so the mother and daughter of the Zhao family also came to visit when she fell ill, so Xiao Jinwen stood up, and then spoke quietly road:
"Sister Jinyu's words are too one-sided. Why is the old lady sick now? How can you be sure that Jinxuan caused it before the imperial doctor came to treat him? As for Aunt Li, the words just now were really inappropriate , this is what we all have seen with our own eyes. It is only natural for Jinxuan to deal with her. Otherwise, the daughter of my commander-in-chief's mansion will be contradicted by the servants of the Duke's mansion, but he will not fight back or scold him. Then I Xiao Isn't the face of the family about to fall."

Xiao Jinyu and Xiao Jinxuan have always used the identity of the first sister to deliberately suppress each other in their words.

But Xiao Jinwen is a descendant of the big family, the eldest lady of the handsome mansion, compared to Xiao Jinyu's single round status in the mansion, she is a bit more noble, so when she saw her speak, Xiao Jinyu really couldn't say anything, so she had to grit her teeth, Reluctantly, he kept silent.

At this time, Xiao Jinxuan gave Xiao Jinwen a slight thankful look at the eldest sister.

But she will not be ambiguous about what she should do. Since the old lady and the others haven't been deterred last night, she doesn't suggest a few ruthless blows to make them completely afraid of herself.

Immediately, I saw Xiao Jinxuan glanced at her eyes. The servants of the Bai family who are afraid to cry now know that those who can enter this house to serve must be the personal servants of the old lady, and she immediately came to the Zhao family. in front of him, and said softly and calmly:

"Auntie, these members of the Bai family are now crying loudly in the yard of my grandmother and doing such unlucky things even if they are not servants of my Xiao family. But my niece still wants to ask you to be punished according to the family rules of my commander-in-chief's mansion. Since the Duke's mansion is a relative of the emperor, even if he finds out afterwards, he will only agree with our Xiao family's actions, and will not make unreasonable troubles and feel resentment in his heart .”

Mrs. Bai is the backer invited by the old lady, and Mrs. Zhao is naturally aware of this. It is also what she is eager to do now that she can drive the Bai family out of the commander's mansion as soon as possible.

And right now, as soon as Xiao Jinxuan came back, she helped her regain the right to be the head of the family. Now, whatever the other party said, Mrs. Zhao would definitely cooperate with all her strength.

Immediately, Mrs. Zhao nodded hurriedly, then took Xiao Jinxuan's hand, patted the back of her hand, and said with a face full of relief:
"Jinxuan is really filial. For your grandmother, she has really considered it carefully. It is really bad for these servants to cry and cry. If they are not severely punished, it will appear that my Xiao family is too unruly. Since the niece is so filial, how do I punish my aunt for letting her go? All the rights are entrusted to you, but Jinxuan must remember to be careful, small punishments and big punishments are immediate, and my Bai and Xiao families are family friends, so it would be bad to hurt the harmony."

Mrs. Zhao now sees clearly that Xiao Jinxuan is the first in everything, and is willing to delegate power to the other party. No matter how you look at it, she is a good aunt who is sensible and friendly.

But only she knew in her heart that now she would hand over the full power to Xiao Jinxuan, and that was also selfish, because the Zhao family really wanted to force the Bai family away, but at the same time, she didn't want to offend the Duke's mansion.

Therefore, this will put aside the relationship and ask Xiao Jinxuan to come forward. Even if people in the Duke's Mansion feel dissatisfied, she can still put it all on this niece, and she can be alone.

It has to be said that Zhao's scheming has indeed deepened a lot over the past few months, but she thinks that she is clever, but Xiao Jinxuan has always been good at planning, and she can see through the other party's thoughts at a glance. .

In fact, ever since Mrs. Zhao personally welcomed her out of the city and was eager to drag her back home, Xiao Jinxuan knew that this eldest aunt's wishful thinking was to hide behind her back and let her rush forward to fight against the old lady.

However, although Xiao Jinxuan was aware of Zhao's thoughts, she was unwilling to care about anything with this aunt who had been kind to her in her previous life.

And even if Mrs. Zhao doesn't use her, Xiao Jinxuan will force Old Madam Bai out of the commander's mansion in order to save future troubles.

Therefore, since the eldest aunt wanted to avoid suspicion so much, she didn't have to drag him into the water. It was because of her past kindness that she was being the first bird, so it was not a big deal.

Therefore, seeing that Mrs. Zhao left the right of punishment to herself, Xiao Jinxuan immediately waved her hand and pointed it directly at the kneeling ground. Those servants of the Bai family who were already panicked now ordered in a cold voice:

"Jinchuan, you are the aunt in charge of the Taining Academy. The eldest aunt is now in charge of the house. Since she has entrusted me to handle this matter, I must be willing to accept my orders."

Jin Chuan was originally Zhou Xianrui's person, but on the bright side, she immediately put on a embarrassed look, and glanced at the old lady, and then said reluctantly:

"Miss Jinxuan is the master, and the eldest lady is the head of the family. Since the lady has spoken, the lady will follow her orders. How can a servant not listen to her?"
