Concubine's true colors

Chapter 290

Xiao Jinyu's words, as well as the strange dream told by the other party, made Bai Liu feel extremely unbelievable.

But she knew that Xiao Jinyu was now in a state of difficulty sleeping and eating because of Xiao Jinxuan, so she quickly comforted her:

"Cousin, you may be thinking about it every day, so you have dreams at night, not to mention that even if the two of you sisters are not in harmony with each other, Xiao Jinxuan is a concubine after all, how can she have the ability to really pose a threat to you. "

After a pause, Bai Liu suddenly moved closer to Xiao Jinyu's ear, and said with a gleam in his eyes:

"The state banquet will be held in two days, but cousin, don't worry, even if the dream indicates that Xiao Jinxuan will hurt you, but after tonight, she really has such vicious thoughts, and she will not succeed in her life."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinyu, who was worried just because of the memories of those dreams, immediately covered her red lips subconsciously, and then hurriedly asked with a trace of excitement:
"Cousin, are you going to deal with Xiao Jinxuan tonight? You have some confidence in this matter. Good sister, please tell your sister quickly, so that I won't have to worry about making wild guesses."

Seeing Xiao Jinyu's impatience, Bai Liu, who originally wanted to keep the news as secret as possible, had no choice but to smile, and then said slowly:
"The commander-in-chief's mansion is here as a guest, so we will naturally have dinner together tonight, and it's not difficult to call Xiao Jinxuan and eat some unclean food. After all, this is the Bai family, and there are countless opportunities to make a move." number."

Then Bai Liu pulled Xiao Jinyu along and walked forward, while continuing to say:

"Actually, I didn't intend to do it so early. After all, Xiao Jinxuan was also invited to the state banquet. It was too noticeable to kill her before that. But a few days ago, I asked my sister to find a good medicine. As long as it is ingested, it will not kill people in a short period of time. At first, the poisoned person just has diarrhea and looks sleepy. But after about half a month, he will start to have blood in the stool, and the whole person will become dehydrated and faint. tortured to death."

Hearing this, although Xiao Jinyu secretly looked forward to it, she still did not forget to ask cautiously:
"Cousin's medicine is so effective and domineering. I don't know if it will be easy to detect afterward. After all, Xiao Jinxuan's dead girl is very majestic. Not only is Yu Wang protecting her, but also Prince Rui is helping her. My sister heard rumors that Yong Chang Wang actually intends to recognize her as a goddaughter, if she dies and is found out on our heads, it will be troublesome after all."

In fact, although Xiao Jinyu can't be said to be extremely intelligent, she has always been scheming.

Just like now, things haven't happened yet, she is already planning for her own way out, and it can be said that she is quite cautious.

But just when facing Xiao Jinxuan, just like what she said, that indescribable sense of anger and hatred would burst out of her heart.

That's why, when she saw Xiao Jinxuan, she often lost her composure, instead she only knew how to be brave and fierce, but in the end she always made herself ashamed.

Everything in this world must have a causal connection somewhere.

Just like those dreams that often troubled Xiao Jinyu, the scene where Xiao Jinxuan knelt down and begged for mercy was a true portrayal of the two of them in their previous lives.

As for the dream that Xiao Jinxuan would kill her with a knife, it was actually an omen that the two sisters were fighting each other in this life.

Although these dreams are unimaginable, they are not without traces. They are really mysterious, but they are unbelievable.

But hearing that Xiao Jinyu was worried that someone would find out the truth about the poisoning afterwards, Bai Liu smiled confidently, and then said with certainty:

"You don't need to worry about this, because this kind of medicine that can cause people to die from diarrhea is not poisonous at all, but the catharsis effect it produces will kill people, so even if it is investigated afterwards, because Xiao Jinxuan died, No trace of toxins will be produced in her body, so no matter how the cause of her death is investigated, it will only be classified as a death from illness in the end, which will never arouse anyone's suspicion."

Seeing what Bai Liu said was so sure, Xiao Jinyu was completely relieved, but instead she snorted and said rather unwillingly:

"It's too cheap to let her die like this. I don't want to make things difficult for this concubine sister. It's really hard to understand. I only hate it. Anyway, this is the Duke's mansion. I also ask my cousin to help Jinyu and treat Xiao Jinxuan well." It's just a matter of time, and she can't be too complacent."

Hearing this, although Bai Liu felt that since he had already planned to take Xiao Jinxuan's life, there was really no need to make extra troubles and make things difficult for the other party, deliberately making things difficult for him.

But since Xiao Jinyu has opened her mouth, she can only nod and smile and say:

"Now that we have come to our Bai family, how to deal with her is not up to my cousin. After a while, my cousin will play by ear and find a way to punish her to vent your anger. But now we have to catch up with each other quickly, after all You have just come to the mansion, according to the rules, I have to take you to meet the elders in the mansion, we must do everything well, then Xiao Jinxuan is very shrewd, and she must not show any flaws."

Now that he had made up his mind, Xiao Jinyu was still very willing to cooperate, so the two quickened their pace, and reunited with Xiao Jinxuan without much effort.

The four girls looked happy, but they came to the living room of the back house with their own concerns in their hearts, and then greeted the people in the hall one by one according to their rank.

After all the corresponding rules and etiquette were completed, the old matriarch, the host, asked first:
"You girls, where have you gone for fun? It took so long to come here. I almost wanted to send someone to find you."

Inviting the handsome mansion to be a guest is actually to deal with Xiao Jinxuan's matter.

The old lady Bai also knew it well, although she taught Bai Liu to do it, she didn't know the details when she, her granddaughter, would do it.

But when he thought about how he lost face because of Xiao Jinxuan when he was in the commander's mansion, the old lady Bai wished that the other party could die in front of her.

Therefore, seeing that the four daughters had delayed their arrival for so long, the old matriarch thought that Bai Liu had already done something secretly.

So when they met, they became impatient and asked them what they had done just now with a pun in their words.

And upon hearing this, Bai Liu, who was in charge of entertaining the daughters of the Xiao family, hurriedly said with a smile on his face:

"Grandmother is bothering you, but I took the three younger sisters along the way, looked at the exquisiteness of our mansion, and chatted a little more, so it was a waste of time, and I made the elders wait for a long time."

Seeing that Bai Liu took everything wrong on her body, Mrs. Xiao, who returned to her mother's house as a guest, immediately smoothed things over and said with a smile:

"It's normal for you juniors to like to play around a bit, not to mention that Princess Cheng'an hasn't arrived yet, so you're not too late. When you meet Her Royal Highness, remember to abide by the rules and be courteous. Although the Bai and Xiao clans are very close We are a family, but the due courtesy must not be lost."

The current Hua Guogong, that is, the eldest son of the old matriarch, Bai Dongyang, married the first wife, the sister of Emperor Ming's mother and compatriots, Princess Cheng'an.

Because Her Royal Highness is the elder sister of today's emperor, this status is extremely noble.

Princess Huayang, who had died in Xiao Jinxuan's hands in the past, was also the emperor's daughter and the younger sister of Emperor Ming, but compared with An Cheng, she was like stars and moons.

Therefore, even in the capital, Mrs. Xiao, who was so senior that even the princes seldom paid attention to her, did not dare to underestimate and be rude to this nephew and daughter-in-law.

And who knows, almost as soon as Mrs. Xiao's voice fell, the old matriarch over there flashed a look of impatience, and said in a slightly colder tone:
"Okay, Yuanxiang, don't warn these juniors anymore. My princess daughter-in-law is fasting this month. It is difficult for me, an old lady, to see her. No matter what distinguished guests come to the mansion, she will never show up." The only time I came out recently was because my daughter-in-law was summoned by the palace a few days ago. Therefore, even if these juniors have intentions, my daughter-in-law will not come out to meet people. She’s almost turning herself into a puppet, and there’s really nothing she can do about it.”

Bai Yuanxiang is Mrs. Xiao, her family name, and now the entire Beijing Teachers Association is like this. It is estimated that there will never be more than ten people who call her by her name.

As for the daughter-in-law of Princess Cheng'an, an old matriarch who is also from the royal family, it can be seen from her words that she is extremely dissatisfied with her.

After all, the old lady has always been used to being complimented by others, even the princess of the royal family, after she is married as a daughter-in-law, she never has to pay her respects and kowtow every day.

But when the old lady is the daughter-in-law of the Bai family, she can save these etiquettes herself.

But when it was Princess Cheng'an's turn not to greet her every day, she felt extremely dissatisfied in her heart, and even felt that she was being neglected.

Therefore, in the mind of the old matriarch, although Wu is only an ordinary wife, she has always respected her, so she can be regarded as an obedient and good daughter-in-law, and she likes this daughter-in-law even more.

At the beginning, the Wu family was able to be promoted as an equal wife, sharing equal shares with Princess Cheng'an, and now she is in charge of the power of the Duke's Mansion.

To a large extent, it was all because of the support of the old lady.

Hearing that she was waiting for someone to come, Princess Cheng'an might not come to see her. Mrs. Xiao didn't say anything, but she felt uncomfortable after all. She felt that the princess' niece and daughter-in-law's airs were indeed a little too big.

But at this moment, Bai Liu suddenly smiled slightly, and then suddenly suggested:

"Grandmother, aunt, in fact, Bai Liu felt that although my mother-in-law could not come out to see each other because she devoted herself to worshiping the Buddha, we, as juniors, should never lose the etiquette rules. Therefore, Liu'er has a suggestion, why don't you ask me to guide you?" The younger sisters of the Shuai Mansion, go to see the aunt, it is the most appropriate after thinking about it."

The grandmother Bai Liu mentioned was naturally referring to the old matriarch.And aunt refers to Mrs. Xiao.

After all, the old lady is also from the Bai family, Bai Liu's father, and Bai Dongyang's aunt. Therefore, as a grandniece, she should be called aunt according to her seniority.

As for the aunt in Bai Liu's mouth, it was naturally referring to Princess Cheng An. Even if Wu Shi was promoted as a flat wife, the title of aunt would never be used on her.

As for Bai Liu's proposal, everyone felt that it was very reasonable, so they agreed.

Therefore, Bai Liu, who once again attracted the three daughters of the Xiao family, and brought a large group of maids, was about to leave the living room and rush to Princess Cheng'an's residence.

It's just that when passing by Xiao Jinxuan, Bai Liu suddenly smiled in a very subtle way, full of deep meaning.

And a ray of light quietly flashed across her eyes, but in an instant, she couldn't see anything unusual about her.
