The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down
Chapter 58 What is there for men to fight for
Liu Moyan felt sick at the thought of being forced to snatch men and compete for favors.
She and Pei Shuo were childhood sweethearts, and he had never made her jealous of others because of women. If she had not been plotted against in her previous life and died unexpectedly, she even thought that if she survived and endured, Pei Shuo would definitely come back to find her.
She would rather fight with her sister for a piece of pancake than compete with a group of girls for a woman under someone else's scheme.
Liu Qingwan is not the type to snatch men away. She has been raised by Zhang since she was a child. Although she is not Zhang's biological daughter, Zhang treats her better than Liu Moyan. She is not an ungrateful person and can tell whether Zhang is sincere or not.
Therefore, under Zhang's words and deeds, Liu Qingwan had no interest in competing for favor. Zhang said that if a woman wanted to live a good life, she must first stand firm on her own.
If you rely on tricks to compete for a man, you will live your whole life under the man's mood. When the man is happy, he will reward you with a bite of food, and when he doesn't like you anymore, he will abandon you at any time.
Never commit such stupidity.
Liu Qingwan followed Zhang and learned the skills of being the head of the household.
So when he heard that he was going to be involved in such trouble, he immediately said decisively: "Madam Pei, do you have any way to send a message to the outside world?"
Pei Shuo received the news from the palace and his expression changed immediately after reading it.
He hurried to find his parents and told them the contents.
"The royal family is determined to drag us down, and now they won't even let Yan Yan go. Father, we can't just sit there and wait for death."
The Duke of Zhenguo asked him to calm down: "What a hurry you are. You didn't panic when your elder sister came to the palace. You panicked when you heard that the Third Prince favored the girl from the Liu family."
Pei Shuo was choked, but he was not ashamed. "How can I not be anxious? Sister still has us to plan for her, but Yanyan's family is not something I can make decisions on my own."
After all, they are not engaged or married, and now Liu Moyan has entered the palace for selection, so he cannot protect her openly.
Madam Pei laughed: "If you had told her earlier, my mother would have come to propose marriage a long time ago. It's not that you were stubborn and said that you would only propose marriage if she was willing. Do you regret it now?"
Pei Shuo was helpless: "Mother, please don't tease your son. Who knows that plans can't keep up with changes."
He regretted it very much, and he never expected that the third prince would jump out and snatch the person from him.
In his eyes, the royal family is now going too far. Not only do they want to force his sister into the palace, they also want to snatch away the person he likes.
The Duke of Zhenguo is loyal to the court and the people, but not to the absurd and unjust prince.
If Xu Yao heard his inner voice, he would also sigh and say that it was no wonder that the emperor could not tolerate the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
It is true that the Duke of Zhenguo is capable, but more often than not, what the superior needs is an honest and obedient dog, not a powerful minister who is capable but may betray him at any time.
The rebellious nature of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is truly in their bones.
"The three of them pretended to be sick in order to test the attitude of the harem, but now they have backfired and become sitting ducks. I'm afraid that soon someone will take action against them." The Duke of Zhenguo sighed.
Madam Pei looked at the news her daughter brought, paused, and said, "I'm afraid they have already taken action."
The daughter of the Pingzhou governor was the first to jump out and attacked Liu Moyan without warning. Madam Pei felt something was wrong.
"I have already started to make arrangements for your sister's matter. As for which prince the Pingzhou governor is targeting, you should go and find out."
Pei Shuo begged his mother to get the three of them out together. They were all daughters of the Liu family, and there was no reason to leave Liu Qingwan alone.
On the other hand, Zhang ordered people to investigate the bandits her sister mentioned. However, after investigating all the way, they found that they had never heard of any bandits near Tengjiao Mountain.
The servants reported that the security in that area was good and the local people had not encountered bandits for many years, let alone the mountain stronghold that Zhang Erniang mentioned. Maybe Zhang Erniang remembered the wrong place.
Mrs. Zhang swore that she had not. She was imprisoned in the mountain stronghold and clearly heard them say that it was Tengjiao Mountain and Longhu Stronghold. The man who forced her daughter to get engaged was a bearded man in his thirties.
He looked ferocious and terrifying, with a bloody and murderous aura, and it was obvious that he had killed someone before.
Zhang thought the matter was strange and suspected that the village and the name of the mountain were deliberately let her sister hear by that gang.
But this would make things even more troublesome.
The other party obviously knew everything about the Han family, but I knew nothing about them. In this way, I would be forced to take a beating.
They are the women, and they are afraid of the consequences, so they really have no idea what to do at the moment.
Mother Qin didn't know that Hui Niang was forced to sign the marriage contract. She just thought that Zhang Er Niang wanted to deal with a few blind bandits, so she said, "Madam, don't we have a maid in our house who is good at getting information?"
Zhang paused, thinking of Xu Yao. "She? She's just a fire-making girl. It's OK for her to follow someone like Zhao Mingbo, but Zheng Rong couldn't even find the bandits, so what can she do?"
Mother Qin lowered her voice and said, "We can't let too many people know about this now. We have Xu Yao's indenture contract in our hands, and she does have some skills, so why not give her a try? What if... What I mean is, if we really find out something, it will be easier to deal with her."
Although Mother Qin didn't know what happened to Madam Zhang, she vaguely guessed that it was very troublesome and couldn't be known to outsiders. In this case, it would be most appropriate to find someone who could handle it.
Zhang immediately understood what Mother Qin meant. Zheng Rong couldn't find the person because she had hidden other information. Perhaps these things made it impossible for him to find the person.
If there is someone who knows all the information and can find the bandits, then it would be much easier to get rid of this person for the safety of Hui Niang and her son in the future.
The answer is obvious: choose a younger sister or a fire-making girl.
Xu Yao was secretly called by Zhang. After hearing Zhang's request, he immediately realized that this was a huge trap.
If you are a servant who knows your boss's most secret scandal but is not his confidant, then by the time you finish your job, it will be your turn to die.
She sneered in her heart, but her face was full of confusion and deliberately disgusting: "Why didn't you report to the police when you met bandits?"
Zhang choked and said, "This is about my daughter's innocence. If I report it to the authorities, won't she be killed without a burial place?"
"But she didn't do anything wrong. It was clearly the bandits who were wrong, but it was Miss Cousin who was the one who died without a burial place?"
Xu Yao asked sincerely. Zhang was not stunned, but looked at Xu Yao in surprise. After a long while, she sighed and said, "You are still young and don't understand how evil the world is to women. I know what you said, but the world is so unfair. It is obviously those men who do bad things, but when something goes wrong, we women are the only ones who are insulted.
Ah Yao, there is so much malice towards women in this world, I have no choice but to ask you for help. I can’t let dirty rumors drive Hui Niang to death.”
