After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

Xiao Yunxi was practicing calligraphy when she heard Chunxiao come to report that Nanny Li had arrived.

Without even raising her head, she ordered Nanny Li to come in.

"Princess, the old lady wants you to go to Shou'an Hall. She said...she has something to ask of you."

Nanny Li's attitude was unprecedentedly respectful, making Chunxiao feel as if the princess was her ancestor.

Xiao Yunxi still didn't look up, nor did she speak, but just concentrated on practicing calligraphy.

After about an incense stick of time, she put down her pen and said calmly, "Thank you for troubling Madam Li to run this trip. I'll change my clothes and then go with you."

Madam Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll be waiting for you outside."

Chun Xiao looked at Nanny Li's fawning look and found it a little funny. "Princess, what did the old lady ask of you that frightened Nanny Li so much that she nodded and bowed?"

Xiao Yunxi said slowly, "What else can you ask for? Of course, you ask me to forgive Lu Jingting and keep his position as the crown prince, and keep the Dong family."

"Bah! That's wishful thinking. The prince is now a stone that has fallen into a toilet, and you are being forced to pick it up!"

Xiao Yunxi didn't say anything.

"Princess, you are not really going to help them, are you?" Chun Xiao stamped her feet anxiously, "Why don't we just leave the mansion now and ask the old master and the second young master to submit a petition..."

"Or we can wait until my wife returns to the capital and then charge into the Prince of Zhennan's mansion!"

Xiao Yunxi twitched her lips. Is her mother a great killer in this maid's heart?

She sighed, "This is just a small matter, but it's not enough to depose Lu Jingting. Even if he is deposed as the Crown Prince, the Prince of Zhennan still has one legitimate son and two illegitimate sons. The old lady and Lu Jingting are easy to deal with, but the old prince and the prince are not easy to deal with."

Xiao Yunxi knew in her heart that she had to either wait for more than ten years for Lu Zhan to take over the military power of the palace, or find a way to completely destroy the household register of the Zhennan Palace. Otherwise, the emperor would not be satisfied, and she could only wait and see.

It's hard to say that Lu Jingting was deceiving the emperor for such a small matter. At most, he is considered to be lacking in morals, unless... Lin Wan'er is the daughter of a traitor.

However, why did the emperor uncle insist on marrying her to Lu Jingting?

Is there something in the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion that the Emperor uncle is superstitious about?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunxi sighed helplessly. Well, let them jump around for a few more days.

She withdrew her thoughts and followed Nanny Li to Shou'an Hall.

"Princess, grandma is too embarrassed to see you."

As soon as the old lady saw Xiao Yunxi, she took her hand and started crying.

"This Lin Wan'er is really abominable. Jing Ting is indeed useless. He actually fell into her trap."

"What the old lady said is true. The prince is indeed quite incompetent."

Xiao Yunxi's words were so sharp that they hurt the old lady's face.

She thought that, since she was the elder, Xiao Yunxi would take the opportunity to back off and offer some comfort.

"Princess, you are the mistress of the house, so how do you want to deal with Lin Wan'er?"

Ruan's expression, which indicated that Xiao Yunxi could vent her anger, made her feel sick.

"According to the Dali law, she should be paraded through the streets and then thrown into a pig cage. If the old lady wants to leave her with dignity, just beat her to death with sticks and throw her into a mass grave."

Ruan thought for a moment and said, "Then just drag her to the mass grave and beat her to death. This will save us the trouble of wrapping her in a straw mat."

The old lady wiped away her tears and remained silent.

She looked at Xiao Yunxi steadily, as if she was thinking seriously about what they said.

After a while, she told Ruan to go back and rest.

Ruan was puzzled, "Mother, we haven't decided how to deal with that little bitch yet, why are you sending me away? Isn't your daughter-in-law tired!"

The old lady was angry, "If you are not tired, I am tired, get out!"

Nanny Li quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Princess, the old lady has just gotten better, and you've been busy all day, so go back and rest early."

Ruan wanted to say more, but looking at the old lady's livid face, she could only leave in disappointment.

He muttered unconvincedly, "What can I not listen to? More people means more ideas."

She just couldn't understand. She was just a lowly maid, without a father or a mother. If she was beaten to death in a mass grave and burned to death, wouldn't that be the end of it all?

Xiao Yunxi felt the same way. She really didn't understand why she was hesitating.

"Yun Xi, you have been married into the palace for almost three years."

The old lady sat up straight, "Come sit next to Grandma."

Xiao Yunxi walked to the chair below the old lady and sat down, "Old lady, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"Jing Ting is confused and has done too many things to let you down." The old lady sighed, "But it takes a hundred years to be able to ride the same boat together, and a thousand years to be able to sleep on the same pillow. After all, you are husband and wife."

"In the past few years, you have managed the palace in an orderly manner, educated Lu Zhan very well, and even took the initiative to find a concubine for Jing Ting."

"You are generous, gentle, virtuous and kind."

"Grandmother hopes that you can give Jing Ting another chance. As for Lin Wan'er, don't take it to heart. She won't get in your way."

"Hehe." Xiao Yunxi chuckled twice, "Old Madam, are you not going to execute Lin Wan'er?"

"Of course you have to die, but you can't just die like this." The old lady looked at her. "Although Jing Ting is disappointed with Lu Ze and Lu Yuan, blood is thicker than water. If you kill Lin Wan'er like this, there is no guarantee that there will not be trouble for you and Jing Ting."

"Don't interfere in the affairs of that slave girl. I will spread the news that the cousin of the Lin family died suddenly, and there will be another slave girl of the Lin family in the mansion from now on."

"You and Jingting still have a long time to live together. Don't worry about something that is not presentable."

Xiao Yunxi had expected this result a long time ago. As long as Lu Ze and Lu Yuan were still alive, the old lady and Lu Jingting would not kill Lin Wan'er so easily.

It’s good this way. Becoming Lu Jingting’s concubine is the beginning of Lin Wan’er’s retribution.

Xiao Yunxi responded calmly, "Since the old lady has made the decision, I have nothing to say. However, the death penalty can be pardoned, but the living crime is hard to be forgiven. If we just let it go like this, what if the maids in the mansion follow suit in the future?"

"What do you think?"

"Tattoo the word 'traitor' on the cheek to serve as a warning to others."

Seeing the old lady nod, Xiao Yunxi said nothing more and stood up to return to Feiyu Pavilion.

"Yun Xi."

The old lady looked at her back and suddenly said, "But Jingting did something wrong. Helping Jingting is helping yourself. The title of Zhennan Prince's Consort is beneficial to you. Go back and think about it carefully."

Xiao Yunxi didn't look back, paused for a moment and then left.

The old lady suddenly started coughing, and Nanny Li hurriedly came in with medicine, "Do you want to ask the doctor to take a look?"

"It doesn't matter."

"Madam, do you really want to tattoo Lin Wan'er as the princess said?"

"What else?" The old lady drank the medicine. "Jing Ting has no interest in her anyway, so just treat her as a dog in your house. Go find a reliable doctor outside and prescribe a sterilizing medicine for that bitch to drink, just in case."

"Go find that man again and get some slow-acting poison."

Nanny Li was shocked, "You are going to..."

"Even though even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, Lu Ze and Lu Yuan are Jing Ting's stumbling blocks. With them around, Jing Ting and Yun Xi will always have a hurdle they can't overcome."

"Besides, no matter whether Lin Wan'er dies or not, how she dies, or where she dies, they will hate Yun Xi, and even Jing Ting."

"That's not to the point of..."

The old lady's eyes were full of murderous intent. "No need to say more, go ahead."

"...yes..."
