A large group of people followed behind.

Lu Yi walked in front, and she really felt like the mistress of the house.

It’s better to have power!

So what method can be used to gain real power in the backyard of the Duke's Mansion?

Lu Yi thought of Lu Hui again.

In the previous life, how did the eldest sister become the mistress of the Duke’s Mansion?

Did Mrs. Du also bully the eldest sister in this way?

Did you also poison your eldest sister?

How did the eldest sister deal with it?

Thinking of this, I unknowingly arrived at the Huahuiyuan of the Du family.

If it was the eldest sister, what would she say when she went in? How would she start?

As soon as Lu Yi stepped onto the threshold of the courtyard, a maid stopped her and said, "Madam, you are listening to the steward's reply. Please wait a moment while I go and report."

Lu Yi stepped back and said, "Okay, thank you, Ma'am."

When saying this, Lu Yi felt as if she was possessed by her elder sister.

Because this was really the first time she said such gentle, polite and humble words.

Lu Yi and a group of people waited at the gate of the courtyard and waited for an hour.

Perhaps, the eldest sister in the previous life had also been treated coldly like this in Mrs. Du’s courtyard.

But the eldest sister must have used her wisdom to solve this situation.

She is not the eldest sister, she is Lu Yi.

How should Lu Yi deal with the current situation where she has to wait and doesn't know how long she will have to wait?

"Sister, do you know the Thirty-Six Stratagems?"

"I know. Of the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one!"

"anything else?"

"What else? Didn't I tell you that among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one?"

"Sister is so stupid, she doesn't even know the Thirty-Six Stratagems!"

"A Zhao! How dare you make fun of me like this? I will punish you by making me copy the Disciple Rules ten times and apologize to me!"

"I'm sorry, sister!"

"Humph!"

"My son, you don't have to take the imperial examination, so what's the big deal?"

Lu Yi recalled the past.

Her mother said that she didn't have to take the imperial examination, so she didn't have to suffer the hardship of studying.

Knowing a few words is already a great achievement.

However, after being ridiculed by Ah Zhao that time, she still secretly looked for the Thirty-Six Stratagems to read.

That’s right, among the Thirty-Six Stratagems, there must be one that suits her current situation, right?

Lu Yi remembered that there was an imperial censor living next to the Duke's Mansion.

So he closed his eyes and leaned towards Daqing.

Daqing's hair stood on end with nervousness.

The lady didn't know that he was actually a man, but he knew that the lady was the woman the master cared about most. How dare he be so close to the lady?

Da Qing gently straightened Lu Yi, and then said to the maid beside her: "Come quickly, two people help the Crown Prince's wife, the Crown Prince's wife is tired."

The obedient little maid came over and supported Lu Yi.

Lu Yi winked at Da Qing and mouthed, "Shout louder."

Then he fell down.

Da Qing immediately shouted at the top of his voice: "Go get the imperial physician! The Crown Prince's wife has fainted!"

Da Qing asked the maid to help Lu Yi up while shouting, "Quickly call the imperial physician! The Crown Prince's wife stood in the Duke's wife's yard for too long and fainted!"

With such a loud voice, are you afraid that the censor's wife next to you can't hear you?

Daqing wanted to shout so that the wife of the censor next to him could hear it.

Da Qing was still shouting, "Madam, please let the Crown Prince's wife in quickly! The Crown Prince's wife hadn't eaten anything in the morning and was blocked by the maids to come here. She has been waiting for nearly two hours to see you, and now she has fainted due to exhaustion! Go and call the imperial physician! Crown Prince's wife! You must hold on!"

Da Qing couldn't wait to jump onto the roof and shout.

The people on the roof who came to protect Lu Yi were surprised. It turned out that Qing Yi was so good at acting. He acted so well as if it were real. If they hadn't seen the Crown Prince's wife winking at Qing Yi, they would have thought that the Crown Prince's wife had really fainted.

Mrs. Du was also afraid that the censor next to her would find out that she was being harsh towards her daughter-in-law.

Immediately send someone to call Lu Yi in.

Meijuan ran out and first stopped Daqing: "Okay, stop shouting, help the Crown Prince's wife in quickly. Madam doesn't even know that the Crown Prince's wife is waiting here. She has already asked someone to prepare food. Help the Crown Prince's wife in and enjoy it."

Lu Yi was indeed hungry, but she didn't dare to eat the food here at the Du family.

She could only "wake up" slowly and walked into Mrs. Du's hall with the help of a maid.

Mrs. Du and Lu Yi had already fallen out, and they both knew very well whether Madam Du was used to take the blame.

They know it, but others don't.

Such as the maids and servants following behind Lu Yi, and the housekeeper standing in the hall answering questions.

For example, those in the backyard of the Duke's Mansion are not as high-ranking as their masters.

Mrs. Du looked at Lu Yi who was pretending to be weak, and thought to herself: I really underestimated Lu Yi. After not seeing her for a few days, she has learned to bully others.

Lu Yi was indeed faking the power of the Censor's Wife.

As soon as she sat down, Lu Yi spoke weakly, "Mother, it's November today. Every branch and courtyard is asking me for the monthly interest. My people went to the account office to withdraw money, but the account office didn't recognize my card. Mother, do you want my dowry money?"

What Lu Yi used is called creating something out of nothing.

Mrs. Du wanted to get angry. The Duke's Mansion was so big, and the emperor's annual rewards were enough for the whole mansion to live on for several lifetimes. How could she be interested in the mere morsels that Lu Yi brought as a dowry?

But it would be embarrassing to do so in front of so many servants.

So she forced a smile and said, "Yier, you are joking. Why would mother want your dowry money? Mother has been feeling unwell these past few days, so it is inevitable that she has neglected some things. Today, she has just gotten better and is dealing with some accumulated matters. I didn't expect you to come here so anxiously to question me."

Mrs. Du's words were accusing Lu Yi of being unfilial.

She had been feeling unwell for a few days, but Lu Yi not only did not come to take care of her, he didn't even say a word of sympathy. Instead, he blamed her as soon as he came.

In this case, the servants would think that Lu Yi, the Crown Prince's wife, was doing something wrong.

Lu Yi said, "It was Yi'er who was negligent. It's just that Yi'er really didn't know that her mother was in poor health. After she was put in solitary confinement last time, she found that the food was poisoned. Yi'er has lost her appetite recently and is filled with fear."

Is there poison in the food?

This is a fact. Although several maids took the blame in the end, the maid who was beaten to death said with her own mouth that she was the one who poisoned the Crown Prince's wife. This statement at least proves that Lu Yi had eaten poisoned food.

Mrs. Du didn't know how to answer.

Lu Yi continued, "Yier has been out seeing a doctor these days because she ate poisonous food. She was afraid that the poison gas would pass to her mother, so she didn't come to disturb her."

Lu Yi's words have the same effect as Du's.

But Lu Yi was poisoned.

This is obviously more serious than just feeling unwell.

The servants all felt that the Crown Prince's wife was very pitiful.

As for Mrs. Du, her daughter-in-law was poisoned, and it was her personal nanny who poisoned her. Not only did she not comfort her, nor did she ask the imperial physician to see her daughter-in-law, she also took the opportunity to fall ill herself!
