The beauty of the Hou family and the king's plan

The old lady lying on the ground raised her head and looked at Shen Baozhao with horror.

The person sitting in front of her was no longer the gentle and weak granddaughter, but a devil-like beast.

No wonder things have been going wrong in the Bo's house since the second girl got married, it turns out that she was the one causing trouble!

But she didn't dare say anything bad to him anymore. The pain she had just felt was so deep in her bones that it was suffocating to think about it.

"Ding", Shen Baozhao closed the lid of the teacup as if impatient.

The old lady shuddered all over and began to speak in a halting manner.

"Fourth girl, it's really not your grandmother who wants to harm your mother. The Bo family is also forced to do so.

If the emperor wants his subjects to die, they must die. If the emperor wants your mother's life, there is nothing we can do."

Shen Baozhao snorted coldly, "Don't say these high-sounding words. Just tell me the whole story."

The old lady did not dare to defend the Bo family any more. She continued stumblingly, "Ten years ago, the Concubine Shu was still a Concubine Shu, and was pregnant with the Sixth Prince.

Once, your aunt and I went to the palace to visit, and we saw that the emperor was also at the Empress Shufei's place, as if he was waiting for us.

And he seemed to ask about your mother's dowry when she married into the Earl's Mansion, and your grandmother naturally told him the truth.

The dowry your mother brought into the Earl's Mansion at that time amounted to as many as 128 loads, among which were many rare and unique items.

I don't know how, but the next day the emperor summoned your grandfather to the palace and agreed to use your mother's life in exchange for the position of concubine."

Did His Majesty take a fancy to my mother's dowry? That shouldn't be the case! If His Majesty coveted it, it would be unlikely to fall into Wang's hands.

So what His Majesty wants is not a dowry? Shen Baozhao thought, what is it?

"What did the emperor say to grandfather?" Shen Baozhao stared at the old lady sharply.

The old lady was frightened when she saw Shen Baozhao looking at her. She hurriedly explained, "I really don't know. Your grandfather never told me.

He just asked me to cooperate with the people from the palace to put the medicine into Xueyan's vagina, and your mother would have an attack after taking it.

We had no control over the birth, and it was delivered by people from the palace. I don’t know what they did, but your mother died of hemorrhage.”

Shen Baozhao frowned, "What about the people who serve my mother?"

"I originally wanted to send them all away, but people from the palace said that we couldn't leave any trouble behind. So they were all executed." After the old lady said this, she lowered her head.

When Tang heard this, she stood up and walked step by step to the old lady.

“So when Juan’er saw you doing evil things, you poisoned her?

Are you going to let her live a foolish life for the rest of her life?"

Tang usually kept a low profile, and the old lady was not afraid of her. But at this moment, Tang's gnashing words still made the old lady shudder.

"No, no, it was the maid in the palace who wanted to poison the sixth girl as well.

I took into consideration that the sixth girl was a descendant of the Bo family and begged for mercy, so I only gave her a poison that would make her stupid."

Tang kicked the old lady, "You mean I should thank you?"

"You old, ruthless woman, why don't you just die!"

Whenever Tang thought of the suffering her youngest daughter had endured over the years, she couldn't stop the hatred in her heart. She squatted beside the old lady and punched her again and again.

Nanny Liang and Bixiao on the side hurriedly grabbed Tang who was about to lose control.

The old lady fell completely to the ground, unable to get up.

"Qingkong, wake up Nanny Lin and help the old lady wash up. By the way, ask Xia Song to go to the study and invite the old uncle to come to me."

Shen Baozhao paused, "Just say that the old lady is not feeling well and wants to see the old uncle."

Although all the maids and old women in Rongde Hall had been knocked down, there was a lot of noise in the yard when the old lady was frightened.

Tomorrow morning, the old man will certainly know what happened today.

It would be better to take the initiative and invite the old man who doesn't know what's going on to come first. Take the initiative into your own hands.

Shen Baozhao thought about it for a long time. The old lady only told him the whole story. The most crucial question, the reason why the emperor wanted to kill his mother, was still unknown.

Although we know that the emperor is the murderer of our mother, if the reason is always buried by time, it will undoubtedly be a time bomb.

For now, the old uncle should be the one who knows the most. No matter what, Shen Baozhao must meet him.

But before he came, Shen Baozhao said to Tang, who had already dressed up, "Aunt, the matter of Sixth Sister has been settled.

I'm afraid that until the person in the palace dies, Sixth Sister will have to ask her not to appear in public, otherwise she will probably get into trouble."

Tang covered her eyes with a handkerchief. She knew that what Shen Baozhao said made sense, so she nodded.

Shen Baozhao continued, "The old uncle will be here soon, so Aunt San doesn't have to stay with me."

Tang knew that Shen Baozhao was just being polite. It was obvious that this matter depended entirely on her strategy, and it was she who helped her understand the truth about Juan'er's poisoning.

Even if she stayed here, she couldn't help Shen Baozhao in any way. And now Shen Juan was only accompanied by Shen Chan, so she was worried.

After all, as Shen Baozhao said, even if Shen Juan recovers in the future, she must avoid appearing in public.

How to arrange it still requires careful consideration.

Besides, she also wanted to tell her husband, Mr. Shen San, everything.

Whenever she thought of her husband who had been running around for years and whose hair had turned white because of his little daughter's illness, she felt sad.

If possible, I really want to take my daughter with me to the post with my husband. The emperor is far away and maybe Juan'er can be happier and more free.

Not long after, Tang took Nanny Liang and left Rongde Hall.

When Nanny Lin saw the old lady lying on the ground, she was shocked. Just as she was about to scold Shen Baozhao, the old lady grabbed her hand tightly.

His voice was hoarse and he ordered in a low voice: "Hurry, help me lie down on the bed."

Shen Baozhao made her suffer a lot, and with Tang's punches and kicks, her waist could not even straighten up.

All the strength of the upper body was on Nanny Lin, and Nanny Lin was not young either, so she could not move the old lady by herself.

Shen Baozhao didn't intend to make things difficult for them at this moment, and ordered Bixiao to ask someone to help Nanny Lin.

Although the old lady was the final executor, she had no decision-making power. She was paralyzed in bed for the rest of her life, watching how the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion declined bit by bit.

Watching how the grandchildren she loved so much fell from their high positions one by one.

This is the greatest revenge on her, so killing her is not enough to vent the hatred!

And the old man is the one who is trying to get the skin of the tiger!

She stepped on her mother's corpse to send Concubine Shu to a high position. Aren't you afraid that the evil spirits will come to claim your life in your dreams at midnight?

For so many years, he kept his father in the dark and cruelly used the entire second house as a stepping stone for the first house.

As the helmsman, he is a very good sailor.

"Miss Fourth, the old uncle is here." Xia Song's voice interrupted Shen Baozhao's thoughts.
