Pampered and fierce wife: Reborn daughter-in-law has a strategy

Talking about the past, the face of the eldest princess showed a complex expression, including emotion, nostalgia, and regret. When these emotions returned and the consciousness returned to the present, the only thing left on the face of the eldest princess was Burning anger: "Zhu!"

It's just that no matter how royal the eldest princess is, she cannot directly interfere in the affairs of other people's ancestral halls without any reason.

It's okay if there's a reason for the incident, but if you rush in and ask questions without any reason, it will only cause huge panic.

The ancestral hall is a forbidden place for a family. Even the royal family cannot break into the ancestral hall of other families without any reason.

"Princess," Li Xinran said, "Since my daughter began to suspect this matter, I have been investigating and found some clues these days."

"Say." The eldest princess's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.

"Although Mrs. Zhu sold the old people around Grandma Chu under various names after marrying her grandfather, we still found an old man, but she worked in the kitchen and didn't know much about many things. She just I vaguely heard that Grandma Chu would always be angry because of the arrival of the Zhu family. Whenever Grandma Chu was angry, a nanny named Jiao would come to the kitchen and make her a cherry cheese. Later, Grandma Chu After passing away in childbirth, Nanny Jiao became the Nanny next to Mrs. Zhu."

After speaking for such a long time, Li Xinran took a few breaths, calmed down, and continued: "Until the old man was sent away, Grandma Jiao was still domineering around the Zhu family. But I have never done it since I was a child. Having met this Aunt Jiao, my father said that he did not remember that there was such a Nanny named Jiao next to Mrs. Zhu, so I think the identity of this Aunt Jiao is very interesting."

The eldest princess nodded slowly: "I also have the impression of what you said. There is indeed such a nun named Jiao beside Tinglan. It is said that she was the nun who was given to her by her mother's family as a dowry, because she grew up with her. Something happened at Mammy's house, and Ting Lan didn't tell me the details."

"And Mrs. Zhu is Grandma Chu's maternal cousin. In other words, Grandma Jiao may be closer to Mr. Zhu."

The eldest princess nodded: "Tinglan's mother's surname is Zhu."

Li Xinran slowly exhaled a breath: "If I guess correctly, Grandma Jiao is a nail sent by Grandma Chu's mother's family, just to pave the way for the Zhu family."

"But why do they do this?" The eldest princess asked with a frown: "It makes no sense."

"Yes," Li Xinran looked at the eldest princess and smiled, "No matter how noble the granddaughter is, she is not as close as the granddaughter."

The eldest princess clenched her fists tightly. She remembered how haggard Chu Tinglan was before giving birth, and how he hesitated to speak when facing her. Her Tinglan was so smart, she might have guessed something, but she just didn't say it. , maybe she also knows that if she says it, she will definitely stand up for her.

But she didn't have any evidence at the time. Although she would stand up for her after she said it, the eldest princess used her power to suppress others, which was not good for her reputation. Moreover, Li Chun was also at the border at that time. As his rearguard, she must first stabilize the situation. living.Maybe she also wanted to find evidence, but before she could find it, a dystocia killed her.

Emotions surged in her heart, and the eldest princess felt a pain in her hands, and her long nails were broken.

The severe pain made the eldest princess's mood stabilize a lot.

"But these are all your speculations. If you want to find the truth and get justice, you can only ask for evidence." The eldest princess closed her eyes and looked at Li Xinran calmly again.

Li Xinran slightly bent over and lowered his head: "That's why we need the most powerful witness of the year."

"Who?"

"Qiaoer."

"..." When the eldest princess heard the name, she was stunned for a moment and then suddenly laughed, "Yes! Qiaoer, Tinglan trusted Qiaoer the most back then. As long as we find Qiaoer, we will know what happened back then!" Where is Qiaoer?" The eldest princess asked eagerly.

Li Xinran lowered her head and did not dare to look at the eldest princess: "Back to the princess, Sister Qiaoer has not been found yet. Our investigation found that at that time, the Zhu family wanted to sell Sister Qiaoer to Nuanxiang Pavilion, but not long after, the late Emperor Nan Hunting, the streets were cleared, Sister Qiaoer took advantage of the chaos and ran away."

Li Xinran told everything she heard from Yingge, but she didn't quite understand how Qiaoer could run away when Nanshou cleared the streets.

Li Xinran didn't understand, but the eldest princess understood that it was a small-scale chaos.

At that time, the late emperor was hunting south. The road had been cleared, but he encountered an assassin on the way to the hunting ground. The assassin missed a hit and did not stay. He turned around and ran away. The guards chased him. After chasing him, he entered the alley. , maybe the assassin ran in the direction of Nuanxiang Pavilion, and the guards started to investigate door to door, which caused chaos. Maybe at that time, Qiaoer found an opportunity to run away.

"It's just that since then, we have no news about Sister Qiao'er." Li Xinran said regretfully.

The eldest princess also sighed and was about to say something. Suddenly she came back to her senses and said with a smile: "Silly boy, you can't call me Sister Qiao'er. Now you are still Aunt Qiao'er." Speaking of old friends, the eldest princess said The expression on the princess's face became much gentler.

"Okay, don't worry about the rest. I will send someone to find him. Back then, the whole city was under martial law and not many people could find Qiaoer. I just hope..."

I just hope they don't regard Qiao'er as an accomplice of the thief.

But the words were too desperate, so the eldest princess shut her mouth halfway.

"Princess, Princess Anyi is here to visit." While the two were silent, Aunt Jing next to the eldest princess knocked on the door.

The eldest princess glanced at Li Xinran and motioned for her to go to bed and lie down first. Li Xinran nodded silently, got up and walked slowly back to the bed.

The eldest princess stood up and said in a loud voice: "Here comes someone."

After the door opened, the maids filed in. Aunt Jing walked up to the eldest princess and bowed.

The eldest princess held Nanny Jing's hand and looked back at Li Xinran, who was lying on the bed with a weak look on her face: "I will remember your matter."

Li Xinran said weakly: "Thank you very much, Princess."

The eldest princess nodded and led the people out of the room.

After the eldest princess left with her people, Yingge came in.

"Miss," Yingge approached and saw Li Xinran's blushing cheeks, hesitantly said, "Miss... you..."

Li Xinran turned over and sat up, looking at Yingge with a smile: "I confessed to the eldest princess, Yingge," Li Xinran looked at her with a smile, "I have worked hard for you during this time."

Yingge's eyes suddenly turned red: "Miss, you are obviously the one who has endured the hardship!"

Li Xinran stood up and patted Yingge on the shoulder: "Now we are waiting for the news of the eldest princess. If we deal with the Zhu family as soon as possible, we can return to the border earlier."

"Yeah!" Yingge laughed with red eyes.
