Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

"It seems that the Queen Mother plans to cut off her arm and give up on Xuanyao."

Although there was a smile on Xie Zhao's lips, there was ice cold deep in his eyes.

Even a biological niece who has been cultivated for more than ten years will be kicked away when she hinders the Queen Mother's interests.

Xie Zhao thought for a moment and gently touched Jiang Yuzhu's cheek with one hand.

There was an itching feeling on her cheeks. While she was sleeping, Jiang Yuzhu loosened her grip on Xie Zhao's hand, slapped it on her face, and muttered: "There are mosquitoes..."

After patting her for a while, Jiang Yuzhu twisted her body and turned her back towards Xie Zhao.

After being freed, Xie Zhao stood up and went straight outside, asking, "So, all the Xuan family's men have been withdrawn?"

"No."

The men were also very confused. On the surface, most of the Xuan family had given up looking for someone, and only a few people were still persisting. It seemed that this was not the Queen Mother's order.

Xie Zhao untied the cloth strips tied to his arms and stared at the tooth marks on his arms in trance. After a long while, he said, "Isn't this better? The Xuan family is in deep water, and it's easy to follow the rules."

The Empress Dowager's abandonment of Xuanyao in consideration of the overall situation will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the Xuan family members. Internal conflicts will accumulate to a certain extent and they will rebel.

"Choose an opportunity to withdraw our manpower, release the news about Xuanyao, and wait for the Xuan family to rescue Xuanyao."

Xie Zhao began to make arrangements to ensure that the partisanship in the capital became increasingly chaotic.

"Master, there is one more thing about Madam's cousin."

They laid an ambush nearby and found two men in black wandering around the thatched cottage in the mountains. These two men were very good in physical skills and were not Xuan family members. They seemed to be heading towards Luyun River.

"The strange thing is that Lu Yunxi did not leave. He stayed with Xuanyao and greeted Xuanyao."

We can't figure out Lu Yunxi's plan, and we can't find any useful information through investigation.

Xie Zhao said absently: "Since you can't find out, don't continue to investigate. Lu Yunxi is not simple. He disappeared and appeared suddenly. He must have something to ask for when he comes to Qingzhu Academy in Beijing."

Even if the investigation reveals clues, how do you know it wasn't Lu Yunxi who deliberately dropped the bait?

If you care too much, you will easily lose your judgment and be led by the nose.

"Watch what happens."

Xie Zhao had enough patience to wait for the fox to show its tail.

When she woke up, it was already noon the next day. Jiang Yuzhu had a full sleep and her mind was clear.

Hong Li came in with warm water and said with a slightly relieved heart: "Madam, you look good."

"That's natural."

Jiang Yuzhu also lamented her miraculous self-healing ability, and no villain should try to mess with her mentality.

There were no dazzling shops around, so she went for a walk in the mountains and picked fruits, and she was still as happy as ever.

Seeing this, Hong Li completely put his heart into his stomach and muttered: "Madam, the carriage has been waiting for a long time. It will take you back home after dinner."

Overnight, Xuanyao had been rescued by the Xuan family, and his wife no longer had to hide.

"There is news from Jiang Mansion. If you don't go back, everything will be really messed up."

After learning that Jiang Yuzhu had been kidnapped, Jiang Fulu had not gone to court early, and everyone in the Jiang family went crazy, biting anyone they saw.

Anyone with a grudge, even if they had a quarrel before, would be approached by the Jiang family, and they would not let him go.

"There is a commotion in the capital, and everyone is hating that the mastermind behind the scenes was hiding well and dragging innocent people into the water."

When Red Carp talked about gossip, it was called Shunliu. His little mouth kept talking, "Don't be in a hurry to pick fruits. It's more important to go back to Jiang Mansion to put out the fire."

Jiang Yuzhu sipped the dumpling soup, stopped and asked awkwardly: "Dad hasn't done anything yet, has he?"

No wonder that when Jiang Yuzhu died in the book, everyone in the Jiang family went crazy and criticized it. This was indeed something that his father, Jiang Fulu, would do.

Jiang Mansion was a gift from the late emperor. There is a flowing water in the back garden, which is sweet and clear.

The Queen Mother has been coveting the palace for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity to snatch it up and build it into a residence for the Xuan family.

To disgust the Queen Mother, the Jiang family would do whatever it takes, even if they injure the enemy a thousand times and injure themselves eight hundred.

Hong Li suppressed a smile and said: "No, I learned that you are safe, and the Queen Mother is sick from anger."

Jiang Yuzhu was very interested and her tone was slightly raised: "Oh?"

It had only been a day, and the Queen Mother had seen strong winds and waves, and she would not fall.

Seeing his wife's suspicion, Hong Li said in a more urgent tone: "It's true. There are rumors in the capital that the person who kidnapped you was the Queen Mother. In order to clear the suspicion, the Queen Mother deliberately pushed her niece Xuan Yao out."

When the news reached the harem, the Queen Mother was still holding on. After hearing the rumors, she became furious and fainted in anger.

The imperial doctor said that the Queen Mother was so angry that she might need to drink some decoction for a while to recover.

"The eldest young master beat Feng Qing, and the eldest young lady even revealed a secret."

But for more than a day, the capital was bustling with activity.

No one discussed Jiang Yuzhu's reputation, and all the high-ranking officials in the capital were sharing gossip.

Jiang Yuzhu gushed out a mouthful of soup, and quickly touched the corner of her lips with a handkerchief and said: "Hong Li, you have to be startled, and you can't finish it all at once. Why did you involve your sister-in-law?"

While other people are crazy, they act in their true colors, but the sister-in-law, Xiao Chen, is not like that. She is born with a doughy temper and is so soft that she would not even want to step on an ant to death.

"This morning, when the eldest young lady went out, she happened to encounter the Feng family's carriage. She didn't pay attention at first, but she realized that the carriage was heading towards the outer city."

Xiao Chen thought she could find some clues by following the Feng family's carriage, but when she arrived in the outer city, Wei Jing covered up the situation tightly and changed into an ordinary carriage.

This time, Xiao Chen became even more suspicious.

Wei Jing changed carriages, and Xiao Chen was worried that Jiang's carriage would be recognized, so she kept an eye on it, changed one and continued to follow.

Soon, Wei Jing left the city and went to a medical clinic in the outer city for treatment.

"When Wei Jing left, the eldest young lady sent her maid to lie, saying that Wei Jing's maid had lost the recipe and asked the old doctor to write another one. After careful inquiry, she found out that Wei Jing had been infected by Feng Qing!"

Jiang Yuzhu was very calm after hearing the news that exploded in Hong Li's mouth, and was not surprised at all.

Internal diseases are mentioned many times in the book, but the person suffering from them is the original owner.

On the way back after dinner, the carriage passed by the door of Lin's Mansion. The house was in chaos, and the maids and wives looked solemn and came and went in a hurry.

Hong Li lifted the car curtain and looked around, and soon spotted an acquaintance.

"Madam, I recognize the little maid in charge of cleaning in the Lin family. Why don't you go and find out?"

Judging from the situation, something must have happened.

Jiang Yuzhu poured a cup of tea, curiosity got the better of her, she waved her hand and said, "Go."

About a quarter of an hour later, the red carp returned in a hurry, and the carriage slowly set off on the road.

"Madam, Lin Moyue has taken refuge!"

The Lin family must have kept this kind of news a secret. The eldest maid knew the importance and kept a strict mouth.

The little maid that Hong Li met once helped her out of trouble and asked for the truth without any effort.

"Today, Mrs. Lin hosted a banquet for several ladies, intending to act as a matchmaker for Lin Xinyue, the eldest daughter who returned home with Li. Unexpectedly, she accidentally broke up the tryst between Lin Moyue and her foreign husband, and the two of them had physical intimacy!"

It is definitely impossible to hide it in full view of the public.

Mrs. Lin couldn't bear the stimulation and fainted on the spot, while Lin Moyue was so ashamed that she couldn't think about it and threw herself into confusion.

"Listen to what the little girl said, I'm gone."

Red Carp clicked his tongue twice, "That's why people can't do evil. Retribution comes so quickly."

"Do you think there is such a coincidence?"

The smile on Jiang Yuzhu's lips was very faint, and there was a hint of understanding in her eyes.

The Queen Mother discovered the scheming person behind the scenes, and this time she couldn't wait for the Queen to settle the score, so she acted very quickly.

Fighting for the position of queen, Xuanjia had no chance to take the table, so he simply overturned the table!
