After rebirth, she turned around and married the emperor's uncle and tore the scumbag apart

Madam He stared at her with cold eyes and said in a cold tone: "At the beginning of last year, when you married into our He family, a fifth-rank prison officer position became vacant in the Ministry of Justice.

According to common sense, my brother is fully qualified to be promoted from the sixth-rank archive manager to this position.

However, after you got married, his chances of promotion were withdrawn.

At the end of last year, the post of Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel also became vacant. With your father's qualifications and achievements over the years, he could have been promoted to fill the vacancy smoothly, but in the end he failed to do so!"

Qin Wan Ning retorted in confusion: "What does the court's affairs have to do with me?!"

Everyone held their breath, waiting for Mrs. He to explain the reason.

"Why?!" Madam He snorted coldly, "I didn't know the reason at first."

"Once, I happened to meet the wife of the Minister of Personnel at a family dinner. She told me privately that the emperor had already secretly conveyed his order to the Minister that the descendants of the Jia and He families could only hold a fifth-rank official position at most."

Madam He looked at Qin Wan Ning with a sinister look in her eyes: "It's all because of you. Your father, who is a first-rank general of the Western Expedition, has a large army under his command, so Your Majesty has to be on guard, so you made this decision!"

Su Lingyue didn't expect things to turn out like this! For a moment she didn't know what to say!

Qin Wan Ning's face was also filled with shock. Thinking of what her mother-in-law had done to her, she asked coldly, "Why didn't you tell me? If you had told me, I would never have stayed in the He Mansion and let you humiliate me like this!"

"You think I didn't say anything?!" Mrs. He sneered, "I told my father, but he told me not to mention it again!"

"I didn't expect you to do this!"

He Taifu couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and asked with disappointment in his eyes: "After you told me about this matter, I have discussed it with the first and second wives, as well as Yulin. They think that as long as you are loyal to the country, the size of the official position is nothing, and they have also told you, why are you still so upset!"

He Yulin immediately echoed, "That's right! Mother, as long as I can serve Daning, I don't care about any official position. How could you do something that would hurt Wan Ning?!"

He Wen also questioned in confusion: "Madam, I have comforted you about this matter, and you didn't say anything. Why are you like this again now!"

Faced with a situation where everyone was blaming her, Mrs. He could no longer suppress her inner anger.

She widened her eyes, glared at everyone present, and shouted in a trembling voice: "You only think about the He Mansion, but have any of you ever thought about my family? I only have this one brother, and he had a bright future, but because of me, he and his legitimate son have no future. Can you understand the guilt I feel every time I see him!"

After saying this, Mrs. He's face turned pale and desperate, her eyes were filled with endless grievance and unwillingness, and tears slid down her cheeks like a dam breaking.

"In fact, I didn't plan to kill Qin Wan Ning at the beginning. When she married into our He family and was diagnosed as unable to conceive and have children, I planned to let Yu Lin marry Ru'er as a concubine first. When Ru'er gave birth to a child, I would divorce Qin Wan Ning on the grounds that she couldn't have children, and let Ru'er become the main wife."

"Unexpectedly, she actually bewitched my son and caused him to resolutely refuse to take a concubine!"

She looked at Qin Wan Ning hatefully and said coldly, "Since you treat me like this, I can't keep you!"

He Yulin looked at Madam He and said firmly, "Mother, it was not Ah Ning's idea to refuse to take a concubine, but mine. Regardless of whether Wan Ning can have children or not, I will only marry her in this life. Why do you want to harm Ah Ning!"

Hearing He Yulin's words, Qin Wanning felt as if something hit her heart hard.

The past love and He Yulin's confrontation with Mrs. He reappeared in her mind.

He Wen looked at the person who had slept in the same bed with him for many years. At this moment, he felt that his wife, who had always been gentle and virtuous, looked so strange!

She had never told herself those thoughts.

And isn't it the same for me?

"Madam, because I comforted you before and you said you didn't care about it, but then there was something I never told you."

He Wen looked at his wife, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Since you told me that, I have asked your brother for his opinion on this matter, and he didn't care much about it."

Hearing what He Wen said, Mrs. He's eyes gradually widened, and a look of disbelief appeared on her face, "Impossible! You lied to me!"

He Wen said calmly: "If you don't believe me, you can go ask him."

Mrs. He slumped on the ground, looking ashen. It seemed as if all the things she had insisted on doing for a long time were unnecessary and a joke!

It was as if a piece of her heart had been dug out, taking away her self-esteem and hope as well!

“Wow…it’s actually like this!”

"It turns out that everything is unnecessary... I was just being sentimental and worrying too much!"

"Woooooooo..."

Her grief-stricken cries echoed throughout the hall, and her face was filled with despair!

Tutor He sighed silently, while Qin Wan Ning and He Yulin stared at her in a daze, feeling deeply moved!

He Wen looked at his lady like this, slowly knelt down in front of her, hugged her, and held her in his arms!

"Madam, I told you before not to keep things to yourself, but you didn't listen!" He Wen sighed, "It's my fault too. If I cared more about you and knew what you were thinking, this disaster wouldn't have happened."

He Wen patted her back gently and comforted her in a warm voice: "You and I are husband and wife. I will always be by your side. Fortunately, no disaster has occurred. Let's ask Wan Ning for forgiveness together, okay?"

Hearing this, Mrs. He grabbed He Wen's clothes, buried her head in He Wen's arms, and cried wildly!

In the bedroom of Qinfang Courtyard, Su Lingyue took Qin Wanning's hand, frowned and asked: "Wanning, what are your plans?"

Qin Wanning lowered her eyes, shook her head with a bit of confusion in her eyes, "I don't know."

She sighed, "It's true that they favored her when I was framed, but they chose me over the future of several generations. It would be a lie to say that I'm not touched, but their distrust is also true."

"I don't know what to do."

Qin Wan Ning twisted her handkerchief, frowning.

Su Lingyue was angry. If it were her, she would never want to see such a mother-in-law in her life.

But, this is Wan Ning's life, and she has no right to interfere.

The only thing she could do was to ask someone to protect her.

"Perhaps time will give you the answer. Why not give yourself a deadline and wait until I cure your illness before you decide."

Qin Wanning nodded.

When Su Lingyue came to the hall of He Mansion again, everyone had left. Only Tutor He and Xiao Yu were still sitting in the hall talking.

Seeing Su Lingyue coming, Xiao Yu nodded slightly to Tutor He, then stood up and walked towards her.

"Your Highness, have you reached an agreement?" Su Lingyue walked over and supported Xiao Yu and asked.

Xiao Yu said in a gentle voice: "We have discussed it, let's go back!"

Tutor He respectfully escorted Xiao Yu and Su Lingyue to the carriage.

I originally wanted Prince Su to deal with this daughter-in-law to prevent him from being estranged from his son and grandson.

But I didn't expect the result to be like this, and Prince Su had no intention of dealing with it at all.

It seemed as if she saw through his intention but just didn't expose it.

At this moment, he felt extremely ashamed and bowed again towards the slowly moving carriage.

In the carriage, Su Lingyue took Xiao Yu's arm and asked curiously, "How did you deal with the two witnesses?"

Xiao Yu said calmly: "The maid was beaten to death, and the doctor handed her over to Jingzhao Prefecture. She will be secretly executed soon."

"What about...Mrs. He?"

"Teacher He has taken away her housekeeper rights, and the second wife of the He family will be the housekeeper for the time being."

Su Lingyue sighed, feeling extremely depressed.

Sure enough, they will find a way to save Mrs. He. I wonder if Wan Ning can let go of the pain in her heart.

Su Lingyue took Xiao Yu's arm, leaned on his shoulder, and murmured, "At least they still have some conscience. They gave up their high position and generous salary and chose Wan Ning. I am surprised."

Xiao Yu curled his lips lightly, "Perhaps the emperor's will is just what they want."

Su Lingyue looked at Xiao Yu in confusion and asked, "Why?"

Xiao Yu lowered his eyes and watched her explain patiently, "A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. A pile that stands out on the shore will be washed away by the current. A position that is neither too high nor too low is just right to ensure a century of prosperity."

"I see!" Su Lingyue couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, "I thought it was for Wan Ning."

Xiao Yu smiled calmly and said, "They are not bad people, but they have their own concerns. However, when Miss Qin was infertile, He Yulin was able to stick to his original intention, which shows that he is a sincere person."

After hearing what Xiao Yu said, Su Lingyue felt a little relieved.

She doesn't care what happens to others, as long as Wan Ning is doing well.

Come to think of it, He Yulin has always been very good to Wan Ning, except for what happened today.

If they can resolve their misunderstandings, Wan Ning will surely be happy for the rest of her life!

Su Lingyue was on Xiao Yu's shoulder. Xiao Yu held her hand and held her soft little hand in his palm.

Everything that happens in the He Mansion is caused by Mrs. He’s suspicious, thoughtful, yet overly introverted character.

This shows how important honesty between husband and wife is.

But, she probably couldn't be honest with Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu has too many secrets, and she knows nothing about them.

However, the relationship between her and Xiao Yu was different from that between the He family. Xiao Yu's affairs were all related to the imperial court and had little to do with her.

What she had to do now was to find the spiritual fire grass as soon as possible and detoxify Xiao Yu.
