People who think I'm ugly are so sweet

After all, Xu Taihe did not divorce his wife, and Mrs. Zhang was sent to a villa in the suburbs of Beijing.I heard from the servants that every night, she would cry loudly or laugh strangely in the room, obviously she had gone crazy.Xu Xuanying also invited a doctor for her. The doctor said that what she was suffering from was dementia, and the medicine was useless. I am afraid that she will pass like this in this life.Xu Xuanying couldn't bear to see her mother like this, so she begged Xu Taihe to be kind several times and let him take Mrs. Zhang back to the mansion to rest, but Xu Taihe stopped her.

"I reserved her position as the wife of the Xu family because of the face of you and your grandfather." Xu Taihe said indifferently, "In the future, just treat her as a mother without her."

Xu Xuanying has never returned home since then.A few days later, the staff of the Jiaofang Division came to the door and said that Xu Xuanying had lived in the Jiaofang Division for a few days and owed several hundred taels of silver.Xu Taihe considers himself to be a Qingliu family, when he suffered such humiliation, he immediately used family law on Xu Xuanying, and ordered his servants to look after him, and in the future, he was not allowed to go anywhere except the mansion and the Imperial Academy.

After Mrs. Zhang was sent away, some of the servants in Shi'an Court were sent out to sell out of the mansion, and some were assigned to other courtyards to do some chores.Mrs. Xie was released from the confinement and regained the right of housekeeper.The servants who had something good to do had secretly discussed that Mrs. Xie had finally made it through and became the de facto mistress of Xu's mansion. When Mrs. Zhang died of illness in Biezhuang, she would be the justifiable head of the house.

Although Xu Anning was sick in bed, it was impossible for her to be completely unaware of such a major change in her family. Xu Xilu thought that it would be better to tell her the truth himself than to let his servants gossip.He purposely waited for Xu Anning to be in a good mood and body, and then confessed everything.He originally thought that Xu Anning would be heartbroken and in pain like a knife, but he didn't expect her to just smile weakly, "Actually, I already knew that it was the second sister who did it, I just didn't want to believe it."

Xu Xilu raised his eyebrows lightly, "So, you know the motive of her poisoning?"

Xu Anning nodded.

Xu Xilu almost laughed out of anger, "Then why didn't you say it?"

"I dare not." Xu Anning said in a low voice, "I'm afraid that if this matter is told, not only the second sister, but also the second brother...you will also be implicated."

Xu Xilu's expression changed slightly, "What does this have to do with me?"

Xu Anning knew that he couldn't hide the matter anymore, so he sighed and said, "Second Brother, do you still remember the Moon Festival last year?"

After hearing the ins and outs of the matter, Xu Xilu felt that his three views were about to be subverted, "You mean, today, today, the person you want...is me?"

With a creak, the gate of Zhaoren Palace opened heavily and slowly.The sudden light made Shen Manan feel extremely dazzling, she turned her head away, and waited for the hall to return to darkness before looking at the people who came.

"Eunuch Liu?!" Shen Manan stumbled towards Liu Jinzhong, full of expectation: "Is the emperor going to let me out?" She looked behind Liu Jinzhong, "Did the emperor come in person?"

After being imprisoned for a few days, Shen Manan is completely different from the gentle and quiet Concubine Shen Shu in the past. She is still wearing the clothes she wore when she was restrained by the emperor, which is wrinkled and dirty. .

Liu Jinzhong has been in the deep palace for decades, and he has long cultivated a heart of stone. Seeing Shen Manan like this, he was not moved. "The emperor has a decree—Shu Concubine Shen's misbehavior, she is very jealous and disturbs the palace. From today onwards, she will be deprived of her concubine's position and reduced to a groomer, and she will not be allowed to leave Zhaoren Palace for no reason."

"No, no!" Shen Manan was trembling all over, "Eunuch Liu, there must be some misunderstanding, I want to see the emperor, I want to make it clear to him face to face!"

"Misunderstanding?" Liu Jinzhong shook his head, "Shen Xiurong, you poisoned Concubine Xu Yuan and caused her to lose sight, but there are all witnesses and evidence, so what misunderstanding can there be?"

"But, it was the emperor back then, the emperor told me..."

Liu Jinzhong interrupted her abruptly: "The emperor asked you to poison Concubine Xu Yuan?"

Shen Man'an was taken aback for a moment, then said in awe: "No, but the emperor clearly meant that..."

Liu Jinzhong said seriously, "Shen Xiurong, you have made such a big mistake, the emperor just deprived you of the concubine's position and grounded you, it is an extra kindness. If you talk nonsense again, if it reaches the emperor's ears, I'm afraid your words Life is almost impossible to save."

"Why, why is it like this..." Shen Manan shed tears tremblingly, "Your Majesty, you...you have lied to An'er so badly!" She was crying, and suddenly thought of something, and grabbed Liu Jinzhong's arm , "Where is the queen mother? Where is my aunt? She will come to save me, right...and my mother, she will definitely not let me go!"

"The slaves don't know about the Queen Mother." Liu Jinzhong pulled off his sleeves, "Shen Xiurong, take care of yourself."

In Fenghua Palace, the Duan family twitched and said sadly: "Queen Mother, our An'er, is there really nothing we can do?"

Ever since such a big event happened in the harem, Empress Dowager Shen hasn't had a peaceful night's sleep, and her temper has become even more irritable.Duan Clan cried here for a long time, she had already lost her former patience, and said coldly: "An'er poisoned Concubine Xu Yuan, there is solid evidence, this stupid child actually admitted it himself, how can you ask the Ai family to help her?"

"But Queen Mother, you also know that An'er has always been the most sensible and obedient child, how could she suddenly do such a cruel thing to the concubine? Someone must have framed her on purpose, and the Queen Mother must be careful!"

Empress Dowager Shen looked solemn, "If it is as you said, this person is too powerful. I didn't do anything, and made one of the emperor's two concubines blind and the other useless. With such a scheming plan, I can't help myself. "

"Queen Mother, just save An'er." Duan begged, "Master has always loved this little daughter very much. When he heard the news, he was so anxious that he couldn't even eat. If I stopped her, he would have gone to the palace to intercede with the emperor." It's-"

"It's absolutely impossible!" Empress Dowager Shen suddenly raised her voice, which shocked Duan Shi. "Nowadays, the Shen family is already a big tree attracting wind, so many eyes are staring at it. It's not up to the front court to talk about the matter of the harem. Brother must not let those officials get caught because of this matter."

Duan cried even more when she heard this, "Then we just leave An'er alone?"

Empress Dowager Shen pondered for a long time, and finally sighed, "Aijia will let An'er live without worrying about food and clothing, and that's all... that's all."

The story of Shen Xiurong poisoning Concubine Xu Yuan was widely circulated in the palace.Shen Xiurong was thrown into a dark palace and had no hope of being favored again; although Concubine Xu Yuan survived, she was blind and could not serve the Holy Majesty anymore.It is embarrassing that the two concubines who were once favored for a while ended up like this in the end.

Xu Qingyang lay on the bed with his eyes open blankly.In the house, half of the things were smashed by Xu Qingyang, and all the surviving things were moved out.After an unknown amount of time, Xu Qingyang heard footsteps from far to near, and sat up abruptly, "Your Majesty, is it Your Majesty?"

Peilan said softly: "Your Majesty, you are a slave."

Xu Qingyang was disappointed for a while, and she sat back slowly, "Is that bitch dead?"

"Ms. Shen has been demoted to Xiurong, and is confined to Zhaoren Palace."

"Is this the end?" Xu Qingyang said while grabbing the quilt on his body with one hand, and pointed to his eyes with the other, "Shen Man'an is still alive after this palace has become such a ghost?!"

Pei Lan smiled softly, "Madam, Third Miss Xu is in the same situation as you, aren't you also living a good life?"

It took Xu Qingyang a long time to realize what Peilan said, "Why, now that I am blind, even a lowly maid like you came to see me making jokes? I am your master after all, whether you are dead or alive, It's just a matter of my palace's words!" Xu Qingyang shouted, "Come on, take my whip...Come on!"

"Your Majesty, let's save your strength and take care of your illness." Pei Lan said indifferently, "Today, Pei Lan is here to bid farewell to Your Majesty."

"Farewell?" Xu Qingyang stared, turned his face towards Pei Lan, and said ferociously: "Without my consent, how dare you leave?"

"Director Liu has appointed the servant as the maid in charge of the Palace of Qinzheng. From now on, Peilan will be the one serving the emperor. After the empress, I am afraid that the voice of the servant will never be heard again."

"No, it's impossible! You bastard is talking nonsense here, I, I'm going to tear your mouth apart!" Xu Qingyang struggled to get out of bed, her body was limp, and there was no one to help her, bang She fell to the ground with a loud sound, but even so, she still cursed Pei Lan fiercely, "You are ungrateful and betray your old master, you must die a terrible death!"

Peilan looked at Xu Qingyang who was lying on the ground, and said almost pityingly: "Mother, it's not yours, why do you want to fight for it? Originally, you could stay in Xu's residence, be protected by your parents, and marry a man of your choice in the future. But you are too greedy, so you have to come into this deep palace. From the very beginning, the emperor knew what kind of thing you are, and he only kept you in order to check and balance the Shen family. Everything in this game of chess is under the emperor's control , you are just a small pawn, don't you understand even now?"

At this moment, Xu Qingyang couldn't listen to anything, and murmured to himself: "You wait, you wait for me! When the emperor comes to see me, I will let the emperor chop off your head and play it as a ball for me. The emperor said that he loves Bengong's eyes the most, as he said..."

Pei Lan shook his head, "The servant girl is retiring, Concubine Yuan."

In March, spring is warm and flowers are blooming, everything is recovering, and winter is really over.

A mountain of peach blossoms bloomed on Mount Qingcheng, and when the spring breeze hit, the petals were like rain, and the fluttering fluttered, causing many pilgrims to stop and linger.

Mrs. Xie offered incense and prayed for Xu and Xie's family in the front hall, while Xu Xilu and Xie Qingshen were waiting for her at the door.Today's Xu Xilu was dressed in snow-white, standing under the peach tree, pink and white petals fell on his shoulders, making him even more glamorous but not coquettish, coquettish but not charming.

"The peach blossoms are really blooming." Xie Qingxin said comfortably, "It's good to go out for a walk once in a while. Xilu, don't you think so?"

"kindness……"

Recently, many things happened in the Xu family, and Xu Xilu, who was always open-minded and optimistic, also fell into depression, holding back in the house and refusing to come out.After Xie Qingshen learned about it, she used the name of accompanying Xie to Mount Qingcheng to pull him out to relax.Facing such beautiful scenery, Xu Xilu still looked lost and absent-minded. Xie Qingshen couldn't help but said: "Xilu, to put it bluntly, the messy things in Xu's mansion are far inferior to my Xie's mansion. I can think about it, why should you bother?" Put on a bitter face?"

Xu Xilu sighed, "You don't understand." Everything in the world is linked together.If he hadn't gone out in women's clothing on the Moon Festival to show off, Xu Qingyang would not have entered the palace, Xu Anning would not have been poisoned by her, and nothing would have happened.After all, everything started because of him.

Xie Qingxin refused to accept, "How can I understand if you don't tell me?"

Xu Xilu broke off a peach branch, played with it in his hand, and suddenly said: "Xie's family is in Puzhou, does it have a village full of peach blossoms?"

Xie Qingxin wondered, "You know all of this?"

"I don't know how the peach blossoms are blooming there. It must be more beautiful than the ones here." Xu Xilu looked at the peach branches in his hand and said softly, "I really want to see them."

"That's easy to handle. I will take you to Puzhou for a few days as my brother when I have time!"

Xu Xilu shook his head, "I can't go."

While the two were talking, a man in a well-dressed suit walked towards them and said to Xu Xilu, "Mr. Xu."

Xu Xilu had never seen this person before, "Yes, may I ask you?"

The man clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Xu, my master is here to invite you."

"Who is your son?" Xie Qingxin asked.

"My son asked me to convey a poem to Mr. Xu - Yun Xiang clothes Hua Xiangrong."
