Chapter 56 Wen Yue's Calculation
In Luoyunxuan, Mu Qingling was in a very good mood to settle the silver notes and several land deeds sent by the people Liu sent, not much or less, and just paid off the things on the list she gave to Liu. Although 60,000 taels were not particularly much, she didn't want to make the Liu mother and daughter just for nothing.
"Miss Third Miss, Aunt Wen is here." The maid outside the door hurriedly reported.
Mu Qingling put the silver deeds in her hand into the brocade box, raised her eyebrows and said, "Auntie Wen! She has been in great honor recently, why do you think about coming to me?"
Lu Zhu chuckled and said, "Maybe she is really wrong?"
"Ha, is that? That lady wants to see what she is doing and invite her in!" Mu Qingling has never underestimated Wen Yue. Wen Yue has only been in the mansion for two or three years, and can be said to be favored by Prime Minister Mu. The most important thing is that she hugged Mrs. Mu's thigh, so that even if Liu annoyed her, she would not dare to touch her. If she said that she was as harmless as she saw on the surface and had no intention, no matter whether others believed it or not, Mu Qingling would not believe it anyway.
Wen Yue walked in slowly under the guidance of her maid. I have to say that Wen Yue is a beautiful woman. Her carefully dressed makeup makes her look only twenty years old. She has a charming style between her eyebrows and eyes. Her long rose red dress makes her look even more charming and charming.
"I have met Miss Three." Wen Yue said softly with a happy body.
"Aunt Wen doesn't have to be too polite!" Mu Qingling looked at the woman in front of her lightly, pointed to the chair beside her, "If you have anything to do, please sit down and talk."
Wen Yue was not polite, walked to the side and sat down, chuckled, "How could I know that I am having something to do?"
Mu Qingling glanced at the door and raised her eyebrows and said, "Although I have been in the mansion for almost three years, I have no interaction. Today, my aunt suddenly came to visit, so Qingling couldn't let her think too much."
Wen Yue's smile froze slightly. Since she knew that Liu had turned the girl in front of her for a few times, she knew that she was not easy to fool. So, she did not directly refute Mu Qingling's words, but instead looked kind, "This is not the third lady who is getting out of the box just now. Since the prime minister has taught me the rights of the housekeeper, I naturally have to think about the third lady's marriage."
Mu Qingling raised her eyebrows. A concubine actually wanted to interfere in the marriage of his legitimate daughter. She was very proud of her. Mu Qingling believed that even if she was temporarily in charge of the rights of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister Mu would definitely only allow her to interfere in the trivial matters in the mansion. As for the rest, as Wen Yue's identity, it was not her turn.
"I won't bother my aunt in this matter."
Wen Yue froze. Unexpectedly, Mu Qingling would refuse so simply. She gritted her teeth in her hatred, but she still kept a smile on her face, "May I hope the third lady is going to deal with it! But the third lady should know the wife's situation..."
Mu Qingling's slender fingers casually depicted the patterns on the teacup and said lightly: "What's wrong with me, madam."
Wen Yue said strangely: "I have seen Miss San and Madam not seem to be incompatible with her. I wonder what Miss San thinks of her wife?"
Mu Qingling raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't expect her to ask this, saying, "My father has made a judgment on how good his wife is, so how can I be the younger generation be responsible for it."
"But I heard that Mrs. Lingtang..." Speaking of this, Wen Yue seemed to have some concerns and didn't say anything more.
Mu Qingling's expression remained unchanged and said lightly: "What do you think of Aunt Wen?" Mu Qingling refused to comment on Wen Yue's words. Wen Yue had only been in the mansion for only three years, and Yu passed away eight years ago. What can Wen Yue know? Even if she knows something, it is useless to Mu Qingling.
Even if she was eager to find out what happened back then, she would never listen to one-sided words from others. Moreover, this person was still thinking about exploiting it.
Wen Yue smiled slightly, observing Mu Qingling's expression change for a moment, and said, "Miss 3, don't be angry, I also heard the relationship between my wife and Lingtang by chance..."
Mu Qingling interrupted lightly, "Auntie Wen, I am not interested in knowing these things no matter what you know. But there is a saying, I have to remind you that Liu, as the head wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion, has not made a big mistake for a day, and her identity will not change for a day. In addition, families like the Prime Minister's Mansion need the most. "I glance at the sneaky figure outside the door, and a slight curve appeared on the corner of Mu Qingling's lips.
Wen Yue's expression changed slightly, and she thought to herself that she was really too anxious. Mu Qingling was right. Prime Minister Mu didn't say a day, and no one could shake Liu's status. Although she thought so in her heart, Wen Yue's face did not show any signs. "Miss Three may have misunderstood Wen Yue. Since the third lady is not very interested in Lingtang's affairs, Wen Yue will not disturb her."
After the words came, Wen Yue was slightly blessed and turned around and left. At the same time, the figure outside the door also quickly left.
"Miss, what does Aunt Wen mean?" Lu Zhu frowned slightly.
Mu Qingling snorted disdainfully, "What else can it mean? It's just sow discord." I have to say that Wen Yue's abacus was indeed good, and she wanted to use Mu Qingling's mother's affairs to provoke suspicion in her heart and use her hands to deal with Liu. Unfortunately, although Wen Yue's calculations were good, she acted too anxious after all. Not to mention whether she would be deceived, even Liu was not so easy to get it. Wen Yue is indeed good at disguising and smart, but her scheming methods are definitely not as good as Liu's who have controlled the Prime Minister's Mansion for nearly eight years. Moreover, although Prime Minister Mu is not very good at handling some things, he is a person who values face. It is absolutely impossible for Wen Yue, a small concubine, to climb to the position of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Lu Zhu opened his eyes wide in surprise, and he really couldn't believe that a woman who looked kind like Aunt Wen had such a scheming. Mu Qingling obviously knew what Lu Zhu was thinking and said lightly: "Lu Zhu, you have to know that often there are sharp poison needles hidden under her harmless appearance."
Luzhu was shocked, "I understand."
Mu Qingling's eyes slowly swept out the door and murmured: "It's time for the people in this yard to clean up."
Biwuyuan
Liu was lying on the soft collapse with a sick look on his face. When she thought of the things she sent to Mu Qingling not long ago, she felt her heart bleeding. She glanced coldly and knelt on the ground, trembling Hanyun, and said in a cold voice: "You dare to appear in front of my wife."
"Husband...Madam, calm down." Hanyun lowered his forehead and almost touched the ground, and said tremblingly.
Liu's eyes stared at the person on the ground with a burst of tears and said angrily: "Stop the anger, if it weren't for you, a waste who was not enough to do anything, why would this be like this?"
Hanyun bit his lips tightly, and did not dare to make a sound. He listened to Liu's angry scolding in his ears, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes where others could not see it...
"Since you have done something wrong, you should be punished." Liu snorted and ordered to Madam Zhao on the side: "Madam, go and do it!"
"Yes." Madam Zhao said respectfully.
Hanyun widened his eyes in horror, hurriedly climbed to Liu's feet, and kept kowtowing, "Madam, I am wrong, please, please give me another chance." She used to be one of the most powerful maids around her, so she naturally knew how terrible the means of regulating people were.
Seeing this, a hint of sympathy flashed in his eyes, but no one dared to come forward to plead for Hanyun. They all lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything.
Liu kicked Hanyun away with one kick and said coldly: "Don't you drag her down yet."
Several maids quickly stepped forward and hurriedly dragged Hanyun, who was struggling, half-pulled.
After about a stick of incense, Hanyun was brought back again. However, at this time, her whole body was soaked, like half of it was fished out of water. There was a faint mottled blood on her clothes. She lay on the ground with more intake and less exhaust, and a weak moan could be seen.
Mrs. Liu put down the teacup in her hand and looked at Hanyun condescendingly and said, "Hanyun, this time I will spare your life. If I mess up the matter next time, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Hanyun endured the pain all over his body, moved his body, and said in a weak voice: "I...Madam Thank you for not killing me."
"Very good. After taking the medicine later, you will continue to go back to Mu Qingling and wait for news from my wife at any time." Liu nodded with satisfaction.
"yes."
After the Hanyun matter was dealt with, Madam Zhao told Liu the news he had just obtained. "Madam, the news came from the front yard just now that Aunt Wen went to Luoyunxuan."
"Wen Yue, what did she do when she went to Mu Qingling?" Liu said coldly when he heard this.
"I heard..." Madam Zhao possessed Liu's ear and said everything.
Bang.
Liu swept all the teacups on the table to the ground and said hatefully: "Wen Yue, you are quite ambitious."
Madam Zhao carefully looked at Liu, who was furious and said worriedly: "Madam, even if Aunt Wen has ambitions, she may not be able to accomplish anything. It's just the thing she mentioned... Madam has to be careful."
Liu frowned slightly and said coldly: "The people who had dealt with that incident back then have all been dealt with. Wen Yue... should be unlikely to know."
"Madam, although we have cleaned up all the tails, since Aunt Wen has brought up this matter now, we have to be careful." Madam Zhao's brows were tightly locked. She personally handled the matter back then, so naturally I believe there would be no fish that missed the net. However, after eight years, this matter was suddenly brought up, which inevitably made people feel a little uneasy.
Liu snorted coldly, "Of course, if she really knows something, then there is no need for Mrs. to be polite to her." In any case, she would never allow anyone to threaten her.
