Chapter 726: There Is Nothing in the Ancestral Hall?

There are so many people around, not only people from Duke Xingguo's palace but also people from the palace. They don't want others to interfere in the internal affairs of the family, and they don't want others to inquire, even if they are the queen's wife.

The madam nodded knowingly: "Whoever comes, please send them to my yard first, and everyone else should go back!"

She didn't want people to watch the good show, but she couldn't think of a way to drive Aunt Xi away. Now that she had such a reason, it was quite high-sounding.

Mrs. Xingguo breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could fully relax, she heard someone say: "There may be evidence in the ancestral hall where Madam lived before."

Subconsciously, he raised his head and saw a beautiful woman in her thirties. Although she was wearing the clothes of a servant, she had an extraordinary bearing. She looked at him without hesitation.

"Madam, you have been living in the ancestral hall before?" Aunt Xi's face changed. She looked at the ancestral hall in front of her in surprise, and then at Mrs. Xingguo Gong, who was dressed simply and did not look like the wife of a duke. She came in a hurry and didn't think about it carefully. It seemed that the Duke's wife had committed a crime and was imprisoned in the ancestral hall by the Dowager Lady.

I remembered the previous legend in the palace that the Queen Mother gave Duke Xingguo a ruler, and it seems to be true!

This lady of Duke Xingguo offended the Queen Mother and was punished by the Queen Mother. She was imprisoned in Duke Xingguo's palace to let the Queen Mother calm down her anger.

He rolled his eyes slightly and said that this matter must be reported to the Empress. The Empress has always respected the Queen Mother. Now that the matter of Mrs. Xingguo has happened, Miss Shao's matter does not seem to be a sure thing.

"It is true that we live in the ancestral hall." The wife replied awkwardly. Everyone knew this kind of thing.

"Then let's check it out!" Grandma Xi suggested. Since she wanted to make good friends with Grandma Zheng, she naturally agreed to Grandma Zheng's proposal. Besides, she wouldn't just go back like this. She had to figure out the reason for this matter. .

If the eldest lady of Duke Xingguo's palace really enters Prince Zhou's palace in the future, the queen will definitely know more about her affairs. It is difficult to find out such things afterwards.

"No need...there's nothing in here...the food basket is from the kitchen..." Mrs. Xingguo coughed twice again and said with difficulty.

Feeling anxious, he turned his eyes to his daughter who was standing next to Grandma Xi, and winked at her, implying that she could not allow anyone to inspect this ancestral hall.

Shao Yanru's eyes met Mrs. Xingguo's, and when she saw Mrs. Xingguo's appearance, she understood what Mrs. Xingguo meant, and there was an unreasonable anger in her heart.

Thinking back to the time when she was poisoned by accident, and then looking at the current situation, she felt both hateful and annoyed. How could she not hate that her body had been harmed like this? It almost made her childless for the rest of her life. Although she was now eating Dr. Qiu's medicine is treating her, but her body is definitely damaged. It will be difficult to conceive an heir in the future, and she may even fall pregnant.

How could Shao Yanru not anger Duke Xingguo and therefore turn a blind eye to the imprisonment of Duke Xingguo and his wife.

Shao Huaan once came to her and asked her to plead for Mrs. Xingguo, but Shao Yanru refused directly. As a mother, when she plotted against Shao Wanru, she never thought about what would happen if she fell into the trap? Besides, she was originally unwilling to deal with Shao Wanru personally.

It was Mrs. Xingguo's repeated persuasion and said that this matter was absolutely certain and nothing would happen, so she agreed.

Who would have expected that her agreement would almost destroy him.

Of course it was Shao Wanru who ruined her, but when she thought that the medicine was prepared by Duke Xingguo and Concubine Shu, how could she not be angry.

Originally, she had taken advantage of Mrs. Xingguo's current state to show her motherly love and filial piety in front of Aunt Xi, but now she didn't want to get involved anymore.

At a glance, he knew that there was another conspiracy involved. If he intervened rashly now, if the matter failed, he would be implicated.

Next to Shao Wanru, there is this Aunt Zheng. She came out of the palace. What kind of person has I never seen? These mother's tricks are really not enough.

Feeling resentful in his heart and feeling that Aunt Zheng was powerful, Shao Yanru looked at Mrs. Xingguo for a few times and then comforted her softly: "Don't worry, mother, the investigation will be quick and she will leave after the investigation. I will never worry about it." I missed my mother's injury. If she is worried, she can go back first and my grandmother and I will check together!"

Mrs. Xingguo's face stiffened and she looked at Shao Yanru almost in disbelief. She felt that Shao Yanru understood what she meant. Why didn't he speak for her and instead asked her to go back first? What did this mean?

Can you go back by yourself? But how could Grandma Sheng be able to stop it alone?

"Mrs. Tai, since the eldest sister said so, let's check it out, lest the people behind the scenes find out and it will be too late to check again!" Shao Wanru also smiled and responded to Shao Yanru.

Mrs. Xingguo's face was ugly. She reached out to pinch the corner of the quilt in her hand and her breathing became rapid. Why was this happening? Why did she see hatred in her daughter's eyes.

Hasn't Ruer already forgiven herself? Why is there still such hatred!

"Come here, check if there is anything unusual or something in here!" Madam Tai said coldly. Since everyone has said so, Madam Tai naturally found it inconvenient to refuse.

The maids and wives brought here all went to look through the few things in the ancestral hall.

Mrs. Xingguo rolled her eyes and seemed to faint again.

"Madam... Madam..." Grandma Sheng shouted anxiously.

"Ru'er... Ru'er..." Madam Xingguo choked.

"Mother, how are you? Are you okay? My daughter will take you back first, okay?" Hearing Mrs. Xingguo calling her, Shao Yanru stepped forward quickly and took Mrs. Xingguo's hand, her face full of concern.

Mrs. Xingguo's hand grabbed Shao Yanru's hand hard, lowered her cuffs to block other people's sight, stretched out her fingers and wrote a few words on Shao Yanru's palm, "Take the person away"!

He stared at Shao Yanru eagerly, suggesting that she take all these people away.

Shao Yanru shook her head silently and gently, looking back at Aunt Xi, Madam Tai, and even Aunt Zheng on one side. If she stood up at this time, she would definitely be implicated. She would not stand up at this time. Speak for my mother.

Needless to say, this matter was the fault of my mother and Concubine Shu.

She had never heard of such poison in her mother's hands. It should have been from Concubine Shu's hands. Thinking that she was in this situation after taking Concubine Shu's medicine, Shao Yanru also wanted to eat Concubine Shu. of her flesh.

"Mom, don't worry, we'll check it out right away. No one will come to harm you again!" She held the hand of Mrs. She seemed worried about the health of Mrs. Xingguo.

Mrs. Xingguo thought she didn't understand, so she struggled hard to break away from her hand, but was suppressed tightly by Shao Yanru.

"Madam, I didn't find anything!"

"Madam, the servants didn't find anything."

"There's nothing here." In fact, there weren't many things in the ancestral hall. After checking a few items, the maids and women came to report one by one, but there was nothing.

Shao Wanru's eyes fell on Mrs. Xingguo's face, and she saw an expression of relief on her face, but the next moment, she immediately looked weak again, as if the relief she just saw was a mistake. As if.

Shui's eyes narrowed slightly, there must be a problem here, but the problem was not in the ancestral hall.

But if not in the ancestral hall, then where!

"Mother, since we haven't found anything, let's go back first... My daughter-in-law has something to tell you..." Mrs. Xingguo Gong looked at the Tai Fu and said, as if she had a secret to tell, but there were too many people here.

The madam was silent for a moment, looked around, and found nothing. It seemed that there was no problem here. She nodded and was about to take her away after agreeing to what she said.

But I saw Grandma Zheng on the side raised her eyes and said calmly: "Wait a minute!"

"Who are you, and where did you come from...why do you keep interrupting...when the masters are talking...without pulling down the stick...the stick..." Mrs. Xingguo glared at Nanny Zheng.

She remembered that it was this woman who said she wanted to check the ancestral hall just now, and now she was so unwilling to let her go. It was really abominable.

When she gets better one day, she will definitely kill this woman who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth.

Aunt Zheng didn't know that these few words of hers had made Mrs. Xingguo have murderous intentions. At this time, her eyes still fell coldly on Mrs. Xingguo's face: "Madam, this slave is the foster nun next to the fifth young lady. I entered the Xingguo Duke's Mansion with the Fifth Young Lady. In the past, there was a Lu rank in the palace!"

There is a completely different difference between palace people who have rank and those who have no rank.

Mrs. Xingguo was stunned for a moment and looked at Shao Yanru subconsciously. How could she not know that there was a high-ranking palace servant in the palace beside Shao Wanru, and she was also her nun? How could she not know this before?

Shao Yanru nodded silently at her, secretly despising her mother. She had been fighting with Shao Wanru for so long. Didn't she know everything about Shao Wanru clearly? Why didn't she find out that there was someone else around her? It’s not a small matter of educating a grandma.

If he had known this earlier, how could he have taken it lightly.

"Mrs. Tai, you haven't checked behind the ancestral hall, have you?" Aunt Zheng stopped paying attention to Mrs. Xingguo Gong and turned to Mrs. Tai.

"What's behind the ancestral hall?" Mrs. Tai said angrily.

"Maybe there are some shady things hidden!" Aunt Zheng said with a hint.

These words reminded Grandma Xi, and she immediately cheered: "You really should go to the back of the ancestral hall to take a look. This is the place where trouble is most likely to happen. This kind of thing also happened when we were in the palace. Finally, the back is the least inviting place. I found it out where I paid attention!”

Duke Xingguo was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. Where did these idiots come from? They actually ruined her own affairs again and again. Now, they even interfered with Aunt Xi who was next to the Queen. How could she not be angry?

But no matter how angry she was, there was nothing she could do now. She could only shake Shao Yanru's hand hard and let her think of a solution.

Helplessly, Shao Yanru remained silent and seemed not to notice.

"Go and take a look at the back!" the madam ordered.
