Chapter 201 Master

Before Mrs. Liang could speak, the Duke of Jin said angrily: "What else can she say? She's been thinking wildly about who is going to harm her all day long. The fire was an accident. I also know that the Prime Minister's house is unlikely to treat our Duke. What good is it for the Prime Minister's Mansion if the people in the mansion kill him? If it is for the purpose of killing the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion as she said, it is even more ridiculous, not to mention why a father wants to kill his own daughter, even if If you want to kill, you don't have to design such a big fire. No one with a brain would think so. Besides, after our family Xiaoyue married, she was supposed to be a flat wife, but Xia Zian didn't kowtow and disrespect her. Tea, according to the rules, you can directly teach her a lesson, so why set fire secretly?"

Dao Boss and Xiao Sun stood outside the door, listening to the people in the back room all the time.

After listening to Jin Guogong's words, Dao Boss asked Xiaosun softly, "This old thing is annoying, will he bully Missy?"

Xiao Sun said softly, "Yes."

The knife boss was silent for a while, and whispered softly, "Once."

"What?" Xiao Sun couldn't understand, and imitated his speech.

"Three times, you have to bully three times before you have to do it." The knife boss said in a low voice.

Xiao Sun poked him in the waist, "Don't move around. If you don't have the order of the young lady on this occasion, don't act casually, so as not to spoil the young lady's business."

Seeing Xiaosun's serious words, Dao Boss nodded quickly, "Got it, got it."

In the inner room, the Taibao did not express any displeasure at Jin Guogong's interruption, and said with a cheerful face: "Let's put down the matter of kowtowing first. I know something about what happened on the day of the wedding. Let's talk about the business first and then discuss right and wrong."

He looked at Ximen Xiaoyue, "When serving tea, people from the mother's family are usually not inside. How did the second lady know that Miss Xia's family doesn't respect you?"

Ximen Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, "I don't know where Second Aunt heard about this, maybe a servant went out to say it, I don't care much about it, it's a family after all."

Zian smiled slightly, Ximen Xiaoyue completely forgot what she said just now, she told the second lady because she felt uncomfortable, if a person fabricates a lie, he will have a guilty conscience, and a guilty conscience will cause trouble.

The Tai Bao didn't expose it, but asked again with a pleasant face: "You said that you once persuaded the Second Madam not to take revenge on Miss Xia, how did the Second Madam respond to you?"

"Second Aunt said that she couldn't be spared, and that she had to be taught a lesson no matter what." Ximen Xiaoyue said.

The Taibao nodded, and stroked his beard again, "When the fire started, it was the time to swim the fire dragon, right?"

"Yes, when the fire dragon came, many young princes and ladies followed the fire dragon. Chen Taijun's granddaughter was almost burned by the fire dragon that fell to the ground. Fortunately, she practiced martial arts since she was a child and has a quick reaction." Ximen Xiaoyue stroked her chest , said with a look of fear.

"Oh, the old lady's granddaughter is Chen Liuliu, right? The old man remembers this girl, she is indeed a reckless doll, so she didn't burn it later, right? It's too dangerous, why didn't you take any safety measures in the fire dragon dance in Xiangfu Okay?" Taibao asked with concern.

Ximen Xiaoyue heard that he was concerned about Chen Liuliu, so she hurriedly said: "It's okay, Mr. Wu, don't worry, she's fine, but there are a lot of people following the parade, and most of the maids in the mansion ran over. If something really happened, the mansion has ways to deal with it."

The old lady listened, and then sat back down again, but the more she listened, the less she liked it, and she always felt that the Taibao's questions seemed to be very gentle, not sharp, but it made people feel like a language trap was set.

She wanted to wake up Ximen Xiaoyue, so she said: "Xiaoyue, you should get up first, the yamen has already investigated this matter, and those who clear it up will clear it up themselves, there is no need to say too much, everyone understands it in their hearts."

The Taibao raised his eyes and looked at the old lady with a smile, "The old lady is right, and those who are clear will clean up themselves. There is really no need to pay attention to those gossips, and we are all one family. Now that the unpleasant things are over, let's just let it go." OK, okay?"

When he asked this question, he looked at Duke Jin.

Although Jin Guogong was eager to stop, but now, when it comes to this point, Liang has raised so many doubts. If he doesn't make it clear, the elders of the family don't know what they will think of the Duke's Mansion.

Therefore, he felt that it was necessary to say something again, especially now that they had already controlled the overall situation, and the Taibao did not believe in Liang's words. If he didn't take advantage of this misunderstanding today, he might be brought up again in the future.

So Jin Guogong stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Taibao, our Ximen clan has stood in Beijing for more than two hundred years. We have a clean and high reputation, and we have never been involved in any dirty and dark things, so we are very loved by the people. The matter happened in the prime minister's mansion, but the second wife accused the old man of being conniving, and the old man can't stand it. Since the eunuch has already asked the question, you might as well ask further, so that the second lady can be convinced."

The Taibao said in embarrassment: "Today is the Duke's mansion hosting a banquet for the son-in-law. It is a very happy event, why do you keep bringing up these unpleasant things?"

Ximen Xiaoyue also said: "Five Lord, to be honest, I have absolutely no disrespect towards Second Aunt. Second Aunt hurt the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion and framed Miss Zi'an for me. I am here to apologize to my second aunt."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and kowtowed to Mrs. Liang. She kowtowed three times in a row, all with a bang.

After kowtowing, she raised her head, with tears in her eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Second aunt, niece, thank you very much for standing out for me, but I really didn't let anyone harm you, let alone poison you, don't listen to me." others' slander."

Well, being slandered by others, Zian felt that his back was full of holes and was poked.

Hey, she sighed indistinctly, the good show should start soon, otherwise she will be sleepy.

The Taibao also acted like a peacemaker, and said to Mrs. Liang: "Yeah, if this matter just passed away, and you are too impulsive, how can you complain to you because of Xiaoyue? Are you really going to settle accounts with the eldest lady of the Prime Minister’s Mansion? After all, it’s her family’s business, if she does something wrong, the old lady and the Prime Minister will deal with it, why do you meddle with you as an outsider?”

The people inside didn't recognize the trap in Taibao's words, but Zian did.

Today she knows what a master is.

She believed that it would not be long before she would be involved.

Ximen Xiaoyue wiped her tears, "I'm sorry, Second Aunt, please forgive me, okay?"

Liang Shi looked at her, as if he believed her words, "You really didn't have someone poison you to burn me to death in the side room?"

"No, really not." Ximen Xiaoyue said.

The grandfather stretched out his hand to pull the two of them up, and said with a pleasant face: "Okay, get up, this matter is over, the second lady is injured, isn't Xiaoyue also injured? As Xiangye said, everything was an accident, since It’s an accident, it’s uncontrollable.”

Mrs. Liang stood up, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I've tired you old man, and it's all my fault that I'm a suspicious ghost. I feel dizzy and think someone is going to kill me."

The old lady and Xia Cheng looked at each other, and they both breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that she was worrying unnecessarily just now, what kind of trouble can this Liang family cause? It's just a farce.
