Chapter 399 Master Hou Disagrees
Then the following plot was more bloody. Sun Fanger began to compete for the top position. Her mother paid a lot of money to hire a Miao Jiang master to teach her witchcraft. , Sun Fang'er began to respect the master very much, and coaxed the master to teach her all the skills. It is true that there is an old saying that teaches apprentices to starve to death, but for Master Sun Fanger, he taught apprentices to kill the master.
After Sun Fang'er became a teacher, the first person to kill was her master, and he used the poison taught by her master.
There was no cure, and her master died.
Then, she killed her biological mother and knelt at the door of Mrs. Sun as an orphan. Mrs. Sun was a soft-hearted woman. Seeing her pitiful, she treated her like her own daughter. Take her and Rou Yao.
Finally, she seized the opportunity and cast a love-hate Gu on Murong Jie. This kind of Gu is very powerful and there is no antidote.
Murong Jie was bewitched by her for half a month, and, in the end, even proposed to the Empress Dowager to marry her.
The empress dowager naturally refused to agree, and asked him to go to Hanshan to ask the empress dowager himself, and he really went without hesitation.
However, after he came back, he ordered someone to take Sun Fanger into custody. He gave Sun Fanger a pill, and Sun Fanger admitted on the spot that she had played a trick on him.
In this dynasty, poisoning and cursing are both methods of avoiding victory and are forbidden, so the Sun family naturally had to drive her out of the house.
Sun Fang'er went to beg Mrs. Sun, but Mrs. Sun did not soften her heart. In a rage, Sun Fang'er poisoned Mrs. Sun. Mrs. Sun almost died. Fortunately, the old prince An Ran rescued her and survived. It's a pity that the toxicity of the Gu poison made her deaf.
After hearing this, Zian was shocked, "No wonder Rou Yao hates her so much, no wonder Murong Jie doesn't want to talk about her, so there is such a thing."
"That's right, since that time, Uncle Huang hated women and didn't allow any women to get close to him. I heard that it was because Sun Fang'er hugged him when he was obsessed with Sun Fang'er," Liang Wang said.
Zi'an raised his eyebrows, "Just hugged?"
"I heard that we still kissed each other. Anyway, after that, Uncle Huang gargled his mouth with spirits for a month."
Zi'an smiled and said, "This poor child."
Liang Wangdao: "You can still laugh? This Sun Fang'er is a very vicious person, even her mother and master can be attacked. Later, she took refuge in Nanhuai King and followed him to the southern country. This time they came back, I am afraid It’s not easy to leave.”
"Well, I know." Zian nodded.
Zi'an turned around and went out, the boss Dao happened to come looking for something, after he said a few words to Zi'an, Zi'an was overjoyed and followed the boss to leave.
She didn't come back until evening, Murong Jie asked her unhappily, "Where did you go?"
Zian whispered a few words in his ear, and Murong Jie said, "Really?"
"It's absolutely true!" Zi'an said.
Murong Jie hummed, but didn't seem very happy, as if it was expected.
Let's say the Empress Dowager passed on Lord Hou to enter the palace and showed him the divorce letter. Hou Ye frowned and knelt on the ground, "Empress Dowager, this divorce letter cannot be made public, and the old minister will not admit it."
The Empress Dowager said: "Even if it is made public, the Ai family thinks it doesn't matter. Why should Hou Ye be stubborn?"
Lord Hou shook his head, "It's not because I'm stubborn, but because the origin of this letter of divorce is unknown. Although it is Xiao Xiao's handwriting, it has not been approved by the family, let alone Han Qingqiu. Maybe it was just written by Xiao Xiao for fun. "
The Empress Dowager said: "You should know that Xiao Xiao didn't want to marry Han Qingqiu, he had to do it."
"No, queen mother, don't say that, Xiao Xiao is voluntary." Hou Ye corrected the empress dowager.
The empress dowager sighed softly, knowing that Lord Hou was cautious, he was always afraid that Xiao Xiao would marry the princess, even if it was just a corpse, he was afraid, because the power behind the princess existed even after her death, Will belong to the Xiao family.
He was afraid because he knew that the emperor was jealous of the Xiao family, and he wanted to try his best to ensure that nothing would happen to the Xiao family.
The empress dowager hoped that Lord Hou would agree, but Lord Hou was so stubborn that he would not agree if he continued. She sighed and said, "Forget it, you can go. The Ai family will not force you, the Ai family just loves them."
Hou Ye was silent for a while, and there was a complicated look in his eyes, didn't he feel distressed? He is distressed, more than anyone else, but what can he do? The emperor is still there, the emperor is afraid of the Xiao family all day, and the Xiao family has to behave with their tails between their legs.
Lord Hou disagreed, and the choice of the son-in-law had to be put on the agenda again.
Master Cui recommended someone this time, which surprised the Empress Dowager. Master Cui actually recommended Liang Shulin, the grandson of Master Liang.
The empress dowager ordered someone to find out, and learned that Liang Shulin was not valued at home. Although he was a wise man, he had been serving as the commander of the guards in the East Palace. There were not many people under his command, only twelve people.
The empress dowager didn't look directly at the recommendations of other adults, because the recommenders were inherently dishonest, and they were caught in parties fighting for power and profit. Only Lord Cui, he has always supported the regent, and he was upright. Shang Shuling has been in charge for many years, and his political achievements are shining. He is an official who does things in a down-to-earth manner.
Therefore, the empress dowager looked at the people he recommended differently.
Just when the noble concubine entered the palace, the empress dowager talked to her about Liang Shulin.
The noble concubine didn't know anything about this person, but she heard that it was someone from Mr. Liang's family, so she disagreed a little, "Isn't it good to marry someone from the Liang family? Doesn't it imperceptibly make the Liang family bigger?"
The Empress Dowager said: "That's impossible. The Ai family ordered people to observe and found that Liang Shulin and the Taifu had a bad relationship, and the Taifu also kept suppressing this grandson. This Liang Shulin was in the Liang family. It can be said that he was a different kind. oppression of those struggling to survive."
"What about character?" the noble concubine asked.
"He has a good character. The Ai family asked the guards who worked with him, and they all said that he has a good character, both civil and military, and he has nothing to do with ambition. The Taifu treats him so coldly, and he has no complaints. He just does his job well."
After hearing this, the noble concubine said calmly: "If there are other candidates, let's take another look."
"I can't see it. Ai's family ordered someone to ask Zi'an. If Zhuangzhuang's needle is sealed again, it can last for two or three days at most. Therefore, we must confirm this matter as soon as possible."
The Concubine Gui remained silent, and the two of them were silent for a while, the Empress Dowager was worried about being strong, while the Concubine Gui didn't seem to care much about it.
"By the way, is Lao Ba back yet?" the Empress Dowager asked.
"It should be here in two days." The noble concubine said calmly.
The empress dowager looked at her, "Brother Ba is back, can you feel at ease? This time, you mother and son have a good get together, otherwise this time we part, and the next time we meet may not be."
The Concubine Gui smiled lightly, "Now I see it, if you really want your son to be more important, then go see him, my old bones can still walk, it's hard to say when I'm older."
"It's good if you know how to think like this. If you and Ah Jie have such a quarrel, it would be nice if the old man can reconcile it when he comes back. It's just that the two brothers don't see eye to eye. That's all, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so we don't care so much gone."
A light flashed across the eyes of the noble concubine, "Yes, don't worry about it."
