"Did the master really mean what he said?"

Princess Xin was very happy to learn that King Xin was angry with her aunt because of Li Yan's affairs.

She had long disliked the mother and son. They had received many benefits from her son before, but since her son became ill, they began to ignore their former friendship and even ambitiously wanted to replace them.

If it weren't for Zheng'er's fate, I don't know what would happen now.

She didn't care about what happened in the past, but this time, even if the master punished Li Yan, she still felt upset.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Aunt Zhou for a few days. Come on, the weather is nice today. Let's go for a walk." The princess went to Aunt Zhou's residence in a good mood.

At this time, Aunt Zhou hated Li Zheng to death. She felt that everything Li Yan was suffering now was because of him.

Princess Xin is Li Zheng's biological mother, so she is naturally among those she hates. So when the servant said that the princess came over, her eyes were not eyes and her nose was not a nose. Even when he saluted, he was perfunctory.

"What's wrong with my sister? Are you in a bad mood?"

Princess Xin is in a good mood now and she knows why Aunt Zhou is like this, so she is not unhappy at all when she speaks. If you look carefully, you can see the pride in her eyes that she has not had time to hide.

"Thank you for your concern, Princess. I am in good health."

"Really?" Princess Xin narrowed her eyes, "You are in a good mood, but I am not in a good mood. I heard that Yan'er poisoned Zheng'er this morning?"

Aunt Zhou originally came here to watch her lively, so she was in a bad mood to show her off, completely forgetting why her son ended up like this.

He also forgot how much the princess loved this son. No matter what the mother and son did in the past, they had never been caught by anyone, so no matter how sarcastic the princess was, they pretended not to hear it.

But today is different. First, Li Yan was sent to the government by the prince because of this matter, and now the princess also came to her to ask questions. If she couldn't tell the truth, she might have to accompany Li Yan.

Although she felt sorry for her son, she didn't want mother and son to be reunited in prison.

What's more... her intuition told her that the princess would not let her go so easily.

As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, the princess spoke, "I also heard that my son has been secretly poisoned in the past few years when he has been ill. If the miracle doctor hadn't appeared in time and discovered this matter, I'm afraid I would have suffered a miserable life. My son is about to be killed by those things with human faces and animal hearts."

These words were told to her by the master last night. Of course, the reason why the master came to tell her these things was because she knew Tao Yaoyao and the others.

And if they want to cover up their whereabouts, they must make her speak the same language as them.

Originally she didn't like Tao Yaoyao and was unwilling to help, but the master said she could help Zheng'er, and Zheng'er's current situation was not good. So she agreed without thinking.

It was also because of this that she hated Aunt Zhou and her son so much.

In the past, the master always talked about a family, a family, but she regarded mother and son as a family, but what about them. Do you consider them a family?

If it weren't for their mother and son, how could her Zheng'er have suffered so many grievances in recent years.

Now that she has the intention to kill them, how can she show mercy?

"Why don't you speak? Weren't you very angry just now?" At this moment, the more Aunt Zhou felt guilty, the angrier Princess Xin became. In her opinion, it was because she felt guilty about what she had done to Li Zheng before.

And Li Zheng is her miserable son.

Aunt Zhou became even more frightened when she saw the princess's reluctance, "Why can't I understand what the princess is saying..."

bang bang

After two slaps, Princess Xin felt a little more comfortable.

"After all these years, why are you still doing the same thing? I'm tired of you not acting."

Princess Xin walked forward while scolding her, and when Aunt Zhou was forced to retreat, she continued, "Do you really think I don't know what you and your son are doing behind your back?

In the past, I did not care about you because of the prince's face. Now that you have fallen into the hands of the prince, don't blame me for stepping on you.

Whatever you mother and son did to my son in the past, from today on, I will find it in you. "

After Princess Xin finished speaking, she couldn't wait to ask someone to catch a dog, and then threw a bone on the ground. After seeing the bone, the black dog rushed over like crazy to pick up the piece of meat.

The servant held on to the rope tightly to prevent him from succeeding.

When Princess Xin asked someone to bring Aunt Zhou out, she happened to see this scene.

Aunt Zhou's mind immediately recalled that when Li Yan learned that Li Zheng was stupid a few years ago, she used this method to see if he was stupid and to humiliate him.

When she learned about this incident, she thought about stopping it at first, but then she felt endless pleasure. The feeling of being suppressed underground and lingering for many years. Once she gained power, she was unwilling to let go. It was faster than letting her go. Such a missed opportunity.

Although she knew the consequences of doing this from the beginning, when the day came and the retribution came, she still felt very uncomfortable.

Just like children who secretly wear adults' clothes, people who do bad things but hide it so that no one knows about it, these people all have a sense of luck, just in case... just in case...

"Remember this scene. Your good son caused my son to be bitten by a dog and almost died. What you said at the time was not intentional.

That day, the Japanese princess had no intention of returning. "

After Princess Xin finished speaking, she winked at the servant. After the servant understood, she immediately stuffed a piece of fat meat into Aunt Zhou's arms.

Aunt Zhou subconsciously grabbed it, but before she had time to react, she saw the big black dog that had just been dragged rushing towards her with a bloody mouth.

After she realized what she was doing, she subconsciously wanted to run, but she was so frightened that she stood frozen in place, unable to move for a long time.

Almost in an instant, the big black dog rushed into her arms, bit the fat meat, and then began to bite Aunt Zhou.

Aunt Zhou ran as hard as she could, but she was the opponent of the black dog, and soon there were bites everywhere on her body. It is believed that the princess looked at this scene without any intention of stopping, but looked at it with a proud face.

It's like... a great revenge is avenged. I still feel unfulfilled, and I even hope that this retribution will come faster and more violently.

However, her plan did not come true. Aunt Zhou's scream was so loud that it alerted people in other courtyards. Tao Yaoyao sensed something was wrong and came here.

When I came over, I happened to meet King Xin and Xie Lan. When they saw this, they also followed over.

When the three of them came to the door of the yard, the big black dog happened to catch up with Aunt Zhou and bite her on the butt. Aunt Zhou saw King Xin in panic and cried, "Master, help me."

Aunt Zhou ran to King Xin. The big black dog tried to attack Aunt Zhou but was beaten to death by the guard.

Princess Xin was very dissatisfied when she saw this. "My lord, you are still protecting her at this time? Have you forgotten how mother and son treated Zheng'er when he first fell ill?

Now I'm just tit for tat. This is just the beginning. Compared to what Zheng'er endured, this is nothing. "

King Xin naturally knew his intentions, otherwise he would have scolded her when he saw this scene just now. In the past few years, he was not unaware of the princess's anger, but there were some things that he had no choice but to do.

Now she should not vent all her dissatisfaction on Aunt Zhou.

Even if she is not an innocent person.

"The matter has come to this. Even if you kill her today, Zheng'er will never come back from the injustice she suffered in the past." King Xin sighed, "If you are unhappy, you can tell me, but if you kill her, you will never come back." You also have to pay for your life. Are you really willing to pay for it?"

Princess Zhou was naturally not willing to trade one life for another. In her eyes, Aunt Zhou was just a lowly servant, and her life and death were also in her hands.

She was already very angry when the master suddenly appeared to protect her, but now the master actually asked her to pay for her life, which made Princess Zhou even more angry.

"Master, do you have to be so partial?"

"In the past, when mother and son bullied Zheng'er, you turned a blind eye or closed one eye. Now that I want to avenge Zheng'er, you are sober. Are they the only ones in your eyes?"

Princess Zhou turned over and over again just to avenge Li Zheng and couldn't see anything else.

King Xin had some things he couldn't say, and he became unhappy when he saw her reluctance.

Xie Lan stood aside and watched all this calmly. Tao Yaoyao felt that Princess Xin was a bit stupid. The current situation is so good for her, how can she destroy a good hand of cards?

Let's not talk about Li Yan's side, but Aunt Zhou. As the head mother of the family, if she was accused of not being able to teach her son well and then sent to a random place, wouldn't this make her fall out of favor?

If a concubine does not have the favor of the prince, what future will she have in the future?

As for Li Yan, she is also a grasshopper after the fall, and she can reap the consequences without her taking any action personally.

Unfortunately, she couldn't see the situation clearly, she only knew how to respond in kind. Now instead of letting myself be happy, I have offended King Xin. It is really not worth the loss.

"Okay, if you feel aggrieved, you can go back to your parents' home." King Xin was impatient with her pestering, so he simply dropped the harsh words and ignored him.

Princess Xin was so angry that she cried on the spot.

When Tao Yaoyao saw this, he didn't want to continue reading.

What the hell, a princess can cry like this in front of her concubine, and she doesn't mind being embarrassed.

"Sister is crying like this, but she is dissatisfied with the prince?" Aunt Zhou, who was still shaking just now, found the right opportunity to take action and struck a fatal blow.

When King Xin heard this, he subconsciously looked at Princess Xin.

Princess Xin didn't realize the seriousness of the matter and opened her mouth to reply, "You are a cheap concubine, and you dare to sow discord between the mistress and the prince. You are so brave. Someone come and slap this princess."

"Master." Aunt Zhou hid behind King Xin in fear.

King Xin immediately said dissatisfied, "Let's see who dares."

"Master, it was Aunt Zhou who started the discord. If you don't punish her, why do you punish me? Master, you see clearly, I am the mistress of Prince Xin's Mansion.

You don't give me any face for being a concubine. Are you trying to force me to death? "

Princess Zhou felt aggrieved. After speaking, she took her servants and left here.

Tao Yaoyao originally thought that this farce was over, but as soon as the princess left, Aunt Zhou lay in King Xin's arms and cried so sadly, "Your Majesty, I am so scared. My sister said that she would take all the things she had in the past." All the dissatisfaction was vented on me. You saw what happened just now.

That dog almost killed me. If another tiger or leopard came along, I would really be dead..."

This Aunt Zhou really knew how to confuse right and wrong. It was obviously their mother and son who harmed Li Zheng first, and Princess Xin was just retaliating with tooth, but when it came to her mouth, it turned into Princess Xin's deliberate revenge.

Tao Yaoyao thought Princess Xin was stupid before, but now it seems that this person is the one stirring up discord.

Fortunately, King Xin is sensible. She did not follow Aunt Zhou's wishes and continue to reprimand Princess Xin.

"Okay, hurry back and apply the medicine. I will investigate Li Yan's matter clearly." After King Xin finished speaking, he turned and left here.

Aunt Zhou wanted to stop him, but King Xin subconsciously avoided it.

Aunt Zhou didn't expect King Xin to hide, so she jumped to the ground and fell to the ground, which made her already injured even worse.

"Aunt Zhou, be careful. If you walk too much at night, you will be punished."

Tao Yaoyao reminded her before leaving.

Aunt Zhou didn't think it was a reminder, but instead thought she was gloating. Then he glared at her fiercely. After she left, she immediately called someone over to investigate their details.

The people who believed in King Xin immediately told King Xin about the matter after getting the news.

King Xin had just sat down. After learning about this, he came here angrily.

Aunt Zhou thought it was the master's conscience who came back to visit her, so she was filled with joy and stood up to entertain her despite her uncomfortable body, but she was slapped. It hurt so much that she shed tears.

"Master." After Aunt Zhou came to her senses, she looked at King Xin aggrievedly, "Now that I'm in this state, why can't I let the master relieve his anger? The prince is the master's son, isn't Yan'er the same?"

"That's enough." The last thing King Xin wants to hear now is this sentence, "Since ancient times, there has been a distinction between concubines and concubines. It was you, mother and son, who were greedy first, so don't blame me for making you pay the price."

"Are we greedy first?" Aunt Zhou still didn't think she was wrong. "Master, let's go to the street and see who will let a fool inherit the family business. In the past, the prince was wise, martial and intelligent, and he was indeed worthy of being the prince. position, but now..."

"So you can't tolerate him, and even humiliate him and harm him?" King Xin originally thought that he would talk about it after Xie Lan and the others left, but their mother and son pressed forward step by step, and even now they didn't feel it. I was wrong.

King Xin felt that if he remained silent, they would only go further, so he said coldly, "Do you know why Zheng'er suddenly became stupid? It's because someone wanted to harm him.

For him, the current situation is the safest.

You don’t understand anything, you only know how to look at the surface. Do you really think that the title of Crown Prince is a good title? In the past, you were safe and had no worries about food and clothing. That was because I, the King, and the Crown Prince helped you block all dangers.

Since you don't need it, then from today on, you can just take care of yourself. "

King Xin sneered and said, "Don't find anyone to investigate the distinguished guests at home, otherwise the king will give you nothing but two slaps next time."

After King Xin finished speaking, he ignored Aunt Zhou's reaction and turned to leave.

Aunt Zhou sat on the bed. After a long time to recover, she burst into tears.

She used to think that her life was not good, and she was homeless at a young age and never had a good life. Later, God showed mercy and allowed her to meet the master.

The master treated her better than the princess. During that time, she felt that she was the happiest person in the world.

Later, when she had a child of her own, she thought it would be great if she could continue like this.

But people's hearts are greedy and dissatisfied. When she had everything she wanted before, she started to want fame, wealth and status again.

She knew that it was wrong to think so, but she couldn't control herself, and because of the prince's favor, she felt that maybe the prince would not do anything to her even if he knew about it.

But she suppressed a man's concern for power and family. So much so that now that she has received her retribution, there is no way to turn back.

No, she doesn't want to lose everything, and she doesn't want to go back to how she was before. She never wanted to live a miserable life again.

Not even for a day.

"Come here, I want to see the master." Aunt Zhou came to her senses and wanted to get out of bed to find King Xin.

But no matter how she shouted, the servants outside would not come in. When she stumbled to the door, she realized that she was grounded.

The master is so hateful.

One second you can be extremely affectionate towards her, and the next second you can be cruel to her.

The funny thing is that she actually thinks that the master treats him differently. She has even been showing off her power over the princess in these years. Thinking about it now, it is really ridiculous, pitiful and sad.

"There's nothing left. There's nothing left."

Aunt Zhou was sitting on the ground at the door, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing, making all the servants in the yard frightened. I'm afraid that she will do something wrong, and that something will happen to her.

Aunt Zhou is not kind to her servants, so everyone is afraid of her.

In fact, to be honest, in this family, besides Princess Xin who wants her to never turn over, the same goes for these servants. It's just that their status is low, and they don't dare to show it even if they feel disgust in their hearts.

"Should we tell the master?"

"Let's forget it. When the prince and Aunt Zhou quarreled in the past, didn't Aunt Zhou like to pretend to be pitiful? Maybe she is pretending to be crazy now."

Everyone thought it made sense, so they turned around and continued working.

After Tao Yaoyao learned what happened in Aunt Zhou's yard, she smiled and shook her head, feeling that Aunt Zhou had all her own fault.

People can be ambitious, but they cannot use their ambition to harm others.

Li Yan may have ambitions, but without her connivance, I'm afraid he wouldn't be where he is today, so it seems a bit unreasonable for her to blame all her dissatisfaction on the prince.

"The women in the backyard have been living for their men and sons all their lives. When they were young, they competed for favor, and later they competed for family property. But they fought for it, but it was never for themselves.

In the end, he failed and ended up dying without a burial place. He didn't know what he was busy with in this life.

Speaking of which, it is really pitiful and sad.

I don't want to be such a woman. "

Tao Yaoyao turned to look at Xie Lan, "I am not a person who can be wronged. If you ask me to endure it for a day, I may be able to cooperate with you in two days, but over time, I will lose myself.

I don’t want to live a life of insensitivity, nor do I want to become a stranger to myself for the sake of others. "

"I know." Xie Lan took her hand and said seriously, "After the Chu family incident is over, I will take you to a place you like. I will listen to you in the future."

The dignified King Dingbei is actually a rake. Tao Yaoyao looked at his increasingly soft eyes, and suddenly remembered the first time she saw him.

At that time, he rejected people thousands of miles away, as if there was no one or anything in the world that he could take to heart.

At that time, she never thought that such a person would one day become like this because of her. However, she likes him very much now.

If they can all come back alive this time...

"We will come back alive." Xie Lan seemed to see through her thoughts, so he said seriously, "We will also be together. Trust me."

"Of course I believe what the prince said. I'm just worried that the day comes when the prince will regret it."
