Chapter 674 Let Her Go to the Monastery to Cultivate in Seclusion!
Duke Xing’s Mansion was destined to be unlucky these years!
Something bad happened to Miss Shao who should enter into the palace, and it was not a small matter. After returning to the mansion, Madam of Duke Xing was punished again and was dragged to kneel in the ancestral hall by Old Madam.
The whole Duke Xing’s Mansion was stirred, and many servants were trembling because of fear. They didn’t know what had happened.
In addition to the doctor of the manor, there were also several doctors who were invited outside in the most favored First Miss’s place. It seemed that the First Miss had an incurable disease after she entered the palace.
Madam of Duke Xing, who had always been high and mighty in the whole Duke Xing’s Mansion, was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall because she had offended the Fifth Miss. Later, the furnishment of the Fifth Miss was moved out, which shocked everyone. Then, everyone sighed that it was indeed the Madam who abused the Fifth Miss. The rumors in the past suddenly started again.
Then another thing happened. Miss Qi, who was originally escorted into the mansion, ran away. Not only did she run away, but something happened to her. In a hurry, her carriage hit the carriages of several officials’ family members who were going out. Hearing that she was the nominal foster daughter of Madam of Duke Xing, the officials’ family members wanted to send her back to the mansion for the sake of Madam of Duke Xing.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Qi Rongzhi cried and begged several officials’ family members. Therefore, everyone knew that Miss Qi, who had been adopted as a nominal daughter, lived a miserable life in Duke Xing’s Mansion. Not only was she looked down upon by several Misses, but she was sneered by them from time to time. They even found an excuse to beat and scold her.
With one sentence, Qi Rongzhi did not live a superior life in Duke Xing’s Mansion, and even the servant girl in Duke Xing’s Mansion could bully her. Now they even locked her up and wanted to marry her to the nephew of Duke Xing’s Mansion, Wang Shengxue who used to have a bad reputation. She tried her best to escape from it.
In order to get the trust of others, Qi Rongzhi also told them the reason why Madam of Duke Xing recognized her. She said that Madam of Duke Xing originally liked Shao Wanru, but Shao Wanru didn’t want to regard her as her mother. In order to force Shao Wanru to commit, Madam of Duke Xing deliberately made it public. But finally, she had to admit Qi Rongzhi.
The story was full of ups and downs like a novel. Since Shao Wanru was forced to leave Duke Xing’s Mansion to practice in the nunnery after she returned to her ancestral roots, this made it look more and more like a conspiracy.
It turned out that Madam of Duke Xing had planned it for a long time. Considering the so-called return of Qin’s Mansion’s First Miss and the fake farce, without the approval of Duke Xing’s Mansion, she didn’t have the courage to do such a thing. What she said was indeed in line with what happened before.
Originally, there were only two to three percent of people who believed it, but now there was fifty to sixty percent.
Qi Rongzhi also went ahead regardless this time, for fear that others would send her to Duke Xing’s Mansion again. She also knew that if she went back this time, she would never have another chance. Of course, she had to say everything at this time, and she had to have something to express her despair and sadness.
It was not easy for her to have such a chance to escape. It was her only chance. How could she give up? As she spoke, she cried and fell on the ground, which was extremely miserable.
After listening to Qi Rongzhi’s crying, everyone looked at each other and couldn’t believe what they had heard. Madam of Duke Xing, who had always been dignified and decent in front of others, was such a person. From what she said, it was obvious that Madam of Duke Xing had a conspiracy to adopt this Miss Qi. This conspiracy was aimed at the current Fifth Miss Shao. Qi Rongzhi just happened to meet her.
Considering what Qi Rongzhi had said just now, not only did Madam of Duke Xing bully her but also those Misses of Duke Xing’s Mansion were not good people. In daily life, they would find various reasons to beat and scold her, and even a servant girl could humiliate her at will. Although Qi Rongzhi was only the daughter of a local official, she could not be humiliated by a servant girl.
The Misses of Duke Xing’s Mansion also seemed to be the same as Madam of Duke Xing. They didn’t have a good character, especially the First Miss Shao, who was said to have the best reputation. She was the biological daughter of Madam of Duke Xing, and she might be malicious though she looked kind. The so-called talented beauty might be a joke.
As for what had happened to Wang Shengxue, it made everyone feel ashamed. Because of Duke Xing’s Mansion, many people knew what had happened to Wang Shengxue. Originally, he was a good boy, but later, he had lost his official title and was entangled with several women. He was very indecent. No family was willing to marry such a person.
They didn’t expect that Madam of Duke Xing would push other people’s daughter into such a heated brick bed. It was really amazing.
Although it was said that she was a nominal daughter, and because her parents were not in the capital, Madam of Duke Xing could arrange a marriage for her. But Qi Rongzhi was not willing to, and Madam of Duke Xing forced her and even locked up her. She was really vicious.
Qi Rongzhi’s carriage had an accident on the street. Because she was afraid that she would be taken back to Duke Xing’s Mansion, she directly cried on the street. For a time, the audience was like a tide. When Qi Rongzhi was taken away by Qi Tianyu who came after knowing it, everyone still stayed there and was talking about Qi Rongzhi’s matter.
They all thought that Madam of Duke Xing was too vicious.
Some people pitied Qi Rongzhi. Some hated Duke Xing’s Mansion. Some people suspected the so-called reputation of Duke Xing’s Mansion. And some people linked many things together.
Since Madam of Duke Xing wanted to recognize Fifth Miss Shao but was rejected, she did not give up and schemed against Fifth Miss Shao. She had to admit Qi Rongzhi. Later, the adopted sister pretended to be Fifth Miss Shao and planned to replace Fifth Miss Shao to become the daughter of the Heir of Duke Xing. Then half of the capital city saw that Fifth Miss Shao’s courtyard had been burned to ashes, forcing Fifth Miss Shao to go up to the mountain to cultivate in seclusion in Yuhui Nunnery.
Although it had been quiet for a period of time, things had happened again and again recently. Something had happened in Yuhui Nunnery. Some people said that Fifth Miss Shao was a disaster, and it was said that even the court was shocked. Some people lied to Fifth Miss Shao and she went down the mountain. She almost died at the foot of the mountain of Yuhui Nunnery... There were a lot of things.
They were not aware of it, but they were shocked when they thought about it!
It was obvious that there were a series of conspiracies in it. The target was the daughter of the former Heir of Duke Xing, Fifth Miss Shao. Considering the complicated affairs of Duke Xing’s Mansion, the former Heir of Duke Xing and Infanta Qinghua, who should have inherited as the eldest branch, were both dead, and they died outside. Was there any other reason?
In fact, it was not only because of the war but also because the second branch of Duke Xing’s Mansion wanted to seize this title? If so, the branch of the former heir of Duke Xing’s Mansion was really pitiful and miserable!
Now that there were only an orphan girl and a weak brother left, but those people would not let them go. They were probably going to kill them.
As for the reason why the young master was fine, it was because he had been brought up in Rui’an Great Elder Princess’s Mansion for three years. Otherwise, at this time, he would have been plotted to death.
Some people remembered that Master Hao had a very bad reputation in Duke Xing’s Mansion at that time. It was said that this young master was a devil. At that time, they thought that Old Madam favored this little grandson very much because she thought of her dead son. But now they felt horrible when they thought of it.
She didn’t dote on the child at all. It was obvious that she wanted to spoil the child to be trash.
Everyone in the capital city was talking about Duke Xing’s Mansion, Madam of Duke Xing, and the Miss of Duke Xing’s Mansion today. Most people came to the conclusion that there might be another reason for the death of the former Heir of Duke Xing. He might have been killed by the current second branch of Duke Xing’s Mansion. Now, it was the second branch of Duke Xing’s Mansion who got benefits, and it was also the second branch of Duke Xing’s Mansion who was determined to kill the children of the eldest branch.
This news was sent to Duke Xing’s Mansion with the plamer given by the Empress Dowager. Old Madam of Duke Xing’s Mansion had just heard the rumors outside. When she saw the plamer and the Woman Precepts sent by the Empress Dowager, she was so angry that her face turned blue and looked ferocious. She had never thought that not only would the Empress Dowager be angry about this, but the whole capital city would also discuss Duke Xing’s Mansion.
“Has the Duke come back?” Old Madam took a deep breath and asked coldly.
“Old Madam, don’t worry. I’ve already sent someone to wait for our master at the door. He will definitely come over as soon as he comes back!” Nanny Yu patted Old Madam’s back gently to help her catch her breath. She was afraid that if she got angry, she would not be able to breathe.
“At this time, he is not at home. Where did he go?” Old Madam said impatiently, frowning so much that she could almost use her eyebrows to pick up something.
“Old Madam, don’t worry. Master must have something to deal with. Moreover, these things happened all of a sudden. No one expected such a thing to happen!”
Now things happened one after another, so Nanny Yu could only comfort her in this way.
“Old Madam, the Duke is back!” A servant girl’s gasping voice came from the corridor. Obviously, she ran over to report.
“Quickly, let him in!” Old Madam said in a hurry. She sat up straightly and looked at the door anxiously. Too many things had happened today. At this time, Old Madam also felt exhausted and urgently needed her son to share the burden.
The servant girl at the door lifted the curtain, and the chubby Duke Xing came in. His usual smiling face showed a little anger and his eyes were cold. After bowing to Old Madam first, he sat down on a chair on one side, and then his eyes fell on a jade box in front of Old Madam.
It was the jade box sent by the Empress Dowager just now.
“Mother, what is this?”
“Today, your wife scolded that Wanru and her brother were not the children of your brother in the mansion. Her words were heard by the people sent by the Empress Dowager and Prince Chen. Then they saw that the house your wife arranged for Shao Wanru was filled with shabby furniture, and they couldn’t find anything good, which made me lose face. The Empress Dowager was angry and sent someone to send a plamer and a Woman Precepts to your wife!”
Old Madam had a headache and covered her head with her hands. She was very annoyed.
Although she also had these conjectures in her heart, she would just think about them in her heart. Even if no one of the Empress Dowager heard it, she should not shout it out. It’s not good for others to hear it. Speaking of this, it was because she had behaved improperly and caused such big trouble.
Thinking of the rumors outside, Old Madam felt very annoyed.
Nanny Yu stepped forward and opened the box. Sure enough, there was a white jade plamer and a Woman Precepts inside. She opened it and put it in front of Duke Xing.
A trace of fierceness appeared on Duke Xing’s chubby face. He fixed his eyes on the plamer in the box, raised his head slowly, and said as if he had made up his mind, “Mother, let her go to the nunnery to cultivate in seclusion!”
