Chapter 60: Killing Intent
Translator: 549690339
Empress Wang immediately felt a headache coming on. What was this?
Why did he bring up his younger brother?
Pulling out innocence?
Also, which clan brother was it? Her Wang family was big, and she couldn’t even recognize them if there were so many of them.
Empress Wang was confused.” What’s going on?”It sounded as if there was a deep blood feud. Madam Yin wished she could drink Lady Xiao’s blood and eat her flesh.
” Replying to the Empress, I don’t know if it has anything to do with the Empress’s clan brother. Lady Yin’s Yuan Chen and this subject’s daughter were originally engaged, but later on, this subject received a letter from someone else, stating that Yuan Chen had many lovers outside, and invited this subject’s daughter to go to Scholarflower Alley to investigate…”
Xiao Baoxin briefly explained the situation to Empress Wang, but before he could finish, Madam Yin exploded,
“It’s obvious that you and Yang Shao have a private relationship and you don’t want to ruin the marriage, so you actually targeted my son and caused his reputation to be ruined! To fulfill your reputation!
As expected, the Yuan Family knew about the incident at Scholarflower Alley and wanted to make a countercharge at her, pinning all the blame on her. But why was it Yang Shao again?
It was always Yang Shao?
She still remembered what Xiao Jing ‘ai said. In her previous life, her reputation with Yang Shao was ruined and the Yuan family broke off the engagement. In this life, according to the Yuan family’s set of combination punches, it actually went along with her previous life, tying her and Yang Shao together to ruin her reputation.
Killing someone was just a matter of nodding the head to the ground, but Madam Yin used a blunt knife to kill. She slowly cut the dead, and her heart was rotten to the point of stinking.
Too sinister!
Xiao Baoxin laughed coldly,”How could the Strange Dao raise children like Yuan Chen and Yuan Jiuniang?!””
“I’ve finally seen what it means to distort black and white. Yuan Chen was a good person, a pervert, and a playboy. At that time, there were many pairs of eyes watching him in Scholarflower Alley. Even if I can bribe one or two, can I bribe all of them?”
“Your Young Master’s actions are all in the eyes of others. If I say that I’m undefeated, Furcn won’t be able to clear his name!”
“Empress!”
Madam Yin was so angry that she trembled as she pointed at Xiao Baoxin.” You can see through Lady Xiao’s upbringing just like that. I’m an elder after all. If it wasn’t for the Empress being present, I’m afraid she would have come over to beat me up!”
You still know, Empress Wang Mo.
She thought so too. The eldest lady of the Xiao family had an imposing manner. Her eyes were filled with killing intent, and her beautiful face was red with anger.
It was only because Madam Yin took advantage of her seniority and was in front of her in the Jiaofang Palace that the Xiao family’s wife might really make a move…
Madam Yin was also a forty-somcthing-year-old woman, but she was fighting with a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl. If you argue with a young lady, even if you win, it’s not honorable. If he lost, it would be even more laughable. He couldn’t even win against a little girl. He was obviously in the wrong!
Empress Wang did not have a good impression of Madam Yin. Previously, she had pretended to seek justice for her daughter. Now, perhaps because of Xiao Baoxin’s anger, she did not feel anything for her love for her daughter, but she was focused on throwing dirty water on Xiao Baoxin.
One had to know how important a young lady’s reputation was. He clearly wanted to put the Xiao family’s lady to death.
His heart was vicious!
The way he looked at Madam Yin changed.
Madam Yin was completely unaware of it. Even if she had sensed it, she could only go all the way to the end and use the poisoned Yuan Jiuniang as an excuse. Otherwise, what could she do? Would she let her son be humiliated by Xiao Baoxin, who was born from a poor family and had a vulgar appearance?
She couldn’t tolerate it!

“What?”
Emperor Epsilon quivered and the ink on the brush shook onto the imperial edict. A drop of ink that was neither too big nor too small gradually expanded. However, he was not in the mood to look at it. He only grabbed the pen so excitedly that the veins on his hands were popping out.
“Wei Desheng, have you conveyed the message to me? Why was this pit getting bigger and bigger? How did Shi Ning get dragged into it?”
Wei Desheng laughed bitterly.” I understand. I have passed it to Lady Xiao according to Your Majesty’s instructions.” But… Madam Yin insisted that Lady Xiao had poisoned her son and even brought up Lady Xiao’s engagement. She insisted that Lady Xiao had framed her son in order to cancel the engagement.” “What engagement? Tell me everything clearly. “Emperor Yu Heng was getting impatient. He threw his pen aside and started to gossip.
Wei Desheng repeated Madam Xie’s words verbatim, and it was already exciting enough. Emperor Yu Heng listened with great interest and was about to fall into a daze.
“This Yuan Chen…You’re playing with flowers.” She knew how to play more than an emperor like him. She actually walked on the cutting edge of fashion and played with men.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he really had no appetite for men and wanted to vomit out his last night’s meal, he really wanted to give it a try.
“What kind of bullsh * t clan brother do you think you are? The Wang family was so old, how could they be so good? They might give birth to a few crooked melons and cracked dates. They even wanted to use the Wang family to pull the Empress onto a boat. This Madam of the Yuan family is not a good person! The Empress had sharp eyes and could still see it.”
“That’s right, the emperor hasn’t seen Eldest Lady Xiao’s temperament, but she really does resemble Great General Xiao, very fiery. He was afraid that Madam Yin had pushed him too hard.”
Emperor Yu Heng’s handsome face revealed a playful look, and a bunch of fine lines appeared at the corners of his eyes. His smile was as if he had stolen half a catty of oil.
“Alright, let it be. If she really didn’t do this, I won’t look down on her if she tolerates it.”
The Emperor’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. No one can tell what he is thinking at any time, Wei Desheng thought. He had not let down Madam Xie’s stack of banknotes. He had said all the good things he could say. He had a clear conscience when he received the money.
Emperor Yu Heng pondered for a moment before saying,””Go and bring this one’s servant-no, he’s now this one’s casual attendant. Go to the Xie family and let Xie Xian enter the palace to see this one.”
Wei Desheng did not dare to disobey. He ran from the afternoon until the sun was about to set.
After hearing Wei Desheng’s intention, Xie Xian didn’t even bat an eyelid.””The Empress has sent people to summon Xie Shan and the others into the palace. My sister Xie Wan is not among them, but I have already asked for the reason. It is indeed as Lady Xiao said. Yuan Jiuniang and the others took turns to force Lady Xiao to drink. In this case, if Lady Xiao hadn’t swapped the wine, Lady Xiao would have been poisoned.”
Wei Desheng picked up his teacup and took a big sip.” Yes.””
So what? He was just a eunuch who passed down orders. It had nothing to do with him.
No, it was related to the stack of banknotes.
“.. What do you mean?”
“Madam Yin’s complaint is unreasonable, it should be Eldest Lady Xiao who is complaining.”Xie Xian smiled faintly. “Darc I ask, do you want to return to the palace with me, or do you want to report first?”
Wei Desheng was stunned. He handed the teacup down.”Another one…”
He was so thirsty that the Emperor had kicked him out before he could even drink his saliva.
“The emperor has summoned the constant attendant for an audience.. Why isn’t the constant attendant rushing into the palace to see the emperor?”
