Taking the blame for the fake daughter: After being released from prison, she went on a killing spre
Chapter 17: Buy First, Then Destroy
Ignoring the puzzled looks from others, Xu Zhang pulled Su Yunling in front of her and tore off her veil. But to her disappointment, Su Yunling still had ointment on her face, so her full appearance could not be seen clearly.
"I'm sorry, kid. I can't wait to..."
"It's okay, old madam." Su Yunling put her veil back on.
She knew that after her obvious hint, her grandmother would definitely take action when she returned.
The groundwork has been laid enough, now she just needs to wait for a suitable opportunity to successfully expose her identity.
Xu Zhang turned to look at Su Zhaohong with cold eyes, "I heard that you, a concubine's daughter, are capable of treating the emperor. My waist has been aching for many years, and I would like her to take some time to give me a few injections. I wonder if Lord Su would allow it?" Xu Zhang opened her mouth with sarcasm.
"Mother-in-law, this rebellious girl was just lucky enough to cure His Majesty's headache. She doesn't have any real ability. It's better for you not to take this risk."
"She is lucky enough to share His Majesty's worries, so she is naturally blessed. Is my life more precious than His Majesty's? If I were you, I would not think of touching her easily. If His Majesty still needs her one day, how would you report it?"
Obviously, Xu Zhang's intention to see a doctor was fake, and her real intention was to find an excuse to protect Su Yunling.
And her words did remind Su Zhaohong that he could not touch Su Yunling easily now.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, for your advice. I will not act rashly again."
Xu Zhang looked at Su Yunling again, her eyes full of tenderness, "Child, when are you free? Go and give me a couple of injections..."
"Yes, old lady..."
Xu Zhang turned and left. As soon as she reached the door, she bumped into the three brothers of the Su family who were coming towards her.
"Grandma...what's wrong with you?"
Xu Zhang looked at her three grandchildren, and a nameless anger shot up from her heart. "Your mother really loves you in vain. You can't even keep her dowry. What's the use of you..."
The three brothers were at a loss when faced with their grandmother's unwarranted anger.
Didn't my mother's dowry go to my younger sister as a dowry? Why is my grandmother so angry?
Xu Zhang glared at them fiercely and went straight to the front hall to meet Xu Handang who was waiting there.
Su Zhaohong, who had been angry but dared not speak, respectfully escorted them out of the Su Mansion.
As soon as the old couple got on the carriage, Xu Zhang looked around vigilantly and told Xu Handang her guess.
"I suspect that Su Yueying is not our granddaughter at all. Instead, it's the unpopular girl Yunling."
After hearing this, Xu Handang was not surprised at all. Instead, he calmly analyzed: "That girl has been deliberately leading us to guess her identity. She is pretending to be possessed and crazy. I am afraid there is something fishy going on."
It's not that Xu Zhang didn't see Su Yunling's intention, but she was more willing to believe in her eyes that were 70% similar to Xu Wanhua's.
"Send someone to check. Check the midwife who delivered Hua'er, as well as the maids who served Hua'er, one by one..."
Su Zhaohong sent his troublesome parents-in-law away and went straight to Liu's main courtyard.
Before I got close, I heard a loud noise in the yard. The old lady's scolding, the three brothers' questioning, and Liu's sobbing were intertwined together, making people feel upset.
And everything started with the dowry left by Xu Wanhua.
Su Zhaohong had agreed at the beginning that all these dowries would be included in Su Yueying's dowry list, but he did not expect that Liu would embezzle so much of it.
The old lady thought that even if these things were not used as Su Yueying's dowry, they should be locked in the treasury instead of being placed in Liu's room.
Liu looked at Su Zhaohong for help. All these things were compensation given to her by Su Zhaohong. She originally planned to sell them for silver, but then she found out that these good things could only be sold at a low price.
After selling it, it will be impossible to buy the same good thing again with the same amount of money.
That was why Liu was reluctant to sell them and kept them as her own savings, thinking that after a long time, who would remember that these things belonged to Xu Wanhua?
These things were owed to her by Xu Wanhua. Who let her occupy the position of Su Zhaohong's wife for more than 20 years? Now that she is dead, she still refuses to give up the position. Why?
Not only did she want to snatch Xu Wanhua's dowry, she also wanted to cripple her three sons and sell her lowly daughter to a brothel to be raped by men.
Su Zhaohong looked at his three sons who were waiting for him to explain, and his face showed displeasure.
"You three ungrateful bastards, ask yourselves, has Aunt Liu ever treated you unfairly since you came into the family?"
The three brothers looked at each other and remained silent.
Su Yunling, who was staying out of the matter, laughed when she heard this. Liu was indeed too good to her three brothers.
At least that's the case on the surface.
My eldest brother was once bitten by a poisonous snake, and it was Liu who desperately sucked out the poisonous blood for him. Unfortunately, he didn't know that it was Liu who put the snake on his bed, and the reason why she was not afraid of being poisoned was because the fangs had been pulled out long ago.
The second brother broke his leg while riding a horse and needed a special medicinal herb to make a healer's ointment. It was Liu who went up the mountain personally to look for the herb for three days and two nights, brought it back, and helped the second brother stand up again.
But he didn't know that the reason why the horse he was riding lost control was because Liu had fed it medicated grass. As for the medicinal materials needed for the intermittent ointment, they were all made up by her after she bribed the doctor.
The third brother molested the granddaughter of the chief priest in the Imperial College and was about to be expelled. Su Zhaohong was too embarrassed to speak up for him. It was only because Liu put aside her dignity and begged for forgiveness that he was able to stay and continue studying.
No one knew that he happened to have lustful thoughts about that woman because he was drugged by Liu.
Liu did all these just to win people's hearts.
What she really wants to do is to control them and then destroy them step by step.
In the original plot, these three cheap brothers also had a bad ending. They were sent to the battlefield against Beiyuan by Su Yueying to delay their army from the southern expedition, but they waited for no reinforcements or food, and in the end, not even their bodies were left.
They would never have thought that Su Yueying had never sent them reinforcements or food supplies, because she had already secretly reached a consensus with the King of Beiyuan to exchange the five cities north of Dayin for Beiyuan's high-quality horse breeds and handsome men.
But she couldn't bear the stigma of being a fool for ceding territory in exchange for peace, so she sent her three closest brothers to defend the northern border.
Letting them die on that land would not only save her from the stigma of being a traitor, but would also earn her some sympathy.
The three brothers were her abandoned children from the very beginning.
Later, Su Yueying built a cenotaph for them and shed two tears in front of the tomb, earning him a reputation as a benevolent monarch.
"Brothers, you can understand me, right? The horses and men of Beiyuan are stronger than our Great Yin. I am doing this for the future of Great Yin. You will be happy for me in the underworld, right?"
Su Yunling couldn't help feeling nauseous when she recalled this.
Live it!
Since they wanted to recognize the thief as their mother, she naturally had to respect their wishes.
Back to reality, I heard Su Zhaohong say earnestly, "Although Aunt Liu is not of high status, she treats you as her own children. It's just giving her some of your mother's belongings as compensation. What's wrong with that?"
Perhaps the three brothers all remembered all the good things Liu had done for them and no longer had any objections.
Liu also stood up and said at the right time: "I know that I am of low status and don't deserve to have sons like you. But who made me not have the blessing of giving birth to a son? I can only treat you as my sons one-sidedly. You can call me shameless or laugh at me for overestimating my own abilities! I am willing to treat you well. The reason why I put these things left by your mother in a separate room is to leave a way out for you three brothers..."
After hearing this, Su Yunling no longer wanted to listen.
Liu is indeed a woman who came from a brothel. She is really good at coaxing men.
But why haven't I seen Su Yueying for so long? The house is so lively, there is only one possibility that she is not here, that is, she went out to look for her "dogs".
Three days later, the floating body of a Taoist priest was salvaged from the moat. After examination by the coroner, it was found that the man had been attacked before his death.
His eyes were blinded and he fell into the river and drowned.
