Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

 After returning from Jiang Mansion, Jing Shu followed the old lady to Anxi Hall and told the old lady what she heard at the banquet that Zhao Yuan'er had brought Zhou Yi's only son back without authorization.

The old lady is such a shrewd person. She guessed Zhao Yuan'er's plan after listening to Jing Shu's words.

If the only son of the Zhou family had a problem, how could Zhou Yi focus on defending against the enemy? If the war went unfavorably, Emperor Ming would definitely bring up the idea of ​​​​peace again, so his precious granddaughter Qingluan would have to be sent to make peace.

 So, the old lady was really thinking about Zhou Yi being able to win, so that she could change the fate of her granddaughter and her husband.

The old lady knows that Jingshu is a careful person and will not talk nonsense if she is unsure about things. Therefore, among the three grandsons-in-law, the one whom the old lady trusts the most is Jingshu.

 The old lady suddenly heard the bad news. Although she was anxious, she was helpless.

 After all, although the Zhenguo government has been on good terms with General Zhou's government for generations, it is not easy for them to interfere in other people's family affairs.

The old lady clenched her hands anxiously and sighed: "Yuan'er has been arrogant since she was a child. If she really has such vicious thoughts, your uncle Zhou is so young and only a single person. Now your Uncle Zhou is fighting against the Huns. At this critical juncture, if this kid Yuan'er really causes irreversible disaster, oh! Wouldn't it cost your Uncle Zhou's life?"

Jingshu naturally did not want Zhou Yi to lose on the battlefield. After she heard about this, she had a plan in her heart, otherwise she would not have been in a hurry to tell the old lady about it.

Seeing that the old lady was anxious, Jingshu hurriedly replied: "Of course we can't get involved in the affairs of Uncle Zhou's family, but the eldest daughter of Uncle Zhou's family can."

Zhou Yi's first wife gave him three daughters. The eldest daughter married Huang Jin, the guard general of the capital. The Huang family and the old lady are cousins, so this marriage was arranged by the old lady as a matchmaker.

When the old lady heard her granddaughter-in-law's suggestion, she couldn't help stroking her hands happily and said, "Look at me, I'm so old and confused now. I actually forgot that Jiang Ning is there."

 Zhou Yi’s eldest daughter’s name is Zhou Jiangning.

With that said, the old lady immediately turned to Nanny Xu and said, "Hurry up and get the pen and ink. I will edit a letter for Jiang Ning right now."

Mama Xu responded and got pen, ink, paper and inkstone. After the old lady wrote in her own handwriting, she handed the letter to Grandma Xu. He repeatedly warned: "Find a safe person and rush to the Huang family in Jingjing. You must hand this letter into the hands of the eldest girl of the Zhou family."

Aunt Xu took the order and left. The old lady breathed a long sigh of relief. Looking at Jingshu sitting silently aside, she couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pull her granddaughter-in-law to her side, patted her hand and said: "It is a great blessing for the Duke of our town to have such a capable daughter-in-law like you. My grandmother is old now, and I feel very relieved that you are taking care of the palace."

Since the old lady and the eldest princess planned to surrender Qingluan to the Murong family in Jiangdong last year, Qingluan was seriously ill and Jingshu accompanied the old lady to the palace for a visit. Qingluan confessed to the old lady that she would not marry anyone other than Li Ling. Voice.

Although the old lady had noticed her granddaughter's worries a long time ago, she never imagined that she would be so infatuated with her grandson. Although the old lady was angry, looking at her granddaughter's sad look, the old lady was not without a trace of emotion in her heart.

The old lady even considered that if her granddaughter continued to be so stubborn, she would give up her old face and try every means to get her married into the family, even if she was on an equal footing with Jingshu as her grandson's equal wife, even if her grandson couldn't hold it in his heart. She, the old lady also recognized her.

 At least she has put an end to her granddaughter's obsession. With her protection, her paranoid granddaughter will not be bullied. However, now the old lady has completely given up this idea.

 Because this government house really cannot do without Jing Shu.

Even though she has been shrewd all her life, she relies more and more on this grandson-in-law in some difficult matters.

Zhou Yi's eldest daughter Zhou Jiangning has rarely been home since Zhao Yuan'er entered the house. She received the old lady's letter and rushed back to Zhou's house overnight.

Zhou Jiangning is a few years older than Zhao Yuan'er, because she is the eldest daughter in the family and has a strong and aggressive temperament.

Zhao Yuan'er had always been very disgusted with this stepdaughter. Suddenly she heard that Zhou Jiangning was back. Zhao Yuan'er was full of reluctance. She led a group of servants and went straight to the house. When she saw Zhou Jiangning, she asked with a cold face: "Big lady" When you return home, why don’t you bring someone back in advance to inform you.”

Zhou Jiangning never took Zhao Yuan'er as his little stepmother seriously. She was directing the maids to carry luggage into the house. When she heard this, she just glanced at Zhao Yuan'er and snorted unceremoniously: "This is my home. I can come back whenever I want, so do I need to inform you?"

Zhao Yuan'er was furious, pointed at Zhou Jiangning and said sternly: "I am married to your general's palace by decree. You should call me mother at least. Where does this come from? For a junior to talk to an elder like this, Is there any more heavenly law?"

Zhou Jiangning glanced at Zhao Yuan'er with disdain, and said with a sneer: "This is the rule of my Zhou family. Stepwives are looked down upon. If you think it is unreasonable, just find excuses from the one who proposed the marriage for you in the first place." With that said, Zhou Jiangning raised his head, passed Zhao Yuan'er, and entered the house.

Zhao Yuan'er was so angry that she stamped her feet, pointed at Zhou Jiangning's back and cursed for a while, and was finally persuaded by her personal nanny to go back to the house.

Since Zhao Yuan'er married Zhou Yi, not only has she not been favored by her husband, but she has also been angered by her stepson and stepdaughter. She is a narrow-minded person, and she has become depressed over the years, and her character has become even more twisted.

Zhao Yuan'er suffered a lot of grievances from Zhou Jiangning. When she returned to the main room, she was so angry that she slapped the table so hard that it made a loud bang and cursed: "I have finally seen through. The Zhou family is full of ambitions. Every good thing. Wow! Since you dare to bring bad luck to me, then don’t blame me for being cruel!"

As she spoke, she angrily ordered the nun: "Tell them to put that thing into Zhou Jiangning's food."

“Hmph! Doesn’t she always like to go against me? Then let her go to the underworld with her **** brother to keep company.”

The rumors outside are not groundless. Zhao Yuan'er took Zhou Yi's only son back to the house without permission, with the intention of harming him and making plans for herself in the future.

She got a chronic poison, which is colorless and odorless. It can kill people after taking it for a month. The deceased seems to have died of typhoid fever, and the real cause of death cannot be found at all.

In the seven or eight days since she took Zhou Yi's son back, Zhao Yuan'er has been ordering people to secretly mix the poison into his food, hoping to use this private and despicable method to get rid of Zhou Yi's son.
