Chapter 204 Weng Chuchu
Song Yaoyao: [Tell me quickly! What's the secret behind this beautiful woman? ]
Guagua: [There are many things involved here, especially party disputes.
Host, listen to me.
Let’s start with Weng Hanmin.
As mentioned earlier, Weng Hanmin served as the second-rank minister of the imperial court. He was a neutral figure who was only loyal to the emperor.
Now the emperor of Tianxuan Kingdom is old and his health is getting worse.
The fighting among the princes became more and more intense.
The princes tried every means to win over the ministers in the court.
At this time, many ministers became more cautious. They would not easily choose sides. If they accidentally chose the wrong side, they would be executed along with their entire family. 】
In the video, the princes of Tianxuan Kingdom stayed with their advisers every day, thinking of various ways to win over the court officials.
Winning over, flattering, and fawning over others, if that doesn't work, then using covert tactics, poisoning, sending beauties, and arranging marriages...
The conspiracies were endless and made Song Yaoyao's scalp tingle.
Song Yaoyao: [This is too scary. I could get into trouble if I’m not careful.
By the way, what does this have to do with Weng Chuchu? 】
Guagua: [That’s a big deal.]
The Weng family dotes on their daughters, and Weng Hanmin especially dotes on Weng Chuchu, the legitimate daughter.
This daughter is not only beautiful, but also very talented.
The Weng family never thought about what benefits they could gain from using Weng Chuchu to form an alliance.
They only hope that their daughter can marry into a good family and live a peaceful life.
This is just what Weng Hanmin and Mrs. Weng think, others don’t think so. 】
Song Yaoyao: [Could it be that Weng Hanmin is a neutral party, and those princes can't do anything to him, so they set their sights on Weng Chuchu? ]
Guagua: [That’s right! This is one of the reasons.
On the other hand, Weng Chuchu’s maternal grandfather was Qi Weitian, the Duke of Tianxuan Kingdom, who commanded an army of 200,000 but was also a neutral party.
If he could marry Weng Chuchu, he would get the support of the two forces of Zhongshu Ling and Zhenguo Gong, so they all kept their eyes on Weng Chuchu, trying to get her attention by trying to curry favor with her or using the beauty trap.
The Third Prince also wanted to marry Weng Chuchu, but he felt that fawning on her would not necessarily win her favor, so he chose another method: playing dirty.
In the video, in addition to Mrs. Weng, Weng Hanmin also has three concubines in the backyard: Aunt Lan, Aunt Mei, and Aunt Lian, and he has several illegitimate sons and daughters.
Among them, Weng Ci Xin, the concubine born to Concubine Lian, could not hide her malice towards Weng Chu Chu.
Weng Ci Xin felt that Weng Chu Chu was prettier than herself, more talented than herself, and her maternal family was also better than hers... In short, she was better than herself in everything.
In particular, when the mansion bought new clothes and jewelry for the changing seasons, it was always the legitimate daughter, Weng Chuchu, who would choose first, and only after the rest would it be the turn of the concubines.
Why? We are all daughters of the Weng family. Why should the things that Weng Chuchu doesn't want be given to these concubines?
Weng Cixin was not convinced!
Weng Ci Xin didn't even think about it. The treatment of legitimate and illegitimate children has been different since ancient times.
Mrs. Weng was already a very tolerant mother. She never deducted food and clothing from her illegitimate sons and daughters.
Some stepmothers treat illegitimate sons and daughters in such a way that not only can they not wear the clothes left over by the legitimate daughters, but even having enough to eat becomes a problem, and the sons and daughters are subjected to overt and covert abuse from their stepmothers.
It was rare to have a legitimate mother like Madam Weng, but Weng Cixin was still not satisfied and was full of resentment towards both Madam Weng and Weng Chuchu.
The Third Prince sent secret guards to keep an eye on the Minister of the Central Secretariat's Mansion for a while and discovered that Weng Ci Xin resented Madam Weng and Weng Chuchu. After the Third Prince learned of this news, he prepared to take advantage of it.
Song Yaoyao: [Are you trying to use Weng Cixin to harm Weng Chuchu? ]
Guagua: [Not bad.
I have tried this once before, but it was unsuccessful. 】
Song Yaoyao: [How did you harm people? Tell me in detail! ]
Gua Gua: [The Third Prince wanted to use Weng Ci Xin, so he met with her in private and promised that as long as Weng Ci Xin worked well for the Third Prince, he would give Weng Ci Xin a position as a concubine after the matter was accomplished.
Weng Ci Xin already hated Weng Chu Chu to the core, but she didn't expect such a pleasant surprise, so she agreed without hesitation.
Some time ago, the Third Prince sent someone to give Weng Ci Xin a packet of medicine powder and asked her to sprinkle the powder on Weng Chuchu's rouge.
This is a powder that can disfigure a person.
The Third Prince had a good idea. When Weng Chuchu was disfigured and became ugly and no one wanted to marry her, he would appear like a savior and marry her.
Weng Chuchu will definitely be grateful. 】
In the video, a man dressed as a secret guard gave Weng Cixin a packet of medicine powder and told her what to do next...
Ning Chaorui and Ning Chaoyun watched everything in the video in shock. Jealousy can make a person willing to become a knife in the hands of others. This is too...
They can't describe the feeling in their hearts!
Song Yaoyao: [Isn't Weng Chuchu's face fine now? This thing must have failed.
I just want to know, how did Weng Chuchu figure this out? 】
Gua Gua: [Weng Ci Xin bribed a second-class maid in Weng Chu Chu's yard. The maid sneaked into Weng Chu Chu's boudoir and poured the powder into her rouge. Because she was nervous, some of the powder spilled outside and she didn't notice.
When Weng Chuchu's maid was putting makeup on her, she saw the white powder.
She picked up the rouge and looked at it carefully. She found that the rouge was different from when she used it yesterday. It was obviously tumbled over by someone. She immediately told Weng Chuchu about it.
After hearing this, Weng Chuchu called a doctor to check the rouge, and confirmed that disfiguring powder was mixed into it.
Weng Chuchu asked everyone not to make it public and secretly investigated the matter. In the end, he found out that it was the second-class maid. When he sent people to capture the second-class maid, the maid was already dead.
The clues are cut off here. 】
In the video, it was Weng Ci Xin who bribed the second-class maid, who drugged the girl. Eventually, the truth was revealed and the investigation was about to be traced back to the second-class maid, when the Third Prince's secret guards took action and killed the maid directly.
Song Yaoyao: [The first attempt failed, but the Third Prince won't give up. There will be a second attempt, right?]
Guagua: [That’s right, how can I give up if I haven’t achieved my goal?
Today is the second calculation. 】
Song Yaoyao: [What? Coming to the restaurant for dinner today was also a plot?
Guagua, tell me quickly, what’s going on?】
Gua Gua: [Today, Weng Chuchu and some of her close friends made an appointment to have dinner at the restaurant.
When the Third Prince got the news, he asked Weng Cixin to find a way to come to the restaurant with him so that he could implement the next plan. 】
