The Red Mansion's Doting Wife Maniac

Chapter 20

Chen Yun shook his head and said, "You can't expect everyone to have the same bottom line and morality as you..." After a pause, "But there is no conclusive evidence to prove that it was the work of the Tan family and the Zhongshun Palace. So, at present, I I think I should reserve my opinion first, and don’t be blinded by preconceived ideas and think that they did it.”

"Who else would target your aunt like this?" Daiyu frowned.

Chen Yun said with a smile, "You can't say that. If they followed their previous practices, they should have ruined the marriage before it was settled, so that my aunt could not marry your father smoothly."

"Then how did they do it?"

Daiyu felt that it was necessary to ask clearly, if she met these people in the future, she must know how to deal with them, right?

"In the past? It was nothing more than using power to force people to give up their desire to marry my cousin." Chen Yun thought for a while and said.

Daiyu was thoughtful, "But I remember you said before that my father is not afraid of the power of the Zhongshun Palace, if he continues to repeat the old tricks, it will be of no use to my father."

"You're right..." Chen Yun took a serious look on his face, "From this point of view, maybe they can't destroy this marriage, so they will start with you and provoke the relationship between you and my aunt first."

The conflict between the original wife's daughter and the step-wife has existed since ancient times. There is a step-wife who is kind and able to win over the original wife's daughter-in-law, but most of them are superficial, and they just want to marry the original wife's daughter-in-law safely.

As for those who treat the daughter-in-law harshly, there is no need to mention it at all, and it has no reference value.

"Didn't you just say that you can't preconceive that they did it?" Daiyu wondered.

Chen Yun raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "But this does not prevent me from assuming that they are behind the scenes."

How is this different from deception?Daiyu endured it, but didn't ask.

"The hands of Prince Zhongshun's mansion have all reached Duke Rongguo's mansion?" Daiyu suddenly remembered something and asked in surprise.

Chen Yunjue was not surprised, "What are the rules of Rongguo Duke's Mansion? You have also lived in this mansion for a while, so you must be clear about the situation in this mansion. Seven seven eight eight."

Hearing this, Daiyu sighed in her heart, thanks to Chen Yuncheng's reminder, she was on guard, otherwise she might have become a laughing stock in Beijing.

"Don't say anything about this matter for the time being, and pretend that you don't know anything. When I go back, I will ask my elder brother to investigate. If it is really the Tan family and Prince Zhongshun who are playing tricks..."

Chen Yun said with a slightly cold expression, "Then this matter will never end."

It was the first time Daiyu saw Chen Yunjue's face so cold, she couldn't help being taken aback.

"What are you going to do?" Daiyu couldn't help asking.

Chen Yun shook his head, "What can I do?"

"Then you just..." He said so sharply.

Chen Yun smiled lightly, "I can't do anything, but I can tell the matter to my second grandpa, my aunt finally got a good marriage, and the Tan family and Prince Zhongshun's mansion came to sow discord, but my second grandpa I have endured them for many years, and my patience has reached its limit, if they suddenly know that the Tan family and the Zhongshun Palace are still playing tricks behind their backs, they will definitely be overwhelmed."

"From what you said, the Song family is more powerful than the Zhongshun Palace and the Tan family?" Daiyu was a little surprised, and the confidence in Chen Yun's words was undoubtedly revealed.

Chen Yun raised his eyebrows, "When did I say that the Song family is not as powerful as the Zhongshun Palace and the Tan family?"

"Isn't the Zhongshun Palace a royal clan? The Song family..." No matter how you say it, it is impossible to be more noble than the royal family.

Chen Yun said with a smile, "This power is not only about birth. The Zhongshun Palace is certainly a royal family, but King Zhongshun failed to seize the heir in the past, and now he can only show the majesty of the royal family..." After a pause, "Do you know what? For power?"

"A powerful person?" Daiyu asked.

Chen Yun borrowed, "Yes and no, power refers to power and power."

Daiyu thought about it.

"Although Prince Zhongshun is a relative of the emperor, after failing to seize the heirloom in the past, the emperor deprived him of all the rights in his hands, and the power, those left in his hands can bully and bully such a fallen honorable family as the Duke of Rongguo. At home, like my second grandfather, the second-rank minister of the Ministry of Officials, such an important official who holds real power in his hands is not something he can manipulate at all." Chen Yun explained.

"If the Song family is more powerful than Prince Zhongshun, why hasn't your aunt married yet?" Daiyu was very puzzled.

Chen Yun sighed, "My second grandfather is a traditional and pedantic person who disdains to use power to overwhelm others. If others are afraid of being loyal to the royal family and dare not marry my aunt, such people are not worthy of being entrusted to him for life. The second grandpa also took advantage of his loyalty to the palace to investigate these people, and secondly..."

Seeing that Chen Yun was hesitating to speak but stopped, Daiyu was puzzled, "Why don't you say it?"

"Secondly, my second grandpa really likes Aunt Tang's former fiancé, and he is also an old acquaintance with Master Tan's family. Who would have thought that Tan Yichun was killed on the way to take the exam, and the two families turned against each other because of this..."

Chen Yun excused, "Second grandpa felt sorry for his old friend who lost his beloved son. Although he was angry in his heart, he didn't have any intention of revenge. However, the Tan family and Zhongshun Palace thought that my second grandpa was afraid of them. In the past two or three years, it has intensified. The sympathy and old love I had had also faded away during these years."

Hearing this, Daiyu understood what Chen Yunjue meant.

Now that the old love is gone, there is only enmity left between the two families, and if he destroys his daughter's marriage, it will be revenge and resentment, and there will be no old love to remember.

"Your second grandfather was kind-hearted, but instead fueled the arrogance of the Tan family and Prince Zhongshun." Daiyu sighed.

Chen Yun excused, "This is the end of the matter, it's useless to think too much. If they are really behind the scenes this time, then there is nothing to say. Let's settle the old and new scores together."

"Hmm." After receiving some explanation from Chen Yun, Daiyu's brows and eyes were filled with joy.

Chen Yun borrowed, "Happy?"

"I'm not unhappy." Daiyu insisted.

Chen Yun was amused, "Okay, since this is the case, let's eat, if you don't eat, it will be cold."

"Are you eating with me?" Daiyu asked.

Chen Yun shook his head, "I've already eaten it, eat it quickly, don't go on a hunger strike any more in the future, even if you get angry again, you can't stop eating in anger, this body belongs to you, and you are the one who suffers when you are sick yourself, no one can bear the pain for you."

After being scolded by Chen Yun for a long time, Daiyu was not angry, and picked up chopsticks to eat with a smile on her face.

After all, she is a girl from a scholarly family, and Daiyu eats very politely.

Chen Yunjuan sat opposite her and watched her eat. After she finished eating, Chen Yunjuan still didn't disappear, so he talked with her for a while.

Seeing that it was getting late, Yuyan and the others knocked on the door, "Miss."

Chen Yun stopped talking with Daiyu, and Daiyu raised her voice, "What's the matter?"

"It's getting late, if the girl doesn't want to eat, why not..." Before finishing speaking, Daiyu's words came from the room, "I've already eaten, take away the leftovers."

Surprised, Yuyan pushed the door open and went in, looked at the food that had been touched, blinked her eyes, and was sure that Daiyu had eaten it, she did not ask any further questions, and cleaned up the leftovers together with Xueyan.

Seeing the two maids going out with leftovers, Daiyu turned her head and was about to talk to Chen Yunjue, when Chen Yunjue disappeared right in front of her eyes.

The smile on Daiyu's face froze, and she lowered her eyes.

When can I talk to Chen Yunju without any scruples?It is always expected to rise and disappear like this.

As soon as Yuyan came back, she found that Daiyu was in a bad mood again.

Yuyan: "??" The girl is getting older, and her thoughts are becoming more and more difficult to guess.

On the other side, Chen Yun returned to the house, turned over and was about to fall asleep, when he heard the sound of the system in his ears.

[You once again solved your host's problems, and now rewards are issued. 】

[Reward: Perfect calligraphy. 】

[Quanjing Calligraphy: It takes time to practice and master it. 】

[Please make persistent efforts to solve problems for your host. 】

When Chen Yunzhan appeared in Daiyu's room, he heard the prompt from the system asking him to solve Daiyu's problems.

So he kept guiding Daiyu to talk, but he didn't think Baoyu's few words could make Daiyu sad, and the chat later didn't lead Daiyu to tell the real reason, but even so, the task was accomplished.

So... what is Daiyu worried about?

Chen Yun was a little confused for a while.

The next morning, Chen Yun went to the academy as usual, and after school, he went to find his elder brother Chen Yunxian.

"Yunyu? Why are you here?"

The general examination has been completed, but the result has not been released yet, so Chen Yunxian is still studying at home and does not go out if there is nothing to do.

Chen Yun borrowed to grind Chen Yunxian and let the boy out.

The young man was also sensible, and closed the door when he went out.

Seeing this, Chen Yunxian simply stopped writing, "Come on, don't worry about it, tell me, what's the matter?"

"Brother, can you send someone to investigate the Tan family or Prince Zhongshun's mansion?" Chen Yun borrowed.

Chen Yunxian raised his eyebrows, "It's fine, what are they doing?"

"Yesterday, Jia Baoyu from Rongguo Duke's Mansion heard some words from somewhere, and ran to Miss Lin to chew her tongue. The meaning behind the words was that after the Tang aunt married into the Lin family, there would be no place for Daiyu in the Lin family. The meaning of provocation is too obvious.

But this is obviously not something that simple Jia Baoyu can think of. I think someone should have said something in front of him, using him to sow discord in front of Miss Lin, in order to cause conflicts between Miss Lin and Aunt Tang. "

Hearing this, Chen Yunxian frowned, "Do you suspect that it was the Tan family or Prince Zhongshun's mansion?"

"Except for the two of them, no one would be so persistent in targeting Tang Auntie." Chen Yun said honestly.

Chen Yunxian laughed, "Since that's the case, why did you ask me to investigate? Don't you think they did it?"

"I believe it was them in my heart, but there is no evidence. Even if they did it, I still have to hold evidence..." Chen Yun was very frank, "I can't just give it to them directly because I believe it was done by them in my heart." Convicted?"

When Chen Yunxian heard the words, he appreciated his approach, "Being impartial, not being influenced by emotions, being frank and upright, you can be called a gentleman."
