The Duke’s wife is beautiful but has a dark heart

Chapter 356: Diverting trouble to the east
Taisun returned to the East Palace and came back very late.

Feeling exhausted and depressed.

The prince watched silently for a long time, and saw that he still had no intention of confessing to him, and became a little frustrated.

"Qi Huan? Won't you tell your father?"

"Let's talk about it after you get well! My son has arranged all the family affairs."

Li Qihuan went on a killing spree in the East Palace. Everyone who had anything to do with that incident, or anyone who was suspected of being involved, was dead. Princess, he also asked Shi Shi to take action. She was not dead, but she was demented and stupid. She will never understand again in the future.

Then, he locked Xue Ying with the princess and told her: "Stay with her and take care of her, and fulfill your filial piety!"

There was no hesitation when giving the order, but after it was done, I felt sad in my heart. The East Palace is still just a flower stand, with nothing left behind. My own relatives have become like this...

How could he tell his father?

"Since it's our own family's business, as a father, you have to know something about it!"

Li Qihuan still refused: "The most important thing for you is to rest. If what your son said makes you unhappy, then won't these days be in vain?"

The prince smiled and said, "How can I rest when I have something on my mind? Besides, she is your mother and concubine after all, so she is different from others."

"Father..." Li Qihuan looked at the prince sadly.

The prince patted his arm: "After you left, my father also thought about it. In the past few years, your mother and concubine have indeed changed... Although you hide everything from each other, the changes in your tone, attitude, work, etc. are subtle, but the two of you have , they are all the closest people to the father, how could they be indifferent and unaware?
It's just...son, there is no perfect person in this world. To demand too much from others is to be unfair to them, which makes you sad. Especially your mother-in-law, she has endured much more than other concubines while following me. Especially, she gave birth to you...you don't know how grateful your father is. Even if she makes a big mistake, her father will show mercy to her. "

"Father, my son has shown mercy for you. From now on, she will be well-dressed and well-fed, someone will take care of her, she will have peace of mind, and will not know her joys and sorrows. She will surely live a long life!"

"Li Qihuan!" The prince understood, and his heart ached...

"Father..." Li Qihuan suddenly knelt down: "Dad! In the past, my son always felt depressed in his heart! Your Majesty, I know clearly that your health is not good, but you still choose to make you the crown prince. I obviously say that I love you and value you, but I still I feel particularly sorry for you because you are protecting him from disaster, but secretly it is because it is in his best interests to support you.

You drag your sick body... to serve as a target for him! Finally, in the past few years, my son has grown up and can help you. But he started to be wary again... he turned his hands upside down several times!
As a result, my son felt very excited! Since he does this, his son will become a problem for him! "

"But... my son has not been happy in the past two years. That day, when I saw you like that, I almost couldn't restrain myself and wanted to kill someone! Even, I killed my mother and my king..."

The prince was startled. Although he knew there was no one around him, he still looked around quickly.

"Father, now you have recovered. My son suddenly thought about it: Even if he can win this breath, so what? The whole world is not as important as your hair. My son just wants to be with you and does nothing. , I am only with you. I am also worried that if I continue, my son will one day only have eyes for that position..."

After the prince listened, he remained silent for a long time.

……

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Song Shang wrote to Wen Yu, asking her to make a visit.

Originally, the family's old friends from Qihou were coming and they had to wait at home. Wen Yu discussed with Qi Wu: "My cousin has something urgent to do with me. Why don't you stay at home and I'll go by myself!"

How could Qi Wu agree? He didn't refute, he just followed behind silently.

Wen Yu couldn't help but let him go.

Mrs. Song looked unhappy. When she saw Wen Yu, she pulled her hand and whispered, "I feel uneasy. Your cousin's attitude towards Han Bao'er is a little strange. I asked him for a long time, but he refused to say anything and just told me to leave it alone. Ah Yu, why don't you ask again for your aunt?"

Wen Yu patted her hand: "Aunt, are you still worried about my cousin's actions? There will be reasons for his attitude. And to be honest: Song Chihan's temperament really needs to change. If the little girl is like this, others will see her. Maybe it’s funny, but it won’t work anymore when you’re older! Think about it, when I was a kid in Songjiazhuang, I used to go up the wall and go down the river. If I still do that now, my mother-in-law wouldn’t look down on her!”

Mrs. Song burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Wen Yu added: "Now that you are not upright and can't change the stereotype, what should you do? Do you want her to stay at home and recruit a son-in-law?"

Mrs. Song shook her head: "That can't happen! She will have a younger brother in the future!"

"Yes! If she always has this temper, what lady won't choose her daughter-in-law? Even if she marries her cousin for her sake, who can allow her to do this? If she changes her temper at that time, she will suffer and be wronged."

Mrs. Song sighed: "Ayu, it was my aunt who spoiled her."

"That's not what I said! Who's grandmother doesn't dote on her little granddaughter! But now, she really has to start learning the rules."

"It's true what you said. If it were just for this reason, it would be okay, but your cousin is like that... you can ask again later."

"Don't worry, I'm asking. Hey, where's cousin Tao? Why haven't you seen him?" "Oh, your cousin said he was out on business!" The Song family is always busy, so Mrs. Song was not surprised.

After a while, Song Shang invited Qi Wu and Wen Yu to the study.

Wen Yu asked, "Is it Song Tao's business to find me?"

Song Shang smiled bitterly: "Not just that. This year is so interesting! Xu Er wanted to get Madam Xu drunk, and I asked Madam Xu to use her plan. Then Xu Er stole the key and opened the warehouse, and Song Tao and he brought things in. , before I came out, I was locked in for almost two days..."

Hearing this, Wen Yu chuckled: "This is really called catching a turtle in a urn! Two days! It's so cold, you didn't freeze to death in there, right?"

"It's not dead, but there's nothing in it, so it's quite choked."

"When we got the medicine that day, he was following us, right?"

"Yes, otherwise, how could he open the warehouse? He checked his residence in the mansion and found it was very clean. The guards arrested a few, but some of them slipped through the cracks. However, usually those who slipped through the cracks ran away. Those outside Check the house... Look!"

He pointed to a few packages on the table, "He has prepared a lot of things, including narcotics and poison..."

Wen Yu shook his head: "Madman! But if his people run away, will they report the news? Then the person behind it will not be caught... If Song Tao is caught, he should be tortured directly. Detaining him for two days is too much time." "

Song Shang glanced at Qi Wu and found it funny. This girl made the execution so easy... and she wasn't afraid that her husband would mind. But he found that Qi Wu's ten-thousand-year-old wooden face showed no expression at all.

"He recognized the real owner without even seeing him, and even after following him for a long time, he was always going round and round."

"Then when are you going to let him out? You have to see what he is trying to frame and where he is going to start!"

"Let's do it tomorrow. We'll shut it down for three days."

"Oh, tomorrow we are going to the princess's house as a guest... Can we do it tomorrow afternoon? I want to come and have a look!"

Song Shang was helpless: "Okay. Now that you're here, I'll open the door again!"

"Then be careful and don't let the person behind you rescue you!"

"Don't worry! Also... Wei Zhikuan has been instigating Song Chihan since he arrived in the capital." He pointed to a small bag and said, "I also prepared something for her."

Wen Yu was helpless: "It's all the fault of power and money! You think about how to tell your aunt, she's worried."

Qi Wu and Wen Yu came out. Qi Wu looked at Wen Yu and asked: "A Yu, why did Song Shang come to you to tell you this? Family scandals should not be made public, why did he tell you? Also, who wants to touch him? You guys express Brothers and sisters, why are we so close?”

Wen Yu thought to herself, it’s broken! The way she communicated with Song Shang in the past has become a habit. In the past, Qi Wuda was not around. How to explain this?
Qi Wu was still thinking: "Moreover, have the money and shares for opening the shop been sorted out and negotiated? Have the accounts been settled at the end of the year? You..."

Wen Yu's heart was pounding, she hadn't figured out what to say yet...

"Also, why do you have resentment against Song Tao? And Song Chihan, I have never heard you mention her. You are very good to Yuanyuan and Bao'er. Why is this?"

Wen Yu felt extremely regretful and said that she shouldn't have brought him here... How should I say this?

"Uh……"

Qi Wu became serious, "Wen Yu, are you hiding something from me?!"

Wen said hesitantly: "Uh. When I was a child, I was often at the Song family. My cousin and I were just like brothers and sisters."

Qi Wu shook his head: "Brothers and sisters are not like this either. My mother and uncles have a very good relationship, but it's not like what you just said..."

Wen Yu saw that he was really bad, he was "using his brain". If this stick is not firmly established, I will be in trouble.

He rolled his eyes and thought: "Actually, it's like this... Well... At that time, Song Tao... seemed to have taken a fancy to me."

"What?!" Qi Wu stopped "thinking" for a moment.

There is a way! Wen Yu secretly smiled: "Whenever he has something to do, he always comes to me. When Zhuzhu and I were working in the garden, he put down what he was doing and ran back and forth to help. He was still waiting for me halfway, saying this and that. He is a concubine and has a low status in the family. He may want to marry me and marry the Wen family, but how could I do that? "

Wen Yu looked at Qi Wu's livid face, "Then, I told the fifth cousin. The fifth cousin went to deal with him. He couldn't get it off his face. He probably hated me and his cousin. I occasionally found that, He is plotting against his cousin, so..."

Qi Wu was furious: Bastard! You dare to miss me!

Very good... It seems that I really have to come here tomorrow!
