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

Chapter 398 Reaching out to take over the power
Qi Wu had something to do, so he left two guards with Wen Yu and went out.

Wen Yu went to see Mrs. Qi. Mrs. Qi was startled when she saw her miserable appearance. Wen Yu only said that Pingting was fine now, so that her mother-in-law could rest assured. I went back to the house to freshen up and change clothes. Although I was exhausted, I still had a lot to do.

Calling Zhang Moqing, he took Laba, the guards and Xiaoji and several other girls, and went to find Liu in an aggressive manner.

The husband left the house in a hurry and never came back. Later, my mother-in-law still confiscated the coffin. My father-in-law came back injured again. Coupled with what happened before, Ms. Liu was confused and didn't know how to clean up this mess.

The street was not peaceful yet, the incident happened suddenly, and no coffin was even prepared. Mrs. Zhu even lost her temper and couldn't come out of her yard. Ms. Liu frowned and calculated...

When Wen Yu came, he said as soon as he entered the door: "My grandfather has ordered that I am in charge of this house now. Madam Hou, please hand over the keys, accounts, and cards!" Xiao Jin'er is very powerful.

It's all the fault of this stinky woman!

Ms. Liu glared at Wen Yu fiercely: "How presumptuous! Who are you talking to?"

Wen Yu had just changed into the latest spring clothes and new jewelry. I hadn't slept well for several days, and I was afraid that my face would look ugly, so I applied the powder thickly to make it look even more radiant.

On the other hand, Mrs. Liu's face was sallow. Although she had not started to wear mourning, she had already put on plain clothes.

Wen Yu took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and said with a smile: "Who are you talking to... Li Da Niu's daughter-in-law?!"

Several people behind him laughed.

Especially Xiaoji, her temperament loves to praise others and criticize others. When she heard about Li Da Niu’s background and experience, she was even worse than me! At this time, he shook his fat body exaggeratedly and hummed loudly.

Mrs. Liu was so angry that she was half dead: "Wen Yu, don't forget, the emperor's decree has been issued, and the head of the Qi family is our Lord Marquis!"

"Won't the emperor be deceived? Look, the old man loves the most, Prince An, and the well-dressed Prince Wu... I'm afraid this prince won't be able to do it anymore, right? How can anything in this world remain unchanged? Oh, what if the emperor takes it back? If it is successful, then Qi Youduan will become the marquis with the shortest tenure in history, right?"

Mrs. Liu was furious: "You fart, get out of my yard!"

Wen Yu ignored her and continued: "Besides, although Li Daniu's crime is extremely heinous, she should be handed over to the Yamen to be punished according to law. How can anyone commit lynching? Qi Youduan killed his mother, which has been quite rare throughout the ages. Already..."

"You're so slanderous, come here, throw her out!" Mrs. Liu was simply annoyed to death.

Qi Youduan also left her with guards and a yard of slaves.

Wen Yu said: "Mrs. Hou, you haven't seen their methods yet? If you get in the way, it will be you next time..."

A chill ran down Ms. Liu's back: "Get out!" she screamed.

The guards came forward, and the people Wen Yu brought met them, and they were torn together. Wen Yu said: "Let me tell you, I have asked someone to invite someone from the Yamen. When my grandmother passed away, her symptoms were heart disease. Tan Shuya also died of heart disease. Just now, I heard that Li Danniu The symptoms are the same... This time, before the body is buried, we can find out what the real cause of death is!"

Mrs. Liu really wanted to kill the woman in front of her...

Who in the world would be willing to die and have his body disembowelled to find out the reason? How could such a pretty little lady speak so viciously: "Wen Yu, are you a devil? Did you say such a thing? It's not enough for you to harm us like this. You won't even let go of a dead person." Pass her?"

Wen Yu disagreed: "Who are the dead? There are too few people removing coffins and making boards? The evil ghost who killed my grandmother and stained the Bai family with blood deserves to die without a burial place! Don't worry, she can't enter the Qi family From the ancestral grave! So do you!”

"You!" Mrs. Liu held it back for a long time before she rushed over and grabbed Wen Yu and beat her...

Because that wouldn't work, filial piety couldn't suppress her. The two of them were completely at odds with each other, quarreling was useless, and killing her was not an option. What should I do?
Until the girl said at the door: "Fifth Grandma, Master Zhang is here!"

"Oh, Cao Cao will be here soon! Invite him in!" Wen Yu said with a smile.

Is it this person again? Ms. Liu felt exhausted physically and mentally.

Zhang Jiangqing came in, and Wen Yu hurriedly asked: "Brother Jiang Qing, is everything okay at home?"

Zhang Jiangqing also looked at Wen Yu and Zhang Moqing with concern, "Everyone is fine at home, are you two okay?"

"We are fine, but at home... Mrs. Hou is dead at home!"

Zhang Jiangqing frowned when he heard this tone. Although it didn't make you look sad, why was he so excited?

"There's no coffin for burial! Madam Hou, is she still in her room, right?" Wen Yu asked Mr. Liu, then turned to Zhang Jiangqing and said, "It's scary, I'm really not prepared at all."

Zhang Jiangqing shook his head: "I brought a thin coffin. It's okay to put it in temporarily. The past two days... it's been a bit chaotic."

"Brother Jiang Qing, have you brought Wu Zuo?"

"I brought it, but to find out the cause of death, we have to take it to South City..."

"Then..." Wen Yu said while looking at Ms. Liu. "Don't move! If you dare to act recklessly, I will fight you tooth and nail!" Ms. Liu pointed at them and shouted.

Wen Yu smiled and said, "Am I afraid? To be honest, if you die now, your death will be in vain!"

"What on earth are you going to do..." Liu was convinced.

"Hand over the accounts and cards. Then, you are only responsible for collecting Danniu Li and carrying her to the back yard. Find a woodshed to put her there first. After asking the Marquis, you can reason."

Mrs. Liu had no choice but to hand over everything belonging to the housekeeper and watched Wen Yu being carried away. I have made up my mind to let you die in my hands sooner or later, otherwise, I will never be happy again for the rest of my life!

……

Mrs. Zhou was at the second gate. She couldn't figure out what was going on outside and at home, but she had heard about Mrs. Tan's death. Afraid of getting in trouble, he ran away after seeing it was quieter outside.

Li Qun knew that King Wu was going to take action, so he made two preparations in advance. He predicted that if the action was too hasty, there would be little chance of success. If we can't capture the palace in one fell swoop and hold the emperor hostage... I'm afraid it will be over.

However, he can understand, but cannot interfere. Otherwise, if you get stuck too deep, you won’t be able to get out.

It really doesn't work...

If the King of Wu is captured, it would be a big deal to expose him for his bluster.

Hearing that it was quiet outside, I quickly called my son's family and took out the boxes I had prepared. There are new identities, money, and some land deeds and house deeds inside.

He told them to leave as soon as they could leave the city. He will arrange for someone to follow him, and then when he reaches the agreed place, he will be asked to open the letter and read it.

The younger son was confused, but his father always said the same thing. He could only obey and go back to clean up.

Li Qun silently straightened his clothes. He had to leave. He would come back after the limelight... and nothing would happen. Something's wrong... Oh!

……

The emperor's oral order was passed to other courts. Li Qihuan was surprised, happy and stupid. He didn't understand why the emperor had such an oral order?
Turning to look at his father, the prince had stood up safely and ordered people to change his clothes.

Li Qihuan's eyes were red and he was so excited that he couldn't help himself. These days, he was angry and frightened, jumping up and down, and never felt at ease.

My father, who has been ill for decades, is physically like a candle in the wind, but his heart is like an iron wall. Be unfazed by favors and humiliations, and face everything calmly.

With tears in his eyes, he walked over and personally helped the prince put it on: "Father, you are the backbone of my son!"

"Silly son, aren't you always protecting me? You are my backbone!"

"But when my son heard the news, he couldn't believe it was true."

"The situation is not bad, but it is not over either. We still have to hold on!"

……

In the court today, all the ministers looked panicked.

Li Qili stood in his old position, with a solemn expression on his face for the first time. The emperor was never seen. The imperial doctor said that the emperor never woke up.

How to do?
He had to come to the court. But it's no use coming. A reliable person has been arranged to deliver the message. The only thing we can count on now is that the emperor will wake up. One is to wait for support. Qi Youduan, it’s up to you at the critical moment!
Duke Xingguo... He turned around and looked for him in the crowd, but he was not there. The emperor has not yet handed him over to him, so the eight thousand ready-made elites can only watch but cannot be used!
Otherwise, my business will be over! Thinking that the old man Xingguo Gong was looking at him politely and at a distance, and that he was afraid of being misunderstood by the emperor if he got closer to him, he felt anxious and scratched his heart.

A strange combination of circumstances! Doesn't God really give me a chance?
"His Royal Highness is here!"

The prince wears a golden crown, has a noble demeanor and a graceful manner. Slowly walking in front of the officials, he was more serious than usual after such a big incident.

Li Qihuan followed closely. Today he was very energetic and had cold eyes.

The ministers looked at the prince and had an involuntary urge to worship him. His Highness has always been like this! When I was sick or in trouble, I was challenged by the emperor and scolded by the ministers. He is like this today...

Some ministers were in tears and fell to their knees involuntarily without making a sound.

The prince walked to where he usually sat. Although the sound was not loud, the officials at the scene almost held their breath, so they could still hear it very clearly. "Just now, Gu went to see the emperor. The emperor's condition is stable, but this is heartbreaking. The stability of the court is also the stability of the world. Gu is the first to oversee the country, and his abilities are limited. The key is to count on the ministers. Help. Let’s get through this extraordinary period together!”

The ministers knelt down and responded.

Li Qili bowed deeply, secretly hating that the prince's people had already taken control of the harem, right?
Qi Youduan...
