Chapter 212
Fu Lingtian didn't flinch, and sneered: "They are women and children? Why do I only see the rich wolf? Grandma is old and was deceived by them. Could it be that my father is also confused? Even if you are all confused, I am still very clear! As long as I let go today Let them pass, sooner or later they will bite back and will never show mercy."

The old lady didn't decide to release Mrs. Chen's mother and son at first, but she was shaken in her heart, trying to test Fu Lingtian's intentions, and made trouble like this if she didn't want to.

The old lady saw that Fu Lingtian was heartbroken, while Mrs. Chen's mother and son were trembling, she couldn't help but beat her chest and said: "It's all a foolish old man. The family that was originally good has turned into this."

Seeing that his mother was sad, Fu Tao expressed his dissatisfaction with Fu Lingtian's abnormality today: "Look, what kind of situation have you forced the old lady into? I thought you could have some promise, but I didn't expect you to have no filial piety."

Fu Lingtian looked at the mess in front of him, and said decisively: "Okay, you are a kind father and a filial son, I am making trouble for no reason, and I have no tolerance for it. Then I will leave, and I will not hinder your eyes!"

As Fu Lingtian said, he shook Fu Tao's hand vigorously, wanting to leave.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Fu Tao stepped forward with the other hand to continue to grab his son, but unfortunately, Fu Lingtian turned his head angrily and bumped into him.

After hearing a crisp slap, everyone stood there dumbfounded.

Fu Lingtian covered his face in disbelief: "You hit me?"

Fu Tao hastily denied: "No, it's not."

Fu Lingtian raised his head and smiled sadly: "Okay, very good!" Then he quickly ran up the wall and ran away.

The old lady was stunned: "Tao'er, what have you done?"

Fu Tao also felt pain in his heart, but when he thought that Fu Lingtian didn't take himself seriously, he said stiffly: "The son didn't want to beat him... Forget it, how can there be an old lady in his eyes, and how can I have a father like me? Good for him to learn a lesson."

Mrs. Chen and Fu Lingyu secretly exchanged a proud look. Mrs. Chen stepped forward and respectfully said to the old lady: "Old lady, this soup is getting cold soon. Don't worry about getting sick. You can worry about the eldest son's affairs slowly."

Fu Tao said impatiently: "What are you doing so much, why don't you stop serving the old lady."

He didn't drive Madam Chen away, but asked her to serve the old lady. Madam Chen was overjoyed, and obediently helped the old lady into the house.

Fu Lingyu also stepped forward and said timidly: "Father, it seems that the gap between elder brother and me can't be eliminated. I'm already useless, and father can't help me any more. I'll go to elder brother tomorrow... "

Fu Tao withdrew his gaze from where Fu Lingtian left and said, "You don't think it's messy enough? It's all caused by your mother and son. Your elder brother doesn't want to see you again, so why go to him?"

Fu Lingyu shrank back with some fear and said: "These children know it all, so the child wants to tell the eldest brother that as long as he is willing to come back, mother and I will leave. In this way, father and grandmother don't have to make troubles, and I will be counted In the end, Heniang will do something for the mansion, and do a little bit of filial piety for a son."

Fu Tao looked at Fu Lingyu who was like a frightened bird, thinking how glamorous, noble and high-spirited this son was when he was by his side, but now he has become like this, fearing that he will be kicked out the next moment, as cowardly.

After all, it is the unbroken blood, Fu Tao waved his hand: "He is going to leave by himself, what are you looking for? You and your mother take care of the old lady first, and don't let her get angry. I will take care of your elder brother. Lesson, don't worry about it."

After Fu Tao left, Fu Lingyu straightened his body, his eyes were cold, and he thought to himself that Fu Lingtian wanted to drive him and Mrs. Chen away again?Hmph, I'm afraid the one who won't come back in the end is Fu Lingtian!

In the palace, Empress Xiao looked at her long nails that had just been painted with Kou Dan with satisfaction, and blew on them lightly, her vermilion lips parting slightly: "Not bad, thank you!"

Several court ladies who had been on tenterhooks were overjoyed and thanked each other.

The court ladies of Tu Koudan went down to receive the reward for Empress Xiao, only then did Eunuch Deng say: "Madam, Fu Lingtian and Duke Zhen have fallen out with their son, and it seems that there will be no reconciliation in the near future."

Empress Xiao was not surprised: "This palace has long said that Fu Lingtian may not be able to fight against a woman in a deep house."

Eunuch Deng even claimed: "Your Majesty, although we have lost some dead men from the Xiao family, letting Fu Lingtian get out of the Duke's Mansion means that Zhang Qingchen has cut off his support and will be at the mercy of your Majesty from now on." .”

Empress Xiao was not happy: "Don't forget, they still have Concubine Jia."

Eunuch Deng didn't take it seriously: "The slaves thought that Concubine Jia only helped them because of Duke Zhen's face. Now if she is smart, she knows not to get caught up in it, offend the empress, and not win over Duke Zhen. This kind of stupid She won't do things, otherwise, she would have ceased to exist in this palace long ago."

Speaking of Concubine Jia, Empress Xiao's face darkened.

"Zhang Qingchen is just a commoner. Even if he entered the Zhen Guo Mansion and became the eldest wife, how would he have the guts to kill Fang Xing?" Empress Xiao didn't intend to touch the Zhen Guo Mansion, so she left Fu Lingtian aside. just fine.

But Luo Qingchen couldn't let it go, she still wanted to catch big fish from it.

Eunuch Deng thought about Empress Xiao's thoughts for a while and said: "She was afraid that she would not be worthy of Mr. Fu, so she tried her best to please Concubine Jia. Concubine Jia wanted to win over Duke Zhen, so whether it was intentional or not, Zhang Qingchen killed him. After Fang Xing, she begged Concubine Jia to protect her, and they hit it off right away."

Empress Xiao nodded to Eunuch Deng's words and said: "The crime of deceiving the emperor, there is no need to say what should be done. You hurry to find out the evidence of the crime, and I want to close the case as soon as possible."

The battle ahead could not be delayed any longer, and Empress Xiao also wanted to close the case as soon as possible.

Both Empress Xiao and Xu Hongwen thought they had laid out a clever plan, but they didn't expect that someone moved faster than them.

Eunuch Deng hasn't set up a good plan yet, but someone came to testify first.

It was a young eunuch from Huayang Palace, who claimed to have seen Jian Yu and Princess Changping when he passed by the rockery where Fang Xing died on the day of the banquet.

When Mei Hong mentioned Jian Yu before, Xu You'er covered it up by encountering her by chance.

But the little eunuch said that he saw Jian Yu and Xu Youer go into the rockery one after another, and then saw Fang Xing go in, and then saw Jian Yu and Xu Youer come out in a panic, especially Jian Yu was carrying a bag of something thing.

The little eunuch's confession disrupted the plans of a group of people.

Empress Xiao was displeased, the appearance of this little eunuch was too coincidental and strange, it was really suspicious.

"Since you saw such an important matter, why didn't you talk about it earlier and wait until now?" Eunuch Deng also said angrily. Didn't this completely break Empress Xiao's arrangement?

Luo Qingchen didn't know where this little eunuch came from, he obviously lied and was taught.

Because this matter is so secret, apart from Xu You'er Jian Yu, the ones who know it most are Luo Qingchen and his wife.

Could it be Fu Lingtian's arrangement?
Hearing from Fu Lingtian that something happened to the Duke of Zhen's mansion, after he hurried back, he never came to see Luo Qingchen again.

Luo Qingchen didn't know what happened to the Zhen Guogong's mansion, and she couldn't go to Fu Lingtian. Ling Lan asked someone to inquire, knowing that Fu Lingtian had been in the palace day and night after returning, but she didn't know why he didn't come to see Luo Qingchen.

Luo Qingchen knew that he must have his own reasons, but he couldn't help feeling a little worried in his heart, that kind of sweet and empty feeling, he could only taste it slowly in his heart.

At this moment, she somewhat understood Fu Lingtian's intentions.Although he was not by her side, his heart never left.

He arranged some kind of coup, but he couldn't let Empress Xiao see it, he would rather not tell her, not discuss with her, and not arouse others' suspicion.

He believes in her comprehension and adaptability, perhaps only in this way can she give Empress Xiao an unexpected "surprise".

The little eunuch said that he had been working in the remotest part of the Huayang Palace, and he didn't even see a few people, so he didn't know what was going on outside.

Occasionally today I heard people passing by and chatting, only to learn that something big happened that day. The little eunuch panicked and didn't know what to do, so he asked his father-in-law for advice.

The father-in-law didn't dare to hide it, so he immediately told Eunuch Deng such an important clue.

The Huayang Palace used to be the residence of a concubine left by the late emperor. The old concubine had passed away for several years, and there were still a few people left in the palace there to do some cleaning work on a daily basis.

Because there is no oil and water, and work is hard, they are all honest little eunuchs with no connections.

Eunuch Deng also inquired, this little eunuch named Xiaoguang is indeed from Huayang Temple, he worked there for a year, he is very honest, anyone can order him to do anything.

At the last banquet, because the Huayang Palace was relatively close to the stage, the eunuchs there were temporarily transferred to help, and Xiaoguang was called back and forth, so busy that he didn't touch the ground.

"The slave is not just being lazy, just the eunuch in charge wants the slave to wait there, he wants to go back to get some things, the slave dare not walk away, that's why I saw..." Xiao Guang's words were confirmed by the eunuch in charge.

Speaking of Jian Yu, it is easy to think of Mei Hong's private meeting with a man in the middle of the night in the Princess Palace.

The jury officials began to whisper, and Empress Xiao asked Xu You'er, who was already ashen-faced: "Princess Changping, how do you want to explain this matter?"

Xu You'er plopped down on her knees and said, "My queen, Chang Ping and Mr. Jian have played together since childhood, and we are brothers and sisters. It was just a chance meeting that day. He cared about Chang Ping and chatted for a while. It was because he was worried that he would be killed. People saw the misunderstanding, so they deliberately separated and returned to the banquet. How could our meeting be related to Mr. Fang's accidental death? These are two different things."

Empress Xiao saw Luo Qingchen's mocking smile on the side, and asked, "Mrs. Fu, why are you laughing?"

Luo Qingchen hesitated for a moment, seemed a little annoyed at being caught by Empress Xiao because she couldn't hold her breath, and said: "My queen, it's a crime to be an official."

Luo Qingchen pleaded guilty on his own initiative?
Both Xu Youer and Empress Xiao were surprised. The troublesome thing right now is Xu Youer, why does she want to take things on her?
"The case is not over yet, and the Palace has not convicted you, so why is Mrs. Fu guilty?" Empress Xiao said calmly.
