Mr. Xu¡¯s death has sequels. Although it was not intentional murder, Mr. Xu died because of little Luo Shi. Xu Zhongran's stepmother has always wanted to skin and eat little Luo Shi. Now that she has caught such a big deal, Mrs. Xu still doesn't want to kill little Luo Shi. Moreover, an equal wife is nothing more than a concubine to the main wife.
Mrs. Xu immediately did not allow Little Luo to wear sackcloth and wear mourning, and immediately locked Little Luo in the woodshed. She did not touch Little Luo's two sons and two daughters for the time being. But if the biological mother cannot even show mourning to the biological father, it is equivalent to not recognizing that she is a member of the Xu family. So what are they? So Xiao Luo's children started to make trouble.
Mrs. Xu finally showed her courage as the head of the house, severely reprimanded several of Xiao Luo's children, and scolded them for being disobedient and unfilial. They were also locked up.
When the second young master¡¯s fiancee¡¯s family heard about this, they immediately came over to cancel the engagement. Mrs. Xu returned the kiss without any ambiguity.
In the study room of Prince Hao's mansion, Prince Hao looked at Xu Zhongran, who was wearing plain clothes, with sharp eyes. How could Prince Hao not guess what Wen Wan knew.
Xu Zhongran knelt on the ground, and he did not quibble: "Father-in-law, I found that Aunt Tong. He wanted my younger brothers to get married to noble officials, and he even wanted to get married to the royal family. . I didn¡¯t want to be dragged to death by such a father, so I wanted to find a woman who could hold Luo Shi down so that I wouldn¡¯t have to work so hard. But I really didn¡¯t expect what happened next. . I really didn¡¯t expect Luo Shi to No matter how stupid I am, I can¡¯t do such a stupid thing. Even if it¡¯s not for myself, I have to think about my children. "Xu Zhongran really wanted to kill Mr. Xu. But as Xia Yao said, the consequences are too serious. Once the incident happens, his reputation will be ruined, and his descendants will be implicated. For Mr. Xu. The gain outweighs the loss. So he found Aunt Tong, and Xu Zhongran meant to let Aunt Tong slowly hollow out Mr. Xu's body and let him die naturally (if he died in a romantic manner, Xu Zhongran cannot be blamed).
Prince Hao¡¯s expression softened a lot when he heard Xu Zhongran¡¯s words. If Xu Zhongran did it. He was determined not to appoint Xu Zhongran again. Even his own father can do it. Who can guarantee that such a person will never attack you? But if you just send a woman, send a woman to share the favor with Luo. It's not a big deal.
But despite this, Prince Hao said nothing more and asked Xu Zhongran to go back. After others leave. Prince Hao looked at Xu Zhongran's back. There is something complicated in his eyes.
Prince Hao had a profound look in his eyes and said to his staff: "Think about it, who does Zhong Ran's experience resemble?" The experiences are similar, but the handling methods are completely different.
The staff was stunned at first. Then he understood: "The prince is talking about the princess? But in the world, who can compare with the princess? The Great Qi Dynasty only produced a genius like the princess in two hundred years." Personal temperament is different. The handling methods are naturally different. And Princess Wenwan is a monster.
Prince Hao looked at the picture of the flying goshawk hanging on the wall. He was silent for a long time and then said: "I have never understood why the late emperor was so fond of Wen Wan and even taught Wen Wan to handle government affairs. . Now, I seem to understand a little bit. "The gentleness back then did not turn out to be very smart, nor did it make any achievements. Even donating one's wealth is actually a forced and helpless act. On the contrary, under the manipulation of thoughtful people, Wen Wan still carries the reputation of treating wealth as life, being stingy and unfilial.
The staff quickly picked up the words that had no beginning and no end: "The late emperor must have seen that the princess was a pure and filial person, so he loved her very much."
Prince Hao often sighed: "Yes, pure filial piety and soft-heartedness. Although it is a weakness, it makes people feel reassured and heartache." At that time, Wen Wan's relationship with Ping Xiangxi and An was even worse than Xu Zhongran's. An wanted to kill Wen Wan several times, and Ping Xiangxi repeatedly acted as an accomplice. But Wen Wan did not deal with Ping Xiangxi, nor did she deal with An directly. It was only when he couldn't bear it anymore that he severed ties with Ping Xiangxi. He did not use any means to deal with Ping Xiangxi.
In fact, people have a very weird idea. For example, Xia Yao always thought that Ping Xiangxi should be killed because of all the things Ping Xiangxi did to Wen Wan. She thinks Ping Xiangxi deserves to die. But when it was Xu Zhongran's turn, he thought that he could even attack his biological father. No matter what the reason or excuse was, how ruthless would be the person who could attack his biological father.
Prince Hao has the same idea. No matter how bad or miserable he is, he is still his biological father. Who can attack his biological father can guarantee that given enough reasons and sufficient interests, he will not attack him, nor his children and grandchildren. In fact, if Xu Zhongran directly attacked Xiao Luo, Prince Hao would not hesitate at all. Just like Wen Wan, An died, and died tragically. Prince Hao knew that Wen Wan was behind it, and Prince Hao took it for granted. Because An is not a gentle mother, she is an enemy. She should never treat her enemies any moreNo fishy technique can be exaggerated. But for his biological parents, they are the ones who gave him blood. How could he do it?
Prince Hao said that he could understand why the emperor was so fond of Wen Wan back then, and that was because he felt this way now. That is, Wenwan has her own bottom line. For An, she could kill and torture her in every possible way. Wen Wan has always been patient with Ping Xiangxi, and she has not shied away from her filial piety even if she hates her responsibilities (at that time, it was okay for parents to beat their children to death). But if Wen Wan was like Xu Zhongran, who used tricks on Ping Xiangxi and finally killed Ping Xiangxi, the late emperor would never trust Wen Wan so much.
Prince Hao¡¯s idea is actually unfair to Xu Zhongran. Not to mention that Wen Wan did not treat Ping Xiang Xi as your biological father at all, even if he had been patient before so as not to disgust the emperor's grandpa (which Wen Wan grasped very well), let's just say that Wen Wan finally broke away from Ping Xiang Xi. . It was Wen Wan who had endured it for ten years and later built momentum and had the support of the emperor behind her to avoid being spit on. But can Xu Zhongran do it? Apart from anything else, the title of Marquis of Zhennan still belongs to the Xu family. Unless Master Xu dies, Xu Zhongran will never be able to get rid of Master Xu for the rest of his life. Xu Zhongran suffered a loss because the timing of this incident was wrong. The relationship between father and son had just eased when something happened to the biological father. For ordinary people, it may be considered accidental, but for those with thoughtful minds, it means something else.
To Wen Wan, this matter is just gossip. Xu Zhongran has nothing to do with him. It was another thing that caught Wen Wan's attention.
The thirteenth prince Qi Lin fell from the rockery and is still unconscious. As for whether he will recover or what will happen after he wakes up, no one from the imperial doctor can give a definite answer. The fourteenth prince and the eighteenth prince are temporarily normal. Ling Yuan is also normal (Ling Chang is a soy sauce artist, so it's even better).
Wen Wan put down the information in her hand: "In just a few days, something happened to the Thirteenth Prince. It was also the child's fate. Otherwise, he shouldn't have just broken his leg." If he were not careful, he would fall to death. Although the rockery in the palace is beautiful, it has twists and turns and is the most prone to accidents. A lot of things have happened in recent years.
Xia Yao felt that the heat was almost over: "Princess, it's time to express your stance." If this continues, something will happen to the 14th and 18th princes.
Wen Wan said disdainfully: "Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with me. It's not what I asked for. If you don't want to, just quit voluntarily." The palace is the darkest place. If something goes wrong, you can only blame yourself for not being able to protect your child. Who can blame you for being greedy and incompetent. Blame her, joke.
Xia Yao looked at Wen Wan and said nothing.
Wen Wan raised a smile: "In the palace, the last thing you need is sympathy, and the last thing you need is sympathy. You ask Xia Ying to find out who is behind this matter." She is not letting out the news now. You have to toss, the more you toss, the better.
The relevant people have all silenced, and it is really difficult to find out who is behind the scenes. At the same time, Wen Wan also received a letter from Xu Jingqiu. When Wen Wan saw the letter, she threw it on the ground: "Take it and burn it." She was not interested in knowing what was written in the letter.
Within two days, something happened to the eighteenth prince. I ate the wrong thing and got abdominal cramps. If the emperor hadn't kept people paying close attention to the two children and the imperial doctor had timely rescued them, they would have been scrapped that day. Even so, half of his life was lost.
Wen Wan sneered: "Eating the wrong thing? Are you afraid that what you ate is poison?" It's not poison, how can it make someone lose half his life? This meeting is really full of ghosts, ghosts, gods and snakes.
¡°Well, it makes Zhuang Shuyi, the mother-in-law of the fourteenth prince, worried every day and sad every night. The fourteenth prince could not stay away from her. Everything to eat has to pass through her hands. It's not because my confidant made it so I won't be allowed to eat it. They all became frightened.
After experiencing these two incidents, the emperor somewhat understood what Wen Wan was going to do. It seems that Wen Wan has made up her mind this time. Now that she has decided, let her make enough noise!
However, Crown Princess Ruyu could not figure out why Wen Wan did this. Wen Wan doesn't like to involve innocent people the most. Why is there still no sound this time after almost a month of asking about this matter? She really couldn't hold back Wen Wan's pulse.
Qi Mu also felt that Wen Wan's behavior this time was very different from her previous actions: "Wen Wan is so troubled, what exactly does she want to do?" According to theory, Wen Wan should select someone from that day on. But she didn't say a word, as if she had to let these people fight.
While Qi Mu was thinking, he heard someone say from outside: "Your Majesty, something happened again. His Highness Changsun's horse was startled and fell off the horse." However, Ling Yuan was lucky, and the people around him were all masters. The master was very powerful at the critical moment and caught the falling Ling Yuan. So Ling Yuan was just frightened, and there was no other hindrance.
Crown Princess Ruyu was so frightened when she heard something happened to Ling Yuan. heard yesAfter a false alarm, his whole body softened: "I didn't expect that he would attack Ling Yuan."
Of the four candidates, three had trouble. The fourteenth prince who was left safe and sound was particularly conspicuous. Zhuang Shuyi was so frightened that she quickly revealed to the emperor that the child was not talented enough to be taught by the noble princess. After knocking his forehead till it was covered with blood, the emperor nodded in agreement. Zhuang Shuyi went back with tears streaming down her face. On Lingyuan's side, the Crown Princess also refused on the grounds that the child was surprised and needed to rest. In other words, all the candidates are gone.
