Reborn Evil Mother-in-law - Chapter 141

    After the search of the palace, Shen Xinyan was even more sure that something must have happened in the palace. Since He Peng dared to come under the banner of ‘acting according to the order’, it can be seen that this ‘will’ is true. But she was not sure whether the will really came from the person who ordered it.

    Above the court, the prince gradually weakened. Although he was still in the name of supervising the country, his control over the court was not as strong as before. On the contrary, the number of supporters of the second prince and the third prince is increasing, especially the second prince, whose momentum is close to the prince, and there are Queen Zhou and Concubine Shu behind them.

    ‘s full support is like taking the prince’s place.

    Emperor Yuanyou’s condition is still repeated, it is said that he is often dizzy, and Shen Xinyan only heard from Wei Chengzhao, and he can’t tell the truth from the fake.

    Since Wei Chengzhao and Yang’s maiden niece made a marriage appointment, Wei Junhang took the lead and found an errand for him at the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses. According to Wei Junhang’s meaning, he intends to train him, so as to add a powerful helper to Wei Chenglin in the future.

    For Wei Chengyue and Wei Chengqi, Wei Junhang also had an arrangement in his mind, but before he could act, Wei Chenglin disappeared, and then Rong Di went south.

    Wei Chengzhao also knew that it was an extraordinary period, so he went back to the house on time every day after the yamen, never stayed too much outside, and occasionally told Shen Xinyan all the news he heard in the yamen. It was also at this time that Shen Xinyan realized that Yang’s son was actually no less smart than her eldest son Wei Chenglin, and even more low-key and sleek than Wei Chenglin.

    Wei Chengqi, who was the eldest in his previous life, was almost the same as leaving the house for the Fang family, and his life in the future was quite hard. However, after the third room moved out of the Guogong’s mansion, Wei Chengzhao and his cousin, Wei Chengyue, quickly found an errand. The two brothers worked together, and the life was very good. Yang also straightened his back and put those who had never given birth. The concubine’s concubine was sold, and the remaining ones, with their children to seek a living in front of her, naturally did not dare to make waves.

      Seeing that Luo Bo has lost his support, in fact, he may not really suffer for the rest of his life, such as the Yang family in his previous life.

    The Duke’s Mansion closed the door to thank guests, Shen Xinyan restrained the servants in the mansion, and took care of the eldest princess and the pregnant Wei Yingzhi wholeheartedly. Yang’s will occasionally come to help. As for Fang’s, she is still “recuperating from illness”, but Shen Xinyan will no longer secretly send people to watch her every move.

    Everyone has weaknesses, and Wei Chengqi is Fang’s biggest weakness. She can not care about anyone or anything, but she can’t ignore her son.

    On this day, Shen Xinyan and Wei Yingzhi were talking in the room of the eldest princess. The eldest princess was in a bit of a bad mood, but when she saw that her granddaughter had begun to show her pregnant belly, her spirit suddenly changed. It was a lot better, and she asked her about her pregnancy with concern.

    Wei Yingzhi put her arms around her waist and acted like a spoiled child in her arms like a child, which made her laugh endlessly.

    After a while, Brother Xiang ran in ‘bang bang bang’, climbed onto the soft couch with agile movements, pulled away his sister’s hand holding his grandmother, and shrunk his small body Into grandmother’s arms, then smiled contentedly.

    His small appearance of protecting food made everyone laugh.

    In the laughter, Ziyan whispered in Shen Xinyan’s ear, Shen Xinyan nodded and looked at the three grandparents who were happy, without disturbing them, quietly went out.

    “Second aunt!” Wei Chengzhao, who had been waiting down the corridor, saw her come out and hurriedly greeted her.

    “What’s the matter?” Seeing his anxious face, Shen Xinyan’s heart tightened.

    “Something happened to His Royal Highness. Early this morning, Sun Shoufu and several important court officials entered the palace to discuss matters, and found that the second prince was covered in blood in Bixiu Palace. After the adults entered, His Royal Highness Holding a blood-stained dagger.” Wei Chengzhao told the news in one breath.

    Shen Xinyan’s complexion suddenly changed greatly.

    “The Second Highness is dead?”

    “The imperial physicians are doing their best to heal, but now they are just breathing a sigh of relief. The situation is very dangerous, and it is still unknown whether they can be saved. The suspicion cannot be cleared, His Royal Highness is in danger!”

    “What did your majesty say there?” Shen Xinyan asked.

    “Your Majesty was in a coma all morning, and finally woke up. After hearing about it, he asked the Imperial Hospital to fully treat the second prince. I don’t know.”

    “But…King Ruyang has requested an order to imprison His Royal Highness in the Zongren’s mansion.” Wei Chengzhao hesitated for a while, but told the truth.

    King Ruyang is the most senior in the royal family today, even if the eldest princess sees him, she has to call him uncle.

    The prince was imprisoned in the ancestral mansion. If he could not be cleared of suspicion, not only would the position of the prince not be guaranteed, but he would also be involved. However, can Emperor Yuanyou still believe it today? An emperor who would order a search of the government’s mansion, was he still the emperor who valued Concubine Rui and the Crown Prince the most?

    Shen Xinyan did not dare to hold out much hope.

    She shuddered.

    “Second aunt, do you think the third prince did this? Think about it, if the second prince died of serious injuries and His Highness the Crown Prince could not clear his name, then His Majesty would have only one Is it the third prince? Who else does this prince belong to?” Wei Chengzhao said in a low voice.

    Shen Xinyan’s face was solemn: “What you said is not unreasonable, but brother Zhao, the truth has not been found out for a day, and no one can be sure who did it. Let’s think about this first. We can get in touch with the imperial concubine in the palace and see if we can be of help.”

    Wei Chengzhao thought about it for the same reason, and nodded in response: “The second aunt said that it was the nephew who did not think carefully.”

    After a pause, he asked again: “The second aunt, Qiao Liushu has always been close to the second uncle, should we ask him about it?”

    Shen Xinyan shook her head: “It is precisely because he is close to your second uncle that we cannot inquire about him. Your Majesty may not allow him to thoroughly investigate the injury of the second prince, if we are with him in private Contact, for him, is not necessarily a good thing.”

    Wei Chengzhao understood after listening to her.

    “If you want to get in touch with the noble concubine in the palace, it seems that you have to ask the fourth sister.” Wei Chengzhao said.

    Wei Yingzhi can also be thought of by Shen Xinyan. After all, Wei Yingzhi is Concubine Rui Gui’s niece and she is pregnant. Although Concubine Rui Gui has not called her into the palace these days, she will send someone out of the palace every three or five times. When she sends something, she will naturally put someone next to Wei Yingzhi, so that she can keep abreast of her niece’s pregnancy.

    As she guessed, Emperor Yuanyou really asked Qiao Liuhui and Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the serious injury of the second prince, and Shen Xinyan also got the news that Concubine Rui in the palace told her to wait.

    She let out a sigh of relief, Concubine Rui Gui said that, it was not entirely unsure.

    Because it was the second prince who was stabbed, the prince became a suspect, and the courtiers were all in danger. , the third prince and the prince became a pair of brothers and sisters.

     When he asked the emperor to make a decision, he found that he had actually fallen asleep on the throne.

    For a time, the people in the hall were dissipated.

    The emperor was ill, the three princes went to one, and the other two were locked in the clan mansion. of the greatest crisis.

    In the harem, Concubine Shu, the biological mother of the second prince, washed her face in tears day and night because of the uncertainty of her son’s life and death. .

    The courtiers breathed a sigh of relief when the good news of the victory at the border was sent to the defense case expeditedly.

    At this time when disasters are happening one after another, they urgently need a good news to dispel the anxiety and anxiety in their hearts.

    Then, Wei Chenglin, who was originally rumored to have died in the bandit rebellion, suddenly led his troops to attack Qingfeng Mountain, the stronghold of the bandit leader, captured the eldest master of the village alive, and beheaded the second and third masters. . Then, he joined with the reinforcements of Marquis Zhongyi, and Chengsheng pursued it. In less than a month, he completely quelled the bandit chaos in Xiyan that had plagued the court for many years.

    The news came back to the Duke’s Mansion, the eldest princess wept with joy, and clung to Shen Xinyan’s hand tightly, saying, “I knew, I knew Brother Lin would be fine. His grandfather will be fine. It took so much effort to cultivate him, how could he die because of a little bandit chaos.”

    “Yes, what my mother said is that Brother Lin is fine…” Shen Xinyan’s throat was a little blocked, her eyes were also glowing with water, and she answered in a choked voice.

    Her heart has been tormenting these days, but everyone in the big mansion is looking at her, but she can’t show half of it.

    “I knew I would go with Yunfu too…” Wei Chengyue on the side was happy for his cousin, but his tone was a little disappointed.

    Even Yunfu, the noble prince, was on the battlefield. At the beginning, his martial arts were not as good as his own! If he followed along, he would definitely be able to catch all the bandits together with his elder brother.

    Even Wei Chengzhao also had a bit of annoyance and yearning in his eyes.

    Wei Chengqi’s martial arts skills are mediocre, and he is more fond of writing than martial arts, so apart from being happy for his cousin and sister-in-law, he has no other feelings.

    Everyone in the palace was overjoyed because of this rare good news. In the palace, Emperor Yuanyou, who was supposed to be asleep, rubbed his forehead, took the black pill handed over by Qiao Liu, swallowed it, and poured a few sips of water, then sighed: “But finally there is good news back, Jun Hang. Procrastinate any more, and I’m afraid I’ll be out of action.”

    Qiao Liu smiled and said, “Your Majesty has really impressed me this time, and sighed at himself!”

    Emperor Yuanyou glared at him, then thought about everything that had happened in the recent days, his face was ashen with hatred, he barely suppressed his anger and asked, “Can the second prince be saved?”

    “I don’t worry about my life, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to live without the medicine jar in the future.”

    Emperor Yuanyou sneered: “This is also what he asked for! If he doesn’t have thoughts that he shouldn’t have, why would he be used by others, and even lose his life!”

    “You can’t blame him at all. People are aiming at his son-in-law. After all, the prince is gone, and a grandson who is still in swaddling clothes is more important to them. It’s beneficial.” Qiao Liu spread his hands.

    The prince has been married for many years, and he has only two daughters.

    Such a single seedling, and a milk doll, is indeed the easiest to control, but it is much more useful than supporting an adult prince.

    “Jun Hang said that Prince Cheng has sneaked back to the capital. You have checked these days, do you have any clues?” Emperor Yuanyou took a few deep breaths and asked again.

    “Not yet.” Qiao Liu was a little ashamed.

    Although Emperor Yuanyou was impatient, he knew that this matter would not be urgent, so he did not blame him.

    When Qiao Liu left, she saw Queen Zhou slowly coming with her maid. He didn’t want to see the ceremony, so he quickly flashed to the rockery before they found it, thinking about leaving after they passed by.

    The sound of the ring and the pendant colliding when the woman was walking gradually drifted away, and he came out from behind the rockery, inadvertently looked at the backs of the few people, his eyes gradually fell On the bowed **** beside Queen Zhou.

    I don’t know if it’s his illusion, he always thinks that this person is a little strange, but he can’t think of what is wrong for a while. After thinking for a moment, he decided to find an opportunity to explore again.

    Whether it is an illusion or not, since there is doubt, you must find a way to verify it.

    This **** really dares to gang up with a traitor to poison himself, intending to control himself. Originally, he was still thinking of his former friendship, so he would give her a good death, but now…

    A murderous intent flashed across his face.

    The humiliation suffered in these days will teach the **** to pay ten times the price!

    The courtiers were watching the progress of the second prince’s case and the border war, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that the Rong and Di people were finally driven out of the customs, and the lost ground was taken back.

    Immediately, there was a voice in the courtroom that should be closed. Some courtiers thought that since the foreign enemy had been driven away, they should withdraw their troops and wait for peace to be negotiated, so that the people would not suffer the pain of war again.

    The main peace faction and the main war faction do not give in each other, and their faces are flushed, and they all wish to ask your majesty to accept their own opinions.

    In the battle between courtiers, Shen Xinyan, a woman inside the house, naturally had limited knowledge, but only learned a thing or two from Wei Chengzhao’s fragmentary words every day.

    Compared with these, what she cares more about is when will Wei Junhang and Wei Chenglin return?

    She remembered that in her previous life, General Murong led the army to attack the Rongdi imperial court, and the Rongdi people were no longer able to fight back.

    It was also in that battle that Wei Chenglin’s military talents were thoroughly demonstrated, and he joined forces with General Murong to once again reproduce the glory of Wei’s and Murong’s joint battles, invincible.

    From then on, no one in the court and the public dared to underestimate this young British prince.

    But in this life, Wei Chenglin went to Xiyan to quell the bandit rebellion in Xiyan, so Shen Xinyan is really not sure whether he will participate in the war against Rong Di again.

    After a few days, Emperor Yuanyou issued a decree, and General Murong led his troops to attack Rong and Di, and completely solve this serious problem for the frontier people and the court.

    In the struggle between the main peace faction and the main war faction, the main war faction won the final victory.

    Shen Xinyan was not surprised by this, after all, this was the choice of the imperial court in her previous life.

    What surprised her was that Emperor Yuanyou also issued a decree, that Wei Chenglin, who had just quelled the bandit rebellion in Xiyan, and the Hou Zhongyi led troops to support General Murong, and the two armies were unified. , There is a great trend of not returning to the imperial court of Rong and Di.

    Shen Xinyan sighed deeply.

    Sure enough, there are some things that can’t be changed in this life or in the past.

    The only change is that in this life, not only her son, but also her husband and son-in-law participated.

    Since the eldest princess learned that her son and eldest grandson are all safe, her condition has improved in an instant, although sometimes she is confused, holding Shen Xinyan’s hand and chatting with her husband and Wei Junting Wei Junhang brothers, but in most cases, they are still quite sober.

    After the word spread that the imperial court wanted to pursue Rong Di with all her strength, the eldest princess was uneasy and worried, and despite Shen Xinyan’s dissuasion, she resolutely went to the temple to pray for Wei Junhang’s father, son, and son-in-law.

    Shen Xinyan couldn’t persuade her for a long time, so she could only follow her wishes. Taking advantage of the fine weather, she personally accompanied her to Lingyun Temple in the suburbs of Beijing.

    Wei Yingzhi, who originally learned that they were going to pray, also came with her, but she was reprimanded by Shen Xinyan, and she was getting heavier, so she had to give up.

    Shen Xinyan let out a sigh of relief.

    She can’t help her mother-in-law, can she still help her daughter?

    The carriage went all the way to the suburbs of Beijing, Shen Xinyan greeted the temple one day in advance and arranged everything properly, also for fear that too many people in the temple would bump into the eldest princess.

    After all, the body of the eldest princess is no longer as good as before, and she cannot be ignored at all.

    When she arrived at Lingyun Temple, she accompanied the eldest princess to pray for blessings, and accompanied her to listen to Master Huiming’s lectures.

    After dying and being reborn again, she has a lot of reverence for ghosts and gods, and now she hopes that gods can protect her relatives and return safely.

    When leaving from Lingyun Temple, the sunset glowed all over the mountains and brought a beautiful red scenery.

    Shen Xinyan helped the eldest princess onto the carriage and instructed the servants to drive carefully. The carriage drove smoothly on the road, heading towards the city.

    “No good, no good, there are rebels, run!”

    Suddenly, a cry from nowhere, startling the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the carriage.

    “What happened?” Shen Xinyan asked hurriedly.

    “Where is the traitor at the feet of the emperor, ridiculous!” The eldest princess shouted.

    “Anyway, mother, let’s hurry back to the manor. Don’t be afraid of 10,000, just in case. Now is a very time, and we have to guard against it.” Shen Xinyan advised.

    The eldest princess’s face softened a little: “I listen to you!”

    Shen Xinyan then instructed the driver to speed up and return home sooner or later.

    For some reason, the word rebel always made her feel uneasy.

     Didn’t Murong Tao pretend to be a rebel in his last life? Could it be that he is still repeating his old tricks in this life?

    I don’t think so, at this time Murong Tao should follow his father on the battlefield.

    And the third prince is still locked in the ancestral mansion, as the third prince and concubine Zhou Wanning does not have the time to go out.

    Thinking about this made her heart calm again.

    Suddenly, the carriage made an emergency stop, and after a few such emergencies, Shen Xinyan was very clever and steadied, and even the eldest princess was supported by her.

    “Help, help my wife!” The woman’s panicked cry suddenly came in from outside, and the servant who was driving also swallowed the scolding that was about to be exported.

    Shen Xinyan was startled, but felt that the woman’s voice seemed to be somewhat familiar. She lifted the curtain of the car and saw a wolf beside the carriage, pulling the driver of the car and crying.

    The woman immediately rushed over when she saw her appear.

     “Madam, please save my wife!”

    Shen Xinyan froze instantly.

    This person is none other than Zhou Wanning’s maid Liu Shuang!

    “But something happened to the third prince?!” She asked sharply.

    Liu Shuang nodded repeatedly with tears in her eyes: “Madam, please, please beg the princess, she was kidnapped by the rebels who suddenly rushed out!”

    Speaking of this, she couldn’t help crying, crying in despair.

    If something happens to the third princess, she will not live!

    “What? The third prince and concubine were kidnapped by thieves?”

    In broad daylight, this thief is too rampant!

      “

    “You hurry back to the city, find Lord Zhou Maozhou, and tell him the matter in detail.”

    “Get in the car quickly, let’s go back to the city immediately!”

    Shen Xinyan ordered calmly.

    “Why don’t you let your guards chase?” Liu Shuang wiped away a tear, a little dissatisfied.

    Shen Xinyan sneered: “You princes and concubines are very valuable, is it possible that the lives of the female family members of our government are worthless?”

    Don’t blame her for being selfish, in her eyes, ten Zhou Wannings are not as good as one eldest princess!
