On the day of the emperor's birthday banquet, Xia Zhilu was given a three-foot white silk ribbon and was sent to hell by her biological parents that night.
Xia Luotong didn't know how Xia Zhilu would feel if she knew the truth about this matter. sad? Not willing? resentment?
But these have nothing to do with Xia Luotong. She will neither sympathize nor feel guilty, because Xia Zhilu was destined to have such an ending as early as when Xia Zhilu and Jiang Xin teamed up to pay for her murder.
What's more, in the end, Xia Zhilu's life was ended by Xia Zhihe and Li personally. If they had not pushed Xia Zhilu out to take the blame alone, Xia Zhilu might not have gone to hell so quickly.
Xia Zhihe and Li's love for their so-called legitimate daughter was nothing more than this.
After Xia Zhilu died, she was not even allowed to enter the family cemetery. Xia Zhihe sent her directly to a mass grave outside the city in the name of a guilty woman. If she wasn't afraid of gossip, she might not have even been given a coffin. In the end, she simply The matter was buried.
When Xia Zhihe made this decision, Li did not object, but after Xia Zhilu sent her away, Li always used this matter to blackmail Xia Zhihe.
After all, Xia Zhilu blocked the disaster for them, and that's why she lost her life. In the past two days, Mrs. Li often talked about this matter, which was really ridiculous and chilling.
Nowadays, Xia Zhihe is already fed up with Mrs. Li. If he didn't take care of the Li family behind Li Shi, he wouldn't even want to maintain the superficial skills. Li Shi's making such a fuss only makes Xia Zhihe hate her more and more.
Xia Zhihe hasn't stepped into Li's house for a long time, and Sun Jiaolan rarely stays over there, because Sun Jiaolan is pregnant and cannot serve him.
However, Sun Jiaolan gave Xia Zhihe a two-room concubine. Xia Zhihe spent most of his time resting there, and he was much happier than before.
Xia Zhihe's neglect made Li angry, but what made her most jealous and mad was the royal hunting a few days ago. Xia Zhihe did not take her, but took Sun Jiaolan!
Mrs. Li only felt extremely humiliated. She, a married woman, could not attend such an important event, but a pregnant wife went instead!
All these things were accumulated one after another, and Mrs. Li now spent every day in a rage, and there was almost no day in peace in the Xia Mansion.
How can the current Li family still look as graceful and luxurious as before? His face was sallow, his appearance was haggard and old, and he even had many more wrinkles and gray hair. Standing next to Xia Zhihe, he actually looked like Xia Zhihe's elder!
Listening to Wu Manying vividly describing Li's situation during this period, Xia Luotong felt much better. No matter what, as long as Li lived in suffering, she felt comfortable.
Xia Luotong thought for a while and then ordered: "Let Uncle Wu and Lin Sheng start taking action. I don't want Mr. Li to live so freely in terms of money. I heard that boy Xia Hongzhang spends his days drinking and drinking. Extremely happy.”
Xia Zhilu's death really had no impact on the Xia family at all. Even the twin brother Xia Hongzhang was the same. The next day, he invited a group of friends to have a good time.
Wu Manying agreed immediately and left with an excited look on her face.
Wu Zechen glanced at Xia Luotong and didn't say much. He knew that what Prince Yi Nuo said had an impact on Xia Luotong's mood. She thought about what happened to the Sun family and the crimes committed by Li and others. crimes.
He knew that Xia Luotong had not planned to take action so soon, but now he stepped up his steps, obviously not wanting to delay it any longer.
As the days passed, the capital became more and more lively. There were reasons for hunting down assassins, and at the same time, there were reasons for preparing for the wedding.
This marriage is about the Nanman princess marrying Dazhou and marrying the emperor as his concubine.
Once the imperial edict was issued, there was no room for change. No matter how much Princess Niya made trouble, it would be useless. It would only make the emperor hate her even more.
Even the Nanman Khan nodded his head on this matter. Naturally, Princess Niya could not go back on her words. The Nanman Khan obviously knew his daughter's temperament and sent a personal letter when he agreed.
In the letter, Nanman Khan gave Princess Niya a stern warning, but apparently it had little effect, because Princess Niya is still locked in the house.
And when the imperial edict came down, the prince also knew what a stupid thing he had done. How dare he snatch a concubine from his father? It’s really too long to live!
But the prince felt that he was really wronged. The day before, he was still thinking about how to put Princess Nanman into Prince An's mansion. Who knew that he would change his mind the next day?
But after all, he made the emperor unhappy, and he has become much more honest these days. He doesn't look for trouble anymore and has given up on Princess Niya.
Just when things were calm in each family's house, a lot of things happened to the Xia family, or rather the Li family, again.
Things happened to her trousseau shops one after another, as if troubles were coming all at once, making her spend every day in a state of irritability.
Either there is something wrong with the goods in this shop, or someone in the restaurant over there has something wrong with his food. Even Zhuangzi has not escaped this disaster. If it is not handled well, it will really cause big trouble.
While Mrs. Li was in dire straits, Sun Jiaolan didn't make it easy for her either.
Sun Jiaolan obviously discovered that something was wrong with Li's dowry, so she seized the opportunity and frequently caused trouble for Li in the mansion. She also secretly interfered, making Li's dowry shop even more chaotic.
Sun Jiaolan's actions did not escape Xia Luotong's eyes, but Xia Luotong was so happy that she secretly thought that she was right to help Sun Jiaolan enter the Xia Mansion!
Just when Xia Luotong was enjoying watching the excitement of Xia Mansion, there was another progress in tracing his life experience.
At that time, the old housekeeper of the Sun family had a son who helped Mr. Sun take care of the caravan all year round, so he rarely stayed in the Sun mansion. He spent most of the year running away. When something happened to the Sun family, he happened to be there. On his business trip, he was not at Sun's house.
When Xia Luotong learned about this, he frowned and said in confusion: "Didn't I say before that the housekeeper's son encountered robbers on his business trip? The entire caravan was killed and all the goods were plundered?"
It was because she learned this news that she felt increasingly uncertain about finding the truth about her life experience.
Wu Zechen frowned and said, "I'm afraid that's not the truth. A few days ago, I couldn't find any clues in any direction, so with the idea of giving it a try, I asked someone to check the place where the accident happened, and also explored the surrounding area. News, it really paid off in the end.”
"The caravan encountering robbers is probably a lie."
"Fake?! How could it be?" Xia Luotong said in surprise.
"Yes, judging from various signs, the encounter with the robbers is probably a fake, and it is very likely that the butler's son himself forged it!"
Wu Zechen actually had some speculations in his mind, because he had secretly left the capital and visited the place to check it out personally.
