"The mother only needs to take care of the inner house for her son. There is no need for the mother to ask questions about matters in the court, and she should not easily reach out to people outside."
Mrs. Wei obviously felt her son's displeasure, but how could she be happy?
Seeing her expression, Wei Shicheng knew that it wouldn't make sense for a while, so he stood up and left, "My son has something to do, and I'll see my mother later."
Mrs. Wei always listened to her son's words, but this time because of the pent-up anger in her heart, she said unwillingly: "My plan was foolproof, but the two girls failed to achieve it!"
Wei Shicheng's footsteps paused for a moment, and he turned around and said, "There is no airtight wall in the world. My mother thinks she has every plan, but she can't even deceive a yellow-haired girl like Li Qingyi. You are a distinguished old lady of the Wei family. If the matter gets out, let me know." People know that as a grandmother, she actually instigated her granddaughter to murder her deceased wife and recommend herself as a pillow. The reputation of our Wei family will be ruined in an instant. The censor's iron mouth can tear the Wei family to pieces. At that time, my mother can still Did you say what you said today?”
"Are you blaming me?"
Mrs. Wei staggered back two steps, not only because of her son's scary words, but also because the tone in which her son spoke to her was full of dissatisfaction and complaint.
Wei Shicheng didn't know why she was so stubborn today, and said, "You didn't even know that the second girl was hooking up with someone behind his back, and you asked her to crawl into Li Yong's bed. How could you say it was foolproof?"
The wind blew the window sash with a whirring sound.
Mrs. Wei's lips moved and her complexion turned livid.
She turned away from her son.
This is the first time that mother and son have had an impasse.
At this moment, Nong Shao's urgent voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Old lady! Sir! Someone is coming from the palace!"
The mother and son in the room frowned at the same time.
Mrs. Wei was confused: "Who is here? Did you tell me what happened?"
"This is a father-in-law, holding a bright yellow imperial edict in his hand..."
Mrs. Wei was stunned and looked at her son, "What is the emperor's decree for the Wei family?"
Wei Shicheng waved Nong Shao to retreat and asked, "Does mother know who the second girl is following?"
Mrs. Wei's throat felt itchy, "Who?"
"Fourth Prince."
"What?!""
Mrs. Wei stood up in panic, turned over the tea cup with her sleeves, and spilled it everywhere.
Wei Shicheng's expression was quite calm, and his eyes were full of coldness, "I sent someone to check last night, and when I found out it was the fourth prince, he had already entered the palace to ask for the order."
Based on Wei Jin'er's previous lesson, the fourth prince was bound to win this time, so Wei Shicheng chose to stand still in the future. Since he could not resist the order, he accepted the order openly.
Mrs. Wei couldn't accept it, "How could it be? Isn't the second girl at the Li family?"
"The Li family wanted to send Er Yatou away at night. It was unknown where they wanted to send them. The fourth prince knew the news and kidnapped Er Yatou halfway. He also claimed that he had saved Er Yatou from the gangsters, and in front of many people Then, I took him back to the Fourth Prince’s Mansion.”
Mrs. Wei took a breath of cold air.
Wei Baozhu was left with no choice but to find other ways to escape. Since she was secretly communicating with the Fourth Prince, there must be some way to contact the Fourth Prince to save her!
Her son was right, she really made a mistake this time!
Not only did the Li family take advantage of it, but the fourth prince also took advantage of it again!
"Now what?"
"Go and receive the order first."
After Wei Shicheng finished speaking, he took the lead to leave Heyan Hall.
Mrs. Wei was so angry that she couldn't let it out at the moment. She said, "Quickly change my clothes!"
Not long after Eunuch Xuan entered the Wei Mansion, the third lady Guo got the news.
It happened that she got up early today and immediately set out for the front yard, where she was the first to arrive.
The father-in-law who announced the decree was invited to the flower hall to drink tea. She ordered Lian Yu to go and inquire about it, while she stood outside waiting for Mrs. Wei and others to come over.
In the past, this opponent Lin
Now, she is full of energy every day. Since Lin's death, she has become listless without her opponents.
At this moment, he finally regained some energy, as if he had been given a shot of blood.
While she was looking anxiously, there was sudden movement behind her. She looked back and her eyes immediately widened: "Orb??? You...why are you back?"
Yesterday at Cuijin Tower, Li Qingyi humiliated Wei Baozhu in every possible way, and finally tried hard to detain her. How could he let her back so easily?
Wei Baozhu saw her ghostly expression and smiled lightly, "What, third aunt thinks I shouldn't come back?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Guo realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly laughed, "How could that be! It's just a bit of a surprise... a surprise!"
Haha, it must be a shock!
Wei Baozhu was sarcastic in his heart, but his tone was ordinary, "Yesterday, a thief came to the house and happened to ransack my yard. Not satisfied with robbing the money, he even kidnapped me. Fortunately, His Highness the Fourth Prince met me by chance and rescued me. Already."
Guo was stunned, but then realized that he must have prepared a statement to announce to the outside world.
But, why did it involve the fourth prince?
She asked suspiciously: "Your Highness, Fourth Prince, saved you?"
Wei Baozhu smiled and said, "I heard that Third Aunt also spent the whole night worrying with Grandma last night. It's really hard for Third Aunt, and Baozhu is very grateful."
Guo's face was a little stiff, "You, it would be great if you could come back."
Within a few words, Mrs. Wei and others had arrived.
When they saw Wei Baozhu, they had different expressions on their faces, especially Mrs. Wei, whose muscles on her face were spasming uncontrollably.
Wei Baozhu stepped forward to salute with a normal expression, and before he could say anything, Father-in-law Xuan walked out of the flower hall.
Everyone hurriedly greeted him politely, "Eunuch Cao."
Last time Wei Jin'er was engaged to the fourth prince, the one who came to announce the engagement was the emperor's father-in-law. This time, the father-in-law who came here was from Concubine Mu's palace.
Everyone felt the subtlety of this and looked at Wei Baozhu.
Wei Baozhu remained calm. She rushed back just to receive the order.
Eunuch Cao said a few polite words to the Wei family, and then announced in a loud voice: "Wei family treasures receive the order."
The incense table has been set up, and everyone in the house knelt down one by one. Eunuch Cao slowly unfolded the bright yellow silk and read in a loud voice:
"Imperative: The daughter of the Wei family, Baozhu, is dignified, Shurui, and gentle. She is destined to marry the fourth prince, Yan, and be named a side concubine. She hopes that she will cultivate her moral character and self-restraint in the future, be careful about her speech and appearance, and abide by the rules of the female admonition. , choose a day to get married, admire this."
The fourth prince’s concubine!
These words hung heavily on the hearts of the Wei family, and everyone looked at Wei Baozhu.
Wei Baozhu did not squint his eyes and respectfully accepted the order to express his gratitude without any hesitation. .
Eunuch Cao glanced around, taking in the faces of everyone, and said with a smile: "In that case, our family will return to the palace first."
Wei Shicheng said a few polite words and asked the housekeeper to send Eunuch Cao away.
Wei Baozhu stood up holding the imperial edict and heard Mrs. Wei's voice, "Follow me."
