"It was a complete accident between the Fourth Prince and I."
Mrs. Wei gritted her teeth and looked at her, "Accident? What an accident! You hid it well!"
"My granddaughter is also trying to protect herself."
Wei Baozhu lowered his eyes, "When my eldest sister and His Highness the Fourth Prince were engaged, my uncle even tried to kill his own daughter in order to get out of this marriage. If he knew that I had been close to the Fourth Prince, he would definitely kill me. It’s my life, so I can only hide it.”
The reason was reasonable, but Mrs. Wei couldn't refute it.
"Then how did you get close to the Fourth Prince...?"
"The fourth prince's concubine that His Highness wanted has always been the eldest sister. My grandmother must have known his intentions. The marriage between the two was blocked by the uncle. The Fourth Highness was unwilling to accept it and made another plan to have sex with the eldest sister directly. It was cooked, but by mistake, I suffered an unreasonable disaster. Afterwards, the Fourth Highness said that he could take me as his concubine. I said that even if I were not married, I did not want to share the same husband with my eldest sister, so I refused. The Fourth Highness did not make things difficult for me. , as compensation, give me a token that can be used in times of crisis."
Mrs. Wei's pupils shrank when she heard this, and it was difficult to tell whether what she said was true or false.
The fourth prince's target is Wei Jin'er, but he has a physical relationship with Wei Baozhu. Marrying two daughters in the Wei family at the same time is too eye-catching. When two sisters share the same husband, it rarely becomes a happy story. Most of the time, it is the beginning of disaster.
The fourth prince just wanted to tie up the Wei family and did not want to cause a lot of trouble for himself.
Therefore, when Wei Baozhu said that he did not want to share the same husband with his sister, it was very possible that the fourth prince would not force it. After all, it was not him who suffered the loss. Wei Baozhu would not have a chance to rely on him in the future, so he would naturally agree.
Now that there is no hope for the fourth prince's marriage to Wei Jin'er, it is logical for him to fall back and choose Wei Baozhu.
"I had no choice but to seek his help last night, so he took the opportunity to bring me back to the palace. Today, as soon as the palace door opened, I entered the palace to ask for the imperial edict."
Wei Baozhu looked calm and told lies as if they were true.
This ability of hers comes from the Lin family's true inheritance.
No matter how detailed Madam Wei asked, she could still tell the truth clearly. Who makes it impossible to verify the matter?
"Grandma, my granddaughter knows the position of the Wei family. If the uncle still has a way to get out of this marriage, Bao Zhu is willing to cooperate, but Bao Zhu is not willing to become disabled or even lose his life."
Her words were clear and submissive, and it was not too much to ask to protect herself.
Mrs. Wei really had nothing to say for a while.
She waved her hand tiredly, "You go down first and I will discuss it with your uncle."
Wei Baozhu bent his knees slightly, turned around and exited Heyan Hall.
Seeing her grandmother's attitude confirmed her suspicion that Zhao Qi's death last night was not caused by her grandmother. It should be that Li Qingyi put on a show to quickly convince her. She didn't realize it until she arrived at the Fourth Prince's Mansion!
However, she was not angry. Even if she were asked to choose again, she would still make the same decision.
"Let's go back to Qinghua Pavilion first."
Fu'er and Yu'er followed Wei Baozhu, looked at each other, and both breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them followed Wei Baozhu unwillingly from the beginning.
Aunt Wen was not dead at that time, so she used Lin's name to send festive gifts to the Lin family. Lin Shiyao, the concubine of the Lin family, came to thank Lin for unknown reasons, but was ridiculed by Wei Baozhu, which led to a series of things that happened later.
From then on, the two girls knew what kind of temper their master was.
Just because he narrowly escaped and saved his life this time does not mean that he will be stable in the future.
Especially now that Wei Baozhu may not be able to successfully become the concubine, something may happen.
Even if she successfully marries into the fourth prince's palace, she will still have to deal with the concubine and other concubines in the future. There will really be no peace.
So the two girls have been looking for a way out.
After waiting for Wei Baozhu to go back to his room to rest, the two of them gathered together.
Yu'er hesitated: "Do you think Miss Li can trust us?"
It is taboo to betray the master. If you can betray you today, you can betray him tomorrow. Therefore, those who betray the master will generally not be reused.
Fu'er said: "We are not rebelling, we just want to be free."
Yu'er frowned, "What do you mean?"
"What is betrayal? To betray the master and to help others to harm the master is betrayal! We just want Miss Li to help us escape, but we haven't betrayed the girl. How can we call it a traitor?"
"But why does Miss Li help us? Don't you want us to do things for her?"
Fu'er snorted, "Then you go directly to the girl and ask for a sex contract and see if she can give it to you!"
Yu'er frowned, "I really envy Jiadan Hengwu and the others for having such a good master."
It's true that she is a slave, but others think her life is cheap, but she doesn't think so.
It’s not that she didn’t see Ling’er Long’er’s fate, it’s not that she didn’t see Dongling Ninglu’s fate. Even Zhao’s mother ended up like that. Did she rush forward even though she knew it was a dead end?
Fu'er sighed, "Let's see what Miss Li says..."
In front of the Wei Mansion.
Li Qingyi slowly got out of the carriage, his expression less calm than usual, and he seemed to be a little annoyed.
When the maids and wives in the house saw it, they all wondered if something had happened to the Li family.
After passing the second gate, Li Qingyi happened to see Wei Baozhu walking slowly in the corridor, and strode up with a cold face.
She glanced at the imperial edict in Wei Baozhu's arms and said with a smile, "I really want to congratulate Sister Baozhu on her happy marriage."
The servants around were a little surprised.
Miss Li always smiles when she sees others. Even if she has a problem with someone, she never shows it. Why did she see the second girl today with such an aura of a needle-point and a wheat awn? Could it be that he is still angry with the second lady because of the second lady's matter?
They didn't understand, but Wei Baozhu knew.
Li Qingyi came to help her lie.
She had obviously been detained to make her look good, but she was kidnapped halfway and became the fourth prince's concubine.
Li Qingyi is naturally angry, right?
Wei Baozhu also had a cold smile on his lips, "Thank you, Sister Li, for your kindness."
Li Qingyi's face suddenly turned cold, and he said in a slightly lowered voice, but still a few words could be heard: "The days are still long, Sister Baozhu should be careful, don't capsize in the gutter."
Wei Baozhu was not polite, "It's not certain who will capsize the boat!"
"snort."
Li Qingyi flicked his sleeves and walked towards Jinhua Courtyard.
With a dark face, Wei Baozhu gave a loud "hum" and walked away.
There were not many girls and women around who saw this scene, but their conversation was enough to reach the ears of the masters of each courtyard.
This time Li Qingyi went to Jinhuayuan to find Princess Yuanheng.
Wei Jin'er is also there. .c
When she saw Li Qingyi come in, she stood up involuntarily and called "sister" awkwardly.
"Jin'er."
Li Qingyi shouted very naturally. This "Jin'er" was much closer than "Sister Jin'er".
Wei Jin'er relaxed her hands and feet and sat back. Then she realized if they had something to talk about, so she stood up again, "I'm going back first."
Li Qingyi shook his head: "No, I have nothing to hide from you."
Wei Jin'er didn't move.
Princess Yuanheng kept smiling as she watched the two sisters interact without speaking.
Li Qingyi looked at her, "Mother, did Wei Shicheng ask about my marriage?"
