Tao Yanyan cried all day because of this incident. Aunt Zhao thought of many ways to make her happy, but she didn't expect that Tao Yaoyao would bring up her sadness again so soon.
So she was so angry that she jumped three feet high. After jumping, she hurt the wound, and the pain made her grin and yell, "Tao Yaoyao, don't bully others too much. How the third prince died is not clear to others, but I still Not sure?
Tao Yaoyao, you turned me into what I am now, what qualifications do you have to stand here and laugh at me. "
"It's really interesting. The third prince commits suicide. What does it have to do with me? Just because I know the truth and tell the truth, I am guilty of a heinous crime?"
Tao Yaoyao sneered and said, "According to your wishes, you occupied my yard today. Is it my fault that I hit you?"
"You..." Tao Yanyan couldn't resist her. Seeing that she was about to take action again, he dragged his servant and ran out of Tao Ranju. Tao Yaoyao didn't like others touching her things, so after entering the door, she asked the housekeeper to find some servants and throw all Tao Yanyan's things out.
Tao Yanyan realized that when he asked someone to move it, everything was thrown on the ground.
The maid didn't dare to tell her, so she just urged the servants to take the things back quickly.
At this time, Tao Yanyan dragged herself to Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao was embroidering a handkerchief. When she saw her coming, she thought she had something to do with her. She greeted her with a smile, but she saw him grinning. Get dressed.
"What's going on? What's wrong with you?"
Tao Yanyan was still holding back, but when he heard Aunt Zhao's words, he burst into tears, "Mom, Tao Yaoyao bullied others too much, she actually beat me. Look at how she beat me, if there are any scars , Do I want to get married?
Mother, I don’t care, if you want to avenge me, I will make Tao Yaoyao’s life worse than death. "
Dali Temple Dalao
Xiao Shuo followed Xie Lan and walked towards the place where Master Liu was imprisoned. As soon as he got close, he heard Mrs. Liu's heart-rending roar, "Master, it's already this time, can you please stop pretending to be stupid?
Do you dare to swear to God? Do you really have no regrets about marrying me? "
Master Liu didn't understand why her wife had such thoughts, so she sighed, "If I really regretted it, I would have divorced you long ago, but haven't I done this in these years?"
"That's because you don't dare." Mrs. Liu sneered, "It's because you don't have the ability, so after much thought, you just want to leave a good reputation. Don't say that you are wronged, but you are very good to me.
If you were really good to me, you wouldn't have stayed away from my house for so many years. If you were really good to me, you wouldn't care about Xin'er's marriage.
Master, you said that the Zhou family is hypocritical. Let me tell you, you are the most hypocritical person in the world.
The Zhou family at least dares to take responsibility. As for you, you are complaining but you don't know anything. Now that I have made a decision for you, you are still not happy. Why are you so embarrassed? "
The more Mrs. Liu spoke, the more unpleasant she sounded. When the two of them were about to quarrel, Xiao Shuo and Xie Lan came over.
After Master Liu saw them, he quickly shut up, and then stood up awkwardly, "Your Majesty, Master Xiao, why are you here? But is there anything else that needs to be added about the case?"
"No." Xiao Shuo glanced at Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu thought of something and her expression changed slightly, "But there are clues to that matter."
Mrs. Liu felt curious and a little uneasy. At this time, Xiao Shuo nodded and said, "You said before that you picked up Liu Ruhua in the back mountain of your hometown?"
Master Liu nodded, and Mrs. Liu's face changed greatly, "Why are you asking this? Everyone is dead, why are you bringing up these things about sesame seeds and rotten millet?"
"Madam, please don't be presumptuous." Master Liu frowned. What's wrong with Madam? She used to know the rules best, but today she dares to refute what the prince and Master Xiao said. Does she know her current situation?
Xiao Shuo stretched out his hand to stop her, "Master Liu, don't be anxious. Mrs. Liu reacted so strongly. She must have something to say."
"Madam, I have nothing to say. On the other hand, if you have nothing to do, just go home and rest, and don't do useless things all day long."
After Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she turned around and sat on the straw.
Xiao Shuo laughed angrily at him. This was the first time he saw someone so confident when they had a guilty conscience.
"Mrs. Liu is so anxious, but she is worried that we will find out Liu Ruhua's life experience." After Xiao Shuo finished speaking, he saw Mrs. Liu glare at him, so he continued, "But there is nothing that Dali Temple wants to know that cannot be found out.
Master Liu, Liu Ruhua is actually not an orphan, her parents are still alive. "
"Why did you throw her away when she was still alive?" Mr. Liu was puzzled. Mrs. Liu's expression had completely changed.
"Because Liu Ruhua is an illegitimate daughter, and her parents have their own families. Her birth was a mistake. Speaking of which, Mr. Liu is still a kind man. He gave him a family. Otherwise, she would have been abandoned by the queen. The beasts of the mountain have eaten me. How can I still live well until now?
It's a pity that some people are greedy and even though they have already raised their daughters, they still speak out against the other party with confidence. "
"Mr. Xiao is so interested in our family's affairs?" Mrs. Liu shot back.
After Master Liu understood the meaning of this sentence, he subconsciously looked at Mrs. Liu, and then his face changed again and again. After a while, Master Liu asked tremblingly, "Madam, what happened to Liu Ruhua's mother?" who is it?"
"How do I know?" Mrs. Liu turned around impatiently, "Didn't you investigate back then? You didn't find anything back then, but you still believe what they say despite what you can find now."
Madam Liu kept reminding Mr. Liu that what Xiao Shuo said was not true.
But she didn't know that Mr. Liu knew Xiao Shuo's abilities, and there was something he had never said. He had been keeping it in his heart for so many years. He thought he was good enough to her, but he didn't expect that she would hide such a big thing from her.
But just now, she actually kept saying that she was sorry.
Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous.
"You dare not say it? Then let me tell you. Twenty years ago, when I went to Beijing to take the exam, I saw you and my second brother..."
Mrs. Liu trembled, then turned back sharply. She stared at Mr. Liu's face again and again. She didn't know how much time had passed before she slowly spoke, "What did you just say?"
"I said, I have known about you and your second brother for a long time, but I didn't expect that you even had children at that time."
"I always thought that you couldn't stand the loneliness after I left, so you did something wrong. Counting the time, you actually fell in love with your second brother before I left.
Do you know how angry I was at that time? But my mother said, I am an official and I cannot allow such a scandal to spread, so I took you back to Kyoto City.
You're right, my feelings for you have indeed faded away, but it's not because I thought about it, but because you forced me to.
As for what you said, have I ever regretted it over the years? I didn't lie. I have never regretted it. Maybe I had this thought when I first came to Kyoto City, but after my parents and sisters happened, you are the only one I have in this world. It’s my last relative, and I can’t bear to bear the things we have experienced.
So I thought, as time goes by, we will all forget about that incident, and maybe we can start over.
But I didn't expect that you thought of me so much, let alone that there was a child between you. In fact, if you told me the truth, I might not let Ruhua do that thing.
Now, I feel sorry for you. "
Master Liu sighed and squatted down.
Mrs. Liu lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. Tears were falling down. It seemed that she was not in a good mood.
Xie Lan and Xiao Shuo looked at each other, turned around and left the prison.
"My lord, where is the second prince..."
"Sir, it's bad, everyone on the street is talking about the third prince colluding with the Ministry of War and manipulating the weapons, causing tens of thousands of soldiers at the border to die tragically.
When the people knew this, they were very angry and went to Zhou's house one after another. "
Zhou family?
Xiao Shuo had a bad premonition in his heart, and immediately asked the guards to find someone. He wanted to take someone away to Zhou's house.
Xie Lan stood aside, showing no intention of helping.
After Xiao Shuo and others left, Changfeng stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, should we go back to the mansion or enter the palace?"
"Go to Chu's house."
Chu Wulang was about to go to Tao's house to visit Tao Yaoyao. When he learned that Xie Lan was coming, he frowned slightly and then asked his servants to take him to the study.
"My lord, why are you here?"
"The second prince has taken action." Xie Lan said, "Now Xiao Shuo is taking people to the Zhou family, but I feel that Xiao Shuo's trip will be in vain."
"Why?" Could it be that those people could really force Zhou Ping to death? Seeing Xie Lan's face full of sarcasm, he thought of something and felt that Zhou Ping was more than worthy of his death.
"If it weren't for his greed, our Chu family's army would have suffered heavy losses in that battle. He deserved the fate he met today. When the prince comes here at this time, is it possible that he still expects me to save him?"
Chu Wulang had no intention of repaying evil with kindness.
"Our original purpose was to expose the truth and let them give justice to the soldiers who died on the battlefield. Now that the truth has been revealed, the prince should be happy."
Seeing that his expression was still as bad as ever, Chu Wulang said, "No wonder Yaoyao doesn't like to be with you. With your stern temper, that girl will like you."
Xie Lan frowned, "Chu Wulang, I am talking to you about something serious. Don't forget that the third prince was killed. At this time, someone released such news and forced Zhou Ping to death. Do you think they What’s the purpose?”
Naturally, they hope that this matter will end as soon as possible, and at the same time, everyone will feel that the third prince's death is more than justified, and the murderer behind the scenes is doing justice for heaven. He is a righteous man.
Wait a moment, Chu Wulang thought of something, and frowned again, "You suspect that these things were done by the second prince, just to eliminate the third prince without any effort.
Even if the incident comes to light one day, these people will stand by his side, and then the court will not be able to punish him? "
The second prince was much more cunning than the third prince, so it was not surprising that he could come up with such a method. It was just that the second prince took advantage of many people, including the Chu family.
"Your Majesty, what do you think your Majesty will think after knowing this?"
