Danyang's provocations again and again made Mrs. Wu endure her arrogance.
As she sat up angrily, she suddenly sneered.
"Girl, do you think this is the princess's mansion? How can you continue to be so arrogant and arrogant?"
A cold smile, accompanied by a sudden return to dignified behavior.
Although the people around her still seemed to be her familiar mother-in-law, the old concubine of the Duke's Mansion.
But not only did Du not feel at ease, she was also so frightened that she forgot her anger towards Danyang just a moment ago. As he backed away slightly, more cold sweat broke out on his back.
Du Shi couldn't explain why, and she didn't feel anything special this time. However, she knew very well that at this moment, the old lady was murdering this wild girl again!
The most terrible thing is that this is obviously not a momentary impulse.
So, what should she do as a bystander? !
Seeing Danyang being killed and then being silenced by the old lady?
Or should he try to dissuade her again and be killed directly by the old lady in anger?
Or maybe she became an accomplice, killing the wild girl with the old lady, and then destroying the body and destroying all traces? !
For a time, Du Shi's mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts.
No matter which one appeared, she couldn't help but tremble violently, and was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.
So, in the blink of an eye, Du Shi, whose heart was too heavy and frightened by herself, collapsed on the ground with her feet weak.
Not to mention helping Mrs. Wu, even if she wanted to escape for a while, she had no strength. Not to mention, overthinking and tension had made her dizzy, nauseous, and her whole body shrank into a ball. Why don't you think about it and watch the excitement or follow-up of the other two people in the house.
At this time, Danyang crossed his legs with interest and asked with a curious smile:
"Oh, the old lady said this, but is there any good way to make me obey? Oh, I am not afraid of being beaten, and you don't dare and will not ask my mother to help...could it be that you want to kill me on the spot now? Venting your anger? Haha.”
Chirp, chirp——
Although Mrs. Wu listened expressionlessly throughout the whole process, she only narrowed her eyes slightly at the end.
But she held Xiao Ji's hand tightly, and she didn't know when it had become a fist. And the moment before Danyang's words fell, along with Danyang's last words, three deep scratches were left on the table.
"good very good!"
While Mrs. Wu squeezed out these words through her teeth, she straightened her back even more and looked down at Danyang, who was sitting on her lower right hand, smiling boredly, as if she was watching a play to relieve her boredom.
When Danyang heard this, he raised his eyebrows when Mrs. Wu suddenly sneered and said:
"Haha, don't be afraid, I don't know how to do it myself, old lady."
Danyang blinked, changed his posture, supported his forehead with his hands, and guessed at the words:
"The old lady wants to call someone to do it? Isn't that bad? There will be witnesses and clues for tracing afterwards, but it won't be as clean and tidy as your own."
Her "intimate" and thoughtful suggestions and reminders, not to mention the other party's gratitude, were "unfortunate" that she didn't even get a good look.
But probably because she had the "experience" of the first two times, Mrs. Wu was not so angry this time that she gasped in anger, but the color of her lips became darker.
And when she finished speaking in Danyang, she already laughed and said:
"I don't need to worry about it, Princess. Old lady, I have not lived all my life in vain. I still understand the meaning of murder and heart-breaking."
At this moment, there was no one else around, and Mrs. Wu was no longer too lazy to pretend to be a kind elder. She even completely took off her previous elegant mask.
The moment Danyang heard this, his eyebrows swelled slightly.
Sure enough, the next moment I heard Mrs. Wu sneer and say:
"That's right. That's your mother."
After Mrs. Wu clearly gave her goal, she spoke with a smile:
"Oh, the eldest princess of Qinghe is indeed a noble person. Although the old woman is her mother-in-law, it is difficult for her to order her to stay at the Duke's Mansion for two days. Not to mention, let her stay with her in the morning and evening. It’s filial piety.”
She shook her head regretfully as she spoke, but then she said excitedly:
"However, you have raised such an evil person, and you have not given birth to an heir for my son for many years." Mrs. Wu glared at Danyang proudly, but her eyes seemed to penetrate her to look at someone in the distance, and she couldn't help herself. She smiled repressedly and said: "Haha, for the sake of my son's incense, it is very reasonable for the old woman to take a good concubine for him."
As Mrs. Wu gradually revealed her true feelings, the smile on Danyang's face gradually faded.
At the same time, deep down in my heart, I was filled with rage.
Sure enough, this old cunning woman had long been thinking about how to target her mother!
And she really heard it right in her last life.
In the mother's previous life, due to the series of twists and turns and heavy pressure after childbirth, the blood leakage developed into the final hemorrhagic collapse before her body had a good rest.
And after her mother's beauty faded away, wouldn't the good concubine mentioned by the old cunning woman become the best candidate for her successor?
It's a pity that her father is obsessed with her mother and refuses to obey the various arrangements of this old cunning woman, preferring to stay at the border forever. Even after her mother's funeral, she never returned to Beijing. She never saw Yanshan again until he died in battle.
At the beginning, among all the heavy pressures, those coming from the Duke's Mansion and this old cunning woman were definitely one of the heaviest.
When he thought of this, Danyang couldn't wait to rush forward and eat his flesh raw!
But she just gritted her teeth, raised her head, and stared at the twisted smiling face above her for a moment.
At the same time, he warned in his heart and restrained himself.
This account needs to be settled slowly, and those people in the past cannot be spared even a cent! But asking for one or two things right now is the most foolish move that will not help anything.
After taking a deep breath, Danyang smiled coldly again, looked up sharply, and said cynically:
"Oh? Are you so sure? With my father's deep love for my mother, will he listen to your divorce and marry another? And if my mother doesn't like this decision, respecting and caring for my mother is far better than pampering me..."
Before Danyang could carry Emperor Xuande out, Mrs. Wu, who had already expected this, had already directly answered and deduced:
"Of course. If the eldest princess insists that she and my son are deeply in love with each other and cannot tolerate that little concubine, then she is forcing the old woman to go to the Jinluan Palace to file a complaint."
When the words came to this point, Mrs. Wu laughed confidently.
"Haha, no matter how you say it, there is an ancient saying, the three most important of unfilial piety are not having offspring. In front of the people of the world, the emperor will not, much less, be too protective of his own shortcomings. Moreover, what I am suing is for his own son's unfilial piety, and the emperor can control it. I can’t speak, and I can’t speak.”
If it really develops, it will be a situation of choosing one of the two. No matter which choice is made, it will be an extremely painful situation for Princess Qinghe, Princess Danyang or her father.
On the other hand, Mrs. Wu. In addition to the initial sacrifice of face and public accusation against her son for his unfilial piety, which later became a topic of conversation after dinner, she soon won the unanimous sympathy of public opinion.
And maybe, after Danyang's father lost his official position and was attacked by public opinion, it would be easier for Mrs. Wu to control her.
