The two maids looked frightened, and hurriedly said: "Master, the third lady, she refused to eat, and asked the slaves and maids to pour the breakfast, saying that they didn't know what the consequences would be if they ate it." ”

The king was confused when he went out, and he didn't understand what he meant by this. "What are the consequences? What are the consequences of having a meal?" So, he decided to go in and persuade the third lady himself.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard a slightly angry voice from the bed: "I said I wouldn't eat, I won't eat if I starve to death, let me go down all of them!"

Hearing this, Wang Yuanwai was not angry, but shook his head and smiled: "Is it because the food cooked in the kitchen is not appetizing, so you don't eat it when you starve to death?

Hearing that it was the master, the third lady Huo Ran got up from the bed, suddenly threw herself into his arms, and sobbed: "Master, it's not that the concubine doesn't want to eat, but I really don't dare to eat." ”

Wang Yuanwai was even more confused: "Why don't you dare to eat it, is it possible that there is still poison in this meal?" was originally a joke, but it made the body of the person in his arms tremble. The third lady looked up at the king, her face was full of tears, and she looked very pitiful and pitiful. "Sir, I'm ...... Woo woo woo ......" halfway through the sentence, and cried again. It hurt Wang Yuanwai's heart to be painful and anxious. "What's wrong, what's going on, say it, I'll call the shots for you!"

The third lady shook her head: "You can't be the master of this matter, master......" Wang Yuanwai became even more anxious when he heard it, there are still things in this palace that he can't be the master?

The third lady showed a sad expression on her face, and was silent for a long time before she said: "Yesterday, the concubine invited a doctor to check the pulse to see if the concubine was suffering from any disease, and she had never given birth to a son and a half daughter for the lord for so many years. The concubine was frightened when she heard this, and it was impossible for the concubine to take the child-avoiding medicine herself, so she hurriedly took my dinner to the doctor for examination, and after the doctor's examination, he really checked the child-avoiding medicine in the soup. Speaking of this, the third lady wiped her tears in a timely manner, "The concubine really doesn't know how there is a child-avoiding medicine in her diet, and when she asks the maids, she doesn't know anything, and the concubine can't interrogate all the subordinates, and even if she is interrogated, the person who took the medicine will definitely not admit it, and she doesn't know what to do for a while, so she has to eat nothing and use this stupid method." ”

At this time, Wang Yuanwai's heart was already surging, when the third lady said "child avoidance medicine", he understood, and naturally overlapped the person behind the scenes with the eldest lady, he didn't have to think about it to know, this must be the eldest lady's handiwork, the eldest lady was afraid that the side room pregnancy and birth of an heir would shake her status as a housemother, and it would be even more unfavorable to Chacha, so she drugged the food of the third lady. Based on this inference, Wang Yuanwai quickly thought of the second lady's muteness, originally he couldn't figure it out, why the good lady wanted to poison the second lady, but now she understands it all, it must be because the second lady knows the secret of her child avoidance drug, so she wants to shut her up. Thinking of this, Wang Yuanwai couldn't help but be startled, when did her wife, who was originally gentle and beautiful, become so vicious and vicious?

Looking at the old man's expression, the third lady knew that he had already suspected going to the eldest lady, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he continued to pretend to be pitiful: "Master, what do you say about the concubine's body, I don't know who is credible and who is not." ”

Wang Yuanwai patted her on the back distressedly, saying that he would definitely make decisions for her in this matter, and let her be patient first.

The third lady was also very obedient, and nodded obediently with tears at the moment, but she still sobbed and shook her shoulders, how pitiful and pitiful this look was, which made Wang Yuanwai feel distressed like something, and suddenly resented the eldest lady. The third lady leaned on Wang Yuanwai's arms, and said in a coquettish voice: "Master, you must be the master of the concubine, this time it is a child avoidance medicine, and the next time it may be rat poison, the concubine is really afraid......" Wang Yuanwai also comforted her vigorously: "Don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter, and I will definitely not tolerate it." ”

The third lady listened to his extremely firm voice, and suddenly felt a lot more settled, she knew that it was most appropriate to use such a method to let Wang Yuanwai know, and then let him crusade against the eldest lady, firstly, she herself would not arouse Wang Yuanwai's suspicions, and secondly, Wang Yuanwai had already decided in her heart that the eldest lady was a femme fatale, and she had not been allowed to conceive his child for many years, and the eldest lady could not be allowed to lie.

After appeasing the third lady, Wang Yuanwai went out and came to the eldest lady's side violently, the eldest lady was giving Cha Cha breakfast in the courtyard, and Cha Cha was playing and eating at the same time, the scene was originally happy, but Wang Yuanwai broke in, and as soon as he came in, he slapped the eldest lady, and regardless of Cha Cha and his subordinates were still on the spot, he scolded: "You vicious woman, what good things have you done for so many years?"

The eldest lady was stunned on the spot, she didn't expect that the man who was gentle and flattering to herself would one day beat herself, and all the subordinates were also stunned on the spot, they never expected that the old man usually looked at a polite person who was such a violent person. Only Cha Cha reacted the fastest and most directly, and immediately cried, and hugged the eldest lady's legs, trembling with fright. The eldest lady came back to her senses at this time, tried to calm herself, and hurriedly comforted Cha Cha in a low voice, telling her not to be afraid, and then instructed the nurse: "Nurse, take the eldest lady down!" Of course, the nurse knew that she couldn't let Cha Cha stay here, so she hugged her and stayed away.

Wang Yuanwai was still glaring angrily, and he was not moved by the tears of Cha Cha at all, which made the eldest lady's heart like ashes, and the little hope she had for him in her heart was wiped out at this moment. The eldest lady looked calm and cold, waved her hand and retreated, and then said: "The master slapped me without asking, is this for the sake of her husband's demeanor?" At this moment, she has already used "me" to refer to herself, not "concubine", which is enough to show how completely disappointed she is in Wang Yuanwai. Wang Yuanwai flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "Hmph, what do you still have the face to tell me about 'being a husband'? So you have been taking child-avoiding medicine in the food in the side room for many years, but you still have the demeanor of being a wife?"

Hearing "Child-Avoiding Medicine" Three words, the eldest lady is not panicked, because she has already guessed the purpose of his coming, so many years, although the relationship between her and Wang Yuanwai has not been as good as before, but she is the main room, and she is the original wife who accompanied Wang Yuanwai to start from scratch, Wang Yuanwai has given her a little thin noodles many times, no matter when, she will treat her politely and respectfully, so even if he knew that she put poison in the food of the second lady and poisoned the second lady a few days ago, he just said a few words to her very calmly, which shows that she did not touch his bottom line, and he just fought hard, without caring about her face, which shows that he has been so angry that he can't control it, her bottom line has been broken, and his bottom line is the heir.

"Master, there is no evidence, don't slander me indiscriminately, I can't afford such a vicious charge. ”

Seeing that the eldest lady was so calm and composed, Wang Yuanwai was simply angry, raised his hand and hit the eldest lady's face again, and suddenly heard the eldest lady say: "Master, if you want to beat me, it is best for the master to slap me to death, and then spread it, what will others say? I guess the world will definitely say that the lord you spoiled the concubine and killed the wife, and beat the original wife who had shared the hardships to death alive, not that I was vicious and could not tolerate the concubine." Alas, it's just a pity, Cha Cha lost her mother at such a young age, it's really pitiful, the world doesn't know if they will be more sympathetic to her because of this?" The reason why Wang Yuanwai can listen to it is actually because what the eldest lady said is true, it is true that if there is no eldest lady, if it were not for the fact that the eldest lady did not dislike him for being poor and insisted on eloping with him, her father would not have given him all the property later, so he can have today, it is indeed more than half of the credit of the eldest lady, which he cannot deny or forget, so he hesitated. But the anger in his heart was uneasy, and after withdrawing his hand, he roared angrily: "You are the wife of your original match, you can do whatever you want, can you cover the sky with one hand? Where have you thrown all the three obediences and four virtues of a woman? Do you still have the demeanor of a master mother?"

The eldest lady thought it was funny, and almost laughed out loud: "Hehe, 'three from the four virtues', 'the demeanor of the master's mother'? Master, have you come to tell me these things now? I have had those things, and I have strictly abided by them, but what has the result, what have I gotten, what I have gotten is your indifference, your disgust and disgust, if it is just for me, I will admit it if I can bear it, but you have no conscience, you treat Cha Cha the same, how can I still swallow my anger?" Since no matter what I do, the result is the same, then why should I embarrass myself? I want to do what I can do, protect what I want to protect, and make myself more ruthless, I must put aside the so-called three obedience and four virtues and the demeanor of the master mother, this is what you forced me, and it was your concubines who forced me!"

Wang Yuanwai was speechless for a while, he never thought that his indifference to her and her daughter directly led to a great change in her temperament, for a moment, he actually blamed himself a little, but soon this thin guilt was covered up by anger, no matter how much the eldest lady resented him and hated him, he should not stop him from continuing the incense, this is the top priority!" That alone would have given you a leave of absence!"

The eldest lady laughed a few more times, and her laughter was full of sadness and desolation: "Divorce me, master, don't joke with yourself, why did you divorce me? How can you give up? I hold more than half of the Wang family's property in my name, is the lord really willing to let me leave with such a property?"

Being seen through his mind and speaking out, Wang Yuanwai suddenly felt ashamed and angry, and he couldn't think of words to refute it for a while. He didn't really plan to divorce his wife, he just said, thinking that he could scare and scare the eldest lady and suppress her arrogance, but he didn't expect to be suppressed by her in turn, as a man, he couldn't help but feel that his dignity had been violated, but he was helpless. Who let her own so much property from the royal family? If it weren't for this, he would not have been subject to the eldest lady at every turn, so much so that he turned a blind eye to what she did for many years.

The eldest lady seemed to have seen through everything, her face turned from a smile to a cold face, and she said coldly: " Master, since you already know about this, I don't have to deny it, that's right, it is true that I sent someone to put child avoidance medicine in the diet of the third lady, it has been eight years now, I believe that the purpose of doing this I believe that needless to say you also understand, I just don't want that slut to conceive your child, if she has a child, then my position as the housemother is threatened, and my tea and tea have no future, I will never let the children born by other women inherit the property of the Wang family, except for my Chacha, no one is qualified to touch the grass and trees of the Wang family, no one is qualifiedThe more the eldest lady spoke, the more excited she became, and at the end of her words, she almost yelled.

Wang Yuanwai almost couldn't believe his eyes and ears, he didn't believe that the eldest lady had gone crazy to this step, and she didn't know the situation of Chacha, did she want to hand over all the property of the Wang family to a fool? "Aren't you crazy? How can Cha Cha inherit the family property? She will only lose the inheritance of the family property like this, don't you know?"

"No, Cha Cha won't be like this forever, she won't be like this forever, I believe that one day she will be like everyone else, no, she will be smarter than others. As she spoke, a trace of tenderness and kindness appeared on her face, as if Cha Cha was right in front of her. But in Wang Yuanwai's eyes, he only felt disgusted: "The doctor has already said that Chacha will be like this for the rest of his life, and you still refuse to let go?"

When the eldest lady heard Wang Yuanwai say this, she became even more excited: "Those doctors, one by one, are quacks, and whether they can't be cured is their medical problem, not Chacha's problem!" Wang Yuanwai only felt that the eldest lady was hopeless, and no matter how much she said it, it was in vain.
