Chapter 424: It's useless to talk too much

In fact, the news that Mrs. Xiang died suddenly of a vicious illness in Prince Rong's Mansion made many people at a loss. They couldn't understand what Prince Rong meant.

said that he was here to press the matter, but he made up a lie like "sudden illness", which even ordinary people did not believe. But if he said that he had bad intentions, he did not strike while the iron was hot and pointed the limelight of public opinion at Chen Guogong's mansion.

In doing so, he not only made Shen Liancheng and Chen Xiang unpredictable about his thoughts, but also made many people who were upset by Mrs. Xiang's death dare not act rashly.

are waiting. Everyone, including Shen Liancheng and Chen Xiang, was waiting.

Perhaps, when he finishes the funeral of Mrs. Xiang, he will gradually take action.

During this period, Shen Liancheng was not idle. Since Mrs. Xiang is dead, the people who were locked up by her in the Inner Court Division can't help but let go.

Thinking of the people whose heads were locked up there gave her a little headache. The most important thing is the father and son of Wucheng Hou Xue Tao, which makes her feel like a thorn in her back, and her flesh hurts.

She ordered the Inner Court Division to release Xue Tao and his son, and she waited for them to come back in the Marquis Wucheng Mansion.

She waited half an hour. The two brothers Xue Wen and Xue Rong came back, but they didn't see Xue Tao.

"What about Master Hou? He didn't come back? She was a little surprised.

"Why is the lady waiting in our house? Is it to see if we have lost some weight after eating in prison for so many days? When they entered the door, they heard that she had come half an hour ago, and Xue Wen and Xue Rong were surprised. Xue Wen was imprisoned in the Inner Court Department for many days, very unhappy, and his good impression and strangeness towards Shen Liancheng when he had never seen him were gone. Seeing her at this moment, he naturally had no deference.

"Where did Master Hou go?" Shen Liancheng always cared about this matter.

Xue Rong stepped forward, and he was not afraid to tell her with a cold face, "Hearing that Mrs. Xiang has passed away, Jiazun and several uncles who were also locked up in the Inner Court Division are anxious to go over and take one last look at the remains of the deceased. ”

is in such a hurry, in the end, it is the affection forged on the battlefield.

How deep is the affection between these people and Mrs. Xiang, and how much they hate her as a heavenly concubine and her husband now, right?

Thinking like this, a dry smile flashed at the corner of Shen Liancheng's mouth. When it came to the end, I was still a little annoyed and helpless.

"You killed her?" Xue Rong suddenly asked solemnly, without a little suspicion, just wanted to hear her say it in person, why.

In prison, his father had already told him about Mrs. Xiang. Such a Mrs. Xiang shouldn't have been killed! Who knew that as soon as he heard the news of her death, he was angry and hateful in his heart. Thinking that this matter was related to Shen Liancheng, he also felt an unprecedented disappointment.

He was very disappointed, Shen Liancheng reached the pinnacle of power, in order to consolidate the position of the young emperor, when did he become murderous and unblinking? Bad people and good people, don't you know the difference?

Shen Liancheng looked at Xue Rong and answered his question after a while, "It's not me." ”

"That's Chen Guogong?" Xue Rong almost gave birth to a glimmer of hope, "Is it what he meant, not what you meant?" ”

Perhaps, the husband sings and the wife follows, and Shen Liancheng is just doing things for Chen Xiang.

"If it's not me, it's not my husband." Shen Liancheng said, "My husband and I have always adhered to the same principle for anyone and everything. ”

"I don't believe it." Xue Rong didn't believe her words, "If it's not you, then why are you locking us up during this period?" Aren't you just worried that when you act, Mrs. Xiang's old friend will disrupt your plans? ”

"But we don't control everybody." Shen Liancheng told him, "That night, no one went to rescue Mrs. Xiang. ”

Xue Rong couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. Earlier, she said that it was not they who killed Mrs. Xiang, and now she said that she acted that night...... Is it time to chew words with him?

"It's a ploy to Madame Xiang." Shen Liancheng continued, "Mrs. Xiang wants to use her death to urge Prince Rong to inherit her legacy. She succeeded, didn't she? Now you, all of you, are pointing the finger at me and my husband. ”

"If you hadn't killed Mrs. Xiang," Xue Rong suddenly raised his voice, "How could the spearhead be pointed at you?!" If you do it, you do it, so why bother talking about it? ”

He glared at her, staring at a man of God who he had once looked so high, thinking that he was unattainable.

"Didn't do it!" Shen Liancheng couldn't help but raise his voice, "We're just assisting Prince Rong." From beginning to end, it was Prince Rong's request. The one who killed Mrs. Xiang was either Prince Rong or Mrs. Xiang herself. ”

"That's it!" Xue Wen on the side suddenly interjected, and he said with a sneer, "I almost can't understand it." Mrs. Xiang committed suicide? Prince Rong killed his mother? also called outsiders to mobilize the crowd to help? It's just funny, it's ridiculous. After that, he also asked Xue Rong, "Second brother, do you believe it?" ”

Xue Rong didn't say anything, but turned sideways to make his debut, and said to Shen Liancheng with an expressionless face: "If the lady has nothing else, please go back!" ”

When Shen Liancheng came, he thought that this would be the result. But she thought that Xue Tao would take it for granted to herself like this, but why did Xue Rong do this to herself?

She was a little annoyed. In the past, the "second brother of the in-laws" and "the younger sister of the in-laws" that you came and went with me turned out to be just a call?

She took a few steps, suddenly turned around, and called out "second brother".

Xue Rong stood still, but did not turn around.

Shen Liancheng was even more angry, but if she had to say something, she still had to say, "Second brother of the in-laws, today it is because you are the one who asked me this, I am willing to explain to you in detail." In other words, when the Hou Ye asked, I just said that it was useless. Now it seems, it's true! It is useless to say more. ”

Xue Rong turned back to look at her. Suddenly seeing the look of annoyance on her face, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Does he want to thank her for her attention, or do he want to ridicule her for doing something wicked, and still say that he is a good person?

He didn't think about how to respond, but Shen Liancheng had already turned around and left, leaving him with a stomach full of resentment and nowhere to vent.

The eldest brother Xue Wen suddenly slapped his chest with his fist, and said with a happy look: "Not bad, second brother, in front of the Heavenly Daughter, you dare to be so tough!" ”

Xue Rong calmed down the surging feelings in his heart, glanced at Xue Wen, and said, "Eldest brother is suitable, isn't there any respect." ”

"I'm an idle crane in the clouds, and I'm not afraid of anything I want in the officialdom." Xue Wen suddenly became worried as he spoke, "It's you, who offended her this time, and she won't embarrass you in the court in the future, right?" ”

"Embarrassed?" Xue Rong snorted, "She and Chen Guogong, it's good to be able to avoid the embarrassment of the ministers this time." ”

Obviously angry at the other party for killing innocent people, but thinking that the ministers would embarrass the other party because of this matter, he felt uncomfortable in his heart, and even worried about her......
