The scholar of the year was sitting under the stage at the moment, watching the reversal of the gods on the white curtain, and he couldn't return to his senses for a long time.
It turned out that although the young lady died, she still left a child...... That child, is it his child? It's a girl...... Is it his daughter?
Wait a minute! Xie Daohuan was stunned, what's wrong with him! How could he think that? Is he crazy!
This is obviously a trap, a deception, a trick made up without knowing what insidious purpose, how can he get too deep into the play?
She's dead.
But then he questioned, is he really dead? Did she really die as her stepmother had claimed? Why did he believe such a lie in the first place? No, no...... How could he believe in a ridiculous shadow puppet show? This is a trap, this is a trap, wake up and thank Daohuan! What the hell is wrong with you!
The story on the white curtain is not over yet, and An Jinghou has lost his cool in an instant. This past is a thorn in his heart, and having no children and no daughters is also a thorn in his heart, at this moment, the old dreams overlap, and he is defeated at once.
When the story developed to a new stage, An Jinghou couldn't bear to shoot the case. The girl who was taken away by the lady who lost her child has grown up and is slim and dazzling. She decided to find her biological father, but on the eve of the father and daughter about to meet, she was taken captive by the younger brother of her biological father and wife, and his innocence was usurped......
An Jinghou almost stared through the white curtain, and the surrounding civil and military officials were also stunned by this mutation. They looked at An Jinghou dumbfounded, puzzled why Master Xie, who was still talking and laughing just now, changed color in a moment.
His abrupt standing alarmed the King of Beizhao, and Chen Si asked, "What is Xie Hou doing?" ”
An Jinghou Xie Daohuan was as if he was deaf in both ears, and after the king of Beizhao patiently asked again, he finally came back to his senses and said: "The king forgives his sins!" The minister just thinks that this shadow puppet story is ridiculous, and there is a lot of plot missing in the middle, and it suddenly jumps to such an end, obviously deliberately fooling the king and deceiving the Wang family, and it should be taken down and questioned! ”
Xie Houye's current status is like the sky, and the king has to endure a few points, not to mention the ministers? So someone immediately chimed in: "What Hou Ye Xie said is very true, this story is confused, unclear, and obviously deceitful." Dare to be so presumptuous in front of the king, and not punishing is not enough to show Wang Wei! ”
"Please punish this arrogant man who is good at shadow puppetry!"
"Oh-" After Chen Si dragged out his voice, he glanced sideways at Mrs. Yuhua, but saw that his sister Wang had an ugly face, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In fact, Mrs. Yu Hua was also shocked in her heart. Of course, Chiba didn't tell her in advance what exactly this shadow puppet show would be, only that it was related to his righteous sister Yu'er's recognition of her father. She silently watched the follow-up of the shadow puppet show, and roughly understood what Chiba meant, which was nothing more than telling Xie Hou Ye that the girl did not die directly back then, and she even gave birth to a daughter, and now this daughter is going to recognize her biological father.
If there is no later story, Mrs. Yuhua would almost have to believe what Chiba said, this is just to pave the way for Miss Yu'er's father. As long as An Jinghou is attracted to come here, she feels that it is nothing to do, because she knows that once An Jinghou is no longer facing Ah Si, it will inevitably disrupt the secret arrangements and plans of her younger brother of the monarch, and when the time comes, he will be in a hurry, and he will inevitably have no time to take care of him, and tonight's crisis will naturally pass.
Although Ah Si has a reputation for being lewd and lustful, Mrs. Yuhua knows that he is actually a very careful person, in other words, there are a lot of doubts, as long as he doubts, he feels that it is not safe and unsafe to do it, he will stop, although it is only temporary, but it is enough, and when he does it again, she believes that at that time Ming Yuan has left the capital of the Northern Zhao Dynasty and returned to South Vietnam.
She didn't ask for much, just peace tonight. But everything started to get out of hand.
In fact, she deceived Chiba about the night in the gambling house. She didn't bring back Miss Yu'er. Before Miss Yu'er was noticed by her, she had been taken into the carriage of the Hou Mansion by the people of the fifth prince. This is not the first time that the fifth prince has done this kind of thing, at least Mrs. Yuhua has seen it many times.
The fifth prince is currying favor with his brother-in-law. What is the most lacking of a powerful man with a limitless future but no children and no daughters? Woman, glamorous woman who can bear children for his brother-in-law!
Even if doing so would hurt his sister, so what? Man does not perish for his own sake. He didn't believe that after so many years, his sister couldn't give birth to a boy and half a girl from his brother-in-law, and Mrs. Xie Hou's status could be stable for a lifetime, he didn't believe it.
Mrs. Xie Hou, this is a position that many famous ladies in the north secretly envy. The fifth prince is worried, worried that his sister's position will be lost sooner or later because of the lack of a queen. What to do then? Who does the entire Zhou family rely on? If it really comes to that time, who will respectfully call him the fifth son again?
Over the years, he has relied on Xie Hou's prestige to be used to doing good things, and he has harmed many people and offended many people, so the status of honor and favor must not be lost, even if he is unscrupulous, he must maintain it, otherwise the fate of the Zhou family and the fate of his fifth son will be extremely worrying.
He began to search for the right woman for his brother-in-law, young and beautiful, who could flirt with men. He actually couldn't figure out his brother-in-law's preferences, he didn't seem to be greedy for women, although his sister hadn't given birth to children over the years, but Xie Hou didn't accept concubines because of this, except for the two maids who his sister married back then who proposed concubines, but he never heard that his brother-in-law had any intention of who he wanted to accept into the house.
However, once he went to see his sister, and when his sister was upset and drunk, she mentioned a past incident, saying that Hou Ye once fell in love with a woman and wanted to take a concubine into the house. It was also from that time that the mind of the fifth prince finally began to come alive.
He thought, how can a man not steal? Seeing that my brother-in-law is serious on weekdays, it is estimated that he is a scholar with thin skin, and he is embarrassed to say it because of his face. So in this kind of thing, it's time for his empathetic brother-in-law to run.
That night, he took a fancy to Luo Yushang at a glance in the gambling houses around him, so he proposed to bet with Chiba on his wife. In fact, Luo Yushang was not brought by him to enjoy it for himself, he wanted to give it to his brother-in-law Xie Daohuan. As long as this woman has a strong stomach and gives birth to a boy and a half girl to her brother-in-law, even if her brother-in-law is disgusted with her sister at that time, for the sake of him doing so much for her brother-in-law, at least she will not treat him lightly.
The fifth son's wishful thinking played very well, but unfortunately he met the stubble of Chiba, and he ruined his interest all night. The beauty didn't arrive, and she lost 35,000 taels. really responded to that sentence, stealing chickens is not a recipe for rice. Mrs. Yuhua mediated, and he reluctantly gave the silver. Money is not a decimal number, and he also hurts, but the most unbearable thing is that he can't get rid of the evil breath in his chest.
Since Mrs. Yuhua took over Huo Xiyun's military power, she also had to give Xie Hou three points, so although the fifth prince lost the silver that night, Mrs. Yuhua did not stop him from taking Luo Yushang away.
From the very beginning, Mrs. Yuhua concluded that the Yu'er girl was definitely not Chiba's wife, and the woman who could calmly accept Chiba's arrangement must not be important to Chiba herself, and it may even be a fireworks woman hired by Chiba for money, so she felt that it was too hard to offend the fifth prince for a fireworks woman, and then it was not wise to complain about Xie Houye, so they each took a step back.
Mrs. Yu Hua felt that this move would not affect her cooperation with Chiba, and it was not until that night in the lakeside pavilion that Chiba mentioned the Yu'er girl and her life experience again, and Mrs. Yu Hua was like five thunderbolts and lost her temper in an instant.
Although the fifth son is arrogant, he is actually very afraid of his wife. As for the rumors about his real intention of collecting beautiful women, Mrs. Yuhua was not ignorant of them. She was in a cold sweat, if Miss Yu'er was really Xie Hou's biological daughter, if the fifth prince gave Miss Yu'er to Xie Hou, then ...... It was a nightmare.
So she asked Yan Gongzi to come to the door overnight to bring back Miss Yu'er. She was afraid that Chiba would see the clue, so she didn't even let Yan Gongzi take Miss Yu'er back to Mrs. Yuhua's mansion, but placed her in another courtyard. She didn't see the Yu'er girl with her own eyes, she asked Yan Gongzi, and she didn't ask any clues. She didn't dare to think about it, she was exhausted, and one more straw could easily crush her, she had to do her best to stay awake and survive the night of Fang's birthday, and the rest would be later, even if Chiba wanted her life at that time, just give it to him.
But everything was wrong in front of him. The last scene on the white curtain stunned Mrs. Yuhua, who could not believe what she was seeing.
This shadow puppet show was arranged by Chiba, but why did he know what happened to Miss Yu'er later? If he doesn't know, it's just speculation, it can only mean that he is a terrible person, so terrifying that it is chilling.
Chen Si said: "Sister Wang? Sister Wang? ”
Mrs. Yuhua replied, "Please forgive the king." ”
King Beizhao didn't speak, and Mrs. Yuhua continued: "The shadow puppet show is just to make everyone happy, how can you say it so seriously? Today is the joy of Mrs. Ben's birthday, I hope everyone can come and return happy, if because this shadow puppet show swept everyone's interest, I let this shadow puppet artist come forward to accompany you, the king thinks it's good? ”
Why An Jinghou was so out of shape, Chen Si couldn't guess, but it was really unnecessary to be angry with others for a shadow puppet show. So the king of Beizhao walked down the steps of Mrs. Yuhua, "It's okay, just let this person come forward to congratulate Sister Wang and make up for this mistake." ”
Mrs. Yu Hua nodded, "The artists performing shadow puppets haven't come forward yet?" ”
The shadows on the white curtain vanished, the music stopped, and a man spun out from behind the softly lit curtain on the stage, and then carefully descended the side steps, slowly approaching.
From the moment this man came out, everyone present held their breath.
Because this man was really beyond everyone's expectations.
