Chapter 265: A Transaction
King An suddenly realized that his words might not be very pleasant for Fang Xiaoyu. He had seen Fang Xiaoyu many times, but it was the first time he had felt the killing intent that was almost condensed into substance like Fang Cai's body.
Even if they were already in hostility, even if he had never had a good face for Xici and was embarrassed everywhere, he had never felt such a murderous intent from her.
If she really loves Xici, perhaps the suspicion and denial of Xici's mother in his words will become a particularly harsh thing. When he learned the truth, looking back on the past, even he felt like a bastard.
If Jian An really did such a shameless thing, no matter how ruthless and ruthless he was, he didn't think it was a problem. Even if he doesn't love Jian An, it is a fact that Jian An is his princess. What she is carrying is not only her own face, but also the face of King An's Mansion and his face.
After learning that his wife was having an affair with another man, and even gave birth to a child, and he had to raise this child, God knows how far he felt that his dignity had been trampled on.
But when he learned that a qiē was just someone else's calculation, and then thought back on what he had done, even he felt thrilled.
He doesn't have many women, so he naturally has few heirs. Except for Shilan's daughter, those who can inherit King An's Mansion are Xiqian in addition to Xici.
In the past, he felt that Xici was a sinister species, not his own son, but he occupied the position of the son of the world, and let his son Xiqian be wronged. But now, it has been proved that Xi Ci and Xi Qian are his sons, but because Li Suqing's calculating husband and wife are strangers, and his calculating father and son have turned against each other, his feelings for Xi Qian at the moment are extremely complicated. Even if he knows that the adult's fault should not be blamed on the child, he still feels awkward and wants to be out of sight.
Fang Xiaoyu also knew such an inside story for the first time.
She has never understood King An's attitude towards Ye Xici. Even if he doesn't like Jian An, after all, Ye Xici is also his biological son. Even if you ignore the two of them, don't give them treatment that matches their status, and even never sneer, why do you have to put people to death again and again?
She understands that many of these days and ages are involuntary. Although King An did not dare to resist the decree and refused to marry, but put the fault on the innocent Jian An, a prince with royal blood, who has lived in the huge dye vat of the palace since he was a child, will be selfish. Huifan thinks about herself in advance, and she will shirk responsibility everywhere, and she is not incomprehensible. After all, the royal family is high, as a courtier, how can he reason with these superiors?
So. King An and Li Suqing have already made a lifelong decision, but because of the emperor's holy decree, Jian An was sideways, so King An was angry and sprinkled his anger on Jian An, not mentioning right or wrong, at least the motive can be explained.
However, just because she likes Li Suqing and loves Ye Xiqian, but she can't wait to get rid of Ye Xi, she feels that King An's thinking is very abnormal.
Do you just want Ye Xiqian to become the son of the world? So in order to make way for Ye Xiqian. Ye Xici has to die?
Tiger poison is still not a child, King An is also affectionate to Li Suqing, it is said that he should not be such a vicious and shameless person, why should he be cruel to Jian An and Ye Xici?
It was the first time that Fang Xiaoyu had heard the truth about such a stalemate between King An and Jian An, and she thought, I am afraid that even Ye Xici had not heard of these reasons that were closely related to him.
Princess Ann had an affair with other men. It's unbelievable.
From what she found out about Jian An, she is not such a person who disregards etiquette and shame.
So what did Li Suqing do back then to make King An misunderstand that Jian An was a watery Yang Hua shameless woman? thus led to Jian An's tragic end, and also led to Ye Xici's heart-wrenching and painful childhood.
King An's expression became cautious. For Fang Xiaoyu. He didn't really like it all the time. This woman inherited his father's stubborn temper, and it was difficult for anyone to compromise lightly with any identity.
His father, Fang Jianzhang, knew that as a member of the royal family, he was the emperor's younger brother. But when they met, they never had any respect at all, and even came to threaten him when they got off the court, and they never seemed to think about the consequences.
He used to hate Fang Jianzhang's unscrupulous character when he held military power in his hands, but for outsiders, Fang Jianzhang was mostly gentle, and some people in the court even said that he was elegant and like a civil official. In addition, he is indeed a scholar, which confuses the eyes of many people.
And Fang Xiaoyu inherited Fang Jianzhang's cunning. At first glance, she looks gentle and lovely, please be gentle and generous, and she looks sweet and lovely, but who knows how terrible it is for her to start a temper?
As her father-in-law, since she married into the palace, has he ever truly respected him? Didn't you see that they were still staring at him with a look like they were going to kill?
But he was a little glad that Fang Xiaoyu had become his daughter-in-law. He couldn't imagine that if Fang Xiaoyu hadn't appeared by chance and hadn't saved Xici, would Xici have now become a tomb in the imperial tomb?
In the past, when Xi Ci returned home with an injury, he always maliciously thought about why he was so fatal? Why don't you die outside? But now he is afraid countless times, if Xi Ci really died, or died under his orders, what kind of feeling would he feel when he learned the truth and the truth came out?
Will you die of angina? Will it be painful?
He killed his own son with his own hands, but he was lost to a conspiracy devised by someone else.
Fang Xiaoyu didn't fail to see King An's guilty and regretful expression, but she scoffed.
No matter what the reason is that he and Jian An are so-for-tat, but he is gullible and believes the words of others, and makes judgments in vain without checking the facts, thinking that pushing a qiē onto the conspirators behind the scenes can wash away the sins of his life?
However, Fang Xiaoyu did not continue to release the killing intent. Although she wants to kill someone for catharsis now, the top priority is to thoroughly understand the ins and outs of the year. This is crucial to how Ye Xici will choose in the future.
"I know what kind of damage this misunderstanding has caused to Xici, but now that the truth is revealed, I am willing to try my best to make up for the mistakes I made in the past, and I only hope that Xici can give me a chance." King An's tone was almost pleading.
He had fewer women and fewer children. Now the woman he loves has become a slut of wolf ambition, he feels that everything is so false, and the sudden sense of loneliness almost drowns out all his spirits.
The person who has been lying on the pillow for more than 20 years is a wicked person with a mask, and the sweet words and soft words of the past have become a sad joke, and he is a little breathless.
At this time. He desperately needs Ye Xici's forgiveness, as long as there is a slight chance to make amends, at least he will feel comforted in his heart.
Fang Xiaoyu didn't buy it, facing his confession. With a cruel sneer on his face, he said, "Isn't it that my father doesn't plan to make a clear statement?" ”
King An was stunned. Then he said with a guilty face: "If you want to know the ins and outs, instead of asking me, it is better for her to tell me." ”
With that, a woman came out of the room.
The woman was a little old. The skin on the face is a little rough and there are some dark brown spots scattered around. There are calluses on the palms of the hands, and there are some slight rickets even when walking.
Fang Xiaoyu had actually discovered that there was still a person hidden in the house, her breathing was uneven, and it was too easy to expose herself. In front of a person with strong martial arts, such a disordered breathing is like a lamp pointing out the direction, dazzling and impossible to ignore.
Fang Xiaoyu squinted slightly, and the cruelty that appeared in his expression at the right time fell into this woman's eyes, and a piercing chill couldn't help but spread all over her body.
"Say it, I'll listen." Fang Xiaoyu's expression did not fluctuate at all. In the eyes of King An, it is like an emotionless stone. But the look on her face that this woman saw when she was the king of An. But it was a surge of murderous machines.
The woman could barely stand, and if it weren't for the last bit of courage to support her, she almost fell to her knees.
Fang Xiaoyu gave her such a sense of oppression.
"Say everything you said before to the princess." King An's eyes showed disgust. If it weren't for them, how could he have gotten into such a trouble with his son?
It was his first son, and he was almost about to experience the joy of being a father, but he was beaten into the dust, and he first felt the humiliation of the raging tide.
"Slave maid...... Slave maid ...... "The slave's nervous sweat was like a spring, and most of his clothes were soaked in an instant, and he stammered and could barely say a complete sentence. Even she herself found it incredible. Even when facing the prince, she had never been so nervous, why did she feel like she was being targeted by a powerful beast when facing the princess, which made her legs weak. It's no longer possible to move.
"If you don't speak well, it's useless to keep this tongue. Why don't you ask someone to cut them one by one, fry them in an oil pan, and eat them yourself? Fang Xiaoyu's voice was like the king of Hades from the underworld, and King An and the grandmother couldn't help but think of the eighteen layers of hell, and couldn't help but shudder.
Mama finally couldn't bear Fang Xiaoyu's cold gaze. She knelt on the ground with a pop, and her left knee was in pain because she knelt on a small stone, and cold sweat broke out from the pain.
But she didn't dare to cry out in pain, so she had to endure the pain that her legs were almost gone, and she kept kneeling on the stones, trembling and saying: "The slave's name is Songlu, and when Madame entered the house, she was transferred to serve Madame." Therefore, what the lady has done over the years, the slaves and maids are clear, and many of them even participate in it. ”
"Songlu ......" Fang smiled and recited Songlu's name with the corners of his mouth, but Songlu was scared half to death.
"Madame is the adopted daughter of Lord Jian Zheng, she has been an orphan since she was a child, she was taken in by Lord Jane, raised outside the house, and was taught many skills on how to arouse the love of men, just so that one day, she can be used by Zhou Guifei to envelop the man Zhou Guifei needs."
Song Lu didn't dare to pause, and continued: "Before the princess married into the palace, there were rumors outside that the prince and Zhou Guifei had some unclear relationship. ”
"Madame, because she is jealous of the princess, has no rejection of this matter. Because he was taught how to seduce men since he was a child, he fell into the trap of his wife and loved his wife very much. ”
"Madame provoked the princess in front of the princess, and deliberately arranged for the princess to meet with a foreign man, and they talked very happily, causing the prince to misunderstand and suspect that the princess was having an affair with others. In fact, the man was sent by Lord Jane to meet the princess, and he brought Lord Jane's admonition to the princess, and the princess was filial and smiled at her. ”
"This matter is Lord Jane's strategy to cooperate with Madame, from the very beginning, the man under the guise of passing on Lord Jane's teachings, just to see the arrival of the prince, do something that is easy to misunderstand, and detain the name of the water-based poplar flower on the princess."
"Madame's plan was undoubtedly a success. On the wedding night, the prince tortured the princess fiercely, all under the calculation of the lady. And the slave maid is also the spy who was arranged to enter the palace in advance by Lord Jian in order to make an internal response for his wife. Later, the lady successfully entered the palace as a concubine, and chose a slave to serve, and the slave and maid have been following the lady and dealing with some unsightly things for her. ”
Song Lu told everything she knew.
Of course, she knew very little. only knew that Li Suqing was Concubine Zhou's person, and Lord Jian arranged for her to enter King An's Mansion just to receive Mrs. An.
She didn't know that Jian An and Zhou Ling's identities had been reversed. I don't know that Zhou Ling is Jian Zhengyan's biological daughter, and Jian An is Zhou Xiang's lost daughter. I don't know that the loss of Miss Zhou Xiangfu back then was Jian Zhengyan's calculation for the sake of this day.
She only knew that she wanted to help her husband stir up the feelings between Princess An and the prince, let her wife take the throne, and then think of giving birth to a child, so that the child could sit on the throne of King An, so that King An's mansion would also be marked by the concubine of Zhou.
But who knows, in the end, although Princess An was tortured, she was indomitable, not only gave birth to a son-in-law, but also raised her son in such a bad situation. And the emperor is so biased towards the prince that he would rather make a holy decree than let his wife be corrected as a concubine.
"Since this matter was designed by her, my father never found out, and now why do you want to betray your wife and tell the truth?" Fang Xiaoyu raised his eyebrows, but he already had some clues in his heart.
Song Lu lowered her head, with a hint of sadness on her face, and said, "It was the lady who asked the slave to do this." ”
"Li Suqing? Now that she has been seriously stabbed and unconscious, could she have arranged for you to do such a thing in advance before the prophet was told? Fang Xiaoyu seemed to have asked the point.
Song Lu shook her head and said, "All of them are to leave a way back for the young master and young lady." ”
"Madame always says that being a pawn is involuntarily, and Madame doesn't want the young master and young lady to end up like her, so she stabs herself and wants to make a deal with the princess."
"Madame just wanted to stab herself and involve the princess. Madame believed that with the acumen of the princess, she would be able to spot the hints she had left at the scene. And the life and death of the lady depends entirely on whether the princess is willing to make this deal with the lady. If the princess answers, the lady will never wake up again, and if the princess should not, the lady will only be slightly injured and find another way. ”
"But the lady is so seriously injured that the slave is really puzzled."
Saying that, Song Lu continued: "Before Mrs. was about to do anything, she dismissed all the maids and daughters in the courtyard, and wrote a handwritten letter to the slave maid, asking the slave and maid to meet the conditions of the lady in the world, and after the lady died, she handed over the letter to the prince. The letter wrote the truth about the princess's affair back then, which was regarded as a great gift to the prince and the princess. ”
"You said your lady left a hint at the scene?" Fang Xiaoyu frowned.
She investigated the scene and did not find any relevant hints, but the murderer's arrangement was full of loopholes.
What Song Lu said was the same as she guessed, but if this was the case, it was no wonder that she always felt that something was missing from the scene. (To be continued.) )
