Chapter 169: Demotion to the Lord
When Wei Mu heard this, her brain exploded with a "buzz".
“…… Wei's Li Niang, who helped her father commit murder, ordered Li Mu to accompany her to kill the family of the court officials; On July 26 of the year of Xinwei, Zhao Jingli, one of his twin sons, was transferred to Zhao Ruxi, the daughter of Zhu Xinyi, and then Zhao Ruxi was transferred to Zhao Ruyu, the daughter of Lin Chunmei, a villager of Xiaorong in Beining, to confuse the blood of the lord, deceive the king, and behead him. ”
The old lady, Zhao Yuanxun and the eldest lady have been laying out the bureau for so long, counting the days, the good news is coming. Therefore, when I heard that an angel was coming to deliver the decree, I guessed the content of the decree. Hearing the fate of Wei Qiu and Wei, it was like drinking ice water on a June day, and I was refreshed from my head to my heart.
But this news is not only for Wei's mother, but also for Zhao Jingli and Zhao Jing'an and other people in the second room.
Zhao Jingli couldn't believe his ears.
How could he, how could he not be the son of his parents, but the son of Zhao Yuanliang and Wei? He and Zhao Jing'an are twins? How is this possible? How is this possible? It must be a mistake, it must be a mistake.
If someone else said this, he would not believe a word. But this is the decree of God......
Zhao Jingli was stunned. He wanted to ask Zhao Yuanxun beside him, but the angel was still reading out the holy decree, and there was silence in the audience, and Zhao Jingli had to endure the question in his heart and didn't dare to speak out.
Zhao Jing'an overheard that his mother was beheaded, and he almost fainted in fright. Wei Mu next to him fainted to the ground, he was unconscious, and the whole person knelt there in a daze, motionless.
Zhao Yuanliang's situation is not much better than Zhao Jing'an.
Although he and Wei have no feelings, they are noisy and noisy all day long, but they are husband and wife, and they are also frightened when they hear that she was beheaded.
His wife, is she so bold? Changed children with my sister-in-law and let my son be the son? No wonder a person who scares all day long is very tolerant and loving to Zhao Jingli, the nephew of the big house, no wonder she is so disgusted with Zhao Ruxi, a child, and has no motherly heart, it turns out that Zhao Jingli is her son, and Zhao Jing'an is a twin? But how come the two children don't look like each other at all?
Also, what does she think of the Hou Mansion? She actually asked the subordinates of the Hou Mansion to do murder. Didn't she know that if this matter was exposed, it would affect her husband and son? In her heart, his husband, her beloved son Zhao Jing'an, compared to the Wei family, what is it?
Not to mention these people who have been kept in the dark, Zhao Ruyu and Xu Xi, who boasted that they knew the future development of the Great Jin and Suiping Marquis Mansion in the next few years, and often saw the world from the perspective of God, were stunned.
Especially Zhao Ruyu, the whole person collapsed.
There was no such thing in the previous life, right? Even if the Wei family had a stroke of anger on the old lady, and the Wei family was not reprimanded by the emperor and the queen mother, even if she killed people for the Wei family and replaced Zhao Ruxi with her own child to seize the position of the prince of the Hou Mansion, it was not exposed in the previous life, how could it suddenly be exposed in this life? The Wei family was raided and exiled, how could such a horrific thing as the beheading of the Wei family happen?
Zhao Ruyu felt that her whole life had collapsed.
The most successful thing she had in her previous life was to marry Fu Yunlang and become Mrs. Pingnanhou. After being reborn, she felt that she was not greedy at all. Even if she knew who the future emperor was, she never thought about marrying that prince as a concubine and enjoying more glory and wealth. She only needs to follow the trajectory of her previous life and be satisfied.
But why is God so short-sighted? Let her be reborn, but it will collapse her happy life? Why is that? Why exactly?
Xu Xi knew well about Wei's exchange of children, but she really didn't expect that Wei's would be so bold and stupid that he would kill people for Wei Qiu and let herself fall into such a situation.
But thinking about it, she understands it again.
All of Wei's reliance comes from his father. As long as her father stands in a high position or even promoted to a higher official, she can show off her power and be arrogant in the Suiping Marquis Mansion, and the thing she did fourteen years ago, even if it is exposed, the consequences will not be too serious - or, it is precisely because she changed her child fourteen years ago that she is uneasy, so she is the murderer for her father to kill him and let him be promoted to protect herself?
Things in the world really have a cause and an effect. The cycle of cause and effect, retribution is unpleasant.
After listening to Wei's fate, she, like the old lady, Zhao Yuanxun and the eldest lady, still looked at the angel and listened carefully.
The Suiping Marquis Mansion was not separated, and Wei, as the second lady of the Hou Mansion, even if what she did harmed the interests of the Hou Mansion and cleared the obstacles to her official position for her own maiden father, it still cannot be denied that it was the people of the Suiping Marquis Mansion who were "beheaded".
Zhao Yuanxun, as the Marquis of Suiping, did not govern his family strictly, so that Liu Chengde's grandson was killed, and he must be punished. If there is no child being replaced, his crime may not be small, although it will not lead to exile, but it is inevitable to be hit with dozens of boards.
If you are another middle-aged man, it is nothing to play dozens of boards, and it is good to raise them for a while. But Zhao Yuanxun's body ......
Therefore, hearing the fate of Wei Qiu and Wei Liniang, although everyone was very happy, their hearts still pinched, worried that the emperor's punishment of Zhao Yuanxun was too strict.
The eunuch who came to announce the decree knew that Wei Qiu's wife had come to the Suiping Marquis Mansion, and what Wei Qiu and Wei did and their fate were closely related to the Suiping Marquis Mansion, so they read out the content of the holy decree with the Suiping Marquis Mansion here.
After reading out the relevant matters of the Wei Mansion, seeing the reaction of the people in the Suiping Marquis Mansion, he paused, and continued: "Suiping Marquis Zhao Yuanxun, the governance of the family is not strict, the younger brother and daughter-in-law made a big mistake, and the people in the mansion do not know about the murder, it should be severely punished, and the actions of the Wei family and the subordinates are all made by Wei Qiu, and have nothing to do with the Marquis of Suiping, and the matter of the prince is the victim, so the Marquis of Suiping is demoted to the first rank, and the lord is changed to the Duke of Suiping, and the post of the Soldiers and Horses of the Five Cities is removed. Zhao Yuanliang, as the husband of the Wei family, did not control his wife, and the rod was thirty. Zhao Jingli was abolished as the prince. Chin this. ”
As soon as the eldest lady heard that she had been demoted, she secretly screamed that it was not good, and hurriedly said to the old lady: "Everyone is safe, this is better than anything else." Mother, think about it, our family is fine. She was really worried that the old lady couldn't stand the stimulation and really had a stroke.
The old lady is old, and her brain is half a beat slow; Although literate, he doesn't read much. She had to think about the edict recited by the eunuch in order to understand its meaning.
Therefore, before she understood Zhao Yuanxun's words of being demoted, she heard her daughter-in-law's words.
It was also Xu Xi who enlightened her before, and the old lady's obsession with glory and wealth is not as strong as before. Hearing her daughter-in-law's words, she was not much stimulated, sighed, and kowtowed to the ground at the signal of the eldest lady: "Long live, long live, long live." ”
The eunuch handed over the holy decree to Zhao Yuanxun and waved his hand: "Take Wei Qiu's wife Yu away." Thirty rods were given to Zhao Yuanliang. ”
