Chapter 81: The Knot Is Unsolvable
Li Yi was taken out of the mansion, and the people in the Chen mansion did not know.
Father Chen rarely stepped into Chen's mother's yard tonight, and the joy on Chen's mother's face couldn't be hidden.
Father Chen has only stayed in the courtyard on major festivals in these years, and at other times he is either at Aunt Han's place or sleeps in the study, without exception.
Maybe he thought it was a respect for his wife, but he didn't know that this highlighted his love for Aunt Han even more.
Today's appearance made everyone who served Chen's mother happy, thinking that this was a sign of the easing of the relationship between the lady and the master, but they didn't know that the conversation between the two of them after they retired the servant was even colder than before.
"Why did you betray me?" Father Chen seemed to be asking about the water cup on the table, and when he said this, he did not look at Mother Chen, but stared at the water cup on the table.
She picked up the glass and held it tightly with both hands.
"I've not been nice enough to you all these years? As long as it's your request, whether it's reasonable or embarrassing for me, what is there that I haven't done? He looked at the hands that had been folded on the glasses, the ones that had been clasped with him, and which he believed would hold the old hand.
"I don't want Yun'er to be sacrificed by your conspiracy!" When she finally spoke, it was her daughter.
"I've never thought of it that way! Yun'er is also my in-law, how could I harm her! ”
"Tiger poison doesn't eat children, that's what I thought at first." Her voice was different from the gentle, cold and terrible of the past.
She didn't want to endure it any longer, so she simply said it clearly today: "You said that you would marry Yun'er to Lin Zehai." I know that with our current identity, it is really reluctant to ask Yun'er to marry Lin Tiankuo. I don't want you to be embarrassed, as long as Yun'er can marry into the royal family, I am already very satisfied. But you told me that you don't just want Yun'er to marry into the royal family, you want her to be the queen, so you have to provoke the relationship between the two Lin Zehai brothers and support Lin Zehai. ”
"I told you all this a long time ago, and you promised it." Chen Han was puzzled.
"Lin Zehai has important things without your help, how can he, a person with no foundation, get past Lin Tiankuo, who was made the crown prince just after birth? Why are you helping Lin Zehai? Because you want to see Qingguo weaken the national strength because of the infighting between the two. ”
Chen Han's eyes looked at the table, he knew that his wife was not stupid, and now he could guess what he wanted to do.
"If you get the edict from me, you will unite with Qingguo to take down Zhou. At the same time, you are deliberately trying to weaken the national strength of Qingguo, don't you just want your Chu State to dominate the world? "She analyzed his plan very thoroughly.
"Chen'er, my plan can't escape your eyes." Since he had already guessed, he simply admitted: "Is there anything in the plan that is not good for Yun'er?"
He slowed down his tone and continued to explain: "You also know that I don't care about the edict, whether you give it to me or King Qing will not have a big impact on the plan. What I care about is that you married Yun'er to Lin Tiankuo privately, I promised to marry Yun'er to him, you did this to make me lose trust in front of him, he is a smart person, it will be difficult to win his trust in the future. ”
"I'm so sorry that for my daughter's sake, I actually affected your plans."
The ridicule in her tone embarrassed him very much, and he forced his dissatisfaction and chose to communicate rationally: "Chen'er, don't talk like this, if you have any dissatisfaction, say it directly." ”
"Good!" She didn't want to hide it today!
"You keep saying that you don't have the intention of harming your daughter, and even after Lin Zehai became the emperor, Yun'er was still the queen. But what about after the state of Chu destroyed the state of Qing? Is there still a way for Lin Zehai to live? What about Yun'er, who is the queen? What about the children she bore? Do you want to be cut down by you, or will you stay incognito for the rest of your life like me? ”
It wasn't until she finished speaking that Chen Han faintly understood her heart knot, and he also wanted to ask clearly: "Isn't it good to be alive?" ”
"It depends on what it costs to live! I could have died proudly, but I chose to live a humble life. ”
"Do you regret it? Was it humbling that you were willing to marry me and have children for me? ”
"I want to leave a bloodline for my father!"
"I see, I was used by you as a tool to give birth to a child. So why do you have three? He asked stubbornly, hoping to get an answer from her that would make him less painful.
"A son can only be your son, and only a daughter can change her fate through marriage!"
It turns out that he is the one who is calculated! He took a huge risk to let go of the princess of Zhou who was forced to commit suicide at that time, and took care of her, lest she be wronged.
She said that her life in Chu was depressing, and he moved her family to Qingguo for her.
She offered to marry her, and he thought she was moved and willing to live an ordinary life with him, and he was ecstatic.
"I understand, my son will always be looked down upon by you, just like me, and only daughters who may marry into the royal family will be valued by you. Is that so? ”
No wonder after giving birth to Yun'er, she no longer allowed herself to touch her. also stuffed herself with an Aunt Han.
He was also angry, so he made the appearance of spoiling Aunt Han, expecting her to be jealous. But she didn't, she even took advantage of Aunt Han's favor, and taught her to install eyeliner in the house to spy on him.
He acquiesced to these, after all, the former proud daughter of the sky was willing to give birth to children for herself, and she was more or less concerned about herself. Even though he didn't know why he was alienated from him, as long as she had him in her heart, he was willing to accommodate.
Who knew that all this was just his wishful thinking!
"I just want my daughter to live a dignified life."
"You think she can only live with dignity if she marries into the royal family, okay! I'll do it for you! You know how hard I put into it to get Lin Zehai to be willing to marry her! Who knew you were tearing down my desk behind my back! Do you think I didn't worry about Yun'er? When the State of Chu takes the Qing State to unify the world, I will naturally arrange to survive with another identity! I've got it all planned! ”
"I've had enough of hiding and hiding! I don't want my daughter to go through this anymore! ”
"Do you know how much your assertiveness affects me? I have lost Lin Zehai's trust, and I can't let him listen to my fight with Lin Tiankuo, will the King of Chu let me go? His methods are ruthless, and our whole family will suffer with him! ”
His tone changed and he said sarcastically: "Oh, I forgot, you don't care if we live or die, you only care about the person who is about to become the crown princess." It turns out that after all these years, I have never really understood you. ”
Chen Han sighed: "Okay, I saved you, you used and betrayed me, for the sake of you giving birth to two sons for me, I don't care anymore." It's just that Yun'er can't marry Lin Tiankuo! ”
"King Qing's decree will be delivered to our house in the next few days, you have no chance."
"I have a chance before the decree comes! You give me the edict, and leave the rest alone. Chen Han got up, he just wanted to take his things and leave here quickly.
"I have already given the edict to Lin Tiankuo."
"Impossible! You have only met Lin Tiankuo once, and that time you just bumped into him by accident, and it is impossible to carry such an important thing with you! Hurry up and give it to me! ”
"I ......"
"Aunt Han, are you too bold? This is Madame's yard, and the lord is here today, do you want to break in? The voice of Chen's mother's personal maid came from outside the courtyard, interrupting the tension between the two.
They knew that if Aunt Han hadn't encountered an emergency, she would never have done such an outrageous thing.
