"I have something for you to do now, send a few people out to secretly investigate the Rakshasa Hall, and see if you can find out who paid so much for my life."

Hearing Qu Huashang's words, the members of the first squad of black chess were a little stunned, and they were naturally very clear about the rules of the Rakshasa Hall.

That is, no matter how much money or power there is, it is impossible for the Rakshasa Hall to betray its employer.

Can... This is what their eldest lady ordered.

seemed to be aware of the hesitation of the team members below, and Qu Huashang added a few more words.

"I know the rules of the Rakshasa Hall, just do your best, don't say anything that only succeeds and doesn't fail."

Qu Huashang's words were like a reassurance, and the team members who were hesitant just now no longer hesitated when they heard this.

A few people left, and a few others were still kneeling here.

Qu Huashang sat on the main seat, looking at the neat people kneeling below, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Rakshasa Hall...... Oh, it's interesting, it's really interesting to buy a murderer who killed me......"

At this time, Yuwenyi and Lin still have Qu Worry, the three of them are staring at each other, they are embarrassed by each other, and the atmosphere is also very delicate, no one spoke first, it seems that they are waiting for the other party to break.

After all, what Xu said just now made Yuwenyi not react until now.

At this embarrassing time, Xu suddenly sneezed coldly.

Although this sneeze came out of place, it also relieved the awkward atmosphere.

Qu Youlian heard Xu's sneeze and looked over with some concern.

"Mother is fine, isn't it cold? Do I need to find a doctor? ”

Mother????

Hearing Qu Yulian's name to Xu, Yu Wenyi felt even more that he was dreaming.

Yu Wenyi hurriedly took another sip of herbal tea, forcibly calmed his mind, and began to figure out the relationship between these two people.

If his impression is not wrong, Qu Youlian should be the second daughter of the capable general Qu Lao on the battlefield, and the second daughter of a general's family.

Xu should be the wife of Lord Lin, the prime minister of the imperial court, and a civil official.

How can the affairs of civil officials and military attaches be mixed together? And also a mother and daughter?

Wrong...

Yu Wenyi suddenly thought of something.

He didn't remember who he heard before, Qu Youlian was not the daughter of his wife, and it seemed that Qu Youlian's biological mother was a maid of the Qu family, and it took extremely disgraceful means to be able to conceive the child of General Qu.

General Qu seemed to be very angry about this matter, and he also heard that after Qu was born, her biological mother was expelled.

If what that person's broken mouth said was true, it was very likely that Qu Sorrow's biological mother, who was expelled from the mansion at that time, was attached to Lord Lin.

If that's the case, you can figure it out.

Yuwen Yi clarified these relationships, and his expression eased a little, after all, when he didn't know anything, it was really appalling to see those two people behaving like that.

As if to explain the relationship between the two people and why the two of them appeared here at the same time, Xu stood up and bowed to Yuwen Yi respectfully.

"As His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has seen, the second lady of the Qu family is my daughter, and I am the biological mother of Li'er."

"Li'er has admired His Royal Highness the Crown Prince since she was a child, which is something that I see and remember as a mother."

"As a mother, I didn't do my duty to raise Pian Er to adulthood, I feel guilty, and I have been thinking about making up for it and giving Pian Er something."

Hearing Xu's words, Yu Wenyi frowned with some displeasure.

Why is it so stinging to listen to Xu's words?

The relationship between them, what mother-daughter relationship, what strange relationship between civilian and military officials, this is something he doesn't want to interfere with, and it is also something he doesn't want to know about and is not interested in.

Mother and daughter are mother and daughter, and if the mother does not fulfill her duties, she does not fulfill her duties, so what does it have to do with herself?

These two people swaggered to their own mansion, and they told themselves all this, what does it have to do with themselves?

And which family's daughter is so shameless, just say it herself, and let her mother tell her inner admiration?

Besides, if you really love him, how could you do such a degrading thing at the ceremony? looked like he was in harmony with his subordinates, but he looked at it squarely.

It's a little disgusting to be loved by such a woman.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince after all, so even if he feels disgusting in his heart, he has not surfaced.

Yu Wenyi still pretended to be as warm as jade, looking at the mother and daughter.

"Then I don't know what the agreement Mrs. Xu just said is? Can you elaborate on that? ”

"It's very simple, my daughter has had such a wish since she was a child, that is, she wants to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince whom she loves in her heart, I, as a mother, have already done a very disqualified, I can't even help my daughter's only hope."

"So, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince marry my family's li'er?"

Yu Wenyi heard Xu's statement that he wanted to marry Qu Weilian, although he wanted to refuse directly.

But he always felt that Xu Shi had something to say next, and this would be a very important thing for him, so he swallowed back the rejection that had already sprung up in his heart, and then looked at Xu Shi.

Sure enough, Xu Shi paused, as if he had made up his mind, and looked at Yu Wenyi.

"Although I am a woman's family, I also know a little about the affairs of the court, if I understand correctly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should have some very troublesome things now..."

"For example... Willing to attach himself to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

The Xu family is indeed a scheming person, otherwise it would not have been possible to win from a Qinglou woman to the Lin Mansion at that time, and it would not have been possible to become the current housewife from a small concubine.

Her scheming is not only reflected in the struggle for power and hegemony in the backyard, but also has a very good understanding of the affairs in the court, after all, the affairs of the backyard and the vestibule can never be separated.

She brought her daughter here today to rashly make such an rude request to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which seemed very rampant and reckless on the surface, but in fact it was not.

This is something she decided on after a long and careful planning.

At this time, the situation in the court is unpredictable, it can be said that there is a three-legged state, and the current voice of support for His Royal Highness the King of Anding seems to be the most.

So His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at this time should have trouble sleeping all day long, and he wants to win over more gangs.

Of course, there are many big families who have not yet stood in line at this time, such as Qu Mansion and Lin Mansion.

Probably because of the successive wars, the status of military attachés above the court is greater than that of civilian officials.

Lord Kelin is indeed a capable person who manages the country's governance, and he has his own unique opinions.

That's why he was able to break out of his own world in such a martial arts country, was valued by the emperor, and became the prime minister, followed by many followers.

Although the status of the Lin family is not as good as that of the Qu family, its influence above the court cannot be underestimated.

Presumably, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at this time is in urgent need of the strength of a big family like the Lin family.

That's why the Xu family was so unscrupulous, swaggering into the prince's mansion with Qu Sorrow, and directly redeemed it.

After Yu Wenyi heard Xu's words, his face unconsciously became a little serious.

He looked outside, made sure there was no one, twisted a mechanism on the table, and opened a cellar with a rumble on the floor.

Then he stood at the mouth of the cellar and made a gesture to the two men.

"Mrs. Xu, there are some things that are inconvenient to discuss in detail outside, so it's better to talk about them carefully."

Seeing Yu Wenyi's reaction, the victory on the corner of Xu's mouth was a little more, and she patted Qu Sad's hand with relief, signaling her not to worry about whether this matter could be successful.

Then the mother and daughter followed Yu Wenyi hand in hand and entered the cellar.

After the three of them entered, the door to the entrance of the cellar was slammed shut again.

It's a mysterious place.

This cellar is not big, but it is not small, it is the size of a study in an ordinary person's house, but the things here are very complete, and there should be no less documents and seats, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not said anything important here.

After Yu Wenyi brought the two of them in, he let the two of them sit down before he looked at Xu with burning eyes.

"What Mrs. Xu just said, can you be more specific?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also a smart person, and there are some things that I can understand without me saying it explicitly, but since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to listen to the details, then I will say it again in detail."

"Although I am a woman, because of the father-in-law, I also have some understanding of the affairs of the court, and I know that the emperor seems to be a little powerless at this time, and he is looking for a suitable candidate for the prince."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the eldest son born to the queen, and he is dignified and well-read, so he should be the best candidate to obtain this prince, but..."

Xu Shi deliberately paused when he said this, satisfying people's appetites.

"But what?"

"But I've heard that in addition to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there are other candidates for the crown prince, such as... His Royal Highness the King of Beiping, the younger brother of the current emperor, or His Royal Highness the King of Anding, who once went on the expedition with His Royal Highness the King of Beiping and won outstanding achievements. ”

Hearing this, even if his expression could be maintained well, Yu Wenyi's face still stiffened unconsciously.

But apparently the Xu family did not stop saying her words because of the face of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Needless to say, His Royal Highness the King of Beiping was the one who was able to compete for power with the current Shengshang, if it weren't for the fact that His Royal Highness the King of Beiping had no intention of taking the throne and was still young, it would be impossible to say who would be the emperor now."

"The most important thing is this His Royal Highness the King of Anding, if the news I found is correct, most of the people are now supporting His Royal Highness the King of Anding, His Royal Highness the King of Anding is a rare genius of both civil and military affairs, and his triumphant return from the expedition has undoubtedly added a big plus point to him, not to mention that His Royal Highness the King of Anding, even if he returns to the court, is also an official who is sympathetic to the people, and he has the style of governing the world."

As Xu's words here became more and more exaggerated, and what he said became more and more vivid, Yu Wenyi's face became more and more heavy, more and more heavy, and the black seemed to be able to drip out of ink.

It's okay if what Mrs. Xu said is false, and she won't have such a big reaction, but what Mrs. Xu said is all true.

Now it is said that it is a three-legged stand, but in fact, Yu Wenyi knows very well in his heart that his eighth brother is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

In addition, the King of Beiping has always been close to the King of Anding, and the King of Beiping did not seem to have any plans for the throne before, and maybe he still has no plans now.

It is very likely that the king of Beiping will do his best to help his eighth brother, and then the situation will be even more unfavorable to him, and it may be impossible to turn the tables.

So now the panic in Yu Wenyi's heart, he is also very clear.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible to bring these two women so easily to their own cellar to discuss important matters of the court.

This should be the so-called rushing to the doctor, but it seems that the word indiscriminate treatment is not exact, and Xu's behind him represents more than just Xu.

Although I don't know how the woman Xu did it, it is true that Lord Lin is obedient to his wife.

If the Xu family supports him, presumably Lord Lin will also support him, and those small and medium-sized families who follow Lord Lin will also come to support him.

At that time, it was a great boost to myself.

Although the Lin family's power is not as good as that of the Qu family, it is not bad.

Although he was very disgusted with Qu Sorrow, especially on the day of the ceremony, he saw that Qu Sorrow had something like that with his subordinates, and he didn't have the slightest good impression of this woman.

Besides, he has never put a concubine in his heart, how can a mere concubine be able to make him pay attention to it? Not to mention the unfavored concubine Qu Sorrow, even her sister Qu Huashang, the concubine of the Qu family, is not taken seriously by him.

Now I am kind to those women, but I just have a picture for them.

He has always believed that women can only be vassals of power, not people who control power.

He still loves the beauty and the country more.

Of course, he could only think about these things in his heart, but he didn't show them on his face.

If it were normal, he would definitely refuse directly, after all, he was just a lady, and she was also an innocent woman, marrying such a woman into his prince's mansion, wouldn't it be a joke, making people laugh at themselves all day long.

But this is not an ordinary time, and the key is that the support of these forces is urgently needed.

This Xu is also a scheming person, but he knows what he urgently needs, so he uses this and himself as a threat.

But I can't refuse.

Yu Wenyi hesitated for a long time, but finally made up his mind.

What about including this woman in the house? It's just that there is one more woman in the house, and she can bring it to herself when the time comes, but the entire Lin family still has the support of those small and medium-sized forces that are attached to the Lin family.

If you really do this, it will not be a loss for yourself, but it may be a little damaged in terms of reputation.

After all, the second lady of the Qu family is now a well-known big man in the capital, and everyone knows about it, and every household is rumored about her vulgar things.

At that time, there were so many guests attending the ceremony, even if they had the heart to stop these people's mouths, they would not be able to stop them.

So now this second miss Qu can be said to have a bad reputation, even if she is a concubine in the mansion, I am afraid that it will make people laugh.

But... Compared to the support of those families, what is this?

"If you want me to marry the second miss of the Qu family, naturally there is no problem, the second miss of the Qu family gave birth to a sinking fish and a goose, soft as a boneless, and gave birth to an excellent skin, which naturally makes thousands of men admire, of course, this also includes me."

"But it's okay to ask for a marriage, but... But she can't be a wife......"

Hearing Yu Wenyi's words, Xu Shi looked a little displeased.

But just as Xu was about to say something, Qu Yulian stood up and stopped his mother.

"Mother, don't tell the prince's brother again."

"If Li'er can marry the prince's brother, whether it is a main wife, a side wife, or can only be a concubine, Li'er is willing to be full of joy."

"And the position of the wife is indeed not suitable for me, the prince's brother is the current prince, the future prince, the future emperor, is the dragon and phoenix among such people."

"Li'er knows that she doesn't have the blessing of becoming the future queen, so she doesn't ask for too much luxury, and she is already very content to be able to be by the prince's brother's side."

Qu is worried and pitiful, this person has always been a lie, but what she said at this moment is all her sincerity.

There is a big element in saying this, because what happened at the ceremony, whether it was framed by someone or wishful thinking for a while, those things no matter how you explain them, are of no avail, after all, what should have happened has already happened.

She is already an unscrupulous woman, and this matter is already widely spread by those young ladies in the capital.

How could a body like her, which was already dirty, dare to ask for the position of queen?

Besides, this is this kind of thing, if it didn't come out of this file, I'm afraid she wouldn't dare to ask for that kind of glory.
