Text Chapter 164: Cuckold
Chen Qi can be said to be the person who grew up with Shangguan Chen, so he is very familiar with him, and when he saw him with this expression, he knew that he had been tricked just now, and he agreed too quickly.
It's just that now that he has promised to go out, the eldest husband is hard to chase after him, and now it's too late to regret it, so he can only listen to what Shangguan Chen wants to ask.
"What I'm asking about is nothing else, it's your brother who made a marriage before, but finally withdrew."
Shangguan Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw his expression of killing and killing, and then he said the purpose of his trip.
Hearing that he asked this question, Chen Qi first frowned, and asked with a suspicious expression.
"Why did you think of asking this, it's been several years since this matter, and it has nothing to do with you, so why are you suddenly interested in this matter."
"Who said it has nothing to do with me, it's a big deal! Hurry up and tell me! ”
Shangguan Chen didn't want to explain so much to him, so he hurriedly urged.
But Chen Qi shook his head as if he was determined, with a determined expression on his face, and even a little uncertain.
"If you don't make it clear, I won't say it, believe me, you know less and it might be better for you."
Hearing his words, Shangguan Chen immediately knew that there was really something hidden in that incident back then, after all, if there was nothing, Chen Qi would not have said so.
It's just that he knows that Chen Qi's character is the kind of person who has to break the casserole and ask to the end, if he doesn't give him a clear answer, he will definitely rub on it for a long time.
Now, he can't afford to wait.
So Shangguan Chen had to tell him part of the truth, just because his brother was the one who stood on Shangguan Ling's side, so Shangguan Chen could only say the part that could be said, but he didn't say anything at all.
It's not that he doesn't believe Chen Qi, it's that this matter is too involved, and he doesn't want to ruin Su Muwan's plan because of his quick mouth.
"Okay, okay, I've convinced you, saying that you know everything, but now you don't tell me, you're still as good as you were back then."
"The reason why I want to inquire about this matter has something to do with the woman who almost became your sister-in-law, do you know who she married later?"
Chen Qi shook his head, since his brother divorced the woman back then, in order to take care of his face, the family had never mentioned the woman's affairs at all.
Later, a new sister-in-law came to the house, and this matter was even more hidden, and after a few years, it was almost forgotten by everyone, and no one remembered to inquire about what happened to her.
Seeing that the doubts on his face did not seem to be fake, Shangguan Chen believed that he really didn't know anything about An Qinru.
"She later married Qingcheng Taishou and became the second lady of the family."
When he heard that it was the second lady, the corners of Chen Qi's mouth twitched with disdain, and he spoke.
"A woman like her, she can marry someone like my brother, and when she comes to our house, I'm afraid that my father and mother will give her up, but she has to be unwilling to be lonely and find trouble by herself, which is really harmful to others and herself, is it possible to marry my brother and not compare to her to be someone's concubine!"
Although Chen Qi's words are a little unpleasant, they are all telling the truth, the so-called second lady sounds good, as if she is only one step away from the main house in the mansion, but there are thousands of differences.
After all, the custom of the Dazhou Dynasty is that in addition to the main room in the house, the rest is only the difference between the concubine and the room, and then somehow it sounded good, and there was a second lady's statement, but in the final analysis, it was really just a concubine.
"But she can, she devised a plan to kill the son born to the original spouse of the family, and drove the original spouse crazy, and she is not beautiful to sit in the main room."
Shangguan Chen said these words lightly, but he didn't know how much it caused waves in Chen Qi's heart.
"Thirteen, you didn't lie to me, is this woman so vicious, then fortunately my brother didn't marry her back then, otherwise it would have harmed our family."
Chen Qi is very glad in his heart now, such a vicious woman almost became a member of their Chen Mansion, and fortunately it was discovered in time, otherwise they would have married into their family smoothly, and they would have been unable to talk about their suffering.
Shangguan Chen nodded, and Zhengse said.
"How could I lie to you, speaking of which, this is still related to my imperial sister-in-law, she went on a long trip a few days ago, met this original partner in Dingzhou, heard her life experience, and pitied her very much, and was asked by her to ask what kind of person this An Qinru is, and what kind of things did she do back then?"
Seeing that Chen Qi still looked the same, Shangguan Chen threw out another shocking news.
"The former wife of Qingcheng Taishou suspected that An Qinru was pregnant when she married into their family."
"Pregnant!"
Chen Qi was frightened by this news, his eyes widened unconsciously, and his face was full of disbelief.
Seeing Shangguan Chen nodded, he was even more panicked, biting his lower lip, his eyes were constantly flashing, as if he was hesitating about something.
"Could it be that this child is your brother?"
Shangguan Chen asked tentatively.
"How is that possible! My brother is the most polite, how could he do such a thing that is inferior to a beast, it must be that man's, it must be the man my mother and sister saw back then! ”
Chen Qi saw that Shangguan Chen had pulled on Chen Shu's body, and immediately shouted like a blow up, and kept chanting words in his mouth.
"Oh, that man, who the hell is that man?"
Shangguan Chen pressed on the side step by step, and he had to break the casserole and ask to the end to see if this man was the person Su Muwan said.
"He, he ......"
Chen Qi opened his mouth and looked up at Shangguan Chen's appearance, his mouth seemed to be glued with paste, and it was difficult to say anything.
"Say it, as long as you say I'll believe you."
Shangguan Chen looked at Chen Qi with a firm gaze, silently conveying his trust to him.
"He, he's the Great Prince!"
"Back then, my mother and my sister wanted to buy some jewelry for Anqinru, so they went to a jewelry shop, what is it called, what is Jade Butterfly Xuan."
"Wait, you're talking about Jade Butterfly Xuan?"
Shangguan Chen keenly caught this name, immediately frowned, and asked again in order to confirm that it was the store he knew.
Seeing him ask about such a trivial matter, Chen Qi thought about it again, confirmed that he was not mistaken, and then continued.
"That's right, it's Jade Butterfly Xuan, my sister said that there are two floors there, and the second floor doesn't seem to be open to ordinary people."
"My sister has sharp eyes, and from downstairs I saw the eldest prince holding An Qinru's shoulders into a room on the second floor, and then my mother and the two of them deliberately parked the carriage outside the building in order to catch this pair, and waited for an afternoon before An Qinru came out."
Seeing that he was so sure, he didn't need to listen any further, Shangguan Chen could confirm that this matter was really as Su Muwan suspected.
The adulterer who An Qinru went out for a private meeting back then was the eldest prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, his eldest royal brother - Shangguan Qian!
Why is Shangguan Chen so sure, because that Jade Butterfly Xuan is the property of the precious concubine, and it was later given to Shangguan Qian as his private property, and the second floor is only open to him and his own people.
Shangguan Chen here has been confirmed, but Chen Qi over there is still talking about the things he knew back then.
"My mother said that when Anqinru came out of the jewelry shop, she was ...... At that time, the hair bun was scattered, and the clothes were a little messy...... Still leaning on the eldest prince"
Speaking of this, Chen Qi's face was a little red, and he looked very ashamed to speak.
At this time, Shangguan Chen understood why Chen's mother insisted on it back then, and her attitude was very tough to break off the relationship with the An family, presumably because she saw it with her own eyes and knew that An Qinru had already had a relationship with the eldest prince.
His son Chen Shuke is her pride, how can she tolerate her son being put on a green hat at a young age, even if that man is the eldest prince, he can't!
"Then why didn't this matter involve my imperial brother when it spread?"
People say that they catch rapists in pairs, but why in the end it was only rumored that An Qinru had seen a foreign man in private, but it was not revealed who the man was, Shangguan Chen was very puzzled.
Chen Shu heard this and snorted coldly.
"Thirteen, think about it, my brother just got the top prize back then, and he didn't have any connections in the court, so he was alone, how dare he offend the eldest prince, if he retaliates at that time, my brother has studied hard for so many years, wouldn't it all be in vain."
"My mother was going to grab the eldest prince's clothes and start shouting for someone to come and see, but my sister knew that there was a lot to do with it, so she broke my mother's hand and told the eldest prince to take the opportunity to run away."
So it turned out that the reason why Shangguan Qian escaped this catastrophe at that time was thanks to Chen Qi's sister.
It was also her thoughtfulness, Shangguan Chen knew that if the matter was really exposed at that time, the final result could only be that An Qinru was rewarded to Shangguan Qian as a side concubine, or even just a concubine.
And in order to appease the face of the Chen family, the father and emperor will only give something to compensate for it, or simply raise Chen Shu's official position a little higher, and tell him and his family to shut up in disguise, and stop talking about this matter, so as not to insult the reputation of the royal family.
According to Shangguan Qian's temperament, he will inevitably make some stumbling blocks for Chen Shu in the officialdom, or frame him casually, anyway, he will definitely take revenge on him and his family.
So now that the Chen family is living so well, it is really thanks to Chen Qi's sister back then, who thought about it a little more and let Shangguan Qian go.
"Your sister is a smart person, but why have I never seen her for so many years?"
Speaking of Chen Qi's sister, Shangguan Chen found out that his sister had never appeared in other people's mouths and had never shown up.
