Shi Jiao looked at his old wife, turned into ashes with anger, and weakly threw down the long stick in his hand, his body became more and more old, and sighed: "You, you! What a loving mother and a defeated child! It's just a mess on weekdays, but now he actually uses Guozuo as a child's play and causes this catastrophe, but how can it end? ”

Mrs. Shi knew that this disaster was not small, so she gritted her teeth and jumped up, raised her hand and split a palm, slapped her daughter-in-law in the face loudly, and scolded angrily: "You slut! Knowing that Guan Ji was carrying this rebellious seed in her belly, why did she still run to Mrs. Tai to sell her beyond? It's good to give people such a big handle without dying, this is a capital crime that is full of beheadings, don't you understand? ”

Grandma Shi Shao covered her face and was immediately stunned. Since marrying into Shifu, her in-laws have been kind to her, and her subordinates have been respectful to her. Immediately unconvinced, he replied:

"Mother taught me. But my daughter-in-law is also doing this for the sake of our family! The father-in-law has been the secretary of state for many years, and he has offended many people, especially the sons and clansmen of the clan. If the king has no children, how can other sons reuse their fathers in the future? If the son of Guan Ji can be established as the son of the world this time, it will be my Shi family who will sit on the throne of the country, and Yu Gong's father and Yu Shi will have great benefits! ”

Hearing this, Shi Jiao couldn't help but sigh slightly, this daughter-in-law looked okay, but she didn't expect her mind to be so crooked, and she was stupid. Thinking that he Shijiao has been shrewd all his life, how can there be such a gullible and arrogant fool in the house?

Seeing that her father-in-law was silent, Grandma Shi thought that she had hit the point, so she climbed a few steps and said softly: "Although there are some rumors outside this matter, as long as your father-in-law bites you to death, Guan Ji will not let go, and the king is on the rise, so they don't dare to talk nonsense!" Let's do it hard, and after that, the Shi family will really want to win the wind and rain in the defense of the country! ”

Shi Jiao waved his sleeves impatiently: "That's it, the thousands of miles of river embankment are destroyed in the anthill, and the governance of the family is important to the children and grandchildren, and it must be in the family." His tone became more and more desolate: "You husband and wife only see the word 'profit' in their eyes, but they don't know the danger in it. That lady has always been eyeing the throne, and if she holds this handle, how can she give up easily? Alas! Foolish people can't talk anymore, go down! ”

The old wife was about to cross the threshold, but she turned her head uncomfortably and asked softly, "This matter, really can't be good?" ”

"Can't!" Shi Jiao's ears suddenly echoed the words of Mrs. Tai today: "Doctor Shi, this matter can no longer be covered. Whether to keep your Shi family rich or secure, you should make a choice! ”

"Master------" Mrs. Shi stopped talking.

"If you have anything to say, just say it! At this point, what else can't be said? Shi Jiao said weakly.

Mrs. Shi bit her lip and said straightly, "That concubine will tremble." Now the hearts of the people of the patriotic country belong to Gongzi He, and the master alone is also difficult to support. Now that this incident has happened again, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for the king to trust you, so it is better to simply take refuge in Mrs. Tai and Gongzi, and you can also keep the family safe, right? ”

After speaking, she looked at her husband with some weakness, but Shi Jiao was not angry, but just smiled bitterly: "It's late!" If you follow your words, Mrs. Tai will definitely push the dirty work of killing the monarch to the old man's hands, and then my Shi family will be the real absolute worship! Alas! It's a dead end! ”

Midsummer has passed, the weather is gradually cooling, the sky is blue and the water is blue, the black magpie flies south, the palace is full of yellow flowers piled up, and the red is innumerable, adding a bit of autumn. In the blink of an eye, Guan Ji's son should also have a full moon. The entire Wei Guo knew that Wei Boyu was about to officially crown this newborn as the son of the world at the full moon banquet.

On the day of the banquet, Mrs. Yi deliberately got up early in the morning, and she went through today's procedures in her mind, and after making sure that there was no mistake in any link, she let the maid dress up for herself. Although she is already a person who has come over in the wind and waves, she is inevitably nervous and excited when the paving has finally reached the final closing season after such a long time.

Although it was a big day to edict the prince, Wei Boyu felt sorry for Guan Ji and didn't want to make the scene too tiring her, so the only courtiers invited were a few people who were the lord's doctor, and in addition to that, the clan relatives surnamed Ji Wei and the family members of the harem.

Men and women are seated separately, with a curtain in between. Mrs. Qi came to the women's banquet, but saw that all the female concubines had surrounded Guan Ji's mother and son in three layers and flattered them non-stop. The baby who has just been full moon is white and round, and his cry is loud, and people look at him to attract people's likeness, and after touching it twice, the little person will actually be angry, staring at people with big eyes, full of vitality, and Mrs. Ji can't help but hug and hug.

Guan Ji's face was white and tender, but her expression was quite haggard, as if she was still in a trance, and she looked very weak. Madame Fu comforted her insincerely, and walked up the steps of the main hall. On the stone steps, in the middle is Wei Boyu's main seat, and then there are two small cases on the left and right. Behind the case on the right, Gong Shuhua was already sitting in a precarious position. The reason why he was able to sit there was precisely because Ji Hua was the only brother of the Marquis of Xian, and his bloodline was close and noble, and he had a high prestige among the Wei clan.

Mrs. Qi greeted her uncle Hua, and was just about to sit down, when she heard a long call from the eunuch: "The lord has arrived-"

Except for Mrs. Tai and Uncle Gong, the participants all echoed on the ground: "Please be safe!" ”

Wei Boyu took a few steps, and was the first to pick up Guan Ji and lead her to sit behind the case. The feast begins—

Thirty-six years old is already considered a middle-aged child, Wei Boyu is really happy, holding his son who has just reached the full moon in his arms, and his ears are the constant flattery of the courtiers and clansmen, and he has drunk a lot of wine unconsciously. He was so happy that he didn't even notice that Shi Jiao didn't come to the banquet.

"Everyone-" Wei Boyu put down the wine in his hand, cleared his throat and said: "Today is the gift of the full moon of children, and my Wei clan temple has finally been inherited, and the widow is worthy of the ancestors of heaven and earth." On this good day, the widow has an edict to announce! ”

The celebrant unfolded the silk edict that had been prepared long ago and was about to read it, when suddenly everyone's eyes turned to the outside of the hall, and the air seemed to freeze. Mrs. Qi's gaze swept forward, and the corners of her lips narrowed slightly.

At the end of her line of sight, Mrs. Weber's wife, Zhongzi, who was low-eyebrowed, was dressed in a dark thin shirt, with her hair draped and stomping her feet, and the moment she went up to the temple, she quickly brushed the black veil that hung down to the side of her face to the back of her head. His face was pale, but his eyes were dull. After secretly meeting with Mrs. Qi's gaze, he stepped forward more resolutely.

Wei Boyu was quite displeased, and rebuked in a low voice but full of disgust: "Today is the day of the full moon of the prince, who are you dressed like this to show it?" ”

Zhongzi didn't seem to hear it at all, and the long skirt was lightly swinging, and he slowly walked to the brocade carpet in the hall and bowed down. There was silence in the hall, and everyone couldn't help but stop and look at her with wide eyes. Even Uncle Hua, who has always been unsmiling, couldn't help but put down the bronze jue in his hand, and asked with a little surprise: "Today is the day of great joy for me to establish an heir to the David Society, even if you are dissatisfied, you have to look at the face of your ancestors, why is this so?" ”

"It is for the sake of my patriotic society not to fall into the hands of adulteresses, and for the purity of my office's bloodline, that the concubine has the courage to speak out." Zhong Zi's eyes showed a resolute meaning, took a deep breath, and raised his chin: "The concubine just wants to expose Guan Ji's great rebellion in front of all the relatives and nobles. ”

"What are you talking about?" Wei Boyu angrily threw the wine jue in his hand on the stone steps, making a crisp sound of "dangchang". Guan Ji's face was like ashes, and Mrs. Ji took this opportunity to ask the grandmother next to her to pick up the baby and coax her.

Wei Boyu's anger made Zhongzi grit his teeth, the cowardice in his chest disappeared, and his voice became clearer: "Guan Ji is not Yao's mother who has been pregnant for longer than ordinary people, she gave birth at term, and this child was actually conceived in the two months when Jun went to Haojing." It's really the evil seed born of her fornication with the heir of the Shi family! ”

With just one sentence, the entire hall exploded in an instant like boiling oil being poured with a spoonful of cold water. Wei Boyu's face also changed, and he raised a trembling hand and pointed at Zhongzi and said angrily: "You ------ you ------ talking nonsense!" Come, drag this jealous woman down to the widow! ”

"Wait!" Mrs. Qi's clear voice stopped, and she turned to Uncle Hua and said: "Uncle, look at the words of the Zi family, not to mention that Guan Ji's fetus is indeed from outside the palace, and there are doubts, it is better to make it clear." After all, it is not trivial to inherit the Wei bloodline! ”

Uncle Hua stroked his beard and said slowly: "Sister-in-law is reasonable, please don't be impatient!" He turned to Zhongzi: "Since you are the leader, you must have evidence, why don't you present it in public, and use it to everyone, how about it?" ”

"The concubine has a certificate!" Zhongzi kowtowed and said, "The young lady of the Shi family, the maid lotus, can be witnessed!" ”

The lotus flower was already waiting outside the hall, and at this time, Zhongzi's maid was introduced into the main hall. Because it was the first time I saw such a scene, I was so frightened that I didn't dare to raise my head, and I trembled when I spoke: "I ------ my young master to be lustful, and the whole Chao Song City knows it." The old man knew the young master's virtue, and deliberately placed Guan Ji in a side courtyard and did not allow others to enter or leave. But ------ according to the young master's temperament, how dare he give up? We slaves don't dare to scold our masters, while the master is not at home, the young master will slip to the side courtyard as soon as he is free, and he will come out in two or three hours------"

Her voice was very soft, but it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, smashing the rest of Wei Bo's face like a tree. Guan Ji looked flustered, grabbed his sleeve desperately, and begged in a mournful voice: "No, Your Majesty, it's not like this. It must be her ------" She pointed at Zhongzi: "She was jealous of her concubine's favor and had a son, and she bought the maid of the Shi family to slander me." This child is the blood of the king, and the 'Yaomu Palace' mentioned by the king himself, have you forgotten? ”
