The maid was frightened by Wang Caidan's eyes.

The county lord has always been kind to people, and he has never been so harsh, and his gloomy and fierce appearance at this time is very much like the prince of the world.

The maid stabilized her mind and went through the words she heard in her heart again, and she replied without mistakes.

"I heard that now it has spread outside, and the officials implicated in the rebellion case have been dealt with, or exiled or cut officials, but the Liao family in Linzhou has not only not been implicated, but has also been promoted and made a fortune. Mr. Liao's grandfather was originally imprisoned in the Linzhou Prefecture Prison, but now he has not only been released, but also received a reward of 100 acres of fertile land. Mr. Liao's father was promoted to two levels and transferred to the military department as the left squire, and became a Beijing official. ”

Wang Caidan's face was gloomy.

It was Liao Yuansi who betrayed the Wang family!

Yes, he went to his eldest brother's study that day and happened to meet Liao Yuansi. The eldest brother was quite happy at that time and said that the Wang family was saved. Presumably at that time, Liao Yuansi set a trap, and the eldest brother trusted him, so he jumped in without hesitation!

Wang Caidan didn't speak, but the mourning hall was so big, and someone soon discovered her strangeness.

"Danyang, what's wrong?"

The one who asked was Wang Pu, the second son of the Wang family, and the second son of Shu.

He is different from Wang Mao's tall, thin and gloomy, with fine skin and tender flesh, and flirtatious eyes, just like his aunt who was born in a play.

Although Wang Pu has the identity of a brother, he is quite cautious in his words, after all, Wang Caidan's daughter, and the title of the county lord, is naturally higher than him. What's more, the Queen Mother has always wanted her to be the crown princess, and her future status can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person. Their Wang family will depend on her to survive in the future.

Wang Caidan didn't think he was caring for his sister, but he was just here to find out the news, and more importantly, he wanted to show his identity as the future head of the Wang family, right?

's father only has one eldest brother-in-law, his father and eldest brother have passed away, and the other younger brothers are still underage, and the only one who inherits the title is the second son Wang Pu.

It was only half a day's work to get out of prison, and he commanded this and that, and he was arrogant, and he was everywhere.

When the eldest brother was here, he didn't even dare to say a word out loud!

Wang Caidan didn't even raise his head, but said in a light tone, "Second brother, let's keep a good watch." ”

Wang Pu was quite dissatisfied with her coldness, and now that the emperor let them out of prison, it must have been the queen mother who kept them. As long as the title of Duke of Zhenguo is still there, it will definitely be inherited by him. If it is really calculated, he, the prince of the country, is not much worse than Wang Caidan, the county lord, is she still the same as before?

Wang Pu said earnestly, "We are brothers and sisters, sharing weal and woe, what can't we say?" Don't worry, no matter what, the second brother will make the decision for you. ”

Wang Caidan looked at him coldly, "You make the decision for me?" Why do you rule for me? ”

Wang Pu secretly gritted his teeth, naturally with my identity as the future head of the Wang family!

But Wang Caidan still has the identity of the future crown princess, and he doesn't dare to offend easily, so he has to coax him. Seeing that she never gave a good face and ignored her, Wang Pu returned to his seat and continued to guard the spirit.

Seeing that Wang Caidan was in a bad mood and refused to give face, others also stopped coming forward to comfort them, and they all lowered their eyebrows or cried or were silent, each with their own concerns.

In today's Guogong Mansion, the only one they can really rely on is Wang Caidan. If you want to find a good future for yourself, you have to find ways to coax her in the future.

In the entire mourning hall, there is no distraction and crying, and now I am afraid that there is only one Duchess of Zhenguo. She was lying next to the coffin, her husband on one side, and her son on the other hand, who had worked hard to raise her, and half of her life's reliance and pride were dead.

Wang Caidan was still immersed in anger towards Liao Yuansi, so he listened to the voice of the steward outside, "Mr. Liao." ”

Then came Liao Yuansi's cool voice, "I'm here to bid farewell to the prince of Zhenguo and the prince." ”

"Yes." The steward responded respectfully, and his tone was very respectful, even with a stammer.

Wang Caidan suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the door.

As the door curtain opened, Liao Yuansi walked in.

He was wearing a moon-white straight embellished, elegant and elegant, and the gentleman's jade tree was in the wind. Without squinting, he walked straight to the coffin and saluted.

Wang Caidan slammed up and rushed forward, pushing him over the shoulder.

Liao Yuansi was defenseless, and his body staggered back.

He stood firm, his face did not change, and he didn't seem surprised by Wang Caidan's strange appearance, only his voice was like a cool and cold jade, and he said, "The county lord mourns." ”

"Don't be pretending!"

Wang Caidan looked at him coldly and said sharply, "The Zhenguo Mansion actually raised a poisonous snake, and one was bitten if he was not prepared!" ”

Liao Yuansi unhurriedly straightened his robe, and said lightly, "I know that the county lord has something to ask, so why don't you take a step to speak." ”

Wang Caidan did have a lot to ask him.

She turned around and walked out of the mourning hall, went to the warm pavilion that she entered at the back, and let the maid guard outside the door.

She stood in the center of the warm pavilion and stared at Liao Yuansi, who followed up, "The eldest brother was arrested and put in prison by the Criminal Department that day, did you design it?" ”

Liao Yuansi said, "Yes." ”

Wang Caidan said angrily, "You don't hide it!" In vain, I still treat you as a gentleman, and you act so despicably! ”

Liao Yuansi's eyebrows were indifferent, and he looked at her quietly, "The emperor has made up his mind to put the Wang family to death, and what he lacks is real evidence." Even if I don't do it, someone else will do it. ”

"Sophistry! If someone else does it, how can the eldest brother trust him! Wang Caidan reached out and grabbed Liao Yuansi's clothes, stared at him and said, "If you look at it, I will definitely make you pay." How did your Liao family climb up, I will let you fall down! ”

Liao Yuansi looked down at the slender jade hand in front of him, delicate and white, and he chuckled, "It's the first time that the county lord has been so close to me." ”

Wang Caidan let go of his hand suddenly, and wiped his hand vigorously with a handkerchief, as if it was stained with dirty things.

Liao Yuansi looked at her disgusted look, and the smile in his eyes turned cold, "The county lord let the Liao family fall, and the county lord knows that the Liao family has already fallen hard." Last year, in order to help you embarrass the king, I was not able to try to win the fame, and I missed the champion, and the Liao family also lost a chance to go to the next level. My grandfather was originally too Chang Shaoqing, with four official residences, and he was about to have the opportunity to be promoted to Taichang Qing, but in order to save me from prison for my crimes, he asked to resign and return to his hometown. The Liao family disappeared in an instant. ”

He smiled, "Even so, I have never resented you, and I am willing to be a teacher in the Zhenguo Mansion, just to soften your heart one day." It's a pity that the beauty is hard-hearted, and she hasn't even looked at me squarely. Now that the collapse of the Zhenguo Mansion is inevitable, you may have the Queen Mother to save your life, but I will still be the one you abandoned. In that case, why can't I be selfish and save the Liao clan first? ”

Wang Caidan was speechless for a while.

The Liao family has lost the protection of the official position of Taifu Shaoqing in the past year, and she has become more and more withered, and she knows a little bit. It's just that Liao Yuansi has always been willing, and she didn't think much about it here.

But I heard Liao Yuansi ask, "But I don't know how the county master let the Liao family fall from the high platform?" ”
