Chapter 280: The City Lord's Wife

While Du Lanzhen and the three of them were talking about the secular in the study, Yin Ze was in the back garden of the City Lord's Mansion, drenching in a cold sweat.

He opened his mouth several times, but couldn't help but close it, and finally mustered up the courage, "Mother, this is ...... What's going on?"

The old god of the city lord's wife closed her eyes on the ground, pretending not to hear, this is her usual trick to deal with her husband, Yin Ze has seen it countless times since he was a child - there is no doubt that he has always been towards his mother, but at this moment, he looked at this familiar expression, and for the first time understood why his father would be angry every time he saw it.

He took a deep breath and reminded himself that this was his real mother, suppressing the anger that he was about to erupt, and his words were cold, like frost, "Mother, why did this happen to Tao'er?"

The lady of the city lord remained silent, as if the son who was questioning her was like a fly flying around her, and she didn't even need to look at it.

"What are you asking her for?" the old city lord, who had just caught fire, seemed to regain a little strength and spirit, and shouted loudly at the two of them. Before Yin Ze arrived, he lost his temper at the city lord's wife, almost thundering, this round of angry scolding passed, and his energy was low, just when Yin Ze came, he would get angry after a while. "Don't say yes, do you? Take your son with you to die! I won't be threatened by death!"

"Father, I'll ask Mother. Yin Ze replied to the old city lord in a low voice, he will not be young next year, and he was said to the old city lord to face like this, "take it to death", and he didn't give any face, but he didn't seem to have any self-esteem that an adult should have.

"What can you ask? Ah? When was she not like this? I used to let her! Those concubines are despicable anyway, and I don't have a rare son! But now, she doesn't even let go of her son's concubines! That's your grandson too!"

Yin Ze pursed his lips tightly and slowly walked to the city lord's wife. But even though he felt that he could be as calm as a truly mature person, at this moment, he still couldn't help but feel extremely upset.

In fact, he has long been accustomed to it, his father, who is self-serving, dictatorial, and unfaithful to Taoist couples, and his mother, who is jealous, vicious, and ruthless, but weak to Taoist companions, he has nothing to be sad about.

But how could he not be sad and sad?

"Mother......" As soon as he spoke, it was as if a boulder was pressing down on his chest, so heavy that he could barely breathe. He asked with difficulty, "Peach's child...... It's really your ......."

Every word was so heavy that he could barely speak. In fact, he doesn't care so much about the children, in fact, he doesn't care about this wife, but all this means not only what he doesn't care about, but also means that he not only has a dictatorial and cold father, in fact, his mother doesn't care much about him either.

The old city lord was still scolding from afar, but the city lord's wife suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him with a complicated gaze that Yin Ze couldn't even imagine, but her mouth was tightly pursed, and she was still unwilling to say a word to her son, until the old city lord shouted "He Li" loudly there, she suddenly stood up from the chair and looked at the old city lord coldly, "You know best in your heart what you did the pickled things yourself! Why I did this, you also know best! I don't want to stay for a moment in this city lord's mansion that hides filth and filth!" ”

As she spoke, the old city lord, regardless of his uncertain face, glared at Yin Ze almost viciously, "As for you...... Just let me be his good son, so that I can inherit this Wei Xuecheng and be the great city lord of Wei Xuecheng for a long time!"

Yin Ze was simply inexplicable, he didn't understand his mother's sudden angry eyes, nor his father's sudden discoloration, he was like an outsider, but it was clear that he was the center of the storm, right?

The lady of the city lord angrily rebuked her husband and son, and walked away with her head held high. She is the Taoist companion of the old city lord, not the wife and concubine of the old city lord.

The old city lord sat there dumbfounded, not saying a word, and at this time he was really a little old man in his twilight years.

Yin Ze was a little unbearable, and walked up to him, "Father." He called softly.

The old lord ignored him.

Yin Ze...... Don't dare to call anymore. He will always be like this in front of his father, bound by his hands and feet, and listened to him. He remained silently beside the old city lord and said nothing.

However, just when they didn't know the place, the city lord's wife walked away with her head held high and raised her eyebrows, but she heard that there were distinguished guests from Huaicheng in the study, and her steps deviated, and she went to find the distinguished guests who they had forgotten at the same time.

Du Lanzhen and the three of them were already buried in the case, and they saw that it was dark, and suddenly the door of the study opened, and they couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the monk who was looking at them quietly.

She looked like a woman in her thirties, a little old, but not so obvious, the charm was still there, and the eyes that looked at them were calmly scrutinized.

Could this be the old city lord of Wei Xuecheng?

The three of them were confused and couldn't help but guess.

Although Yin Ze keeps saying "father", the three of them have not seen the custom of calling the head of the family, both male and female, "father".

"The three of you are distinguished guests from Huaicheng, right?" The female cultivator stepped into the study, closed the door behind her back, and introduced herself, "I am the Taoist companion of the City Lord of Wei Snow City, and Yin Ze is my son. ”

"Friendly. The three of them didn't know why, and greeted her out of politeness, and then became even more confused.

"I'm here to tell the three of you about Wei Xuecheng...... "The City Lord's Lady said, "What if...... If you want to investigate, please be careful of the Celestial Society. ”

The three looked at her in astonishment.

"When I was young, I was very infatuated with my fellow Daoists...... "The Lady of the City Lord whispered, "so there are many strange things about him, and I am willing to pretend that I don't know." But, but love will always fade, and I will eventually find my brain. ”

"I don't have clear evidence that he is a believer in the Celestial Society, but I have been with him for so many years, and I can confirm this matter. There was a heavy sigh in the words of the city lord's wife, "He, he used to have many illegitimate children, all of whom I disposed of—but not because I loved him to the point of distortion, but because his motives for giving birth to these children were not pure at all!"

"I'm not from Wei Xuecheng, I don't have any prestige, I don't have any evidence, I can't be convincing, but I can't sit idly by. ”

"For the first twenty years, I stayed here for love, and for the years that followed, apart from my son, and because I couldn't sit idly by and watch him succeed, it was against my conscience. ”

"Yin Ze's wife, Mrs. Tao, has just been killed by me—because my Taoist companion is becoming more and more frustrated, and now he actually attacks his daughter-in-law......" The city lord's wife took a deep breath, "I really can't stay here any longer, but, please be worthy of the conscience of your own elite of the Guardian Dao Alliance, and your conscience as a Xuanmen monk, since you have come to investigate, you must find him out!"
