Chapter 182: Liu and Wu Fei are miserable!
Chapter 186: Liu and Wu Fei are miserable!
······
Wu Lou left the palace and did not return to the house at the first time.
Instead, he went to the Prince's Mansion.
The Prince's Mansion is not located inside the Imperial Palace, but is located outside the Imperial Palace, just like other princes' residences.
Wu Lou belongs to the prince's party, and at the moment he can only put his last hope on the prince, hoping that the prince can help him.
Go to the king and intercede for him.
Although he knew that neither his concubine Liu nor his son Wu Fei would end up too well, or even be killed by Chen Chao, he wanted to keep his official position.
If the official position is lost, then everything is really over.
resigned and returned to his hometown, Wu Lou did not have such a big determination.
However, unfortunately, Wu Lou saw the prince, but the result disappointed him.
The prince expressed regret for this matter, and as for helping him to intercede, it was simply impossible.
In the words of the crown prince Qin Yuanzhao, "The Changlin fief is a thorn in the eyes of the father, but it is also the reverse scale on the father's body.
It's useless for this prince to intercede for you now, and in the end, he will even let himself be scolded by his father.
Wu Shangshu should know that the reason why my father made me the crown prince was because I was the eldest brother, and only because I was the eldest brother, but in the end, it was unknown whether I, the crown prince, could successfully ascend to the throne.
If one day, the prince makes some mistakes, and my father will depose me, the prince, and let King Ling be the crown prince.
In the affairs of the Changlin fiefdom and the Chen Dynasty, the crown prince could not do anything.
Wu Shangshu asks for more blessings. ”
So, after the words of the crown prince Qin Yuanzhao, Wu Lou knew that he, a member of the prince's party, had been abandoned.
He suddenly fell into despair and returned to the mansion in a hurry.
······
The people sent by the Liu family to inquire about the situation had already returned to the palace, but the report said that there was no movement in the General's Mansion and nothing abnormal.
After receiving such a reward, the Liu family knew that the people who killed the Chen Dynasty had failed.
As for the fact that there is no movement in the General's Mansion, she understands this.
There are two possibilities
One is that the General's Mansion doesn't know who is behind the scenes, and it is enough to clean up the assassins.
Another possibility is that Chen Chao knew that she was the mastermind behind the scenes, but he knew that he was powerless to fight with him, so he chose to swallow his anger.
In Liu's opinion, the latter is the most likely, after all, the person she sent is only for the sake of employment, and once she fails to save her life, her tone may not be strict, and betraying her is also very likely.
"What can you do? Isn't the dignified Shangshu Mansion stronger than your defeated General's Mansion?"
The candle flame in the room flickered, reflecting Liu's femme fatale face, proud and arrogant.
There was a voice outside the room, the sound of someone talking, Liu heard it, it was the voice of his master.
It's almost dawn.
Liu put on a piece of clothing, pushed open the door, and through the already lit sky, she saw the figure of her master.
The old man must be tired, and his body is a little shaky.
She hurried out of the room and stepped forward to help.
"Sir. ”
"Smack!"
As soon as she greeted her, she called the master, and when she was about to help Wu Lou, she was slapped heavily by Wu Lou, whose face was a little depressed and even more deeply angry.
Liu was caught off guard and was slapped in the face, and the person fell to the ground.
She covered her face with bright red fingerprints, the corners of her mouth were bleeding, and she looked at Wu Lou with horror and grievance.
There were tears welling up in his eyes.
"Master, what are you doing, did the concubine do something wrong, why did you beat me?"
Liu's voice was faintly sobbing.
Wu Lou spoils her the most on weekdays, and he is a little distressed, but when he thinks that because of what she did, he loses his official position, he hates it so much that he suppresses his love for the Liu family in the bottom of his heart.
"Fei'er is injured?"
Wu Lou stared at Liu, Liu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard him ask like this, but he quickly calmed down, and the grievances in his heart were inexplicably less.
She understood why Wu Lou beat her, it turned out that she knew that her son was injured.
He must feel sorry for his son, and blame himself for not taking good care of his son, so he beat himself, if so, he was not wronged by this slap.
Who told his master that he always loved his son, that was his heart.
"Let me ask you, was Fei'er injured by Chen Chao?"
Wu Lou asked again, because of anger, his spit was spewing out.
"Master, since you know, the concubine will not hide it from you, the concubine saw that you were busy with official business these days, so she couldn't bear to disturb you, thinking that I would solve this matter with Fei'er.
Fei'er was seriously injured by Chen Chao, and both arms were afraid to be scrapped, and several ribs were broken.
All this was done by that little in the Chen Dynasty, so the concubine wanted him to die. Just two hours ago, the concubine invited a killer to go to the General's Mansion to assassinate Chen Chao, but there has been no movement, and she was sent to inquire about the situation before, but there was no movement in the General's Mansion, I am afraid that she has missed.
But don't worry, master, I won't just let go of that little in the Chen Dynasty, I will definitely kill him and seek justice for Fei'er. ”
Liu knelt on Wu Lou's body and said coldly, his face a little distorted.
"You really did it. ”
Wu Lou's cold gaze stared at Liu.
He still had a hint of thinking that he was wronging the Liu family, but now there is no turning point, and the matter is really done by the Liu family.
"Smack!"
Wu Lou slapped Liu to the ground again, and Liu was fanned on the same face, and the blood at the corner of his mouth was flowing more and more, and his face was swollen even higher.
"Master, what's wrong with you, did the concubine do something wrong?"
Liu was puzzled, was it difficult to fail because he sent someone to assassinate Chen Chao?
"Liu, you are really a woman, you still have the face to ask me what's wrong, okay, I'll tell you what's wrong.
The monarch already knows about you sending someone to assassinate the Chen Dynasty, and our Wu family is finished because of the stupid things you did, you know?"
Wu Lou looked extremely excited, and his face was a little hideous.
"Master, how could the monarch know about this matter?"
At this time, Liu also realized the seriousness of the matter, which was not at all what she thought.
"How did the monarch know, the Chen Dynasty led people into the palace, which angered the monarch, and the monarch couldn't touch him, so he took all his anger out on our Wu family.
You and Fei'er will be handed over to the Chen Dynasty to deal with, and I, when I go to court at dawn, I will take the initiative to resign and return to my hometown.
Liu, I have always doted on you and loved you, and regarded you as a treasure, but I don't want to hurt the Wu family in the end, but it is you, I am really heartbroken.
There is also Wu Fei, the little brute, who knows that he is bullying people on weekdays, but this time it's okay, he provoked the tiger's head, he is playing with fire and setting himself on fire. ”
Wu Lou's remorse in his heart at this time was higher than the sky and deeper than the sea, and he regretted that he should not spoil his concubine and son.
I thought that I was a scholar of the Ministry of Industry, a member of the imperial court, almost no one dared to mess with him in the Ming Capital, and he had the support of the prince behind him, but today I realized that he had not met a ruthless person, and when he met Chen Chao like this, even if he had a few more of them, he would have to finish playing.
Liu's body was even softer, she was afraid, her face was swollen on one side, and her face was white on the other.
Her eyes were gloomy, and her body was shaking violently.
"Master, what should I do, go and beg the prince. ”
Liu seemed to have grasped the last straw, and his gloomy eyes were slightly bright.
"I've already been there, and the prince has asked us to ask for more blessings. Okay Liu, I can't do anything about this matter, I can't save you and Fei'er, if you want to live, if you want to not be severely punished, go and ask Chen Chao. ”
"No, sir, I don't want it"
"Liu, if you don't want to cause our entire Wu clan to be buried with you, you can accept your fate, this is also your own fault, and you can't complain.
The housekeeper took someone to send his wife and Fei'er to the General's Mansion and handed them over to the Chen Dynasty for disposal. ”
