As she hurriedly walked that way, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. Sang Qian was startled and hurriedly put away her sword: "Dad!"
The old man in front of him was naturally Sang Hong. He was holding a steaming teacup in his hand: "Where are you going?"
"It's nothing. I was a little restless and went out to see if there were any thieves breaking in." Sang Qian hesitated for a moment and did not tell the truth. Her brother had an accident and her father was already very sad when he lost his son in old age. If he knew about his sister-in-law,
I'm afraid it will make you even more sad and angry.
During this time, she felt that her father seemed to be much older and no longer as energetic as he was in the past few years. There seemed to be something wrong with his body, so after weighing it, she chose to hide it.
Sang Hong smiled, but his cloudy eyes were filled with a look of indifference: "I just heard some noise outside, so I came out to see if you brought someone back just now?"
Sang Qian knew that her father was an eighth-level master, and she couldn't hide the news about the maid who had just come in and that she was settling down with him, so she told him about the visit to Prince Qi's residence just now.
Sang Hong nodded: "This kid Zu An is indeed a talent, and he can freely enter and leave the heavily guarded Qi Prince's Mansion. His cultivation is evident. His growth is really rapid."
A year ago, the other party was just like an ant in his eyes, but he didn't expect that he has grown to such an extent now, and even has a higher level of cultivation than him.
Hearing the admiration in her father's tone, Sang Qian had a complicated look on her face. She wondered if you would appreciate him so much if you knew about the relationship between him and his sister-in-law.
Next, Sang Hong spoke again, asking about various details about Prince Qi's family and his party, asking endlessly every time, as if not missing a single clue.
Sang Qian was anxious as she answered. If she continued like this, she might not be able to catch that bastard.
After finally finishing talking about the matter in Prince Qi's Mansion, she was about to think of a way to send her father back to his room to rest. After all, she didn't want to make the matter too big to end.
As a result, Sang Hong had no intention of moving away: "Qian'er, we father and daughter haven't had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time, right?"
Sang Qian: "???"
She was a little confused. Why did her father talk to her so late at night?
Unfortunately, seeing that the other party's interest was growing, she could not refute her father's interest.
I could only respond while glancing in the direction of the room where Zheng Dan was from time to time.
Sang Hong seemed to have noticed this, and couldn't help but look back: "Qian'er, you seem to be looking at your sister-in-law, what's the matter?"
Sang Qian's expression was a little unnatural: "It's nothing, I just feel that after my brother passed away, my sister-in-law is a little pitiful. They are not a real couple. Why not find an opportunity to let my sister-in-law go back to the Zheng family."
This was indeed her true words. As a woman, she sympathized with Zheng Dan's experience. Something happened to the Sang family on the day of the visit, and her brother died not long after. She was not even considered a serious couple, and the result was
Became a widow.
But as the groom's sister, she also felt that it was a bit outrageous for her sister-in-law to sneak around with other men under the guise of Mrs. Sang. If it had been any other man, she would have revolted long ago, but the other man was kind to the father and daughter.
Zu'an, she fell into a tangle.
So as long as Zheng Dan leaves the Sang family and regains her freedom, she won't have to be so conflicted.
Originally, she thought her father would agree, but Sang Hong shook his head: "No!"
Sang Qian was stunned. She didn't expect her father to refuse so simply: "Why?"
Sang Hong said: "Your brother is dead, our Sang family has lost its incense, and she is your brother's widow. The only chance is with her."
Sang Qian looked confused: "But they haven't consummated their marriage, and there's no way they could have a posthumous child."
Sang Hong said calmly: "But outsiders don't know."
Sang Qian: "???"
"Okay, don't think about it, go back and rest early." Sang Hong stood up and patted her shoulder, "By the way, my father recently had a whim and wrote a letter, which is just right for you."
As he spoke, he took out a roll of paper with wet ink from his sleeve and handed it to her, and then left slowly.
Sang Qian opened the piece of paper and saw the words "It's rare to be confused" written on it.
She was stunned at first, then thoughtful.
She has always been a smart person, and she was already a little suspicious when her father suddenly came out today as if he was deliberately delaying something. Now that she saw this picture and what he just said, she suddenly became cheerful.
It turns out that my father actually knew all this.
But even if it is to repay a favor, there is no need to use the sister-in-law to pay off the debt, right? This is too humble for the Sang family.
Besides, even if my sister-in-law is really pregnant and claims to be my brother's posthumous child, we all know that the child has no blood relationship with the Sang family, so what's the point?
Sang Qian's face turned red and white, and she looked in the direction of Zheng Dan's room. She took steps several times, but finally took them back.
She sighed quietly and finally returned to her room dejectedly.
Sang Hong, who had been secretly sizing her up from a distance, had an expression on his face. His daughter was indeed very smart, but it was a pity that she was still young and not quite ready to understand what I really thought.
…
Early the next morning, Zu An tiptoed away from Sang's house. On the way, he recalled the charm of the mandarin duck bath yesterday. Zheng Dan and Na Nizi were really a very annoying little goblin.
But the feeling of being kicked out of the fragrant bed before dawn is really unpleasant. Well, it will be much better when Dandan is free again.
Enjoying the good days in the future, he did not go to the palace, but went directly to Prince Qi's Mansion.
He did not go through the main door, but quietly jumped in from a hidden corner.
But unlike last night, he didn't deliberately hide his traces this time.
As expected, he was quickly discovered by the guards inside.
Looking at the people who were watching eagerly, Zu An said calmly: "Take me to see King Qi."
…
In King Qi's study, the expressionless King Qi looked at Zu An and said calmly: "Do you know what the crime of breaking into the prince's palace without permission is?"
Because there is no electricity in this world, nightlife is not that rich. People generally go to bed early and wake up early.
King Qi had just finished washing up and was extremely surprised when he heard his subordinate's report, but he still had Zu An brought over.
Zu An smiled: "I just don't want people to see me coming in from the main entrance to find the prince and cause unnecessary trouble."
"Why did you come to see me so early in the morning?" King Qi was very curious.
Zu An put away his smile and said coldly: "My lord, you have done something wrong!"
King Qi was stunned at first, and then became furious: "You bastard, did you come here specifically to entertain me?"
The anger value from Zhao Jing is +444!
Feeling the oncoming momentum, Zu An said calmly: "I have found out the case of the concubine's drowning. She did not drown, but someone used internal energy to enter her brain to destroy her vitality and then threw her into the pool to do it.
There was an accidental drowning, and the prince should know who the murderer is."
Hearing him explain the details so clearly, King Qi fell into silence. He did not defend himself, but looked at the other party solemnly: "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out when you run to my palace like this?"
Zu An smiled and said, "Your Majesty is a smart man, so he would not do such an unwise move. I came here today to inform the Prince first, and then I will go back to the palace to report this matter to the Emperor."
King Qi's heart moved: "You haven't reported it to the emperor yet?"
Zu An replied: "I'm about to go, right?"
King Qi narrowed his eyes, looked him up and down, and immediately realized that the other party was deliberately notifying him and asking him to prepare countermeasures in advance, but why did he do this?
He asked calmly: "Why did you tell me in advance?"
Zu An replied: "Since ancient times, cunning rabbits have died and been cooked by lackeys, and birds have hid all their good bows. Only with you, my lord, can I have the greatest value."
King Qi sneered and said: "How dare you say such treacherous words? Come on, drag me out and chop me down!"
