Xia Zhiyao was originally full of resistance to his grandfather's plan. After meeting Yuan Suijun and falling in love with him at first sight, he became even more unwilling to marry Fang Bo.
With a plan in her mind, she was ready to go back and plan the matter carefully. Her maid saw it and decided to remind the master about it after returning. The Weiguo County Lord was favored by the saint, and their Suyi uncle's house was not as good as before.
If you offend the Lord of Weiguo County for this matter, then the gain outweighs the loss.
Xia Zhiyao, who returned to his mansion, heard a male voice when passing by the garden, "Miss Xia."
Xia Zhiyao turned his head and saw Fang Bo, who was wearing plain silk and satin.
Xia Zhiyao endured the disgust in his heart and greeted him: "It turns out to be Mr. Fang. Are you here to see grandpa today?"
Fang Bo looked at her shy look with lowered eyes, and the obsession in his eyes deepened. He showed a sad expression, wanting to use this matter to exchange for the pity of the beauty in front of him, "My adoptive father and adoptive mother fell into the water a few days ago, and both of them died.
"
Xia Zhiyao had no interest in the affairs of his adoptive father and mother. He just wanted to maintain his image and comforted him, "My condolences."
Fang Bo said: "I have lost the relative who loves me the most."
Tears fell from his eyes, and his heart was filled with guilt for his adoptive father and mother. After he returned, he specifically told his adoptive parents about the eldest princess, hoping that they would cooperate with him in lying in front of the emperor.
But his adoptive father and mother were unwilling and instead persuaded him to give up the idea. They were timid, fearing that if the matter was exposed, they would be killed.
During the dispute, Fang Bo accidentally pushed his adoptive father to the ground. The adoptive father hit the table and soon lost his breath.
Fang Bo, who unintentionally committed the crime of parricide, killed his adoptive mother out of fear, and created the illusion that the two fell into the water. He must not let others know that he killed his adoptive parents, otherwise he will become
Everyone calls out for beating the sinner.
If it weren't for the stubbornness of his adoptive parents, they wouldn't have come to this point. He obviously just wanted them to enjoy the glory and wealth with him at the beginning. Thinking of the love his adoptive parents had for him, Fang Bo shed even more tears.
.
Xia Zhiyao saw Fang Bo crying in front of him and felt extremely irritated, but he had to make concessions with him.
Listening to her gentle comfort, the sadness in Fang Bo's heart eased a lot, and he said, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper in front of the eldest lady." He glanced at her, "The eldest lady is so gentle and approachable that I can't bear it.
Live your true feelings."
Xia Zhiyao still looked gentle and gentle, "Young Master Fang is a temperamental person. I only hope that you will get over your sadness as soon as possible."
After saying that, she left quickly.
Fang Bo looked at her back and became more and more convinced in his heart. The eldest lady was so gentle to him, and he was probably there in her heart. He could not let her down, and had to become a nobleman worthy of her as soon as possible.
.
He had to ask Uncle Su Yi quickly when this matter could be arranged. As soon as he became the son of the eldest princess, he could also make a marriage arrangement with the eldest lady as soon as possible. Judging from the attitude that Uncle Su Yi showed on weekdays, he meant to get married. Otherwise, he wanted to get married.
Nor would he and the eldest lady meet by chance again and again.
…
Su Yibo is naturally concerned about this matter, but it still takes a lot of effort to clean it up from beginning to end.
It was not until the seventh day of March, when everything was arranged properly, that he wrote a note to Emperor Rong Ji.
That night, Rong Ji flipped through the book he presented. He was silent for a moment and then ordered: "Please invite Uncle Su Yi into the palace."
An hour later, Su Yibo appeared in front of him panting, "I have met your Majesty."
"Get up."
Rong Ji asked: "You said you found the child, are you serious?"
Su Yibo lowered his head and looked respectful, "I'm not 100% sure either. I have to leave it to Your Majesty to investigate the matter...I met him on the day when the results were released. His name is Fang Bo.
."
"Seeing that his features resembled those of the eldest princess, I couldn't help but feel friendly, so I said a few words to him, and then we chatted and realized that he was not his parents' biological son."
"I saw that he was similar in age to my grandnephew, so I sent someone to investigate his affairs."
Su Yibo saw that the emperor was silent and continued, "After I asked his adoptive father and adoptive mother, I found out that he was killed by his adoptive parents in the ruined temple on May 23, the 25th year of Fengqing.
Found it."
"There are still a few peach trees in front of the ruined temple."
The news of the ruined temple was found out by Su Yibo through secrets in the palace, and outsiders did not know about it.
"I thought that he was born at the same time as my miserable nephew, so I quickly wrote the note."
When Rong Ji heard about the ruined temple, his eyebrows moved slightly, "Where are his adoptive parents?"
Su Yibo showed a regretful expression, "Those two people were not lucky. They accidentally fell into the water a few days ago and their bodies were not found."
Rong Ji didn't say he believed it or didn't believe it, he just said: "Bring the child over tomorrow."
Su Yibo was overjoyed, but he said: "After all, this involves royal blood, no matter how cautious you are, why not let the child and the eldest princess have a bloody acknowledgment then?"
Rong Ji said: "Let's talk about it then."
Then he waved his hand and told him to leave.
Su Yibo left with a respectful look on his face, feeling reassured that the matter was settled.
…
Rong Ji then went to Queen Gu and told her the matter in a calm tone.
Queen Gu was surprised, "Isn't this too coincidental?"
Rong Ji snorted, "It's indeed a coincidence." He had intentionally leaked the news about the ruined temple. He was about to take the opportunity to see if there were any other spies in the palace. Unexpectedly, he actually hooked up with Su Yi.
Bo.
The news of the ruined temple is of course true. But Rong Ji himself kept a more crucial piece of information - his nephew had a crescent birthmark on the sole of his foot. No one else knew about this except him and the deceased Aunt Yang.
.
Queen Gu lowered her eyes, "Since Uncle Su Yi dares to shed blood and admit his kinship, I think he should be well prepared."
Rong Ji said, "Let's see how far Uncle Su Yi can extend his hand." As a former general, Uncle Su Yi still held half of the tiger talisman in his hand.
When Queen Gu saw her husband strategizing, she knew that Uncle Su Yi would not be able to please him in the future. She smiled and said, "No matter how much he jumps around, he can't escape His Majesty's Five Fingers Mountain."
Rong Ji pondered for a moment and said, "If the child really looks like the eldest sister, it's not like we can't let him pretend for a while."
Before finding his real nephew, he can use this person to stabilize the eldest sister's mood. In addition, he can also use his existence to test what other forces are ready to move. On the other hand, he can also use this matter to attract
Keep King Kang's attention.
For example, if he hints to the outside world that he wants to train his nephew to be his heir... King Kang will not know if he will be able to stabilize it by then.
