Chapter 160: 160: I Want Wen Tingzhou to Adopt Li Huachun

Mrs. Lin's expression froze, she didn't expect that this Miss Wen was actually Concubine Wen who was in the spotlight in the harem now.

Meng Yinger turned around and held Lin's hand tightly, with jealousy in her eyes: "Mother, did you hear that she is actually the empress of the palace?"

"Mom, I heard it. Isn't it right that she is the empress?" Mrs. Lin patted her hand. Compared to Meng Yinger's jealous look, she was quite happy: "She is the emperor's woman, let alone you.

We have robbed Crown Prince Lingzhao, what are you afraid of?"

Meng Yinger's mind suddenly changed, yes, this way she would not be able to compete with her for the crown prince Ling Zhao.

Thinking of this, the jealousy in Meng Yinger's chest immediately dissipated, she raised her head and became confident again.

The Hou Mansion was crowded with people and noisy. Wen Nianruan avoided the crowd and took Pei Yiqing directly to find Wen Tingzhou in the courtyard.

Before reaching the yard, I heard Wen Decheng's angry roar: "You traitor! Do you want to anger your father to death?"

"Your mother has been busy preparing for this banquet. Now that the guests are here, you don't even come out to show your face. How embarrassing is it for your father and your mother!"

Then came Wen Tingzhou's cold and mocking voice: "Did I force you to hold this banquet? Don't think that I don't know the purpose of holding this banquet. Also, don't think about letting me adopt the name of the eldest lady.

,Totally impossible."

"You are presumptuous!"

Wen Decheng roared angrily and slapped Wen Tingzhou across the face.

Wen Tingzhou accepted the slap expressionlessly, without even frowning.

Wen Decheng didn't expect this son to be so stubborn. To put it bluntly, he just couldn't get enough of it.

Without further words to Wen Tingzhou, Wen Decheng threw down his sleeves angrily and turned around to leave with an angry look on his face.

When he reached the entrance of the courtyard, he lowered his head and left in the other direction, not noticing Wen Nianruan and Pei Yiqing a few meters away.

Wen Nianruan and Pei Yiqing heard the noise in the yard just now, and they could also hear the loud slap clearly.

Pei Yiqing's heart tightened upon hearing this, and she pulled Wen Nianruan into the courtyard quickly.

"Second brother."

Hearing Wen Nianruan's voice, Wen Tingzhou, who was arranging things in the room, was startled. He walked out of the room and saw Pei Yiqing unexpectedly, and his face froze.

"Fourth sister, Miss Pei, why are you here?"

Half of Wen Tingzhou's face was reddish, and there were palm prints printed on it, which were left by Wen Decheng's slap just now. Pei Yiqing looked distressed.

Wen Nianruan said with a smile: "Since the Hou Mansion has held a banquet for the second brother, how can we not come to support it?"

Regarding this banquet, Wen Tingzhou's face showed no trace of joy.

This banquet was not his intention in the first place, and Li Huachun had ulterior motives for hosting this banquet.

Inviting Wen Nianruan and Pei Yiqing into the room, Wen Tingzhou poured them a cup of hot tea.

Wen Nianruan saw that his face was cold, probably because of the banquet.

She took a sip of tea and said, "I just saw my father walking out and heard a few of your quarrels. What happened?"

Wen Tingzhou pursed his lips: "He wants to use this banquet to adopt me into the lap of the eldest lady."

Wen Nianruan's eyes trembled. It turned out that Li Huachun and Wen Decheng were paying attention to this. They wanted to adopt the second brother's name to Li Huachun, so that the second brother could be regarded as Li Huachun's biological son.

Although Li Huachun is nominally Wen Tingzhou's aunt, she is not Wen Tingzhou's biological mother. If Wen Tingzhou adopts her name, she will be no different from her biological mother.

Now that Wen Yunchuan is dead, the only person in the Hou family who can inherit the family business is Wen Tingzhou. Li Huachun will definitely not give up the family business to Wen Tingzhou easily, so he thought of this method.

If Wen Tingzhou adopts Li Huachun's name, their interests will be tied together in the future. Li Huachun is looking for a way out for himself.

After all, Wen Tingzhou's current situation is different from the past. If her career can reach a high level in the future, her mother will also benefit from it.

Li Huachun's abacus was very good, but he underestimated Wen Tingzhou's dislike of her.

Wen Nianruan asked: "What does second brother mean?"

"It is absolutely impossible for me to be adopted into the lap of the eldest lady," Wen Tingzhou's face tightened, hatred suppressed in his eyes, and his voice was low: "My aunt died at the hands of the eldest lady and was poisoned by her."

So all these years, he could not let go of Li Huachun.

When he was only five years old, his aunt Wen Shi was poisoned to death by Li Huachun because Wen Shi gave birth to a son, Wen Tingzhou.

When Mrs. Wen was still alive, Wen Tingzhou's life was not difficult at all, because with Mrs. Wen doting on him, and with the young men in the house, Wende City treated Wen Tingzhou well.

Moreover, Mrs. Wen was obedient and not a monster, which made Wende City worry-free. She even doted on their mother and son. Because of this, she was jealous and jealous of Li Huachun. She was a royal wife with a strong temperament.

How could she tolerate an aunt being more favored than her?

Moreover, Wen Decheng still valued Wen Tingzhou very much at that time, which made Li Huachun even more uneasy. She was afraid that Wen Tingzhou would compete with Wen Yunchuan for family property in the future.

Later, she refused to do anything, and directly poisoned Wen's life. Wen Decheng knew about this, but he was afraid of Li Huachun's natal family, so he did not dare to settle the score with her.

Wen Tingzhou later learned that Wen was poisoned by Li Huachun, and he always held a grudge.

After Wen's death, Li Huachun had some thoughts of killing Wen Tingzhou, but he cleverly escaped. Gradually, Wende City stopped caring about Wen Tingzhou and left him to fend for himself in a dilapidated courtyard.

Li Huachun saw that he was no longer taken seriously by Wende City and felt that he would not be able to make trouble in the future, so he was too lazy to care about his life and death.

Only in this way can Wen Tingzhou survive safely until now.

When Pei Yiqing heard this, she was frightened and felt sorry for Wen Tingzhou. She didn't expect that he had been like this since he was a child.

Although she was born into a famous and powerful family, there were not so many intrigues in the back house of the Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion. Her father was an infatuated man who only married her mother and had no aunts or concubines.

Living in such a harmonious environment, Pei Yiqing is so kind and simple, and is well protected by the two elders of the Pei family.

It's not surprising that Wen Nianruan is like this. With Li Huachun's temperament, it's normal for him to do such a thing.

There were three aunts in the house at first. Both Wen and Mu died at the hands of Li Huachun. The remaining aunt Jiang went crazy because of Wen Zhiyan. Now Li Huachun is the only one with no one left.

Compete with her as a great lady.

The three of them chatted for a few words, and Wen Nianruan found an excuse to leave, leaving Pei Yiqing and Wen Tingzhou alone to resolve the matter from last time.

After Wen Nianruan left, he didn't go far and just wandered around the area. There were too many people in the front yard, and Wen Tingzhou's yard was already remote and relatively clean, so no one would come here.

But someone still came.

When Wen Nianruan saw the man walking in front of him, his heart twitched unconsciously.

She didn't expect that Xiao Yihan would also come.
