When Yao Zhenting heard the sound, the hand holding the tea cup shook slightly, and his expression suddenly changed. At this moment, Yao Tu hurried in.
"Master, there is a woman outside the house. She said she knows the third lady, and she also said she has something very important to see the master." Yao Tu leaned over and spoke respectfully.
"Did you ask her what happened?" Yao Zhenting glanced sideways at Yao Tu, his voice getting colder.
"The old slave asked her, but she said she would not explain her purpose until she saw the master. The old slave gave her some silver. It seems that she was not here for money." Yao Tu knew Yao Zhenting's thoughts and added.
"Tell her to come in." Yao Zhenting's black eyebrows tightened and his voice was slightly unhappy. He expected that even Su Muzi's relatives would not dare to act wild in his Prime Minister Yao's mansion.
Not long after Yao Tu left, he walked in with an old woman about fifty years old. The old woman's face was shiny, and she had a very eye-catching red peony in her fluffy bun. She was dressed like the Madam of Yichun Court.
.
When she saw the old woman, Yao Mowanyu raised her fingers lightly and caressed her forehead inadvertently. She remembered asking Liu Xing to remind her to dress cleanly, but she didn't expect that she was dressed so exaggeratedly. She didn't know what she said.
Will my father believe it?
"Who are you?" Yao Zhenting asked curiously, looking at the strange faces in front of him.
"Back to the prime minister, Mrs. Dou Li, a civilian woman." When Mrs. Dou Li saw Yao Zhenting speaking, she immediately greeted him with a smile and said enthusiastically.
"Yao Tu!" Yao Zhenting called out in disgust. Next to him, Yao Tu took two hurried steps and pulled Dou Li back.
"Don't you have something to say to the master? Say it quickly!" Yao Tu urged.
"Oh, I almost forgot! Master, a commoner woman dares to swear to God that Yao Yu is not my biological child!" Mrs. Dou Li's expression was solemn and she swore firmly.
Hearing this, Yao Zhenting slammed the lid of the cup in his hand on the edge of the cup, and his sharp eyes shot out with an extremely cold light.
"Bold civilian woman, what are you talking about!" Yao Tu did not expect Dou Li to speak so arrogantly, and immediately wanted to drive her out.
"Your Majesty, if there is no evidence, how dare a civilian woman talk nonsense! Don't you remember a civilian woman? Then Su Muzi gave birth to a civilian woman!" Mrs. Dou Li seemed not to see Yao Zhenting's face.
The dark clouds shrouding me tried my best to argue.
"Get out quickly!" Yao Tu stretched out his hand to pull Dou Li away, but was stopped by Yao Zhenting.
"Let her say it!" Han Zhe's voice was bone-chillingly cold. Yao Mowan felt the gloomy chill, and the corners of her lips curled up with a vague arc.
"Listen, my lord asked me to say, let go!" Mrs. Dou Li pushed Yao Tu away without knowing her life, and looked at Yao Zhenting again with a smile on her face.
"I don't know what I know, but Su Muzi is not a virtuous woman. After she was kicked out by the prime minister's office, she lived alone with my nephew Zhou Chengwu. The two of them secretly lived a small life without any talk of matchmaking.
Later, they ran out of money, so they came up with your idea, sir.
After receiving the Lord's mercy, Su Muzi was ungrateful. Not only did she continue to associate with my nephew, but she also spent all the money you gave her on my nephew. The common woman got nothing!" Dou Li
Shi said with a bright tongue, not noticing the thick clouds and waves on Yao Zhenting's face at all.
On one side, Yao Mowan glanced sideways at Dou Li, and couldn't help but sigh. In fact, as long as she told the truth, she could make Yao Zhenting half angry to death. Now that she is adding fuel to the fire, it seems that Yao Zhenting is going to be sick for a while.
"Tell me the key points!" Yao Zhenting gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"Yes, yes... Back to my lord, when you knew that Su Muzi was pregnant, she was actually already three months pregnant! Three months ago, she was not with you yet.
After all, Yao Yu is my nephew's child!" Mrs. Dou Li stated seriously.
"Impossible, that's not what the doctor said when taking the pulse!" On the other side, Yao Tu tried his best to argue.
"So you have been kept in the dark. The doctor is from Zhuangji Pharmacy. He is very familiar with my nephew, so he will naturally help me." Dou Li said "nephew", and Yao Mowan couldn't help but listen.
I want to laugh, but in this case, it would be wisest to draw a clear line.
"How could this happen..." Yao Tu looked at Yao Zhenting in shock, only to see that Yao Zhenting's face was purple, his eyes were stained red, and the veins in the hand holding the tea cup were bursting out, as if they might burst at any moment.
"So, Prime Minister, you have been helping others raise their sons! That's not all. Even if Su Muzi was taken to the Prime Minister's Mansion and still interacted with my nephew, when the women saw them on the street, no
You know, I really thought they were a family of three! And..."
‘Pa—’ While Mrs. Dou Li was still mumbling, there was a sudden bang, and Yao Zhenting slammed the tea cup out of his hand. The tea splashed on Mrs. Dou Li’s hand, which made her wake up slightly.
"Back...back to your lord, this matter...from the beginning to the end was that bitch Su Muzi seducing my nephew, and it has nothing to do with the civilian woman. The civilian woman only heard about it.
.....You have to conduct a thorough investigation and offer a huge reward, and then... you will exterminate your relatives in a righteous manner. This is all the civilian women know, and that... reward..."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Dou Li couldn't help but choked and looked at Yao Tu.
"Who told you to investigate thoroughly and offer a huge reward?" Yao Tu heard the clue and asked solemnly. On one side, Yao Mowan raised his eyes slightly and looked at Dou Li, with clear eyes that could not tell the difference between light and dark.
"A thorough investigation! A thorough investigation must be carried out! Yao Tu, go and do it immediately, I want to know the truth!" Before Dou Li could respond, Yao Zhenting suddenly stood up and slapped the case, his eyes like copper bells. Yao Mowan clearly saw the stain on his forehead.
The veins were bulging, as if they were about to burst at any moment.
"I understand, sir... I will help you go back to your room to rest." Seeing Yao Zhenting's face looking very bad, Yao Tu stepped forward worriedly.
"Do a thorough investigation right away! Cough cough...cough cough cough!" Yao Zhenting suddenly felt his throat taste fishy, and a mouthful of blood spattered out without warning.
"Master! Come here! Call the doctor!" Seeing Yao Zhenting acting like this, Yao Tu immediately shouted, and Yao Mowan also stepped forward with an anxious look on his face.
"Father, how are you? Don't scare Wan'er!" Yao Mowan's voice was full of tears, and she was a little worried in her heart. It wouldn't be cheap if she was so angry! The mother suffered,
She wants to take back bit by bit what her sister has suffered!
In the house, Mrs. Dou Li did not expect that things would reach this point. If the prime minister was really angry, not only because he could not get the reward, but also for his life. So when everyone was in a hurry, Mrs. Dou Li quietly left the main hall.
, left the Prime Minister's Office.
According to the doctor's words, Yao Zhenting was so anxious that it would be fine if he took good care of himself. Seeing that Yao Zhenting had fallen asleep, Yao Tu ordered Chen Qiang to send the doctor away, and he found Yao Mowan in Shujingxuan.
"Concubine Yao is here, so I can find her easily." Yao Tu respectfully stepped forward and bowed his head.
"Tingyue, I'm a little hungry. Go to the kitchen and get some pastries." Yao Mowan stared at the leafy elm tree in front of her with her clear eyes and ordered quietly. Tingyue understood, so she turned around and retreated.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say. I don't know whether I should say it or not?" At this moment, Shujingxuan was completely silent. The wind was blowing and the elm leaves were rustling. It was a unique scene.
"I will listen to what Butler Yao says no matter what." Yao Mowan withdrew her gaze and slowly turned to Yao Tu.
"The appearance of Mrs. Dou Li is very strange. I always feel that..."
"It was arranged by me." Yao Mowan admitted before Yao Tu finished speaking. Such a straightforward answer left Yao Tu speechless.
"The master just got over the pain of losing his son. And the young master is already dead. Why do you..."
"You should know best why I am here! Besides, what Dou Li said is the truth, you can go and check it out." The cold voice revealed the anger that could not be concealed, and Yao Mowan spoke sharply, venting the extreme pain in her heart.
Yao Tu heard the sound and subconsciously looked towards the arch. Seeing that there was no one around, he turned his attention to Yao Mowan.
"My queen...does she hate the master? But the master is her biological father after all!" Yao Tu looked at Yao Mowan anxiously.
"In the past twenty years, has Mo Wan existed in my father's eyes? Compared to Yao Zhenting, you are more like Mo Wan's father..." Yao Mowan knew that in the entire Yao Xiangfu, except for Liu Xing
, the housekeeper in front of him was very good to his sister, which should be the reason why he helped her overtly and covertly time and time again.
