Hearing this sentence, Qi Yaoyao was particularly satisfied. This time, she once again understood the benefits of power. Therefore, even if she was not satisfied with some of the king's past actions, she still expressed her gratitude with admiration on her face.
The prince is indeed not respected by the emperor, and he has allowed Tang Pingting to do a lot of things over the years, but he is not stupid, especially the perfunctory look in Qi Yaoyao's eyes. He can't see the little thoughts of his granddaughter.
He had a headache, rubbed his brows, called for Zhou Yemiao, and said in a low voice, "Yao Yao has grown crooked. At this age, she will definitely not be able to break up with her. With her marriage to the Hou Mansion going so far, her life must have been too long."
Can’t go down”
Zhou Yemiao hurriedly said, "My daughter will do whatever you say."
The prince nodded, "My grandfather is a well-known wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River. I will write to him later and ask him to worry about me again. Find Yaoyao a well-off family in the south of the Yangtze River." Find someone who doesn't care about her rules, but still values her.
With her status, Yaoyao will not be wronged when the time comes. As a merchant, no matter how arrogant and domineering she is, she cannot do much wrong.
Zhou Yemiao was a little reluctant to let go. No matter how ignorant her daughter was, she was still her only relative in the world. Mother and daughter had been dependent on each other for many years. However, if you care about your child, you have to think long-term for your child. She was tangled in her heart, but she finally endured the pain.
head.
Qi Yaoyao didn't know yet that she was about to be sent to Jiangnan, so she would rest in peace and recover after returning.
Not to mention how much the Marquis was dissatisfied with his son, he would not allow a woman like Tang Hui'an to affect his son's character anymore. So, he asked his confidants to give some instructions, and among the meals he sent to the two of them, he specially made stew for Tang Hui'an.
Some medicine was added to the tonic soup.
The medicine is mild, and nothing is visible for the time being. She will vomit blood later in the day, and then gradually become weak, as if she has tuberculosis. She will disappear from this world in three months at most.
The Marquis has long wanted to use this method against her. The reason why he has not taken action is because he wants to use this woman to temper his son. Let him know that the feelings in this world are unreliable and women will do whatever it takes to gain status and favor. At that time, the Marquis
I never expected that even though my son already knew that Tang Hui'an was vicious, he would still be willing to protect her.
This is stupid
Fortunately, he only made mistakes with this one woman. As long as that woman is gone, he can still be the wise and powerful heir apparent.
Tang Hui'an was drowsy after taking the medicine and was not in good spirits. Sun Changping was cautious by nature. Knowing that her parents were unwilling to keep her, he saw that she was different from the past. He immediately became alert and asked someone to find her.
Got the doctor.
The doctor took his pulse and said everything was normal.
Sun Changping always felt that something was wrong, so he quietly went to the gate of the courtyard and asked someone to send him a message.
Not long after, one of the Hou Ye's entourage came over.
When Sun Changping saw him coming in person, he said displeasedly, "You are too careless. Just send a message. If your father finds out,"
"This time, as long as I pass the news to you, the Marquis will definitely know about it." The attendant said solemnly, "It concerns Miss Tang's life, do you want to listen?"
Sun Changping asked directly, "What do you want?"
"This is the last deal. I am also grateful for your help to our family over the years, so I took the risk to tell you this." The attendant sighed, "As long as you give me enough money to settle down in another place.
That’s fine.”
Sun Changping frowned and asked, "What about your body contract?"
"The younger one got it two days ago." The entourage had already planned to leave completely.
Sun Changping was already prepared and took out a stack of banknotes from his body and stuffed them into it.
The entourage was very satisfied. After whispering a few words, he disappeared on the trail with the money. A little later, the family left the capital.
Sun Changping stood there, unable to recover for a long time.
Tang Hui'an woke up, and her side was cold. She was startled. She turned her head and saw the tall man in front of the window, and then she felt relieved, "Chang Ping, why don't you sleep in the middle of the night?"
Sun Changping walked to the bed and took her into his arms, "Hui'an, they want your life."
Tang Hui'an was shocked. She suddenly remembered the inexplicable sleepiness she felt at noon today, and fell asleep until now. She was frightened in her heart, and her voice trembled when she spoke, "Can I still live?"
The medicine in that soup has a mild effect and will not kill people in a day or two. But it will be difficult for her to survive if she stays in the house any longer. Sun Changping closed his eyes and said, "Let's go."
Tang Hui'an "We two adults can go anywhere, but we still have two children."
"The children are innocent, and father will not harm them." Sun Changping did not intend to completely sever ties with the Hou Mansion beforehand. At this moment, it was not that easy to disappear with the mother and son under the nose of the Hou Mansion.
, the safest way is for the two of you to leave and wait until your parents have calmed down before coming back.
He did this because he wanted to let his parents see his affection for Tang Hui'an.
Tang Hui'an was a little uneasy. In fact, she didn't want to leave. There were so many men in the world. She chose Sun Changping not only because of his deep love, but also because of his status.
If he is no longer the prince of the Hou family, what else can he have?
Poor and humble couples are miserable, and many couples quarrel over a few coins. Tang Hui'an does not want to live like that.
But she would die if she stayed in the Marquis Mansion, and she didn't want to die.
After two days, the prince still did not receive a reply from the Hou Mansion. Instead, he heard that the Hou Mansion was looking for someone everywhere in and outside the capital. After making some inquiries, he heard that Sun Changping had disappeared with the woman.
The dignified prince of the Marquis Mansion doesn't want the throne, but he wants a woman.
The prince didn't really believe it anyway. In his opinion, it was more like the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion was fooling him.
So, he went to the door specifically to ask for an explanation.
Mrs. Hou was full of apologies, "The servants didn't pay attention and let the two of them run away. The family is unfortunate and the prince is laughing at it. But don't worry, as soon as I find the two of them, I will send Tang Hui'an's body to him immediately."
The prince sneered again and again: "You want to protect them, but you should think of a better excuse." Or show sincerity to compensate.
He stood up suddenly and said, "Let's go to the emperor to tell the difference."
Mrs. Hou was startled and hurriedly tried to stop her, but the prince was already determined. Even though Mr. Hou rushed back later, he still could not persuade him to return.
The emperor had vaguely heard about the affairs between the two houses, and naturally he also knew that Sun Changping had a foreign wife, and even allowed the foreign wife to harm his wife, such a ridiculous thing.
Officials of the current dynasty are not allowed to have wives, but this kind of thing has always been ignored by the people. As long as it is consensual and the woman is not forced, the emperor will not care about it. Right now, the emperor knows that there are at least seven or eight officials.
There is someone outside. He selects officials based on their own abilities and does not care about their romantic affairs.
However, when it comes to indulging in concubines, Sun Changping is not confused, but is being led by a woman. Officials in the court do not even care about the most basic rules and propriety, how can they get things done?
"The position of Sun Changping's heir apparent is abolished. Later, Marquis Sun will look for a suitable heir apparent and hand him over."
With just one word, Sun Changping's position as the heir apparent was gone, and he would never be associated with him for the rest of his life. The Marquis had a headache and his heart was bleeding. This was the future Marquis he had devoted so much effort to teach. If it hadn't been for such an accident.
, Sun Changping can at least ensure the prosperity of the Marquis Mansion for another hundred years.
The woman made a mistake. The Marquis only regretted that his methods were too soft and he should have tortured Tang Hui'an to death long ago.
The Marquis knelt down and accepted the order.
The emperor looked at the county prince, "I have thought carefully about the information you gave me a few days ago. Prince Jian's youngest son was born weak, and a Taoist priest said it would be best to foster him in another family. Later I will have the child sent to him.
"
Prince Jian is the emperor's younger brother, and the prince knew this would be the outcome as early as when he submitted the document. He was just a bastard, and if he stayed in the prince's palace, such a rare title as a title would definitely not be his turn.
The prince knelt down and thanked him.
When leaving the palace, the marquis of Zhenguo had a grudge against the prince and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
The prince was still angry. The two in-laws who once got along well now looked at each other with disgust, and even the harmony in the scene was gone.
Qi Yaoyao was dissatisfied when she learned about this result. What she wanted was for Tang Hui'an to die, preferably by Sun Changping himself. She didn't want him to be in love with each other and hide their identities to stay together. She
I was so filled with hatred that I simply took the money and asked people to search for these two people all over the world.
With the two families in such a quarrel, it was natural that they could not get married. The Marquis personally wrote a letter, saying that he had failed to teach his son well and was ashamed of the emperor's trust. He also said that such a son was not worthy of a girl from the county prince's palace, and begged the emperor to dissolve their engagement.
The prince also had no intention of getting married, and the marriage was settled smoothly.
Soon, Qi Yaoyao learned that she was going to marry to the south of the Yangtze River. The first time she was tempted, she met a bastard like Sun Changping. She was quite resistant to the marriage. However, she did not reject it outright and talked to the county.
The king negotiated the conditions. He wanted her to marry well, so he sent more people to find Sun Changping.
The prince asked his granddaughter to marry to the south of the Yangtze River. He said it was for Qi Yaoyao's good, but in fact it was also for his own sake. He didn't want Qi Yaoyao to stay in the capital and cause trouble to the prince's palace. He said he was thinking about Qi Yaoyao, but he actually felt a little guilty. Therefore, he didn't
Why did you hesitate before agreeing to help find someone?
Sun Changping was young and had already gone to other places to run errands several times. However, Tang Hui'an was poisoned and was kicked by the Marquis before. He was reluctant to let her suffer, so he didn't go far.
Lived in a small, hidden village on the outskirts of the country.
The advantage of being so close is that the news from the capital is as close to your ears as you can know it at any time if you want. As a result, Sun Changping soon learned that he was no longer the heir apparent, and that crazy woman Qi Yaoyao was still looking for him everywhere.
he.
As a court official, the crime of allowing an extramarital wife to hurt his wife can be a big or small crime. It was not that Sun Changping did not want to admit the crime, but he wanted to find a suitable opportunity, such as making meritorious service for his crime, or first having meritorious service before going to the emperor to plead guilty.
In this way, this matter should be easily revealed. Anyway, he will never be dragged to the emperor in embarrassment as a sinner to be punished.
The two of them hid deeper and usually lived in seclusion.
As the days passed, Tang Hui'an's health improved. The two of them were alone together without outsiders disturbing them. Such a peaceful life was what Sun Changping had always wanted.
Of course, it would be better if no one outside was looking for them like a criminal.
If Sun Changping wanted to hide away and live a warm life, it would depend on whether Chu Yunli was willing to do so. Ten days later, just as Qi Yaoyao was about to leave for Jiangnan, she suddenly learned of the two's destination.
She really wanted to go find the two of them to settle the score in person, but her reason told her that she could not defeat Sun Changping, so she reported herself to the official.
As a sinner registered before the emperor, the Yamen responded immediately. When Sun Changping realized something was wrong, the officers and soldiers had already rushed to the door.
He couldn't hide at all, and he was afraid that the officers and soldiers outside would break in and hurt Tang Hui'an. After weighing the pros and cons, he took Tang Hui'an and walked out.
As an official supporting a concubine, the emperor directly dismissed Sun Changping from his post. As a concubine, Tang Hui'an committed a murderous attack on the principal wife. He should have been severely punished and executed according to law.
Tang Hui'an felt she couldn't bear such a heavy crime. She did want to kill someone, but didn't the medicine go into Qi Yaoyao's mouth?
Attempted murder, why should she be charged as a murderer?
The emperor valued the abilities of the officials themselves, but this did not mean that he could tolerate those officials having wives. He deliberately used this matter to scare the monkeys, and the effect was good. Three days later, the women in the officials' houses outside were either taken back to the house.
Or be sent away far away.
The emperor was very satisfied with the consequences.
But Sun Changping felt particularly uncomfortable. He really didn't expect that the emperor would be so strict. Even though he had known that he was loyal to the emperor and patriotic since he was a child, he also felt a little resentful towards the emperor in his heart. Of course, the one he hated most was Qi Yaoyao.
I heard that Qi Yaoyao was going to be sent to other places, so she married into a wealthy businessman's family in the south of the Yangtze River. As the daughter of a county owner, Qi Yaoyao would be like an official marrying a princess if she went to a merchant's home.
Dare to offend.
Tang Hui'an was about to die. How could Sun Changping let the person who harmed her live a peaceful life?
Therefore, Qi Yaoyao's motorcade was stopped just a hundred miles out of the capital.
She knew that her future husband's family was a wealthy businessman from the south of the Yangtze River, and that he was a good-looking man. Before she went out, she had seen the portrait. The prince also assured her that no one would dare to offend her when she got there, and even the elders in the family would be polite.
With all these things, Qi Yaoyao has some expectations for the future.
But the journey was too bumpy. Her injuries had not yet healed. After struggling for a long time, most of her longing for the future was gone. She just wanted to rush to the next town and have a good rest.
The carriage suddenly stopped, and her head hit the wall. Qi Yaoyao suddenly became furious, opened the curtain, and yelled, "Why did you drive the carriage?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the coachman disappeared from sight. Qi Yaoyao took a closer look and saw that she was surrounded by towering trees. Seven or eight men in black had already restrained the people escorting her. She was shocked, knowing that she was in danger.
The gangsters who got into the robbery were frightened and shouted inwardly: "Do you know who I am? Someone tried to poison me before. I didn't even touch the medicine. The person who poisoned me will have to pay for my life. This is the emperor."
I personally gave the order. If you don’t want to die, leave as soon as possible. I will pretend that this has never happened."
When the leader heard this, his eyes became more stern, and without saying much, he waved his hand.
The man in black raised his sword, and the guards who were knocked to the ground were all splashed with blood, and they died in an instant. Qi Yaoyao had never seen so much blood since she was a child, nor had she seen so many people killed in front of her.
After separation, he rolled his eyes in fear, his body went limp and he fainted.
When she woke up again, it was dark outside. Qi Yaoyao moved and felt aches all over her body, and then she remembered what happened during the day.
She met a robber
Those people killed more than a dozen guards in the blink of an eye. They were real desperadoes. Qi Yaoyao's eyes were filled with unspeakable fear, and her eyes subconsciously glanced around in the darkness, trying to find a way to escape.
"woke up"
A familiar male voice came from the darkness with a slight hoarseness. Qi Yaoyao was startled again. She looked towards that place in horror, and sure enough she saw a slender man sitting there in the hazy night.
Just by hearing this voice, she knew who it was. She once dreamed of having this voice ring next to her pillow, but now, she just wished that she had never met this man in her life.
"Sun Changping"
"It's hard for the girl to still remember me." As he spoke, the candles in the room lit up.
Qi Yaoyao saw Sun Changping holding a candlestick at a glance. He was still so handsome and handsome, but his expression was gloomy at this time, and his whole body was filled with an evil spirit.
To be honest, Qi Yaoyao already regretted it at this moment.
She shouldn't have fought with Tang Hui'an. If she had given up searching when Sun Changping gave up his position as heir apparent and took Tang Hui'an away from the capital, the two of them would not have reached the point where they are now.
Those things have already happened, and there is no point in regretting it. Qi Yaoyao knew in her heart that the most important thing at the moment was to save her own life. She forced out a smile and said, "I once regarded you as my future god, and I have forgotten that no one else can."
I will forget you. Prince, can you "untie me first"
Before he finished speaking, Sun Changping pulled out a dagger, approached her slowly, and said condescendingly, "Thanks to you, I am no longer the heir apparent. I was reduced to a white body by you, and my family was almost destroyed. With such a vicious woman like you, how can I be so cruel?"
What can lead to a good life?”
The blade flashed under the candlelight, and Qi Yaoyao was so frightened that she kept moving back.
Sun Changping grabbed her collar, "Don't worry, I won't kill you today." After saying this, he stabbed her waist and abdomen with the dagger in his hand.
Qi Yaoyao screamed in pain.
Sun Changping slowly pulled a piece of cloth to bandage her wound and said, "From today on, I will stab you every day, but I will not let you die. On the day of Hui'an's execution, whatever suffering she suffered, you will suffer the same."
bitter"
After he finished speaking, he rolled up a piece of cloth and stuffed it into her mouth.
Qi Yaoyao couldn't scream anymore, she was so frightened that she was shaking all over. She admitted that she was really blind. There was probably only one person as crazy and unclear as Sun Changping in the entire capital, but she was singled out.
.
The prince soon learned of the attack on Qi Yaoyao. The guards were killed all over the place. The carriage was on fire. There were two female corpses inside. One of them was Qi Yaoyao's personal maid. It seemed that she was burned after death.
Wu Zuo recognized her teeth. But Qi Yaoyao seemed to have been burned to death in a fire, her whole body was burnt to char, and she could not be recognized at all.
But the guard and the maid are both dead, so Qi Yaoyao must be in bad luck.
Even though he knew there was little hope, the king still sent people to search everywhere. Zhou Yemiao cried until her eyes were swollen. At one moment she hated herself for agreeing to marry her daughter into the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, and at the next moment she regretted letting her go to the south of the Yangtze River alone.
Mother and daughter have been dependent on each other for many years. For a long time, Zhou Yemiao managed to survive because of her daughter. Now that she is gone, one can imagine the blow to her. After one night, Zhou Yemiao
He even developed a high fever.
The county prince was worried about his daughter's condition, and there was a new child who needed to be taken good care of. He also had to bring "Qi Yaoyao" back for burial. With all this fuss, his already poor body collapsed completely, and he also fell down.
Zhou Yemiao stood up with strength, helped settle the child, and invited a doctor to treat her father. The doctor said that once the prince's body collapsed, he might not be able to survive for long. She blamed herself and felt uncomfortable. At this moment, she hoped
There is someone who can help me.
Guan Haiquan appeared at this time, and he thought this was an opportunity.
Zhou Yemiao had a thought for a moment. Even though Guan Haiquan was a fake heir apparent in the Prince's Palace, what he learned was true. If he was here, the chaos in the Prince's Palace would be stopped, and she wouldn't have to be so worried.
However, this man is trying to take advantage of her. What happens after this time?
She suddenly remembered Yang mugwort who lived in the suburbs. Guan Haiquan had learned a lot, but Yang mugwort was not bad either. After leaving the county prince's palace, his business was booming. He won over the people in the city by himself.
Even many officials did not dare to look down upon her. No matter how they viewed Yang Aicao in their hearts, they were always polite to her on their faces.
Zhou Yemiao also vaguely heard that Yang Aicao's two sons are very knowledgeable. When they finish in the spring, they are likely to be selected as scholars. With so much financial support from her, it will only be a matter of time for the two brothers to become officials.
In the past few years, having a good relationship with such a person has been beneficial to the prince's palace.
As a result, Chu Yunli in the suburbs received a letter from the county prince's palace.
In fact, she was not willing to help the prince, but she also understood that Zhou Yemiao could not support so many things in the prince's palace. In this troubled time, if she did not help, Guan Haiquan's wish would be fulfilled.
Just to prevent him from being complacent, Chu Yunli had to make this trip.
Furthermore, no matter what Yang Aicao thinks about the Prince's Mansion, in the eyes of people all over the capital, she has received favors from the Prince's Mansion. If she doesn't help at all at this time, she will inevitably be accused of being coldhearted.
She doesn't care about these reputations, but Yang Ai Cao does, and the three Guan Yunnan siblings have to be trapped by rumors.
Therefore, Chu Yunli went to the county prince's mansion.
As soon as she appeared at the door, Guan Haiquan's face turned dark and he asked, "The Prince's Palace has nothing to do with you anymore, what are you going to do?"
Chu Yunli deliberately stabbed him and said funnyly, "It sounds like it has something to do with you. After all, I am the guest invited by the master. How about you?"
