Chapter 875 875: Farce
However, after two days of rejoicing in his misfortune, he discovered that a fire had burned himself, and the person who set the fire was his wife.
After Wu Xian and Shen Tang broke up, he did not return directly to Tianhai. Instead, he led his troops to take a detour to Yiru to take over Zhang He's political legacy. News of Zhang He's death reached Yiru, and the local ambitious families were ready to take action. , secretly incited the people in the territory to cause chaos, and many people fled after hearing the news. Judging from their experience accumulated in troubled times, war is about to break out in Yiru territory again!
In addition to the aristocratic family, Zhang He's old tribe who stayed behind were also gearing up. Under the banner of supporting the young master and avenging the old master, they integrated their troops and prepared to become the new master of Yiru. Naturally, Wu Xian would not give them a chance and went over in a mighty manner. The fire was put out.
It didn't take more than half a month, and it seemed to have calmed down.
Those undercurrents that are invisible to the naked eye?
Wu Xian was just waiting to lure the snakes out of their holes and catch them all in one fell swoop.
After completing these tasks, he returned in triumph with his elite confidants.
Tianhai had not changed much from before he left. Wu Xian just sat down and took a sip of hot tea. He was about to summon the people who stayed behind in Tianhai to find out what happened during his absence when his ears caught a commotion. As a brave warrior, Wu Xian's ears were naturally strong, and he keenly noticed that the movement outside was approaching in his direction, so he put down the bowl.
He cast a look at the bodyguard beside him.
After a while, the guard reported back, looking a little troubled: "Master, outside are General Zhao's family, wife and children."
[General Zhao’s family members, wives and children?]
The nonchalance on Wu Xian's face turned into stunned silence for a moment.
He tried not to think about Qin Li and the others these days, but every time he discussed with his staff, he still subconsciously looked at Qin Li's position. Suddenly he was reminded by his personal guards, and he remembered that Zhao Feng and his family were still in Tianhai. Wu Xian feels guilty towards Qin Li and others, and since their new master is Shen Youli, he will naturally not make things difficult for women and children. Alas, let's be respectful to each other, so that we can get together and part ways easily.
Wu Xian adjusted his mentality.
"Send someone to invite Mrs. Zhao over."
He didn't notice the strange expression on the lady beside him.
Not long after, a group of people filed in.
Wu Xian had met Zhao Feng's wife and had an impression of Zhao Feng's three sons. Even though he had a very good memory, he could hardly recognize the mother and son in front of him, let alone the old and young who came with them. Unkempt, but also unkempt.
His face turned yellow, as if he hadn't eaten enough for a long time.
Wu Xian's raised hand stayed where it was, and the corners of his raised lips were stiff. After a while, he asked: "What are you..."
His eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one and fell on the guards.
The personal guard also just came back and I don’t know what happened.
Wu Xian, whose help for help was ineffective, could only solve the problem by himself. He quickly stood up and helped up the people who were bowing down: "No need to be polite, no need to be polite. What happened to my sister-in-law and nephew?"
Mrs. Zhao Feng stayed away calmly.
He said neither humble nor arrogantly: "I'm here to say goodbye."
Even though Wu Xian was mentally prepared, he was stunned for a moment.
As soon as he came back, and the mats were not even warmed by his buttocks, Zhao Feng's family brought people over to say farewell, making it clear that they would come as soon as they heard the news. Why are you in such a hurry? As the saying goes, it's all about acting.
He had been in love with Zhao Feng for several years, so he should be given time to make preparations, such as holding a practice banquet and asking him to send people to escort them safely to Zhao Feng.
He and Qin Li and others were disgraced.
I still need to keep the last bit of fig leaf, right?
Wu Xian did not agree to Mrs. Zhao Feng's request. Instead, he made an excuse saying that he had just come back and had too many things to do. He asked her to wait patiently for two more days before sending someone to escort them away. Even if Mrs. Zhao Feng refused his request, he asked her to wait patiently for another two days.
kindness--
"Brothers and sisters, this can't be done! You and your nephew are both close relatives of Dayi. Now that it's not peaceful outside, you are on your way rashly. If something goes wrong, where do you want me to find someone to compensate Dayi? You can relax for now and wait.
Just two days!" Wu Xian's last words contained a bit of pleading and imperceptible toughness. Mrs. Zhao Feng also knew the priorities and had no choice but to give up.
certainly--
She didn't expect her farewell to be successful.
If that's the case, why did she make this trip again?
Haha, before leaving, she glanced at the Madam who was fidgeting vaguely from an angle that Wu Xian couldn't see, and smiled.
After the old, weak, women and children left, Wu Xian sent people to deliver tables of big fish and meat, and boxes of nourishing medicinal materials. He tried to raise them to be plump and beautiful in the shortest time! Every one of them had a sallow complexion, and some people didn't know.
Thinking that he had deducted the salary of his former favorite general and treated Zhao Feng's family harshly. After making these arrangements, Wu Xian called people over in front of the principal wife.
Hurry up and sort things out.
Thinking of this, Wu Xian narrowed his eyes dangerously - even though he hasn't said anything since Qin Li took people to change jobs, it doesn't mean that he has forgotten it. He just doesn't want to alert others by not mentioning it. Taking advantage of this time, some people are cheating.
Things are also cooked.
I still can't forget the humiliation of being kept in the dark.
Wu Xian, who was concentrating on the matter, didn't notice that Mrs. Zheng was pale and sitting on pins and needles at the moment. No, maybe he noticed it, but he just didn't care, and at the same time, he was waiting for the other party to take the initiative to speak. The last thing Wu Xian wanted was for her to be involved.
Obviously, his idea was an extravagant hope.
When the last trace of the afterglow disappeared on the horizon, the sound of splashing water could be heard from time to time in the courtyard. A large basin of water was poured down, and it instantly merged with the blood on the stone slabs. The sweeper held the broom in both hands and was busy cleaning, and from time to time there were corpses one after another.
They were taken out of the house. The faces of these corpses looked familiar, and they were still dripping with blood when they were taken out.
Hot, soft, and fresh.
The cleaning boy didn't dare to take another look.
Brush - brush - brush -
The sound of brooms sweeping up blood was very lively at this moment.
It was lively outside the hospital, but the air inside the hospital was solemn and suffocating! The always dignified and elegant lady was lying on the ground, with messy hair and heavy breathing. Of course, there were no scenes inappropriate for children at the scene, and her collapse was only because of Wu Xian
Dozens of people were executed in front of her, all of whom had interests related to her and her family...
Wu Xian killed them, his attitude was very clear.
Madam Zheng only has one idea in her mind——
It's over, he's serious!
Wu Xian looked down at the wife who had vented her emotions, and laughed angrily: "After many years of marriage, I didn't know that my wife had so many complaints and dissatisfaction in her heart, so much so that you would kill her husband! You made it easy for them.
door, have you ever thought that the person who died was Zhao Feng's subordinate? Zhao Feng is my beloved general? He is not just an ordinary subordinate officer, but also a general who has gone through life and death for your husband! As the mistress, you help others
Concealing information and plotting against relatives of generals, how do you want outsiders to view you?"
"If it were you, wouldn't you feel cold?"
Wu Xian knew Mrs. Zheng's plan and sold her favors to win over Wu Xian's generals and their families to support her son and her natal family. In comparison, Qin Li and his family were helpless and even ignored her several times to please her.
She will naturally be displeased if you try to win over him.
If Qin Li and his family can't be won over, forget it.
When Qin Li's family clashed with Tianhai's family, who could be won over, there was no need to think about which side was favored. Mrs. Zheng did not frame her, she just chose to ignore the Zhao family's request for help, watched things happen with a cold eye, and suppressed the relevant matters.
information……
As the mistress, she has this right.
Coupled with the tacit cooperation of other families...
"Are you disappointed that I came back alive?"
Wu Xian's words successfully angered Mrs. Zheng.
"Wu Zhaode, you are so slanderous!"
After killing so many people, Wu Xian became much calmer and said: "Apart from this reason, I can't think of your purpose for doing this. If I die, everything will belong to our children. But have you ever thought about it, if I die?
Now, who will help you suppress these people? The two children have not grown up enough to be independent, so who can you rely on? Those people from your mother's family?"
He was really angry before.
At this moment, he calmed down and guessed one by one: "...or are my useless brothers promising something and willing to come forward to help? If I don't die, in the end these family properties will belong to our children. What are you panicking about?"
Seeing that Wu Xian was getting more and more arrogant as he talked, and some even guessed her secret thoughts, he couldn't help but interrupt: "Wu Zhaode!"
Seeing that Wu Xian was getting more and more arrogant as he talked, and some even guessed her secret thoughts, he couldn't help but interrupt: "Wu Zhaode!"
Wu Xian stopped talking and just looked at her.
She calmed down her turbulent breathing and stood up with her hands on her hands.
"Don't fabricate these unfounded charges for me. Although you are disloyal, I have never had the idea of harming you... I knew what happened in Zhao Feng's house long ago, but what can I do?
?Are you going to offend the Tianhai family and harm my son for a few unrelated people so that you can make way for your sons? I tell you, you are dreaming!"
Wu Xian looked at Mrs. Zheng in astonishment.
"I have never had the idea of promoting a concubine."
He himself was victorious in fights with his brothers and knew the consequences, so he did not consider several concubine sons as his successor.
Even if he wanted to consider it, the child's age wouldn't allow it.
"Do you know it yourself?"
But the wife didn't want to hear his explanation.
To be continued...
