The Husband I Snagged Halfway Is Off

With both parents deceased, Yu Tingwan lived under others' roofs, diligently working from dawn till dusk. Her maternal aunt was cruel, intending to sell her to a lecherous gentryman well past s...

305. Chapter 305 What is the Cripple Jumping Out For?

Chapter 305 What did the cripple do? They walked

forward and it was finally their turn.

Yu Tingwan took the incense handed over by the nanny sent by the queen, gave one to Wei Zhao first, and glanced ahead.

The coffin made of small-leaf red sandalwood looked really luxurious!!!

Yu Tingwan had seen many poor people in the countryside who could not afford coffins after their death, and could only wrap their bodies in straw mats and bury them in a pit dug on the mountain.

The funeral ceremony of the crown prince of the imperial city was really grand.

Just the various paper figures made of silk, the burial objects she saw outside, and the construction of the mausoleum that she could not see, the manpower and material resources consumed were countless.

Why not eat meat porridge.

Yu Tingwan calmly imitated the posture of Ning Suchan burning incense in front of her, and inserted the incense into the incense burner exactly.

Wei Zhaoze straightened up with difficulty and tried to stand up.

Ning Guohou and Ning Yunling hurriedly supported him to prevent him from falling.

"General Wei."

The nanny said quickly: "Just sit down, stop making trouble and don't get up. The prince will receive your kindness."

Yu Tingwan: ...

I did receive it, so I lay in the coffin.

Nanny: "Although the prince didn't wait for Ge Lao. If the team going to Ze County hadn't been intercepted and delayed for some time..., well, there's no need to mention it again. But the general's kindness is in your heart."

This is what the queen meant.

First, she mentioned that the team delivering the imperial edict was intercepted, and put the fire on the head of the fifth prince Ying Yin. This was said to the officials present.

The latter words were said to Wei Zhao.

Yes, if the prince consort's baby is a boy, it will be legitimate and orthodox, but after all, he is still young, and the fifth prince is extraordinary.

So the queen wants to be on good terms with Wei Zhao.

What she can think of, who among the people present has not thought of it?

Wei Zhao didn't want to be caught wrong: "Rituals cannot be abolished, so how can it be done."

He insisted on getting up, supported by Ning Yunling and Ning Guohou. The man was crooked and his face was pale.

"The crown prince and I have known each other since childhood."

Xiao Huaiyan came over at this time.

He rolled his eyes when he heard this.

Friendship?

The friendship that you, Wei Zhao, have always secretly made trouble for the crown prince?

Others may not know, but doesn't Xiao Huaiyan know it?

Wei Zhao looks upright, but he was the one who instigated five out of ten conflicts between the fifth prince and the crown prince!

But Wei Zhao would be the peacemaker.

And then add fuel to the fire!

Wei Zhao sighed: "After returning to the capital, I have not paid a visit to Your Highness due to my health. Now we are separated by life and death. These past few days, I have been particularly restless."

Yu Tingwan: ...

pretending.

Wei Zhao: "If possible."

Wei Zhao was loyal: "I would rather die than Your Highness."

Yu Tingwan: ...

after this, everyone present was very moved.

If someone else said this, it would be hypocritical.

But it was Wei Zhao who said it!

He must be sincere!

The maid's eyes were full of tears, and she bowed deeply to Wei Zhao.

The Second Prince's wife, who had just finished burning incense, was supported by a maid and could not stand the wind, so she wore thick clothes and was wrapped tightly. Seeing the maid's words and actions towards Wei Zhao, she pulled the corner of her mouth sarcastically, and tightened her hands under her sleeves again and again.

She walked out, but her body was weak, so she stopped for a while after walking five steps.

After leaving the mourning hall, she came to the side of the Second Prince.

The Second Prince stood in one place, and as long as

he didn't walk, you couldn't tell that his legs and feet were in trouble. There were not many people around him, only a few officials who saluted him when they passed by. Seeing the Second Prince's wife coming over, he lightly supported her waist.

"Be careful."

The Second Prince's wife raised her eyes: "Are you worried about me, my master?"

"What's the point of me being careful? I'm the one who's not feeling well, you don't care."

The second prince's face darkened instantly: "Are you blaming me?"

"You really can't protect me."

The second prince's wife was not afraid at all, and looked at the second prince's face.

"You didn't protect me when I had a miscarriage last time. Now that I've given birth to a child, how long can this child live? You may not be able to protect him."

After saying this, the second prince was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.

But this is the East Palace.

He could only endure it.

"Are you crazy?"

The second prince's wife looked calm: "I am indeed crazy!"

"But what can you do? It's difficult to walk, and the expenses of the mansion are all my dowry. You are not the second prince who used to be so glorious. Let alone your future, you still have to rely on your father-in-law in the future, right?"

This was very disrespectful.

But she said it anyway.

Even the name was changed.

The second prince's wife sneered: "I advise you not to have any thoughts that you shouldn't have. In the past, Master Gu was unwilling to marry his daughter to you. Now that Gu Wu's status is different, it is not certain that Master Gu will give you the girl he has raised for eighteen years as a concubine."

"It's enough to harm me, isn't it?"

Yu Tingwan, who was preparing to go to the side hall, couldn't hear the conversation from a distance. But she could see that the second prince's face was getting darker and darker. In the end, it was almost distorted.

The side hall is where rituals are performed.

Officials and female relatives have to go there. The huge side hall is divided into two by white silk cloth. The left side is the respected one, which is prepared for Emperor Ying Qian and officials, and the right side is for the empress and female relatives in the palace.

Therefore, Wei Zhao was pushed away by Ningguo Hou and Ning Yunling. Yu Tingwan followed obediently behind her aunt Ningguo Hou's wife and mother-in-law Ning Suchan, who were supporting Mrs. Ning.

Ning Suchan wanted to give her a few words of advice.

But the words on her lips were not spoken.

Although they didn't spend much time together, it was obvious that Yu knew her limits.

Someone pulled Yu Tingwan's sleeve.

She turned her head and saw Shen Zhiyi's face.

Yu Tingwan:?

Shen Zhiyi saw that no one was looking this way and the ritual hadn't started yet, so he pulled Yu Tingwan to a corner and whispered to her.

At first she felt a little uncomfortable.

"My mother and sister-in-law asked me to thank you."

Yu Tingwan:?

She hesitated: "You're welcome?"

Shen Zhiyi was silent for a moment.

"Don't you know what I have to thank you for?"

Yu Tingwan said innocently.

Shen Zhiyi: "Then what are you going to say!"

Yu Tingwan said softly: "Since you said so, I have to show some appreciation."

"Regarding the matter of Princess Jiashan arranging a kneeling pad for my sister-in-law."

Shen Zhiyi: "The deceased old man of the Lu family had shown some kindness to the Grand Tutor, so it is understandable that Princess Jiashan arranged a kneeling pad. The Shen family and the Gu family have no friendship, and Princess Jiashan... is not a kind person. She can do this only because I protected you a little when you bought jewelry at Jinluxuan that day."

Yu Tingwan: "Oh."

Shen Zhiyi said so much but didn't expect to get only one "oh".

There is no feeling yet.

Shen Zhiyi took a step closer.

"Are you really the daughter of the Gu family?"

"I just saw Gu Wu. She is usually arrogant. Just now she asked me about you and asked me if I am familiar with you and if she is sick."

Shen Zhiyi: "The second prince thought that her identity was fake and wanted to comfort her."

Yu Tingwan: "Second prince?"

Why did the cripple jump out?
