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...

Chapter 548: Brother, am I loyal enough? He

was still hesitant to speak.

Something was wrong.

Wei Zhao didn't know.

But...

He looked at Wei Fengyuan and kindly reminded: "Uncle, why don't you think about what you did in private, and come to ask me?"

Wei Fengyuan:...

He narrowed his eyes and his eyes fell on his brother and sister-in-law in front of him.

Finally, he spoke slowly.

"You... have a good father."

When the group got on the carriage of the Duke of Shun's Mansion.

The news of Ying Yi's death had already exploded in Shangjing.

People on the street were talking about it.

"Is that person really gone?"

"Then... the poor little prince, he lost his mother, and now even the only father who can protect him is gone."

"Hush, keep your voice down? What prince? He is clearly the son of a sinner."

Ning Suchan put down the curtain and said coldly: "It is true that the world is cold and indifferent. The death of King Yan and others... did not die with dignity. They were convicted of crimes and could not be washed away. Who still remembers his contributions to the Great Jin?"

"I don't know how many years Fu Yan can live."

But what can be done.

These people only look glamorous on the surface. Even if they want to help, they can't protect themselves with the imperial power on their heads.

Wei Fengyuan played with the dagger in his hand and sighed.

"Guizhi."

Wei Zhao looked over.

Wei Fengyuan leaned against the wall of the car: "When I die in a few days, you must cry miserably."

The death of King Yan was really embarrassing.

"I love you so much."

Ning Suchan's face was gloomy: "Why did my uncle curse himself?"

If Wei Fengyuan had something bad happen, Ning Suchan couldn't even think about what would happen next.

Wei Zhao: ? ? ?

Put it in the past, this doesn't seem like a steady uncle who would say it without thinking.

Wei Fengxing scolded: "Don't scare them."

He said to his wife and son in a gentle voice, let them be prepared.

Suchan, as the mistress of the house, must know what's going on. Although Guizhi is young, as a child of the Wei family, he should be tempered.

He knows.

"Just like... King Yan."

Wei Zhao heard this and raised his eyes slightly.

————

After the New Year.

The Wei army was urged by the emperor to go to the border again.

Going to the capital seemed normal, as if the death of the King of Yan did not leave too many waves.

But the court officials had a scale in their hearts, how could they not know that this matter was probably in accordance with the emperor's wishes.

Maybe... it was still the emperor's order.

How could they not sweat coldly behind their backs, saying that the emperor was cold-hearted and intolerant?

The days passed one by one.

Early in the morning, Wei Zhao went to the main courtyard to pay his respects to his parents, and then went out to the Imperial College.

The carriage was already waiting outside, and he leaned in.

But it stopped halfway through the journey, and someone blocked the way.

Then got in.

Xiao Huaiyan sat down casually: "I heard that there are new students coming to the Imperial College this time. They are the younger generation from the hometown of the pedantic old minister, Duke Xianguo,"

"I haven't had time to ask the details, but I heard that the man's surname is Jia, and he is five years older than you and me."

Wei Zhao said nothing.

Xiao Huaiyan: "In previous years, the Shunguo Mansion would go back to Yiling to worship their ancestors during the Spring Festival. Why didn't they go this time?"

Wei Zhao just glanced at him, told the driver to continue on the road, and lowered his head to read.

Xiao Huaiyan moved closer.

"Why haven't you gone out these days?"

"I looked for you, but you avoided me?"

Wei Zhao said indifferently: "I find you annoying."

Xiao Huaiyan: ???

No, I pissed you off!

However, he was too lazy to argue with Wei Zhao.

"Have you noticed anything unusual recently?"

Wei Zhao paused in turning the pages.

Could it be that the Loyal and Brave Marquis also told Xiao Huaiyan!

While thinking about it.

Xiao Huaiyan: "You know Princess Jiashan, the legitimate daughter of the Qingyuan Earl's Mansion and the niece of the Queen Mother."

Wei Zhao: ...

Sure enough, he was worrying too much.

"I know."

"The articles written by her husband are particularly good, and every word shows his deep mind."

But Gu Fuju was not appreciated for his talent, and his official career was not smooth.

However, Wei Zhao believed that such a person would sooner or later stand out in the officialdom.

"Speaking of her, what do you say about her husband?"

Xiao Huaiyan glanced at Wei Zhao.

"The Princess Jiashan used to be very arrogant, looked down on everyone, and rarely gave people face. After the New Year,

she became particularly approachable." "Just the other day, the wife of the Beijing Tongpan went to the gold shop to buy jewelry and accidentally bumped into her, but she didn't blame her."

"She even waved her hand and paid the wife of the Beijing Tongpan. She also walked around the shop three times, looked at the jewelry inside again and again, and finally left empty-handed."

"Whatever you say, none of them are worthy of her daughter. She was very disappointed by one of the best jewelry stores in Beijing."

Wei Zhao didn't care about this.

To him, she was just an insignificant person.

Wei Zhao said indifferently: "The Marquis of Zhongyong Mansion has no relationship with her, why do you pay attention to her?"

"What's the big deal?"

Xiao Huaiyan: "I've also been paying attention to that bastard Ying Zhi."

At this point, Xiao Huaiyan was very excited.

"He has been courting the daughter of the Yao family these days."

"The guy from the Yao family... was engaged to the prince of Yan before."

"The daughter of the Yao family doesn't care about him, but Ying Zhi is the one who rushes to her. Yesterday, he stopped someone and said something nonsense about wanting to marry her and getting the emperor to make an engagement. Didn't you see that the daughter of the Yao family turned black on the spot and told him to respect himself."

Wei Zhao was not interested in these things.

But Xiao Huaiyan kept talking.

"I heard that among the princes and grandchildren of the Ying family in the past generations, most of them were in their twenties, and they had too many women around them and were not restrained, so they were not good at sex." "

The emperor has been taking drugs for a long time anyway. To help with the fun."

"How old is Ying Zhi? If I remember correctly, he is the same age as you. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has not yet arranged for him to have a palace maid who knows about things, which shows that he has not yet fully developed. His bastard thing is not good enough, but he is quite curious about this kind of thing. He privately touched the maids serving in the house."

This made Xiao Huaiyan very embarrassed. After all, he is

the playboy

. He can't do it.   Wei Zhao thought

he was noisy .

"Have you said enough?" Xiao Huaiyan was puzzled.   "Why don't you want to listen every time I mention these things?"   Wei Zhao frowned and said in disgust: "Dirty words."   Xiao Huaiyan: "Don't you want to know why I know so much about the Ying family's future drug use?"   "I don't want to know."   Xiao Huaiyan rummaged in his sleeves and took out a gilded lotus pattern porcelain box that was not even as big as a palm.   "You have to know!"   "Guess what's hidden inside?"   Wei Zhao ran out of patience: "Get lost if you keep talking nonsense."   Xiao Huaiyan: ???   You're so heartless.   He told Wei Zhao loudly!   "I stole the medicine from the palace!"   Wei Zhao: ???   There was a flash of absurdity in his eyes. He   finally got interested.   "What are you going to do with it?"   Wei Zhao: "For your father?"   Wei Zhao rarely raised his eyelids and praised him faintly: "Filial son."   Xiao Huaiyan: ???   "Not for my father!"   "Wei Zhao!"   "This is for you!"   Wei Zhao: ???   He was about to laugh out of anger.   Xiao Huaiyan: "I'm worried about you."   "Anyway, Ying Zhi is interested in girls."   "Among our classmates of similar age, when they talked about their families arranging marriages for them early, they all smiled."   "Look at you, among the girls who went to Beijing, have you ever paid any attention to them?"   "Do you know who is the prettiest?"   You didn't pay attention! You even avoided them!   Is this normal!!!   "Do you know what it means to be gentle and considerate to women?"   Xiao Huaiyan stuffed the medicine into Wei Zhao's arms: "Save it for later."   "It will come in handy someday!"   "Tell me, brother, am I loyal enough?"
