Rong Xinghou's eyes flickered. He knew that Xiyue's approach to him was not simple and she also had her own little thoughts.
The assassination was also directed and acted by himself.
He knew everything when he saw Xiyue's face. It was easy for him to even send someone to investigate what happened back then.
It's just that she is his granddaughter who has been living away from home, and she has some friendship with the prince.
After the assassination, the prince had mentioned to him that he should make friends with Xiyue, saying that there was another force behind her.
It's all just mutual benefit.
If it were just this, he would know.
"Xiyue has done a great job in saving me. She will be recorded in the family tree of my Rong family on an auspicious day." Marquis Rongxing said nonchalantly.
He thought Fu Yuan was trying to sow discord and cursed in his heart.
This King of Qi is really meddling in other people's business.
[Su Xiyue was probably not abducted by the men in black, but rescued. The eldest prince must have done something to her, otherwise Su Xiyue would not have been absent all this time.
And this time, she rescued Rongxing Hou, and she must have wanted to return to the public as Rongxing Hou's granddaughter, in order to make the eldest prince afraid and afraid to act rashly again. 】
[I just don't know whether the group of black-clad men are the prince's men or another group.]
Su Yun was in deep thought.
Fu Yuan glanced at Su Yun from the corner of his eye. This little girl was not stupid.
We can guess something from these two sentences.
It's a pity that with him around, Su Xiyue is destined to not have the surname Rong or Su! Fu Yuan laughed nonchalantly, "Ha, this is really the biggest joke I've heard this year."
Rong Xinghou squeezed his palm hard, and the emerald green ring broke into two pieces.
A bastard whose biological father was unknown actually dared to laugh at him.
His tone was filled with anger.
"King Qi, be careful with your words."
Fu Yuan was arrogant, "Can't I just laugh? Rongxing Hou is too lenient."
"This is my family affair." Marquis Rongxing gritted his teeth, meaning that you, King Qi, are too lenient.
Fu Yuan leaned back in his chair and said sarcastically.
"Family affairs, I don't think so. Perhaps, it's the family affairs of Butler Qiao?"
Butler Qiao was so shocked that his legs went limp with fear.
He pinched his palms and knelt down.
"My Lord, my loyalty to you is evident to all."
"King Qi, please feel free to speak." Marquis Rongxing ignored Butler Qiao.
Fu Yuan clapped his hands, and an elderly nanny walked in from outside the door.
She is the wet nurse of Marquis Rongxing.
As soon as Ma Ma arrived, she knelt down.
She is already old, seventy-three this year, with all her hair silver, but she speaks with great energy.
"Your servant greets the Marquis, the King of Qi, and Lord Zhao."
"Ma Ma, tell me everything you know." Fu Yuan picked up the tea on the table and drank it.
Zhao Qingzhu opened his eyes wide, amazing, he really carries tea sets with him wherever he goes.
Qingyi has worked so hard.
Zhao Qingzhu looked at Qingyi with sympathy.
Qing Yi was puzzled and stood aside without paying any attention, but her eyes were all on Li.
Marquis Rongxing had been frowning since Nanny Ma came in.
If he remembered correctly, didn't Ma Ma suddenly die last year? Butler Qiao broke out in a cold sweat, his hair stood on end, and he had goose bumps all over his skin.
It's over. It's completely over.
He closed his eyes and lowered his head.
Nanny Ma did not stand up, but just knelt and looked at Marquis Rongxing.
She wiped her tears and began to tell her story.
"My Lord, that housekeeper Qiao is a piece of shit. It's because I found out that he has a special relationship with Concubine He that he wants to silence me."
"My lord, I am loyal to you. Please do not listen to the nonsense of this unknown person." Butler Qiao crawled to the side of Marquis Rongxing and kowtowed.
Rong Xinghou kicked Butler Qiao in the chest, causing him to fall over.
How could he not recognize the wet nurse he had lived with for decades? Logically, he should have called her wet nurse.
It goes without saying who to believe.
Rongxing Hou helped Ma Ma up, "Ma Ma, tell me in detail. What happened?"
At this moment, he didn't care that family disgrace should not be made public. Even if Nanny Ma didn't say it, the King of Qi, who was at odds with him, would tell it in public.
"Last May, I discovered that Housekeeper Qiao and Concubine He had an abnormal relationship, so I secretly watched the two of them. As expected, the two of them colluded with each other and did that shameful thing.
I was so angry that I wanted to go look for the Marquis, but I accidentally made a noise and disturbed the two of them.
Butler Qiao tied up the servant without saying a word and fed her poison to create the illusion of sudden death.
Fortunately, the King of Qi saved me, but unfortunately I was so severely poisoned that I couldn't speak, and the poison was only cured now.
I heard that the Marquis wanted to claim back Concubine He’s child.
I thought that I couldn't let the Marquis be kept in the dark, so I begged the King of Qi to take me to find the Marquis and tell him the truth.
Su Jianan is not your son, Lord Marquis, but the son of Butler Qiao!" At the end, Ma Ma was so angry that she was shaking.
Rongxing Hou's face changed, sometimes black and sometimes red.
He stepped hard on Butler Qiao.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
When death is imminent, Butler Qiao wants to take a few people with him.
He laughed maniacally.
“Hahaha~”
Rong Xinghou increased the force on his feet.
Butler Qiao grimaced in pain, "Do you think your son and daughter are also your children?"
[Oh my god, there is such a thing? Su Jianan is not the son of Rongxing Marquis, but I didn't expect that he is not even one of the sons and daughters of the mansion. ]
Su Yun was stunned.
These things are not described in the plot.
Fu Yuan was playing with the carved porcelain cup. It seemed that this girl didn't know everything.
Marquis Rongxing's face darkened.
When he was young, he indulged himself in excessive sexual activities, and the imperial physician said that it would be difficult for him to have children.
Unexpectedly, none of the sons and daughters in the mansion were his.
Rong Xinghou was so angry that he kicked Butler Qiao away.
“Ahem~”
Butler Qiao covered his chest and coughed up blood. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shouted loudly.
"You deserve it! You should have thought this would happen when you stole A-Yu."
He stood up, took out a dagger and stabbed it towards Rong Xinghou's heart, but was stabbed in the throat by a finger.
Butler Qiao fell backwards.
Rong Xinghou took out a silk handkerchief and wiped his hands expressionlessly.
"King of Qi, Zhao Zhaoyin, I have some important matters to attend to today, so I will take my leave first."
Without waiting for everyone's reaction, he took Ma Ma away.
Li knew that this was already the best outcome. If it weren’t for the benefactor who stood up for their Su family, things probably wouldn’t have turned out this way.
She pulled the family down to their knees.
"Thank you, King Qi, and thank you, Lord Zhao."
Fu Yuan blinked and turned into a naive boy again.
He came over and helped Li up.
"Grandma Li, there's no need for us to be so polite. I've always disliked Rong Xinghou's style, so it would be good to dampen his arrogance. But, I was really scared when Rong Xinghou killed someone just now..." As he spoke, his body trembled.
Li stood up and said that her benefactor seemed like a different person this time.
It turns out that we were all just holding on.
Although he was the King of Qi, he was ultimately still a king of a different surname.
I found it two years ago, so I don't have any power. Living in dire straits, what else can I do but hold on?
Li patted Fu Yuan's hand.
"It's really hard for my benefactor, don't be afraid."
Zhao Qingzhu looked at Qingyi and signaled with his eyes.
Master, do you have this hobby?
Qingyi ignored him and stood there like a wooden man.
Su Yun's legs were numb from kneeling, and because the distance was so close, she had no choice but to kneel.
[My grandma's IQ follows her looks. I believe whatever Fu Yuan says. He's a villain, how could he be afraid of a dead person...]
