Chapter 457: Finally Wake Up and Face Reality
Concubine Hui threw the paper at Wu Zheng's face.
"Look for yourself, you idiot. See how they have conspired to murder you and killed your parents over the years."
At this moment, Madam Wu wished she could slap herself in the face.
She left this behind to prevent Hong Zhong from wanting to kill her. After all, Hong Zhong had a vicious temper.
He was so cruel that he could even strangle his own daughter to death, let alone her, his grandmother who was a generation apart.
The first child that Hong Zhong's wife gave birth to was not a son but a daughter.
In order to make Yunhai a true member of the Wu family.
Hong Zhong strangled the baby girl to death and told his wife that she had given birth to a son.
He also said to his wife, "You and I are about to rush to the border. If the child comes with us, whether he can survive the journey is another matter."
"The conditions at the border are extremely harsh. To prevent the child from suffering with us, I have decided to swap this child with Chen's newly born eldest son."
She was waiting nearby at that time.
Her granddaughter-in-law, who was of noble birth, didn't want to agree at first.
Wu Hongzhong specifically exaggerated the harsh living conditions at the border.
Her granddaughter-in-law agreed with great reluctance. In fact, she didn't know that the daughter she gave birth to with all her life had been strangled to death by Wu Hongzhong long ago.
Chen Zhao finally understood why Madam Wu had just said that Wu Yunhai and Wu Lan'er were siblings from the same mother.
Wu Hongzhong had a mistress behind his wife's back, and strangled his and his wife's biological daughter to death for the sake of the mistress's child.
He is truly a sinister and vicious person.
Wu Zheng picked up the paper from the ground.
He was familiar with the handwriting on it; it belonged to his grandmother and brother.
He read it carefully from the beginning.
The more he looked down, the more his hands trembled and the paler his face became.
When he saw the end, Wu Zheng covered his head and screamed in pain.
"Why, why do you do this to me? Why do you do this to my parents, my children, and my wife!"
He raised his tear-stained face, overwhelmed by endless pain.
Wu Zheng looked straight at Madam Wu.
"Am I not respectful enough to you?"
"Aren't my parents good enough to you?"
"Why are you so cruel? First you killed my mother, and then you killed my father."
"He also conspired with Wu Hongzhong to drug me and set a trap to paralyze me for life."
"Ever since she married me, Chen has been respectful to you because of me. Why do you keep harming her and my child again and again?"
"Why?"
Wu Zheng couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out.
He always treated this vicious woman as his own grandmother and his cousin Wu Hongzhong as his own brother.
When Wu Hongzhong was young, he was neither good at literature nor martial arts, so it was he who brought Wu Hongzhong into the military camp.
It was he who used his countless military exploits to buy Wu Hongzhong an opportunity to stand out in front of the other soldiers.
It was he who led Wu Hongzhong step by step and made him the deputy general in the army. Apart from him as the commander-in-chief, Wu Hongzhong was the most powerful.
Later, his lower body was paralyzed and he could no longer go to the battlefield.
He used his life-saving grace to the emperor in exchange for the opportunity to let Wu Hongzhong be the commander-in-chief of the border.
He always thought that Wu Hongzhong was a good person and was as loyal to the emperor as he was.
It's all his fault, it's all his fault!
He was regarded as his biological brother by Wu Hongzhong, and this vicious woman whom he respected as his real grandmother.
He killed his parents and left him disabled for life.
They also took Feng'er away.
Thinking of the suffering Feng'er endured at the border, Wu Zheng wished he could kill himself.
If he hadn't been stupid, Wu Hongzhong would never have had the chance to become a border general in his life.
If he hadn't been caught off guard, his Feng'er wouldn't have been replaced.
The lady will not have a miscarriage.
Chen Zhao picked up the paper that Wu Zheng had dropped on the ground again due to his excitement.
Started to look at it.
Duke Xie and Xie Yuheng on the side hurried over.
The old emperor coughed lightly, signaling them not to just look at it themselves.
As the emperor, he hasn't even read what's written on it.
What a clueless bunch of people.
Shen Zhao immediately understood and handed the paper to His Majesty.
Duke Xie and Xie Yuheng saw the critical moment and hurried over, standing on tiptoe, watching from behind the emperor with great difficulty.
Xie Yuheng couldn't help but sigh.
"He's really vicious. The whole family was almost killed by this old guy Wu Hongzhong."
“It’s almost extinct!”
"Pa..." Duke Xie slapped Xie Yuheng on the head.
This damn kid is not smart when he should be smart, and not clever when he should be smart.
Now that he said this, wasn't he stabbing Wu Zheng and the Imperial Concubine in the heart?
Xie Yuheng rubbed his head, which was hurt by his father's beating, with a wronged look on his face.
He didn't say anything wrong.
People are not allowed to speak the truth.
The old emperor and Concubine Hui in front of him stiffened when they heard Xie Yuheng's muttering.
Concubine Hui was already in agony because of being murdered by someone, and now she heard the flesh falling from her body saying that their lineage was almost extinct, and she almost vomited blood.
She glanced at the old emperor with resentment. What a terrible thing he had given birth to!
Madam Wu and Wu Lan'er knew they couldn't escape, so they both fell to the ground.
Wu Lan'er suddenly slapped Madam Wu like crazy.
"It's all your fault, you old fool!"
"Why do you keep those things?!"
"Why don't you just die when you're so old? You want to live and bring disaster to us!"
Wu Lan'er slapped Madam Wu in the face again and again.
If she hadn't kept those letters, they wouldn't be so passive and desperate now!
After all, Madam Wu was old, and she could no longer bear Wu Lan'er's torture.
She was breathing heavily.
"Stop...stop hitting me...let go..."
Wu Lan'er had already become furious, and the more Madam Wu begged for mercy, the harder she beat her.
"Help...Wuwu..." Old Madam Wu was furious.
She believed that she had treated Wu Lan'er well, giving her status, wealth and a luxurious life.
Raise her like a baby.
How could Wu Lan'er treat her like this?
The more he thought about it, the angrier Madam Wu became. The corners of her mouth began to twist, and her body stiffened slightly.
In this situation, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Madam Wu was about to have a stroke.
It’s a pity that no one at the scene stopped Wu Lan’er from torturing Old Madam Wu.
Until a smell of urine came.
Concubine Hui finally spoke.
"Wu Lan'er, stop it!"
Wu Lan'er refused to listen and continued to torture Old Madam Wu.
"If this old woman dies, you will be buried with her."
Concubine Hui spoke again, and Madam Wu's raised hand froze in mid-air.
She doesn't want to die.
Wu Lan'er crawled on her knees and came close to Concubine Hui.
"Empress Lan'er did nothing. All the bad things were done by that old man."
"Please, Madam, spare Lan'er for the sake of her exposing that old man."
As she spoke, Wu Lan'er kowtowed to Concubine Hui.
She raised her bloody head and crawled towards where Shen and the others were.
