Chapter 26 The real chill is not the quarrel



The old Duke fell seriously ill and almost died. Even the Emperor was alarmed, so several old ministers in the court came to visit him. When the time came, the old Duke personally saw them off.

When passing by the backyard, Lord Taishi Wang was pointing at the rockery behind him, saying that it had the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. The next second, the rockery collapsed.

In full view of the crowd, the rockery shook a few times, and then shook its fur wildly like a dog that had been drenched in water. As it shook, the rockery turned into a pile of dirt.

Then, in a pile of dirt, two naked men and women stood there...

The scene is really...

Duke Dingguo stroked his beard and asked doubtfully, "This woman looks like..."

The old Duke quickly covered Duke Ding's mouth with his hand, preventing him from speaking any further.

However, the always talkative Grand Historian Wang had already taken out his pen and paper and quickly wrote down, "In the winter of the thirty-third year of the Jianxi reign, the concubine of the Duke of Zhenguo indulged in a secret affair in the rockery. When she was discovered, her cheeks were as rosy as peaches and plums, and she was naked, with only her emerald green bellyband barely covering her round waist... That lunatic..."

The old Duke closed his eyes in despair.

The real chill is not the quarrel...

The ministers lowered their heads and thought about all the sad things in their lives.

The old Duke took a deep breath to calm himself down.

He originally wanted to handle the matter in a low-key manner, but ever since he heard the evildoer's inner thoughts last time, he was skeptical and decided to simply keep his hands off the ball.

If it's fake, then forget it.

If it was true, he would let the child be born first, then sell Zhou Hui, beat the adulterer to death, and drive the child to another courtyard. This way, no one would know that he was cuckolded...

now……

Who doesn’t know?

The old Duke was so angry that his hands were shaking, especially after he saw the servant carrying Shangguan Qingyue out of the pile of dirt...

It’s this evil creature again!

On the surface, the old Duke looked at Shangguan Qingyue expressionlessly, but in fact, there were several mouths in his head scolding her at the same time!

Shangguan Qingyue was covered in dirt. When the servant carried her to the old Duke, he said, "Master, it's the young lady!"

The old Duke had no time to care about her. There were two adulterers waiting for him to deal with on the other side. The old Duke pointed at the two people in front of him and said with gritted teeth, "Drag these two away and beat them to death with sticks!"

Zhou Hui and Sun Changxian were already scared silly, especially when they saw the old Duke just now. Sun Changxian was so scared that he wet his pants. When he heard the sound, he seemed to have lost his soul, holding his clothes without any reaction.

Instead, Zhou Hui knelt down and begged for mercy, crying, "Master, please spare my life! Hui'er is pregnant with your child! It's my cousin!"

Zhou Wei's eyes rolled, and she hardened her heart, intending to put all the blame on Sun Changxian.

"My cousin raped me! Master, you have to stand up for Hui'er!"

The old Duke narrowed his eyes, and although his expression was unpleasant, upon closer inspection, he was actually somewhat satisfied.

This whore is smart!

It is better for a concubine to be cuckolded because she is raped than to be cuckolded because she has an affair.

The old prince was just about to take advantage of the situation and punish the adulterer when he heard the curious voice of Duke Dingguo.

"Hey, little doll, what are you pinching?"

Shangguan Qingyue was covered in dirt, so he didn't care whether he was dirty or not. He simply sat down, grabbed a handful of dirt, and started making clay dolls again.

Hearing Duke Dingguo's voice, everyone looked over. Shangguan Qingyue was not stingy and held up a finished doll to show them.

Everyone applauded and praised him.

Duke Dingguo was especially happy after watching such a good show today. When he saw Duke Zhenguo's mute granddaughter, he stopped laughing and praised her instead.

"The young lady is really clever and skillful..."

Shangguan Qingyue was praised and became very motivated, and made another one in a moment.

Two clay dolls, one standing and the other kneeling with a big belly.

The little guy stood up after pinching the dolls, and under everyone's curious gaze, he put the two dolls together...

The old Duke's vision suddenly went dark and he almost passed out.

Several ministers seemed to be hesitant to speak, and the attendants beside them could not help but take a few steps back, wishing they could escape from this awkward situation.

Duke Dingguo clenched his fists, filled with hatred, "It must be...it must be that the young lady saw some obscene things in there! Asshole!"

Several ministers went from watching the fun at first to now resenting the adulterous couple for polluting the pure flower of the Great Chu...

Lord Taishi Wang angrily held up his pen and said, "How dare you! Zhenguogong, why don't you punish these two bitches!"

Ning Anhou bent down and picked up Shangguan Qingyue. He snatched the clay doll from her hand without leaving a trace, hid it behind his back and crushed it, then comforted her: "Little Miss, be good and forget everything you just saw, okay? Grandpa Hou will buy you some candy..."

Shangguan Qingyue smiled slightly and nodded, looking particularly well-behaved and sweet.

Shangguan Qingyue was already pretty, and when Ning'an Hou saw that she was giving him such face, he liked her even more. He took out a silk handkerchief and wiped her dusty little face.

The old Duke looked at the "evil boy" acting cute beside him, and he was so angry that his heart was swollen and his eyes were red!

She, she, she!! She is a monster!!

She did it on purpose!! She did it on purpose to embarrass him!!

How can he live his life in the future?

Once Wang Hongyin, that big mouth, gets to know about this, all the chickens, ducks, geese, dogs and cats in the capital will know about it!!!

Wow--

The old Duke was almost unable to contain his emotions. He stared at Shangguan Qingyue's back and said with gritted teeth, "Monster...evil..."

Ning Anhou, with his sharp ears, heard this and quickly stopped him, "Duke Zhenguo, stop talking nonsense! His Majesty has already issued an order forbidding this. Anyone who dares to speak of evil in the land of Great Chu will be executed!"

I can’t even say it anymore… Where is justice…

The old Duke stretched out his hand tremblingly, pointing at Zhou Hui and Sun Changxian, "Drag these two away and beat them to death!"

On the opposite side, Zhou Hui and Sun Changxian were crying and wailing.

"yes……"

The servant took the order hesitantly.

Beaten to death? Why did the old Duke still look like he was about to cry?

Is this reluctance?

Duke Dingguo also saw it and patted his old friend on the shoulder, "Make a decisive decision. A woman like this is not worth your effort!"

Seeing this, Lord Taishi Wang took out a new brush and wrote, "The Duke of Zhenguo was deeply in love with his concubine. He couldn't help but shed tears after executing her. This is a lamentable feeling. What is love in this world? It makes people pledge their lives to each other..."

Old Duke: "..."

[Hahahahahahahahahaha burp]

After Zhao Ying fell ill, the old Duke also fell ill.

The imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau simply stayed in the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion.

Shangguan Shu was out, and Shangguan Zhu was on a business trip. Only Shangguan Dan was serving the old duke at his bedside.

At night, the old duke looked at the flickering candle flames, tears streaming down his face.

Why isn't he dead yet?

What's the point of him living in such humiliation?

Next to him, Shangguan Dan had been persuading people for a whole day and was a little tired. Seeing that the old Duke was in good health, he wanted to return to his own courtyard.

When he was about to leave, someone suddenly grabbed his arm.

Shangguan Dan turned around and saw the old Duke staring at him with bloodshot eyes.

"Find...find...a...mage...with profound skills...and bring him back!"
