Chapter 187 Eating Watermelon
What a big deal! My father couldn't tolerate my aunt and asked them to move out of Duke Dingguo's Mansion that same day.
Could it be that what she was worried about had happened, that those people were plotting against Big Brother?!
Chen Wan's heart was beating in her throat. It was too late now. She couldn't send Shanhu and Yinchuan back to help her find out. If it was too embarrassing, their father would issue a gag order, and they might not be able to find out.
Shen Wan is not a patient person. She can't wait to return to Duke Dingguo's Mansion tomorrow and wants to know right now.
Shen Wan went to find Xie Jingyu.
In the study, Xie Jingyu was reading a book. Seeing Shen Wan hurried over, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Shen Wan's eyes were filled with pleading, "Can you ask Chen An to help me go back to Duke Dingguo's Mansion to inquire about something?"
"Now?" Xie Jingyu asked.
Shen Wan nodded heavily, “Right now.”
Chen An jumped in through the window and asked, "What does the Crown Princess want me to know?"
Shen Wan said, "Find out why my father was so angry and drove my aunt and her family out of the Duke's Mansion..."
My father has always been tolerant of matters in the mansion. Since my aunt returned to Beijing, the old lady's condition has improved significantly. Especially since my aunt brought her daughter and niece with her. Unless my father is extremely angry, she would never do such a thing.
Being kicked out of the house is equivalent to breaking up.
If he doesn't figure it out, Chen Wan won't be able to sleep tonight.
Chen An took the order and left.
Xie Jingyu comforted Shen Wan, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
Normally, nothing serious should happen in the mansion. Otherwise, the news would have spread long ago.
It was already time for dinner, and the maid served the meal and asked them to go back to their room to eat.
However, Shen Wan was thinking about this in his heart, and his appetite was poor, so he barely ate half a bowl.
He put down his chopsticks and waited for another half hour before there was a knock on the window and Chen An jumped in.
At that time, Shen Wan was in the study. He immediately stood up and asked, "Did you find out?"
Chen An said, "Madam Liu helped Miss Liu San to drug the prince of Dingguo, which angered the Duke of Dingguo, so he drove them out of the house."
It is indeed the case!
Even though I was mentally prepared, I was still very angry when I heard it.
Shen Wan asked, "Is my eldest brother okay?"
Chen An said, "It's nothing serious. I just used the ice cellar to suppress the medicinal properties and got frostbite."
I still got infected.
Yes, they dared to take action in Duke Dingguo's mansion, so it must be a meticulous plan.
Although the eldest brother's martial arts skills are not as high as Xie Jingyu's, he is also strong and healthy. He never coughs all year round. However, he actually caught frostbite and cold. Shen Wanhuo was so scared that Madam Liu and Miss Liu San were both worried.
Seeing that Shen Wan was very angry, Chen An said, "Miss Liu San has tied herself up in knots. The Crown Prince's Consort doesn't need to be angry."
Wrapping oneself in a cocoon?
Shen Wan asked, "What happened to her?"
Chen An said, "Miss Liu San was also drugged for some reason and lost her virginity to the servant in the prince's courtyard..."
Shen Wan, “…???”
Shen Wan's eyes widened in disbelief.
If this is true, then it is not only Liu Xinhui who is trapped in her own web, but also the aunt and her daughter.
Liu Xinhui is the legitimate daughter of the second branch of the Liu family, who is also a legitimate daughter. She is the apple of Old Lady Liu's eye. This time, the Old Lady must have been unable to find out who her eldest brother is engaged to. She couldn't bear to see her eldest brother get a good marriage, so she had a bad idea and wanted to use her eldest brother's marriage to please the Liu family and the position of the wife of the Duke of Dingguo. How could the Liu family not agree?
That's why Liu Xinhui was allowed to accompany him to Beijing. However, she failed to marry her eldest brother and ended up losing her virginity to a servant. This was a great shame and humiliation for the Liu family.
If Old Madam Liu and the second branch of the Liu family knew this, they would definitely want to skin Liu Xianhui and her daughter alive.
He wanted to use the fait accompli method to marry Liu Xinhui to Chen Li. When Shen Ji found out, how could he tolerate it?
Including the servant, Shen Ji drove them all out of the house.
In fact, there are more infuriating things. After the plan failed, the old lady wanted to clean up the mess for her daughter, so she asked Shen Ji to adopt the boy as her adopted son and marry Liu Xinhui in a formal way. She almost made Shen Ji angry to death.
I don't know how shameless Qu Yan was to marry her into the mansion, and finally caused such a scandal. Liu Xinhui plotted against Shen Li, but also took into account her and the Liu family's face and married her into the Duke Dingguo's mansion. She didn't know right from wrong to this extent. If the old lady and the late old lady were not sisters, and Shen Ji took into account the late old lady's face in the afterlife, he would have driven the old lady out of the mansion as well.
The old lady recovered from her illness for a few days, but fell ill again because her daughter would not be able to stay in the Liu family in the future.
It's better to drive everyone out, otherwise if Liu Xinhui becomes depressed and seeks death in the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, that would be too unlucky. Once people are driven out of the mansion, their life or death has nothing to do with the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
Chen Wan was worried that Madam Liu would kill Liu Xinhui and the servant. However, if a living person followed her to the capital and the coffin was finally returned to the capital, the second branch of the Liu family would definitely send people to the capital to investigate. The Duke Dingguo's Mansion would not hide it for them. Madam Liu would never have a good life in the Liu family in the future.
The old lady's ambition ultimately harmed her own daughter, and the more Shen Wan thought about it, the happier she felt.
The day after tomorrow is the emperor's birthday banquet. Since his elder brother is fine, Chen Wan did not return to Duke Dingguo's Mansion and sent Yin Chuan back.
When Yinchuan came back, Shen Wan had just finished lunch. Yinchuan grinned and said, "Princess, today, Minister Qu's residence sent someone to the Duke's residence. Guess what happened?"
How could she have guessed that?
Shanhu urged, "Don't let the Crown Princess guess, just tell me quickly."
Yinchuan covered her mouth and laughed, "The Fourth Young Madam is pregnant..."
Shen Wan, “…”
coral,"……"
The four eyes of the two people were wide open.
There is always more melon to eat.
Coral asked quietly, "Whose child is it?"
Yinchuan shook her head. "They say she's one and a half months pregnant. I wonder if it's the Fourth Young Master's or the Second Young Master's..."
Qu Yan and Shen Xun were capable of such shameless things, but they had no ears to listen.
But no matter who the child belongs to, what is certain is that the child is the old lady's great-grandson.
Qu Yan has a terrible reputation, even Minister Qu can't hold his head up in the court. Qu Yan will never marry again in this life. Now that she is pregnant, Minister Qu wants to take Qu Yan back to the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion.
After all, no matter what, the child is innocent. Besides, Chen Xun has become a fool after the fall and will never be well in his life. I don’t know if it is still humane. Chen Xun is the only child of the fourth room.
Qu Yan had at least half the hope that the baby in her belly was his.
Someone from Shangshu Qu's mansion went to the fourth room to report the news, but was beaten with a broom by a servant and rolled over.
The Fourth Lady grabbed ten sets of abortion pills and asked the servant to throw them to Minister Qu's residence.
The fourth lady would rather her son have no descendants than have a grandchild born by such a shameless person. Fearing that one set of abortion pills would not be effective, she sent ten sets.
For a time, the Duke Dingguo's Mansion and the Minister Qu's Mansion became the laughing stock of Kyoto.
Thinking about the bad reputation of Duke Dingguo's Mansion being ruined by the old lady and her gang, Chen Wan was exhausted and worried that Prince Yong's Mansion would cancel his elder brother's marriage.
