"But now it has come to this. Is it that Big Brother is going to wait for Shang Yuanshan to win so that he can avenge his father?"
"What does this have to do with me?"
Shang Wanning sneered: "Of course it is related. It was you who planted the poisonous insect in that cup of tea. It was you who gave the worm to Duke Shang, and that's why he is dead now."
"No, no, I didn't know that would kill him. I thought it was just to make him unconscious."
"Really? Don't you want him to die? Don't you want to take your concubines back to the mansion?"
"But I never thought of killing him."
Shang Wanning stepped forward and pulled Shang Huaishu's arm again: "It's a pity that you have already done it and there is no turning back. Why don't you follow me to deal with them? From now on, you will be the prince of the Duke's Mansion, and we two brothers will work together to help the master."
Shang Huaishu slowly calmed down. He knew that this was the best outcome. Only if he became a Duke would that be the best outcome. "Okay."
Shang Wanning's mouth opened into a wide arc, and he smiled and held Shang Huaishu's hand. "Brother, then you order people to arrest Shang Yuanshan and his men, and then go to the palace to report the news and raid Shang Yuanshan's house."
"Okay." Shang Huaishu looked at the guards in the courtyard and said, "Shang Yuanshan entered the mansion to assassinate the Duke. Someone send the murderer to the Dali Temple for interrogation."
The guards took the order and stepped forward, but when they saw Shang Yuanshan, they hesitated and did not dare to move forward. They all knew Shang Yuanshan's skills, and they might not be able to defeat Shang Yuanshan.
Shang Wanning sneered, "Don't be afraid. Shang Yuanshan has been poisoned. He has no internal strength at all. You will definitely be able to catch him. Besides, he has brought several burdens with him. You don't need to show mercy and just kill him."
After hearing Shang Wanning's words, the guards finally moved, and they stepped forward with their swords brandished.
Shang Yuanshan sighed: "Hey, why did you bother me?"
After a moment, Shang Wanning looked at the fallen guards and clenched his fists. "Unfilial daughter, you actually betrayed me."
Shang Yuanshan looked at Shang Wanning with a smile. "The rat in the ditch is jumping out now. What do you think will happen to you if you are caught?"
"Shang Yuanshan, you are about to die, why are you still being so arrogant?" Shang Wanning looked at Shang Yuanshan with a sneer, and then he gave an order. "Everyone leave the room."
In an instant, Butler Zhang led everyone out. Shang Wanning looked at Shang Yuanshan with a sneer: "I just don't believe that the rain of arrows can't kill you."
Just when Shang Huaishu was about to give the order to shoot arrows, he was stopped by Shang Huaishu again.
"Shang Wanning, my mother is still inside, you can't shoot an arrow."
Shang Wanning frowned and looked at Shang Huaishu: "Brother, why are you still so indecisive? Remember, she is not your mother. Your mother is dead."
Shang Wanning didn't want to say anything more to Shang Huaishu at this moment. He ordered: "Shoot~"
After a moment, Shang Wanning looked back in shock. No arrows were shot at him, and there was no movement outside. He looked at Shang Yuanshan: "You discovered it a long time ago?"
Shang Yuanshan sneered: "Not very early, just these few days."
Shang Wanning was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Shang Yuanshan with a big laugh: "But what's the use? You can't change the death of Duke Shang, and the master will definitely find out about the situation here and send reinforcements. You can't escape today."
A familiar voice was heard: "Really?" These two short words made the people outside tremble in their hearts, and then Duke Shang walked out of the house slowly.
“You you you....” Shang Wanning stuttered and couldn’t speak.
Shang Huaishu said tremblingly, "Father."
In the past few moments, Duke Shang's emotions changed rapidly. He was first disappointed with Shang Huaishu, then shocked when he guessed the truth, and then filled with guilt and relief. These emotions were mixed together.
There was no disappointment in Shang Huaishu's eyes, no emotion at all. Instead, he looked at Shang Yuanshan on the side. Tears streamed down his face. He wanted to laugh out loud, but he couldn't. He felt sorry for the child. He knew all the hardships he had endured over the years, but why didn't he find the problem and let the child suffer so much?
Duke Shang stroked Shang Yuanshan's face with trembling fingers. "My child, I have wronged you over the years. It was all because your father was away fighting in the war, leaving your mother alone at home to give birth, and the thieves took advantage of her."
Li had already burst into tears. She stepped forward and said with a sob, "I can't even recognize my own son. It was your mother who harmed you."
Shang Yuanshan's suppressed emotions burst out at the same time, and he stepped forward and hugged the two of them. "It's their fault, not yours. Fortunately, we still have a chance to meet each other in this life."
Duke Shang knew clearly what Shang Yuanshan meant. From Shang Yangyang's voice, they knew that in the original story, Shang Yuanshan and his family had already died tragically, and they would all be killed soon after, with no chance of recognizing each other at all.
Shang Wanning was shocked outside: "Shang Yuanshan, did you know about this a long time ago?"
"How do you know?" Shang Wanning's face was full of disbelief. He couldn't accept this.
At this moment, a woman ran in from the courtyard gate like crazy. "Prince, save me, the prince's wife is crazy and wants to kill us."
Shang Huaishu had no time to pay attention to her at this moment. He was staring at the family in the room recognizing each other. His fists were clenched tightly and his whole body was shaking.
"I will kill you." Along with the voice came the mad Liu covered in blood.
She rushed in with a knife. Everyone in the yard was panicked at the moment. She walked forward without blocking anyone and pulled the woman's hair.
"Bitch, you killed my son. You let that cowardly prince tie me to a pillar and let you humiliate me. Today I want you to pay for my son's life."
"Puchi~" Liu stabbed the woman's lower abdomen with a knife, and then heard the woman screaming heartbreakingly: "Prince, save me, I'm pregnant with your child."
When Liu heard this, she became even crazier. She stabbed the woman's abdomen with the knife in her hand for dozens of times before she stopped. However, the woman had already stopped breathing.
At this moment, Shang Huaishu seemed to have just come to his senses. When he saw the woman stabbed to death by Liu, his eyes were red. "Liu, are you crazy?"
Liu turned and looked at Shang Huaishu, her eyes full of hatred. "Shang Huaishu, you are the one who is crazy. What have you done to such a good family? Both of my sons were killed by your concubine."
Shang Huaishu frowned: "How could they die? Didn't they catch a cold?"
"Fenghan? Hahahaha, just ask your good brother what he asked your concubine to do for him. You are really stupid..."
Shang Wanning shouted, "Liu, shut up." He looked at Shang Huaishu again, "Brother Liu is crazy, don't believe her. How could I do anything bad to you?"
Liu: “Hahahaha…, this is so funny…haha…”
"Puchi~" Shang Wanning took the knife from the guard beside him and stabbed it into Liu's abdomen.
Liu fell straight into a pool of blood, with the corners of her mouth raised and her eyes staring at Shang Huaishu.
