Chapter 579 What a big show.
"Your son dare not..."
"Don't dare?" The Fourth Master said indifferently, "What else is there that you dare not do? You can even poison me."
"Your Majesty, I am a fool. I didn't know this was a deadly poison. If I had known, I would rather die than put it in your food..."
"Hongshi, do you know? If your eighth uncle had succeeded, the one lying here today would be your royal father."
"Your Majesty...this son absolutely did not mean it. Eighth Uncle...Eighth Uncle...he is not that kind of person! Perhaps there is some misunderstanding here..."
"Alright," the Fourth Master said calmly, "You always think about your Eighth Uncle, so you can be his son."
"Your Majesty...what do you mean...I am your son...what do you mean?"
Fourth Master: "Come here, send him to be the son of the Eighth Master."
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong..."
Wen Jiu was frightened and turned back subconsciously, meeting the extremely sinister eyes of the Fourth Master. Suddenly, all the hairs on his body stood up.
Those eyes were indifferent and without any emotion, as if the person in front of him was not really his son, but a stranger.
This person was so unfamiliar, completely different from the Fourth Master she knew...
Just as she was frowning and thinking, the scene changed again. The next second, Wenjiu opened her eyes and found that she had returned to the space.
The memory fragments in my hand have been shattered into powder.
"Is that all? Didn't you say how many children you had? Why are there only two? I haven't even read any of Hongli and Hongzhou's messages..."
Xiao Jin blinked his eyes. "Master, it's great that you can see both of them. This is just a fragment of memory at this stage. Do you think you will have to spend another 200 days of life points to exchange it?"
Wen Jiu frowned: "Why is it called 200 days? Didn't the previous memory fragments take 100 days to exchange?"
Xiao Jin: "...the higher you go, the more expensive it is."
Wenjiu: "...Okay, you are awesome."
Without bothering to chat with Xiao Jin, Wen Jiu quickly went over the clues in his mind before she could sort them out.
It means realizing that someone is talking in reality.
I had no choice but to put this matter aside for the time being and come out of the space.
"Concubine...wake up."
Nanny Song called softly from outside the curtain. Wenjiu pulled open the curtain and took a look, only to see that Nanny Song looked anxious.
Wen Jiu simply got out of bed and followed Nanny Song to the outer room:
"What's wrong?"
"Master, it's Fu Jin who has brought Lady Song and the others here. They're waiting in our hall now. They heard from somewhere that the prince was injured, and they all want to come and take care of him."
"Attending to the sick?" Liusu's eyebrows twitched at the thought, and she immediately looked at Wen Jiu. "Concubine, I'm afraid she has other intentions than this bar."
Wen Jiu raised an eyebrow and said, "Mammy, go and tell them, make it clear to her that the master is sleeping now and cannot be disturbed by others. If she insists on coming in, then let her in."
Nanny Song was stunned: "Master, how can this be possible..."
Wenjiu patted her shoulder and said, "Go ahead."
After Nanny Song left, Wen Jiu asked Liu Su again, "Have you checked the people around you? Is there anything wrong?"
Liusu shook her head. "Master, I've already asked around in secret, and I haven't found anyone in our courtyard who seems suspicious. Let's wait until this storm is over, and then we can investigate and interrogate them more thoroughly..."
Wen Jiu: "No hurry, don't give rewards and scare the snake away."
"Yes, sir, do you remember that we lost a handkerchief in front of us some time ago?"
Wenjiu: "When?"
Liusu said, "It was the day we were playing with the stone. We searched for it in the front yard for a while, but couldn't find it. Last night, I thought about it over and over again, and I felt that it was very likely that someone had picked it up."
Wenjiu nodded: "Let's keep an eye on these people for now, and see if Wangcai can find any clues later."
As they were talking, Nanny Song pulled aside the curtain and walked into the room, saying, "Concubine, Concubine said she wanted to come over and check on the prince's health."
Wen Jiu raised an eyebrow. This answer was expected. Wen Jiu simply let her in, wanting to see what tricks she was going to play.
"What's wrong with the prince?" When Ulanara came in and saw Wenjiu, she held her hand and tears fell down.
Song and Yin, who were following behind him, also had red eyes.
Only Niuhulu looked better, quite dignified and steady. Wen Jiu couldn't help but look at her a little longer. She was indeed the future Empress Dowager. She was only a teenager, but she already had a rather calm demeanor.
"Fujin, the master is resting, and there's nothing seriously wrong with him. It's not good for you to cry like this..." Wenjiu said.
Upon hearing this, Ulanara's face froze. Her fists subconsciously tightened, but she managed a forced smile. She took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears, saying, "Sister, you're right. I'm not doing well. How's the prince? Is he feeling better?"
How could this Li Shi have harmed the prince? She was truly foolish. Not only had she harmed her own child, but she had also disturbed her sister's full moon banquet. She was truly annoying.
"Sister, why don't you just lock her up in the yard? She's acting crazy like this, she even dared to hurt me, who knows what kind of trouble she might cause. She looks like she's gone mad."
Wen Jiu raised her eyebrows in surprise when she heard this, and said, "Regarding matters in the backyard, leave it to Madam Fu to decide. I don't have any ideas."
The smile on Ulanara's face froze, and she finally pulled the corner of her mouth and said, "The prince trusts me, and now I am in charge of the household affairs. It is more appropriate for you to give instructions on these matters. I am still recuperating from my illness recently, so I will not get involved in these matters."
As he spoke, he sighed inadvertently, and then continued, "Speaking of which, I should pray to the Buddha these days. Ever since my sister gave birth to the quadruplets, our family has been plagued by accidents one after another..."
"Fujin!" Wenjiu turned his head to look at her, his expression cold. "The Emperor said that a fourth child is an auspicious sign, and there is no doubt about it. If I hear Fujin say that again, I will definitely go to the Emperor with you to have a say.
Upon hearing this, Ulanara's face turned pale. She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled again: "Look at what you said, sister. I was just saying it casually, how could I really think so? A fourth child is naturally a good omen..."
Seeing that Wenjiu ignored her, Ulanara didn't say anything more and just said, "Where's the prince? I'll go check on him."
Wen Jiu just pointed lightly and said: "The prince is recuperating in there, I dare not disturb him. If you want to go and see him, go ahead." After saying that, he found a place to sit down.
Before the Ulanara family and their companions could walk inside, the little bean came trotting into the house.
"Concubine Li, Concubine Li is here." Wen Jiu couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this, thinking he had misheard: "Who did you say is here?"
Xiaodouzi said, "It's Concubine Li. She's holding a cane and kneeling at the gate of our yard, saying she wants to apologize."
When Wen Jiu heard this, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ulanara's unhappy expression.
Oh, today is such a big show.
