"Shameless, vulgar! He is popular with both men and women..." Hua Lingyi cried in his heart!
This is the first time in his life that he likes a woman!
As a result, I was fooled!
They've been together for a long time! They even have a child!
He is heartbroken...
What should I do if I really want to cry!
The man, who was as big as a small mountain, sat on the bed and started to cry. He was very sad.
Wei Meng felt a little sad when he saw this. With red eyes, he stepped forward to comfort her, "Don't be sad, Master. There are many better women in the world. Why do you have to love a broken flower? There are many good women. Master will definitely meet a better one!"
Hua Lingyi sniffed his snot and nodded.
Yes, he must cheer up! He wants revenge, he wants to avenge his hatred! He wants to make that bastard Hua Lingyang pay the price!
On the other side of the East Palace, Hua Changjue, who was preparing to attend the morning court, raised the corners of his lips when he heard the news brought back by An Yi.
"Well done! As for what happens next, I think the second brother will handle it! If he can't handle it well, I'll help him!"
After Hua Changjue finished speaking, he looked towards the direction of the West Palace and said coldly, "The counterattack begins now!"
In the West Mansion, it was still dark, but the entire mansion was brightly lit.
The courtyard of Hua Lingcong, the eldest son of the West Mansion, was even more crowded with people, all with anxious and panicked faces.
"Oh, what happened to Cong'er? Where is he hurt?" The old lady grabbed Hua Changxiao's arm and asked anxiously.
Hua Changxiao no longer had his usual elegant and gentle demeanor. His face turned ashen and he refused to speak.
The old lady couldn't get the answer for a long time, and pushed Hua Changxiao aside in anger. She was supported by Nanny Wei and walked quickly to the inner room to Hua Lingcong's bed.
At this time, Liang's eyes were red from crying, but she kept comforting Hua Lingcong.
"Don't be afraid, Cong'er. Your father will find the best doctor for you. You will definitely get better."
Hua Lingcong was lying on the bed with a pale face and blue lips. He was only wearing a white shirt, but his lower body was stained with blood. He looked like he had lost his soul, his eyes were empty, and he stared straight at the veil above his head.
The old lady frowned, her heart skipped a beat, not daring to think too much. Seeing the doctor who had not left yet, she stepped forward and questioned him.
"What happened to my eldest grandson?"
The doctor hesitated for a long time and didn't dare to explain clearly.
Seeing Hua Changxiao coming in behind the old lady, his face turned pale and he dared not say anything.
"I am not good at medicine, please ask the old lady to find someone else!"
The old lady was very angry and pointed at the doctor fiercely, "Get out!"
The doctor ran out quickly as if he had been pardoned.
When only the old lady, Hua Changxiao and Liang were left in the room.
The old lady stared at Hua Changxiao, "What happened to Cong'er?"
Hua Changxiao looked at Hua Lingcong, sighed, and said softly, "Mother, please follow me outside!"
The old lady's eyes flashed, and she looked at Hua Lingcong again before being helped out by Hua Changxiao.
After arriving at the outer room and sending away the servants, Hua Changxiao said with a gloomy face.
"Cong'er's life was cut off..."
"What? What did you say?" The old lady was incredulous. She slapped the table with her hand and stood up. "Who is it? Who is so bold as to hurt Cong'er!"
"We haven't found out who it is yet."
The old lady sat back down again.
The two of them felt very disappointed. If his life force was cut off, "Wouldn't Cong'er be left without him?" the old lady murmured.
Suddenly thinking of something, the old lady's eyes lit up.
"No, I heard from Madam Wei that Cong'er had five concubines while he was in office. Wasn't there any pregnancy?"
Hua Changxiao obviously thought of this as well.
"I have already sent people to look for it as fast as they can. I guess we won't know until tomorrow."
The old lady nodded, and suddenly remembered her previous conversation with Hua Changxiao. She took a deep breath and said.
"You said before that you wanted Cong'er to marry a girl from the Xie family. We have to hurry up!"
Hua Changxiao was stunned. "Cong'er is already like this. It will definitely not work for him to marry a girl from the Xie family."
The old lady glared at him and snorted coldly.
"It is because of this that I want to marry you."
Hua Changxiao was puzzled, "Why? He is no longer humane..."
"That's why we have to find him a wife, so that people outside won't talk nonsense."
The old lady narrowed her eyes and said, "If Cong'er's concubine has a child, then the mother should be killed and the child should be kept. Let the Xie family's daughter raise the child as her own son. Only then can Cong'er keep his dignity and have an heir."
"This is not good!" Hua Changxiao hesitated. "After all, the Xie family is also a third-rank family. If I offend them..."
"You forgot that you are going to be a Duke! That is a position of Duke's relative, the first rank. In the future, Cong'er will also be the Duke's son! Then Miss Xie will be the prince's consort, the future Duke's wife!"
Hua Changxiao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Cong'er has had this happen, but for the sake of the future, in order to avoid a quarrel between brothers, we can only save Cong'er's reputation and incense."
Hua Changxiao nodded.
"So, no one can know that Cong'er has injured his vitals, not even Yang'er. Just say that you were riding a horse outside and injured your leg. Come back to recuperate."
Hua Changxiao let out a long breath. He bowed to the old lady and said, "Yes, I will follow mother's arrangements!"
After Hua Changxiao left, the old lady returned to her own courtyard. After entering the main house, she asked everyone to leave, leaving only Nanny Wei.
"Go and quietly find Wang Er and ask him to send away the doctor today!"
Wei Mama was shocked. Wang Er was the old lady's distant nephew, and he helped the old lady do some shameful things in private. She didn't know what the doctor had done to be silenced.
She was terrified and didn't dare to ask any further questions, so she quickly retreated.
…
Jiang got up, packed everything up, and had breakfast. Hua Qingqing was still sleeping in.
"Pig's trotters. Baby wants to eat pig's trotters!" Even in her sleep, her little mouth couldn't help but smack its lips, obviously she was very greedy.
Jiang shook her head in amusement, while Caiyu and Caiqing, who were serving beside her, covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
Madam Rong came in with a unhappy look on her face and said to Jiang.
"The proud young man from the Li Mansion has arrived at the back door. Cai Lian said she wanted to kowtow to you before leaving!"
Jiang raised her eyebrows, her smile cooled, and she asked, "So, is Lord Li here?"
Aunt Rong nodded, "I'm waiting in the outer courtyard."
"Okay, bring everyone to the front hall, I'll go meet them!" Jiang sneered, "If you marry out of our Duke's Mansion, your status can't be too low!"
Rong Mama immediately understood what Jiang meant and said with a smile.
"Madam is right!"
When Jiang arrived at the front hall, she saw Li Xiu in a fifth-rank official uniform and Cai Lian in a peach pink dress.
When the two saw Jiang, they hurriedly bowed.
As Zhu's husband, Li Xiu was indeed meeting the Duchess's wife for the first time.
He was a little nervous and didn't know where to put his hands.
"Your humble servant greets the Duke's wife."
"No need to be polite!"
Jiang didn't intend to beat around the bush and said directly, "Since Cailian has married Lord Li, she will belong to Lord Li from now on! I just want to ask, what status does Lord Li plan to give Cailian?"
