When Si Junshan heard the word Xuzhou, the anger on his face immediately disappeared!
He unfolded the letter and walked to the side to read it carefully.
While Si Junshan was reading the letter, the old lady hurriedly helped Si Jinhao up.
She looked at her own grandson who was so thin that he looked unrecognizable, and felt extremely distressed. She whispered to him in a low voice:
"Don't blame your father, it was that damned girl who instigated everything behind the scenes. Now, that girl is dead in Qingcheng County!
As time goes by, your father will still love you as much as before!"
When Si Jinhao heard this, his eyes lit up slightly. Sure enough, his grandmother and he had the same idea!
He felt that the mansion had been peaceful in the past few years, but since that dead girl came back, there has not been a single day of peace!
But, did that person really die in Qingcheng County?
Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Si Jinyun beside him, and saw that he just shook his head slightly and had no other reaction.
It feels like I haven't seen my third sister for only three months, but she seems to have changed a lot?
In the past, this girl had the temper of a little firecracker, and would explode at the slightest ignition!
Now, I am much more timid!
Si Jinhao glanced at the old lady and said with a bit of grievance on his face:
“Fortunately, the grandmother loves her grandson!
My grandson finally escaped from that torturous prison, and now...”
The old lady felt even worse when she heard her grandson say this. She wiped her tears and said:
"Did anyone bully you in prison? What did you eat every day? Did you eat enough? Grandma saw that you had lost a lot of weight!
Oh, my God, what sin did our Si family commit that my grandson has to suffer so much?
Si Jinhao immediately responded, "Isn't it all because of that damn girl that my grandson has suffered so much?
If it weren't for her, how could the incident with His Royal Highness Prince Heng have happened? Letting her die in Qingcheng County was really a bargain for her! "
Si Junshan over there had just finished reading the letter and was truly relieved!
That child really faked his death and has now gone to Tongshan County. I believe he will be able to return to Beijing safely soon!
He was overjoyed, finally he had good news for her!
Just when Si Junshan was feeling very happy, he heard Si Jinhao's words!
He glanced over with a cold look and asked in a flat voice:
"So, what happened to King Heng that day wasn't your fault?"
When Si Jinhao heard that there was no blame in his father's tone, his face showed some of his usual arrogance. Was his father trying to stand up for him?
Seeing this, Si Jinyun thought something was wrong!
Si Jinxing's current position in her father's heart is incomparable to Si Jinhao's!
She quickly glanced over, trying to stop him, but it was too late!
I only heard my eldest brother snort coldly and say:
"Father, I feel really wronged in this matter!
My father was injured at the time and probably didn’t know what happened that day!
That day, the girl went out for the whole day and came back with a baby in her arms. She happened to have just returned to Beijing a month ago.
Anyone would guess that this was a bastard born in her villa outside Beijing, right?
We were just concerned about her and asked a few more questions, but unexpectedly, your Royal Highness Prince Heng came and said it was the young master of his house.
If that girl had made it clear from the beginning, we wouldn't have been shooting ourselves in the foot.
My son has been wronged!"
Si Junshan stared at his son and said, "Unjust! It really is unjust!"
When Si Jinhao heard this, he realized that his father was indeed a reasonable man!
He immediately said, "If my father hadn't been bedridden at the time, how could he have allowed that girl to act so rampant?
But there's no need for father to worry, that girl has already been taken away by heaven!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face changed, even the old lady's face turned pale!
Even if that girl was dead, it was something Si Junshan could not mention. Otherwise, why was the funeral not allowed to take place more than a month ago?
Si Jinyun simply lowered her eyes and took a step back. This eldest brother was really spoiled by her mother and was extremely stupid!
Before he could see the situation clearly and understand the current situation in the house, he hurried to find his father to complain about his grievances!
How dare you curse Si Jinxing, the apple of your father's eye!
Besides, his background...
If this is really as she thought, then what about her and her elder sister?
For some reason, Si Jinyun always had a bad feeling.
Before she could think about it, she heard a loud slap!
She hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Si Jinhao's face was becoming red and swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye, with a line of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth!
He knelt on the ground, not knowing what was going on. He looked up at Si Junshan and asked, "Father, what are you doing?"
Si Junshan's face was dark, his brows furrowed, and he scolded:
"You're such a mouthful bastard!
Why didn’t the emperor cut off your tongue, so that you wouldn’t have to make up stories and curse today!
You better remember this!
The girl you are talking about is the legitimate daughter of my Si family, the one and only legitimate daughter!
You have no right to curse her! Come, give me thirty lashes of the cane! "
When these words were spoken, the old lady was frightened!
My eldest grandson just got out of prison, how could he still endure thirty beatings?
She quickly embraced Si Jinhao in her arms, turned her head and glared at Si Junshan, cursing:
"I don't care how you scold him!
But you must not hit him again today. Look at how thin he has become.
If you hit him with thirty boards, you will kill him!
Is there any father like you in this world?
If you dare to hit him today, you'd better beat me to death first!
I want to see how General Si, who killed his own mother, can continue to serve in the court!"
Seeing this, the two servants carrying sticks didn't know whether to advance or retreat, and hurriedly looked at Lord Ling Su for help.
Ling Su was about to say something when he saw the general raise his hand and say:
"You don't need to say anything. The caning is final today!"
After he finished speaking to Ling Su, he continued, "Mother Lu, help the old lady back to Heyun Courtyard to have a good rest!
You guys, hit me!"
Seeing this, Mother Lu, who was standing beside the old lady, hurriedly came forward with another maid, and tried to help the old lady up from both sides.
But the old lady seemed to be determined and held Si Jinhao tightly, and finally she just sat on the ground and started crying!
She never thought that she, the old lady of the general's mansion, would be restrained everywhere and couldn't even protect her eldest grandson?
She never expected that the son she had raised for more than fifty years would be so disobedient and unfilial to her!
The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt, and her cries grew louder and louder:
"I have truly raised an ungrateful bastard. Oh my God, I can't live any longer!"
Seeing this, Si Junshan said calmly:
"Mother, are you thinking of returning to Hengzhou? Come, get the carriage!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the old lady stopped crying. She didn't want to go back to Hengzhou. She couldn't afford to lose face with that person!
She opened her mouth, about to argue, but suddenly heard a male voice coming from outside the yard:
"Junshan, is this how you treat your mother?"
