In the living room.
Chu Li sat there quietly, reached out to the table, and touched the teacup after several attempts, making a slight thud sound.
When Yang An turned back, her expression was complicated and solemn as she looked at the Ninth Prince groping in the dark.
My heart is as tangled as a twist...
Bang!
Seeing that the Ninth Prince was about to knock over the teacup, she hurried forward and said, "Ninth Prince, be careful!"
This tea is hot.
Be careful not to burn your hands.
Chu Li smiled gratefully: "Mrs. Yang is back."
"Ninth Prince, your eyes...are you still blind?"
"Well, I had some private affairs a few days ago and nearly got blinded. Although I was treated promptly, I still have a serious illness. I'm afraid I'll have to recover for another two or three months."
Yang An couldn't help but sigh.
The Ninth Prince is a kind-hearted person, but for the sake of her husband and son, and to have a happy family, she has to selfishly take care of herself first.
Chu Li asked, "Where's Qi'er?"
"Qi'er... I have caught a cold. I took some medicine and fell asleep. It's inconvenient for me to come see the Ninth Prince. I'm afraid that my illness will pass on to you. I'm really sorry."
"No problem."
"Then...I'll escort you out of the house?"
"good."
Yang An brushed down her sleeves to cover the back of her hands, carefully measuring the degree of movement, and helped Chu Li to stand up, but they did not head out of the house, but towards the backyard.
Enter her dwelling.
Yang An's face was full of guilt, but she still gritted her teeth and closed the door.
squeak!
"Where are you taking me, Madam Yang?" Chu Li stood in the room, his voice steady.
"Ninth Prince..."
I'm sorry!
Yang An looked ready to die. She untied her belt and was about to step forward. Suddenly, Chu Li's voice became steady and seemed to penetrate people's hearts: "Madam Yang, please be careful."
Yang An's whole body trembled.
The Ninth Prince's reaction was so calm, as if... everything was within her expectations. This made her feel as if a knife was hanging by her neck, and she felt extremely guilty.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
"Minister Yang must be mean to you." Chu Li held onto the edge of the table and sat down slowly. "As the wife of the Minister of War, you have to do even the trivial things like getting medicine yourself. When you talk to me, you have to look at Minister Yang's expression before you speak."
Yang An looked at her in fear:
"Can you see?"
"I can't see it, but I can feel it. When I touched your arm just now, your body trembled. I'm afraid it's because of the injury."
Yang An subconsciously covered her arms, feeling so embarrassed as to want to hide herself from the feeling of being seen through.
"Since ancient times, a mother's status is determined by her son. But don't you know that a son's status is determined by his mother? Minister Yang has been so cruel to you, so how can he be kind to your son?"
Yang An's face turned pale:
“This… I… I…”
Chu Li said, "If you turn from evil to good, I can ask the Emperor to help you and your son escape from the sea of suffering and start a new life. Otherwise, do you think you can still live after using such a dirty trick to humiliate my reputation and bring shame to the royal family?"
Now that it's said this, everything is clear.
Yang An knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face:
"Ninth Prince, I was confused for a moment. During the day, you saved me and Qi'er, but I repaid your kindness with hatred..."
"Minister Yang is really not nice to me. He has a bad temper and beats or scolds me. Even in front of Qi'er, if I say anything back, he will whip me..."
She dared not tell anyone about such private matters, and she has endured it silently for two years.
Chu Li said, "If an ordinary woman were to be divorced, her face would be completely ruined and she would have no way to survive. But the emperor can make the decision, and you and your child can start a new life."
Yang An was very grateful.
She took out a pill from her sleeve and said:
"It was my fault that I was blind and almost made a big mistake. Ninth Prince, this room has been lit with a special incense. You should take this antidote quickly."
Chu Li twisted the pill and held it by his lips, then asked:
"Have you thought it through?"
Yang An lowered her head deeply, "Yes."
"OK."
It’s up to you.
Chu Li raised his head and swallowed, but his head was dizzy, "Why do I feel dizzy...hiss, Madam Yang, what you gave me to eat..."
At this time, Yang An was already crying out of guilt:
"That's a drug. I'm sorry, Ninth Prince. I'm sorry. I can only repay you in my next life for your kindness to me. But Qi'er is still young. He can't live without a father!"
"Madam Yang, you... you are confused... Minister Yang treated you like that..."
Yang An cried:
"Although my husband is very violent to me, I am willing to endure it in order to give Qi'er a complete family."
"Besides, my husband never took concubines or maids. He must love me very much. Otherwise, why would he hit me instead of others?"
-
In the study.
"Why is there no movement yet?" Minister Yang looked outside from time to time with a nervous expression.
Chu Jinglin had a gloomy face and looked very sinister.
"Then your wife is also useless. If she hadn't suddenly brought the Ninth Prince into the mansion, so many things wouldn't have happened, making this prince unable to sleep at night."
Minister Yang had no choice but to apologize quickly: "Please calm down, Seventh Prince!"
snort!
Chu Jinglin stood up and said, "I'll go and see for myself."
When I arrived at the backyard, the door was ajar.
He pushed the door open, but suddenly felt a pain on the back of his neck. He was hit by a knife unexpectedly and fell to the ground unconscious.
Chu Li stepped forward and sneered, "That old thief Chu Dichi is right. The one who loses his temper is the loser."
The person who is unwilling to take risks will not have a good ending.
"Seventh Brother, you asked for this."
Chu Li threw Chu Jinglin onto the bed. Beside her was Yang Anshi, whose hands and feet were tied, her mouth was gagged, and her eyes were filled with tears. She was looking at her with a "mumble", anxiously wanting to say something.
Chu Li looked at her:
"Mrs. Yang, don't say I didn't give you a chance."
Let go of the desire to help others and respect their fate.
If you insist on interfering with other people's karma, you will only bear the karma of others.
Chu Li closed the door and left through the window.
“Mmmmm!”
Yang An's eyes widened as she looked at the Seventh Prince lying beside her. She struggled desperately, "Mmmmm!"
Don't go!
It's over.
It's over!
She was lying with the Seventh Prince. If anything happened, she would die, Minister Yang would die, and the entire Yang Mansion would suffer.
She should have listened to the Ninth Prince.
She knew she was wrong!
She was wrong!
Outside Yang's house.
Chu Li clapped his hands, climbed over the wall and was about to leave when he saw a sinister black figure walking in the night not far away. The centipede-like stitches on the man's forehead were ugly and hideous, but his icy face showed extreme arrogance.
Her feet sank and she immediately hid behind a tree.
Chu Di is late!
He entered the Yang Mansion!
Seeing this, Chu Li curled his lips slightly, took out two taels of silver from his sleeve, called a group of little beggars, and said, "Do my brother a favor, and this silver will be yours."
"You should immediately go to the busiest place in the city and spread rumors everywhere, saying that... the Regent is in the Minister of War's residence and is confronting the Seventh Prince. He wants to destroy the Seventh Prince's reputation and put him to death."
The results tonight are clear:
Chu Dichi entered the Yang residence, but what he saw was a scene of Chu Jinglin and Yang An lying on the same bed...
At the same time, rumors spread in the city.
When Imperial Concubine Jing received the news, she almost fainted from anger:
"Why would Lin'er suddenly go to the Minister of War's residence and cause such a scandal? It must have been the regent's plan!"
"He must have done it!"
After such an incident, the Seventh Prince's reputation was ruined, the royal family was disgraced, and it even became known to the whole city, which was equivalent to eliminating the Seventh Prince's right to compete for the throne.
In the future, who would support a prince who defiled my wife as king?
"Regent! Regent! How did I offend you? You want to kill my child. I will never forgive you!"
Rumors spread everywhere, and once chaos broke out, it became a mess.
When Chu Dichi returned to the Regent's Palace, Bai Jinyi was a little confused:
"You're back so soon?"
Didn’t you go to the Minister of War’s residence to rescue the Ninth Prince?
Where is the Ninth Prince?
Could something have happened to the Ninth Prince?
I heard from Xiao Yexing that Minister Yang is a ruthless person. What if he murdered the Ninth Prince...
Bai Jinyi asked hurriedly, "You came back alone, empty-handed?"
"No," Chu Dichi's expression suddenly became very subtle, as if he was smiling, but his smile was like cutting meat with a blunt knife, and every word was shocking.
"I have come back with the blame."
