Chapter 72: The Divorced Wife of the Childless King 16



"Eunuch Zhang, I have something else to trouble you with."

Bei Lingyao left Kunning Palace and came to find Zhang De.

"Your Majesty, please give your orders."

Zhang De said respectfully.

Bei Lingyao whispered about the incident of Lady Yong'an killing her son.

Zhang De's eyes widened. "Is what the Queen said true?"

"That's what I heard before, but I didn't dare reveal too much at the time, fearing that the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion would kill me."

Bei Lingyao then added, "Eunuch Zhang can have someone investigate. The maids around Lady Yong'an know the situation best."

It’s hard to describe Zhang De in a few words.

After the court session, Emperor Jiahe summoned court officials to the imperial study to discuss matters.

When Zhang De came over, the court officials filed out.

"Where did you go?"

Emperor Jiahe asked.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Zhuang is looking for me."

Zhang De whispered about the matter of the wife of the Earl of Yong'an.

Emperor Jiahe said, "You go and handle this matter. I want to let the whole capital know that Lady Yong'an killed her own son and trapped herself in a cocoon."

Emperor Jiahe has been trying to get information from Shi Liu about Bei Lingyao's past in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion these past two days.

The Yong'an Earl's Mansion received so much money from the Bei family, but was greedy.

While coveting Bei Lingyao's dowry and accepting the money sent by the Bei family, he oppressed and bullied Bei Lingyao.

From the Grand Lady of Yong'an Earl's Mansion, to the Lady of Yong'an Earl, to the Lady of the Crown Prince...

No one in the Lin family is good.

Eat people without leaving any bones behind.

It's so hateful.

That bastard Lin San even wants to divorce his wife and take her back as a concubine.

After Emperor Jiahe put himself in Bei Lingyao's shoes, he even wanted to destroy the Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

"I obey your command."

Zhang De did not sympathize with the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. If he had any conscience, he would not have ended up like this.

Zhang De walked out for a while and then hurried back.

"Your Majesty, the Black Xuan Guards have made a significant discovery."

"What is it?"

"Those bandits were the brother-in-law of the son of Mr. Lin San's wet nurse. He met them in a gambling house. He gave them portraits of Concubine Zhuang and Shi Liu..."

Bang!

Emperor Jiahe was furious. The portrait of Bei Lingyao and his servant was suspicious in the hands of the bandits.

Emperor Jiahe had always suspected the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion, but he had no definite evidence.

Now Hei Xuanwei has found out from the bandits.

The source of all evil is Lin San.

This bastard is so hateful.

"Knock him out for me and throw him into the Nanfeng Pavilion."

Emperor Jiahe lived for nearly thirty years and had never hated anyone so much.

Bei Lingyao was slightly stunned when she knew that Emperor Jiahe had taken action.

Good guy, send Lin San to Nanfeng Pavilion.

This was exactly what she wanted.

She hadn't thought of this trick.

Originally, I thought that after the Yong'an Earl's Mansion was destroyed, I would let Lin San become a beggar.

It seems she is still too kind.

This is how people like Lin San, who are unscrupulous and evil to the core, should be treated.

If the main person had not been killed in the accident, he would have been tortured in the bandits' lair.

Because Emperor Jiahe suppressed the bandit's lair.

The original owner offered his soul and had only three requirements.

Give birth to an heir for Emperor Jiahe.

To avenge the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion and make sure Lin San is killed without a burial place.

Let parents live a worry-free life.

The original owner's father, Bei Chengye, was the eldest son of the Bei family's eldest branch. He had one wife, two concubines, three daughters and one son.

His wife, An, gave birth to the original owner, a daughter, and a five-year-old son.

The two concubines each gave birth to a concubine's daughter.

My cousin and his wife in the capital are the eldest sons of the second wife.

Before the original owner's younger brother was born, the second house wanted to adopt the youngest son to the eldest house.

But the second wife has three sons, and my cousin and his wife in the capital are the eldest son and daughter-in-law of the second wife.

They wanted to adopt the child into the eldest branch of the family, but the second branch's father and wife were unwilling to adopt the eldest son.

He was also unwilling to adopt his second son who was studying.

I wanted to adopt a third son.

But the eldest son did not want his third brother to be adopted into the eldest house.

He was the eldest son of the second wife, and none of his brothers would adopt him. So he was the first to inherit the property of the first wife.

But once adopted, all the property of the eldest wife will belong to the third brother.

So the eldest son of the second wife kept stopping and refusing to allow the child to be adopted.

Unexpectedly, An, who had been infertile for many years, became pregnant and gave birth to a child, shattering the second wife's hopes.

When the old man of the Bei family saw that the eldest son had a son, he was very happy and no longer mentioned the issue of adoption.

The second wife had tried everything in vain, so she proposed that the eldest son and his wife take over the business in the capital, and also help the original owner's cousin.

Everyone in the Bei family agreed.

After all, the eldest son of the eldest house is young and still more than ten years away from growing up, so he cannot be of any help to the original owner.

However, he did not expect that the eldest son and daughter-in-law of the second house would arrive in the capital, not only hindering the original owner, but also conspiring with Lin San.

Even the second branch conspired with the Yong'an Earl's Mansion to take over the family property and become the heir of the Bei family.

As both are legitimate sons, Bei Chengye can inherit 70% of the family business because he is the eldest legitimate son.

This made the second wife very dissatisfied.

The Yong'an Earl's Mansion promised him benefits, allowing him to inherit the Bei family, ensuring a smooth path for his second son to take the imperial examination, and promoting his second son in officialdom.

He even promised that when his second son passed the imperial examination, he would marry the daughter of the Yong'an Earl or introduce a noble lady to him.

Of course the second wife would be unwilling.

With so many conditions, he immediately started to dig into his own family's corner.

You know, now that Old Master Bei is still alive, Second Master Bei has joined forces with outsiders to plot against the family property.

I want to screw the eldest wife to death.

Bei Lingyao has already written a letter to the Bei family and asked the eunuch who was delivering the imperial edict to deliver it together.

He even invited his parents, Old Master Bei, and the second wife to come to Beijing together.

Let’s do some careful calculations.

At this time, the news that Lady Yong'an had killed her own son spread throughout the capital.
