Chapter 796: You are such a despicable person who uses a knife to kill people. You really deserve a beating.
Talking about the recent bad thing, both people in the car fell silent.
The rest of the Sang family were an eyesore when they were alive. If they died at the hands of outsiders, that would not be a big deal. At most, they would be told that it was all their own fault.
But if he died at the hands of Xu Yu, this secret would be kept secret for the rest of his life.
If any news leaked out, not to mention the huge stigma that would be inflicted on Xu Yu, I'm afraid Sang Zhixia and Sang Yanyou would feel bad.
Everyone in the world values blood relatives. Even if the relationship is severed, there is still some blood connection.
Emotionally, as the son-in-law of the Sang family, Xu Yu had no reason to kill his own in-laws.
Even though his father-in-law was a real piece of shit, the rest of the Sang family never really wanted to be upright people.
Chen Jing'an looked at Xu Yu's gloomy face and felt unlucky from the bottom of his heart.
Chen Jing'an muttered, "When the Sang family incident happened, I thought these people were exiled and might have died somewhere. No news of them would ever come out again in this lifetime. Who could have imagined that?"
"In the end, after the royal family fought and the one who finally ascended the throne was actually the former Prince of Lu. The legitimate daughter of the Sang family was originally just an insignificant concubine in the Prince of Lu's palace, but she suddenly entered the imperial palace and became the favorite concubine of Emperor Yongshun."
With the help of the favored concubine, the once fallen Sang family rose again.
The exiled people were recalled to Kyoto, and the Sang family seemed to have the illusion of prosperity again.
The person who was expected to die did not die, and now he has become a fishbone stuck in the throat, which can neither be spit out nor swallowed. It is really disgusting.
No one took such a stray dog seriously in the past, but man proposes, God disposes.
Xu Yu became famous on the battlefield, and after the flood in the south of the Yangtze River, the name of Sang Dongjia of Sanyou Trading Company also spread throughout the country.
It was no longer a secret that Xu Yu's wife's maiden name was Sang Zhixia, and the wedding of the prince of Jiaxing Marquisate and the concubine of the Sang family once again became a topic of conversation among people after dinner.
It was only then that people realized that Xu Yu and the Sang family were actually legitimate relatives.
In terms of marriage, Xu Yu and Emperor Yongshun married daughters from the same family, so they could be considered brothers-in-law.
Even though the only feeling these two brothers-in-law had for each other was that they wanted to skin each other alive, no one had ever thought of using this to cause trouble.
But when the water in the pond is shallow, the turtles will scramble to jump up, and even the blood relatives who are not even remotely related to them will show up at this time.
Chen Jing'an squinted at Xu Yu's face, leaned in closer and whispered, "Didn't your cheap father-in-law send someone to look for you? What did he say? Where is he?"
"Kill him."
Chen Jingan gave a thumbs-up in amazement, unable to contain his curiosity, "Did he really kill him?"
"nonsense."
Xu Yu gritted his teeth with a dark face: "Do you know what you are here for?"
Chen Jing'an groaned without thinking and said strangely, "Do we even need to guess?"
"Your father-in-law hasn't thought about you being his son-in-law for ages. I'm afraid he's even completely forgotten about your married daughter, your sister-in-law. There are only two reasons why he secretly sent someone to look for you at this critical moment."
"Either they're trying to persuade you to turn back and join the imperial court to serve Emperor Yongshun, or they're trying to find a way through you so they can pack up and head for Lingnan themselves."
"but……"
Chen Jing'an blinked subtly: "I think the possibility of that person wanting to switch to Lingnan is unlikely."
Lingnan is not willing to accept all goods.
Given that person's true character, even if there were ten Jiang Yubai stacked up, they wouldn't bother to lower their heads to look at him any longer.
In other words, this worthless father-in-law actually came to persuade Emperor Yongshun to surrender on his behalf.
Xu Yu gave Chen Jing'an a disinterested look and said, suppressing his impatience, "The person who sent him here was quite generous. Not only did he promise to redress my father's injustice, he also offered him the title of First Class Duke, a title that would be passed down through three generations without a downgrade."
"They said that as long as I am willing to follow the example of the Xu family's ancestors and be loyal to the court, I will be promoted and have a bright future in the future. The prerequisite is that I can incite the Lingnan army to revolt and help the court suppress the rebellion."
Emperor Yongshun was really anxious.
The continuous defeats in wars, the Lingnan army approaching Kyoto, and the fact that the Kyoto royal family was almost non-existent among the people, all of these things severely hit Emperor Yongshun's heart, which was afraid that his throne would be unstable.
If he wasn't really desperate, he wouldn't have done such a stupid thing.
Chen Jing'an tutted his words with mixed feelings and said playfully, "This offer is quite generous, aren't you tempted?"
"Am I crazy and think my death is too late?"
Xu Yu said unhappily, "Imitating my father's generation?"
"My father's body was destroyed on the Hongbei battlefield, and he has been tarnished for many years. Even if I am an uneducated and unworthy descendant, I should know what it means to learn from my mistakes."
"Besides, who cares about the little benefits he gives?"
So after the messenger of his damn father-in-law arrived, Xu Yu listened quietly to the other party's explanation of his grand plan that seemed like a dragon in the sky.
He turned around and chopped off the man's head, and sent the freshly fallen head and the secret letter brought by the other party to Jiang Yubai.
But even the children could guess that the other party would not give up.
Although Xu Yu had no intention of doing this, if the other party continued to pester him, it would be a problem.
More importantly, Xu Yu didn't want Sang Zhixia and Sang Yanyou to know about this.
Xu Yu pressed his aching brow and exhaled, saying with a sullen face, "Before Zhizhi married, she was not loved by her biological father at home. The three of us, mother and son, were trapped in the inner house of the Sang family and lived a very difficult life."
Even his marriage to Sang Zhixia went through many twists and turns.
Before they could get married, the Sang family's stepmother used her great ability to influence everyone in the inner house to poke a needle in Sang Zhixia's heart before the wedding.
Upon learning that Sang Zhixia had been deceived by her stepmother and initially believed that she was forced to marry in place of her stepmother, Chen Jingan cursed her mother in a low voice.
"This is a very vicious intention."
"You two haven't even gotten married yet, but you're already trying to drive your marriage apart?"
If Sang Zhixia was a person with a heavy heart, or if she didn't find the opportunity to make things clear later, and the couple had doubts about their original intentions, their future life would never be smooth.
Xu Yu was so angry that he laughed: "So, are you saying there are no good people in that family?"
"I don't mind having another such a shitty relative. After all, I have a bad reputation and am used to being criticized by the world. But I can't involve the rest of my family."
Sang Zhixia is not a weak person, nor is she unable to withstand stimulation.
But this thing can't kill anyone, it just sounds disgusting!
And Sang Yanyou...
Xu Yu closed his eyes and said, "Yanyou is young, and at that time he was a young man with unstable temperament. He felt nauseous when such a horrible father lay on his feet. I don't know how long he will have nightmares."
"And my mother-in-law at home, I always have to think a little more."
It's good to cut the Gordian knot, but he can't be the one holding the knife.
Xu Yu pursed his lips and remained silent.
Chen Jing'an was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something and opened his mouth wide. "So, you suddenly pretended to be sick and wanted to stay away from the front lines and not participate in the attack on Kyoto. Besides the reasons for the old prince, you also wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife?"
"Are you planning to have the young prince kill your father-in-law's entire family?"
Xu Yu's silence answered everything.
Chen Jing'an's features twisted for a moment, and after taking several deep breaths, he said quietly, "Why do I feel that after the young prince learns of your plan, his first reaction will be to kill you first?"
"Xu Yu, you're really asking for a beating for your despicable behavior of using someone else's knife to kill someone."
"You will be beaten to death by the young prince."
