"Who is it?" Wen Tonghai didn't care much. Many people die every day; what was there to be happy about? Besides... thinking, a possibility suddenly occurred to him, "You...it's her?"
"Yes, that old woman who should have died long ago."
They did not directly mention the Empress Dowager's name, but they understood what each other meant.
Are you telling the truth?
"yes."
When did this happen?
“Yesterday morning.”
"How is that possible? The Empress Dowager is dead, how could there be no sound?"
Wen Tonghai couldn't believe it. Seeing his granddaughter's expression, Wang Li came in again and repeated what he had said not long ago.
Chen Siyuan waved for Wang Li to leave, and quietly looked at her grandfather. "Grandpa, do you also think this is strange?" Chen Siyuan had been happy all the way, but then she noticed something odd.
"Tell me what happened?" Wen Tonghai was an experienced man; he should be happy that his daughter had gotten her revenge. But if his granddaughter got involved, things would be bad.
"That day, the Emperor suddenly summoned me to the Imperial Study. It was no different from before; the previous two times he summoned me, I either stood or remained silent. This time, however, he spoke and gave me an imperial edict. Later, I went to the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, where she actually planned to reward me with the poisoned hairpin again. If I had known this before, I would have accepted it, but I couldn't tolerate it. I exposed the Empress Dowager's treachery on the spot. In the ensuing commotion, I deliberately broke the bracelet, letting everyone know that the Empress Dowager wanted to kill me..."
“You’ve been used,” Wen Tonghai said angrily.
"It is the Emperor."
Wen Tonghai considered a possibility, but unfortunately it was denied.
It lingered in my heart for a long time.
When Wenxuan was with Su Wen, he discovered the case concerning the Empress Dowager.
At the time, I thought it was unlikely, but now I realize that someone was plotting against them back then.
It is the Emperor.
After figuring everything out, Wen Tonghai suddenly realized that no matter how reasonable his actions were, it was normal for him to be taken advantage of.
What Wen Tonghai found hard to accept was that Wen Xuan was a Jinshi who hadn't even been officially employed and hadn't yet participated in the palace examination. Furthermore, how could Wen Xuan be so sure that he would tell him? And how could he be so sure that he would tell Chen Siyuan? And how could Chen Siyuan not be able to control herself from harming the Empress Dowager?
None of this has happened yet, so who can be so sure?
When the incident actually happened, he felt that the person who ultimately set the trap was the emperor, but he had no evidence and couldn't do anything to the emperor.
He was angry with the emperor, but the imperial edict seemed to be the key to his anger.
"Have you read the imperial edict?"
Thinking of the contents of the imperial edict and what Qiao Yuchen had said, Chen Siyuan could only lie, "No, the Emperor said we can't see it, we have to wait...wait..."
"Waiting for what?"
"We'll see after the Emperor passes away."
"Haha..." Wen Tonghai laughed, realizing that what he had given his granddaughter was his last will and testament.
What exactly is that old emperor up to?
Why give your granddaughter a will?
However, this is also a good thing.
At least during this period, even if someone discovers that their granddaughter is related to the Empress Dowager's death, they won't really do anything to their granddaughter.
"Take good care of your belongings, you absolutely cannot lose them."
"Yes." Chen Siyuan answered sincerely, and she could tell from her grandfather's expression what was going on.
Her grandfather didn't say anything, and she didn't ask.
She believes in living and doing things without leaving regrets, as many things can be accomplished in the future. All she wants now is for her family to be safe and sound; she asks for nothing else.
I talked to my grandfather for a long time, and he repeatedly told me not to go out unless there was something important to do, and to stay in the General's Mansion.
Chen Siyuan was very obedient, and she shared the same idea.
I specifically told my grandfather this news today; otherwise, she wouldn't have gone out at such a sensitive time.
When it was time to leave, her grandfather personally saw her off at the door, watched Chen Siyuan get into the carriage, and instructed Wang Li to go straight back to the General's Mansion.
Chen Siyuan had originally planned to visit her grandmother again, but seeing the situation, she would have to wait until next time.
She didn't know when.
What she didn't know was whether she would even be alive by then.
Sitting in the carriage, swaying gently, she thought about many things.
If anyone is hypocritical, Chen Siyuan thinks she is the most hypocritical one.
Everyone wears a mask of hypocrisy.
At this moment, Chen Siyuan was very impressed with herself.
She smiles on the surface but cries inside; even when she's frustrated to the point of collapse, she can still find a way to heal herself.
Now, as long as her family is safe, she can swallow all her grievances and bitterness. What she admires most about herself is that she can do all this and still look around with a smile as if nothing happened.
Make them all think they are heartless and innocent.
Back to the General's Mansion.
She arrived at Xiyuan and began to get busy.
Every day I'm either looking at the ledgers or drawing blueprints.
Wang Li was the one running around taking care of all these things, while Chunlan and Chunping served him around.
Jiang Ma makes all sorts of delicious food every day in different ways.
In just a few days, Chen Siyuan gained weight.
This is what people mean by being carefree and having a healthy body.
That day, just as we were about to eat, I glanced outside and realized that Qiao Yuchen hadn't returned for two days.
Chen Siyuan was somewhat worried.
"Black Hawk."
Black Hawk arrived quickly, "Young Madam."
"What is he busy with?"
"This..." Black Hawk knew, but couldn't say it out loud, and felt very distressed.
Is he still breathing?
