Chapter 134 Dao Mystery

Du Jingyi smiled and did not hide anything when facing Mrs. Xing.

"Yeah, two months."

Two months?! Madam Xing looked at her nephew with a click of the tongue, and then she laughed secretly.

"You...are quite considerate."

The men in the Gu family are all very capable, not only when it comes to fighting in battle, but also in their offspring.

Mrs. Gu had four sons and one daughter, and below her was a prosperous family of nine sons and one daughter.

If they had not died in battle a few years ago, I'm afraid there would be more than twenty great-grandchildren by now.

Thinking of this, a trace of sadness flashed across Mrs. Xing's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

I feel more relieved. After waiting for so long, I finally get the good news.

"No wonder I seemed to hear the call of a magpie when I went out today. It turned out to be such a good thing. I am really happy!"

Du Jingyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this.

"It's so cold, but my aunt can still hear the magpie's call. It's amazing!"

Shang Ji spoke first and expressed what his wife was thinking, but was met with a cold shoulder from Mrs. Xing.

"I said I heard it, so what? Are you doubting your aunt's hearing?"

"I dare not. Whatever my aunt says is what it is."

When facing Madam Xing, Shang Ji did not have the majesty of a general.

This sentence made everyone present laugh.

After her hands and body were warm, Mrs. Xing came over.

He looked at Du Jingyi carefully through his clothes, and then said with emotion.

"For so many years, I have been worried about this matter. I am afraid that something will happen to him in Cezhou. That will really be the end of the Gu family. Although the old lady didn't mention it, I can see that she is also very worried."

"Now that you are pregnant, no matter if it is a boy or a girl, at least Liu Lang will have a child. When I go back later, I will have someone send the news to the old lady, and she will definitely rush to Jinling City!"

When he said this, Shang Ji nodded in agreement.

However, he was still a little worried. If the news leaked out, it would be troublesome, so he replied.

"Let me handle this matter, it's safer."

When Mrs. Xing heard him speak, she suddenly understood something.

"So these days, you pretended to be sick to avoid Mrs. Wei and the others?"

"My aunt is really good at foresight. We are moving soon and don't want to cause any trouble."

When mentioning Madam Wei, Madam Xing had a look of disdain on her face. Even though Madam Wei had a noble status now, she still looked down on her.

"What are you afraid of? If she dares to play dirty, I'll show you how I'll deal with her!"

Mrs. Xing comes from the Gu family, so naturally her temper is not gentle and humble.

In her opinion, the reason why her cousin died of illness was, to put it bluntly, because of her own misfortune.

If she married into this family and caused such a mess, it would be strange if she didn't turn the whole family upside down.

Du Jingyi's affection for Madam Xing grew rapidly, but she was not someone who could be bullied, so she started to explain.

"Don't worry, aunt. I was the one who spread the news of Dong Yuan's illness in order to disrupt Madam Wei's plan. I'm afraid she is now thinking about how to use my father-in-law to control us and prevent us from leaving the Duke's Mansion."

"Could it be possible that she is going to poison her husband?"

Madam Xing raised her eyebrows and spoke sarcastically.

Unexpectedly, Shang Ji snorted coldly.

"No poison was used. I just arranged for someone to assassinate my father on his way back from court tomorrow."

Hearing this, Mrs. Xing, who had seen a lot of ups and downs, was so surprised that she was speechless.

"Is this woman crazy? She has gone to great lengths to snatch her husband, but now she wants to find someone to assassinate him just to delay you?"

Shang Ji's investigation was thorough, so there must be no falsehood, so he had already made all the arrangements and was waiting for Mrs. Wei to be arrested.

Du Jingyi added a sentence.

"She doesn't necessarily really care about her father-in-law. Maybe they just have their own needs."

The Duke was attracted by her tenderness, and she admired the Duke's high position at a young age.

There may have been times when true feelings were expressed in the past, but as time passed and the trivialities of the harem wore away, no matter how much or how deep the feelings were, they were nothing more than covering themselves with a quilt and sleeping on the same bed.

To be honest, this is probably a typical case of sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams.

"How ridiculous! If the old Duke were still alive, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood if he saw his descendants being so unpresentable!"

As soon as these words came out, Shang Ji fell silent.

He didn't spend much time with his grandfather, but his maternal grandfather told him a lot about his grandfather since he was a child.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Therefore, his grandfather is still a very great figure in his heart.

It seemed that all the smoke from the Shang family's ancestral tombs came down on the old Duke's head alone, so his younger brother was useless, his son was the same, and his grandson also died young.

Mrs. Xing was in an unstable mood and took several sips of tea before she could suppress her anger.

"So what are you thinking? Do you want to sabotage this assassination?"

Du Jingyi smiled and shook his head.

"The general will protect my father-in-law's life, and I have arranged a good show for Madam Wei and the fifth room. If my aunt has nothing to do, she can come and join in the fun."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xing's interest, which was only 30% originally, increased to 80%.

Seeing Du Jingyi smiling like a fox, he immediately agreed readily.

"Okay, tomorrow, right? I'll definitely come and join in the fun then."

The Duke was assassinated in the street. This is no small matter.

The news would surely spread quickly, and she wouldn't need to inquire about it, because her son, who loved to wander around, would rush to bring her the news.

The three of them looked at each other, and this war without gunpowder smoke finally began.

In the Yunjin Courtyard.

Mrs. Wei had a serious illness some time ago. Although she has recovered now, she has lost a lot of weight and does not look as plump and well-maintained as before.

Especially after the mask of hypocrisy was torn off, even his appearance looked a little mean.

She had no idea that the assassination she had planned for so long had already been thoroughly investigated by Shang Ji and Du Jingyi. All she could think about was how she was going to watch the show in Dongyuan when the time came.

"Is everything arranged?"

"Madam, don't worry. Everything has been arranged. I have used many connections to find this person. I will know the severity of the situation before I take action."

"That's good."

Now, the identity of this young master still belongs to Shang Ji, so she won't be so stupid as to let Shang Yukuan die, otherwise wouldn't it be paving the way for Dongyuan?

So, it’s best to be injured but not die.

It can both contain Dongyuan and prevent Dongyuan from succeeding.

It's a pity that she doesn't know what kind of storm she will face tomorrow, and still thinks she is unparalleled in wisdom and strategy.

Shang Liuniang is as confident as her.

Ever since Room Five was cleared out, she had begun to sense that something was amiss.

Therefore, even she herself did not join in the fun of building the golden statue in Heirangji Temple, and it was let go.
