The daughter-in-law of the right prime minister swore solemnly, "Of course, how dare my daughter forget this matter?
But we still need to think long-term. Right now, the Qiao family is the biggest threat, and we must find a way to get rid of them."
The head of the Wen family really couldn't understand why his daughter, who was always smart, was so persistent in this matter?
As for them and the Qiao family, apart from the excessive behavior of their own son this time, they did not have much hatred in the past. Even if there were some conflicts between their nephew Le and the young men of the Qiao family, and their nephew's son-in-law had gone to Yumancang to pick out bones, the adults had stepped forward to resolve it. It could never come to the point where you have to live with me.
Moreover, every time it was their nephew, son-in-law and nephew who took the initiative to provoke, so naturally they had to bear the consequences of others' retaliation.
But he really couldn't understand why his daughter was so determined to suppress the Qiao family?
Isn't it unreasonable to let the daughter retaliate just because the Qiao family has never attacked her nephew's son-in-law?
Patriarch Qiao looked at her suspiciously and asked what was on his mind: "Are you hiding something from your father?"
Wen looked away but retorted, "Dad, how could that be? How could I hide it from you? I'm just angry that a small Qiao family dares to snatch our Wen family's business one after another.
They are just short of robbing us. Everyone in Beijing knows that the rouge and powder business belongs to our Wen family. Who dares to interfere? But the Qiao family is so ungrateful! Isn't it right for my daughter to ask my eldest brother to teach them a lesson? "
"What's the result? We have become a joke. I don't care what your reasons are, but the actions against the Qiao family will be temporarily stopped.
This matter has already attracted the attention of His Majesty, and we must stop. Yun'er, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. "
Wen gritted her teeth and said inwardly, "She also wanted to take it slow, but God didn't give her time! In just one year, the Qiao family has grown so terrifyingly. If they are allowed to continue to develop, who can be their opponent?"
The thought of the news she had sent people to find out made her heart tremble!
Who would have thought that 20 years ago, during the chaos and war, the child whom she secretly put down in the carriage could still survive in the troubled times.
The child who should have died under the horse's hooves was actually saved by the Qiao father and daughter.
Now, not only is he alive, he has also become a new favorite in the eyes of His Majesty. Not only has he made great military achievements, but he is now in charge of an army.
His achievements are no less than his father's!
If he returns to his family in the future, how will they survive? The two old guys in the family don't like them, so it's possible that they will be killed!
Why do that bitch’s two sons have such a good life?
It’s all Qiao Xin’s fault for meddling in other people’s business!
This Qiao Xin is her nemesis! If she hadn't appeared and saved that bitch child one after another, her plan would have succeeded long ago!
An'er had long been the only legitimate son of the Marquis's family.
In the end, Wen did not tell the truth to her father. She returned to the prime minister's residence with a heavy heart, but was told by the servants that the Qiao family had sent someone to deliver a letter and asked her to read it personally!
I wanted to ask the servant to return it, but after hesitating for a moment, I decided to open it and take a look!
"You little whore, you are going too far!" Wen was shocked and angry.
The personal nanny came in immediately to inquire about the situation, but was stopped by her.
"Mammy, please prepare a hundred thousand taels of silver for me, it will be useful later."
The nanny was horrified and replied subconsciously: "Madam has so much money, the mansion can't withdraw it for the time being!"
"You don't need to use the money from the mansion. Just take it out from my room and don't tell anyone!"
"Why... girl? Is it your uncle who wants it? He wouldn't spend 20,000 taels at once."
Wen held her forehead exhaustedly and waved her hand at him, "It's not for my eldest brother, don't ask, I'll explain it to you later!"
Nanny subconsciously understood that her master was in trouble, and now she could only help her stabilize the situation before considering other things!
As soon as the nanny left, Wen completely collapsed on the ground, shocked and terrified.
How could others know that the death of Dingbian Marquis's original wife was related to her? Didn't that dead old woman Shi Ma die for her master? How could she survive such a huge fire?
What about Ding, is she also alive?
Mrs. Ding, the wife of Dingbian Hou, was also asking this question! She also received the same letter!
The other party asked her to prepare 20,000 taels of silver and put it next to the泔水桶 in Tui'er Hutong.
If she doesn't obey, everyone in the capital will hear about her ugly deeds tomorrow. My elder sister's personal nanny will also be sent to Jingzhao Prefecture to beat the drum to complain!
The other party is barefoot and is not afraid of those who wear shoes. It is clear that she will fight to the death if she can't get the money!
No, that wouldn't happen. If she were alive, why wouldn't she come back to find Heng Wen?
But she didn't dare to gamble, as she had only heard the servant's family say it and had not seen with her own eyes that it was the nanny's body.
When they fled during the war, Heng Wen was only one year old and Qiao Yunxin was already five years old. If the Marquis had not been in danger, and her elder sister had not been so eager to save her husband and had great trust in her, how could she have left her two sons to her care without hesitation and stayed behind to fight the enemy.
Along the way, everyone was in a panic. Even if the eldest sister stayed behind with enough preparations and manpower, there would always be times of carelessness. Qiao Yunxin was lost due to her intentional or unintentional actions.
If she wasn't afraid that people would notice her purpose, even Heng Wen might have died.
Anyway, everyone was busy escaping for their own lives along the way, and the deaths and disappearances of children from noble families were common, and it wasn't just their group.
Just when she was about to repeat the same trick, her eldest sister returned to the team. When she learned that her eldest son was missing, she went crazy on the spot.
The eldest sister wanted to go back to look for him regardless of the consequences, but was stopped by her husband.
Everyone knew that it wouldn't work. The pursuers from Beirong were not far away from them. If they went back now, not to mention whether they could find the children, there was no guarantee that they could survive!
When facing the pain of losing a child, men are always more rational than women, and are the first to accept the reality and get out of the pain!
Marquis Dingbian made a prompt decision and knocked out his eldest sister. He could not risk everyone's lives for the sake of a child whose whereabouts were unknown.
Because of this incident, the couple no longer had the loving relationship they once had, and she completely created a rift between them.
At that time, my elder sister was still immersed in the pain of losing her child. In addition to taking care of Heng Wen every day, she was thinking about finding her child, and her relationship with her husband became increasingly strained.
This gave her the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. As a concubine sister living in Heng Mansion, she had long fallen in love with her brother-in-law. The excuse of visiting her elder sister and nephew was just an excuse for her to come to Heng Mansion to see her lover.
The elder sister was generous and kind-hearted, and she never doubted her younger sister. After all, she had always been kind to her since she was a child. Every time they quarreled, the younger sister would persuade them from both sides.
