Chapter 136 The Secret of the Stormy Night
"Tell me, where did you get this last child?" The great tyrant did not expect that after two months of investigation, he would unexpectedly discover an extremely important clue today.
"I picked it up from the street in the north of the city on a stormy night. It was not stolen, it was really not stolen, your Majesty, please understand." The thin girl kowtowed.
Her head was worn out.
She had a very deep impression of this child. This was the only child whose origin was unknown and she picked it up.
As for who Xu gave the child to and where she sent the child to, she knew nothing.
The great tyrant ordered the old woman to be taken away and executed directly.
"Bang!"
The cup in the hands of the great uncle fell and broke.
Aunt Xin glanced at him: "Master, what are you doing?"
[Hehe, Uncle is panicking]
[Of course he is panicking, it was a rainy night, North City Street, it is the deepest secret in Uncle's heart]
The big tyrant's heart was pounding.
Does Uncle have anything to do with this?
As the big tyrant glanced at him coldly, the big uncle was frightened and his face turned pale, "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with me, I didn't participate, I didn't participate at all."
"Then why are you panicking?"
The big uncle's face fell.
How should he explain?
The big tyrant's sword eyebrows moved slightly, and his face showed no emotion, "Uncle, up to now, you seem to have not explained to me why you want to buy a child."
"It's to get a child. This matter has nothing to do with what I told the mother-in-law."
The more the big uncle said this, the more suspicious the big tyrant became.
[Tsk tsk tsk, fate has its way. If the secret is not solved, it will damage my uncle's good deeds. He will not be able to have descendants in this life.]
[If my uncle thinks it through and solves the secret and gets rid of the bad karma, I can help him...]
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Concubine De looked at the eldest uncle and sighed, "Uncle, as a woman, I have something to advise you."
The eldest uncle nodded blankly, "Your Majesty, Concubine De is too polite. You may as well speak frankly."
"God is watching what you do. The Grand Uncle's Mansion has been so unstable recently. His son is not happy and he can't have children. Has Grand Uncle ever thought that maybe he has not accumulated blessings to pass on to future generations, which has led to the decline of his descendants and the extinction of the incense?"
De Fei said faintly, which made Grand Uncle panic.
God is watching what you do...
blessings...
"If Grand Uncle is not convenient to tell us, why not go to Taoist Baiyun to talk to him? What if, I mean what if, after that incident is over, the Grand Uncle's Mansion has descendants again, wouldn't that be a great joy?
You can think of ways to adopt children, why don't you try to resolve your own knot?"
[My mother is really considerate. She can think of the past from Uncle's words]
[My mother is really smart]
De Fei lowered her eyes and smiled.
The eldest uncle's heart was pounding.
Concubine De was right.
In fact, he had thought about having another child over the years.
But every time he thought about having a child, he couldn't help but think back to what happened that night.
He was so scared that he didn't have the heart to have one.
"Uncle, I'm not saying anything to you, but you are a grown man, but you are more nagging than a woman. If you have something to say, just say it directly. Even if the sky falls, I will still hold it up. What are you hesitating about?" The eldest uncle
sighed.
"I can make it clear in advance. No matter what happens, I will not hold you responsible."
The eldest uncle was relieved now.
Aunt Xin snorted, "Master, what are you hiding from us? Just tell us."
[He doesn't dare to say it, hahaha, how dare he say it]
[It makes me so anxious, my uncle needs stimulation, watch me]
"Laugh... laugh... laugh." A Bao raised her head and pulled the corner of the clothes of the great uncle.
The great uncle was annoyed.
"My little princess, your uncle is in trouble now, he definitely can't laugh." Aunt Xin didn't understand what A Bao meant.
But the great uncle understood.
He quickly covered A Bao's mouth.
"Mmmm."
Little ancestor, don't say it, don't say it.
God.
How did this ancestor know Xiaoxiao?
[Xiaoxiao, hehe, this is the nickname of that woman]
The great tyrant and Concubine De looked at the great uncle solemnly.
Aunt Xin directly took action to pull the great uncle away.
"Don't look at me like that, I'll tell you what I'm talking about." Before the uncle spoke, sweat broke out on his forehead. "Speaking of which, it should have been 20 years ago, in the seventh month of the lunar calendar. It rained heavily that night. I drank too much and staggered to the North Street at night. Then I fell drunk in front of a ruined temple and slept."
The three looked at the uncle.
The uncle sighed heavily.
"That night, because it was raining heavily, there was no one on the street. The raindrops fell on me and woke me up.
From a distance, I vaguely saw a carriage parked in front of the ruined temple.
The wind was blowing hard and lifted the curtains on the carriage. I... I saw... a pregnant woman."
The uncle's expression became serious when he talked about this.
The tyrant listened attentively.
Twenty years ago, pregnant.
Unborn child.
The third child is already 20 years old this year.
He didn't believe it would be such a coincidence.
"A pregnant woman gave birth to a child, and the dead woman took it away and gave it to Xu?" The tyrant couldn't help it.
The eldest uncle shook his head, "No, when I saw that woman, she was already dead.
It was as if her stomach had been ripped open and the baby ripped out alive.
And there were two babies in the carriage at the time.
Because I was drunk at the time, I heard the cries of two children."
Over the years, he often thought about this. He
was sure that it was the sound of two children, not just one.
"I had a splitting headache at the time, and it was raining very heavily, but when I heard the sound and went to see, I only saw a child held by a woman."
The great tyrant anxiously: "Who is that woman?"
"Yun... Yun Ting."
The eldest uncle said a little stiffly.
Several questions popped up in the tyrant's mind: "Who is Yun Ting? Isn't it that thin woman?"
"No, the thin woman must have taken one away in advance, and when I went to see, the remaining one was held by Yun Ting.
She is the wife of Lord Zhao, oh no, ex... ex-wife."
"The ex-wife of Zhao Yin of Ning'an Marquisate?"
Zhao Yin is a hereditary marquis.
A fourth-rank official.
The uncle nodded, "Yes, that's him, Zhao Yin."
The great tyrant pondered, "I have heard about this man's ex-wife. I heard that he divorced his first wife and made the second wife his concubine."
[Good man, isn't this a typical role of favoring a concubine and destroying his wife?]
"Uncle, may I ask, the 'Yun Ting' you mentioned is the younger sister of Yun Ci, the wife of Lord Luo, the Minister of Personnel, right?"
The great uncle nodded, "That's her."
"De Fei, do you know Yun Ting?"
De Fei nodded, "Back then, the Yun family was a wealthy business, starting with the aquatic products business. The two girls of the Yun family were very famous in the capital, and they were a pair of sisters.
The elder sister Yun Ci married the Luo family, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
The younger sister Yun Ting married Lord Zhao of the Ning'an Marquisate.
Later, the Yun family's business ran into problems, and the family fell into decline. Some died, some broke up. Yun Ci was lucky, and Lord Luo treated her very well.
But the younger sister Yun Ting was different.
She had a very hard life."
