My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Thinking of this, Gu Shaoyu squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, so he came up with an idea that surprised everyone present.

I think the real prince of the former dynasty should be someone we have met. The more blatant he is, the less likely he is to arouse suspicion. The Wei family may be an excellent breakthrough point.

After listening to Gu Shaoyu's words, Guo Xiang also agreed.

It makes sense. They have no way to seek refuge with the prince, and they only have an incompetent fourth prince in their hands. I don't think that old man Wei Taiwei is someone who simply gives up. Anyway, they all have to give it a try. If they can If he followed the former prince to rebel against Daxing, I'm afraid his achievements would be even higher than supporting the fourth prince to ascend to power.

Are you serious? But his granddaughter married the fourth prince and gave birth to a child. How can he be so ruthless even if he is connected by blood?

When Guo Silang said this, there was also some disbelief.

Once it is confirmed that the Wei family has really taken refuge with the former prince, it means that they have given up on the fourth prince. If one day they are discovered by the four princes and their party, wouldn't Wei Jialian be in danger?

It's a pity, Guo Xiang said with a sneer.

If you look at how the Wei family came to power, you should know that the Wei family has no face. The first generation is like this, the second generation is like this, and the third generation is like this. Hmm, you don't need face, let alone family ties.

Guo Xiang pointed out the thoughts of the Wei family to the point. Gu Shaoyu also believed in this, so he didn't waste any more words and just said it.

I will personally check whether the Wei family has taken refuge with the prince of the previous dynasty. As for the prince, Grandpa Guo still needs to be prepared and conduct a thorough investigation to be on the lookout for possible remnants of the previous dynasty. The East Palace is the one!”

Guo Xiang nodded and then said.

Don't worry, I will handle this matter. You and Vice General Ni are just two people. It will inevitably be difficult for the Chawei family. How about using the secret guards of the East Palace.

Guo Xiang also had good intentions, but Gu Shaoyu refused.

Two people are enough. The Wei family is not that capable to trap me.

Gu Shaoyu's confidence also stems from his ability, so after hearing this, Guo Xiang didn't force himself anymore.

After a simple farewell, Gu Shaoyu took Ni Yang and disappeared into the dark night. After Guo Xiang stood on his arms and watched their departure, he turned to give instructions to Guo Silang.

Commander Jin in the Imperial Guard is one of our own. When you go there tomorrow, you will tell him about the thorough investigation. This is the last line of defense for the imperial city and the East Palace. There must be no mistakes. Do you understand?

My grandson understands!

The night was dark, bringing with it the chill of winter.

There were gradually fewer pedestrians on the street, and the Duke's Mansion, which had been in the cold for a long time, also welcomed two uninvited guests.

Gu Shaoyu was very familiar with the Duke's Mansion, so even in the dark night, he could keep walking around inside. Soon, he took Ni Yang to Yunjin Courtyard.

Yunjinyuan is still the same as when they left, with no major changes.

There are palace lanterns hanging everywhere, and there is some rare calm and peace in the dark night, but this is just the surface.

There was no one in the main room, but there seemed to be a voice coming from an inconspicuous compartment. Gu Shaoyu and Ni Yang looked at each other and moved towards that place, but when Gu Shaoyu hid in When Corner peeked into the room secretly, he saw a scene that made him extremely angry.

Here in the cubicle, it seems that the house is not as well-off as the disgraced women in the mansion, and no one would have thought that the Duke of Guo in the Duke of Guo's residence would be huddled on the bed at this moment, his eyes full of horror and fear.

He had been sick for so long and was already skinny and emaciated, and now there were still some red slap marks on his face, which showed that he had suffered inhuman abuse.

If it weren't for the purpose of preventing the children from worrying, Mrs. Wei would have sent him underground to reunite with Mrs. Gu. At this moment, what Gu Shaoyu saw was Mrs. Wei slapping Shang Yukuan on the hospital bed one after another, even with disgust in her eyes. , said the man with foul language in his mouth.

Trash, what else do you do besides pooping on the bed all day long? Even if I hit you, my hands will be dirty!

Mrs. Wei was a little angry outside today, so she had nowhere to vent when she came back, so she found Shang Yukuan. In the past, she regarded her as the husband of heaven, but now he is just an ant beside her feet. She will trample him to death at any time. , so her anger came out freely.

Hmph, your precious son has been thinking about going against our Wei family and the fourth prince all day long. He is indeed a bitch born of a bitch. He is the same as his dead grandfather of the Gu family!

Now, I feel much more comfortable. A deadly trap has been set up in Sui'an City. When he comes back, he will definitely be dead! Hahaha, by the way, and his children are also unworthy. Pick up all the living trash and send them to reunite underground!

In the corner, Gu Shaoyu clenched his fists, but his breathing remained unchanged. However, Ni Yang, standing next to him, could feel that his general's anger had reached its peak. Mrs. Wei inside was afraid that There is no happy ending.

Shang Yukuan was now unable to speak easily. After hearing this, even if he wanted to ask a few questions, he was unable to do so. Therefore, he could only silently shed a few lines of clear tears, with endless regrets in his heart. When he was in extreme pain, he could not endure it. He couldn't help but cough a few more times.

Blood flowed down the corner of his mouth, and Shang Yukuan knew that he would not live long.

He had wanted to die for a long time. Living in such a undignified and tortured way was extremely satisfying. But thinking about it, he didn't know what the medicine in Mrs. Wei's hand was, which always made him sigh. , can't die.

Therefore, the thought of wanting to die but not being able to die tortured him even more.

Seeing Shang Yukuan in such pain, Mrs. Wei felt much better. After looking at him like a bug, she said to the slave who was serving him.

Just throw away those dirty and smelly beddings. They won't stink up Yunjin Courtyard and make me uncomfortable living there.

yes.

By way of metaphor, Shang Yukuan didn't know that Mrs. Wei's words meant that he was one of those dirty and smelly beddings, something that could be thrown away at will. His self-esteem was trampled on again, and he wanted to die. It rose again.

When he looked at Mrs. Wei again, her eyes became a little sharp.

It's a pity that all that was left for him was Mrs. Wei's departing back and the cold compartment, feeling lonely and sad, just like his entire later years.

After the people left, Vice General Ni said softly.

General, are you going to take the Duke away?

With their ability, it is not difficult to take away such a person, but there will be trouble later. (End of chapter)
