Mrs. Shizi, she has excellent acting skills

Chapter 280 280 Instigation
When Mrs. Zhao and Su Niang arrived at the study, they only saw a black figure hurrying out, followed by Qiu Rong who was about to leave.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Su Niang grabbed Qiu Rong's sleeve and asked, "Is that the young master just now? It's late at night, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Qiu Rong hesitated and couldn't say a word.

If he told the truth, I'm afraid the Fourth Young Master would be the first to spare him.

"Outside...there is something urgent outside..." Qiu Rong hesitated and gave an unconvincing excuse.

Zhao really didn't believe it.

Her temperament has always been like dough, extremely soft.

But this time, she rarely lost her temper.

Her bones hadn't recovered yet, but she still spent the whole afternoon cooking soup for Chen Wen.

Moreover, during this period of time, she could ignore Chen Wen's indifference and alienation towards her.

She asked Qiu Rong: "Tell me the truth, where did the young master go? I have already inquired, and the Hou Mansion did not arrange an errand for him."

Qiu Rong scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, very embarrassed.

Facing Zhao's questioning, he had no choice but to be ruthless and said: "You might as well ask the young master directly."

After saying that, he rubbed the soles of his feet with oil and ran away in a hurry.

Zhao's face turned pale with anger, and she wanted to catch up, but was caught by Su Niang.

Mrs. Zhao clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles turned white, and said through gritted teeth, "Today I must find out what important business he is doing outside? He doesn't even want me and Sister Rui!"

Seeing Mrs. Zhao bit her lips to the point of bleeding, Su Niang felt very distressed.

If she told Zhao the truth now, Zhao's life might be lost.

She had no choice but to comfort Mrs. Zhao in a gentle voice and persuade Mrs. Zhao to go back quickly.

Chen Wen rushed to the Zhuangzi outside without stopping.

Although he had a rift with Cheng Yushu in his heart, the worry and tension at this moment were not feigned at all.

Heart beating like a drum, he rushed into Cheng Yushu's boudoir, and immediately saw Cheng Yushu lying on the bed, dying.

At this moment, Chen Wen forgot everything, rushed over, hugged her in his arms, and asked with distress and worry: "What's going on? I haven't seen you for a few days, why did you make yourself look like this?" appearance?"

Cheng Yushu cried into tears in Chen Wen's arms, and complained aggrievedly: "I thought you didn't want me anymore, and you never came to see me."

"How could it be?" Chen Wen thought of what Cheng Yushu had given him, and almost harmed the Hou Mansion.

It's a pity that Zhuang Er didn't know where he went, otherwise he could ask Zhuang Er.

Besides him and Cheng Yushu, only Zhuang Er had handled that thing.

Perhaps it was Zhuang Er and Lin Haotong who cooperated internally and externally, trying to murder the Hou Mansion.

He used countless excuses to excuse Cheng Yushu, but he still couldn't pass the test in his heart.

After hesitating for a long time, he still asked: "The thing you gave me last time and asked me to put it in Fifth Brother's study, do you know what is inside?"

Cheng Yushu opened his eyes wide, and said innocently: "I don't know, I haven't opened it to look after Mrs. Rong gave it to me. Why, have you seen what's inside?"

Chen Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and asked tentatively, "Do you know the eighth young master of the Duke of Anguo's mansion?"

Cheng Yushu pushed Chen Wen angrily, and suddenly became agitated, "Wen Lang, who do you think I am? Although I am not a lady from a rich family, I still know etiquette, justice and shame! Since I followed you, Go get to know what Eighth Young Master is doing? Who do you take me for? I might as well be hanged with a rope!"

Cheng Yushu's face was flushed with excitement, and he was desperately going to find the rope, as if he would rather be broken than broken.

Chen Wen hurriedly hugged her: "It's my fault, I'm thinking wildly, don't care about me like me, I will never doubt you again!"

Cheng Yushu calmed down, "You haven't come over for a few days, did something happen? Even Zhuang Er didn't come over."

Chen Wen pursed his lips, and told Cheng Yushu exactly what happened in Chen Feng's study that day.

Cheng Yushu had already known about this from Lin Haotong.

She pretended to be furious, "It must be that bastard Zhuang Er! I don't know who bought it, but he has the audacity to do such a thing! Wen Lang, now my honor and disgrace are tied to you, how could I do such a thing?" What's wrong with the Hou family? Besides, Mrs. Hou is my aunt, and I will never do anything to offend my aunt."

Chen Wen stroked Cheng Yushu's hair, and said softly, "I know, you definitely didn't do it. Now that Zhuang Er is absconding in fear of crime, who else could he be?"

Cheng Yushu made a heartbroken look, "It must be him, and I think the eighth young master of Dingguo's mansion was also deceived by Zhuang Erqiao. Otherwise, the Lin family and the Hou's mansion have no grievances, so why did they come to harm the Hou's mansion?"

Chen Wen nodded thoughtfully, "You're right."

Cheng Yushu lowered his voice: "And you said that Shizi's people came in and beat you up at that time, saying that you were thieves, do you believe it?"

Chen Wen frowned, of course he didn't believe it.

But what happened that day was his fault. Even if he knew that Chen Feng did it on purpose, he didn't dare to confront Chen Feng and make trouble for Chen Feng.

Cheng Yushu smiled secretly, and continued to put on eye drops: "Wen Lang, the prince didn't take you seriously at all, that's why he did such a thing. He was simply avenging his own personal revenge! Wen Lang, you should be more careful in the future, don't be caught He calculated."

The evil fire in Chen Wen's heart was picked up by Cheng Yushu. He stood up suddenly, his eyes were filled with anger, "I am his elder brother after all! How could he treat me like this!"

Cheng Yushu raised the corners of his mouth, and pulled Chen Wen to sit down, "Yes, he just took up the status of a descendant, what's the big deal? Speaking of which, he has several older brothers, how can the position of the son of the world be rotated?" How about getting him? According to me, you can also fight for that position."

Chen Wen was stunned for a moment, his anger disappeared in an instant, and he muttered, "How can I win..."

Cheng Yushu raised his voice, "Why can't you? You used to be too dormant, and you didn't show yourself, so the people in the Hou Mansion thought you were not qualified. With your ability and the backing of Prince Gong, you are still afraid What?"

Chen Wen was dumbfounded: "My lord...how could he help me?"

Cheng Yushu smiled, "Why not? Madam Rong said she would help you, as long as you can help the prince with a few things."

Under Cheng Yushu's persuasion, Chen Wen repeatedly promised to be loyal to Prince Gong.

On this day, Fu Zhao took Siqi to the study in the front yard again.

Now she came more frequently, and sometimes she would run into Chen Feng when she came back in the evening.

She just walked to the side of the study when Mingyue rushed to her and knelt down straight.
