Black Moonlight, after her robbery
Chapter 257 The Truth
When the sun came out in the morning, Ti Zhen sat on a recliner and looked at the buds on the pomegranate tree. Some of them were already in full bloom.
Wen Xiu was skillful and weaved a flower basket with pomegranate branches. Wen Yuan only knew how to weave a garland and put it on his head to show off to Ti Zhen.
When he turned his face sideways, he glanced outside the courtyard without warning and said softly, "It's sunny, why are you here?"
Shi Shen lifted his robe and stepped over the threshold. His eyebrows were raised, and he was so shocked that he couldn't understand the situation for a moment. Ti Zhen started to ask, "Big brother?"
He asked again: "Didn't Yang Zuo say that you delivered the medicinal materials most of the night last night? Why are you here so early today?"
Shi Shen paused and asked her to come into the room first. Wen Yuan and Wenxiu had to step back first, holding the door gently when leaving.
The brother and sister sat opposite each other in front of each other. It was so quiet that they didn't know who spoke first.
Ti Zhen lowered his head, feeling that today was strange, so he pushed a cup of soup over first, "The pheasant soup was just cooked. The mushrooms in it were picked from Qianling. They were delivered quickly and are still very fresh. Brother Try it too.”
Shi Shen took it and picked up the spoon without much interest. He belatedly asked, "Sister, did His Highness come back to accompany you yesterday?"
The wind blew over, and the thin satin flapped on his arms. Ti Zhen brushed it and said, "He came back for a while, and then he said it was not good at Shili Gallery, so he left."
Unknowingly, he raised his eyelids and said, "Brother, why did you remember to ask him?"
Shi Shen shook his head, "It's nothing, I just thought... you are pregnant now. As a husband, he puts you first. What is he busy with outside all the time? Besides, the plague has been calmed down now."
Ti Zhen said disapprovingly: "Things in Chang'an are happening one after another. If one thing is appeased, there will be another one. It is a good thing to have more eyes."
Then he started talking about his own affairs, "I have also been thinking recently about moving some of the business in Chang'an to Luoyang. Huai'an has managed Luoyang very well. It's time to change the business."
Shi Shen didn't want to hear this, so he echoed a few words, "Chang'an is our hometown. If we move most of our lives to Luoyang, what about Chang'an?"
Ti Zhen said, "Chang'an has too many people and it is difficult to develop. In comparison, Luoyang's geographical location is better. Besides... we have to save a hand."
"There was a misfortune that day, and it wasn't that we didn't even have time to move. We only had enough supplies for the backup battlefield in the rear. We were more open to the game in Chang'an."
He started to remind him again, "Now that my brother is a sixth-grade official, he must remember even more in the officialdom - take one step at a time and see ten steps."
He took a sip of tea while talking to himself, "When His Highness comes back, I have to talk to him. I need to sort out the officials in Luoyang first, and -"
Before she could finish speaking, Shi Shen interrupted decisively, "Sister!"
Ti Zhen was shocked, "What's wrong?"
"Compared to what happened in Luoyang, are you really not alert now?"
Ti Zhen originally had a gentle smile, but when he said this, his eyelids suddenly twitched, "What am I wary of? Is there something going on that I don't know about?"
He simply couldn't hold it back and said it out in a breath, "You know clearly that Princess Ruyang is Zheng Mao's daughter, but you still... let His Highness go see her? Have you forgotten that she was also given to Duanhui by Emperor Gaozu? The prince chose the princess! They are getting involved together, what do the outsiders think?"
His voice sounded a little louder, "With her here, are you still the first wife?"
Ti Zhen was stunned by his unprecedented question, and his face was extremely embarrassed for a moment, "Why not? Even if outsiders look down on me and say that I am a Hu merchant, I am also a man who married into the prince's palace in a big sedan chair. !What am I afraid of?”
She turned her face away, "Is it possible that because of the annulled marriage contract, my life will be difficult for me? Now that we have parted ways, why should we hold on to it?"
Suddenly he glared at him, "Brother, it's so strange for you to say these things today!"
"I think I'm weird too, but how can you not be weird too!" Shi Shen gritted his teeth, "People say that if you are not poisonous, you will not be a husband. Since you have done it, you must do it! But since you were able to kill Zheng Mao and his relatives Zheng Mao, Xuan, why must we keep Zheng Nuo as a scourge?"
"Now that she is spending time with the Qin Dynasty in Shili Gallery, and they are very close to each other, you are not afraid that she will know what you have done, and she will avenge the Zheng family and file a complaint against you in front of His Highness!"
He snorted coldly, pinched her waist and leaned towards her.
"Besides, His Highness already feels guilty for her, and she also likes His Highness. When she chased His Highness to give her a token, do you think I didn't know that?"
He talked a lot, and Ti Zhen felt as if countless ice shards had been stuffed from the top of his head in the twelfth lunar month, and the bone-corrosive chill spread finely and quickly to his limbs. "How could you-"
How could his eldest brother know? She thought she had concealed it?
As long as she doesn't tell anyone, this secret will never be mentioned.
She stared at Shi Shen blankly, all the remaining memories seemed to have been crushed in her previous life.
Because no one understands better than her that the glass of wine Zheng Mao drank at the palace banquet was actually not poisonous, and her craftsmanship and eyeliner were not in the palace.
But why was the wine laced with arsenic?
It was just a blow. There was only a moment of argument before entering the palace. Yang Zu slapped the poison powder on Zheng Mao's hand. Zheng Mao, who was suffering from a cough, would naturally cover his mouth with his hand.
If the poison is on your mouth and your mouth is soaked in wine, you will naturally die.
The sulfur in Zheng Mao's kettle is even more effective as a cough inducer.
Only in this way can she blame Hu Yanyan for Zheng Mao's death and completely separate Wen Yu and Hu Yanyan.
Only in this way can she become his support and gain his unique trust.
Naturally, secretly, she also got rid of the biggest enemy who was most likely to prevent her from becoming a princess.
As for Zheng Xuan, he was just following the trend to prevent future troubles. The Cui family's killer in Jizhou was very straightforward. Wen Yu would not think of Naijin, but would only think that Jizhou was once the fiefdom of Hu Yanyan.
It's so far away... If she doesn't think about it carefully, she almost forgets that she did it.
She almost forgot that she was the princess's enemy who killed her father and wiped out her family.
In fact, she had some thoughts about the princess at first, but later she found out that she was innocent and kind, and she lost the family's support, so her wariness dissipated.
So she felt a lot of guilt for being so kind to the princess.
But what can't be cleansed is that she is a wicked person who ruined everything for her.
She turned her face and suddenly saw Yang Zuo's frightened eyes in the hazy curtain gap, like a deer caught in a trap, panicking.
He immediately asked: "Did you say that?"
Shi Shen interrupted her question, "I asked him because I was worried."
He said for a moment and looked at her face, "So why are you still hesitating now? Why don't you let someone do some tricks in the medicine and end her."
Ti Zhen immediately darkened his face, "I had no choice but to kill Zheng Mao and Zheng Xuan. I had to ensure that my political stance did not waver. At that time, I had to be cruel and had to do this, but..."
She hesitated for a moment with obvious guilt, and then continued to explain, "But what does my pursuit of fame and fortune have to do with the princess? Now that she has lost her parents and the support of her family, she can't make waves at all, and there is no threat to her. Under the circumstances, there is no need for me to embarrass an innocent woman, this is too petty."
"If you're not afraid of ten thousand, you're afraid of what may happen!" Shi Shen's brows tightened, his eyes darkened, and he was extremely angry, "There is no airtight wall in the world, it's better than if she knew she would cause trouble that day!"
He glanced sideways at her, "Or do you want His Highness to know that the person next to you killed the Zheng family and his own cronies?!"
Ti Zhen looked at him with focused eyes. For a moment, he felt that he had nothing to say. There were so many intricate connections in it that it was just a mess of words.
If Wen Yu knew, he would be very disappointed.
He was disappointed that he was regarded as a fool by her. In the end, the real careerist with the desire to swallow the sky was right next to his pillow. Even the person beside him had no scruples in deceiving him.
I'm just afraid that the sky is falling and I don't know where to go.
In the twilight, everything was strange and strange.Then a sharp voice called out, "Your Highness, why are you standing in the wind?"
Ti Zhen quickly turned his head, but before the door was completely closed - Wen Yu was standing outside the door!
In fact, I think some friends should have guessed the truth behind the deaths of Zheng Mao and Zheng Xuan.
Wen Xiu was skillful and weaved a flower basket with pomegranate branches. Wen Yuan only knew how to weave a garland and put it on his head to show off to Ti Zhen.
When he turned his face sideways, he glanced outside the courtyard without warning and said softly, "It's sunny, why are you here?"
