Second Married Dandy: She went crazy to kill the eldest daughter

Chapter 157
Dongfang Yuebai sneered. Although he didn't speak, the sneer was extremely harsh.

When Dongfang Zhi saw that things had failed, he simply stopped pretending and said with a straight face, "Now my second wife only has one son left. Since you married into the Duke's Palace, you have the responsibility to contribute to the Duke's Palace. However, You’re helping me, isn’t that what you should do?”

He stared at Su Chengying gloomily, with the arrogance of an elder, "Today you didn't protect Sister Lu carefully, and I didn't blame you at all. Now you help me keep Brother Qiu, isn't it right?"

When Su Chengying heard this, she smiled and said, "Second Master should know what the consequences will be if my sister is betrayed and cheated. Second Master doesn't want to be a cruel and unfeeling father, so why should he put all the blame on me?"

Dongfang Zhi gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, "You are so cold-blooded!"

"Since the second master said so, I will say a few more words. The reason why the second wife is crazy is because she has a guilty conscience..." Su Chengying still looked calm and calm, "I want to live in peace with the second wife, so I have never said what I shouldn’t have said, but if the second master insists on tearing his face apart, I naturally don’t mind going to confront the second master in front of the old lady.”

The sudden threat was like a huge stone pressing on Dongfang Zhi's heart.

He had suspected it when his second wife Sun went crazy, but he didn't expect it to be related to Tao Xiu's death!
Dongfang Zhi squeezed the hand on his son's shoulder and tightened it uncontrollably, but his face was stubborn and he said harshly, "The man has gone crazy. Naturally, Her Highness the Princess will do whatever she says."

"It doesn't matter if the second master doesn't believe it..." Su Chengying said calmly, "Anyway, as long as I wait until the old lady is in front of me, I can find a way to make the old lady believe it is true."

"Dad, we can't let her tell the old lady, no..." Dongfang Junqiu was really scared and held Dongfang Zhi's hand tightly, so hard that the back of Dongfang Zhi's hand turned blue.

He also overheard his mother talking to the mother next to him about using Tao Xiu to kill Su Chengying. Later, his mother went crazy, but Su Chengying was still fine...

Seeing his son like this, Dongfang Zhi already had the answer, and his heart was in a mess, and he had no words anymore.

Su Chengying was not afraid of getting in front of the old lady, but she didn't want the Duke's Mansion to turn into a mess of internal disintegration. Nowadays, there were external troubles, and if internal troubles recurred, the Duke's Mansion, which was already an empty shell, would not be able to sustain it. how long?

Su Chengying has no feelings for Guogongfu, but if she wants to stand firm in Beiliang, she must make Guogongfu a strong backing.

Besides, the old lady treated her well, and she couldn't bear to see the Duke's mansion fall apart with her own eyes during her lifetime.

In the main courtyard, after learning about this, the old lady asked Mother Zhang to call Dongfang Zhi in front of her.

As soon as he saw his mother, Dongfang Zhi couldn't help but knelt down and cried, "Mother..."

Before Dongfang Zhi could finish speaking, the old lady interrupted, "Do you know why I want Brother Qiu to go to the clan?"

Dongfang Zhi was stunned and didn't know how to answer.

The old lady seemed to have known for a long time that she would not get the answer, so she paused and continued, "Today you lost Sister Lu, so you wanted to keep your only son, so you gave Brother Qiu the news in advance and asked him to come and ask for help. I, I understand your good intentions as a father, but you don’t know that once Brother Qiu stays, he will be the next trouble for the Duke’s mansion.”

Dongfang Zhi defended, "Mother, Brother Qiu did some things because he was too lazy to eat, but it will never hurt the thoughts of the Duke's government!" "It doesn't exist now, but it doesn't mean there won't exist in the future. Although you taught him to come to me to beg for mercy, but If he really cared about his sister, how could he not ask? If he really cared about the relationship between mother and son with Mrs. Sun, how could he be so cruel that he didn't even take a look at her these days? "

Dongfang Zhi froze on the spot, speechless.

"Such a cruel heir will become a disaster sooner or later if he stays in the Duke's mansion. Even if he doesn't have the ability and brains, it doesn't mean that others won't take advantage of him. Sister Lu is a good example." Didn't the old lady know? , Sister Lu was actually bewitched by others.

"Would mother rather trust an outsider than give her own family a chance?" Dongfang Zhi did not dare to refute his mother's words, but he was unwilling to do so.

The old lady knocked the teacup in her hand heavily on the table, causing tea to splash everywhere.

"To you, Princess Shengtang is indeed an outsider, but when someone plots against the Duke's Palace, she is the one who steps forward. She does have her plans, but as long as her heart is towards the Duke's Palace, I As long as you live, you will protect her!"

The old lady had actually figured out what happened today. It was Su Chengying who designed her to deliberately hear what Sister Lu said, but so what?

If Sister Lu didn't have such thoughts, how could she be afraid of others listening.

"Over the years, I thought that as long as I kept a low profile in the Duke's Mansion, I would be able to avoid trouble. But now it seems that I was wrong. Concubine Ren arranged the Liu family into the Duke's Mansion. There is nothing in the Duke's Mansion anymore. Taiping, I raised you so weak that you couldn’t help but..."

Dongfang Zhi said quickly, "What mother did was all for the sake of the Duke's government. There is absolutely nothing wrong with her."

The old lady smiled helplessly, "Look, if something goes wrong, you only come to comfort me, but no one can help me with advice like the Princess of the Tang Dynasty."

Dongfang Zhi said weakly, "After all, mother still prefers outsiders."

The old lady's voice was cold, "It is this outsider you call the current Duke's Mansion!"

Over the years, the eldest lady Liu took the dowry left by Dongfang Yuebai's mother and took it into the hands of the second prince. She kept silent, but it did not mean that she was really old and confused.

The old lady originally thought that as long as the second prince saw the money, the Duke's Palace would be stable, but today she realized how wrong she was. Before the Second Prince could drain the Palace of the Duke, Concubine Liu Ren dared to Such a calculation was so profound that if the government really couldn't pay for it, Concubine Liu Ren would not stay in the government for one more day.

Hidden dangers are looming, and the only way to save the government is to get the Duke's Mansion back on its feet!
"Brother Qiu can at least save his life by sending him to the clan. Otherwise, he won't even know who will take advantage of him in the future." The old lady looked at her son kneeling in front of her faintly, and said earnestly, "I know you It's not easy to be a father, but since you have failed to take good care of your heirs, you must not let go of the ancestors in the ancestral hall. I have arranged for you a few people who can renew your marriage. You can do it by yourself tomorrow. Go and have a look."

"Mother……"

"You must learn to look forward. Extend your own heirs, make the Dongfang family prosperous, and maintain the status of the Duke's Palace in Shangjing. This is what you, a junior, should do."
