Your Majesty, this outer room is painting a pie for you again!

Chapter 20 How could the Duke of Dingguo tolerate such humiliation?
  The royal battle was huge, and the tonics sent were extremely generous.

You know, it is a great honor for Duke Dingguo and his two sons to die guarding the border. Naturally, the royal family wants to make a good appearance.

As for the thoughts behind it, everyone is well aware of it.

After the old lady woke up, she was lying on the bed so listlessly. Even the imperial doctor looked at her and warned the nanny who was waiting beside her to calm down the Duke's wife. Otherwise, it would be harmful to health and useless.

After the imperial doctor left, Grandma Rongyang wiped her tears and came to the old lady.

"Old madam, you have to take care of your health. We still need you to take care of me in this house."

But the old lady still had no reaction, which made Grandma Rongyang anxious.

It happened that Fu Yubai came to greet him at this moment, and Grandma Rongyang hurriedly saluted.

"Third Master, Old Madam... please open your mind to Old Madam. Even for the sake of the three young masters, Old Madam cannot fall."

Fu Yubai also understood this. He nodded and looked at the old lady. He knew how uncomfortable his mother felt, but the current situation was like this, and people still had to move back.

"Mother."

The old lady heard Fu Yubai's voice, and then she blinked her dry eyes and looked at Fu Yubai.

Fu Yubai stepped forward and held her hand.

"Mother, please relax. With your son here, the Duke's Palace will not fall into such a passive situation again."

The old lady's tears fell instantly, and she looked extremely sad.

She never expected that Duke Dingguo's mansion would be so accommodating and would not even ask for justice for the sons and gentlemen of the mansion, but the people behind them still would not let them go and even put evil ideas into the children's heads. On your body!

How could this not be hateful?

She sat up with Fu Yubai's help. Although there was still heavy sadness on her face, her eyes had become sharp.

As the wife of Duke Dingguo, how could she be a weak person?
  "But have you ever thought about who it is?"

Fu Yubai paused when he heard this, and after a while he glanced in the direction of the imperial city.

The old lady seemed to have guessed it early, and she just sneered.

"They are forcing us, right?"

Fu Yubai didn't say much when he heard this.

The royal family wanted to control everything, and Duke Dingguo was a follower who accompanied the former emperor in his battles. Even the current new emperor would not dare to take action against Duke Dingguo no matter what.

But the imperial power was wary of Duke Ding's mansion. After all, millions of troops at the border obeyed Duke Duke's orders!

So in the end, Duke Dingguo also embarked on the road of tragic death. Fu Yubai was not unaware of the twists and turns, but in order to protect the son of the family, they did not ask further questions. Is there some conspiracy behind the death of the two sisters-in-law?
  Duke Dingguo can tolerate all this!
  But now the three children have been devoured by people's words and have almost lost their self-confidence, and have even gradually moved towards the path of playboys. Is it possible that the Duke of Dingguo still has to endure it?
  Could it be that the Duke of Dingguo's mansion can only comply with the wishes of his superiors by exterminating all the people in his family?
  If this is the case, then Fu Yubai will break the news!
  Let’s see how it happens above!

"Mother, the matter has come to this, and our concession will not make them relent."

So why give in anymore?
  How could the old lady not know?
  She raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face and finally nodded.

"Just do it."

Fu Yubai knew how much effort it took for his mother to say these words, but their Dingguo Palace could no longer wait, nor could they endure being plotted like this!
  "Mother rests peacefully. Now everyone in the capital knows that the old lady of Dingguo Palace is unwell, so there is no need for mother to support her."

The old lady nodded.

When Fu Yubai turned around to leave, the old lady reminded her: "That girl... you're welcome." Fu Yubai hummed and then left.

Aunt Rongyang wiped the tears on her face and stepped forward to help the old lady get up.

"Old lady, you have suffered."

After hearing this, the old lady just laughed, with irony in her smile.

"I thought if I swallowed my anger, at least they would leave my Fu family a way to survive, but now... they are forcing the Fu family to die!"

"No, madam, the third master is so smart. Even the Duke of Guo praised the third master more than the other two masters when he was still alive, so the third master must have a way!"

Of course the old lady knows, but she just can't swallow this breath.

Even though they have already given in, the other party still wants to kill them all! If that's the case, don't blame the Duke's government for counterattacking!
  The rumors in the capital are still going on, and the pressure has been put on the imperial power. The emperor in the palace has a gloomy expression. He has been angry about it many times in the court, and it is necessary to investigate thoroughly!
  Su Jiao was nesting in Qinghe Beiyuan, and He Xin was talking to her about these things to relieve her boredom.

But as a lover of palace battles, she has watched every episode of TV series such as The Legend of Zhen Huan and the Empress of the Harem. She has even played this type of role. After pondering the hearts of the ancients, she naturally understands that the truth is not as it seems on the surface. So simple.

But right now, this matter doesn't have much to do with him, so he won't get into trouble.

When Fu Yubai came over, Su Jiao was eating delicious food and watching the children being taken care of by Mr. Shu.

I feel happy.

[Hey, it’s really fun to watch others being punished! 】

[Yes, Sir, first deal with this brat Fu Ziyu, who is as stubborn as a donkey and was destroyed at the beginning of the script. He must be disciplined! 】

[This little kid Fu Zishu is not a light-hearted guy. He looks like he is studying seriously, so he has a lot on his mind. 】

[This little one... forget about crying while hugging the cloth tiger, let's just listen to the music. 】

Fu Yubai heard these complaints without any warning as soon as he walked into the front study. He felt speechless at that moment.

How much does this woman like to watch the fun?
  The three children together were not as old as her. How could she bear to watch such a lively life become so prosperous?
  "Third Master."

Fu Yubai was the first to be noticed by Aunt Gui Xin, and she hurriedly saluted.

Su Jiao paused while eating the cake, swallowed it in a hurry, then stood up and saluted Fu Yubai respectfully.

"Third Master."

The gentle one doesn't seem to be the one who complains and watches the fun.

[How come this man is so elusive! Scared me! 】

After hearing this complaint, Fu Yubai took a deep look at Su Jiao, then nodded and sat down.

Su Jiao's eyes were filled with questions.

"Won't the third master go and see the three young masters?"

Doesn't he care about the studies of these three children?
  Fu Yubai knew what the woman was thinking, and when he heard this, he just said lightly: "Mr. Shu has a sense of propriety."

In short, the meaning is horrifying, which means Mr. Shu will not kill them even if he wants to punish them.

So there was no need for him to go there.
