It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 494

Qian Zhaoling got up and poured a glass of wine for Deng Qiquan, held the glass himself, and said, "Today's winter solstice, I thought Mrs. Deng should have Laba porridge at home, but I didn't expect to find time to socialize."

Holding the wine glass, Deng Qiquan paused in vain, glanced at Qian Zhaoling, and said with a somewhat ambiguous smile, "I'm afraid that the whole of Kyoto knows that my mother has passed away long ago and that I live in the hands of my stepmother. Only you don't know?"

Qian Zhaoling did not move at all, clinked glasses with Deng Qiquan calmly, and said, "If I say something wrong, I am willing to drink as a penalty." After speaking, he drank the whole glass of wine by himself.

Deng Qiquan saw that Qian Zhaoling, a scholar, was so refreshed and proud, he drank the wine as soon as he lowered his head.

The two of them sat down and picked up their own dishes. Qian Zhaoling said tentatively, "When I was studying in Dingyuan, I met a middle-aged man with a strong surname and name. We share similar interests. In order to forget the year, he told me a story about how a young woman surnamed Wen married into a famous family that she had been engaged to once after she fell into poverty, and how she was squeezed out later and died in depression."

Deng Qiquan slapped the table hard, stood up with a cold face, and said, "I only see you as a character, so I have dinner with you at the table. Don't be so ungrateful." Deng Qiquan was born in Anyang Houfu, His mother was named Wen Chuxia, who died of illness when he was two years old. At the beginning, Anyang Hou's son was engaged to Wen Chuxia, the daughter of the current inspector Yushi Wenliqi. He was interrogated and executed for being involved in the incident of the Jinsui Literary Prison. Of the more than [-] members of the Wen family, only Wen Chuxia survived, which shows how miserable he is.

Although it was said that Wen Chuxia died of illness, many people said that it was because Marquis Anyang was afraid of being implicated, so he secretly drugged his daughter-in-law to death.

Less than two months after Wen Chuxia died of illness, the Marquis of Anyang married a young lady from the Dongling Xu family for his son, and the Xu family was the mother's family of the current queen mother.

Qian Zhaoling didn't move at all, and said with a helpless tone, "I thought someone wanted to avenge his mother, but now it seems that it's just a comfortable life, and I have forgotten these things."

Deng Qiquan's eyes were red, and he was about to get angry. After thinking about it, he sneered again, "You want to provoke me? What's the purpose?"

"Don't you want to know the real cause of your mother's death?" Qian Zhaoling raised his head and looked directly at Deng Qiquan.

Deng Qiquan knew that this was a pit and was waiting for him to jump into it, but for some reason, he wanted to jump into it willingly now. After his mother died of illness, his father told him that it was calm and calm, but waiting for him to slowly jump into it. Growing up slowly, rumors spread everywhere, he wanted to ask the ins and outs of the matter, but all the people who had served his mother were sold out, and none of them could be found. Well, if he hadn't accidentally made friends with the emperor who was still in Qianlong at the beginning, he would have been crippled by his good mother a long time ago.

Of course, after he got the ability later, he also thought about whether to find out what happened back then, but firstly, he was busy, and secondly... Seeing his father's aging face, he was a little bit reluctant to do so, but today he heard Qian With Zhao Ling's words, the hidden wound in his heart was suddenly uncovered, and the persistence to find out in his heart suddenly rose again.

Deng Qiquan closed his eyes and waited to open them again. He was already too sharp, and said fiercely, "If you dare to fool me, even if you are the elder brother of Concubine Zhen, I will not make it easy for you."
