Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 261: A Misunderstanding and Punishment (1)
Hu Nanny responded and stepped aside, it was a matter of human life, and anyone should think carefully about it.

Du Heng, who didn't know that he had become the target of other people's calculations, stayed with Prince Ning until she fell asleep, and then left Baopu Garden with Xiao Ze and Xiao Ling. Bao Puyuan then asked in a whisper: "Third brother, what happened to the eldest brother and the second brother today?"

Xiao Ze said indifferently: "Ling'er, you have seen everything that happened today, the eldest brother and the second elder brother thought that my mother used things from the business to supplement me, so they came to ask my mother Xingshi for my crime."

"But my mother has been the housekeeper for many years and has never done such a thing. Don't you know why they don't believe in mother? Mother is also their mother!" Although Xiao Ling knew that the elder brother and second brother were not him Born to her mother, but because Xiao Yu and Xiao Xi have always been spoiled by her, Xiao Ling doesn't have any sense of intimacy as a sibling. She always feels that Xiao Yu and Xiao Xi are real siblings.

Looking at his younger sister's timid and flustered eyes, Xiao Ze suddenly didn't know what to say to her. Xiao Ze knew that his sister was well protected, so it can be said that he didn't know the dangers of the world. Xiao Ze didn't know whether he should break it now. This layer of dream bubbles still allows my sister to live a carefree life for two or three years.

Seeing that the third brother didn't answer him, Xiao Ling looked at Du Heng and called out, "Sister-in-law three?"

Du Heng didn't have Xiao Ze's scruples, she thought for a while and said: "Ling'er, let's have dinner at Jiaotai Garden at noon, I will talk to you slowly."

Xiao Ling nodded immediately and said: "Okay, I will definitely go there at noon."

Back in Jiaotai Garden, Xiao Ze asked: "Aheng, are you really going to tell Linger the truth?"

Du Heng looked at him and asked, "Do you want your sister to be ignorant of world affairs, so that she won't feel that she will be eaten alive in the future?"

Xiao Ze immediately shook his head.He didn't want it, Xiao Ling was his own sister after all, Xiao Ze always hoped that his sister would be safe and happy for the rest of her life.

Before it was time for lunch, Xiao Ling came to Jiaotai Garden early, Xiao Ze had already avoided temporarily as agreed in advance, Du Heng also retreated, and only talked with Xiao Ling in the room.

Seeing this formation, Xiao Ling couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Du Heng said slowly when he saw it: "Sister Ling'er, don't be nervous. I think you must have heard about me from others, and it may not be all. Time, I will tell you about my affairs in detail, okay?"

Xiao Ling hurriedly nodded and said: "Okay, I just wanted to hear what Third Sister-in-law said."

Du Heng nodded, and slowly talked about his experience...

"This is my experience from the age of five to now, Ling'er, I have neither exaggerated nor distorted, can you understand now?" Du Heng spoke for a long time before finishing, during which Xiao Ling continued for her Four teas.

"Ah, how did this happen? My mother is also a stepmother, but she never treated my elder brother and second brother like that bad woman. When I was young, I always thought that my elder brother and second brother were born by my mother. My mother treats them so well, they Why don't you treat your mother as your own mother?" Xiao Ling shouted angrily.

Du Heng said lightly: "Ling'er, my stepmother thinks that I'm in the way of her children's affairs, occupying the honorable position of the eldest daughter. For the eldest brother, your third brother is his biggest threat, and my mother is very worthy of my father. The favor of the king made the eldest brother extremely worried that the father would let your third brother be the eldest son because he doted on his mother. Even if the father asked him to be the eldest son, it still could not eliminate the fear in the eldest brother's heart. If there is any trouble, the eldest brother will Immediately, I thought that my father wanted to abolish him and replace him with your third brother, which is the real reason why the eldest brother and the second brother made such a fuss over mere Kaizi this morning."

Xiao Ling frowned and shook his head and said: "Brother, why is this so, father and king never said that third brother should be the eldest son, he has been the eldest son for more than ten years, can't he feel at ease?"

Du Heng shook his head and said: "Unless the father separates your third brother and me from the palace to let us live alone, or else immediately asks for an order to pass the throne to the eldest brother, otherwise he will not feel at ease, and it will be useless to rely on anyone to say anything." Linger, you must have heard the story of a suspicious neighbor stealing an axe, the reason is the same, before the eldest brother gets what he wants, he sees that your third brother is the one who wants to steal his seat, nothing else."

However, after Du Heng and Xiao Ling talked in detail, Xiao Ling was silent for a long time, and then hesitantly asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, third brother, do you want to be the prince?"

Du Heng was taken aback by the question, how could she know whether Xiao Ze wanted to be the prince or not, the two of them are actually not that close, okay?

"Well, to be honest, I don't know. You'd better ask your third brother this question directly." Du Heng kicked the ball to Xiao Ze easily.

Xiao Ling thinks about it too, the third sister-in-law has only been married into the palace for about ten days, even if the third brother is on good terms with her, it is impossible to tell her everything so quickly. "Well, I'll go back and ask third brother."

Du Heng nodded, and said softly, "Can you have lunch in peace now?"

The aunt and sister-in-law had lunch, Xiao Ling didn't go back to her garden, she just spent time in Jiaotai Garden, waiting for her third brother Xiao Ze to come back, the question Xiao Ling asked Du Heng just now was very important to her.

After Xiao Ze came back, seeing that his sister hadn't returned, he couldn't help but look at Du Heng, hoping that Du Heng would give him a hint. He originally thought that his sister had gone back long ago.

"Third brother, you are back. I have something important to ask you." Xiao Ling said hurriedly.Du Heng took the maid and left the upper room without waiting for Xiao Ling to finish speaking.

Seeing his younger sister's solemn expression, Xiao Ze frowned slightly and asked, "Ling'er, what do you want to ask?"

Xiao Ling said urgently: "Third brother, please tell me the truth, do you want to replace eldest brother as the eldest son?"

Xiao Ze said without even thinking about it: "I don't want to, I never thought of replacing anyone, I'm just myself. Eldest brother was conferred the crown prince 16 years ago, and his name was determined early. I don't have that kind of thought, nor do I What kind of position is rare."

Xiao Ling's eyes widened in shock, she fixedly looked at the third brother Xiao Ze, feeling that he was so strange.In Xiao Ling's memory, the third brother has always been sick and weak. How could he have such a tall head? His words are so powerful!
"Ling'er, the third brother didn't plan to fight for anything with the elder brother, but it doesn't mean that the third brother will allow others to step on us and bully us at will. You saw it this morning, don't you feel sorry for your mother? Mother worked hard He has been running the palace for 16 years, and he has done his best to his elder brother and second brother, but now, they can rush in front of their mother to question and scold them unreasonably without evidence. As a son of man, how can you let the third brother feel so bad, and how can you feel so bad, That is the mother who gave birth to us! There is a saying that the Lord humiliated his ministers to death, and our mother was humiliated. If we, as our own children, remain indifferent, are we still human?" The more Xiao Ze spoke, the more angry he became, and his handsome face also swelled flushed.
