Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 291: Hearing Good News from the North, But Unhappy (1)
Du Heng nodded lightly. It was related to government officials, and it was no longer something that an ordinary woman could interfere with.

Xiao Ze saw that Du Heng looked a bit sleepy, so he held her hand and said, "Ah Heng, you don't need to worry about these things, but you should be more careful with your sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, neither of them is a big-hearted person. Lost face today, they will find it back on you in the future."

Du Heng nodded and said: "I know, on weekdays, apart from going to my mother's place, I'm in Jiaotai Garden, and I don't interact with them, I only guard these two places, if they want to attack me, they won't have a chance. You don't have to worry about me here, if they really dare to do something to me, they must be the ones who are unlucky."

Xiao Ze looked at Du Heng's bright eyes, nodded heavily, and said, "Yes, no matter who wants to bully us, they will be the ones who will be unlucky in the end. Ah Heng, there is one more thing I need to discuss with you."

Du Heng nodded and said softly, "You can tell."

"You know that I have many subordinates, and they all know about my marriage. No, yesterday they asked me together to formally meet you. The date is up to you. You can decide on the day that is convenient for you. You Are you willing to meet them?" Xiao Ze looked at Du Heng a little nervously and asked.

Du Heng frowned when he heard the words, and murmured: "To see your subordinates?"

Seeing that Du Heng didn't immediately agree, Xiao Ze pursed his lips nervously and fixedly looked at Du Heng, holding Du Heng's soft hand and involuntarily exerted force.

"Ah..." Du Heng felt the pain in his hands, and couldn't help but let out a low cry. Only then did Xiao Ze realize that he had lost his composure, so he quickly let go of his hands and gently rubbed the back of Du Heng's hands, and said guiltily, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Du Heng gently withdrew her hand, raised her eyes to look at Xiao Ze, saw that his face was full of anxiety and apology, Du Heng felt warm in her heart, she nodded lightly and said: "Okay, I will go see your subordinates, I will I remember that there is nothing to do on the sixth day of the first lunar month, so how about setting it on that day?"

"You agreed? Really?" Xiao Ze exclaimed in surprise.

Du Heng said softly: "Well, I agreed. Didn't we already agree on the day we got married? Outside, I will cooperate with you to be the wife of Mr. Xiao San who is qualified. This is exactly what Mrs. Xiao Xiao should do. I Naturally, I should agree."

Xiao Ze's heart sank slightly, but he has the kind of temperament that becomes more and more courageous as he gets frustrated, and soon he is full of fighting spirit. "Well, okay, I'll call them back later, you don't have to worry, Ah Heng, they are easy to get along with and interesting people, you will know when you see them."

Du Heng nodded lightly, she was quite confident about Xiao Ze's vision of beckoning his subordinates to choose friends.Just look at Wu Jingming and Xiao Yi to get a glimpse.Although Xiao Yi doesn't show his face now, and Du Heng has only met him twice, but Du Heng has a very strange feeling. She always feels that Xiao Yi must not be a thing in the pool, and that the prince and the queen are four. Compared with Xiao Yi, the prince is really far behind.

"Aze, do you and elder brother want to support Xiao Yi?" Du Heng asked straightforwardly as there was no outsider in the room.

Xiao Ze was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "If Uncle Huang intends to pass on the throne to the crown prince or the fourth prince, Ah Yi will have to fight for this world."

Du Heng looked at Xiao Ze with a puzzled frown, and Xiao Ze said in a low voice: "The crown prince and A Yi have a hatred for killing their mother, and the fourth prince killed A Yi's own brother six years ago. Forget it. If you don’t avenge this revenge, Ah Yi swears not to be a human being.”

Du Heng took a deep breath and asked in a lower voice: "There is such a thing? Doesn't the emperor know about it?"

Xiao Ze smiled mockingly, and said in a low voice: "The Emperor will always only know what he wants to know, and what he doesn't want to know will never reach his ears."

Amidst Xiao Nuo's anxiety and uncertainty, the New Year has arrived.The air is filled with a strong smell of firecrackers, and the faces of adults and children are filled with cheerful and rich smiles.

Just before New Year's Eve, a piece of icing on the cake good news came back from northern Xinjiang.It turned out that after being besieged for half a year, General Jianwei Du Dahai and the army who went to the rescue attacked from inside and outside, and defeated the northern barbarian army in Yehu Valley. Du Dahai also captured King Naida Khan of the Northern Man.The news of the good news spread to the capital all the way in the express way of [-] miles away. Wherever the postmen of the good news passed, the people of Daliang cheered and cheered, and they became more and more willing to have a prosperous New Year.

In Prince Ning's mansion, Cheng Shi and Sun Shi heard the news from Xiao You, and they were both unhappy and worried.They didn't think about anything else, they only thought that the influence of Du Heng's natal family would definitely increase greatly, then her status in Prince Ning's mansion would become more honorable, and Du Heng would no longer take them seriously.

Xiao Nuo and Xiao Xi thought about the same as their wives, but their focus shifted from Du Heng to Xiao Ze.Even though Du Dahai was enraged by the encirclement of the emperor, but now he has fought a very beautiful turnaround, especially he has captured King Naida Khan of the northern barbarians alive. Du Dahai will never be punished when he returns to Beijing. , will definitely be rewarded, and maybe he will be knighted for his military exploits.In this way, Xiao Ze's Yue family is more powerful than Xiao Nuo's Yue family.After all, Old General Cheng has retired for many years. Although he has more power in the army, he is not as influential as the current general.

In the battle of Yehu Valley, Du Dahai turned defeat into victory, which can be said to have created an almost impossible myth. Xiao You can assert that in the past 30 to [-] years, no one in the army can surpass Du Dahai's prestige.

"Brother, what should we do now? The third brother's limelight is too strong!" Xiao Xi asked worriedly.

Xiao Nuo frowned and said, "My mind is very confused now, and I can't think of anything for a while, so I can only take one step at a time. Anyway, there are ancestors' etiquette, and they can't do anything for a while."

Xiao Nuo remained silent. He also knew that under the current situation, it would not be easy to bring down Xiao Ze, so he could only slowly look for opportunities to eradicate Xiao Ze completely.

On the 28th, the shopkeeper of Caishangfang came to the mansion to deliver a batch of new clothes to Du Heng that had been customized half a month ago. Yangmei Hongling served Du Heng and tried them on one by one. They all fit well and did not need to be changed. Du Heng was satisfied. He nodded and ordered Yangmei to pay the money.Just waiting for Yang Mei to get the silver, the shopkeeper of Caishangfang smiled flatteringly at Du Heng: "The little lady has not congratulated the third young lady yet, congratulations to the third young lady, congratulations to the third young lady!"

Du Heng was inexplicably congratulated, and he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Master Hu, what can I congratulate my wife for?"
