Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 300 Investigation (1)
Wu Jingzhen's face flushed, she quickly responded, and she and Du Heng hid behind the screen.

After a while, Xiao Ze walked in with Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi stepped forward to salute the old man, the old man stood up with his stick, and only accepted Xiao Yi's half salute, and said with a smile: "Seventh son, please sit down, I don't know The Seventh Young Master is not far away to welcome you, so don’t blame him for looking at the Seventh Young Master.”

Xiao Yi smiled and said: "The old man is serious. The boy and Ling Sunyi married Jinlan. They are brothers who have died. The boy should have come to say hello to your old man a long time ago. It's just a inconvenience. It's your apology."

Behind the screen, Wu Jingzhen frowned and asked Du Heng in a low voice, "Ah Heng, who is this man? Why didn't I know that my brother still has such a sworn brother?"

Du Heng said in a low voice: "Look at it first, and I will tell my sister in detail later." Wu Jingzhen nodded and stopped talking.

Xiao Yi is also a martial arts practitioner, and his hearing is much better than ordinary people, so he can naturally hear two women whispering behind the screen.One of the voices is quite familiar, it should be the voice of his cousin Du Heng, but the other one is not familiar.Xiao Yi thought about it, and thought to himself: "Could it be brother Jingming's younger sister? The voice is quite nice."

Since the marriage was mentioned yesterday, Xiao Yi couldn't help becoming interested in the girl's family. He really wanted to know who his wife would be, what kind of personality she would be, and whether she could match him.Xiao Yi is not as calm as he said at all, for his future wife, Xiao Yi is actually full of all kinds of good expectations in his heart.

Because Wu Jingming and his grandfather mentioned that he intends to betroth his younger sister to the seventh prince Xiao Yi, so when the old man looked at Xiao Yi, he couldn't help but look at his grandson-in-law.Although there is no word on this matter.

Although Xiao Yi doesn't have the tragic beauty of Xiao Ze, he is still a handsome and sunny boy, with the typical slender phoenix eyes and a high nose bridge that hangs like a gall, which are typical of the Xiao family.The most distinctive feature of Xiao Yi is that when he smiles, he will reveal two pointed little canine teeth, which looks very attractive.

Xiao Yi is no shorter than Xiao Ze, and his figure is also stronger than Xiao Ze.In fact, nine out of ten teenagers must be stronger than Xiao Ze. Xiao Ze has the kind of miraculous physique that makes women so jealous that he can't get fat no matter how much he eats, he can always keep thin and slim.

The old man twirled his long beard and nodded with a smile. The Seventh Prince looks good, and he can be regarded as worthy of his precious granddaughter.It's just that marriage is a good thing for two surnames, not just a match in appearance. When thinking of Xiao Yi's status as a prince, the smile on the old Duke's face faded, and he sighed softly, it's a good one Why did the child end up in the royal family?
Xiao Yi didn't know that the old man regarded himself as his grandson-in-law, so he would naturally feel his scalp go numb from the old man's sigh. He looked at Xiao Ze with big question marks in his eyes.

Xiao Ze knew everything, but he couldn't say anything, so he just gave Xiao Yi a comforting smile, but didn't say anything.

"Did the seventh son come out to build a mansion in the beginning of spring?" the old man asked.

Xiao Yi hurriedly replied: "You are right, the date of April [-] has been set."

"Well, it's a good day. On that day, the old man will send their brothers to congratulate you." There was something in the old man's words, and Xiao Yi also understood what the old man meant, and immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, man. Lord, the boy will definitely live up to the two elder brothers."

The old man smiled and said: "That's good. Our generation is old, and we will only look at you in the future. But there is one thing, the seventh son must keep it in mind."

Xiao Yi restrained his face and said solemnly: "Please give me your advice, old man."

The old Duke put away his smile, and said in a solemn voice: "No matter what kind of situation you encounter, the seventh son must remember that the most important thing is the people of the world, and everything else is second. For the sake of the people of the world, you can give up everything."

Xiao Yi was silent for a moment, then nodded heavily and said: "Yes, Xiao Yi remembered."

Behind the screen, Wu Jingzhen whispered in surprise: "Xiao Yi? Ah Heng, is he the Seventh Prince?" Wu Jingzhen often walked around the palace since she was a child, but she didn't go there much until she got older, so she tabooed the names of the princes. It was very clear, so as soon as Xiao Yi reported his name, Wu Jingzhen knew his identity.

Du Heng nodded lightly and said in a low voice: "Yes, it's him. He and his elder brother Xiao Ze are sworn brothers, and the three of them are very close."

Wu Jingzhen nodded and said: "Well, I can see that if it's not good, my brother-in-law can't let his brother-in-law bring him over to say hello to grandpa."

When Du Heng heard Wu Jingzhen call out the word "brother-in-law" naturally, he felt very awkward, and his face was slightly feverish. Although he and Xiao Ze got along well now, Du Heng was still not used to being too close to Xiao Ze.

Seeing the Seventh Prince Xiao Yi's speech is very good, his behavior is also very generous and free, and the young man is tall and energetic, he can't help but feel a little regretful. If Xiao Yi is not the Seventh Prince, he is really a very good candidate for his son-in-law. Sigh how such a good child was born in the royal family, what a pity!
Xiao Yi came to Zhen Guogong's mansion today, but he was actually a little bit cautious.Seeing sisters as brothers, Xiao Yi secretly guessed that Wu Jingzhen was a good girl, and also heard that she had a good relationship with his cousin Du Heng, so it would be great if he could marry her.In this way, the three of them are not just sworn brothers, but also relatives who have broken bones and connected tendons.It's just that Xiao Yi doesn't know if the old man is willing to marry his precious granddaughter to him.Although being a prince and concubine is beautiful, it is still very hard to be a prince and concubine who is out of power and has no mother-in-law to protect her.Xiao Yi was worried.

So after chatting with the old man for a while, Xiao Yi found an opportunity to leave the Tuisi Hall with Xiao Ze. He dragged Xiao Ze aside and asked in a low voice, "Ah Ze, Jingming's younger sister hasn't returned yet?" Are you engaged?"

Xiao Ze looked at Xiao Yi with a frown, and asked in a low voice, "I haven't heard about it, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Yi whispered: "I think if Jingming's younger sister hasn't promised someone yet, why not promise her to me."

Xiao Ze raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of her? Have you met her before?"

Xiao Yi hurriedly said: "I saw her once when I was a child. To be honest, I don't remember what she looks like now. But I think she is Jingming's younger sister, and she is good sisters with my sister-in-law. I think it must be Not bad, I am about the same age as her, so it is quite suitable."
