Chapter 693 Wen Xiao's Wrath

After returning to Shen's house, the two entered the house, Sui Youran came to find her, and asked anxiously: "Lan'er, is your grandmother really dead?"

Shen Weilan said solemnly: "Mother, you should call her Mrs. Wen! Our surname is Shen now, and she is no longer my grandmother!"

"Oh..." Sui Youran sighed softly. "Although that's the case, it's still the blood over there."

Shen Weilan couldn't help laughing, "Mother, don't forget, Wen Mo is a concubine!"

It was only then that Su Youran realized that her daughter was not related to Mrs. Wen by blood, so she couldn't help laughing and said: "Mother is confused!"

Shen Weilan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Mother, Brother Chen and I have already gone to express our condolences, so don't worry about it."

……

Because the third master of the Wen family was at the border and had to wait for him to come back for the funeral, Mrs. Wen's coffin stopped indefinitely in the mansion. When the third master Wen came back, the funeral would be held.

According to legend, after a person dies, every seven days, the soul will come back, or go home, or go to the most familiar place in life, people call this seven nights back to the soul.

Until Qiqi 49 days, ghosts will officially enter the underworld.

The first seven days are generally called the first seven, the second is called the second seven, and so on.

Let's just say that on the first seven nights, two figures flew into the prime minister's mansion like flying. These two people went to the backyard and walked into the second lady's room.

These days, everyone in Wen's family was exhausted. In the second wife's room, there was loud snoring. No matter it was Wen Mo and the second wife, the little maid who kept watch at night was also sleeping in the dark.

One of the black shadows took out a white porcelain bottle from his pocket, uncorked the bottle, and shook the bottle under the noses of everyone in the room.

And another black shadow carried the second wife on the shoulders from the bed, and the two left the room, went straight to the front yard, opened the lid of the coffin seamlessly, put the second wife into the coffin, and put the coffin lid back on superior.

After doing all this, the two left the Prime Minister's mansion one after the other, but no one noticed.

The next day, Wen Mo woke up, but found that his wife was gone. At first, he thought that the eldest lady just got up earlier than him, but later he found that the second lady's clothes and shoes were all there, and there was no one in the house. When I saw her, I panicked.

Everyone searched hard, and in the end it was Mama Lin who was next to the old lady who remembered that the old lady disappeared so strangely that year, but finally appeared in the old lady's coffin.

Then everyone went to the front hall, lifted the lid of the coffin, and found that the second lady was indeed here, and she was suffering from a high fever.

Everyone hurriedly sent the second lady back to the house.

Wen Xiao quit immediately, changed her clothes and went to Shen's residence. The gatekeeper of Shen's residence had already heard the news, if he came, don't stop him.

So Wen Xiao went straight to the backyard and came to Shen Weilan's room.

Shen Weilan is doing needlework, a pair of socks for Xuan Chen, Xuan Chen has a strange temper, he likes to wear clothes made by her, and she likes to make them for him.

She was doing needlework, and Xuan Chen looked at her with his chin resting on his shoulders. The two chatted from time to time, just like the way ordinary couples get along with each other.

When Wen Xiao broke in, what he saw was such a peaceful and harmonious scene. He couldn't help being annoyed, and asked loudly, "Did you two lock my second aunt in my grandmother's coffin last night?"

Xuan Chen and Shen Weilan looked at each other, before speaking, Xuan Chen took the lead and said: "Wen Xiao, are you crazy? There is a funeral in your family, you should be at home, Ding You is, how can you break into other people's house casually?"

"I don't care, I'll just ask you, did you put my second aunt in the coffin?" Wen Xiao asked like crazy.

He began to fear, he was really afraid, these two people are really powerful and ruthless, if this continues, people from the Wen family may die!

"Are you sick? It's late at night, and it's freezing outside. The two of us stayed awake and went to your house to put your aunt in a coffin. Why do we treat you like this?" Xuan Chen said nothing. Said angrily.

Shen Weilan also said: "Third cousin, you really misunderstood us. Last night, the two of us stayed at home with the guests and didn't go to sleep until five o'clock. We have proof that we never went out!"

"I don't believe it! Even if you have a certificate, you bought it!" At this time, Wen Xiao was basically mad with anger. Since these two people appeared in the capital, everything in the Wen family was not going well, and Concubine Wen Gui was beaten. After entering the cold palace, the second prince was not welcomed by the emperor, and the Wen family had accidents one after another.

This time it was the second aunt, so, will it be his mother next time?even him?
He came today not because of Second Aunt, but because he was too scared!

He needs an answer!
Wen Xiao never expected that as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a gentle voice coming in from outside, "You mean, I can also be bribed by the two of them?"

Immediately afterwards, the emperor walked in from the outside wearing a casual uniform, followed by Shen Luo, Xuan Yu, Leng Shaofeng, and several other guards.

Wen Xiao never dreamed that the witness mentioned by these two people would be the emperor, so scared that he quickly knelt down to the emperor, "I don't know if the emperor is here, please forgive me!"

Shen Weilan and Xuan Chen also came to greet the emperor, and asked the emperor to sit on the wooden couch.

Shen Weilan ordered: "Jiaoniang, serve tea!"

The emperor didn't speak, he sat there and took a look at the needle and thread that Shen Weilan had just dropped, and asked Shen Weilan, "Is this for Brother Chen?"

Shen Weilan blushed and nodded, "Yes!"

The emperor smiled and said to Xuan Yu: "Blessed is your brat, this girl is a virtuous one!"

As he said that, he suddenly darkened his face, stared at Wen Xiao and said, "Wen Xiao, I always thought you were a sensible person, but I only found out today, and I was mistaken. What did you just say, Mrs. Wen Er was given to you last night? Locked in your grandmother's coffin? I tell you, I came here yesterday and drank all night here. Brother Chen and this girl stayed with me all the time, and I didn't go to sleep until the third watch. Li, last night, there were more than 300 guards from the Imperial Forest Army, and I assure you that Brother Chen never left the Shen family. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them one by one.”

Wen Xiao argued: "Even if the two of them didn't do it themselves, they sent people to do it!"

The emperor's face suddenly became ugly, "Wen Xiao, I have heard that your mother had this hysteria before, and she crawled into the coffin to sleep in the middle of the night. Back then, she asked the imperial physician to see it. I told you, this is hysteria! Could your aunt be suffering from hysteria this time as well?"

"No! Your Majesty, this is definitely not hysteria, it's the two of them who did it. I beg the Emperor to let the Wen family decide!" Wen Xiao didn't expect that the emperor would become so biased. No matter what he said, he would stand by Shen Weilan and Xuan Chen. Over there, he couldn't help feeling helpless, so he kowtowed to the emperor.

The emperor's face froze, and he said quietly: "Wen Xiao, I heard that your grandmother died under a poison called 'Carmine', but this 'Carmine' was found in your house. , is that right? Can you tell me why you have this poison in your hand? What are you planning to do with this medicine in your possession? "

Wen Xiao's kowtow slowed down immediately, and he couldn't kowtow any more. He thought that the family members were tight-lipped and would not spread the matter. Then, there was only one conclusion, that Shen Weilan and Xuan Chen spread the news. of.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help turning his face to look at the two of them.

But I heard the emperor say: "You don't need to look at them, they didn't tell me the matter, I have another source of information, I just want to tell you that although I knew about this matter, I didn't let anyone deal with you because of insufficient evidence When I heard the news, I must have disposed of that 'Carmine' by you."

"Your Majesty..." Wen Xiao broke out in a cold sweat nervously. Only then did he realize that he was so reckless. The opponent had counted every move he made, knowing that he would definitely come to them today, so The emperor was specially invited over.

The emperor waved his hand, "I came out of the palace to play, not to handle the case, you go, don't be so reckless next time, if you encounter anything, you have to investigate it thoroughly before talking about it, otherwise, I will never talk about it again." I dare not entrust you with any errands."

"Yes!" Although Wen Xiao was full of reluctance, there was nothing he could do. Who would ask someone to have the emperor's backing?I had no choice but to stand up in despair, bid farewell and leave.

When he left, the emperor's face darkened again, he stared at Shen Weilan and Xuan Chen and said, "You two are really lawless! How dare you do such a shameful thing!"

Xuan Chen and Shen Weilan didn't dare to tell the difference, they both stood there with their heads bowed and didn't make a sound when they swept away the righteousness when Wen Xiao was there just now.

"That's right, you two are too brave! The old lady of the Wen family was poisoned to death. I heard that her body is rotten. You are not afraid to open her coffin and get poisoned." Xuan Yu helped . "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely teach the two of them a lesson, and I will never let them cause trouble again."

The emperor amused him, pointed at him and said, "You, you! These two children are spoiled by you, that's why they are so lawless."

Xuan Chen said in a low voice: "Now that the old lady of the Wen family is dead, the three brothers Wen Mo, Wen An, and Wen Yong all suffer from Ding You, and Wen Xiao can't come out to play. This is a good opportunity for the emperor to show his grand plans. The emperor will not reward us Forget it, you still scold us, and you won't help the emperor in the future."

"You brat, what are you talking about?" The emperor glared at Xuan Chen angrily. "Stop talking nonsense, I'll let your father beat you up!"

Xuan Chen muttered something in a low voice, shut his mouth and dared not speak again.

The emperor stood up and said to Shen Luo: "It's almost time, I should go back to the palace, otherwise, the empress should be worried."

Shen Luo bowed respectfully, "I respectfully send the emperor off!"
