marry a noble wife

Chapter 490 The Grand Finale (3)
Three days later, when there were still discussions in the capital about what happened in Yihong Courtyard, the old lady who was recuperating in Rongfu Hall asked Mr. Hao about the whereabouts of Mr. Anping, and Mr. Hao said cautiously: "Go back to Mrs. , the servants have been sending people to stare at the Hou Ye from afar. The Hou Ye seems to have no direction. First, he inquired in the capital along the river where Princess Lan fell into the water, and then expanded beyond East Fourth Street. Now he has arrived in the capital. Beyond that, there should be signs of a wider scope."

The old lady was bored, she closed her eyes and calmed down, and then said: "Has the emperor asked him for anything recently?"

Manager Hao shook his head, "No one has ever been in the palace, and the servant heard that the Marquis even handed over the military power in his hand, and he has become an idler with no title to the Marquis of Anping, why would the Emperor look for him again?" ?”

The old lady opened her eyes and said angrily: "It seems that Hou Ye is ready to be a person who is at home with peace of mind. Without his military achievements and those fame and fortune, he will be nothing in the future. Who will wait for us again?" Does the government care about it?"

Mr. Hao opened his mouth restrainedly, hesitant to speak, the old lady saw it, and asked, "Just say what you have to say, hesitating, it makes people feel uncomfortable."

Director Hao gritted his teeth, and said frankly: "Old madam, according to the servant, let the Hou go. He has suffered a lot these years. After Princess Lan left, the servant almost never saw him smile once. All the big and small things, the ups and downs of these years have been carried by him alone. Since he was a child, Master Hou has never lived a day of comfort. It is not easy to have a caring person, but it is just gone. , as a man, it's really hard to express the pain in Lord Hou's heart. It's fine for others, but the old lady is the one who gave birth to him and raised him, why not let him go, give him a little freedom, and let him do what he wants about?"

The old lady was slightly angry, "I let him go? Then who will let me go? He is the head of the family, so he should be responsible for the family's livelihood. This is what he personally promised when his elder brother was gone. How can I go back on my words? Haven’t laughed? Who can I blame? I can only blame that woman for stealing his soul. It’s good that I haven’t troubled that woman yet. I refuse to let my son go?"

Mr. Hao saw that she was angry, and he didn't know what was wrong, but he said the words that had been in his heart for many years without fear of death, "Old lady, please calm down, please think back, Lord Hou has devoted himself to the court all these years. How much blood and sweat, how much credit has been made, and what is the result? It is still the suspicion of the emperor, because he was married to Princess Lan back then, the emperor has been threatening the old lady to kill the princess, so that King Xi can cut off his roots. And While using Lord Hou, while killing the third young master, and asking Lord Hou to hand over military power openly and secretly after the end of the year, Lord Hou is just a pawn in the eyes of the emperor, not even a watchdog. Old lady, can't you see Master Hou is already disheartened, and even wants to go back to the mountains? What's the use of you still holding on to this glorious lintel that doesn't exist at all and ordering him to support it? Now he still has to look for Princess Lan I am afraid that one day, he will get the real bad news, and he will have no reason to live. Don't the old lady really wait until the tragedy happens to regret it, it will be too late."

The old lady's eyes changed and she remained silent.

Manager Hao said again: "Old Madam, don't count on the Emperor, you saw the last time you heard the words of the imperial concubine and sent the second girl to the palace, thinking that it would be of any help to the mansion, but it turned out that there was no muddy cow into the sea, and there were no blisters Let’s start with one. Don’t talk about the resurrection of the aunt. Now that the aunt has been reduced to the end of being kicked out of the prince’s mansion, the emperor simply ignores it. Haven’t you realized until now that the emperor is actually looking forward to Are we waiting for the government to quickly break down our defeated thoughts?"

The old lady turned pale, and said in a low voice: "Why? Our Fu family is loyal to the emperor, why does the emperor want our Fu family to fall?"

"Old madam, the sacred heart is unpredictable, who knows what the emperor is thinking? Maybe when you went to the golden palace to call out all the ministers, the emperor who lost his face made the ancestral motto not to reuse the Fu family? Today's emperor can reuse the Hou Ye, who can't say that he is using the Hou Ye's talent?"

The old lady shook her head and denied, "Impossible, impossible, it's all because of Princess Lan. If she hadn't seduced Lord Hou, the emperor would have moved to suppress the Fu family. But no matter what, the emperor now values ​​our Changting very much. Yes, the last time it was clearly said that Chang Ting committed such a serious crime, the emperor let him go overnight and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. The emperor is just suspicious of Lord Marquis, and still has high hopes for the younger generation of our family. The family can still contribute to the court."

Mr. Hao just felt powerless, with an indescribable sadness. After so many years in this marquis mansion, what is he not clear about?Although he has done a lot of unconscionable things, he really doesn't want the huge Fu family to fall down, and eventually the population will wither to nothing.

He originally wanted the old lady not to rely on Fu Changting, because he knew that Fu Changting was a sharp blade used by the emperor to provoke the war in the Houfu. If he really wanted the Fu family to pass on, he should rely on the third young master to be safer.Today's third young master and third young grandma are a pair of transparent people who are truly admirable and can see the world clearly.

In the end, he didn't say it out. After all, the person who did the worst and most sorry thing in the old lady's life was San Shao. Even if she begged San Shao now, San Shao would never forgive her.

He sighed, not wanting to dwell on this topic anymore, and then he had to say another piece of very bad news that he was about to tell, "Old lady, Mama Sun came back just now and said that my aunt and grandma died last night. gave birth."

The old lady cheered up, "Oh? Already gave birth? Is it a son or a daughter?"

Manager Hao swallowed with some difficulty and said: "I don't know if it's a son or a daughter. I heard Mama Sun come back crying and said that she clearly saw that the midwife brought out a crying child, but in the end, wait She went to coat the child, and the child was no longer a child, it turned out to be...it turned out to be a little monkey with hair all over its body..."

"What? A monkey? Jing Wen didn't marry a monkey, how could she give birth to a monkey? It must be the midwives who did something wrong, that's okay, why didn't they inform the people in the Prince's Mansion and tell them to punish those midwives and put the serious Get your prince and grandson back?" The old lady was so angry that she patted the table and was furious. Although Fu Jingwen is no longer a grandson concubine, she is the eldest daughter of her Fu family after all. It's the same as watching the jokes of the Fu family.
