Shijiao looked at his old wife, his anger turned into ashes, and he weakly threw down the long stick in his hand. His figure became older and older, and he sighed: "You, you! What a loving mother, what a loser! You are always fooling around.

That’s all, now you are making fun of Guo Zuo and causing this huge disaster, how will it end?”

Mrs. Shi knew that this was going to be a serious disaster. She gritted her teeth and jumped up. She raised her hand and struck her daughter-in-law with a loud slap on the face. She cursed angrily: "You bitch! You know full well what Guan Ji is carrying in her belly."

Why is this traitorous son of a bitch running to the dowager to be a good boy? Don’t you understand that you are willing to give someone such a big deal? This is the death penalty for the whole family."

Young Mistress Shi covered her face and was immediately stunned. Ever since she married into the Shi Mansion, her parents-in-law had been kind to her and her servants had been respectful to her. Apart from her husband's love of looking for flowers, she had never suffered such a big mistake. She was immediately unconvinced.

replied:

"My mother taught me a lesson. But my daughter-in-law did this for the good of our family! My father-in-law has been a minister in Weiguo for many years and has offended many people, especially the princes and relatives of the prince's family. If the king has no sons, other princes will be killed in the future.

When the country is in power, how can the father-in-law be reused? If Guan Ji's son can be established as the heir apparent this time, then my Shi family will take the throne of Weiguo, which will be of great benefit to the father-in-law and the Shi family!

"

Hearing this, Shi Jiao couldn't help but sigh slightly. This daughter-in-law usually seemed okay, but she didn't expect her mind to be so crooked and stupid. She thought Shi Jiao had been shrewd all his life, how could there be such a gullible and arrogant fool in his family?

?

Seeing that my father-in-law was silent, Mrs. Shi thought she had hit the nail on the head. She climbed a few steps and said softly: "Although there are some rumors outside about this matter, as long as you kill my father-in-law, Guan Ji will not let go, and your Majesty is here."

I'm afraid they don't dare to talk nonsense when they are in a hurry! Let's get the job done, and from now on, the Shi family will really get wind and rain in Weiguo!"

Shi Jiao waved his sleeves impatiently: "That's all. Thousands of miles of river embankments were destroyed by ant nests. The most important thing to manage a family is the descendants and the family." His tone became more desolate: "You and your wife only see one person in your eyes."

The word "profit" is used, but she doesn't know the danger in it. That madam has always been eyeing the throne, how can she give up easily if she seizes this opportunity? Alas! Idiots can't say anything, so go down!"

The old wife was about to cross the threshold, but she turned around worriedly and asked softly: "Is this really bad?"

"No!" Today's Mrs. Li Tai's words suddenly echoed in Shi Jiao's ears: "Doctor Shi, this matter can no longer be covered up. You should make a choice whether to keep your Shi family rich and powerful, or to keep your position as king.

!”

"Master------" Mrs. Shi stopped talking.

"If you have anything to say, just say it! At this stage, what else can't be said?" Shi Jiao said weakly.

Mrs. Shi bit her lower lip and said: "That concubine is scared. Now that the hearts of the people of the country belong to the young master, I can't support myself alone. Now that this has happened again, I'm afraid it will be hard for the emperor to trust him."

Why don't you just go to the Grand Madam and reconcile with the Young Master to keep your family safe?"

After saying this, she looked at her husband with a guilty conscience. Unexpectedly, Shi Jiao was not angry. He just smiled bitterly and said, "It's too late! If you follow your words, the wife will definitely push the dirty work of regicide to my hands. By then, Shi Jiao will

The clan is the real ultimate sacrifice! Alas! This is a dead end!"

Midsummer has passed, and the weather is gradually getting colder. The sky is blue and the water is green, and magpies are flying south. The palace is full of yellow flowers and countless fallen reds, adding a touch of autumn. In the blink of an eye, Guan Ji's son is about to celebrate the full moon. The entire Wei Kingdom knew that Wei Boyu was about to formally crown the newborn son as his crown prince at the full moon banquet.

On the day of the banquet, Mrs. Litai woke up early. She went through today's procedures in her mind. After making sure that there was no flaw in any link, she felt at ease and let the maid dress for her. Although it was already She was a person walking through strong winds and waves, but after so long of planning, it was finally time to wrap things up, and she was unavoidably nervous and excited.

Although it was an important day to confer the title of Crown Prince, Wei Boyu felt sorry for Guan Ji and did not want to make the scene too big and burden her. The only courtiers invited were a few of the senior officials, and other than that were the Ji surnamed Wei. Relatives of the public clan and harem dependents.

Men and women were seated separately, with a curtain in the middle. When Mrs. Li came to the women's table, she saw that all the women and concubines were surrounding Guan Ji and her son on three levels inside and outside, flattering her. The baby, who had just turned one month old, was white, plump and round. He had a loud cry, and people found him lovable. After touching him a few times, the little man actually got angry and glared at people with his big eyes. He was so energetic that Mrs. Li couldn't help but hug her. Hug again.

Guan Ji's face was fair and tender, but her expression was quite haggard, as if she was still in a trance, and she looked very weak. Mrs. Li comforted her a few words insincerely, and then walked up the steps of the hall. On the stone steps, in the middle was Wei Boyu's seat was followed by two small cases, one on the left and one on the right. Behind the case on the right, Gong Shuhua was already sitting upright. The reason why he could sit there was precisely because Ji Hua was the Marquis of Xianli The only younger brother, he has close and noble blood, and has high prestige in the Wei clan.

Mrs. Li greeted Gong Shuhua and was about to sit down when she heard a long call from the eunuch: "My lord has arrived——"

Except for the dowager and the uncle, all the participants fell to the ground and echoed: "Bless you, Your Majesty!"

Wei Boyu hurriedly took a few steps and was the first to lift Guan Ji up and lead her to sit behind the table. The banquet began——

At the age of thirty-six, he was considered to have a son in middle age. Wei Boyu was really happy. He held his son who was just one month old in his arms. He heard the constant flattery of the courtiers and clan members and drank a lot without realizing it. Wine. He was so happy that he didn't even notice that Shi Jiao didn't come to the banquet.

"Everyone -" Wei Boyu put down the wine glass in his hand, cleared his throat and said: "Today is the full moon ceremony of my son. I, Wei's ancestral temple, have finally inherited the country, and I can be considered worthy of my ancestors. On this good day, I, I, An edict has been announced!"

The Chief of Ceremonies unfolded the silk book that he had prepared and was about to read out the edict. Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to the outside of the hall, and the air seemed to freeze. Mrs. Li's eyes swept forward, and the corners of her lips tightened slightly.

At the end of her sight, Mrs. Wei Zhongzi, with lowered eyebrows, was dressed in a thin black shirt, with loose hair and bare feet. The moment she entered the hall, she quickly brushed back the black veil that was half hanging on the side of her face. Her face was pale but His eyes were condensed. After secretly meeting Mrs. Li's eyes, he walked up the steps more firmly.

Wei Boyu was quite displeased, and scolded him in a low voice but full of disgust: "Today is the happy day of the Crown Prince's full moon, who are you showing to by dressing like this?"

Zhongzi seemed not to have heard anything at all. With his long skirt swaying lightly, he walked slowly to the brocade carpet in the hall and bowed down. The hall was completely silent. Everyone couldn't help but push their glasses and stop their chopsticks, widening their eyes. Looking at her, even Gong Shuhua, who had always been serious about his words, couldn't help but put down the copper in his hand, and asked with a little surprise: "Today is a great day for me, David, to establish an heir. My niece, even if you are dissatisfied, you have to look at your ancestors." On the surface, why is it like this?"

"It is for the sake of protecting our country and the country from falling into the hands of adulterers, and for the sake of the purity of my royal family's bloodline, that I dare to speak out." Zhongzi's eyes showed determination, he took a deep breath, and raised his chin: "I just want to speak out." I want to expose Guan Ji’s crime of treason in front of all the nobles and nobles, by pretending to be the descendant of the Shi family.”

"What are you talking about?" Wei Boyu angrily threw the wine cup in his hand on the stone steps, making a crisp "clang" sound. Guan Ji's face was ashen, and Mrs. Li took this opportunity to ask the nanny beside her to hold the baby. Come and coax.

Wei Boyu's rage made Zhongzi grit his teeth, the timidity in his chest disappeared, and his voice became clearer: "Guan Ji is not some Yao mother who carried the pregnancy longer than ordinary people. She was born at full term, and this child is really the king's pickaxe." What she conceived during those two months in Beijing was actually the child of her affair with the heir of the Shi family!"

With just such a sentence, the whole hall instantly exploded like boiling oil being poured with a spoonful of cold water. Wei Boyu's face also changed, he raised a trembling finger and pointed at Zhongzi and said angrily: "You-- ----You--------talk nonsense! Someone, drag this jealous woman down with me!"

"Wait a minute!" Mrs. Li's clear voice stopped her. She turned to Gong Shuhua and said: "Uncle, see what Zishi said is true, not to mention that Guan Ji's fetus did come from outside the palace. Since there are doubts, it's better to find out clearly. It’s good. After all, it’s about the inheritance of the Wei family’s bloodline, it’s no small matter!”

Gong Shuhua stroked his beard and said slowly: "Sister-in-law is right, your Majesty, please be patient!" He turned to Zhongzi: "Since you have come forward, you must have evidence, so why not present it in public to convince everyone? how?"

"I have a witness!" Zhongzi kowtowed and said, "Young lady Shi's maid He Hua can be a witness!"

Lotus had already been waiting outside the hall. At this time, Zhongzi's maid led him into the hall. Because it was the first time to see such a scene, he was so frightened that he did not dare to raise his head, and he was trembling when he spoke: "I-- ----My young master has always been a lustful person, and everyone in Chaoge City knows about it. The master knows the young master's virtue, so he specially placed Guan Ji in a side courtyard, and no other people are allowed to come in or out. But ------ according to the young master How dare you give up because of your temper? We slaves don’t dare to criticize our master. When the master is not at home, the young master sneaks into the side courtyard as soon as he has free time and doesn’t come out until two or three hours------"

Her voice was very soft, but it was like a thunderbolt from the blue, hitting Uncle Wei's face like wood. Guan Ji looked panicked, grabbed his sleeves desperately, and begged in a low voice: "No, Your Majesty, it's not like this. It must be the case. She------" She pointed at Zhongzi: "She was jealous of my favored concubine and bribed the maids of the Shi family to slander me. This child is the blood of the king, and the 'Yao mother's palace' was mentioned by the king himself. Have you forgotten everything?”
