Chapter 379: One hundred and seventy-eight. Seeing through

Mrs. Wang also stood up hurriedly: "Is Fifth Brother's wife feeling unwell?"

Mrs. Wang Wu had just become pregnant and was physically weak. She had been taking medication to preserve the pregnancy recently. Even the fact that Song Xiangyu had been assassinated in his hometown was kept secret from Mrs. Wang Wu, for fear that something might happen to her.

Master Wang Wu wiped his sweat and shook his head, "It's not because she's uncomfortable, but because she heard that her father-in-law and mother-in-law sent a letter back from her hometown, and she couldn't rest assured and wanted to go and see them in person, so she said she wanted to go back. I thought about it, instead of letting her worry at home, it would be better to let her go back."

This is quite reasonable, so Old Mrs. Wang told Mrs. Wang: "Then you go and make arrangements and let them go back."

Mrs. Wang agreed and went out with them. After she had told someone to prepare the car and take care of everything, she had time to sit down at the table with Mr. Wang and told him about the restoration of the Su family's title: "Now what they are most worried about is Su Rong's health. If I were to say, the only problem with Su Rong is his legs. If his legs can be cured..."

If his leg could be cured, he would be a great kid.

They are at least ten thousand times better than the gloomy and terrifying Xu brothers.

Master Wang drank a sip of tea and saw that his wife was talking about the Su family but seemed a little absent-minded. He raised his eyebrows and asked her, "Is there something wrong with you? Why are you so absent-minded?"

It was discovered.

Mrs. Wang sighed and told the story of Mrs. Xie San. She said what was in her heart with some worry: "The Xie family is of course a famous and prestigious family, and Mu Jun is also a promising child. But the more this is the case, the more I worry that they will be wronged when they marry into the family..."

If the other party really has a knot in his heart, then this marriage will not be so good.

Master Wang put down his teacup, frowned thoughtfully, and said after a moment: "After what happened with Su An, it's normal for you to be worried. Let's wait and see. They may not really mean what you think, but it's always better to be cautious."

He comforted Mrs. Wang and asked her to prepare a gift for the Su family when the time comes.

Mrs. Wang nodded: "Of course I won't forget this, but we are getting closer and closer to the Su family in such a high-profile manner, are we afraid that..."

She indicated to Master Wang that this might offend the Fenyang Palace and the Zhuang Palace.

He added, "I heard that Princess Chun'an is seriously ill and the imperial physician has been away for several days."

Master Wang didn't agree. He stroked his beard and said calmly, "It's okay to say that our family and the He family are relatives. Our sister married into the He family and we have been tied together for a long time. Even if we are not close to the He and Su families, we will not be pleasing to them. In this case, what is there to worry about? Of course, the more prosperous the Su family is, the better."

Mrs. Wang felt relieved.

Princess Chun'an was so nervous that she couldn't even close her eyes. Whenever she closed her eyes, she would always dream of Shao Wenxun and how he suffered in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

As a couple for many years, no matter if Shao Wenxun did many wrong things hiding from her, his feelings for her were not fake, and his accommodation and tolerance for her were also real.

It was too difficult for her to just watch Shao Wenxun die without helping him.

With a creak, the door opened and the light from outside rushed in. Princess Chun'an couldn't help but cover her eyes with her hands. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Prince Fenyang standing not far away.

Her nose felt sore and she felt angry and hurt in her heart, so she simply turned her back to him.

Prince Fenyang looked unhappy. He signaled his men to bring a chair over. He sat not far away and looked at her from behind for a while before saying, "How can you get better if you always refuse to take medicine and sleep?"

The grievances she had felt for some time finally found an outlet. Princess Chun'an said something without thinking: "Let her die of illness! In your eyes, the life or death of your daughter is not important anyway!"

"Nonsense!" Prince Fenyang frowned and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about?! If I didn't care about your life or death, why would I ask Doctor Hu to come here three times a day? There should be a limit to your nonsense. Shao Wenxun has violated the law. You should be grateful that the emperor did not vent his anger on your father. You actually dreamed of asking me to save him. Do you have a brain?!"

The servants had told her these truths countless times, but Princess Chun'an refused to listen to a word.

How could she listen

These people were talking nonsense and comforting her, but they couldn't put themselves in her shoes and think about her pain. She whimpered, sat up suddenly and stared at King Fenyang: "So you're just going to let me watch him die?"

"You don't have to watch helplessly!" Prince Fenyang refused to give in and said pointedly, "He's already dead!"

The room suddenly fell silent. Princess Chun'an opened her eyes wide with a look of confusion and horror.

She didn't respond for a long time and was stunned for a moment.

Prince Fenyang looked at her with a gloomy face and said in a cold tone: "The emperor hasn't sent a sentence to him yet, but he couldn't bear it and committed suicide out of fear of punishment. What's the point of you worrying about such a selfish person who doesn't care about his wife and children at all?"

Princess Chun'an's face turned pale, and even her lips were trembling slightly. She looked at Prince Fenyang and was speechless.

Prince Fenyang didn't care about that. Seeing her looking at him, he stared into her eyes and said, "You should be thankful. If something happened to me, you wouldn't be lying here, being visited by the imperial physician three times a day, being so stubborn and refusing to drink bird's nest, but would be in the death row of the Ministry of Justice like Shao Wenxun! You are so sick and dying, have you ever thought about your children? Have you ever thought about your father? Besides, being sick can save him."

Princess Chun'an's face turned pale after being scolded, and she stared at her father in a daze.

After a long while, she opened her mouth like a ghost and uttered a sentence: "Father, you don't know what Wenxun did, do you?"

Prince Fenyang turned around and looked at her suddenly.

Princess Chun'an curled her lips and said, "He is greedy, but he is always very sensible. He dare not do anything without your permission..."

Prince Fenyang looked at him intently but said nothing.

Princess Chun'an's expression changed, and she laughed at herself: "It's just what I guessed..." Seeing that Prince Fenyang was about to speak, she raised her head and looked at him coldly: "As you said, if you fall, I will be really finished. So don't worry, I won't go into the details of how Wenxun died, but I want to ask you to promise me one thing."

Prince Fenyang narrowed his eyes, and finally said, "You say."

Princess Chun'an stared at him with a pale face and said word by word: "I want the Su family to die!"
