When leaving Qianyuan Palace, Wen Qingzhu glanced in the direction of Hanbing Palace.
Lei Xiao stood beside her and asked, "Do you doubt Wan Bin?"
"It's just suspicion, no evidence." Wen Qingzhu felt that she needed to investigate the situation in Shuzhou.
Following Lei Xiao outside, he waited until there were no other people around, then he started chatting about Wen Qingruo.
"I have sent people to Shuzhou to investigate. Everyone in the Deng family died in a fire three years ago."
Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu suddenly stopped.
Lei Xiao glanced at her: "Let's talk while we walk."
Wen Qingzhu followed slowly, and then learned about what was going on in Shuzhou.
Three years ago, Shuzhou sent a new magistrate there, but the local people didn't like it very much.
Because this time, the prefect of Shuzhou was not their local.
In the past, in order to appease the people in Shuzhou, the capital made an exception and selected local people as magistrates.
After all, Shuzhou is also located in a large mountain with many ethnic groups, making it difficult to manage.
Earlier, the caravan that passed through Shuzhou never returned, and problems began to emerge.
The imperial envoy sent by the capital came back, but soon either resigned and returned to his hometown or died of illness.
Not to mention the emperor, all the officials in the capital felt that there must be something wrong in Shuzhou.
Soldiers were sent to suppress the situation, and the person who went there was the eldest son of the Minister of War.
But in fact, it was King Ning's people who took command among them, and they made great achievements.
So three years ago, a new prefect was successfully sent there. The Deng family was a prominent family in Shuzhou. It fell overnight and the locals did not dare to resist.
But the Deng family was not completely dead. Wen Qingruo, his wife and their youngest son were the survivors.
Naturally, they were comforted, but soon they left Shuzhou City and returned to their hometown.
Not long after, they came to Beijing.
"Are they here for revenge?" Wen Qingzhu asked.
Lei Xiao was silent for a moment: "Half of the reason should be this."
"What's the other half of the reason?"
Lei Xiao didn't say anything this time and only asked Wen Qingzhu to go back quickly and prepare for the wedding.
Looking at Lei Xiao's leaving figure, Wen Qingzhu felt that Lei Xiao must know something.
Just after returning to Xue's house, Shaoyao came over with someone.
"Sister Du!"
Du Weiniang was blessed: "I have met Miss Wen, so I took the liberty of visiting. Please forgive me for visiting."
After sitting down in the room, Du Weiniang took out a prescription.
Wen Qingzhu took it and looked at it, and found that it was actually a way to control black insect disease.
"Where are you from?"
Du Weiniang glanced at Shaoyao and Lutao, Wen Qingzhu understood and let them go down.
Seeing that there was no one around, Du Weiniang said with relief: "Ms. Wen may not believe it, but I learned all my medical skills in Shuzhou."
"Have you been to Shuzhou?" Although Wen Qingzhu was surprised, he did not show it.
Du Weiniang said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that Shuzhou blackworm disease could actually be found in the capital. This is an evil medical skill inherited from Shuzhou. The Deng family is one of the inherited families. My grandmother's family is from Deng family."
"Because of Zhang Yao's relationship, you knew the situation in the capital and knew that someone was going to deliberately create blackworm disease, so you prepared the grass early in the morning?"
Du Weiniang nodded: "Well, after I found out that your eldest sister was married to the Deng family, I immediately went to Beijing. I heard that the third son of the Deng family is still in Dali Temple."
"Um."
Having said this, Du Weiniang stood up: "I can help you resolve this crisis."
Wen Qingzhu also stood up: "What do the Du family want?"
"Let's talk about it then." Du Weiniang didn't plan to say it now.
But Wen Qingzhu stopped her: "If you don't tell me first, then I don't need your help."
"You can't deal with black insects raised by living people!" Du Weiniang frowned.
Wen Qingzhu still insisted on his opinion: "It must be made clear in advance."
After being silent for a long time, Du Weiniang finally said: "Our Du family owed Prince Ning our life, so we hope that the credit this time will go to Prince Ning."
"Do you think this matter can be hidden from the emperor?"
Du Weiniang looked at Wen Qingzhu calmly: "That's why I came to see Miss Wen."
Then, she looked at Wen Qingzhu's belly and said, "Besides, our Du family has ways to help you detoxify and allow your child to be born smoothly."
More than half an hour later, Wen Qingzhu touched his belly and began to struggle in his heart.
At night, Wen Qingzhu made a decision in his mind.
When she was about to go out, Fu Lie brought Xi'er back, along with Du Weiniang.
After sending Xi'er to the room, Du Weiniang said directly: "Xi'er's body has been planted with black insect poison. It will take some time to resolve the poison."
Wen Qingzhu looked at Du Weiniang and closed the door directly, leaving Fu Lie outside.
The two of them were standing, and Fu Lie asked her, "Would you like to sit next door?"
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "No need."
There was another strange silence, and Wen Qingzhu suddenly asked: "Do you want this child?"
Fu Lie turned around and met Wen Qingzhu's eyes, but he couldn't say what he wanted to say.
He could see that Wen Qingzhu wanted this child.
Two hours later, Du Weiniang came out.
Her face was a little pale. When she went in, her lips were red, but now she came out, they were pale.
"Xi'er's life has been saved. Miss Wen should decide as soon as possible."
After Du Weiniang said this, she left without any hesitation.
Fu Lie looked at Du Weiniang and then at Wen Qingzhu: "What deal did you make?"
Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu sneered: "In the heart of Ping Guohou, this is who I am?"
Wen Qingzhu turned around and left. She suddenly realized that it was ridiculous for her to ask Fu Lie what he thought.
Maybe he never cared about the child in his belly.
The next day, the situation in the capital was brought under control.
With the method provided by Du Weiniang, Wei Yu's people can also enter the Wen family.
They searched and found Wanshi, who was covered in black insects and had become a corpse.
We also found Wen Mingyu, who was dying and suffering from blackworm disease.
As for Wen Bogui, he was not in the Wen family at all.
When Wei Yu and the others were leaving with the body, an old woman with black spots all over her body suddenly ran out from the door next to her.
"My lord! My lord! Save our old lady!"
The grandma shouted while running, and then fell.
Wei Yu glanced at the door. It belonged to Wen Jihua's family, but hadn't he heard earlier that their family had moved to the vicinity of Fengguo Temple
With the old woman's prayers, Wei Yu went in to take a look and found Mrs. Liu who was bedridden.
After hesitating, Wei Yu sent his men to bring out all the people who were still alive, but put them all in isolation.
Then send someone to find Wen Jihua.
After learning that such a big thing happened to his Wen family, Wen Jihua's face turned ugly. After thanking Wei Yu, he returned to the other courtyard.
When he arrived at the door of his house, Wen Qingxin was unusually waiting for him.
"Dad, you're back."
"It's you! It's you, isn't it? You knew something would happen to Wen Bogui's family! So you deliberately kept your mother at home! You just wanted her to die, right?"
Wen Jihua looked at his daughter in front of him and suddenly felt that Wen Qingxin was a monster!
A monster whose words will cause disaster to come true!
"Grandma should have died." Wen Qingxin said this indifferently.
Wen Jihua was so angry that he stepped forward and slapped her.
Covering her beaten face, Wen Qingxin actually laughed, which made Wen Jihua's hair stand on end.
He backed away repeatedly, pointed at Wen Qingxin and cursed: "You monster! Evil ghost! Get out! Get out of here! Get away! If it weren't for you, why would your mother be seriously ill and unable to afford it! If it weren't for you! Why would your brother take the exam one after another?" No! Just spend your whole life with that bald donkey in Fengguo Temple!"
Wen Mingliang in the room heard the sound and ran out quickly, protecting Wen Qingxin, looking at Wen Jihua angrily and anxiously: "Dad! What are you doing! If it weren't for my sister! Dad would have died in charge of Prince Huai's Mansion. Under the hooves of a horse! My mother won’t survive now! I might be dead too! How could dad say that to my sister!”
Wen Jihua pointed at Wen Qingxin and shouted: "Do you know what she wants to do! She wants to kill my mother! That's my mother! The mother who gave birth to me and raised me!"
Wen Mingliang really wanted to defend himself, but he couldn't say anything because he said, "It's my mother."
But at this time, Wen Qingxin spoke calmly and indifferently: "Father, do you know what will happen next? Grandma's illness will get better."
"Really?" Wen Jihua suddenly felt happy.
But Wen Qingxin's next words gave him a heavy blow.
"The first thing my grandmother did when she woke up was to complain. My uncle, my third uncle, and you were all unavoidable, and my brother would be infected with blackworm disease because of this incident. It was you, father, who forced my brother to fulfill his filial piety. , Brother, he..."
Wen Qingxin didn't finish what he said next, but it was enough.
Wen Jihua could no longer say a word, but his eyes looking at Wen Qingxin became more and more frightened.
He looked at it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but turn around and run away.
"Brother, am I really a monster?" Wen Qingxin's tears finally fell uncontrollably.
She just wanted to protect her family, was she wrong
If she hadn't foreseen the danger in advance, their whole family would have died due to the black insect disease.
Daddy used to like her so much, why is it like this today
Wen Mingliang turned around. Although there was fatigue on his face, he still had no grudge. He hugged her very distressedly: "Xin'er, brother will always protect you! Daddy just can't understand it for the rest of his life! If it weren't for you, How can we survive until now?"
Wen Qingxin buried her head in Wen Mingliang's arms, but her tears did not stop.
But she felt a lot better in her heart. Fortunately, her brother understood her.
After comforting Wen Qingxin, Wen Mingliang let her go, looked into her eyes and said, "Shall we leave the capital?"
"Brother!" Wen Qingxin understood what Wen Mingliang meant. He wanted to leave Huixin by himself!
Wen Qingxin slowly pushed Wen Mingliang away, and said with a sad smile: "I will never leave him! Never!" "Xin'er! Why do you have to like him? He is a monk and doesn't know how to marry. Give birth to a child!" Wen Mingliang didn't understand, was it just because his sister dreamed about Huixin
"No, brother won't understand. I won't force him. I just need to stand not far away and watch him. As long as he is fine."
After Wen Qingxin said these words, she turned around and walked into the house.
Wen Mingliang suddenly lowered his head and started crying, but he quickly wiped away his tears and his eyes became firm again. No matter what method he used, Wen Qingxin must be taken away.
We can’t stay in the capital!
