After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

In an alley not far away, Yuxiu quickly found the house with its own entrance and courtyard. It still looked very grand, so she knew she had found the right place.

Maybe because Ren Wanfu was murdered, the old guy arranged a lot of guards here today. Tall and strong men held torches and had long swords on their waists, patrolling back and forth in the yard.

However, these were of no use to Yuxiu, who was already on high alert. She looked at the men who were on high alert, a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she disappeared from the corner in an instant.

When she appeared again, she was already in the old man's inner courtyard.

"Wanniang, you must fight for your pregnancy. If you can get pregnant with a son in the shortest possible time, I will keep my promise and make you my wife immediately. When our son is born, he will be a legitimate son."

A somewhat hoarse voice sounded in the room. Yuxiu quickly hid herself behind the window and listened carefully to the conversation inside.

"Oh, sir, the adults have just left, and we are talking about these things here. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?"

The woman's voice was so gentle that Yuxiu felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard it. But the old man seemed to enjoy it very much and kept talking and laughing with the woman in the room.

Yuxiu was somewhat suspicious of this man's identity. Wasn't it said that after Ren Wanfu died, Old Master Ren was very sad?

How come you still have the leisure to flirt with a woman here?

She thought she had found the wrong person, so she didn't rush in to deal with him. She waited patiently behind the window, and when the two people in the room were not paying attention, she gently opened a small gap in the window.

However, Yuxiu only leaned forward to take a look, then quickly retracted her head. Feeling that it was very offensive, she pushed the window back.

"It's better for him to die. Otherwise, I would want to vomit blood just thinking about seeing my son, whom I raised with great effort, listen to my good brother in everything."

There was an inexplicable resentment in the man's voice, and he continued:

"From now on, we can do whatever we want, and no one will interfere. As for our son, I can afford to raise eight or ten of him."

"Then I will try to get pregnant as soon as possible, and I will definitely give you a son. Master, you must keep your word..."

Then there was a rustling sound coming from inside. Seeing that the two were about to take the next step, Yuxiu became a little anxious. She didn't want to be disgusted by the two people inside for no reason, so she pushed open the window and sprinkled a handful of medicine powder in.

This sudden change startled the two people in the room, but the power of the powder was too strong. The two of them didn't even make a sound. They just rolled their eyes and fell limply to the ground.

Fortunately, the room where these two people were located was in the inner courtyard. Even if there were some noises, the servants were already used to it and no one came to check.

After Yuxiu entered the room, she saw a fat middle-aged man lying on the ground. He was only wearing a snow-white silk undershirt and was lying on the ground with his legs spread out.

Seeing his appearance, Yuxiu knew that she had not chosen the wrong person this time.

This man was covered in greasy white fat that made his clothes bulge out, and his face was shiny and smooth. He looked 70% similar to the dead Ren Wanfu, indeed they were father and son.

The other woman was only wearing a thin gauze dress, which was torn to reveal half of her chest. Her bright little face was rosy. Even though she fell down, she was still leaning against Old Master Ren.

Yuxiu shook her head, took a rope, tied up the two men, and blocked their mouths, then slowly began to search the house.

Needless to say, the gold, silver and jewelry were all collected into the space one after another. As for the clean clothes in the boxes, Yuxiu decided to put them away regardless of whether they had been worn by others or not.

Anyway, these two people will not be of any use in the future, and it would be a waste to throw them away. She might as well give them away. If she meets a poor family like the Li family in the future, she can give them to them, whether she uses them herself or exchanges them for a few copper coins. It would be very good.

As for the exquisite furniture in the house, Yuxiu did not let them go this time. She put them all into the space. When she passed by Old Master Ren, she kicked him hard twice.

You bastard, you seem to know how to enjoy yourself. You are just the elder brother of an old eunuch, yet you can enjoy yourself like this and endanger the people. It seems that the current emperor is also blind and doesn't even know that there is such a parasite hiding around him.

Yuxiu didn't know that at this moment, there was a middle-aged man in the palace who was still reviewing memorials by lamplight. He was wearing a bright yellow coat and had his brows tightly furrowed. After looking for a while, he picked up the brush and began to make comments with dissatisfaction. However, before he wrote two words, he sneezed several times in succession.

"Your Majesty, it's late at night, why don't you rest first?"

The old eunuch serving behind him hurried forward and asked cautiously.

"I'm fine. If these things are not dealt with today, I will be even busier tomorrow."

The emperor rubbed his head with a headache, and saw that because of his sneeze, a string of ink had dripped onto the memorial, blurring the words on it. He couldn't help but sigh and put down the brush in his hand helplessly.

Now the people of several states are struggling on the brink of life and death. It is all because of his incompetence as an emperor that this situation has occurred.

During this period of time, his ears felt like they were burning every day. He thought that those suffering people must be cursing him in secret.

However, natural disasters have occurred repeatedly in recent years, and he even suspected that he had done something unforgivable to heaven and earth, which caused the people to suffer.

Originally, he was thinking of praying for the people himself, but the civil and military officials threatened to commit suicide to persuade him to do so. Finally, he had no choice but to send two princes to pray for him. It depended on whether the drought could be effectively alleviated after this prayer.

The emperor was no longer in the mood to review the memorials, so the old eunuch Xing Gonggong quickly called the young eunuch in and waited for him to go back to the harem to rest.

After Eunuch Xing personally served the emperor to sleep, when he returned to his own room, there were also young eunuchs coming to serve him. It is no exaggeration to say that his life in the palace was more comfortable than those of the ministers.

But Eunuch Xing, who was enjoying his life, didn't know that his nephew had been killed last night, and his only eldest brother would be in trouble soon.
