Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband
Chapter 145 Abandoned Son
Xiao Wenyin has angered the old princess, and now she knows that she must find ways to win the favor of Zheng Fengyun and others.
"Feng Hui, Feng Yun, Hui Yi, you haven't seen me for many days. Do you miss your dear sister Wen Yin?"
As soon as Xiao Wenyin finished speaking, all eyes were focused on her as if attracted by a magnet.
Before the three young people could respond cordially, the face of Princess Lao Duan beside them suddenly changed. She glanced at Xiao Wenyin coldly, interrupted her and turned to Gu Qinlan and spoke gently:
"Everyone is tired from the journey. Qinlan, you can take the children to rest first. The rest of the matters can be discussed tomorrow."
Gu Qinlan bowed slightly, her eyes flashing with a deep and complex light, and she glanced at Xiao Wenyin lightly, then responded softly: "Yes, mother."
After safely sending the group of children back to their respective homes, Gu Qinlan was finally able to leisurely soak in the warm bathtub.
Xiang Zhu carefully washed Gu Qinlan's hair, and at the same time couldn't help but say worriedly:
"Miss, I heard from Wocan that Xiao Wenyin almost wanted to kill the old princess. Do you think the old princess will be merciful again and let her off the hook?"
Xiang Zhu's worries are not groundless.
Xiao Wenyin grew up under the protection of Princess Lao Duan, as if she were her own daughter.
Although Xiao Wenyin gave away the identity of Princess Duan this time, she could easily excuse herself by saying that she was panicked.
Thinking that Xiao Wenyin might escape again, Xiang Zhu couldn't help feeling a little indignant.
Gu Qinlan heard this, her eyelids half closed, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she uttered one word softly: "No."
"No? What do you mean?" Xiang Zhu asked with some confusion.
"No matter how much she dotes on Xiao Wenyin, she will never allow her to surpass Zheng Dinglian."
Although Princess Lao Duan is kind-hearted, she is not unreasonable.
She has her own way of measuring right and wrong.
Xiao Wenyin betrayed Princess Laoduan in front of the Beizhai people. Although Princess Laoduan felt sad, she might not necessarily kill Xiao Wenyin.
But the key point is that Princess Lao Duan had already made it clear that those people arrested her in order to threaten Zheng Dinglian!
Therefore, the fate of Princess Lao Duan no longer concerns only her personal safety, but also involves the life and death of Zheng Dinglian!
In this situation, other women might understand the righteousness of family and country, but Xiao Wenyin chose to betray without hesitation!
This undoubtedly meant that Xiao Wenyin had pushed Zheng Dinglian into danger!
Princess Duan has only one son. How could she tolerate anyone threatening Zheng Dinglian's safety?
and so……
Xiao Wenyin didn't need her to do anything at all, Princess Lao Duan would definitely take care of it herself...
Gu Qinlan did not explain too much, but just instructed Xiang Zhu:
"Remember, those women who return from Rong'en Temple must be carefully taken care of, especially Sang Lingqiang."
Thinking of how Sang Lingqiang stood up for her in times of crisis regardless of her own safety, Gu Qinlan couldn't help but feel a little warm in her heart.
After the old princess looked around and saw everyone disperse, her eyes finally fell on Xiao Wenyin who was hesitating in her place, and she said in a cold tone:
"At dawn tomorrow, I will order someone to send you back to your hometown!"
Xiao Wenyin's eyes sparkled with tears when she heard this. Her eyes were instantly filled with grief. She slowly knelt down at the feet of Princess Lao Duan, tears streaming down her cheeks, and she choked with sobs and begged:
"Aunt! My parents died when I was young. My mother entrusted me to you personally when she was dying. Can you really bear to leave me alone and helpless? As an orphan, how can I survive alone in this dangerous world..."
Princess Lao Duan lowered her eyes and looked at the girl in front of her who was crying her heart out, and a trace of moisture welled up in her eyes.
She slowly squatted down, stretched out her trembling hands, and gently helped Xiao Wenyin up.
Seeing this, Xiao Wenyin was delighted, thinking that Princess Lao Duan had softened her heart. She was about to speak out her true feelings again, but she saw Princess Lao Duan with red eyes, and said in a firm tone:
"If it weren't for your mother, I would never have taken you in."
"However, over the years, you have lacked nothing that my family has; I have also tried my best to satisfy you with what my family does not have! I have a clear conscience and have done my best to care for you!"
"But you shouldn't, you shouldn't put Prince Duan's Mansion and my son's safety in danger! If you really understand gratitude, you should leave on your own accord. But if you have other intentions, don't blame me for no longer cherishing our friendship!"
When Xiao Wenyin heard this, she looked at Princess Lao Duan in horror and subconsciously grabbed the hem of her skirt tightly.
"Aunt, I was wrong. Please don't chase me away, okay?"
Princess Lao Duan gently but firmly pulled back her skirt, looked at Xiao Wenyin deeply, then turned and left.
Xiao Wenyin looked at the gradually receding figure of Princess Laoduan and sat down on the ground helplessly. Her body trembled uncontrollably, her eyes full of confusion and resentment!
Why is this so?
Over the years, she has worked hard and served her old aunt like a horse and an ox!
Now it was just a momentary negligence, but she wanted to kick her out without mercy!
Well, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!
At the same time, in a very gorgeous house.
"Bang!" With a loud noise, an exquisite teacup was thrown heavily to the ground and turned into pieces in an instant!
"A good-for-nothing!! Bai Yujing, this useless good-for-nothing!!"
Everyone held their breath and stared with trepidation at the man in black robe who was sitting at the upper seat!
The man's face was filled with anger, and his eyes flashed with cold murderous intent.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Bai Yujing has been captured and the evidence is irrefutable. Dongfang Minxu and his daughter have already escorted Bai Yujing and the remains of the Bei Zhai spy to the palace to meet His Majesty!"
"If Bai Yujing cannot bear the pressure and involves you, our carefully planned layout will probably face a complete collapse. Lord, please quickly come up with a good countermeasure!"
Below the black-robed man sat several advisers. They looked at the black-robed man's extremely angry expression. Although their hearts were filled with fear, they were more worried about the situation being leaked.
If they stepped forward at this moment, they might be reprimanded by their lord, but if Bai Yujing confessed everything, their lord would probably have no hope of succeeding the throne!
The man in black robe naturally understood all of this in his heart. After the fire, he sat back in his chair, took a deep breath, and finally calmed down.
His fingertips tapped lightly on the table, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of coldness, and he said coldly:
"A useless chess piece would be a burden if kept, so it should be discarded. Besides... on the surface, Bai Yujing and I have no connection, but he and the Ninth Prince are relatives."
"What your Excellency means is..." an aide asked cautiously.
"Since the trap has been set, how can we return empty-handed..."
"Your Excellency, your opinion is profound! Since someone must bear the charge of treason, the Ninth Prince is indeed a perfect scapegoat."
