stepson

Even though Shang Xuanlie wanted to kill Meng Shaojie so much, he endured it at this moment.He still had luck in his heart, what if Meng Shaojie was really just the adopted son of his mother and concubine?For this little luck, Shang Xuanlie endured all the time, and followed Meng Shaojie back to the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, Shang Xuanlie's martial arts were few and far between. He easily sneaked into the city lord's mansion, and when he saw that he had entered the study of the main mansion, he followed.

Inside the house, Concubine Zhang was discussing matters with a middle-aged man. The man had an ordinary face, but his eyes were full of affection when he looked at Concubine Zhang.

"Mother, father." After Meng Shaojie entered the study, he smiled and shouted to the two people in the study.

After Shang Xuanlie on the roof heard this sound, his heart was completely chilled. A chill that could not be described in words spread out from the cracks in his bones, crawled all over his body, and then shivered.The most unwanted truth finally came true.Meng Shaojie is really his half-brother!He really wanted to rush down and ask Princess Zhang, where did she put his son in this way!

"Jie'er, you're back!" Princess Zhang's originally frowning brows relaxed after seeing Meng Shaojie.She went forward with a handkerchief, wiped the sweat off Meng Shaojie's head, and said, "I don't seem to be stable at all, and I'm still jumping like this. Is the rebel army so easy to catch? It's hard to lead a team out this time." Got something?"

"Of course I did. My son found out about Fan Changkong's whereabouts, but when they arrived, they ran away again." Meng Shaojie was very disappointed.

"Fan Changkong is an old fox in the world, how can it be so easy to catch? You are afraid that you have fallen into Fan Changkong's trick. It is said that the cunning rabbit has three holes, how could Fan Changkong let you, a brat, catch him? But go out and experience it. Good. The northwest is not peaceful recently, and I'm afraid there will be another war." Meng Bin said with a solemn face.

Meng Shaojie looked at his parents suspiciously, and asked, "Why did the mother ask the son to rush back this time?"

Concubine Zhang's smile faded, and she said sternly: "Shang Xuandong is dead. It was Shang Zhengxing's side concubine Li who ordered people to do it." Although Concubine Zhang has been in the border town for many years, she has her own eyeliner in Bei'an Palace. Naturally, her every move cannot escape her eyes.

"Then mother is going back to preside over the affairs of the palace?" Meng Shaojie asked.

"No, after a while, wait for all Shang Zhengxing's sons to die before going back." Princess Zhang waved her hands coldly.

Meng Shaojie looked at Concubine Zhang suspiciously, obviously not understanding what this matter had to do with letting him come back.

"It's not peaceful now. Your mother is worried about you, so she asked you to come back." Meng Bin sighed, "Your mother is worried that Shang Xuanlie will definitely come to your mother after fleeing back to the northwest. She is afraid that you will run into him and tell you to go to your uncle. shelter for a while.”

As soon as he heard Shang Xuanlie, Meng Shaojie immediately asked: "If he comes, what will mother do?" brother.

"This has nothing to do with you, I have my own plans for my mother." Princess Zhang obviously didn't want to tell him this.Meng Shaojie couldn't help feeling wronged when he heard this. He wrinkled his face and took Zhang Wangfei's hand, saying: "In mother's heart, son is the most important thing, right? Mother won't give up her son for the sake of elder brother, right?"

"That's natural." Seeing him like this, Princess Zhang couldn't help but soften her expression, rubbed his head, and sighed in her heart, she was still a child.

Meng Shaojie immediately laughed when he heard Princess Zhang's assurance.Secretly proud in his heart, even if his identity is not visible, so what if he is not as good as Shang Xuanlie!Mother still likes him the most, as long as the plan is right, everything in Bei'an Palace is not his?He sneaked a glance at Meng Bin, and Meng Bin gave him an appreciative look.

"Okay, Jie'er, you go down first, I have something to discuss with your mother as a father." Meng Bin took the initiative to send Meng Shaojie down.

"Oh, good. Then we will have dinner together at noon. My son will leave first."

After seeing Meng Shaojie go, Meng Bin hesitated and asked: "My lady, if Shang Xuanlie came to look for you, what are you going to do? Almost the whole border town knows what happened between us. As long as he arrives in the border town, he must be I can't hide it."

Concubine Zhang stared at Meng Bin and sighed: "You shouldn't have leaked the things between us back then."

"Are you regretting being with me?" Meng Bin's face changed, both sad and sad. "You also know that I have liked you since I was a child. I am not convinced to see you marry that soft guy Shang Zhengxing. If I had Shang Zhengxing's identity and background, I would definitely not watch you marry him! You also know that , I did this to tie you down. I just want the whole world to know that you are my wife, Meng Bin!"

Concubine Zhang liked Meng Bin's tricks very much, she immediately compromised and said: "Of course I don't regret being with my husband! When Shang Xuanlie was imprisoned by the emperor in the prison, I didn't save him. You should know what I mean. We How about putting the border town under martial law immediately? Interrogate people from other places, and then order the people in the city to keep their mouths shut so that they don’t let us leak out. Even if Shang Xuanlie comes, as long as he controls his whereabouts and prevents him from contacting outsiders, he will He will definitely not know about the affairs between us. At that time, we will put him under house arrest and raise him for the rest of his life. It will never hinder Jie Er."

"Okay then, just do what Madam said." Meng Bin was satisfied when he heard that.

Shang Xuanlie listened to all their conversations on the roof, his heart felt as if he had been stabbed dozens of times, and he was also his son.The concubine mother is so kind to that bastard!He even regarded himself as a stumbling block!His eyes were red with anger, and Shang Xuanlie really wanted to go on regardless and tear Meng Bin and Meng Shaojie, father and son, into pieces.The only reason left in his mind told him not to do this.He bit the tip of his tongue to force himself to calm down.

He waited patiently on the roof.Meng Bin left the study, followed by Shang Xuanlie.

Meng Bin came to the yard of his son Meng Shaojie.Meng Shaojie was drinking with his arms around the concubine in the room when he saw him coming.Immediately send out the concubine.

"Father, what is mother going to do with Shang Xuanlie?" Meng Shaojie asked impatiently.

"Shang Xuanlie came out of your mother's womb after all. What she means is that as long as Shang Xuanlie comes to the border town, he will be put under house arrest." Meng Bin poured himself a glass of wine and took a sip.

"That's okay! As long as he is alive, I always feel uneasy." Meng Shaojie's face changed, and he threw the wine glass on the table, and he lost the mood to drink.

Meng Bin frowned, looked at him coldly and reprimanded: "Why are you so impatient, you don't have a brain at all! You didn't learn half of your mother's scheming from me and your mother! As long as he falls into our hands, Is it up to us to decide whether to live or die? In the first few years, he will definitely not die. After a few years, give him some medicine to weaken his body, and consume him bit by bit. Know?"

After hearing this, Meng Shaojie was silent for a while, and asked, "But I heard that Shang Xuanlie is the number one expert in Northwest China, how could he be caught so easily by us?"

"Isn't your mother here? What are you worried about? It's a big deal. I will use your mother's hand to give him a bowl of drugs, and then disable his martial arts." Meng Bin said nonchalantly, as if this matter was in his Not worth mentioning in his eyes.

"I just hope that father and mother's plan can be implemented smoothly." Meng Shaojie felt relieved after hearing Meng Bin's explanation, and picked up the jug and poured himself another glass of wine.

"Hmph! Shang Zhengxing is robbing me of my wife! I'm taking over your foundation of Bei'an Palace! Kill your son!" Meng Bin said viciously, and after saying this, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Shang Xuanlie couldn't listen anymore, this time the father and son were so dirty.They actually wanted to murder themselves!Lightly descending from the roof, Shang Xuanlie walked into the house from the yard.

Because of discussing matters with Meng Bin, Meng Shaojie sent away all the servants in the yard.When Shang Xuanlie came in, they all looked at Shang Xuanlie in surprise, thinking that he was a servant somewhere.

"Who are you? Why did you come here? You can come in my house?" Meng Shaojie scolded angrily.

Taking a careful look at the father and son, Shang Xuanlie said coldly: "Who am I? I'm the one you want to kill!"

"Shang Xuanlie!" Meng Bin exclaimed, so frightened that he couldn't hold the wine glass in his hand.And Meng Shaojie was also dumbfounded, he just sat there without any reaction.

"My concubine's eyesight is really bad!" Shang Xuanlie looked at Meng Bin with a twitch of his mouth and said disdainfully.After saying this, before they could react, he struck Meng Bin's head with his palm.

Suddenly, Meng Bin hit the wall and fell down.His neck was tilted, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he lost his breath.Meng Shaojie's father, who was talking to him just now, died in front of his eyes, he was too frightened to speak, his eyes were bulging, like a frightened frog.

Shang Xuanlie looked at Meng Shaojie with a cruel smile on his face, stepped forward and knocked him out with a palm, and carried him out of the city lord's mansion.After binding Meng Shaojie firmly, he took him out of the border city and hid.Shang Xuanlie sneaked back to the City Lord's Mansion.

During this round-trip for an hour, Princess Zhang had already discovered that Meng Bin was dead and Meng Shaojie had been taken away.She held back her grief, and her mind kept spinning, who could have such a skill, who could kill someone in the city lord's mansion, and still come and go freely?I thought about it, but I didn't know who it was.

Concubine Zhang is a resolute woman, she doesn't cry like ordinary women who don't have their own opinions.Instead, after discovering Meng Bin's body, he immediately ordered martial law throughout the city to track down suspicious people in the city.Then she wrote a letter asking her elder brother who was stationed dozens of miles away from the border town to return to the city.

After she had arranged everything, her heart relaxed, and only then did she feel the emptiness in her heart.Sitting alone in the study, weeping sadly.Shang Xuanlie, who was hiding on the beam of the house, felt a kind of distorted pleasure in his heart when he saw Princess Zhang being so sad.

Since you don't want me as a son, then I will no longer treat you as a mother!Concubine Zhang is his mother no matter what. At this point, Shang Xuanlie did not want to kill Concubine Zhang.Instead, he decided in his heart that after taking back everything from him, he would put Princess Zhang under house arrest and provide her with retirement.
