Chapter 0014 Follow-up (1 / 2)

Xiang Capsicum froze and looked up, but Chen Zian did not want to or dare to look her in the eyes.

He dropped the cloak in his hands in a panic and turned to walk quickly.

Chen Zian secretly laughed at himself inwardly, as if every time he met her, he left in a sorry state.

Xiang Capsicum hesitated for a moment, but still put on the cloak given by Chen Zian. The cloak was simple in style, and even if it was used by a slave, it was not obtrusive, but inside it was very thick and warm, just like her heart at the moment.

It was a good night’s sleep for the shambler.

The next day, news from the Outer House came one after another, last night Liu Wenjing committed suicide in prison, while Mama Jin managed to survive last night, and the Side Consort was so kind that she decided to spare the troupe and the old and young Liu family.

Later, she heard people in the house underling discussion, that Liu Wenjing’s sister was called Liu Zhizhi, born of water spirit, singing and playing all good, this is the theater troupe’s leading flower girl. The Prince of Su in one of the theater, a glance at the Liu Zhizhi, forced to take her as a concubine.

Liu Zhizhi was originally favored by the king, but for some reason she lost her footing and fell into a lake during a garden tour, and when her body was recovered, it was discovered that she was pregnant with the king’s child, killing her twice.

Prince Su’s heir is thin and most of them die early, Liu Zhizhi’s death made him furious, and he made a big fuss to investigate the matter thoroughly, but nothing was found out, and he only punished a few subordinates and passed away.

But yesterday, listening to that Liu Wenjing’s statement, Liu Zhizhi is actually the side consort of the Queen’s harm?

Xiang Capsicum did not dare to think about it, but more and more feel the hand of the gold bracelet vaguely hot, she hastily removed, into the pocket.

Even if Xiang Capsicum did not go to talk to people about this matter in detail, such remarks soon became very popular in the Chen Mansion and the neighborhood. Everyone speculated that the Lady Side Consort really killed that Liu Zhizhi, otherwise how would that Liu Wengjing dare to risk the risk of executing nine clans to assassinate the Lady Side Consort?

However, the rumors were quickly suppressed, Wang Butler’s methods are ruthless, executed a few underlings who chewed the cud, and no more fearless dare to talk about this matter.

Autumn is deep, an autumn rain came, sweeping down countless still attached to the branches of the dry leaves, but also took away the blood stains in the courtyard.

Outside the window the fine rain was drizzling, and inside the ancestral hall of the Chen Mansion, a serious deliberation was taking place.

“Madam, Young Lady, you two have disappointed me too much!” Chen Qingxiong sat on a carved wooden chair and frowned deeply, “Such an important banquet was given to you to organize! How come you didn’t even do a body search? Surprisingly, you allowed this bold thief to blend into the theater troupe, and even brought in blades, if something really happened to the side consort, what do you ask the Chen family to do!”

Xu’s and Xie’s face like dirt kneeling down to ask for punishment, Chen Zisheng on the sidelines in silence, Chen Qingxiong in the fiftieth birthday was swept away face, very ugly, still want to scold a few words, Chen Zi’an hastened to come out to plead for leniency to: “Father, this matter has already happened, now the most important thing is not to punish our family, should be to hurry to think of ideas, as soon as possible, to eliminate the impact of this matter to be good! “

Chen Qingxiong looked at Chen Zi’an, his anger calmed down a little, and reluctantly showed a smile: “Zi’an, good boy, my father did not misjudge you, I just didn’t realize that not only are you well read, but your way of projecting is also different from the norm. If not that day at the banquet, you can hit that thief, my Chen family is now afraid of a long time in prison, and can not have the leisure to deliberate here. To have a son like you is a blessing for my Chen family!”

For so many years, Chen Qingxiong had always been a strict father, very stern to his family, and had rarely praised his son in this way. Xu’s face showed surprise when she heard this, while Chen Zisheng’s eyes showed some cynicism, and quickly lowered his head to prevent being seen by his father.

Xie Jialong remained in her kneeling position, also bowing her head deeply, but there was a hint of joy and pride in her heart as she secretly looked toward Chen Zian.

Chen Zi’an quickly bent his head and said humbly, “Father is too kind, Zi’an deserves no credit. It was a fluke that I was able to hit the thieves that day.”

Chen Qingxiong nodded and continued, ”My father knows that Zi’an is talking about the recent rumors in the community. In fact, this matter for the father and the side consort lady are also worried, the king has doubts about the past, has not gone to see the side consort mother and child for several days. Only, that day the birthday banquet participants are very many, I am afraid that all heard the words of that thief, to Chen Fu’s own strength, how to plug the mouth of the people?”

Zi’an arched his hand and said, “My son has a plan that may ease the worries of aunt and father!”
