After being reborn, I became a scumbag and his aunt

Chapter 544 Liao Yuansi

The servant girl was terrified by Wang Caidan's eyes.

The princess has always been kind to others, and has never been so strict. At this time, her gloomy and stern appearance is very much like the son of the world.

The servant girl stabilized her mind, rehearsed what she had heard in her mind, and only answered when there was no mistake.

"It is said that it has been spread outside that all the officials implicated in the treason case have been dealt with, or have their homes confiscated, exiled, or demoted. Only the Liao family in Linzhou was not implicated, and even got promoted and made a fortune. Mr. Liao's grandfather was originally arrested. Imprisoned in Linzhou State Prison, now he is not only released, but also rewarded with a hundred acres of fertile land. Mr. Liao's father was promoted two ranks, transferred to the left servant of the Ministry of War, and became a Beijing official."

Wang Caidan's face was gloomy.

It was Liao Yuansi who betrayed the Wang family!
That's right, that day when he went to his eldest brother's study, he happened to meet Liao Yuansi coming out.The eldest brother was very happy at that time, saying that the Wang family was saved.Presumably at that time, Liao Yuansi set up a trap, and the elder brother trusted him, so he jumped in without hesitation!
Wang Caidan didn't speak, but the mourning hall is so big, and soon someone noticed her strangeness.

"Danyang, what happened?"

The person who asked the question was Wang Pu, the second son of the Wang family and the second son of the concubine.

He is different from Wang Mao's tall, thin and gloomy, with thin skin and tender flesh, and frivolous eyes, very much like his aunt who was born as an actress.

Although Wang Pu has the status of an elder brother, he is quite cautious in his words of concern. After all, Wang Caidan's daughter-in-law also has the title of princess, so she is naturally superior to him.What's more, the Queen Mother has always wanted her to be a princess, and her future status can be said to be below one person and above ten thousand people.The royal family will depend on her to survive in the future.

Wang Caidan didn't feel that he was caring for his sister, but he was just here to inquire about the news. More importantly, he wanted to show his identity as the future head of the Wang family, right?
The father only had the eldest brother and one legitimate son. Both the father and the eldest brother passed away, and the other younger brothers were all underage. The only one who inherited the title was the second son, Wang Pu.

It took only half a day to get out of the big prison, and he ordered this and that, arrogantly, he was everywhere.

When the eldest brother was around, he didn't even dare to say a word out loud!
Wang Caidan didn't even raise his head, but said in a calm tone, "Second brother, you should keep watch."

Wang Pu was quite dissatisfied with her indifference. Now that the emperor released them from prison, it must be the queen mother who kept them.As long as the title of Lord Zhen Guo is still there, he must inherit it.If it really counts, he, the Duke of the state, is no worse than Wang Caidan, the princess, is she still the same as before?
Wang Puyu said earnestly, "We are brothers and sisters, sharing weal and woe. Is there anything we can't say? Don't worry, no matter what happens, the second brother will make the decision for you."

Wang Caidan looked at him coldly, "You decide for me? Why do you decide for me?"

Wang Pu gritted his teeth secretly, naturally because of my status as the future Patriarch of the Wang family!
But Wang Caidan still has the identity of the future princess, he didn't dare to offend easily, so he had to talk to each other.Seeing that she was always sluggish and ignored her answers, Wang Pu retreated to his seat and continued to watch the spirit.

Seeing that Wang Caidan was in a bad mood and refused to show face to others, the bystanders also gave up their thoughts of comforting others. They all lowered their brows and lowered their eyes, or cried or remained silent, each with their own concerns.

In the current Duke's Mansion, the only one they can really rely on is Wang Caidan.If you want to find a good future for yourself, you must try to coax her well in the future.

In the entire mourning hall, the only one who was so focused on crying was probably only Mrs. Zhen Guogong and his wife.She was lying beside the coffin, with her husband on one side and her son who had worked so hard to raise her on the other. Her half-life reliance and pride were all dead.

Wang Caidan was still immersed in his anger towards Liao Yuansi, so he heard the voice of the steward outside saying hello, "Mr. Liao."

Then there was Liao Yuansi's cool voice, "I'm here to bid farewell to Duke Zhen and his son."

"Yes." The steward replied respectfully, his tone was very respectful, even flattering.

Wang Caidan suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the door.

As the curtain opened, Liao Yuansi walked in.

He was wearing a moon-white straight dress, which was orchid and elegant, a gentleman facing the wind like a jade tree.Without squinting, he went straight to the coffin and saluted.

Wang Caidan stood up abruptly and rushed forward, pushing towards his shoulder.

Liao Yuansi was unprepared and staggered back.

He stood firm, his face remained unchanged, he didn't seem to be surprised by Wang Caidan's strangeness, and he said in a cool and cold voice, "My condolences to the princess."

"Don't be hypocritical!"

Wang Caidan looked at him coldly, and said sternly, "The government of the town has a poisonous snake, and one of them was bitten if he didn't guard against it!"

Liao Yuansi tidied up his robe unhurriedly, and said in a low voice, "I know the princess has something to ask, why don't I take a step to speak."

Wang Caidan did have a lot to ask him.

She turned around and left the mourning hall, and went to the Nuan Pavilion that she entered at the back, and asked the maid to guard outside the door.

Standing in the center of the warm pavilion, she stared at Liao Yuansi who followed, "Brother was arrested by the Ministry of Criminal Justice that day, did you plan it?"

Liao Yuansi said, "Yes."

Wang Caidan said angrily, "You don't hide it! It's in vain that I treat you as a gentleman, but you act so disgusting!"

Liao Yuansi looked at her indifferently, "The emperor is determined to put the Wang family to death, what is lacking is real evidence. Even if I don't do it, someone else will do it."

"Sophistry! If someone else does it, how can the eldest brother trust him!" Wang Caidan reached out and grabbed Liao Yuansi's skirt, staring at him and said, "Just watch, I will definitely make you pay the price. You Liao Yuansi How did you climb up, I will let you fall down!"

Liao Yuansi looked down at the slender hand in front of him, which was delicate and white. He smiled lowly, "It's the first time the Princess is so close to me."

Wang Caidan let go of his hand suddenly, and wiped his hand vigorously with a handkerchief, as if it was stained with something dirty.

Liao Yuansi looked at her disgusted look, and the smile in his eyes cooled down, "The princess let the Liao family fall down, the princess knows that the Liao family has already fallen heavily. Last year, I helped you embarrass the king of Jin, and I was deprived of fame." In the examination, he missed the number one scholar, and the Liao family also lost a chance to advance to the next level. My grandfather was originally Taichang Shaoqing, a fourth-rank official, and was about to have a chance to be promoted to Taichangqing, but he saved me to save me After being released from prison, I asked myself to resign and return to my hometown. The Liao family lost its prosperity in an instant."

He smiled, "Even so, I never held grudges against you. I was willing to be a teacher in Zhen Guogong's mansion, just hoping to soften your heart one day. It's a pity that the beauty is so hard-hearted that she never even looked at me. Now The overthrow of Duke Zhen is inevitable, you may have the queen mother to save your life, but I will be the one you abandon. If so, why can't I be more selfish and save the Liao family first?"

Wang Caidan was speechless for a while.

The Liao family has lost the protection of the official position of Taifu Shaoqing in the past year, and has become more and more withered. She knows something about it.It's just that Liao Yuansi was always willing, and she didn't think too much about it here.

But I heard Liao Yuansi ask, "But I don't know how the county chief made Liao fall from the high platform?"
