first princess

Chapter 199
Brother Hao and Shangguan were injured, and everyone went to visit, but Brother Hao was introverted and didn't like strangers. Qiao Hui and the others just put down the presents, talked with Shangguan for a while, and then left.Zhuge Yu and King Anjun went to the Xianglan Courtyard when they got the news immediately. They sat in the room for about two quarters of an hour and then went back to the courtyard.As soon as he entered the room, Zhuge Yu hugged Shui Linglong from behind: "Shangguan Qian wants to live in, do you agree?"

Thinking of the truth that was revealed one after another, Shui Linglong's heart trembled slightly: "Zhuge Yu, how do you feel about your mother?"

Zhuge Yu put his chin against his shoulder, kissed her snowy neck as beautiful as a white swan, and said, "To be honest, I don't feel it." I don't know if he is too withdrawn, or if he has been separated for too many years and his relationship has faded, Shangguan always works hard Get close to him, such as wiping his hands, face, and feeding him water, but he is not used to it!
Shui Linglong bit her lip, turned around in his arms, and looked at him steadfastly. She spent the whole afternoon making such a decision. She had thought about the worst consequences in advance, and she should blurt it out, but when she When facing a face so similar to Shangguan Qian's, the sentence that had been typed out countless times suddenly stuck in his throat.What if he doesn't believe it?What if he believed her but persuaded her to stop?
"In a daze again, you deserve to be called an idiot!" Zhuge Yu kissed the corner of her mouth and said with a smile.

Shui Linglong's eyes flickered, and after a while, she said solemnly: "Zhuge Yu, I have something to tell you."

The next day, Zhuge Yu left angrily.Shui Linglong smashed the Diexi narcissus jade on Duobaoge, Zhi Fan picked up the fragments, and asked cautiously: "Miss, you... have you quarreled with Shizi?" Hei walked out of the room with a sullen face. She greeted the elder son and asked him what breakfast he had, but the elder ignored him and strode out of the yard. This was the first time she had seen the elder son put on such a stinky face.

Shui Linglong said angrily: "He's kissing his mother! What are you doing with me? What are you doing with the three of us, mother and son? If he has the ability, don't come back!"

That night, Zhuge Yu did not come back.Another day later, it was reported that Zhuge Yu had asked for his order to go on a business trip to tour the dam project in the south.After Shui Linglong greeted the old lady, when she heard the news at the gate of the yard, she immediately burst into tears, making all the people in the yard tremble, for fear that Shui Linglong would get angry and take it out on them.Within a few days, various speculations spread in the mansion.

"What's the matter with the concubine? It's not that the master has never been on a business trip, remember last year? The master also visited the south once."

"Oh, don't mention last year. Last year, the son visited the south, and what happened? Do you remember?"

"what?"

"Bai Fumei! It is said that she has a skin-to-skin relationship with the eldest son!"

"Oh! That's right! Could it be... Shizi is going to Jiangnan to find her again?"

"I don't know if it's really looking for Bai Fumei, but it's true that the prince wants to anger the concubine! Otherwise, he would not take the initiative to ask for orders to go to Jiangnan. He knows that the concubine is very jealous of that place! Yesterday, the Defu family came. Do you know what the purpose of our yard is? Madam wants to bring my cousin to live in! But the concubine doesn't like it! I reckon, the master and the concubine are arguing about this!"

"Ah? Why?"

"Have you observed carefully? My son doesn't look like a concubine, but he looks like his wife! If I'm right, madam is our son's biological mother! This birth mother and daughter-in-law are at odds. Of course, my son It's helping the birth mother!"

...

The news of Shui Linglong's estrangement with Zhuge Yu spread like waves in the mansion, and the speculation that Shangguan was Zhuge Yu's biological mother also spread like wildfire.No one raised it to the bright side and said it, but the eyes they saw Shangguan were very different.Shangguan is in a good mood, and his injury is getting better day by day.

In order to welcome the arrival of Shangguan and Brother Hao, Shui Linglong asked people to renovate the east main room according to the blueprint she drew, and separated it with a pear cabinet in the middle, with Shangguan's bedroom on one side and Brother Hao's bedroom on the other. .At the end of August, the Wisteria Courtyard was ready, Shangguan and Brother Hao had recovered from their injuries, and Shui Linglong welcomed them in personally.But the sharp-eyed servants can easily find out that the concubine Shizi looks uglier when she smiles than when she cries.

Dinner is rich: squab in Western juice, pipa shrimp, roasted chicken with chestnut, sesame fish ball, braised duck with tea tree mushroom in dry pot, braised tendon with mushroom, cattail vegetable in milk soup, cold cucumber, stir-fried lotus root slices, and a serving of garlic crucian carp soup And a corn and mushroom pork ribs soup, and a cup of papaya pork knuckle soup specially stewed for Shui Linglong.

Shangguan pulled Brother Hao to sit down, and said with a smile: "You have a heart." Looking at the timid Brother Hao, "Thank you Jinjin! Jinjin ordered the kitchen to cook all your favorite dishes!"

Brother Hao lowered his head and remained silent, but he could see that he was in a good mood.Shui Linglong stood up, served the soup to Shangguan and Brother Hao herself, and said with a smile: "Drink while it's hot."

Shangguan smiled slightly: "Well, you sit down and eat too! We are a family, so you don't have to be limited by these vain rituals."

Shui Linglong showed a flattered expression: "Yes, thank you, mother."

Shangguan was not in a hurry to eat, she only ate after watching Shui Linglong eat, during the dinner, she seemed to love Brother Hao very much, she always let Brother Hao eat first, and then eat by herself.Shui Linglong raised her eyebrows imperceptibly!
After dinner, Brother Hao ran to look for Xiao Qiuyan. There was a whole room full of people, including Mother Zhong, Ye Mao, Zhi Fan and Qiu Sanniang.Shangguan glanced at him from the corner of his eye, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu is on a business trip, I will sleep in your room tonight, and I will take it for you when my sister wakes up. In the past, Xiaoyu helped you, but now that Xiaoyu is gone, you are alone afraid It's too busy."

Shui Linglong gave a pale smile: "Brother Hao just moved into the wisteria courtyard, I'm afraid I'm not used to it, why don't mothers wait for Brother Hao to adapt to the new environment, and then help me take care of my sister. Besides, if mother only cares about my sister and neglects Brother Hao, my father should be annoyed at me for occupying you and putting Brother Hao on the order. Anyway, I take it at night, and it's the same with mother during the day!"

Shangguan's mouth twitched, and he said with a bright smile: "It's hard for you to think about brother Hao so much. I always said that as an elder brother, he should let his younger brother and younger sister let him go, but now his younger brother and younger sister let him go!"

Shui Linglong echoed: "Brother Hao has suffered a lot along the way, everyone should care about him, although it can't make up for the loss of his parents, but a little more warmth is good, I hope he can get out of the shadow in his heart this morning. "

Shangguan's eyes flashed: "Yeah, compared to brother and sister, he is really... so unfortunate!"

Shui Linglong remained silent, as if she was very sad!Shangguan paused, and said with a smile: "However, he has finally come to the end of his hardships. Your father said a few days ago that Brother Hao will be assigned to you and Xiaoyu. From now on, Xiaoyu and you will be his parents."

Shui Linglong's black eyebrows raised, and she said in astonishment: "Father...want Brother Hao to be adopted under the name of my husband and me? Become... the elder brother of my brother and sister?"

Shangguan smiled and said: "Yes! When I heard the news, I was so happy! This child has been suffering for four years, and finally has roots, and finally has parents like other children!"

Shui Linglong remained silent!
"I just mentioned it a little bit, and the old man has to nod for details." Shangguan looked at her silent look, and put away his smile: "You...are you unhappy?"

Who would be happy when something like this happened?Brother Hao is his little nephew, and she will take care of her in every possible way, but if he becomes her son, the feeling will be very different.Brother Hao is the eldest son of her and Zhuge Yu, so why did Brother Hao snatch his eldest son status as soon as he came?It's not fair.Shui Linglong said sourly: "Why are you unhappy? Ling'er's child is Zhuge Yu's and mine's child, and I will treat him as my own."

Shangguan picked up the teacup and covered the cold curve of his lips.

For several days in a row, Shangguan strictly abided by his duties, slept with Brother Hao at night, helped Shui Linglong take care of her sister during the day, and never made any excessive demands.Everything is so peaceful that Shui Linglong almost thinks that she treats the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Maybe Shangguan just wants to take Brother Hao to cultivate a relationship with her, whether she accepts it or not. The prince saw Brother Hao kiss her. Hou, more or less would think that they hit it off, so Brother Hao would logically become the eldest son of her and Zhuge Yu, and once he became the eldest son, he would have a chance to compete with Brother Hao for the heir to the palace!So, Shangguan's plan is such a wishful thinking, isn't it?

Just when Shui Linglong thought that Shangguan really wanted to seek a bright future for Brother Hao, Guo Yan finally sent a letter from Feige, and at almost the same moment, a shocking news shocked the whole palace: Hao Brother is poisoned!

Behind the pear blossom cabinet in the east main room, Brother Hao was lying on the bed with a purple complexion. Doctor Hu stripped him of his clothes and rescued him with acupuncture and moxibustion.

In Shui Linglong's room, Zhuge Liuyun sat on the main seat with a gloomy face, Leng Youru sat beside him expressionlessly, and Zhen Shi, who had just recovered from his injuries, took King An and Qiao Hui to sit on the chair on the left , on the opposite side was the Shangguan family who was about to cry, and in the center of the room stood Shui Linglong who was on the top of the mountain collapsed and did not change her face.

Shangguan beat his chest and stamped his feet, and burst into tears: "My poor brother Hao...he is still so young, who would be so mad that he can do it?"

Brother Hao was infected with arsenic poison, and the poison was hidden under the cribs of his brother and sister. It seemed self-evident who the murderer was.Everyone looked at Shui Linglong in unison!Zhen touched her still sore buttocks, smiled gloatingly, and plotted against her, you deserved to have something to do with you one day!Actually hit the bad idea on brother Hao's head, it's really Tai Sui who broke ground on his head, he is not afraid of death!Leng Youru's cold eyes swept across Shui Linglong's face that didn't show any signs of panic, and she remained silent!

Zhuge Liuyun said in a deep voice: "If you torture everyone in the house one by one, you will definitely find out who bought the arsenic and put arsenic in Brother Hao's food."

In this way, Mama Zhong, Ye Mao, and Zhi Fan could not be spared. The definition of torture could not be more clear than Shui Linglong, Ye Mao might be able to resist, and Mama Zhong and Zhi Fan would definitely die on the way to execution.Shui Linglong clasped her plain hand, and said in a normal tone: "No more torture! I know who bought the arsenic, and I know who put the poison in brother Hao's food!"

The crowd held their breath, waiting for her to point out what she called the real culprit.Shui Linglong's sharp eyes wandered past the people in the room, and finally fell on Shangguan's face full of tears, and said word by word: "It's you!"

Everyone was shocked, Shangguan?Can't!How could the Shangguan family go so far as to poison their own grandchildren?

Shangguan was taken aback for a moment, and then burst into tears with a "wow": "Linglong...Linglong, how could you wrong me so much? Brother Hao is my grandson, how could I harm him? The poison is in your house I found out...I didn't doubt you at all, but you doubted me first...It's unreasonable..."

Shui Linglong couldn't bear her pitiful look the most: "Anyway, the poison is hidden in my room, and there are only a few people who can come and go freely in the room. They keep saying that they don't doubt me, but they can hide the poison. It's either me or you under the crib, you insisted that you were wronged, didn't you mean to doubt me by accident?"

Shangguan said abruptly: "Linglong, I was wrong, I shouldn't have misunderstood you by saying that! The prince actually just mentioned it, there is no way to tell! Don't hate brother Hao because of this! Brother Hao I won’t compete with Brother Hong for anything! It’s a big deal, it won’t be included in the genealogy, and it won’t be in your name! Don’t hate him..."

With that said, how can everyone not understand?I dare say that the prince moved the idea of ​​making Brother Hao the son of Shui Linglong and Zhuge Yu. In this way, Brother Hao will be the eldest son, the future heir of the palace... Hehe, it's hard to say.

Zhuge Liuyun had a headache, he did have such an idea at the beginning, but he had to ask the old man for details, did Linglong really kill Brother Hao for Brother Hong's sake?
Shui Linglong just wanted to laugh, what is this woman's background, and her acting skills are so good?No wonder she and her son and daughter have not been attacked for so many days. It turned out that they aimed at Brother Hao and used him as a raft to frame her!Once she is convicted of the crime, at least she will be kicked out of the mansion, and at worst, she will be given the death penalty of Kashgar. This move is really vicious!

One thought after another flashed through Shui Linglong's mind, and she decided not to argue with her on this topic for the time being, but changed the subject: "You know exactly who is the real culprit who killed brother Hao! You have done so much Evil, what's the big deal if there is one more thing?"

Everyone's attention was successfully diverted, and they all looked at Shangguan again!Shangguan's heart skipped a beat, with an ominous premonition, but he said righteously: "Evil thing? I don't understand what you are talking about at all? How long have I been in the mansion? What evil did you do? Linglong, I admit that I was very picky at the beginning, I couldn't understand you, I couldn't understand you, and I couldn't understand my son who was born in October and gave birth to you, but he was a stranger to me, so, I I have run on you, and I have run on my sister! But when I realized that my words and deeds not only failed to restore my son's heart, but also made my son and me more and more cold, I changed! You instigated my son to go against the prince and make the prince Take care of me and don't trouble you! Linglong, touch your conscience, has there ever been such an unfilial daughter-in-law like you?"

As soon as these words came out, many people became quiet. The emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. If Shui Linglong really provoked Zhuge Yu to disobey her parents because of her mother-in-law's gossip, then she is too narrow-minded!

Zhuge Liuyun's face was sullen, and he was speechless for a long time.Shangguan's dislike of sister Yun shouldn't make Zhuge Yu noisy, but Shui Linglong's behavior is really inappropriate.The anger given by the elders has to be endured by the younger generation, or how can people say "a daughter-in-law of 30 years has become a mother-in-law"?
Shui Linglong Youruo Mingyuan's eyes narrowed for a moment, she didn't answer Shangguan's call at all, but continued her previous words, saying in a cold voice: "Okay! It doesn't matter if you don't remember the evil things you did! I'll count them out for you! After the counting, let's talk about who is the murderer who killed Brother Hao!"

It can be regarded as targeting the Shangguan family again!Shangguan was taken aback, why didn't she get involved with this girl?

Zhuge Liuyun frowned: "Linglong!" The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, in front of the second bedroom, is it an honor for her to have such a trouble with her mother-in-law?
At this time, the elder sister woke up Yoyo, and found that her mother was not by her side, sobbing at the top of her throat, but she was too small, and the sound was not half as loud as that of her elder brother.A trace of forbearance flashed in Zhuge Liuyun's eyes, he moved his lips, hold back!Shui Linglong walked to the bedside, quickly changed her diaper and sweaty top, hugged her for a while, and her crying subsided, and she fell asleep again.Shui Linglong asks Zhong's mother to carry her sister into the side room, where it is still a battlefield.But everyone's hearts trembled slightly in her swift and skillful movements. If you ask yourself, Zhen Shi, who has lived for half her life, has never taken care of her children so carefully. Open, smiled and hugged them, she loved them, but she didn't pull them with shit or pee.Leng Youru's eyes moved slightly, and there seemed to be something more in the sight of Shui Linglong.

Shangguan gritted his teeth resentfully, but choked with grievances and said: "My lord, maybe it was wrong for me to go back to Dazhou. I shouldn't have brought Ling'er's child back to cause trouble for you. I know, who does the palace look like?" They all let me in, but none of them accepted me from the bottom of their hearts! Xiaoyu hated me for taking my sister away, and you also blamed me for being ungrateful and ungrateful, my lord. Needless to say, wangfei, the grievances between the two of us cannot be explained clearly in a few words. Zhen Minglan, my cousin is a wife and you are a concubine, you have already disliked our Shangguan family!"

Zhenshi really hated Shangguan Hong, but Shangguan Qian couldn't compete with her, she had never competed against her!

Zhuge Liuyun's eyes darkened, and there was more pity in Shangguan's sight.

Leng Youru seemed to be casually saying: "Yeah, people who shouldn't have come back, what's the purpose?"
