Early the next morning, the sky was clear and snowy, and the sun slowly showed half of its face from behind the clouds.

Yuyang has always been cloudy and haze recently, and the sun has not been out for several days.

The people in the city were happy for the long-lost winter weather, and started their busy and ordinary day as usual. Little did they know that the young prince who had always been respected by them had returned to the city in the middle of the night in the snow.

It is even more impossible to imagine what the prince will be greeted by after a long lonely night.

The sun was rising, and when it was almost time, a black smoke suddenly rose from the top of Yushan Mountain in the northwest direction outside the city.

The black smoke was just like a group of pillars at first, but soon, it turned into a huge billowing smoke, the smoke rising into the sky, almost covering the entire mountain, and the fire was faintly visible in the middle.

Passers-by on the city road were the first to see it. They stopped in amazement and looked out into the distance.

Then, more people knew about it, and they came out of the house to watch and discuss. Some people climbed the millstone, some climbed the roof, and some good people went out of the city with friends and went to Yushan to see what happened.

Everyone knows that there is a great witch temple on the top of Yushan Mountain.

The witch is very famous. On weekdays, in addition to taking good and bad luck for the person you ask for, you can also eliminate disasters and illnesses, set up tents to recruit gods, and even communicate with the dead, calling for wind and rain.

Although no one has seen the great witch call the wind and call the rain with their own eyes. But that's just because sincerity is not enough to summon Thunder Goddess and Mother Thunder, it's not that the great witch is ineffective.

In addition, the people in the city also rumored that the great witch could use sorcery words to curse people secretly.

Moreover, the most mysterious thing is that Mrs. Zhu, the mistress of the Wei residence, also believed in great witches. She was often seen in and out of the temple of witches.

Therefore, ordinary people all have a kind of adoration with a sense of fear and fear towards the great witch of Yushan.

I never imagined that in the early morning, such a strong blaze of fire erupted from the top of the Yushan Mountain where the Witch Temple was located.

By noon, the news had spread.

Junhou returned to the city last night. Early this morning, he brought people up to Yushan, and personally set the fire to burn down the gorgeous Witch Temple with three front and rear temples.

…

Wei Shao stood on the open space on the top of Yushan Mountain, his eyes were gloomy as his eyes reflected the huge blazing fire on the opposite side.

At this moment, the resentment that was reverberating in his chest, even the blood boiled, even if ten more fires like this were burned, it would not be enough to vent.

The mountain wind is whistling, in such a cold weather, Yuyang Ling is by the side, and the face is gradually dried up by the scorching heat that the fire rushes towards, making it uncomfortable.

But he didn't dare to take a step back.

The anger of the princes can already be described by leaving. He also felt it deeply.

The roof of the temple finally collapsed.

There was a loud bang, and after the firelight was briefly suppressed, it was like a flame dragon that broke free from its shackles, wrapped in countless sparks of foam, and charged up again.

Yuyang Ling saw that Jun Hou finally turned around, strode down the mountain, rubbed his dry and sore face, and hurriedly followed.

…

Zhu Shi has been having nightmares almost every day.

Even if she is awake, as soon as she closes her eyes, she seems to be deeply entangled by the strong resentment from Jiang Li, her heart skipping a beat, like a nightmare.

On the night of the incident, she kept asking to bring Jiang Li, so that she could confront the evil woman who dared to frame her.

She has believed in Jiang Li for many years and relied heavily on everything. There was even a kindness to her in the beginning.

She still remembers it clearly. Thirty years ago, at that time, she was only the daughter of the Duyou family in Zhuo County. Jiang Li was a few years older than her, in her twenties, with a three-year-old son who was a widow. Doing odd jobs at Zhu's house.

One day, the Zhu family had a murder case. Jiang Ni used scissors and accidentally stabbed to death a servant who was trying to take her by force.

Zhu's parents wanted her to be sent to office. Jiang Li ran to beg the Zhu family. Zhu Shi felt that she was pitiful and softened. He stopped his parents and brought her to his side.

Since then, Jiang Yu has been grateful to Zhu Shi and bowed her head. Afterwards, the Zhu family married into the Wei family by chance, and brought Jiang Li, who had always been favored by her, over. Over the years, Jiang Li has been loyal and devoted to her, and Zhu Shi completely trusted her, almost to the point of obedience.

She couldn't imagine how, how could Jiang Li, a vicious woman, be so wicked, and finally frame her in such a way!

Under her hissing and demanding confrontation, Jiang Li was finally sent to her.

As soon as Zhu Shi saw that familiar face, she was so angry that she couldn't contain herself, slapped her fiercely, tore her hair, and cursed with the most vicious words she could think of. In the end, her palms were numb, and she was about to faint. When she sat there panting heavily, Jiang Li, who was always silent, suddenly showed a smile on her face that she couldn't understand.

She leaned over, put it in Zhu Shi's ear, and said, "Madam, do you still remember my poor son twenty years ago, how did he die?"

Jiang Li used to have a son. But Zhu Shi had long since forgotten. Suddenly hearing Jiang Li mention it in her ear, she was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered, vaguely, remembering that the boy who seemed to be a sign, who was born like a girl, was very beautiful.

Zhu Shi fixedly looked at Jiang Li in front of her.

There was a smile on her bruised face, but her eyes were full of resentment. Completely unfamiliar look.

Zhu Shi felt as if she no longer recognized her.

"Madam, you were already the wife of the Wei family at that time. Your status was noble. One day your brother drank alcohol and he forcibly took my son away. He was only thirteen years old! When I saw him, He had blood all over his lower body! Wet blood, it kept flowing. My son was lying on the bed, dying. He called my mother, told me he was in pain, and begged me to save his life. But the blood didn't I couldn't stop it. Lang Zhong couldn't save him, so he left him and went away! I just watched him struggling in bed for three days, and finally died right under my nose."

"How did you do it, ma'am? You must have forgotten it?"

Jiang Yan's voice continued to drift in Zhu Shi's ears.

"I told you. You were afraid that things would come out and hurt your face, as if nothing had happened, so you suppressed the matter. You sent your brother away and let him continue to live happily. You gave me silk gold and ordered I can't speak out. There's nothing I can do about it, I just endure it."

"But I hate it in my heart. My son, he was only thirteen years old when he died! Madam, because you lost your son, you hated Qiao Nv to the core. My son, isn't he the flesh that fell from my body? already?"

"Madam, now you understand, why did I treat you like this? You can justify yourself by saying what I just told you. But what can you do if you defend yourself? Madam Xu almost died by your hand. , Even if you continue to live in this life, in front of your son, you are nothing but a mother without dignity!

Zhu Shi fainted at that time. When she woke up, she heard the news that Jiang Li had committed suicide in front of her. Only a pool of dark purple blood was left on the ground.

The servant girl who guarded her privately said that Jiang Li was forced to commit suicide by her wife.

It's been so many days since it happened, and the ground has been cleaned. The pool of blood seems to have been eaten into the ground, and it still looks so shocking.

Zhu used to use illness as an excuse to keep his son by his side.

Now she is really sick. She also finally waited for her son's return.

It snowed heavily last night, and it was sunny this morning. At noon, when she was alone in the room in a daze, she heard the sound of heavy footsteps outside.

It was the footsteps of her son Wei Shao. She could recognize it as soon as she heard it.

He is finally home! And his mother was framed and wronged so much when he left home!

The strength that had been lost in the body seemed to be slowly injected back. Zhu Shi struggled to stand up and wanted to go out to greet him. After only taking two steps, the door slammed, almost knocked open by a violent force.

Zhu Shi saw the figure of her son Wei Shao and appeared at the door.

He didn't come in, but stood outside the threshold, looking at her with cold and unfamiliar eyes.

Zhu Shi was slightly startled, and looked at her son for a moment, her lips trembled slowly, and she said in a trembling voice, "Shao'er...you're back...don't believe what they said! I was framed by Jiang Li! She hates me! She was bribed, and that's why she framed me! These days, I've been thinking about it, and there is only Qiao Nv... After Qiao Nv enters the door, I want you to accept Chuyu. must hate me..."

Wei Shao's eye muscles twitched slightly, and he took a step back. The two were pushed in and fell to the ground.

One is Yushan Dawu, and the other is Zheng Shu. Both of them were disheveled and looked extremely embarrassed.

"Auntie save me!" Zheng Shu got up, hugged Zhu Shi's legs with both hands, and kept crying.

Zhu Shi was surprised, looked up at Wei Shao, and said in a trembling voice, "Shao'er... What are you doing?"

Wei Shao said coldly, "Listen to yourself, how on earth did your good niece lie to you in the past!"

The great witch knelt on the ground, trembling, and kept kowtowing: "Madam, you don't know anything, it was Zheng Shu who took the gold and silk as a gift in secret, asking me to come to you and say that she is your noble person, then I will treat you. That's what you say! In order to fulfill the test, when you got sick later, she also took the medicine from me and put it into your meal at first. When the medicine started to take effect, it stopped, and you slowly got better. Madam Being kept in the dark, believing it to be true..."

Zheng Shu cried bitterly: "My aunt spared me! It's just that I was confused at the beginning... In the following years, I have devoted my heart to my aunt. Others don't know it, and my aunt should know..."

Zhu Shi's eyes were wide open, and she pointed at Zheng Shu, trembling non-stop, suddenly screamed, her eyes turned white, and she fainted.

…

Zhu Shi woke up leisurely again and found himself lying on the bed.

Wei Shao turned his back to her, facing the window, his back was motionless, like a stone statue.

Zhu Shi wanted to call, but he didn't dare to call him.

Wei Shao turned around and walked slowly in front of her, looking down at her.

"Shao'er..." Zhu shi's eyes warmed, "I know I used to be confused... so that I was used by others and almost made a big mistake... It's just that your grandmother really didn't poison me... No matter how bold I am, I would not dare to You should know what to do with her..."

Wei Shao stared at Zhu Shi, and a thick shadow passed through his eyes.

"Mother, you may not dare to do anything to your grandmother, but you do it to my wife. If it were someone else, I would not allow her to survive. You are my mother, and I can't do anything to you. But in the future, I will Tell your mother, if you dare to have bad thoughts about her again, don't blame it for being a son without filial piety."

Wei Shao walked away quickly.
