Chapter 204: Who can deliver faster, you or I?
In the room of Zizhuxuan.
After Yunshu and Yunjin left, Tang Wenle looked at Tang and said pitifully, "Aunt, could you please help me persuade my mother?
"Help with what?" Tang pretended to be confused.
In fact, she could understand her second sister-in-law to some extent.
The three children of her eldest brother married better girls than the last, and the third and fifth children married county ladies. Now if the fourth child were to marry a maid, her second sister-in-law would certainly not agree.
If this happened to her, she probably wouldn't agree.
After all, if there are some things that even she can't do, how can she persuade others?
Seeing that Tang was feigning confusion, Tang Wenle knew that his aunt probably wouldn't speak well of him. However, he was completely at his wit's end, so he shamelessly said, "Could you please persuade my mother to agree to my marriage with Yunshu?"
Hearing this, Tang said with embarrassment, "Have you told your grandmother about this?"
"I did." Tang Wenle looked frustrated, "But my grandmother said that my mother has the final say on my marriage, and she doesn't have the final say."
Tang understood that her second brother was gone now, and her mother now followed her second sister-in-law's opinion in everything. Even though her mother sometimes did not agree with her second sister-in-law's approach, as long as it was not a matter of principle, she would listen to her second sister-in-law. Her purpose was not to let her second sister-in-law feel that she was alone and bullied without her husband, so she always indulged her second sister-in-law.
But even if I tell her, her sister-in-law may not listen.
Gu Lingyue saw that her mother was in a difficult situation, and she understood that her mother must be afraid that her second aunt would be wronged if she told her.
In order to get her second aunt's consent, Yun Shu had to have a good identity.
Thinking of this, before Tang Shi could say anything, Gu Lingyue said, "Fourth brother, even if my mother goes to talk to her, there's no guarantee that my second aunt will agree."
Tang nodded in agreement.
"What should we do then?" Tang Wenle asked with a sad face.
Gu Lingyue thought for a moment and asked, "Are you sure Yunshu will agree to marry you if my second aunt agrees?"
Tang Wenle thought about what Yunshu said. Even if your wife has no relationship with others, does that mean she has no relationship with your mother? Does your mother agree with you marrying a maid? You should first ask Mrs. Tang Er's opinion.
Yun Shu must have meant that she agreed when she said this, otherwise she wouldn't have said that.
So, he nodded towards Gu Lingyue and said with certainty: "She agreed."
"Okay, then I'll find a way to solve your problem." Gu Lingyue said.
"Really?" Tang Wenle almost jumped up with joy. Tang Wenqi quickly held him back and rolled his eyes at him, "Be careful not to bump into Yue'er."
Tang Wenle scratched his head embarrassedly and quickly expressed his gratitude to Gu Lingyue.
"Yue'er, thank you. You have helped Fourth Brother a lot."
"Don't be too happy too soon. I just said I would try to find a way. We don't know if it will work or not." Gu Lingyue gave him a heads-up in advance so that he could be mentally prepared in case it didn't work.
"I know. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, Fourth Brother still thanks you."
At the same time, after Dong Jinyu and Shen Anran were beaten to death with sticks, Long Shang had their bodies sent back to their respective homes.
Grand Tutor Dong and General Shen Zhiyuan were so angry that they went to the palace to accuse Long Shang of taking human life.
Long Shang threw the oil-paper bag that Gu Lingyue had the secret guard send into Shen Anran's room in front of Taifu Dong and General Fuguo, and also brought Dong Jinyu's maid Mingxia and Shen Anran's maid Xiaohong in front of them.
Seeing that their masters were beaten to death by Prince Jing, the two maids dared not lie anymore and told everything Dong Jinyu and Shen Anran had asked them to do.
Emperor Tianqi was furious when he heard this and condemned Taifu Dong and Shen Zhiyuan for their poor education of their descendants. He had already ordered Prince Jing to allow them to return to Prince Jing's Mansion, but they still dared to have evil ideas and harm the royal descendants. How outrageous!
Master Dong and Shen Zhiyuan had never expected that Long Shang would beat their granddaughter to death with sticks, but still spared the maids beside them, and the two maids even admitted the crimes of themselves and their master.
Originally, they wanted to say that it was Long Shang who instigated them, but at this time, Emperor Tianqi was obviously favoring Prince Jing, and now the man was dead. Even if they continued to bite Prince Jing, it would be counterproductive and would implicate their families. So no matter how angry they were, they had to endure it and apologize to Emperor Tianqi.
"Now that you are dead, I will not punish you today in consideration of your hard work and contributions. I hope you will learn from this lesson, discipline your descendants, and not let me down."
"Thank you for your majesty's grace. We will obey your command."
After leaving the palace, Dong Taifu and Shen Zhiyuan both looked very unhappy. They got on their own carriages and headed towards their respective residences.
At this time, Emperor Tianqi looked at Long Shang who was standing there and said unhappily: "I just asked you to find a reasonable reason to send them out of the palace, I didn't ask you to kill them.
You beat them to death, after all, they were two lives!"
Long Shang said calmly, "Although Yue'er was the one who set up the trap, it was also because of their bad intentions. Besides, if they came back, wouldn't it be to commit suicide? Otherwise, why would they come back after I let them go?"
"You..." Emperor Tianqi didn't know what to say.
Long Shang snorted coldly, "If you send women to Prince Jing's Mansion again in the future, I will kill one for each one you send. Let's see who can send them faster or I can kill them faster. I don't believe those women are not afraid of death."
"You...evil creature!" Emperor Tianqi was very angry, but he could do nothing about his son. He couldn't really kill his son just because of a few women, right?
I had no choice but to wave him off.
When Long Shang just returned to the gate of the palace, before he could get off the carriage, another carriage also stopped at the gate of the palace.
"Master." Yun Hao called out softly, "This is the carriage of the Emperor of Western Shu."
Long Shang didn't expect them to come so soon. He thought they would not come for a few days.
When Long Shang got off the carriage, he heard Zhan Qinyi's voice coming from Kou Shijun's carriage.
"What are you standing there for? Why don't you ask someone to take down the door sill so our carriage can enter?"
The guards at the gate heard a woman's voice coming from the carriage, and heard unreasonable demands. They were all puzzled and asked: Who is this woman in the carriage? How dare she speak to their master like this?
Just when they were puzzled, Long Shang frowned, then waved his hand, signaling the guards at the door to lift the threshold.
Only after Zhan Qinyi's carriage entered the palace did Long Shang walk into the palace.
At this time, Wang An rushed over after hearing the news. Long Shang asked him to find a courtyard for Zhan Qinyi and Kou Shijun to live in respectively, and he walked towards Zizhuxuan where he lived.
