After losing her husband, she turned the little villain of the Hou family into a big boss

Chen Tairan was sitting in the carriage, and his assistant was hurriedly wiping his wound, but the wound was too deep, and blood would flow out immediately after wiping it.Chen Tairan was so painful that he was sweating all over. At this moment, he really regretted it. He should not have stopped Ding Guogong from speaking.

Someone told him that although Duke Dingguo was powerful, he was very kind and reasonable.After he took control of Shangjing City, he only took action against the first deposed emperor and did not embarrass others, which is a good illustration.It was after hearing such words that he had the courage to approach Duke Dingguo today.

The words "pawn" appeared in his mind again, and he realized that he was really being used.

The carriage arrived at Chen's mansion soon, and he was carried into the mansion by his servants.When the Chen family heard that he was beaten, they all hurried over to see him. His yard was noisy for a while.After the doctor finished bandaging him, the wound was no longer so painful and his brain resumed functioning.

After sending the others away, he left Mrs. Chen behind and asked, "How do you feel about meeting Mrs. Dingguo today?"

As an old couple, Mrs. Chen was still very worried about him. She did not answer his question, but said: "Master, how are you? Duke Dingguo is too cruel."

Chen Tairan's brows furrowed into knots, "I'm fine. I'll just take care of you. Tell me what Mrs. Dingguo said."

Mrs. Chen had a look of confusion on her face, "I said in a vague way that Sister Rui will obey County Master Kangle when she enters the palace in the future, but Mrs. Dingguo didn't take my words at all and directly changed the subject."

Chen Tairan leaned on the couch, frowned and thought for a long time, and then said: "Did Duke Dingguo not want to marry his daughter to the emperor at all? I was whipped by him today because I mentioned her daughter to the emperor. .”

"No way?" Mrs. Chen said: "Dingguo Gong deposed the late emperor, he is not the emperor, and he does not want his daughter to be the queen. What does he want?"

"He and the Xianfei Emperor will either die or live together. His purpose is probably to save his life." Although Chen Tairan could not understand Xiao Huai's approach, he felt that this was the only reason that made sense.

"This..." Mrs. Chen also couldn't understand. If she didn't care about the great future in front of her, could Duke Dingguo be a fool?

Chen Tairan closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "It seems that the emperor really doesn't want to draft."

"What about our sister Rui? She can't afford to wait!"

Mrs. Chen was still struggling with the fact that her daughter could not enter the palace, but Chen Tairan looked at her dissatisfied and said, "Who told you to let Sister Rui enter the palace?"

Mrs. Chen was stunned for a moment, "No one told me! Sister Rui is about the same age as the emperor. We have met several times. Our concubine and the empress dowager have some affection. If the emperor is drafting, sister Rui My son will definitely be able to enter the palace!"

Seeing that she still didn't understand that she was being used, Chen Tairan felt angry and shouted, "Where did you hear these words? Who told you?"

Mrs. Chen was flustered, thought for a while and said: "At a banquet a few days ago, several ladies talked about the emperor's talent show. I...I felt that if there was a talent show, our sister Rui would definitely be selected."

They are an old couple, and Chen Tairan still knows her very well. From the look on her face, you can tell that she is not completely telling the truth.He sat up straight, stared at Mrs. Chen and said, "You still can't figure it out? We are being used."

"This..." Mrs. Chen was confused. She really didn't feel that she was being used. She really felt that her daughter should enter the palace and become the empress.

Seeing that she still didn't understand, Chen Tairan became even more angry.He was annoyed with Mrs. Chen and himself. As soon as Mrs. Chen told him that his daughter would enter the palace and become a queen, he was moved.

Clenching his fists tightly, he asked: "Besides those ladies talking about the draft, who else said anything to you?"

Mrs. Chen thought for a moment and then said, "She is the third daughter-in-law of my aunt's family."

Chen Tairan frowned and wondered who this person was. After a while, he said, "She is from the Zhao family."

"Yes, she is the legitimate daughter of Mr. Zhao's cousin in the cabinet." Mrs. Chen said.

Chen Tairan clenched his fists and breathed heavily. Mr. Zhao, the cabinet minister, was punished by the emperor, but he still did not give up.They were also stupid and were taken advantage of by him.

"This...is...she really wants to harm us?" Mrs. Chen did not feel that she was being used, because this was what she was thinking in her heart.

Chen Tairan glared at her fiercely, and was about to say something reprimanding when there was a knock on the door, followed by the somewhat panicked voice of the butler, "Master, the imperial edict has come from the palace."

It's no wonder that the housekeeper was flustered. Chen Tairan was beaten by Duke Dingguo at the gate of the palace. When the imperial edict came at this time, thinking about it, he knew it was not a good thing.

Chen Tairan and Mrs. Chen in the room were also panicked. They quickly got up and walked out. They also had a hunch that this imperial edict was definitely not a good thing.

The family hurriedly walked to the hall, where a gentleman was sitting there drinking tea.When he saw that the Chen family had arrived, he stood up and said, "Master Chen, please take the order."

Chen Tairan quickly knelt down, and the rest of the Chen family also knelt behind him.The eunuch opened the imperial edict and began to read it. The general meaning of the edict was that Chen Tairan would be fined for one year regardless of his superiority or inferiority.

"Thank you Lord Ron."

Chen Tairan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the fine was only one year's salary. Then he wiped his sweat and sent the eunuch to the door of the house. Of course, he gave him a lot of money.The eunuch returned to the palace with the purse containing the banknotes, and then went to the imperial study room to reply.

Li Jingyi heard that the imperial edict had been passed down and waved him out.Then he told the eunuch Ye Deben: "Check Chen Tairan."

"Yes."

Ye Deben responded and quickly went out to make arrangements, while giving Chen Tairan some wax.As long as someone is an official in the government, he will definitely find out something after investigation, not to mention that Chen Tairan is not an upright and honest official.

Penalizing him with a year's salary is just because the emperor has no leverage against him for the time being, but he can't swallow it, so he just finds an excuse to punish him. The big head is behind him.And he believed that Duke Dingguo and his wife would never let him go.

Some people just can't live a peaceful life and insist on seeking death themselves.

Ye Deben guessed right. Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai were talking about the Chen family.Hearing that Xiao Huai whipped Chen Tairan, Tang Shuyi felt happy.

Mrs. Chen came to her today and said those nonsense words, and she was also angry.But Mrs. Chen didn't say it clearly. She also had to take Yuzhu's reputation into consideration, so she didn't scold her on the spot.

As for the draft, she and Xiao Huai actually didn't intend to take care of it, leaving everything to Li Jingyi to handle.But what they didn't expect was that a fool would come up to them and say something about what they had and what they didn't.They can't ignore this, otherwise some people really think that anyone in their Dingguo Palace can step on it.
