Pampered and fierce wife: Reborn daughter-in-law has a strategy

Xiao Yinchu returned to the Zhenguo General's Mansion. After entering from his own courtyard, he entered the underground secret room through the tunnel.

The secret room was filled with simple and comfortable furniture. There was a blind old man sitting at the tea table. His hair was gray, but he was extremely neat. His cheeks were sunken, and his aging skin hung down, forming a face full of wrinkles and dark eyes. The light made him look like a demon crawling out of hell.

"Father." Xiao Yinchu knelt down on one knee towards the white-haired old man.

Yes, this white-haired old man is Xiang Qingyuan, the former prince who everyone thought was killed because of rebellion.

She is only in her forties or fifties, but she looks older than the eldest princess.

"Did you meet Emperor Chu Hui today?" Xiang Qingyuan said, his voice hoarse and raw as if he had not spoken for a long time.

"Yes."

"How did he react?"

"He... praised that his son looks similar to Uncle Duan."

"Didn't you say anything else?"

Xiao Yinchu hesitated for a moment, thought carefully about everything that happened today, shook his head and said, "No."

"Haha." Xiang Qingyuan chuckled twice, like an old organ groaning hard, "It's already passed the agreed time, why haven't you taken action yet?"

He "looked" at Xiao Yinchu, his expression could not be seen clearly in the dim light, but an inexplicable chill climbed up Xiao Yinchu's back.

"Auntie...didn't I tell you?" Xiao Yinchu said hesitantly.

"I'm asking you!" the old man scolded, and the king's pressure came straight at Xiao Yinchu. Xiao Yinchu's heart trembled, and he knelt on his knees and lowered his head.

"Say!" The swaying lamp oil shone on Xiang Qingyuan's face, and the light and shadow swayed, making it look even more terrifying.

"Because...the plan has changed, so..."

"Is there a change of plan or a change of heart?"

"Father……"

"Hehehehehe..." Xiang Qingyuan's deep laughter sounded, interrupting his words. Xiang Qingyuan laughed as if he was about to die. Xiang Qingyuan's hoarse laughter filled the dark secret room.

"I don't know," he stopped and said in a hoarse voice, "our Xiang family is having an affair."

Without waiting for Xiao Yinchu to speak, Xiang Qingyuan sneered: "If you are determined to get married, you will choose a wife from the family of a hero who has the power to follow the dragon. Don't even think about the daughter of the Li family."

"Father! But General Li is also from our side!" Xiao Yinchu said with a frown.

"Our side?" Xiang Qingyuan sneered, "Being a first-grade general under Lao Shi and marrying Kang Haoyi, you call this, our side?" Xiao Yinchu lowered his head.

But Xiang Qingyuan became more and more excited as he spoke. He patted the tea table and the tea set on the table clattered: "Look at my eyes, look at this poor place! Do you think that because I can't see, I don't realize how bad this place is?" ? I still have hands and feet! I still have a nose! I was born in the palace and grew up in the palace! I eat delicacies from the mountains and seas and wear fine clothes and food! I don’t need to see it to know how shabby this place is! I don’t need to see it! The palace is the prince, and he will also be the emperor in the future! But just because of Xiang Yingjing, a white-eyed wolf, I have lost everything and still stay in this bad place! What a bad place!"

Xiang Qingyuan violently swept the tea set on the table to the ground. The tea set shattered on the hard ground, and the crumbs of the tea cup splashed on Xiao Yinchu's face.

A slight stinging pain came, and Xiao Yinchu did not dare to speak.

After losing his temper, Xiang Qingyuan finally calmed down. He closed his eyes and thought for a moment before saying: "I heard that Li Song only has a daughter? Doesn't his wife still want a son, so she gave it to her daughter for this reason?" Poison? Then send him to the palace and die, so that there will be no way out for him."

Xiao Yinchu said in shock: "Father, no!"

"Why not."

"..." Xiao Yinchu was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, "Li Xinran seems to know what's going to happen in the future. We can still use her for the time being."

Xiang Qingyuan frowned: "What did you say?"

Xiao Yinchu slowly clenched his fists and took a deep breath: "The last time the plan was not implemented, it was indeed because of Li Xinran's objection, but my son was not just because of her objection, but what was revealed in her words. Sure enough, in After Mr. Zhang was assassinated, two-thirds of our people hiding in various places were caught. However, because they did not spread rumors, the lackeys did not really catch the main force, but if we followed the original plan... "

Xiang Qingyuan's face became even more ugly: "Do you suspect that there is a traitor among our people?"

"I don't know," Xiao Yinchu said, "but what is certain is that if we proceed according to the original plan, it will develop as Li Xinran said. Mr. Zhang's death will be in vain, and we will not be able to build momentum, or even..." Xiao Yin Chu sighed deeply and said, "According to what Li Xinran said, in the later period, Emperor Chu Hui will confiscate the general's palace and exterminate the family. Maybe by then, Uncle Duan and I will have died in the battle."

Xiang Qingyuan's face became even more ugly, and he pursed his lips tightly.

The light of the oil lamp swayed in the fine air, and a lantern exploded, awakening Xiang Qingyuan from his meditation.

"When she gets better, I want to see her."

Xiang Qingyuan spoke awkwardly, his voice was hoarse and broken, as if he was so shocked that he didn't know how to speak.

"Father……"

Xiao Yinchu was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xiang Qingyuan with a wave of his hand: "Go out. Next time, I want you to welcome me out in a dignified manner, so we can meet again."

Xiao Yinchu closed his eyes, kowtowed to Xiang Qingyuan, turned around and left.

The moment he left the secret room, Xiao Yinchu turned around and saw Xiang Qingyuan sitting in the shadows, as if the disaster he had suffered more than 30 years ago had pulled him into an endless abyss. From that moment on, he could never come out from there again. .

Before the age of 12, Xiao Yinchu only knew that he was the grandson of the emperor and was responsible for revenge.

On his 12th birthday, the eldest princess led him to the secret room.

The first time he met Xiang Qingyuan, Xiao Yinchu was frightened. Although he was clean and tidy, his cheeks were sunken, his eyes were closed, and his eye sockets were sunken, like a moving skeleton.

The eldest princess told him that this was his biological father. He subconsciously called her father, but unexpectedly, Xiang Qingyuan became furious on the spot. He hit and cursed Emperor Hui of Chu, the late emperor, the world, and himself, 12 The [-]-year-old Xiao Yinchu suppressed his fear and protected the eldest princess behind him, watching the man in front of him who he should call his father go crazy.

After that day, in order to prevent Xiang Qingyuan from going crazy again, Xiao Yinchu always called him father.

This was the first time he saw Xiang Qingyuan in three years.

Three years ago, he was going to go on an expedition with Duan Qixing and meet Xiang Qingyuan for the last time. At that time, Xiang Qingyuan told him that the road was paved for him, so don't be embarrassed and come see him again when you succeed.

Looking at the sunshine outside, Xiao Yinchu felt particularly complicated.

At this time, news came from the court that Emperor Hui of Chu issued a new order.
