Bastards

In the northwest corner of the Wang family, a courtyard was specially set up to be comparable in size and environment to the main courtyard, separated by a small gate, and used as a family temple.

The place here is very big, but it is very quiet, there are few servants, only Wang Wu is the master, and Wang Ji counts as half of them.Wang Ji grew up here when he was a child, and he lived here very little time as an adult, but as long as he was at home, he would spend every day here, either with Wang Wu, or to exchange ideas with Wang Wu, or to be busy together.

On the day of the birthday banquet, water drained from a corner of the family temple and burned down several connecting rooms, but the courtyard was so large that Wang Wu continued to live in another place instead of moving outside.

There are towering old trees and green tiles and red walls in the courtyard. Except for the occasional breeze blowing through the fallen leaves and making a soft rustle, the place is as quiet as a painting.

Wang Wu was sitting in front of the court in the deepest part of the courtyard, with a cup of tea on the table in front of her, and a scroll in her plain hand, just looking at the colorful autumn scenery, sipping tea, and a few pages of books, she felt at ease.

She is not ignorant of things outside.

She is ice-snow and smart, with extremely strong wrists. A few years ago, she was able to control matters that affected the Wang family, but now she has retreated from the family temple for many years, and no one in the Wang family dares to underestimate her as an aunt.No matter what happens, it doesn't mean that you don't know and can't control it.

As early as this morning, when there was a commotion outside, she knew it.

The servant said that Prince Ying carried the coffin to the gate of Wang's house. She believed it. That man has always been lawless, and there is nothing he dares to do or can't do.But if it was said that he was really dead or committed suicide, she would not believe it at all.

The Western Turks are still alive, and the two grandsons have not yet married. The eldest grandson has a crush on her Wang family, and she is the Wang Ji who was raised by her. No matter how you look at it, it is very troublesome to solve it. ——

How could that stinking hooligan be willing to die?

Maybe he just learned some kind of tortoise breathing technique, holding his breath for a moment or three quarters, to deceive Wang Duo.

She doesn't want to care about this matter at all.

Let Yang Shu go to make trouble, let Wang Duo go to have a headache, she doesn't care at all!

Back then, she made such a decision and made such an oath through humiliation. To this day, she has never regretted it, but she doesn't want the child she raised to live like this.

Wang Ji... is a good boy who deserves a better life.

If Yang Shu can make trouble, Wang Duo nods his head and helps the two juniors, counting his ability, it is also Wang Ji's luck. If the Yang family refuses to accept Wang Duo, Yang Xu can't marry Wang Ji, because his Yang family is not capable.

Today is different from a few decades ago, the Yang family is in power, the country is stable, the family has repeatedly gone downhill, and the confidence of the past has long been lost. If the Yang family still cannot take down Wang Duo, they will not be able to protect them in the future...

What is such a waste snack for?It's better to kick and throw it away!

The child she raised has an extraordinary heart and aura, and deserves to be matched by the best!

So no matter how noisy outside, Wang Wu has made up her mind in her heart, what to do, it will not be affected at all.

Until Wang Duo sent someone to invite him.

"You said... Patriarch told me to go out?" She slowly closed the pages of the book, frowning slightly, her eyes on her fingertips, slightly out of focus, as if she was wondering about something.

The mother sent a blessing deeply: "Yes, the master sent a message, please go to the main entrance."

Wang Wu's heart skipped a beat.

That stinky old man is here today because of Wang Ji, since the matter is over, why does Wang Duo want her to go out?Also used the word 'must'?

Could it be... that person is really dead?So Wang Duo couldn't bear it?

No, no, she shook her head, if the person is really dead, what's the point if she can't go out?

Unprecedented, she was a little confused.

There is a distance between the inner house and the outer courtyard, and the news is always a bit late, not so timely, but the most trusted nun around Wang Duo can't be fake...

Wang Wu thought for a while, then stood up: "...I'll go right away."

……

"Hold on tight..."

"Miss, why don't you come down, what should you do if you are seen by others? And it's too high, what if you fall!"

Wang Shibaniang stepped on the ladder and leaned against the wall to peek out secretly. The maid helping her on the ladder was about to cry.

But Wang Shibaniang is not afraid.She has tried this ladder, it is so strong that it cannot be broken, she is not that heavy, and she is careful enough, how could it fall down?And this place is so hidden, it is impossible for anyone to find it!

Most importantly, it's really... so lively outside!

It’s like singing a big drama, wave after wave, let’s not talk about the onlookers, just talk about Cui Yu and the prince... I feel that they match each other for no reason!

That figure, that temperament, that ambiguous atmosphere that can be felt from a long distance, that flourishing beauty that only the two of them can match... It's the king of Yue in the middle, it's too an eyesore!

Have a little self-knowledge!What are you doing stuck between two fairy-like characters!Don't you feel like you are redundant!Don't you think you are ugly?

He also touched Cui Yu's little white tiger, didn't he see that although the little white tiger disliked the prince, he was obviously closer to the prince!

Ugh……

There was also this group of onlookers, who were all looking at things, and none of them felt the same way as she did, looking at Cui Yu and the prince with bright eyes.

Life is really lonely as snow, it's hard to find a soulmate...

Wang Duo sent someone to invite Wang Wu, and it took some time to go back and forth. Some people in the crowd were anxious, so they urged him.

Emotions are contagious, and soon, many people become emotional.

Wang Duo...Wang Duo didn't care anymore, he couldn't care anyway.

Cui Yu smiled and pressed his hands, his voice was clear and soft, with a soothing breath: "Everyone, don't worry, although there is not much time, this matter cannot be rushed. Grandma Wang will come out later, please everyone Don't put pressure on it, it's best if she initiates it on her own, she is willing, and the effect will be the best, if the outside world presses her blindly, it may have the opposite effect."

The common people covered their lips with their mouths and nodded vigorously: "Yeah, I understand!"

"Must not force you!"

"Let's beg my aunt to agree!"

……

Soon, a woman in plain clothes walked out of the gate of the Wang family.

Plain white dress, no pattern, no hidden embroidery, very ordinary women's dress style, neither wide nor elegant, the cuffs of the upper body are slightly tight, and the skirt is spread out at the waist. The person has an elegant figure, a straight back, and a different kind of sass, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Aunt Wang's grandma, a pair of beautiful eyes are black and clear, like the light of a bright moon, and her two beautiful eyebrows are slightly raised, slanting into her temples, exuding a heroic spirit.I will be over [-] next year, but except for a little fine lines around my eyes, I am very young, my face is not sagging, my cheeks are firm, my complexion is rosy, and I am very energetic.

How do you look like a person in his fifties!

Everyone paused for a while, and just now someone called softly: "Grandma Wang's family! It's Grandma Wang's family who is here!"

Thinking of what the half-immortal told them just now, these people quickly covered their mouths, and their eyes were fixed on Wang Wu, not leaving for a moment.

Wang Duo... Wang Duo didn't even have the courage to look at Wang Wu anymore, so he just waved at her and pointed to Prince Ying's coffin.

Wang Wu lowered her eyes slightly, saluted slowly, and walked towards Yang Shu's coffin.

"Plop-plop-"

With the footsteps, her heartbeat became faster and louder, and she couldn't see or hear everything around her, as if the only coffin in front of her was left in this world.

Although the oath was made like that, she didn't want to see such a scene at all.

Yang Shu...Yang Shu!

If you dare die—

Wang Wu thought that she was very strong, that after going through these long years, she could bear everything, but when she saw the person lying in the coffin, tears filled her eyes instantly.

Blue skin, purple lips, blue nails, this is the appearance of poisoning!

This old rascal is really dead!

The trembling hand gently touched Yang Shu's lifeless face, and Wang Wu's voice was so soft that she couldn't hear it: "I haven't seen you for many years, but you are so old and ugly...or when I actually met you, you were so ugly, but I didn't." Discover?"

It's okay to die... If you die, you don't have to suffer, you won't feel uncomfortable.

"But you left me here alone..." Wang Wu paused, then smiled, "It's actually quite good. I'm old too... I can't compare to when I was young, and I don't look good at all."

Such a separation between yin and yang, and the best appearance of each other in memory, which is also very good.

At least I don't have to worry about imagining meeting them anymore.

Because...forever and forever, I will never see you again.

The scene was very quiet. The people stared wide-eyed and clenched their fists to their chests. They couldn't help worrying for Wang Wu: Hurry up, hurry up and express your wish, save the old man!

Being watched by so many passionate eyes, Wang Wuruo can still go on sad, she is really a god.

What's more, she was already intelligent and sensitive. How could she not notice that these people gave her so many emotional expressions?

Looking across the crowd, everyone's faces were full of surprise and anticipation, and they all stared at her fiercely.

Wang Wu's tears of shock were all taken back.

The corners of her eyes drooped slightly, and the corners of her eyes twitched, suddenly thinking of something.

Just now when she cared about it, she became chaotic and lost her mind. Is it true...

She immediately turned around and bowed her head, carefully observing Yang Shu's death.

Seeing this, she almost sneered.

It was a dream of seven hearts!

Seven Hearts Blood Fantasy is a blind poison that she prepared by herself in the early years. After poisoning, the manifestations are not much different from ordinary poisoning deaths. Only seven-star erythema will appear on the bottom of the wrist. Take the antidote orally two days after death, and it will be cured without any side effects.

Because the seven-star erythema will appear after the poison is released, although it is small, it is very obvious, and there is nothing to hide, so she discarded it.She can be matched with someone who is several times more effective than this poison. This is really useless, and she doesn't regret it at all.

She developed this medicine a long time ago, so she didn't know much about it. At that time, the amount she made was even smaller. She thought it would be destroyed, but she didn't expect that this old hooligan still kept a little bit of it, and even used it on himself to deceive her!

She is the only one who owns this poison, only she can cure it, no one knows...

Looking at the scene again, how could Wang Wu fail to guess that Yang Shu was playing tricks on purpose?

She ground her teeth secretly, this shameless old rascal came after her!It's really promising, how dare you force her like this!She is sure that she is reluctant to let him die, so she will definitely explain to him, right?

Pooh!Auntie control you to death!

In her life, the last thing she would eat was this kind of persecution!

Wang Wu took a few deep breaths before she stabilized her mind, and her eyes slid aside.

Yang Xu and Yang Zhao are silly children, their expressions can't be fake, they must not know; Wang Duo, the aristocratic family, including the king of Yue, have different expressions, but the feeling of ignorance is also obvious; let alone the common people, they all Inspired by Yang Shu's play; the prince...the prince's expression was a little playful; Cui Yu, who is known as a half-immortal, actually smiled at her, with a straightforward face, and he almost said to her, "I know everything about me, Also worked hard 'too.

If it wasn't for the fact that Yang Shu was still a dead person, Wang Wu would have slapped him across the face.This time I have grown my brain, and I know how to find a helper!

Thinking that she was deceived and shed tears just now, Wang Wu became angry and looked at Wang Duo: "The old man has passed away, and since he has sent him off, it's nothing to do with me, so I'll go back now."

Anyway, as long as the poison is cured within two days, she doesn't believe that this group of people can still make trouble for two days and two nights!

Find someone to give the antidote to Wang Ji later, Wang Ji will know how to do it...

As for Yang Shu, this person's pursuit of pleasing her has never been in the right direction!

She squinted at the coffin in disgust.

Wang Duo looked at her with complicated eyes, seeming to disapprove but also satisfied.

What he disagreed with was that Wang Wu refused, and returned to the Wang family temple. Cui Mata's prediction might come true, and the Wang family would plummet and become exhausted from then on. He is the sinner of the Wang family.What is satisfactory is that Wang Wu is still his favorite and most satisfied sister in the end. Up to now, she is still persisting and working hard for his face.

Wang Duo didn't speak, but the common people quit, and they all cheered up: "Farewell, Grandma Wu!"

"Grandma, don't go!"

"Grandma stay here!"

"The old man has less than an hour. After that, Lord Yan has sentenced him to the wheel of life and death, and he will never come back!"

Wang Wu was very surprised: "This...how did you say it?"

There was no need for others to push, Cui Mata stood up by himself: "This is what I said."

No matter how good the deception is, it can't fool smart people. No matter how good this plan is, Wang Wu must understand the last step. She doesn't understand, how to detoxify the old man, how to take a step forward, and reconcile this relationship?

So Cui Yu was generous and generous, and passed Minglu directly in front of Wang Wu. Of course, he still had to say what he said to pretend to be a magic stick. again.

Wang Wu didn't expose his words, but only looked at him carefully: "Your Excellency is Cui Yu, the half-immortal of Chang'an?"

Cui Yu smiled: "I dare not take it, it is everyone's love."

Wang Wu narrowed her eyes: "It's better to be famous than to be famous."

Cui Yu's smile remained unchanged: "You're absurd." After a short pause, he continued, "There is a saying that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Do you seriously—don't think about it?"

Wang Wu lowered her eyes slightly: "But I swore—"

"So now you haven't seen the coffin of the Prince of England?"

The prince took a step forward, with a chic posture: "Although Gu didn't participate in what happened back then, he listened carefully to others. It was not your fault. Why did you suffer yourself? You did it for the Wang family and the head of the Wang family. Not enough? When Wang Jue died, God was jealous of the talents, and everyone felt sorry for them. However, the fate is here. The dead are gone, and the living should be like this. because--"

"Enough!" Wang Duo suddenly said, stopped Yang Xuan's words, and fixedly looked at Wang Wu, "Enough is enough! Ah Wu, I am sorry for you, it is the Wang family who restrained you, for so many years, enough is enough You go, go save Prince Ying, it’s okay to marry someone after death, you... go.”

Speaking of this, he still put on a straight face: "If you are hard-hearted and don't want to save Prince Ying, then don't go back to my royal family!"

The people roared.

This Wang Duo is so shameless!He said everything!

But at this moment, such a shameless performance... very good!

Can have some more!

Grandma Wu belongs to Prince Ying!

I will never return to your royal family!

Wang Wu looked at Wang Duo, her expression changed a lot, her expression was disbelief.

What happened in this short period of time?Why did this stubborn old man become like this, she didn't even know it!

Cui Yu took a step forward, with bright eyes and a resounding voice: "Aunt Wang, I admire your fierceness, your choice! In order to keep the peace between the two parties, you swore never to see the Prince of England again. Your coffin is your coffin facing him, now that the oath has been fulfilled, you can abandon the past and do as you please!"

Yang Xuan cooperated very tacitly and seamlessly: "The fate of a lifetime, the following of the whole life, are you really willing to let go? Decades have been missed, and now the vows are fulfilled. Do you really want to give up this fate because of a moment of anger? How long has life been in a hurry? Ten years, non-solitary curse, your life is indeed not as long as the young people of my generation, how can you live up to it!"

Although the King of Yue was a bit slow, he did not want to be outdone and stepped forward: "If you still have concerns, I can ask my father to make an order!"

Yang Xu and Yang Zhao are very sensible. At this moment, he walked in front of Wang Wu, and knelt down with a plop: "My brother and I have followed our grandfather since we were young, and there has never been a woman in the back house of the palace! If you mind us—"

Wang Wu immediately waved her hand to stop her: "What do I care about with you juniors, don't say such things again!"

How did these two grandsons come from? She knows best that Yang Shu can't have no heirs, so she gave the servant girl a face... At that time, she was a little jealous, but who is she?What identity?She swore to herself that she could not be with Yang Shu for the rest of her life, could not have children for him, and prevented him from marrying someone else?What's more, he didn't marry anyone, he only had one servant...

That servant girl was unlucky, she passed away shortly after giving birth to her son, and she rejoiced for a moment, then felt guilty, lamenting that she was still a woman after all, and she couldn't escape the jealousy and pity for the innocent child... But after that, Yang Shu's side... No one ever.She listened to his news, watched him work hard to raise his son, rough care of his two grandsons, and sincerely hoped that Yang Shu would let her go and find a caring person.

They are all getting old slowly, can't afford to toss about, and can't afford to be romantic.

But Yang Shu didn't.

If it weren't for this, she wouldn't always remember this person, and never forget it...

She admired Yang Xu and Yang Zhao very much, but also felt a little guilty. If it wasn't for her, they would have been taken care of by their mistress, and they wouldn't have been so wandering and struggling to grow up when they were young.

Everyone looked at Wang Wu's expression slightly relaxed, and shouted one by one.

"Grandma Wu is asking to marry me!"

"The old man is very good, and will protect you for the rest of his life!"

"The old man can love others, you won't regret it!"

"It's not easy for the old man. He has paid so much for the country and the people, so he should have a good old age!"

"Please be sure to marry the old man!"

All of a sudden, there were thousands of responses, and the voice of "marriage proposal" was heard endlessly. Some people even knelt down to Wang Wu with a very sincere expression, as if this matter was really important to them and they were looking forward to it.

Wang Wu's eyes were a little wet.

Marry Yang Shu...

How could she be unwilling?

After waiting for a lifetime, looking forward to a lifetime, I thought that all the friendships have long been smoothed out by the years, and it doesn't matter what happens.But just for a moment, the moment when I saw Yang Shu lying in the coffin silently, the fear, the sadness, the pain of being squeezed by a big hand, are actually the same as before many years ago.

She remembered the original intention of her swearing.

Why do you have to speak so harshly?Don't die?

It's because she knows that if she is not tough, she might change her mind after meeting her.

But the power of the Wang family, the life of Yang Shu... This idea must never be changed!

Fortunately, Yang Shu turned out to be Yang Shu, no matter how irritable or mischievous, protecting her was above everything else.He would not let her be wronged in the slightest, and he did not dare to take the risk of losing her even a little bit. No matter how much he longed, how much he wanted to see her, he would endure it. He would rather sit on her roof every night, drinking and blowing the cold wind.

How could she not know about the rat-like roof year after year, the inexplicable gift that was always messed up year after year?How could you not know!

Maybe even everything today was calculated accurately by him, predicting all her reactions, letting everyone coax her, support her, let her walk towards him without any burden or shame...

Wang Wu looked up at the sky, controlled the tears not to flow down, and after a long time, she nodded slightly amidst everyone's echo: "...Okay, I agree."

She smiled very brightly, and the tears she wanted to control finally fell down her cheeks.

Even so, she was still beautiful, exactly the same as the twenty-eight-year-old girl before she got married, shy, beautiful, and happy.

"Ooooooooooo-"

The roar of the auspicious beast white tiger seemed to open an auspicious chapter, and there seemed to be echoing music in the void.

The king of Yue grabbed the head and said loudly: "This king's order: it is an expedient measure. In order to relieve Prince Ying's danger, send Prince Ying back to the mansion immediately. Wang Wu will accompany him into the mansion. All the cumbersome etiquette will be followed, and he will make up after the Prince Ying recovers!"

The common people don't care who is talking now, they spontaneously urged each other to follow: "Quick! Prince Ying's personal guard, that big man is called Yan Yang, right? Hurry up and carry the coffin, and send Prince Ying back to the mansion!"

"Come on, give way, everyone give way to the Prince Ying's mansion, so that the old man can be saved sooner!"

"Let's send the Prince of England! Escort his old man all the way home!"

"Yes! We are still waiting at his door to see if he will scare himself when he wakes up hahaha——"

Watching the team go away, the atmosphere of the people is extremely harmonious, Cui Yu and Yang Xuan quietly looked at each other, eyes full of warmth.

Finally... It's done!

The little tiger came over, touched Yang Xuan's calf, and then ran to rub Cui Yu's hand, "Meow——" let out a cry.

In the end, he squatted obediently on the ground, tilting his head to look at them.

It's been a while, shouldn't it be reconciled?
