Chapter 113 Mother and Uncle Have an Affair
Presumably, Wen Zhaoyi didn't want to see them eavesdropping here, so before Wen Zhaoyi came out, Gu Jianchu pulled Zhu Xia away quickly.
When Wen Zhaoyi emerged from the veranda room, she found the corridor empty. Sunlight streamed in through the high walls, making the corridor half sunny and half shaded. She held the hand of the little palace maid and whispered, "When will mother stop siding with my uncle's family?"
"Your Majesty, what the Madam said is actually not wrong. Now that you have entered the palace, you have to consider your future. Having a child can be your support for the rest of your life. You can't always revolve around the Queen. The Queen has the entire Nanping Marquis' Mansion behind her, and the Earl's Mansion obviously can't help Your Majesty too much." The little palace maid stopped talking.
Wen Zhaoyi turned to look at the palace maid beside her, her eyes gradually turning cold.
Her dowry maid was arranged by her uncle to be by her side. Concubine Wen did not like to have her follow her around, and she felt depressed every time she followed her. She took the opportunity to give the little maid the cold shoulder when she did something wrong, and promoted the second-class maid assigned to her by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
If you don't listen carefully, there is nothing wrong with what the little palace maid said. It seems that she is thinking about her in every way. But if you listen carefully, there are problems everywhere.
"I'll consider it." Wen Zhaoyi walked in the sunshine, feeling a chill all over her body.
Gu Jianchu hurried away, frowning and whispering, "Do you think there's something wrong with Wen Zhaoyi's mother?"
Zhuxi was stunned for a moment by Gu Jianchu's question.
Zhu Xia was quick to speak, "This is a serious problem. She actually instigated Consort Wen to share the Majesty's favor. She even wanted to give birth to a son before the Majesty and make plans for the Earl's Mansion. Fortunately, I thought Consort Wen was a good person before."
Gu Jianchu smiled helplessly and tapped Zhu Xia's forehead, saying, "She entered the palace as a concubine. What else could she fight for if not for the Emperor's favor? Was she just going to live out her life in the harem alone? As for Madam Wen, as a parent, why wouldn't she make plans for her own child? What I find strange is that Madam Wen let Consort Wen compete for favor not for the sake of the Second House, nor for Consort Wen's future, but for the First House, which holds the title."
Zhuxi didn't react. "It was the Earl's Mansion that sent Consort Wen to the palace. Madam Wen wanted to repay the Earl's Mansion, so it's okay for Consort Wen to think about the Earl's Mansion."
"My dear majesty, we really can't guess, so please tell us." Zhu Xia was now completely curious about Gu Jianchu.
"What's strange to me is that Madam Wen keeps mentioning the Earl's Mansion. If it was just normal gratitude, it would be fine if she just gave a few more instructions, but it's really annoying to have her mentioning it all the time." Based on her experience as a melon-eater, she knew there was definitely something big going on here.
It was just as she expected.
The mechanical sound of the system sounded in her mind.
[Because Wen Zhaoyi's mother had an affair with her uncle.]
[Then Zhaoyi Wen's father must be wearing a huge green hat.]
[Of course, although Consort Wen's father was the old lady's second son, she was extremely partial to the eldest son, giving him all the good things. Knowing he wouldn't make a name for himself in the family, the second son thought of taking the imperial examination to secure a better future. Unfortunately, he failed. On his way back from reading the list, he saved a young girl who was being bullied by hooligans. That girl was Wen Nuan's mother, and his leg was broken by the hooligans. From then on, Wen Nuan's father became a villain.]
Madam Wen's family background wasn't good either. She married Consort Wen's biological father under the pretext of repaying a favor. The old lady favored her eldest son and wasn't interested in her younger son's marriage, allowing Madam Wen, who came from a less prominent family background, to marry into the family.
The second son knew that his leg was lame and that passing the imperial examination was hopeless. To ensure Madam Wen's well-being, he chose to go into business. Fortunately, he had some business acumen, and in just two years, he multiplied his business several times over. He is now one of the wealthiest merchants in the capital. Even so, the eldest son still looked down on him.
Not long after Madam Wen came into the family, the second son went to Jiangnan to work as a sailor. The eldest son, a pervert, coveted Madam Wen's beauty. He knew the old lady was on his side and would help him even if something went wrong, so he took advantage of the second son's absence and drugged Madam Wen to sleep with her.
At first, Madam Wen was still making a fuss, but the old lady pretended not to understand. Seeing this, the eldest son became even more aggressive. Whenever the second son was not at home, he would often sneak over to the second son's house. Over time, Madam Wen actually fell in love with the eldest son. From then on, Madam Wen often helped the eldest son's family privately. At the time, when the eldest son's daughter was sent to the palace, the eldest son's daughter already had someone she loved and was unwilling to enter, so Madam Wen took the initiative to suggest that her own daughter be sent to the palace.
[I've seen many Hades, but this is the first time I've seen one treat my daughter this way.]
Is this Madam Wen the snake from The Farmer and the Snake or the wolf from Mr. Dongguo and the Wolf? Father Wen Nuan saved her life, even injuring his leg for her. Yet, she's so ungrateful, not only not repaying his kindness, but even sacrificing their own daughter to the palace just to help the eldest brother's family.
Madam Wen is well aware of the old lady's true nature. What's the point of arguing with her? She should have reported this matter directly to the police, or told her husband. I think Madam Wen is someone who can't stand being alone. She's only trying to maintain her precarious reputation and her last bit of defense by letting Wen Dashui struggle.
[She didn't tell her husband, not because she was afraid of being exposed, but because she really enjoyed her interactions with Wen Da.]
At that time, Xie Ci'an, who was passing through the corridor in a sedan chair, heard the queen's sharp explosion.
He heard Gu Jianchu's last few words clearly, but they were a little confusing. He could vaguely make out that they were related to the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion.
Xie Ci'an pressed the button for the sedan chair a few times. Cheng Song, who was walking beside the sedan chair, immediately stepped forward and opened the curtain. "Ask Wen Zhu to keep an eye on the movements of the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion for the time being."
The emperor had previously said that it was not appropriate to attack the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion now, so why did he suddenly change his mind?
He didn't dare to ask too much about this matter, and signaled Xiao Fuzi with his eyes to do it.
As soon as Xiao Fuzi left, Cheng Song saw the Queen leading people through the corridor and heading towards the Imperial Garden. "Your Majesty, it's the Queen."
It was not surprising to meet Queen Xie Ci'an, otherwise he would not have vaguely heard Gu Jianchu's sharp and explosive voice. He had tried before to see how far away he could hear Gu Jianchu's inner voice, but the result was that he could only hear it within five meters.
"Go and bring the queen here." Xie Ci'an leaned lazily on the soft pillow beside him.
After a while, Gu Jianchu was supported by Cheng Song and got on the sedan chair. Xie Ci'an took the opportunity to hold Gu Jianchu's hand and pulled gently. Gu Jianchu fell into Xie Ci'an's arms. Before she could be shocked, the sedan chair started moving again.
Xie Ci'an put his big hands around her waist and naturally put her on his knees.
