Chapter 23 From the fiancee's illness
Chapter 23 From the fiancee's illness
Wu Tang pretended to be dragged by them and couldn't get away, but turned back helplessly.
"We said, we said Miss Biao, but we just ask Miss Biao not to reveal his illness to the elder son. The elder son kept this matter secret and never liked others to mention it, even Miss Biao..."
The cautious boy grabbed Wu Tang's skirt, paused and said sadly, "Don't let him get into trouble."
Wu Tang blinked her eyes, and looked like she was pondering for a moment: "Okay..."
"I hope that in case the son asks about it in the future, Miss Biao must not say that we said it." Another servant also came up.
"Alright..." Wu Tang agreed and found a seat to sit down.
The cautious boy sighed, although he was still worried, but he had no choice but to follow Wu Tang's wishes: "This matter is a secret in the mansion. I entered the mansion early and served Old Hou Ye, old Hou Ye was also very prestigious in the court at that time, just like our present son. But only people in our house know that Hou Ye is suffering from a strange disease..."
Wu Tang became interested, the stories in this illusion were really interesting, he couldn't help suspecting that the person who built this secret realm was like him, must have read a lot of chapters all day long.
But he still looked worried on the surface, without showing any trace.
"What kind of strange disease?" Wu Tang frowned slightly.
"It's a kind of madness..." The boy was still terrified when he said it, and shivered, "On a fixed day every month, he will go crazy and kill anyone he sees. No one can control it, and he must use brute force It would be better to lock Lord Hou in the room for a day."
Wu Tang muttered "cliché" silently, but no one could hear it except him, and there was still a look of urgency on his face: "Did you invite the doctor?"
"Of course I did, and I invited the imperial physician who had a close relationship with the Lord Hou. But the imperial physician had no cure, and said that the disease would be passed on from generation to generation. Only by having a son as soon as possible can the disease be passed on from Lord Hou. passed down from the body to the first offspring."
Wu Tang frowned. According to this, Yu Ji's father and Yu Ji were the first heirs respectively, and the illness at this time was probably on Yu Ji's body.
Wu Tang thought of his junior brother, he found out that the results of the palace examination would come out in two days, and although Wen Yanke was taciturn, she was very talented.
He lowered his eyes and made up his mind that if he could not find a breakthrough from Yu Ji in the past two days, then he would start with his junior brother. , or awakening Yu Ji is much more convenient than him alone.
"When this disease spread to the son, the son did not show the disease. Everyone in the house thought that there was no medicine to cure the disease, but it was just that the son hid it deeply, and the past two years He monopolized the power, and no one dared to shut him down."
The boy trembled as he said that, but what he didn't say was that although he didn't show it, it was even more frightening.
"Then he will also kill people indiscriminately?" Wu Tang frowned.
"My son won't kill people indiscriminately..." Another young man said, licking his dry lips, and then said carefully, "But I always feel that it's my son who is holding back. He only goes crazy for one day, but Shizi goes crazy every day. That's why he doesn't show that he's sick, and if he can't help it one day, he might be more crazy than anyone else."
Hearing this, the cautious servant stabbed him hard. If Wu Tang hadn't forced him to do this, he would never have said it to Miss Biao, who was about to marry the eldest son.
"Miss Biao, you don't need to worry too much. Our Elder Master has already controlled the disease very well. Besides, Miss Biao and Elder Elder's childhood sweethearts naturally know about Elder Elder's temperament. It is not easy to confide about this illness to Elder Elder. It will not only hurt Elder Elder. My heart will be broken."
Wu Tang gave the young servant a sideways look. He said this because he was afraid that he would tell Yu Ji about it, and he was afraid that he would withdraw the engagement because of this, so he asked again: "What about the wedding invitation you just talked about?"
The servant gave Wu Tang a puzzled look, but he was only puzzled and replied obediently: "It's the marriage between the Biao Miss and the Shizi, and it will be held two days after the Hou Ye's birthday, which means double happiness."
As one of the people who are about to get married, Wu Tang has never heard of this marriage.But he asked them a few more questions and couldn't find anything, so he let them go.
After the two men left, Wu Tang sat in the corner, thinking about his current situation, the snow was getting bigger and bigger, Wu Tang waited for the new snow to cover the footprints of the two young servants before returning. own room.
For the next two days, Wu Tang kept trying to find Yu Ji's whereabouts, but he seemed to be busy all the time, and Wu Tang couldn't find him.
Soon it was the day of the birthday banquet, Wu Tang was dragged up by the maid Chuntao early on, and she had to make up again, but fortunately Wu Tang no longer regarded the current body as her own, and let Chuntao dress up.
"Why do you have to dress so complicatedly?" Wu Tang dozed off for a moment and opened his eyes, and frowned when he saw the reflection in the mirror. His hair was full of beaded hair, and the skirt on his body was also complicated and gorgeous.
"Today is Lord Hou's birthday, so naturally I have to dress up for Miss." Chuntao said, busy with her hands.
Wu Tang suddenly remembered that on a festive day in the world, one must dress festively, so he yawned and didn't say anything else.
Wu Tang followed the crowd to pay homage to the old Hou Ye in turn. There were many rules. Wu Tang only watched what the people in front of him did and then followed.
Since it was Yu Ji's grandfather's birthday, shouldn't he be there early?
When it was finally time for him to kneel in front of the old master, although he was not reconciled with his status, he would kneel down for someone in the illusion.
But Nian here, no one can see him, and it is also to get out of the illusion, and only he can hear the snort in his heart, so he kneels in front of the old Hou Ye, and salutes and celebrates his birthday like other juniors.
The old Hou Ye looked at him, and a light flashed under his aging and drooping eyelids: "Are you Tang'er?"
Although the old Hou Ye did not prevent Wu Tang from coming to the Hou Mansion in the past, he never let Wu Tang see him, he just pretended not to be him.
Since Wu Tang is a junior, the people who have celebrated their birthdays before him are already sitting around, half of them are relatives of the Hou Mansion, and the other half are the ministers' wives who are good friends with the Hou Mansion. Seeing this, Madam Yu explained: "Return to Dad , he is Tang'er."
Old Hou Ye looked at Wu Tang slightly, and the air suddenly became stagnant.
Most of the people present had heard about the quarrel between Master Hou and Mother Wu Tang, so they all wanted to see how Master Hou would react.
"I'm going to get married to the eldest son in two days, why are you still staying in the mansion at this time?" After a long while, the old Hou Ye finally spoke, he smiled kindly, but the words in his mouth were a bit threatening.
There is a custom in the world that men and women cannot meet each other for a few days before they get married, but Wu Tang didn't know about this time, and no one chased him away, so he stayed in the mansion all the time.
Everyone present also saw that Lord Hou was not satisfied with this marriage, which refers to a marriage of the belly.But without the consent of Lord Hou, no one dared to speak for him.
Wu Tang knelt on the ground for a long time and his knees hurt. He didn't know the customs in the mortal world, so he didn't know why he couldn't stay in the mansion. He only knew that this person was deliberately embarrassing him. He could only kneel down as he wanted.
"Grandfather will live forever, grandson is late." Suddenly, a person knelt down next to Wu Tang, the hem of the robe fell on his lap, and the sleeves were touching his arm.
Wu Tang was stunned and turned around to look, what he saw was Yu Ji's handsome profile, his eyes lit up immediately.
Yu Ji wore a brocade robe, and the cold air covered half of Wu Tang's body.
At this time, Wu Tang felt that his current situation was a bit embarrassing. He originally wanted to change Yu Ji's impression of him, but now it seemed that he had added a dark stroke, which he couldn't wash away.
Wu Tang turned around without saying a word, and knelt awkwardly with her eyes downcast.
"It's the grandson's idea. The grandson thinks that today is the grandfather's birthday, and Wu Tang is the grandson's cousin, so naturally he is also the grandfather's junior. Therefore, he is kept against the custom, just so that he can celebrate the grandfather's birthday." Yu Yu The voice of the machine is clear and clear, although it is kneeling, but the momentum is not weakened at all, but the eyes are looking straight ahead.
Wu Tang recalled what the boy had said before, that Yu's body was insane, but at this moment he couldn't tell it at all.
