Chapter 283: Half Joy and Half Sorrow
How could she bear this? She wiped her tears and cried.
"Master, what's going on? How did this happen after a visit to the palace? Is Liu Lang going to abandon our Duke's Mansion?"
Mrs. Wei didn't know that this was done by the emperor, and thought that it was Shang Ji's advice, so she was still talking about this problem.
But Shang Yukuan himself hadn't recovered yet, so he couldn't listen to any more words from Mrs. Wei!
Seeing Shang Yukuan didn't speak, Mrs. Wei was anxious.
And Silang and Silang's wife, who hurried over after hearing the news, were even more anxious than Mrs. Wei.
"Mother-in-law, the position of the Duke has become Shang Zhiping's?"
Silang's wife was anxious and said something, revealing a lot of their thoughts about this position, but at this time no one had the mind to correct anything, and Mrs. Wei's tears and her father-in-law's silence gave the answer.
Silang's wife almost lost her balance, as if it was a bolt from the blue.
They have been in the Duke's Mansion for so many years. Do they have to move to Dongyuan?
"Oh, God, don't you want to give us a chance to live? Now that He'er's legs are like this, what can we do in the future?"
Her tears at this time were much more sincere than before, especially after seeing that her father-in-law Shang Yukuan had no reaction, she was even more angry and anxious.
Silang Xiaofu, who could only sit beside and sigh.
Shang Qilang, who came in later, was also very moved when he saw this scene.
"Don't cry, I'll go to the general's mansion to ask, what does this mean?"
Shang Qilang held his breath in his heart. He naturally knew about the feud between his mother and Dongyuan, but since the sixth brother came back, he wanted to mediate in the middle.
The sixth brother ignored him first, and then promoted the third brother. Now he wants to change his name and surname, and even caused his father to lose the position of the Duke. Shang Qilang has to ask about such a cruel killing.
How did the Duke's Mansion let him down?
Ask him to kill them all like this?
So, Shang Qilang threw his sleeves and went out. Madam Wei wanted her son to seek justice, but was afraid that he would be bullied by the general's mansion, so she immediately said to Madam Jiao.
"Quick, let those capable servants follow, don't let them hurt Qilang."
"Yes, madam."
After this commotion, Shang Yukuan still had no expression, and sat there woodenly. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, Madam Wei even suspected that he had died.
In her heart, she felt annoyed to look at Shang Yukuan for a second, so she stood up and said perfunctorily.
"Master, take a rest. I'll go to Prince Fu's mansion. The sky has fallen, and there can't be no one to hold it up!"
After that, he left, and Silang and Silang's wife were also rare today. Active, said to Madam Wei.
"Mother, let's go with you."
"Okay, let's go."
The current situation doesn't allow them to be so arrogant as before, so the right thing to do is to rush to Prince Fu's Mansion to hear if there is any way to break the situation.
People scattered like birds and beasts, and when Shang Yukuan reacted, there was no one in the room.
He laughed sarcastically and remembered many past events.
In theory, he was also a prosperous family with four sons and two daughters. How come his sons are dead, some are poor, some have changed their surnames, and his daughters are married and look down on him, and those who are about to get married can't even see him.
Wasn't this Duke's Mansion lively and full of laughter in the past?
How did it suddenly wither like this?
He didn't know what he had done wrong to offend His Majesty to this extent. Originally, there was only an empty shell of the Duke's Mansion, but now he couldn't even keep this position.
Ping'er?
There was nothing wrong with Ping'er's succession in terms of etiquette.
But just looking at the movements of Madam Wei and the others, we know that they will not give up easily, so, there will be trouble.
Shang Yukuan closed his eyes and leaned against the bed frame decadently, and his nose couldn't help but feel sour.
Things in the world, arsenic to one person, honey to another.
The Duke's Mansion is in turmoil, but the people in the General's Mansion are very satisfied with these imperial edicts.
Sister-in-law Liu was stunned when she took the fresh and hot imperial edict of the Duke's succession that Eunuch Liu had just sent.
It's been ten years, and her husband has been gone for ten years.
And she has lived with her son in the name of a widowed mother for ten years.
Now the child can actually return to the past and inherit the position of the Duke, which really made her unexpected.
One is that it came too fast, and the other is that it came too smoothly.
Naturally, she couldn't stand it, and hurriedly pulled Xue Niang next to her and said.
"Quick, pinch me, am I dreaming?"
Hearing this, Xue Niang looked at her sister-in-law with both joy and distress, and then patted her hand with some force, and then asked.
"Sister-in-law, does it hurt?"
"It hurts, it's true! It's actually true!"
Sister-in-law Liu's tears slid down her face, like beads that had broken off the string, crackling and falling down.
Everyone knew the pain in her heart, and Xue Niang had experienced it with her, so she was crying with joy at this moment.
"Sister-in-law, write a letter to ask Ping'er to come back quickly, such a good thing can't be delayed."
Her reminder made sister-in-law Liu react, and she quickly wiped her tears and said.
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot. Ping'er is not in Sui'an City, so I'm going to write a letter right now! Let him come back soon!"
As a result, before she could move, she was stopped by Mrs. Gu at the door.
"Absolutely not."
Sister-in-law Liu didn't understand. How could she not tell Ping'er about such a big thing?
Then Mrs. Gu spoke.
"How can a child of Ping'er's age go on the road alone? Not to mention whether there are thieves blocking the way, even the people in the Duke's Mansion will not let him come back and take over so easily. I know you are waiting for this I have been waiting for many years, but for Ping'er's safety, I have to endure it!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Liu, the sister-in-law, slapped her head.
"My grandson's daughter-in-law is so dizzy that she forgot that there are still jackals and tigers and leopards watching her. Grandma is right. She can't let him go alone. Then can we let the sixth brother's bodyguards go and take care of him?"
Madam Gu helped her anxious eldest daughter-in-law Liu sit down, and then spoke slowly.
"Of course you can pick it up, but you have to know one thing in advance. Even if Ping'er comes back, will he be able to support the Duke's mansion? If you mother and son move back now, do you think Mrs. Wei and the others will I won’t tear you two apart?”
Her few words were like a bucket of cold water poured on my sister-in-law's head, instantly making her wake up.
