Chapter 554 (2/2)
However, the first thing haishangchen did when he returned to the capital was to marry the second daughter of the Chen family. In any case, it was the most secure to hold prosperity and wealth in his hand, and the people next to him were the second.
Hai Shangchen emerged in the imperial court with his own skills, and with the help of the Chen family, he became a confidant of the new emperor in just six months.
After confirming his position, Hai Shangchen admitted to his wife that he had married a wife and had a son in his hometown.
Chen almost lost his breath. How can he bear it?
But Hai Shangchen was a clever man. He knelt in front of his wife and cried bitterly. He swore to God that he was forced to go to the landlord's daughter, not voluntarily. The reason why he didn't say that he was afraid that his wife wouldn't marry him, because the person he really liked in his heart was the person in front of him.
After all, it was a woman. Moreover, Hai Shangchen was properly expected to be an official. There was a bright future in the future. After weighing the left and right, Chen promised Hai Shangchen to bring his first wife and son to the capital, but the other party could only be a concubine.
If he was a concubine, the son would become a concubine and could not threaten the status of her legitimate son.
Unfortunately, Chen's mind was always difficult to calm, so when Hai Shangchen happily sent someone to pick up his old mother, qiuniang and son, Chen also sent someone out.
Chen asked the people he sent to disguise as thieves and killed the three people on the way.
Unfortunately, God opened her eyes. That qiuniang was smart. She protected her son at the critical moment. She was pretended to be dead by holding her breath. She also told him to hold his breath in his ear. Therefore, she cheated the killers. They were ordered to act. They were afraid of being found out. They didn't dare to stay long and left quickly.
The old mother died soon and died on the spot, but Qiu Niang and Hai Xiuyan survived. However, after this incident, Qiu Niang hurt the root and went there in a few years, leaving Qingzhu to raise Hai Xiuyan.
Afraid that haishangchen would kill them all, haixiuyan changed his name.
But even if Hai Xiuyan changed his name, Hai Shangchen still thought it was his son, but it was too absurd. Those people said that people were dead, so he didn't recognize it. Hai Shangchen didn't dare to be sure until he saw green bamboo.
He pulled Hai Xiuyan's sleeve and hurriedly explained: ”I didn't send the people back then, it was Chen! She sent them. It really has nothing to do with me! It was late when I arrived!”
”Good one has nothing to do with you!” Hai Xiuyan smiled low. He looked at Hai Shangchen, who has some blood relationship with himself but has become an enemy. ”You know that Chen sent someone to kill us, but you still hold down this matter, because in your heart, you wish we would die earlier. Chen just fulfilled your wish!”
”What nonsense are you talking about! I don't! How can you think of me like that!” Hai Shangchen's angry face turned red and retorted loudly. He didn't know whether he wanted to deny it or what.
”Do you know it in your heart?” Hai Xiu Yanhong looked at her and gnashed his teeth. He would never forget that her mother was lying in bed with unwilling and angry eyes. Her husband, who entrusted her wholeheartedly and gave everything, turned out to be the murderer who killed her. How can she not be angry and hate? ”I was wondering if you have any difficulties, so I wanted to try it myself and see how difficult it is for poor children to be officials in the dynasty.”
Hai Shangchen's eyes tightened, his whole body trembled and couldn't speak.
Only heard Hai Xiuyan say: ”in fact, it's really not easy, but it's not as easy as I imagined. After all, these can be tolerated compared with the sins I've suffered before.”
