Chapter 1359 Alienation
Chapter 1359 Alienation
Yun Shang stayed in the East Palace for quite a long time before returning to Weiyang Palace.
Luo Qingyan hadn't come back yet.
Yun Shang leaned against the couch, pretending to be asleep. Her mind was in a mess, and she
couldn't fall asleep.
After lying there for a while, Yun Shang opened her eyes and sat up again.
Qian Zhuo stood aside and watched. She knew what Yun Shang was thinking about, so she tried to
distract Yun Shang's attention, "By the way, your majesty, something new has happened in the Cao
clan."
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows. Although she was not in the mood, she nodded and asked, "What's
their new movement?"
"Cao Yi's wife, concubines and children have come back."
"They're back?" Yun Shang sat up straight. She frowned, "When did this happen? Weren't they sent
away? Why are they back again? "
"Yes. The secret guards did send Cao Yi's wife, concubine and children away, but they were sent back
again."
Yun Shang pressed her lips and frowned, "What does the Sun clan want to do? I've sent their enemies
to them. They didn't take the opportunity to revenge, but returned them intact? "
"Yes, your majesty." Qian Zhuo continued, "Although they were sent back, they are not intact."
"Oh?" Yun Shang looked at Qian Shang and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Cao Yi's wife is pregnant."
Yun Shang was more surprised, "Pregnant? It is... Whose? "
With a smile at the corners of her mouth, Qian Zhuo said, "The key is that according to the months of
the unborn baby in Cao Yi's wife's belly, she should get pregnant about the time she left the Jin City.
Thus the matter became a little complicated. It might be before or after she left the Jin City. Cao Yi's
wife, however, insisted that the baby was Cao Yi's. But Cao Yi's concubines said that along the way,
there were people in Cao Yi's wife's room.
Cao Yi asked where they had been and what had happened after they disappeared, but no one could
make it clear. They even didn't feel that they had ever disappeared... "
Yun Shang couldn't help smiling, "Of course they can't tell everything clear. After all, they all passed out
all the way. They had been in a coma for more than a month. When they woke up, Cao Yi's wife NôvelDrama.Org © content.
suddenly had a baby in her belly, and it's hard to tell whether the baby is Cao Yi's.
Interesting." A sharp light flashed through Yun Shang's eyes, "The Sun clan probably knew that Cao
Yi's wife was pregnant, so they did it on purpose. Their purpose is to sow dissension among
themselves.
"That's right. Rather than directly killing them or threatening the Cao clan with their lives, it's better to
let the Cao clan be alienated."
"This is the case." Qian Zhuo nodded, "I heard that the Cao mansion is bustling with chaos.
Cao Yi's wife has a good background. She is the daughter of the Zhou family, a notable clan in the Jin
City. Her father is a third grade official in the court. And just because of this, she took her child back to
her parents' home in anger.
She probably wants to make Cao Yi regret and beg her to go back to the Cao mansion. Unexpectedly,
there are some rumors in the city that Cao Yi's wife, concubines and children were kidnapped on the
way to another manor. In the end no one knew where they had been, but now they suddenly returned
to the Jin City, with an unborn baby in Cao Yi's wife's belly.
With such rumors, most people in the city are talking about the family. Some said that their
disappearance and abduction were humbug. Actually, it was Cao Yi's wife who went to meet her lover.
Some said that Cao Yi's wife was raped by a robber. The robber found that Cao Yi's wife was pregnant
and released her.
"Besides, in addition to Cao Yi's wife, perhaps those concubines have been slept by the robbers. But
they are not pregnant, so we can't tell."
Yun Shang's eyes flashed with interest, "And then?"
"Cao Yi is a man of dignity. As soon as the rumor came out, he became even angrier. He dismissed all
the concubines in the mansion and gave his wife a letter of divorce.
His wife is even more angry. She swore that she would not contact with Cao Yi and even aborted her
baby."
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and said, "She is a woman of character."
After a pause, she continued, "Cao Yi's wife has been living together with Cao Yi for more than twenty
years. She should know him well and know a lot of Secrets of the Cao mansion. Send someone to..."
Yun Shang stopped suddenly. She frowned as if she was thinking about something.
"Should we send someone to Cao Yi's wife and try every means to inquire about the news?"
However, Yun Shang shook her head and said, "Maybe, this is a drama from the Cao mansion.
Cao Han should be clear about my means. He knows that I have secretly planted many people in the
Cao mansion, around him, and around Cao Yi of course.
Maybe Cao Yi cares about his face, but this case doesn't make sense logically."
Qian Zhuo looked at Yun Shang unblinkingly, "Why doesn't it make sense?"
"You just said that Cao Yi's wife was pregnant around the time she left the Jin City?"
"Yes, your majesty."
Yun Shang pursed her lips and then said, "Since it was around the time they left the Jin City, Cao Yi
shouldn't have doubted it. Although Cao Yi's wife left the Jin City, the time we kidnapped her was about
half a month after that.
According to the doctor's judgment, it's possible that there is a few days difference in the baby's age,
but it's a full half month difference. It isn't possible."
Yun Shang thought quickly and then went on, "The Sun clan may want to use this to sow discord, but
Cao Yi may not really be fooled. Maybe what we see now is just a play presented by the Cao mansion.
Perhaps the Cao clan is thinking that Cao Yi and his wife have been married for more than twenty
years. If they divorce, I will most likely target Cao Yi's wife. In that way, they can pass on some
information to me through Cao Yi's wife... Maybe they will pass on some wrong news to mislead my
judgment. "
Qian Zhuo nodded, "It's possible. Then we just let them be?"
"Let them be." Yun Shang thought for a moment and went on, "I've told you before that we need to
break the rules and deal with the Cao mansion in a way they can't figure out."
Yun Shang tapped on the table with her fingers and then said, "Compared with Cao Yi, I want to do
something to Cao Han's wife more.
But not now." Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, "Now that they are going to make a scene, we just let
Cao Yi's wife and the Cao mansion break up completely."
Qian Zhuo's eyes lit up, "How can they completely break up?"
Yun Shang pursed her lips and then said, "Of course we will first promote Cao Yi's parents' in law, so
that the clan will stand on the opposite side of the Cao mansion.
The Cao clan is loyal to Xia Houjing. Then I will make Cao Yi's parents in law become a stumbling
block to the Cao clan."
