Spring Drunk Chang'an

Liu Wenrui winked at Liu Changan.

Liu Changan bit his lip. He didn't want to go out with him, but he was really curious about what he wanted to do.

"Madam, let me see the second young master off!" She rolled her eyes and replied in a low voice.

Song frowned, unwilling to refuse. Seeing this, Liu Changan quickly said, "I'll take the Second Young Master to the gate and come back."

At that distance, Song could see through the window that there were maids and old women working in the yard.

There were eyes everywhere, so Liu Wenrui didn't dare to do anything.

"Okay, go ahead." Song agreed.

Liu Changan bowed slightly and extended his hand, "Second Young Master, please!"

Liu Wenrui bowed to Song and took his leave. The two of them walked out of the main house and walked along the stone road towards the gate of the courtyard.

Liu Changan always had a sarcastic smile on his face, and he looked at him with a slight frown...

Liu Wenrui - a lustful devil. Look at your character. Even your own mother doesn't want to believe you. She's worried when the maid sends you off.

"Don't look at me with such disgusting eyes, or I'll dig out your eyes!" Liu Wenrui said in a deep voice, with a flash of cruelty in his peach blossom eyes.

"Second Young Master, don't be so arrogant. Madam is watching us!" Liu Chang'an was not afraid at all and looked towards the main courtyard.

Liu Wenrui turned around and saw that the window of the main house was open. Song was standing by the window. When she saw him turn around, she smiled and waved at him.

His face suddenly darkened.

"You can do it, Liu Changan. You use sweet words to coax my mother and make her act like a fool!" Liu Wenrui sneered, his face full of dissatisfaction.

Liu Changan frowned and tilted his head, "Second Young Master, Madam is your biological mother!"

How can you call her 'stupid'?

"I need you to remind me!" Liu Wenrui waved his hand and then said impatiently, "Alright, let's stop talking about those useless things. Liu Changan, I called you out here because I have something to ask you."

Liu Changan, "What's the matter?"

"The Autumn Examination is coming soon. Judging from Liu Wenbai's attitude, if he passes..." Liu Wenrui paused, gritting his teeth unwillingly, "I'm afraid his family won't give up on him so easily!"

"Even if he's a traitor."

The child-swap incident was originally done by Liu Xiu. No matter what, he was definitely biased towards Liu Wenbai. Liu Wenrui never thought of using him to "solve" the problem. His original intention was to report the matter to Madam Lai and the clan members.

The Liu family naturally has its own clan, with nine branches, including the legitimate branch, illegitimate branch, and side branch, with a total of more than 300 people. Liu Xiu, as the Duke of Ningguo, is the patriarch of the Liu family.

But we can't cover the sky with one hand.

The replacement of the illegitimate child with the legitimate child is definitely a big deal for the clan - after all, if nothing unexpected happens, Liu Xiu's eldest son will be the future head of the Liu clan!

but……

"I don't have enough evidence right now, and I haven't found anyone to expose the matter. But Liu Wenbai is about to take the imperial examination."

"If he wins the first or second place in the imperial examination, he will have a promising future. Even if I expose the truth, I'm afraid the clan would rather cover it up."

Liu Wenrui clenched his fists, his face distorted.

The person who exposed the exchange between Liu Wenbai and Liu Yu... His father would not let him off easily. Liu Wenrui thought about it again and again. He couldn't do it himself, so he dug a hole in the door and found someone to help.

Not found yet.

so! !

"We can't let Liu Wenbai pass the exam!!"

"Second Young Master, the examination hall is right at the Qianqing Gate. Liu Wenbai is studying behind closed doors. The Duke's Mansion pampers him and worships him. The entire mansion has to make way for him..." Liu Changan paused and glanced at him lightly, "Why don't you let him take the exam?"

Liu Wenrui's eyes darkened, and he immediately said, "Can you find a way to make my mother do something?"

That’s my biological mother. It’s not much harder to touch Liu Wenbai than to eat.

"Let Madam do it? Are you crazy?" Liu Chang'an covered his lips, pretending to be stunned. "Madam, you don't know anything now?"

"She felt that Liu Wenbai was her son, so how could she possibly do that?"

"Uh!" Liu Wenrui frowned.

Liu Changan looked at him suspiciously for a long moment, then suddenly sighed softly, "Second Young Master, I saw you just now meeting Madam. Did you intend to tell her the truth?"

"That's fine too. The lady was betrayed by her husband, and her biological child was exchanged. She raised her rival's child and loved him like a treasure. It's really pitiful to think about it. It's time for her to know the truth."

"That would be beneficial to you too..."

The Song family wanted to divorce with their children, but the Duke of Song and the Crown Prince also wanted to take Liu Wenrui away safely, and for this purpose, they did not hesitate to break his legs.

However, if you want to break a person's leg to the point where he seems hopelessly lame, you can still save him.

It’s actually not that easy.

But if Liu Wenrui could cooperate...

Liu Changan looked at him with bright eyes, "Do you need me to testify for you and tell Madam the truth?"

"I can help you!"

"No!!" Before she could finish her words, Liu Wenrui shouted, his face changing drastically as he stopped her, "Mother doesn't need to know good things!"

"Don't tell her!!"

"Why?" Liu Changan's eyes darkened and he looked at him straight.

"This..." Liu Wenrui paused, his face drooping, and he did not respond to Liu Changan's gaze.

he!

Guilty!

As a son, he understood the Song family's temper too well. His mother was a gentle person, strict with herself but lenient with others. She believed in the saying, "No one is perfect. It is a virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them." She seemed soft and had no temper, but in fact...

The Song family is very stubborn.

Just like when she took a fancy to Liu Xiu and dared to tell her parents directly that she would definitely marry him, she is a person who will not turn back until she hits a wall, and once she has chosen a path, she will stick to it until the end.

She has great patience, but if something exceeds her tolerance, she will decisively turn her back and never look back.

Liu Wenrui felt that the child exchange was beyond the Song family's "tolerance".

If he dared to tell the Song family about this matter, the Song family would never weigh the pros and cons and interests like he did, but would resolutely make a big fuss.

even……

She might get divorced.

How can that work?

Not to mention his parents' divorce, which would bring him a bad reputation. Just think about how the royal family would dislike it, his grandmother would definitely blame him, his father would hate him for exposing him, and he would lose the support of his maternal grandparents.

My father will remarry and give birth to another legitimate son.

Didn’t he lose both his mother and his army?

"Liu Changan, my mother must never know about Liu Yu's affairs. If you dare to leak the news, I will not forgive you!"

"Do you understand?"

Liu Wenrui warned sternly.

He thought of everything.

Only……

He didn't want to suffer the pain of his biological brother Liu Yu and the grievances of his biological mother Song.

"I understand, Second Young Master, don't worry, I understand too well!"

Liu Changan stared at him straight for a moment, then sneered, her eyes revealing deep irony. She said, "I told you this because I believe you will do your best."

"I won't say anything."

Liu Wenrui frowned, looking at her mocking expression. He felt a little suspicious, but he couldn't find any evidence. He could only say, "It's good that you know."

"Don't forget, your whole family are servants in this mansion!"

"It's easier for me to deal with you than to crush an ant."
