Lady Su's Revenge Chapter 249

Chapter 249 Fighting Back
After Prime Minister Tang finished his words, it was silent in the front hall. Everybody was thinking without a word.

Seeing Prime Minister Tang kneeling on the floor sincerely, Su Li was lost in thought.

Tang Lei wasn't favored by Prime Minister Tang at all, so he became coward. Nobody in the Tang Mansion cared about him when he had lived in the Ling Mansion for several months.

But in this situation, there was no need for Prime Minister Tang to tell lies.

What Su Li thought must be thought by Ling Li and Ling Qinglan. After they talked for a while, Ling Qinglan asked,

“Sir Tang, you said that you love your first grandson, but I know that he has never been favored since he was a child without an investigation. He was even abandoned. Only your second grandson is cultivated carefully and regarded as the successor of the Tang Family in the future. Do you think that's contradictory?”

“Hha…”

Prime Minister Tang smiled without astonishment and said, “What you said makes me relaxed. You didn't find something wrong, so did the royal family. I abandoned Lei as possible as I could because I wanted him to survive in the future.”

“May I ask whether your wife is still alive?”

Su Li suddenly said with a pleasant fake voice. The image of a beautiful lady occurred in Prime Minister Tang's mind.

“You are so polite, which makes me amazed.”

It seemed that Prime Minister Tang explained everything and felt relieved. He talked so frankly,

“Your guess is right. The health of my wife and daughter-in-law has been worse and worse since that year. Finally they were all gone. Then Dongfang Xiao sent me several women to be my new wife. I felt doubtful at that time but didn't think about it deeply. So I accepted them. I yielded again.”

“Later Tang Ping was born, so Lei's condition was worse and worse. I couldn't accompany him all the time. I had to pay less attention to make him survive.”

Su Li sneered, “Sir Tang was so innocent… You thought that Dongfang Xiao would let you go because you stepped back?”

Prime Minister Tang was shocked. He asked, “What do you… mean?”

“It's so clear that you're cheating yourself.”

Looking at Su Li's side face affectionately, Ling Li said with a cold tone, “Your backyard has been consumed badly by Dongfang Xiao. Even though some of your sons are still alive, they are not officials in the imperial court. As long as you die, your wife will damage your Tang Family at once.”

“It's impossible. After all, they are members of the Tang Family!” Prime Minister Tang didn't believe it, so he stood up to refute Ling Li. His neck got red for his anger.

“So, Sir Tang, you are so innocent.”

Ling Li waved his hand impatiently and pulled Su Li to go out. He said coldly, “This is the last time that I remind you. Your first grandson has been poisoned for years, which leads to his obesity and slow reaction. Take care, sir.”

After that, Ling Li and Su Li returned to the imperial carriage.

Prime Minister Tang was still in shock. Ling Qinglan took a few steps outside. He turned around and said,

“Sir, don't worry about if someone knows this matter. People living around the Tang Mansion are all in a deep sleep, so they won't wake up in six hours in spite of a possible explosion. You only spent more than two hours. So, you don't have fear of attacks from behind.”

Prime Minister Tang stared at the men of the Yinmo Cult who retreated silently and soon disappeared in the empty street.

“Master!”

“Master, are you okay?”

A group of people came into the backyard and talked curiously. Prime Minister Tang looked at his wife, who was twenty years younger than him, and said nothing.

Though the madam was more than forty years old, she looked very young. She was Tang Ping's mother, Dongfang Juan.

“Master, I heard that there were thieves in the mansion. They were so bold to steal something in the Prime Minister Tang's Mansion!”

Dongfang Juan was angry, but what she said made Prime Minister Tang confused.

They did see the Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult just now, but they remembered nothing now.

After all, Prime Minister Tang was experienced at such an age. Although he was confused, he pretended that nothing had happened and nodded slightly, “The thieves escaped, but nothing was lost. Go back to sleep.”

“Yes, Master.”

As the crowd dispersed, Tang Ping looked at Tang Lei, who was still in a trance, and sneered in his heart. He said with concern, “Grandpa, take a rest earlier.”

Prime Minister Tang shook his head, “It's almost the time to go to the palace. I'll have a rest after I come back. You should have a rest now because you still grow at your age.”

Tang Ping was satisfied with Prime Minister Tang's concern. He glanced at Tang Lei triumphantly and left the hall.

After Tang Ping left, there was only Tang Lei in the hall.Read more chapter on vi pnovel. com

Tang Lei was afraid to meet his grandpa alone. He bowed his head like a fatty ostrich.

Prime Minister Tang felt sad when he saw his grandson. But he pretended to scold unhappily, “Bastard! You haven't gone back recently. Do you still care about this family?!”

The sudden reprimand made Tang Lei feel wronged. He said, “I haven't…”

“You are still disguising it.”

Prime Minister Tang grabbed Tang Lei's ear and went to the study.

“Grandpa, it hurts…”

Seeing this scene, the maid who peeped outside the door laughed and hurriedly left the hall to the backyard.

In the bright study, Tang Lei knelt gingerly on the ground.

Prime Minister Tang sat in the chair silently and was surprised that the Yinmo Cult could erase memories.

He finally understood what Qinghu said. “You don't have fear of attacks from behind.” He had been worried that Dongfang Juan would report to the royal family secretly. Now it seemed impossible.

“Grandpa?”

After kneeling for a long time, Tang Lei felt so numb that he couldn't help asking, “Grandpa, the person who came tonight was Yin…”

“Stop!”

Prime Minister Tang looked at Tang Lei surprisingly. Did the memory erasing fail? The men of Yinmo Cult were so meticulous that they shouldn't have missed something.

Tang Lei covered his mouth with his hands, without any words again. He was frightened by the tone.

“Follow me!”

Prime Minister Tang sighed and came into the bedroom. Then Tang Lei followed him uneasily and saw him switch a button. An entrance to a secret room appeared in the place where a bookcase was placed.

Tang Lei was surprised at that moment. Why was there such a place in Grandpa's bedroom?

“Come in!”

Prime Minister Tang said. Tang Lei replied quickly and came into the room. Because the door was too narrow, he almost squeezed in.

Prime Minister Tang shook his head. He knew the secret of his obesity. Certainly, he would not blame him as before.

After Tang Lei came in, Prime Minister Tang turned the button so that the bookcase was shut down quietly. At the same time, Prime Minister Tang lit the oil lamp so that the room would not be too dark.

“Grandpa, where are we?”

Tang Lei was amazed to discover that his grandpa became kind. Grandpa once only looked at Tang Ping lovingly.

“Lei, you are an adult now. There're many things that I will tell you.” Prime Minister Tang sighed and talked about the secret in his heart for years.

Hearing that, Tang Lei felt extremely surprised.

Did Grandpa take wrong medicine? Was he telling a story? It sounded impossible.

However, when he heard that his mother and grandmother died inexplicably one after another, his face became gloomy finally. Then he kept silent for a long time.

“Lei, I am useless. I don't know when the royal family will kill me, but you are the only hope for our family. You must live well.”

Prime Minister Tang patted his grandson on the fatty shoulder and said, “Tonight, I will take you to see the doctor. The Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult didn't erase your memory. I realized that he had known I would take you to be detoxified. So, things are much easier today.”

“Grandpa, I am okay.”

Tang Lei giggled in a pitiful way, “I have already found the doctor who can detoxify me.”

“What?”

Prime Minister Tang was amazed to know that he was the last one to know.

“Grandpa, I feel shameful to misunderstand you before.”

Tang Lei had become smarter since Su Li suppressed the toxin in his body. He thought a lot during this period and was no longer silly as before.

“It is my own body. I could feel it if I were to die in spite of my dullness.”

Thinking of the beautiful figure in the Affiliated School of the National Academy, Tang Lei looked grateful. He said, “A few months ago, I felt that my physical strength weakened sharply to the extent that I would gasp for breath after a few steps. Later, the toxin was suppressed by an elixir from a doctor coincidentally.”

“I had been curious about why the doctor failed to detoxify me. Later I realized that she was afraid that others killed me.”

Then Tang Lei smiled and said breezily, “Grandpa, I don't understand a lot of things, but Brother Li once told me that if someone dared to bully me, I must fight back even if I would die! Since the Dongfang Family is a demon, why don't we seek refuge with the Yinmo Cult?”
