"Mother, don't beg her, she treats you like this, and she tries to ...... father."

"Listen to what she said!" Old Madam Zhu's eyes narrowed sharply, and she looked at Zhu Ying with pain, "I raised you with hard work, and arranged everything for you, and this is how you repay my grandmother?"

Mrs. Zhu said this, she was already coercing Entu, as a grandmother, Mrs. Zhu said these words, which made Zhou very surprised, she really didn't want to refute Mrs. Zhu face to face, after all, no matter who it was, it would be a little embarrassing to be caught in such a thing, she hurriedly put away her emotions, and hurriedly said goodbye: "Since there is something at my cousin's house, I will leave." ”

Old Madam Zhu didn't even look at Zhou, she didn't care about these things at all at this time, her attention was on Zhu Yu's mother and daughter, and she made a faint hum, and then passed perfunctorily.

Xie Shuangyun looked very angry, her mother came over, no one came to greet her, there were no elders who sent her mother out, and Mrs. Zhu protected Zhu Ying, only knowing that she was apologizing in her mouth, but in fact she didn't say anything at all.

She turned around angrily to send Zhou out, and Zhou told her all the way on the road: " When you go back for a while, don't put on a face, I see that Mrs. Zhu's mood is not quite right these days, you be careful not to bump into it, and another point is that you get along with Zhu Jin, the princess, you remember that no matter how Zhu Ying and the four princes are, it has nothing to do with you and Brother Bi'er, now that your father-in-law is gone, Brother Bi'er must be worried, whether he is in the clan or in Yunfu City, it is up to Brother Bi'er to make his own ideas, don't get too involved, save him from complaining about you in the future. ”

"But, mother, I really don't want to follow them back to Qinghe County, you have also seen it, Mrs. Zhu's temperament has changed greatly, even you dare to ignore it, let alone me, I am just a junior, if I have to go to her every day to settle down in the morning and dusk, I will have to suffer......"

"Shut up!" Zhou couldn't help but look around as he listened to his daughter's words, making sure that no one was listening, so he said word by word, " Mrs. Zhu is suddenly widowed when she is old, and it is normal for her to be unstable, you don't have to make excuses for this, you need to know one thing, you are a daughter-in-law in the Zhu family, and you have to work hard to be a daughter-in-law, and you can't complain at all, now Mrs. Zhu can be on the bar with Zhu Jin, the princess, which means that even Zhu Jin, the princess, is not so important in her eyes, if you don't restrain yourself, beware of your own hard life!"

Zhou's words were full of worries about Xie Shuangyun, and when she thought that her daughter would have a very difficult life in the future, she panicked in her heart.

Xie Shuangyun also knew what time it was, and it was rare that she obediently did not refute Zhou, and after sending Zhou out of the Hanging Flower Gate, she stood on the Hanging Flower Gate for a while, and went through today's events in her mind, and then walked back slowly.

It's just that she hasn't walked back yet, Zhu Jin ran out head-on, her face was full of tears and grievances, Xie Shuangyun was just about to ask a few words, Zhu Jin wiped her shoulders and ran away, looking at Xie Shuangyun's face of doubt.

"Sister Jin'er, you wait a while!" Mrs. Zhu followed closely behind, for fear that her daughter would not be able to think of a short time for a while, and she did not expect that the old lady would say such a thing in the end, which made her frightened for the first time as a daughter-in-law.

Xie Shuangyun looked inexplicable, only knowing that Zhu Yu and Mrs. Zhu must have had a big fight, otherwise they wouldn't have run out like this, and Mrs. Zhu wouldn't have been so anxious.

Walking back quickly, Xie Shuangyun raised her eyes and saw several subordinates converging Zhu Yu's body into the thin coffin, Zhu Bi and Zhu Xuan, who came at an unknown time, knelt in front of the coffin, she hurriedly walked to Zhu Bi's side and knelt down.

Zhu Bi's hand pressed on his knee, pressing hard a little bit, as if he was trying to endure something.

Xie Shuangyun saw it, couldn't help but stretch out her hand, took the loose sleeves to cover the palm of Zhu Bi's hand, and gently stroked Zhu Bi's slightly trembling hand, although she didn't know what was going on, but seeing Zhu Bi's frustrated and implied anger, Xie Shuangyun concluded that it would not be a good thing.

As soon as Zhu Yu ran to the Hanging Flower Gate, she was chased by Mrs. Zhu, she dragged Zhu Ying back, and said breathlessly: "Sister Jin...... You...... Come with your mother...... My mother has something to say...... You ......" She couldn't stop panting and dragged Zhu Ji into the small pavilion, and the strength was so great that Zhu Ji couldn't break free at all.

"Mother, don't persuade me, I've already decided, since my grandmother has such a mind, I will fulfill her!"

"You fool!" Mrs. Zhu dragged Zhu Yu into the small pavilion, took a few breaths of breath, and let the people around her stay outside, then turned her face to Zhu Ji and said, "That's your husband, that's your home, why should you let her call the shots?" Even if it is the queen mother, the lady concubine has never been like this, whether it is a side concubine or a concubine, the four princes are willing to be themselves, and you want to be happy, the woman you don't like can't say anything, you remember this sentence of the mother, no matter who wants to be the master for you in the future, they are not qualified, you don't listen to your grandmother's nonsense here......"

"Mother!" Zhu Ji looked depressed and melancholy, she was very sad, she didn't expect her grandmother to be like that, she pointed at her nose and scolded her like that, she was afraid that she would never forget it in her life, "Grandmother, I used to think that my grandmother was too partial to the two brothers, but I didn't expect it to be so partial, mother, I don't want to be this princess, I want to be reconciled with the fourth prince, I don't want to, I ...... Mother, I've had such a hard time!"

Zhu Yu thought of the previous days, tears couldn't help but fall, she never thought that she would retreat and have such a difficult day, the days she had thought about before were getting farther and farther away from her, even the years spent in the boudoir, she was already looking at the things of the previous life, she sometimes felt that she was old, looking at the little lady with flowers and branches, there was a sense of vicissitudes in her heart.

Mrs. Zhu listened to her daughter's terrible cry, her heart was about to break, she hurriedly hugged Zhu Ying's body, and gently patted her daughter's back as she did when she was a child.

"Don't cry, Sister Yu'er, my mother knows that you are bitter in your heart, how easy has my mother been over the years? But you remember your father's words, you and the four princes will go back to Jiangnan immediately after your father is buried, no matter what the four princes say or do, you must persuade him to let him go to Jiangnan with you, so that your life will be worry-free, remember your father's words, and the matter of the side concubine, don't be afraid, your mother will arrange it, and your mother will let the old lady dispel this idea!"

The resolute look on Mrs. Zhu's face made the strings in Zhu Yu's heart loosen suddenly, and she couldn't stop nodding.

……

"Zhu Yu is dead?" Chu Shaoyuan was putting Xia Mingche's trip to Huguang on the agenda of the Ministry of Industry, and when he heard such news, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Really, it's cheap!"

Zhao Guangyao smiled, "Who said it wasn't, Zhu Yu's death is really ...... Bring a game of chess to life!"

"I'm afraid that Old Madam Zhu won't think so," Xia Mingche, who had just come in from outside, had just returned from the funeral of the Zhu family at this time, and there was still an obvious look of tiredness on his face, "The dispute between Old Madam Zhu and the fourth princess, I don't know if the prince has heard of it?"

In this matter, Chu Shaoyuan said that he really didn't know very well, he only knew what the coffin was for, but people die greatly, no matter what kind of wood they put in, they will die, even if they are put in wood worth thousands of gold, people can't survive.

It is said that Mrs. Zhu refused to let Mr. Zhu use golden silk nanmu, so the two had a dispute, but the fourth princess had the same temperament as a person, and she could actually make trouble with Mrs. Zhu, which is really surprising. ”

These are all things that Xia Mingche said when he went to the funeral, Xie Shuangyun was not happy in the Zhu family at this time, because his mother Zhou mentioned it before, Mrs. Zhu looked at Xie Shuangyun and was not right, that look like it was a mistake to marry Xie Shuangyun and come back to be a granddaughter-in-law, which forced Xie Shuangyun to tears, especially when he saw his own relatives, the sense of grievance could no longer be hidden.

Xia Mingche comforted Xie Shuangyun for a while before he calmed the person, and when he went to the mourning hall to offer incense, he deliberately glanced at Old Madam Zhu, and found that Old Madam Zhu's face did not fluctuate at all, and it did not look like a dead son at all, which made him particularly surprised.

Chu Shaoyuan sneered: "What's so strange about this, after all, it's her father, if your own father is treated like this, it is estimated that you will not be so easy to get this matter over, it is easy to understand, just one point, Old Madam Zhu must have something else in her heart, otherwise she will not be angry with Zhu Xuan, the Zhu family has always been the head of the four princes, and now Zhu Bi and Zhu Xuan are unlikely to take a step further in their careers, and Old Madam Zhu is bound to be anxious, and she must be walking up and down at this time." ”

In fact, as long as you keep an eye on Old Madam Zhu's every move, you can know what will happen to the Zhu family in the future.

"It's just that if Mrs. Zhu begged the queen mother and let the emperor make a will to win love, even if the Zhu family doesn't have a marquis like Zhu Yu, it doesn't matter. Zhao Guangyao looked far away, he touched his chin, thought about it again and again, and felt that this possibility was very high, "After all, the Zhu family is the emperor's foreign family, and the emperor has not used the Zhu family all these years, so he must also owe the Zhu family a debt to it." ”

At the beginning, the relatives were either Ning Guogong or the Marquis of Anbei, and now the emperor's foreign family has a Marquis of Wenchang, this marquis has fallen on Zhu Xuan's body, then Zhu Xuan will inevitably receive an errand, although Zhu Ling is now a concubine, but his face as a concubine is dull, and the top of his head is green, and the emperor feels that the royal family is dignified, and he will have some apologies for Zhu Xuan in his heart.

And whether this apology will be manifested in Zhu Ling's career in the end, no one can say.

"Win love? He is a small member of the Ministry of Rites, what kind of love does he take? Zhu Bi too, can't the Ministry of Industry turn without Zhu Bi? If they dare to let their father make a will to take away love, then they are looking for death!"

The cold light in Chu Shaoyuan's eyes suddenly bloomed, and the few people who watched it were cold.

If the Zhu family retreats like this, maybe there will be a chance to turn the tables in the future, but if they are unwilling to keep making trouble, Chu Shaoyuan has a way to take care of their family.

"Maybe Old Madam Zhu can really make it," Xia Mingche couldn't help but shake his head, "When I first came out of the Zhu family, I heard that Old Madam Zhu handed over a sign and entered the palace. ”

Chu Shaoyuan smiled: "Presumably, Empress Dowager Zhu will definitely be sad for a while." ”

……

Empress Dowager Zhu was wiping her tears with Mrs. Zhu at this moment, she couldn't understand how the Zhu family could come out with so much chaos in just a few days, and her brother was clearly tough, not to mention that her nephew was still so healthy.

"That kid is overly sad, and the people in the house don't look at it, even if he is not as clever as the two brothers under his knees, but he is also a life!"

Empress Dowager Zhu has never known much about her nephew, she just listened to Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu's words, and also knew some things before, so she didn't like Zhu Yu, but she was not as disgusted as Mrs. Zhu, she was the daughter of the Zhu family, she had a responsibility to the Zhu family, she naturally hoped that the Zhu family would become more and more prosperous in the future, but as soon as Zhu Yu died at this time, the future of the children of the Zhu family would be a little dangerous.

"Don't mention him, his child is always so preoccupied, my mother can't help it, let alone others, what I'm worried about now is the future of the two brothers, the queen mother also knows that the two brothers are not easy, and now it's even worse, I want to ask the mother for a grace ......"

"Sister-in-law doesn't say that the mourning family knows," Empress Dowager Zhu interrupted Mrs. Zhu's words, her voice was heavy, "It's just that the imperial court has the law of the imperial court, even if the mourning family is reluctant in their hearts, there is no way, you don't know yet, after the emperor heard about this matter, he immediately asked people to draft the decree, and it is estimated that the eunuch who passed the decree should have arrived at the Zhu family." ”

When Mrs. Zhu heard this, her face changed greatly: "Dare to ask the Queen Mother, what kind of will is it?"

The expression on Empress Dowager Zhu's face was a little complicated, and her eyes stared at Mrs. Zhu for a long time before she said slowly: "The emperor said that the Zhu family has been a little too bad in the past few years, so he let Brother Zhu inherit the title, and then gave him a thousand hectares of good land, just in Qinghe County, saving a few brothers to live beyond their means after returning to Qinghe, the emperor also said that after the removal of the service in the future, he will arrange a good errand for the two brothers, and the sister-in-law will relax." ”

Empress Dowager Zhu's words made Mrs. Zhu's eyes widen in surprise.
