Chapter 9 Step by step
Zhou Qing, who was overly anxious and frightened, was stunned, her ears buzzed, and she didn't listen to a word, until Liu Shi was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped her hard, hitting her so that she lay on the ground in embarrassment.
She covered her hot right cheek, crying, tears fell like money, Liu gave her a look, lowered her head and stopped talking.
On the main seat, it was rare for the old lady to be so angry, looking at her coldly, beside her was Zhou Huan, who was sobbing softly, and the Lin family and the Qin family watched coldly, and their eyes were close to her one by one, stripping her naked.
She was disheartened, knelt down busily, kowtowed and admitted her mistake: "I know it's wrong, grandmother, I shouldn't have been so obsessed with this kind of trick, I won't dare to do it in the future!"
Zhou Huan suddenly interjected and choked up, drawing her attention away, she bit her lip, looked at Zhou Qing in disbelief, closed her eyes in pain, and held Rong Zhi's hand tightly.
"Back to the old lady, how can the eldest lady say that she is also the eldest sister of the second miss, but yesterday the eldest lady was scared by the second miss and trembled, and the second miss even bluntly said that the eldest lady is not worthy of wearing such good materials, and she is difficult to target everywhere, and her words and deeds are intolerable even to slaves and maids, let alone the eldest lady."
"You!" Zhou Qing glared back at her, and was about to scold, but remembered that she was the person who was dialed by the old lady, and it was the eyes that the old lady placed beside Zhou Huan, and swallowed the words again.
It was really a good show, the corners of Lin's mouth quickly rose to the sky, and he looked at Liu's Tieqing face with joy.
interjected at the right time: "Qing'er is also ruthless, she is ruthless to the flesh and blood of the family, where did the girl who was raised in the boudoir learn these tricks, she doesn't have the temperament of a concubine at all, poor Huan'er suffers."
The old lady, who had been silent, spoke slowly: "Daughter? Huan'er is the daughter of the Zhou Mansion. β
A sentence is like a boulder falling into a pool of water, causing layers of ripples.
"Grandmother......" Zhou Qing walked to the old lady on her knees and couldn't stop crying: "I really know ...... wrong"
"Until now, you are still only concerned about making amends to me, you hurt Huan'er, not me." The old lady picked up Nanmu beads and slowly fiddled: "Go back and reflect on it, copy hundreds of volumes of the Qingxin Sutra, and calm your grievances, Liu, you should also take care of it, don't mess up."
Liu's response: "It's the concubine's poor discipline."
"The granddaughter receives the punishment." She was still unwilling, and when she got up, she didn't forget to glare at Zhou Huan.
In the past, the old lady deliberately discussed with Zhou Shenyuan, in terms of appearance and character, Zhou Huan is far higher than Zhou Qing, rather than giving up Zhou Huan, it is better to cultivate well, and it will definitely help the Zhou family in the future.
The two deliberated for a long time and decided to give up their original thoughts.
A few days later, the news came from the Zhou Mansion that the concubine had been found and the guests were entertained.
Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, Rong Zhi took out a bead from the makeup, swayed the rouge on his lips with his fingertips, and helped Zhou Huan to get up.
Quietly stroking the jade bracelet on Hao's wrist, Zhou Huan lowered her eyes and chuckled, finally, it was not that she suffered in vain.
After a few days, her foot injury has improved a lot, but it still hurts badly when she lands, Rong Zhi carefully helped her through the corridor and walked to the flower hall in the front yard.
The people had already arrived, but there was no movement, and even the sound of the wind could be heard clearly, she subconsciously squeezed Rong Zhi's hand and approached step by step.
A eunuch-like man hurriedly bent down to meet him, his eyebrows and eyes were soft, and he looked at Zhou Huan quietly, and said with a smile: "Coincidentally, the slave is about to send someone to look for you."
The old lady also smiled and beckoned: "Huan'er, come here."
For some reason, Zhou Huan suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, she still walked over, with a faint smile, her eyes swept over the calm Liu and Zhou Qing, and her heart was beating.
The eunuch took out a holy decree, everyone knelt on the ground, and a feminine voice sounded in the huge flower hall: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, I heard that Zhou Huan, the eldest daughter of Zhou Shenyuan of the Hou Mansion, is gentle and virtuous, dignified in appearance, and specially gives marriage to Qi Yu, the king of Chu, and chooses a good day to complete the marriage, and admires thisββ"
What the? It's Qi Yu, the king of Chu again?
In this life, Zhou Huan did not resist marrying Qi Yu so much, and his identity would become his best knife.
Seeing that she was silent, the old lady and Zhou Shenyuan couldn't help but hold their breath, thinking that she was going to refuse marriage, they looked at each other and sweated coldly.
Zhou Huan hooked his lips and smiled: "The courtiers are grateful, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Behind her, Liu and Zhou Qing were surprised, didn't she know that King Chu was a fool? But fortunately, bringing her back was originally to marry the King of Chu for Zhou Qing, but now she can finally rest assured.
After receiving the holy decree, the eunuch smiled flatteringly: "The eldest lady looks good, and she is really a beautiful woman with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, and she is a good match."
"Thank you father-in-law for your praise."
The old lady came over and said with a smile: "Gongqitou, please, I have ordered someone to prepare a banquet for my father-in-law, and I also ask my father-in-law not to excuse himself."
"Yes, old lady." The eunuch smiled and followed his subordinates away.
Zhou Huan held the holy decree tightly and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the old lady thought she was sighing, turned around and patted her hand comfortingly: "This is a good family matter."
"The granddaughter understands. If you can marry the king of Chu, the Zhou family can also have more protection. β
She said it bluntly, spreading out all the thoughts of the old lady and Zhou Shenyuan and exposing them to the fine sun, seeing that she knew the general situation so well, both of them nodded with satisfaction.
handed over the holy decree to Rong Zhi to take it down, and before she was about to leave, her hand suddenly sank, and her clear voice was smiling: "Daughter-in-law!" Are you the king's daughter-in-law? β
With a sigh in his heart, Zhou Huan gathered the stunned in his eyes, looked back and smiled, looking at the man who only had one side, it was indeed him, his eyebrows and eyes were warm and clear, and his appearance was handsome, exactly the same as what she looked before she died.
Qi Yu looked at her and smiled, took two steps closer, couldn't wait to be satisfied with her, and directly took her hand: "You are so fragrant."
Zhou Huan's face turned red and struggled slightly: "Your Highness, men and women don't kiss, I bother you to let go."
"Why loose? You are the daughter-in-law of this king, what is wrong with taking you by the hand? My father said, if you marry me, you ......"
The eunuch accompanying him hurriedly coughed twice to interrupt Qi Yu's remaining words, and quietly reminded: "Your Highness, the girl has not passed the door yet, so she should always be taboo."
"Okay." He reluctantly let go of his hand, blinked, and looked at Zhou Huan's appearance carefully, he stared at him for a long time, Zhou Huan was a little uncomfortable, lowered his eyes, and couldn't help but look at him.
Looking at each other, Qi Yu smiled at her, his clean eyes crushing countless stars.
He took out a paper bag from his arms, turned his back to the eunuch, stuffed it into Zhou Huan's hand, and made a silent gesture at her: "This is what I secretly hidden, give it to you, don't be discovered, they won't let me eat more."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Shhhh Be quiet! β
