Chapter Ninety-Five: Captivity

Liu said: "We just came to visit my father, if it is inconvenient, we can also leave." ”

"What's inconvenient? Nothing! The old man is looking forward to it! The eldest lady hurriedly said, and as she spoke, she also gave Zhao Tingxu a warning look.

The people went in and went to the main room.

The Zhao family has also changed a lot, this is not a change in appearance, but a kind of breath, everywhere reveals a sense of dilapidation, and the people who come and go are also lifeless, and there is a look of confusion between their eyebrows.

The subordinate is like this because of the influence of the master, which shows the current situation of the entire Zhao family.

Zhao Dexiu was lying on the hospital bed, while Mrs. Zhao was also serving strongly.

When Mrs. Zhao saw Zhao Tingshan coming, she hurriedly said to Zhao Dexiu: "Old man, open your eyes and take a look, the Tingshan you were looking forward to is back." ”

Zhao Dexiu opened his eyes with great difficulty, and when he saw Zhao Tingshan, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand at Zhao Tingshan with difficulty, and wanted to catch Zhao Tingshan, Zhao Siyan touched Zhao Wenxi, and Zhao Wenxi ran over and grabbed Zhao Dexiu.

Zhao Tingshan stopped, and then said: "Yanyan has brought a lot of good medicinal materials, some of which are still the private collections of the prince of the world, and I will let the doctor use them for you later." ”

Zhao Dexiu's expression froze, the prince, his granddaughter is the princess, but now this scenery has nothing to do with their Zhao family.

As soon as Zhao Dexiu was about to say something, he coughed violently, and Chen Wanying walked in with the medicine.

Chen Wanying, like Zhao Qingru, is now a widow and is dressed very plainly. And unlike the previous plain and elegant, now her eyes are peaceful, and her temperament has also precipitated, but she is a little more peaceful than before.

Zhao Tingshan took the opportunity to say: "Let's drink the medicine first." Then he stood aside with his hands tied, and did not come forward.

Seeing Zhao Tingshan's performance, Mrs. Zhao's face sank: "Okay, now I can't count on you at all, right?" I am your mother, and I gave birth to you in October, and you want to hate us for the rest of your life because of a little misunderstanding? ”

"I don't hold a grudge, since the Zhao family doesn't want to recognize me, it's right to treat me as if they didn't give birth to me." Zhao Tingshan said coldly.

Old Mrs. Zhao's tears fell at that time, "You are my son, how can I disown you?" She said sadly: "I know what happened that day, it hurt your heart, my mother made a compensity for you, do you still have to hate my mother?" ”

As she spoke, she stood up and wanted to salute Zhao Tingshan.

The eldest lady didn't go to help Mrs. Zhao, but said: "The events of the day are just an expedient measure, in fact, the second brother regretted it after you left, and wanted to get you back, second brother, we are all a family, we can't write two Zhao characters in one stroke, just go home!" ”

Zhao Siyan frowned, and was about to speak, but Chen Wanying interrupted Mrs. Zhao's words: "Grandmother, let's let my grandfather drink medicine first." ”

In the past, Chen Wanying was Mrs. Zhao's favorite granddaughter, and she was equal to Zhao Siyin, but since Chen Wanying was abandoned and returned home, Mrs. Zhao has faded towards her.

Old Mrs. Zhao glared at her unhappily: "Let your second uncle go to serve your grandfather to drink medicine, he is his father, he can't ignore him!" ”

Zhao Tingshan had no choice but to take a step forward, take the medicine bowl, and personally feed Zhao Dexiu the medicine.

Zhao Dexiu refused to drink, he held Zhao Tingshan's wrist tightly, and a pair of old and cloudy eyes stared at him deadly.

"You promise me, come back, go back to Zhao's house." Zhao Dexiu said with difficulty.

A hint of mockery flashed in Zhao Siyan's eyes, and Zhao Dexiu said to return to Zhao's house, but this is no longer Zhao Tingshan's home.

Zhao Tingshan hesitated, instinctively wanted to look at his daughter, he regretted a little, and did not discuss countermeasures with his daughter before coming.

In fact, there is no countermeasure to this matter at all, and the word filial piety has crushed people to death since ancient times.

Mrs. Zhao immediately said: "Second child, I am your mother, do you want my mother to kneel down and beg you!" ”

Zhao Dexiu also held his hand tightly, and both of them looked teary-eyed.

Zhao Tingxu said: "Second brother, we are all a family, how can there be an overnight feud?" Dad is seriously ill now, you can agree, maybe when Dad is happy, this disease will be cured? ”

This is as if Zhao Tingshan did not agree, and if Zhao Dexiu had three longs and two shorts, it would be Zhao Tingshan's harm.

Zhao Tingshan was in a dilemma, and the old lady Zhao had already stood up and was about to kneel to Zhao Tingshan.

Zhao Tingshan hurriedly helped her and gritted his teeth: "I ......"

"Dad," Zhao Siyan interrupted Zhao Tingshan's words, and looked at Mrs. Zhao: "Old lady, don't blame my father, my father is actually doing this for the good of the Zhao family." ”

Old Lady Zhao looked at Zhao Siyan in confusion.

Zhao Siyan said: "You also know that now I am the princess of King Yi, but the emperor has just issued an order to reprimand the prince, and the prince has also left Beijing, maybe when the emperor will send someone to arrest the prince, as my father's daughter, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the responsibility." It just so happens that my father has left the Zhao family, and it will not affect our Zhao family, but if my father returns to the Zhao family, I am afraid that it will affect others in the future. ”

Old Lady Zhao's face changed suddenly, and even Zhao Dexiu let go of his hand.

The eldest lady and Zhao Tingxu glanced at each other, and both of them saw a look of hesitation in each other's eyes.

It is almost known that King Yi wants to rebel, and he is almost about to tear his face, if this is successful, it will be endless glory and wealth. But once it fails, it will be connected to the nine clans.

Zhao Siyan is Li Junze's concubine, and she can't leave the relationship no matter what.

Looking at their stiff expressions, Zhao Tingshan understood that they let him go home not because of any family, but because he could bring benefits to the Zhao family now.

But now that they know, not only can they not bring benefits to the Zhao family, but they may also affect them, so he is naturally not uncommon.

A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Tingshan's mouth, he already knew what his family was like, but he still inevitably felt cold.

Zhao Tingshan said lightly: "The water that spilled out of the words I said, I said from the day I left the Zhao family that I would never return to the Zhao family in this life, and I am not a member of the Zhao family, so you naturally don't have to worry about me affecting you!" ”

After Zhao Tingshan finished speaking, he stood up, "Since I have already visited, I will leave first, Old Man Zhao, take care of your body!" ”

After Zhao Tingshan finished speaking, he was about to go out.

Zhao Siyan and the Liu family were relieved, as long as they didn't go back to the Zhao family.

Zhao Siyin suddenly appeared outside the door, she was still dressed brightly and movingly, even if she was in a bad situation now, she couldn't let her bow her head.

Zhao Siyin's eyes fell on Zhao Siyan's face, and she said with a smile: "This is really a distinguished guest, what?" This is leaving? ”

Zhao Siyan frowned slightly, she felt that something was wrong with Zhao Siyin's tone, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

She glanced at Zhao Tingshan.

Zhao Tingshan also noticed something unusual, this ability was an instinct he had cultivated by fighting on the battlefield.

Zhao Tingshan took the lead in walking out, he was an elder and did not take Zhao Siyin in his eyes.

Zhao Siyin stood at the door, motionless, blocking his way.

Zhao Tingshan sneered, and suddenly, a team of guards appeared behind Zhao Siyin, each dressed in black, staring at Zhao Tingshan with eyes like torches.

Zhao Tingshan's face suddenly sank, "Zhao Siyin!" What do you want? ”

"Second uncle, don't worry, since you're back, stay a little longer, why are you in such a hurry?" Zhao Siyin said slowly: "Grandfather and grandmother have been looking forward to the second uncle's return, and my grandfather is still sick, so I naturally want to share the worries of the elders and leave the second uncle to live for a longer time." ”

It's to force them to stay!

Zhao Tingshan stared at her coldly: "Keep me?" Just you, people? ”

Zhao Siyin said generously: "I know the second uncle's ability, but no matter how powerful you are, second uncle, it is impossible to break out with the second aunt and sister Siyan, right?" After all, the sword has no eyes, if there is a mistake, no wonder the niece! ”

Zhao Tingshan was really not sure to break out with his wife and daughter, he was so angry that his teeth itched, he didn't expect Zhao Siyin to come to this hand.

He turned his head and looked at Mrs. Zhao, "This is also what Mother means?" ”

Mrs. Zhao was also stunned at this time, she didn't expect Zhao Siyin to come to this hand, she looked at Zhao Siyin in a little panic and said, "You, what are you doing here?" Siyin, let your second uncle leave! Also, who are these people? How did you get into the house? ”

Mrs. Zhao didn't even know!

Zhao Siyan frowned, she didn't expect Zhao Siyin to be so bold and dare to do it in the Zhao family!

Zhao Siyin smiled slightly, "Grandmother, you rest for a while, and then come to you to ask for guilt when your granddaughter is done." After speaking, she glanced at Zhao Tingshan: "Second uncle, please, presumably you don't want to stay here and disturb the peace of your grandfather and grandmother, right?" ”

Looking at this situation, Mrs. Zhao didn't know about it, but Zhao Siyin did use Mrs. Zhao and asked her to call Zhao Tingshan back, otherwise Zhao Siyin would not have a chance.

Zhao Tingshan glanced at Zhao Siyan, saw that she nodded imperceptibly, and then walked out first.

Liu Shi held Zhao Wenxi's hand tightly, but Zhao Wenxi stood in front of her, looking like he wanted to protect her.

A hint of mockery flashed in Zhao Siyin's eyes.

Zhao Tingshan and the others were sent back to Tingyuyuan, which was their former residence, but now it has become a place where they are imprisoned.

Zhao Siyin didn't come to them immediately, and left after locking them here.

Zhao Tingshan glanced at Zhao Siyan: "Yanyan, what do you say she wants to do?" ”

"Those who were afraid that Wen Jingting would stay, but they didn't expect to obey her drive now!" Zhao Siyan twisted her eyebrows and said: "She did this, only it is possible that she wanted to use us to contain Junze." ”

Zhao Tingshan nodded: "Then what should we do?" After a pause, he said with some annoyance: "If I had known, I shouldn't have brought you back with me." ”

Zhao Siyan shook his head: "Dad, it's not your fault, the old lady is seriously ill, and it makes sense that we all have to come back to visit, but I don't know if the old lady's illness has anything to do with her." ”

Zhao Dexiu's health has always been very good, how could he suddenly become seriously ill? I'm afraid there is a problem here.

Zhao Siyan secretly blamed himself for being careless.

Zhao Tingshan was shocked and angry.

Liu said worriedly: "Then what should we do? ”

Zhao Tingshan said: "Don't worry, if we don't go out for a long time, Chenfeng will definitely find out, and he will definitely come to save us." ”

Zhao Siyan shook his head, and then said: "Even if he finds out, but we are all in Zhao Siyin's hands, he has no choice, Zhao Siyin will definitely ask for Wen Jingting to exchange us." ”

Zhao Tingshan frowned: "With Wen Jingting? Isn't that a return to the mountains? After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said, "He shouldn't have been kept in the first place!" ”

But when Wen Jingting was kept, he also hoped that he could hold a hole card in his hand to contain Concubine Wen.

Zhao Siyan said: "It's too late to say these things now......

As soon as her words fell, Zhao Siyin walked in from outside, as soon as Zhao Tingshan saw her, he took a step forward and protected his wife and daughter behind him, Zhao Wenxi was not to be outdone, and also stood by his father's side, looking at her vigilantly.

It's as if she's a heinous bad guy and needs to be very vigilant.

Zhao Siyin felt proud in her heart, and then felt sad. Because no one had ever stood in her way like this, no one had ever been.

But so what? Now that Zhao Siyan has fallen into her hands, whether she is alive or dead is all in her thoughts.

"How? Zhao Siyan, it's not good to be a prisoner, right? Zhao Siyin curled the corners of her lips into a victorious smile.

Zhao Siyan said lightly: "You should be more experienced than me in this point, so why do you need to ask me?" ”

Zhao Siyin's face suddenly sank, and she sneered: "At this point, you can still have a hard mouth!" But I was impressed with you! ”

Zhao Siyan's expression remained unchanged: "I don't need you to be impressed, you are just showing off your victor's face to achieve your vanity." After a pause, she suddenly showed a meaningful smile: "But do you really think you won?" ”

Zhao Siyin's heart suddenly sank: "What do you mean?" ”

It's no wonder that Zhao Siyin is suspicious, because she has suffered too much in Zhao Siyan's body, one by one, even in the Temple of Mercy and Grace, when she designed Zhao Siyan to marry the young master of the Zhang family, the original plan was a sure thing, but in the end Zhao Siyan escaped, and she had to guard against it.

"You think you're proud that you're in control of my destiny now?" Zhao Siyan looked at her calmly and said, "You are just doing this as someone else's chess piece, do you think that if you catch me, Wen Jingting will be impressed by you?" Let me guess, what did he promise you? Is it the position of a wife? ”

Zhao Siyin's pupils shrank slightly.

Zhao Siyan said: "It seems that I guessed correctly." You're not going to tell me that you're still naΓ―ve enough to believe in men's promises, are you? ”

Her mocking expression made Zhao Siyin feel very stupid, "What do you know? I have his own letters, even if he doesn't agree! ”

Zhao Siyan shook his head and glanced at her sympathetically: "You have done such a thing, you can't hide it at all, for the sake of a man, you turned your back on your family and disobeyed your elders, by the way, the old man's illness has something to do with you, right?" Okay, even if it has nothing to do with you, do you think others will believe it? Others will only think that you hurt the old man to lure my father home. After a pause, she continued: "At that time, my father will be an elder who is filial to his parents, and you are an unscrupulous descendant who even the elders dare to murder for your own interests!" ”

Zhao Siyin's face changed suddenly.

At any time, filial piety is a mountain pressed on a person, whether he is a dignitary or an ordinary person, even the emperor cannot escape the shackles of filial piety. Otherwise, the queen mother listened to the government and let the power of the Nanping Marquis Mansion grow, and the emperor didn't dare to attack the queen mother, why? Isn't it all a filial piety pressed on the body?

As long as you disobey your elders, no matter who is right or wrong, you will be at a disadvantage as a junior.

Zhao Siyin's face turned slightly pale: "Win or lose, as long as I win, no one will care what I do." ”

"If you have enough strength, that's right, or if you meet a man who is genuine to you, you can get what you want. It's a pity that you don't have either, do you think that if you help Wen Jingting arrest me and achieve your goal, he will be good to you? You're naΓ―ve! You and him are husband and wife, he is a person who values love and righteousness, or a mercenary villain, I think you know better than me, right? Zhao Siyan said and paused: "At that time, your reputation will be ruined, I'm afraid that even the Zhao family won't be able to tolerate you, will he marry a woman with a damaged reputation at that time?" Even if he is willing, is the Wen family willing? ”

Zhao Siyin's face began to turn a little pale, she didn't think about these questions, or she didn't want to think about it, when she made a deal with Wen Jingting, she only thought about how to retaliate against Zhao Siyan, but she didn't think about the consequences.

What she wants is to get rid of the identity of the concubine and become Wen Jingting's wife, as if she can win over Zhao Siyan in this way. She longed for the title of princess so much that she didn't even think deeply about the possibility.

Zhao Siyan continued: "When that time comes, the first person to abandon you is Wen Jingting!" Think about it, even if you do something, what will people say about him? said that he is a soft egg who has no ability and can only rely on women, and he has to force his own women to betray his mother's family and sell his mother's family, and his wife is also a shameless woman who is not filial and unfilial! All you can bring him is shame, do you think he will keep you? ”

Talking about understanding Wen Jingting, Zhao Siyin does know him better than Zhao Siyan, and it is because of this understanding that she knows that what Zhao Siyan said is right!

In fact, Zhao Siyin really relied on Zhao Siyan's resentment and jealousy, so she agreed to do such a thing, calm down at this time, and when she heard Zhao Siyan's analysis, she also broke out in a cold sweat.

When Zhao Siyan saw her expression, she knew that she was hesitating, so she continued: "Why don't you also listen to my conditions, what I can give you is a stable and dignified life." After a pause, she looked into Zhao Siyin's eyes, her eyes calm: "I think, I am more reliable than Wen Jingting, right?" ”
