The lights in Zhao's mansion were bright, and Zhao Shangshu sat on the high position in the main hall angrily, he stared at Zhao Xinlan who was kneeling under the hall with a tiger face, and stared at her without saying a word.

The three ladies of the Zhao family had already sat in the lower row, they looked at Zhao Shangshu and then at Zhao Xinlan with an unknown look, they didn't go to the palace banquet, and they didn't know what happened, they just looked like they were watching a good show.

Zhao Xinlan's mother is in the main room, she was sitting on the right side of Zhao Shangshu, and glanced at Zhao Xinlan who was kneeling on the ground with her head bowed with some worry, because she was unwell, she didn't attend the palace banquet tonight, but just let her daughter go for her, but she didn't expect that the master had just come back and invited them over, and Lan'er was punished to kneel on the ground, and she was very frightened for some reason.

"Master, what did Lan'er do?" Finally, she couldn't stand the suffocating atmosphere, Mrs. Zhao asked first, and then grinded with him like this, she was afraid that her heart would not be able to stand it.

Zhao Shangshu glanced at her indifferently, and then pointed to Zhao Xinlan on the ground and said, "You ask her." ”

Mrs. Zhao immediately looked at Zhao Xinlan and asked, "Lan'er, what's going on?" Are you messing around in the palace? ”

Zhao Xinlan raised her head, she looked at Mrs. Zhao with tears of grievance on her face and said, "Mother, it's my daughter's mistake, and my daughter was deceived by the second lady of the Zhao family to do this kind of thing." ”

"You, what have you done?" Mrs. Zhao asked while holding her heart, she was afraid that the result of asking would be something she couldn't bear.

Zhao Xinlan cried for a while before saying, "My daughter listened to the second miss of the Xie family say that the eldest lady went home with her father." always bullied her, and her daughter wanted to vent her anger for her, but she didn't expect that this anger did not come out, but it hurt her father's business, and it was her daughter who did wrong......"

"You, you are really confused, the Xie family has always been at odds with our family, and I have told you many times that you have corresponded with the second lady, why don't you listen to your mother's advice?" When Mrs. Zhao heard this, this heart was settled, but fortunately it was not too out of line, otherwise she wouldn't be able to make up for it even if she wanted to.

When the second lady heard this, she said, "Eldest sister, can you persuade you?" You call it connivance, who in our family doesn't know how much the eldest lady has to do with that second miss Xie! She has always disliked this mother and daughter, and now that she has the opportunity to fall into the well, she certainly won't miss it.

The third lady blew her nails and said, "Master, in my opinion, it's not a big deal, why don't you let us go back to rest, this eldest lady won't have anything to do with that second miss Xie in the future!" "She has been listening to the doctor's advice lately to go to bed early to take care of her skin, and now it's too late, and if she doesn't sleep, it will be too late.

Zhao Shangshu snorted coldly and said, "What do you mean by not a big deal?" Even the emperor was shocked by this matter, do you think it's a big deal? I said that if you want to frame someone, you should do a good job, and in the end, you made me lose face, you made your father lose face in front of the surnamed Xie, you say, are you damned? ”

As soon as he said this, he slapped the table and stood up in anger.

Zhao Xinlan was so frightened that she hurriedly crawled over, hugged his leg and shouted: "Daddy, it's my daughter's fault, don't punish your daughter, your daughter will never do such a stupid thing in the future!" She is really afraid of her father, who has been angry all his life to serve the family law.

Zhao Shangshu glanced at her, then raised his foot to brush her away, and said coldly: "Let's go to the ancestral hall tonight and kneel for the night!" ”

With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Because of her stupidity, the person he planted next to Nian Guifei was eliminated like this, if this was not his daughter, he would really kill her!

"Sir, sir...... You can't be so ruthless, sir! The eldest lady rushed forward and pulled Zhao Shangshu's sleeve and shouted, "Lan'er has always been the most ancestral hall, if you let her kneel all night, she will be frightened!" ”

Zhao Shangshu pulled his sleeve out of her hand, then swept her coldly, and left without saying a word.

Zhao Xinlan was so frightened that she came to her mother and cried: "Mother, mother, I don't want to kneel in the ancestral hall, I don't want to kneel in the ancestral hall!" ”

When she was a child, she was punished by her father to kneel in the ancestral hall once, and since then, she has had nightmares for more than a month, and she is so scared that she can't control her shaking as soon as she passes by the ancestral hall.

Mrs. Zhao stroked her shoulder distressedly, her eyes were more helpless, she knew that what Zhao Shangshu decided would never change.

"Oh, eldest lady, it's just kneeling in the ancestral hall for one night, you should just sleep there, how can you be so delicate and harmful!" The second lady looked at her sarcastically, then swayed her willow waist and left.

The third lady just glanced at their mother and daughter hurriedly, and without saying a word, she followed the second lady back. She had to hurry back to rest.

Zhao Xinlan was not convinced, she stood up straight from Mrs. Zhao's arms, and then said to her: "Mother, I'll go and ask Daddy again!" ”

"What people like your father decide will never change, so why should you do fearless things." Mrs. Zhao knows her husband very well.

Zhao Xinlan's eyes said firmly: "No, Daddy will definitely change his mind after listening to my words." ”

With that, she went straight to the study.

Zhao Shangshu usually stays in the study for an hour at night before he goes to rest, and now needless to say, he must be in the study.

When she came to the study, she first stood outside the door and called: "Daddy, my daughter Zhao Xinlan has come to ask for sin!" ”

"Please go to the ancestral hall and kneel!" Zhao Shangshu was writing calligraphy, and when he heard her voice, his hand trembled, and the words were destroyed.

He put the pen down with a frown, then sighed and sat down in the Taishi chair.

"Daddy, my daughter still has something to say!" Zhao Xinlan gritted her teeth and said.

Zhao Shangshu was silent for a while before saying, "Come in!" "He'd like to see what else the idiot has to say.

As soon as Zhao Xinlan walked in, she knelt directly in front of him, then lowered her head and said: "Daddy, my daughter knows that tonight my daughter destroyed the palace maid that my father placed in the palace of Nian Guifei, and my father was angry, but my daughter still wanted to ask my father to spare my daughter once." ”

Zhao Shangshu was slightly stunned for a moment, and then looked at her with some scrutiny.

"Daddy, although the eyeliner is good, but it is not as good as a royal concubine with a noble status, if the daughter can become this imperial concubine in the future, then why does Daddy have to install eyeliner everywhere in the palace?" Zhao Xinlan was playing a small drum in her heart when she said this, and she didn't know if her father would spare her.

Zhao Shangshu stood up, paced to her side and gently pulled her up, and then looked at her for a moment before saying, "Lan'er, you have always been arrogant, and you don't look down on the noble sons of other families, so you made this calculation?" It's really a good daughter of her father, and even her thoughts are so consistent with her father's! ”

When Zhao Xinlan heard this, her heart was much more settled, and she smiled slightly when she looked at Zhao Shangshu's smile like an old fox.
