Chapter 69: Brothers Against Brothers
"The concubine knows that the concubine is for his good, don't worry about it."
The emperor fell asleep, but Concubine Mei was thinking about something, and she couldn't sleep for a long time.
In order to prepare for the banquet in the palace, all the famous mansions are busy preparing, but Su Su's mind is not here, after getting the exact news that Zou Zheng is asking Jiang Yu for marriage, she is almost crazy, after thinking twice, she sent a maid, handed a letter to Zou Zheng, and made an appointment to meet in a restaurant.
When Zou Zheng arrived, Su Su had been waiting in the private room for a long time, her jade face was tense and sad, and when she saw Zou Zheng, she had tears in her eyes and bit her lips.
Zou Zheng quietly closed the door, and cautiously walked to Su Su's side, "Are you angry with me?" ”
"Brother Zheng, I didn't expect you to be so conscienceless, and actually proposed to Jiang Yu, what about me? How did you promise me before? ”
Su Xu cried as he spoke, and anyone who saw it was worried, wouldn't it be a pity for such a beauty to cry.
"Su'er, don't cry yet." Zou Zheng said as he took the silk cloth to help Su Xu wipe his tears, "Do you know that I have a hard time?" ”
"What's your problem? Speak with me. ”
"This matter involves family ugliness, you can't say it, but you have to believe that I made this decision to save my mother, so marrying her is just an expedient measure, not sincere, in my heart you will always come first."
Su Su glared at him and said angrily: "What's the use of putting me first? You want to marry Jiang Yu now, then let's change between us, I came today to make it clear to you. ”
Hearing this, Zou Zheng hurriedly took Su Xu's hand: "Good sister, don't you understand what I mean?" Now that our family is in trouble, I and Zou Shibo are begging to marry Jiang Yu at the same time, he is begging to marry a wife, if I ask to marry a concubine, how can Jiang Yu marry me. I must also pretend to marry a wife and beg, and when the time comes, I will quietly steal the beam and change the pillar to make her a concubine. ”
"Who believes it, you still want to lie to me, I won't be fooled by you again." Su Su got up angrily, Zou Zheng hugged her from behind, and said sweetly for a while before calming her emotions.
and assured her that Jiang Yu must be a concubine, so Su Su was willing to give up, but asked Zou Zheng to come to their Su Mansion as soon as possible
After Zou Zheng sent Su Su away, he returned to the Guogong Mansion with a haggard face, and when he was walking in the corridor thinking about something, he met his good brother Zou Shibo.
The original good brother is now a rival in love, and the two can't help but smile awkwardly when they meet: "Big brother, it's not me who said you, Miss Su is your good match, why are you fighting hard." ”
Zou Zheng smiled bitterly: "What about you?" Why are you? Not like me? ”
Zou Shibo hurriedly straightened his body: "I am different from my eldest brother, I am sincere, and I must take good care of her for the rest of my life." ”
Zou Zheng still sneered: "What I said, you are still young, and you will meet more and more young girls in the future, and you will never spoil her for the rest of your life." Men can swear and talk sweetly, but we don't need to pretend when we see them, right? ”
"Big brother, why do you think I'm cheating, don't live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."
Zou Shibo raised his voice with a flushed face: "Big brother didn't expect you to be such a person, Sister Yu'er must not marry you." ”
Zou Shibo was about to leave angrily after speaking, but was stopped by a voice behind him: "You dare to say that you didn't marry her because of the second aunt's affairs, if the second aunt is okay in the future, will she accept such a daughter-in-law?" ”
Zou Shibo made up his mind, his mind was in chaos, and he walked away without answering.
Jiang Yu slowly opened his eyes while drinking warm tea, the other hand on his wrist slowly moved away, a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth, he saw all the scene just now, and sighed slightly in his heart, this is why Jiang Yu did not marry in his last life. Most men in the world are selfish, and they look down on women lightly, casually, and as accessories, and Jiang Yu doesn't want to be like that, so he may not marry in this life after all.
Hua Lian seemed to see Jiang Yu's thoughts, and asked lightly on the side: "Miss, what kind of man will you marry, and you will have a better life in the future?" For example, the eldest young master and the second young master? ”
"Both of them are the kind that they can't marry." Jiang Yu replied slowly.
"Huh? It turns out that the young lady doesn't like any of them, but why don't you let the lady refuse immediately? ”
"Of course, they thought their plans would succeed."
"Oh, I see, they want to get close to the young lady and ask the old lady to intercede? Miss can't promise them, they're so bad. ”
Jiang Yu smiled and didn't say anything, after eating tea, he went to accompany his mother and grandmother, although such a day was boring, but fortunately, it was comfortable. It's all different from the days before.
The three of them got together and discussed the matter of the palace banquet for a few days, Jiang Yu didn't pay attention to it, but the old lady specially told her a lot of rules in the palace, for fear that she would make a mistake.
"I'm not going to see the enemy, look at you who makes you nervous." Jiang Yu smiled.
"Hehe, I'm afraid it's more important than seeing the enemy." The old lady said solemnly.
"That rain knows, everything will be careful."
"It's a trouble for those who bring their female dependents into the palace this time, the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law are all locked up, who should lead them into the palace for a while? And suddenly the two wives didn't come forward, there has to be a reason. ”
Zou Minlan looked at her old mother anxiously, and the old lady nodded: "I know that this matter is very important, and I am thinking about it, and let me think about it again." ”
