Chapter 169 The mourning family can also reduce you to a pariah
Chu Ruojun first went south to the south of the Yangtze River, went to the dart bureau and asked for a letter written by Hu Xiaolin, and asked in detail where Zhaojiazhuang was.
Chen Jianniang wanted to keep them more, but they just stayed for lunch and then left again.
"Hmph." She muttered, "Every time Sister Chu is so busy." β
"When I'm done with this, I'll come to the dart game to play with you." Chu Ruojun rubbed her head, rubbed her hair fluffy and messy, and then went out with a smile.
"Ruojun." Zhaoyang called her softly, but only screamed and did not speak again.
Chu Ruojun hesitated, but couldn't help but say, "I can't call you princess or Zhaoyang outside, call you Yangyang." β
"Okay, then I'll call you Junjun?"
Chu Ruojun smiled and said, "I'm just whatever, I don't pay so much attention to it." β
"Jun-Jun." Zhaoyang seemed to like the name very much, and called her with the corners of his mouth bent.
Chu Ruojun's face was a little red inexplicably by this name, and she unconsciously looked at Zhaoyang beside her.
But seeing that Zhaoyang was dressed in a simple dress, only a silver hairpin was inserted in his black hair, his eyebrows and eyes were deliberately mature, and there was a thick rouge on both sides of his cheeks, which was completely reminiscent of the word princess.
Although some people in the tavern inn would look at them twice, when they saw Chu Ruojun holding the long sword in his hand, he looked back coldly, and instantly withdrew his gaze.
Zhaoyang blinked his eyes and asked in a low voice, "Junjun, what do I think, you see everyone is a bad person." β
Although Chu Ruojun was wary of everyone who approached her, especially men, she seemed to be too guarded, and people just took a few more looks.
"Because I'm afraid of trouble." Chu Ruojun's eyes were cold, "If you don't deter them from the beginning, maybe they will come over." β
Zhaoyang was speechless, so he had to nod and keep up with Chu Ruojun's footsteps as he went upstairs.
......
Empress Dowager Shao just came in and saw Shen Yi with a calm face.
"The Queen Mother has arrivedβ"
Shen Yi smiled faintly, "Why did the queen mother come here?" β
"You're embarrassed to say it." The Queen Mother glanced at him angrily, "Is it the rumor you released, saying that the Mourning family confined the Emperor Taishang in Zhuyuan, and the Mourning family sent assassins to intercept the Emperor Taishang back?" β
"Oh?" Shen Yi glanced at her and said lightly: "With such news, how come I don't know?" β
"You don't pretend to be stupid for the mourning family, obviously you did a good thing, but it was planted on the head of the mourning family, and now the officials are condemning the mourning family for being unkind." The Queen Mother glared at him, "Emperor, what kind of heart do you have!" β
"It's just the gossip of the official." Shen Yi seemed to smile, "The queen mother doesn't need to pay attention to them, it won't be long before they disappear." β
The Queen Mother snorted lightly: "That is equivalent to the acquiescence of the mourning family." β
Shen Yi's eyes shone slightly, "If it weren't for the fact that the Queen Mother had such a stiff quarrel with the Emperor Taishang before, it wouldn't have been rumored to come out, and the remarks would have been almost one-sided." β
"You ....." the Queen Mother choked in her heart angrily, "You actually used the mourning family as a gunman!" β
"If the queen mother is not happy, she can order the punishment of those officials, I will never say anything." Shen Yi's face was expressionless.
"Hmph......" The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "The mourning family wholeheartedly helped you to take the position, but I didn't expect you to cross the river and tear down the bridge, and you were ungrateful." β
"I don't understand what the queen mother is saying." Shen Yi laughed.
"Okay." The Queen Mother sneered, "You have great ability and hard wings, but the mourning family can help you to the throne, and they can also reduce you to a pariah." β
"I'm looking forward to it." Shen Yi raised his eyes.
The corners of the Queen Mother's lips curled into a sneer, "Do you want to know where Zhaoyang went?" The emperor wouldn't still know that Miss Chu was gone. β
"You ....." Shen Yi frowned slightly, "What did you do to her?" β
Only then did the Queen Mother ease her mood, "If you don't abolish Zuo Xiang and remove Shao Guozhang's position as a bachelor, the mourning family will be able to make the Chu family never come back." β
Shen Yi "......"
He clutched his chest, picked up the cup and drank the tea inside, which was barely smooth.
I knew that the Queen Mother's wrist was not weak, I am afraid it would not be so easy to deal with.
But Shen Yi couldn't have imagined that in order to weaken his strength, he would not be soft at all.
Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother, what did you do to her?" β
"Only the mourning family knows where she is." The Queen Mother raised her eyes and glanced at her, "And Zhaoyang, the mourning family will definitely not let her become a tool for you to win over the courtiers." β
Shen Yi's face was a little unpleasant, "I abolished Zuo Xiang and removed the scholar, can the queen mother guarantee to let her come back?" β
The Queen Mother laughed: "Of course." β
"What if the queen mother doesn't do it?" Shen Yi sneered, "Isn't I a bamboo basket to draw water?" β
"It's better for the emperor to weigh it, whether he is afraid of the bamboo basket to fetch water, or he is afraid that the Chu clan will not be able to come back." The Queen Mother said seriously.
Shen Yi clenched his fists and did not speak.
"The mourning family went back first, waiting for news from the emperor." The Queen Mother smiled and glanced at him.
Shen Yi nodded slightly with a complicated expression.
After the Queen Mother left, he still had a black face.
If the Queen Mother wanted to blackmail him in other ways, he would have countless ways to deal with her.
However, Ruojun ...... She......
How could it have anything to do with Zhaoyang's escape from marriage.
She has been Zhaoyang's personal guard, she is good friends with Zhaoyang, and she has a united front with Wang Zhiyao on the battlefield of the Jin Kingdom, plus she is an impulsive person, it is entirely possible to help Zhaoyang escape marriage.
Thinking of this, Shen Yi was half angry!
And the Queen Mother had already discovered their whereabouts, sent someone to track them down, and made arrangements.
Realizing that he was choked by the throat of the Queen Mother, Shen Yi's face became even more ugly, and he didn't ease up until the Queen Mother came over.
Shao Shifang was originally full of smiles, but when he saw Shen Yi's dark face, he suddenly wondered: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Who messed with you? β
"Who else but your good aunt." Shen Yi's tone was very bad.
"What happened to my aunt?" Shao Shifang's eyes lit up.
Shen Yi glanced at her.
Shao Shifang realized that his tone was too light, so he coughed lightly and changed it to a crusade tone, "What bad things did my aunt do again?" β
"She can't get used to seeing the huge power of me, and Zhaoyang's escape from marriage was arranged by her." Shen Yi sighed, "She also forced me to remove your father's position as a bachelor. β
Shao Shifang was stunned for a moment and shook his head gently.
Her father has worked hard for her for many years, and she will withdraw when she says so, since she is unkind first, she can't blame herself for being ruthless.
A hint of hatred flashed in Shao Shifang's eyes.
......
After a few days' journey, the carriage stopped in front of a teahouse.
It is very close to Zhaojiazhuang, although it is a small teahouse, but there are a few masters hidden.
After the two of them sat down, many people around them looked at them.
There are not many women sitting in the teahouse, and such a beautiful woman is even rarer. What's more, there are very few women who still hold a sword in their hands and can do martial arts.
The tea is not good, on weekdays, they don't eat this kind of tea at all, but at the moment this is already the best.
Suddenly, those eyes that were originally staring at Chu Ruojun and Zhaoyang suddenly turned outside, some people stretched their necks to look, and some people stood up and ran to the door.
Chu Ruojun was also a little curious, she thought to herself: Could it be that there is some big man outside.
Maybe it was a big man who heard that the only son of the Zhao family was seriously injured and came to challenge?
Zhaoyang was curious, and couldn't help but want to go to the door to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a lot of solemn men.
Strangely, everyone was staring at these men, and some were still whispering.
"What's so nice about these men?" Zhaoyang was a little confused.
The person next to her turned his head to look at her, and said with a smile: "Girl, you don't know, this is from the Zhao family." β
Zhaoyang's eyes flashed, and he didn't ask again.
Surrounded by a group of bodyguards, Wang Zhiyao seemed to be aware of it, looked up in a certain direction, and then, his dark pupils contracted.
A white wrist wrapped around his only remaining arm: "Husband, what's wrong?" β
Wang Zhiyao glanced down at the hand holding him, suppressed the indifference in his eyes, and smiled slightly: "It's nothing, it's not easy to come out, you can buy whatever you want." β
The woman smiled brightly, "Husband, you are so good." β
Passing by the teahouse and passing through the bustling street, the woman took a box of water-red rouge and looked at the man next to her with a smile: "Husband, is this color good-looking?" β
"Hmm." Wang Zhiyao's tone was a little cold.
A trace of unhappiness flashed in the woman's eyes, but the next second, she smiled again: "What about this hairpin?" β
"It's fine." Wang Zhiyao coped with it calmly.
The smile on the woman's face finally disappeared.
"You are now my husband." Her voice was beautiful, like a yellow bird, "You should try to show a good relationship with me." β
Wang Zhiyao smiled coldly: "But I don't want to." β
"You ....." The woman's face was slightly dissatisfied, and she lowered her voice, "If you are like this, Lord Zhao will be angry." β
Wang Zhiyao sneered lightly, and the meaning of ridicule was very obvious.
The woman bit her lip.
She understands that even if she and Zhao Wenya sue her, Zhao Wenya will forget it, after all, the more times they appear in front of outsiders, the more flaws they have, and this appearance is just to let everyone know that the young owner is not dead, he is alive, but he lost an arm.
Forget it, they won't be together very often in the future.
She thought so and looked at him expressionlessly.
Wang Zhiyao lowered his eyes, and the lines of his side face were smooth and handsome.
The two brothers are completely different.
Although he is also handsome, his real husband's handsomeness is chic and wild, but the man next to him is indeed plain and indifferent, and there has always been a chill of alienation in his eyes.
After a while, they returned to Zhaojiazhuang.
thought that someone would challenge him along the way, and he happened to take someone to kill the chicken and make an example, but he didn't expect it.
"It's a smooth road." The woman smiled tactfully.
"Hmm." Wang Zhiyao replied lightly.
In the teahouse, Zhaoyang looked at the street intently.
"Yangyang, it's time for us to go." Chu Ruojun reminded her in a deep voice.
Zhaoyang snorted and raised her head, the cotton curtain of the carriage had been lifted for her.
