Chapter 40: Selling Women for Glory

Su Yunjun didn't expect Zhou Pan to be so serious that he wanted to say this to himself, nodded immediately, and held Zhou Pan's hand: "Pan'er, don't worry, even if I cut my hair and become a nun in this life, I will not enter the palace." ”

Maybe some people will desperately want to squeeze into the powerful courtyard for the sake of power, glory and wealth, but Su Yunjun will not.

Hearing this, Zhou Pan nodded, but he was still a little worried and said: "But now the rumors in the capital are boiling, I'm afraid that your father and mother will have this idea when they hear it." ”

Zhou Pan has always been a well-informed boudoir woman, even if sometimes sisters will say something considerate, Zhou Pan will rarely say this. Su Yunjun couldn't help but look at Zhou Pan suspiciously.

But Su Zijin didn't think about it and said: "Don't worry about this, my father and mother will never let Yunjun enter the palace, and the Su family doesn't need her daughter to seek any benefits for the family." ”

Su Zijin said this, in fact, it was just casual, but he just heard Zhou Pan's words and answered.

But the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Seeing that Su Zijin's voice just fell, Zhou Pan's body was shocked, and then he looked at Su Zijin with a complicated expression.

Su Yunjun kept looking at Zhou Pan, and when he saw this, he knew that Zhou Pan must have something in his heart, so he couldn't help asking, "Pan'er, do you have something to hide from us?" ”

Hearing Su Yunjun say this, Zhao Yingying and Su Zijin immediately looked at Zhou Pan.

Seeing Zhou Pan's eyes dodging, uncertain, he said perfunctorily: "What's the matter, it's okay." ”

Looking at Zhou Pan like this, even Zhao Yingying, who was coarse-minded, felt the taste. At the moment, he asked: "Pan'er, don't try to lie to us, what happened?" ”

Su Yunjun thought of his previous life and the words he had just said, and suddenly felt bad: "Did your family decide to marry you?" ”

Zhao Yingying and Su Zijin didn't expect Su Yunjun to say this, and they forgot to ask Zhou Pan for a while, and their faces were stunned.

Zhou Pan heard Su Yunjun's words, as if he had been pricked by a needle, and raised his eyes to look at Su Yunjun. Seeing the concern in Su Yunjun's eyes, tears that could no longer be stopped fell.

Once the emotions were vented, they couldn't stand it anymore, and Zhou Pan threw himself into Su Yunjun's arms and sobbed as if he would lose his breath at any time. Su Yunjun and Zhao Yingying, who were watching, both felt pain in their hearts.

While patting Zhou Pan's back to comfort her, Su Yunjun felt a little uneasy in her heart, and she had an ominous premonition.

Sure enough, without waiting for Su Yunjun to ask, Zhou Pan sobbed and said, "My father... You want to marry me off... Marry Zhang Mang..."

Zhou Pan seemed to vent all the grievances in this life, but he was crying and couldn't even speak.

However, it was enough for Su Yunjun and the others to hear clearly.

Hearing Zhou Pan's words, Su Yunjun only felt as if a muffled thunder had fallen in her brain and exploded in her mind.

Zhang Mang! I didn't expect it to come so quickly!

When Zhao Yingying heard Zhou Pan's words, she was startled at first, and then asked in disbelief: "Pan'er, who do you say?" ”

Zhou Pan had already cried into tears, and when he heard Zhao Yingying speak, he sobbed and said, "Zhang Mang! ”

These two words were uttered with almost all her strength.

Hearing this, Zhao Yingying was like a cat that had been stepped on by the tail, and suddenly jumped up: "That good male Zhang Mang? How could your father marry you to him? That's something that women in Beijing are afraid of, how could your father and mother do this! ”

Zhao Yingying couldn't believe it, not only Zhao Yingying, but even Zhou Pan couldn't imagine how her father could do this.

Even though she is only a daughter, when her mother was alive, she was also the pearl of her father's palm. Why is her father going to marry her to that good man for his own selfish interests, in order to rely on the Zhang family to curry favor with Queen Ba Jiewei. No, it's not a man, it's a beast.

As long as there is a daughter in the capital, they are afraid of being favored by the Zhang family, for fear of being married by Queen Wei. But her father gave himself as a gift.

"My father and mother have already received the dowry from the Zhang family, and they have chosen the date, and they will carry me to the Zhang family in a sedan chair on the eighteenth of next month." Zhou Pan finally cried enough, relieved himself, and then opened his mouth as if he was talking about other people's affairs, and he lost his emotions.

There is no greater mourning than the death of the heart.

Looking at Zhou Pan like this, Su Yunjun and Zhao Yingying's hearts were even tighter, but they didn't know what to say. Even Su Zijin was shocked by the news, but when he opened his mouth, there was no sound.

When Su Yunjun heard Zhou Pan's words, his mind was full of what Wei Zhen said arrogantly when he stood in front of him: "Zhou Pan is your handkerchief, I just got the news that she died on Zhuangzi the day before yesterday, it is said that the child in her belly was beaten alive by Zhang Mang and died of excessive bleeding, but don't worry, I will send Ju Xiang to mourn on your behalf." ”

That sentence was like a knife stuck in her heart, and she still hated it until she thought of it before she died. originally thought that she could change everything again, and change the fate of all the people she had to protect. But I didn't expect that Zhou Pan would still marry Zhang Mang.

It's just that in the previous life, it was Queen Wei who gave marriage, but in this life, it was the Zhou family who wanted to appease Queen Wei and curry favor with the Zhang family!

Su Yunjun couldn't help clenching her fists when she thought about this, and she didn't even realize that her nails were digging into the flesh, she was helpless about this matter now.

Zhou Pan and Su Zijin's situation is different, the Su family is because they don't know about Chen Ping's pickles, so they want to discuss marriage with the Rongguo Mansion. As long as she let her father and mother know, she would naturally dispel their idea of marrying Su Zijin to the Rongguo Mansion. But the Zhou family is different, they know what kind of person Zhang Mang is, and they know what will happen to their daughter if they marry her, but they still want to marry Zhou Pan, which is simply selling women for glory.

Even if Su Yunjun wanted to stop it, she couldn't stop Zhou Pan's father's ambition.

Zhou Pan cried for a long time, venting all the grievances in his heart, and he always felt better to be accompanied by his sisters. Without waiting for Su Yunjun and the others to speak, he comforted them in turn: "Okay, don't be sad, you all live by people, since God has arranged it like this, what else can be done." ”

Su Yunjun looked at Zhou Pan like this, as if he saw that he was designed and had to marry into the Wei family. was even more distressed by Zhou Pan, and secretly made up his mind that he would never let Zhou Pan marry Zhang Mang.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the voice of Ming Tea at the door: "Young Master, Miss Zhao and Miss Zhou are here, and the eldest and second miss are accompanying you." ”

When Su Yunjun heard the voice, he turned around and looked at the door, and Su Bangyan stood at the door with a blue face.

Seeing that there were outsiders, he didn't care about the etiquette, so he came in and pulled Su Yunjun and said, "Yunjun!" Come with me! ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

Su Yunjun was pulled, and turned back to Zhou Pan and Zhao Yingying, who were a little embarrassed. Zhao Yingying had long lost the mind to play at the moment, and Zhou Pan also had a momentary loss of color on his face when he saw Su Bangyan.

Su Zijin looked at Su Yunjun and was a little in a dilemma, and hurriedly said: "Yunjun, if there is something on Bangyan's side, you can go first, Pan'er and Yingying have me here." ”

Seeing that Zhao Yingying and Zhou Pan both nodded, Su Yunjun said sorry and followed Su Bangyan out.
