Chapter 37: Tough

Zhou Bei's sight was almost completely occupied by the delicate figure, and he could no longer see others.

When you see her, you seem to have the whole world.

I haven't seen her for more than half a month, and Youwei's expression is a little haggard, but she is still beautiful and makes people tremble.

She is not like her mother, the beauty of the country is fragrant, like a peony delicate.

She is the orchid of the mountain stream, although it will not make people swoon, but it can make people feel happy at the first sight.

"Youwei, I've been suffering for you this time."

In a word, Youwei broke the defense directly, her lips trembled a few times, and she wanted to pounce into Zhou Bei's arms.

But her arm was grabbed by Zhu Lihua, and when she thought of what her mother said, her heart was like a knife, and she turned around and threw herself into her mother's arms, crying loudly.

Zhou Bei took a deep breath and looked directly at Zhu Lihua's arrogant gaze. "I've seen the mother. It seems that these days, you have put a lot of pressure on Youwei. ”

Zhu Lihua has the chance to win, and she will no longer be aggressive in the face of Zhou Bei. "In Heng, you are a human being, and you need to face reality."

Zhou Bei asked stiffly, "What did you say to Youwei?" Is it using my safety to force Youwei to make a choice? ”

Zhu Lihua patted Youwei in her arms on the back, then helped her wipe away her tears, and said gently: "You talk to Zaiheng......"

Zhou Bei's heart was a little uneasy, and the worst happened.

Youwei has a weak personality and little knowledge, and she will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure of the two royal mansions.

On one side is the lover, and on the other side is the family.

What's more, he is now in prison and has lost his balance of control.

It's normal for Youwei to give in to pressure, and even Zhu Lihua and the others can threaten her with their own safety.

Zhou Bei felt a tight throat, and his voice was extremely dry. He said as gently as possible: "Youwei, don't be afraid, no matter what can't stop us from being together." ”

Vicky was just crying, she wanted to hide now, to avoid the choice of losing her lover.

But she also knew that she couldn't avoid it.

I have enjoyed the glory and wealth brought to me by my family, and I also have an unshirkable responsibility to my family.

In the past, she was well protected and just needed to enjoy life, but now she needs to step up.

In the past half a month, not only my mother, but also my father, grandfather, grandmother, uncle, and aunt have been taking turns to persuade themselves.

If you choose Zhu Liqing, everything will go smoothly, and if you choose Zhoubei, you will only face a difficult life.

When Zhou Bei needed her help, all she could do was to give her lover a smoother life path.

She loves Brother Heng, but the two can't be together.

However, if she wanted to say in person whether she was with Brother Zaiheng or not, she couldn't say it.

Seeing that Yu Youwei was just crying, Zhu Lihua could only smile helplessly. "Just yesterday, Youwei had promised Tang Wangfu, Tang Wang and the princess, and today they had taken a plane to Xuezhou to hold a Najib ceremony. When Youwei is eighteen years old, the wedding will be held. ”

Zhou Bei's heart was like a knife, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a big hand, making him breathless.

At the same time, there are thousands of knives piercing into his heart, and he is in pain.

However, this feeling soon faded and became empty.

During this time, he already had a hunch about this, but he didn't want to admit it when it came to the end, and he still had extravagant hopes.

Now, the dream is shattered.

He couldn't help but take a step forward, but his mother only hugged his waist and his right arm was also held.

Feeling the handcuffs on his wrists, he seemed to sober up a little, looked at Youwei's back and said, "Youwei." Looking back at me, as long as we are together, we can face any difficulties together! ”

Youwei, who was lying in Zhu Lihua's arms, didn't dare to raise her head, she was very painful, but she couldn't make her family sad for love.

At this time, Zhu Liqing, whose face was still a little pale, took a few steps forward and stood beside Zhu Lihua. "In Brother Heng, everything is in the past. This time, it was the younger brother who had a slight advantage. ”

Zhou Bei's gaze shifted from Youwei's body to Zhu Liqing's face, and then turned back to Zhu Lihua's gaze.

"For more than ten years, I have always respected you, and even admired you when I was a child, but today, you ripped off the fig leaf......"

Zhou Duo heard that his son's tone was a little wrong, and immediately said sharply: "Si'er! ”

Zhou Bei knew very well what his father was worried about, he turned his head to look at his father, nodded slightly, and turned around. "You take all the advantages and leave me with no hope. I know very well that you seem to have left me a way out today, so that I can continue my studies and enter the officialdom in the future, but there are still three or four years before I graduate from university, and no one can say what will happen in the future. ”

Zhu Lihua smiled: "We have achieved our goal, do you think we will still spend our energy on you?" ”

"In order to curb my development and prevent me from becoming your henchman in the future, you will definitely do whatever it takes."

Zhu Lihua's pupils shrank, and she felt the courage of Zhou Bei's jade burning, which made her arrogance retreat slightly.

She forced Zhou Bei into a desperate situation, but she definitely didn't want Zhou Bei to realize that there was no way out.

Because as long as Zhou Bei doesn't care about the future and is not afraid of going to prison, all their plans will come to naught.

She wanted Zhou Bei's silver, and Tang Wangfu wanted Zhou Bei's technology, but as long as Zhou Bei didn't sign, they couldn't get anything.

Tang Wangfu and Xue Wangfu can't interfere with Dali Temple, can't interfere with the Criminal Department, and even oppose each other.

The Fifth Tractor Factory and the Three Rivers Province were even more reluctant to allow Tangzhou to easily obtain advanced technology.

Zhu Lihua restrained her smile and said sincerely: "What you said is your own imagination, the Yu family and your Zhou family have a friendship for twenty years, just looking at this relationship, we will not really damage your future."

Even on your power of attorney, you can indicate these conditions and file them in Dali Temple. Don't make the wrong choice ......"

"I'm willing to trade technology and silver for being with Youwei, but you want silver and technology, but you won't marry Youwei to me. 400,000 silver coins, countless people can't earn it in their lifetime, if you just go to prison for a few years, you can keep these, the choice doesn't seem difficult for me. ”

Without waiting for Zhu Lihua to speak, Zhou Bei looked at his father and said loudly: "Father, the child can admit defeat, but he can't bear the humiliating failure!" If the child goes to prison, are you still willing to admit the child? ”

Zhou Duo was inexplicably sad and angry, but he was speechless in front of everyone's eyes.

He is not only a child in Zhou Bei, he has six sons and three daughters, if he turns his face with Zhu Lihua today, he will definitely suffer comprehensive revenge.

But isn't he humiliated?

Since Yu Cheng entered the Fifth Tractor Factory in Dongzhou, he has helped him a lot, he is handsome, he was favored by Zhu Lihua, and the two still maintain a close relationship of teacher and friend.

He thought he had done everything he was supposed to do, but now he was stabbed hard.

It's okay not to agree to the marriage, but now it's the future of his favorite son that has to be decided!

He couldn't speak, but the mother in Zhou Bei's arms straightened up and wiped away her tears. "Don't say that you just go to jail, or you are beheaded, you are still the son I am proud of."

Zhou Duo's originally erect waist bent down suddenly, and he let out a long sigh and said, "Daddy is proud of you." ”

Zhou Bei's gaze turned to Zhao Meng's face and said softly, "I'm sorry." ”

Zhao Meng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Returning his gaze to Zhu Lihua's face with a serious expression, Zhou Bei said fiercely: "County Lord Niangniang, you are high, but today, I also have to fight for a breath." I will refuse to mediate and wait for the verdict! ”

Zhu Lihua's calmness could not be maintained any longer, and said sharply: "Zaiheng, think about your family, don't be so impulsive." ”

Zhou Bei sneered: "You think you can cover the sky with one hand!" The Ming Dynasty has always restrained the clan and given you status, but not power. This time I carelessly fell into the trap, but if I insist on not reconciling, you want technology, you want my money, it's just wishful thinking! ”

Youwei in her arms also felt the tension of the atmosphere and raised her head. "Brother Heng, I don't want you to go to jail......"

Zhou Bei said gently: "It's not something I can control, it's your mother, it's your fiancΓ©, who laid a trap for my silver and technology."

Vicky, I like you. But now, our two families will become enemies. Your choice is right, and we will never go back to the way we were. I only hope that you will be happy in the future! ”

The atmosphere around seemed to be frozen, and Zhou Bei's heart was extremely painful, but it was extremely happy.

Painfully, he and Youwei could no longer be.

can see Zhu Lihua and Zhu Liqing's ugly faces, but their hearts are extremely happy.

Of course, this is also because of the confidence that Li Ji brought him, otherwise, he would not dare to gamble with the fate of the Zhou family and the Liu family.

At this time, Fan Xing, the Dali Temple Cheng who was in charge of handling this difficult case, walked from the main building with a few entourages and a dignified expression.

Dali Temple Cheng is the most important official in the entire system of Dali Temple, and the difference in rank is very large.

The lowest-grade Dali Temple has only eight grades, and the highest-level Dali Temple has four grades.

Dali Temple Qing, Shaoqing, Zheng, Cheng, constitute the main organizational structure of the entire Dali Temple system.

Fan Xing, as the county seat of Xuezhou, is the leading Dali Temple, which is the highest level of Dali Temple in the Ming Dynasty.

With him as the presiding judge, it also represents the importance that Dali Temple in Xuezhou County attaches to this case.

A director opened the mediation room, and after several masters registered, they guided everyone into the mediation room, and arranged seats based on identity and related relationships.

The mediation room is about 50 square meters in size, with a long table in the middle and hearing seats on three sides against the wall.

Above the top side hangs the Ming flag, the balance flag of Dali Temple.

Fan Xing, as the chief judge, sat at the head, a total of six lieutenants, two stood behind him, and four lieutenants guarded the four corners of the long table, responsible for maintaining order.

To the left of the long table is the plaintiff's seat, and to the right is the defendant's seat.

The presiding judge is the main one, and there is a presiding judge on the left and right sides to represent both sides, and the presiding judge picks up and fills in the gaps.

Below them are the lawyers of the original defendants, then the original defendants, and at the end are the two straighteners, who are responsible for documenting the mediation process.

Fan Xing waited for everyone to sit down, and then said loudly: "In the year 4212 of the Yellow Emperor's calendar, in the autumn of the first year of Zhengde, the tenth day of the seventh month. Dali Temple in Xuezhou County examined the assassination case of the prince of Sanhe Mansion and Tang Wangfu in Shannan County on June 21, and conducted the first trial to sort out. Both sides are now invited to stand and play the national anthem. ”
