Chapter 361: Self-defeating

Zhao Nanxing searched in the alley and soon found the small shop called Lao Yang Inn. However, he was not in a hurry to get in. He looked around at the door and saw that there were no acquaintances in the alley, so Zhao Nanxing flashed into the inn.

The inn's second child was sitting at the counter napping, and the shopkeeper was not there.

Although Zhao Nanxing's footsteps were light, he still woke up Xiao Er.

Xiao Eryi looked up and saw an old guest officer enter the door, and was about to step forward to greet him, but saw Zhao Nanxing make a silent gesture towards him.

When Xiao Er was wondering, Zhao Nanxing had already handed over a piece of broken silver in time. And waved his hand at him.

Although Xiao Er didn't understand what this old guest officer was going to do, he recognized the silver. Since he had money to take, of course he didn't bother with that matter. Anyway, they don't have anything in this inn, and they're not afraid of being stolen. So Xiao Er consciously pretended not to see it, and let Zhao Nanxing enter the house, while he happily took the silver and continued to dream of marrying his daughter-in-law.

Zhao Nanxing tiptoed into the inn and soon found Zhao Rui's room. Because the other rooms were tightly closed, and they were covered with curtains. Although Zhao Nanxing didn't understand why the store used curtains to cover the windows of the room, this was not something he had to care about. What he is most concerned about now is where Zhao Rui lives.

Looking for two rooms ahead, Zhao Nanxing quickly found his daughter's residence. At this time, the voice of Yun'er speaking was heard inside.

"Miss, I heard that my uncle has also arrived in Beijing. Shall we go to him? ”

Zhao Nanxing tiptoed to the window, poked a hole in the window with his fingers and looked inside.

"He came to the capital when he came, and what does it have to do with us? Remember, we don't have anything to do with him anymore, and he's no longer your uncle.

I think I, Zhao Rui, is also a person who dares to love and hate, for me, instead of finding a man ordinarily, living a life with a husband and children, it is better to find a man I love. Even if it's nothing; Even the world laughs at me; Even if it's eloping with him! I don't regret it.

I, Zhao Rui, am just an ordinary woman, but I also crave passion. My life can be ordinary for 20 years, but there must be a burst of passion, even if it is only for a short day.

Therefore, although Yu Ren left me for the sake of the princess, I have no regrets. Because I've got the passion I wanted. ”

Zhao Rui's original words were not like this, she was originally going to pretend to be pitiful in front of her father, but for some reason, she said it like this when she said it. Probably because these words are the real thoughts in her heart!

However, when she saw Yun'er's prompting eyes, Zhao Rui still woke up in time, so she quickly added, "If you want me to follow him, I can't stand watching him kiss me with other women every day." Then I'd rather jump the canal.

I went back to Beijing this time mainly to see my father and mother again. My parents are old, I have no sisters, and my brothers are all big men, I don't worry! ”

These words are not only the lines prepared by Zhao Rui in advance, but also the words from her heart, so they are not pretentious at all.

Zhao Nanxing, who was outside the window, saw that his daughter was wearing an old cotton coat with six or seven patches, her hair was tied up loosely, her face was gray and black, and she no longer looked like she was before. The rich daughter of a rich family with an elegant temperament back then has now become a shabby-dressed peasant woman in a mountain village, and Zhao Nanxing's eyes couldn't help but moisten.

After listening to his daughter's evaluation of Yu Ren, Zhao Nanxing nodded secretly. This is like his daughter Zhao Nanxing, which is really different from those ordinary little women. But at the same time of great relief, Zhao Nanxing also scolded Yu Ren a thousand times in his heart. In his heart, his daughter will always be the best, don't say what kind of princess, even if it is a fairy in the sky, she can't compare to her.

And this Yu Ren actually abandoned his daughter for the sake of a princess! What a man with no eyes and no beads! Because Zhao Nanxing is a gentleman, although he hates Yu Ren, he doesn't think of revenge. He believes that this kind of behavior should not be done by a gentleman. He just gave Yu Ren a cross in his heart, a big cross.

Because he was worried about being seen by others, Zhao Nanxing didn't dare to stay outside the window for too long. He took out all the money he had on him, wrapped it in a few pieces of paper and put it at the door, and hurried away.

Zhao Rui was still acting hard in the house, but she didn't notice that her father had quietly left.

"The master is gone." Yun'er reminded in a low voice.

When Zhao Rui heard this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, Xiang Yun'er asked, "How is it?" What's my dad's reaction? ”

Yun'er held the bag of silver and put it on the table.

"The master left us a dozen taels of silver, and then left in a hurry."

"How was his expression when he left?" Zhao Rui asked.

"I'm angry when I hear it." Yun'er said.

"Now, I'm going to have a hard time." As Yu Ren spoke, he pushed the door and walked in.

"What do you have to worry about. As long as I forgive me. When I get home, I will naturally open it for you, and let my father forgive you. It's a big deal if you pretend to be a better offender and give me a guilty plea. When the time comes, I will forgive you. Can my father still recognize you as a son-in-law?

Good husband, for my sake, you will be wronged for a few more days for the time being! Don't worry, I promise that within three days, my father will send someone to pick me up. ”

"You're so confident." Yu Ren said as he helped Zhao Rui out of the room. This room was specially left by him to prepare for acting, and it was still the same inside, and nothing was done. Therefore, there was a strange smell in the room that was not very good, and Yu Ren was afraid that Zhao Rui would be uncomfortable if he stayed in it for a long time.

"Of course!" Zhao Rui confidently assured his father-in-law. "Didn't you see that my father left me all the money on him? This shows that his heart has moved. ”

It's a pity that Zhao Nanxing didn't continue to cooperate with his daughter according to his daughter's plan. Since leaving the inn that time, Zhao Nanxing has never been there. However, Mrs. Zhao often quietly went to the small inn to see her daughter, and he also saw it in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

The first thing he did when he got home was that Zhao Nanxing found a piece of music from the pile of official documents he brought home to deal with. This is the king of Lu to the emperor to promote Yu Ren as the chief soldier of Shandong, and it also lists Yu Ren's contributions in this Shandong rebellion. Of course, there is a general army in Shandong now, and he is the first major contributor to the suppression of the rebellion - Li Zhaoji.

However, King Lu said that Li Zhaoji was useless in this recital, saying that he was timid and did not dare to do anything. Therefore, he was able to quell the rebellion in one fell swoop, all because he happened to meet Yu Ren, who was leading troops to rescue at that time, and relied on Yu Ren's planning and support to successfully quell the rebellion.

Zhao Nanxing glanced at it roughly, and couldn't help muttering, "If you want to say so, then wouldn't this Shandong quelling chaos be all the work of him and Yu Ren." With him, can he have this ability? ”

Zhao Nanxing said, picking up the pen and writing a few words with a red pen on this recital. Then he found seven or eight more copies of the memoraries of other Shandong officials who had reported to Yu Ren. The credit written above is basically the same as what King Lu wrote. Zhao Nanxing also approved them one by one.

Although Zhao Nanxing did not know the truth of the things reported by these officials, judging from the actions of Yu Ren that he knew from his daughter, Zhao Nanxing believed that this must be a deliberate collusion between King Lu and other officials in order to protect his son-in-law, and attribute all the credit of others to Yu Ren.

From this point, Zhao Nanxing looked down on Yu Ren even more. In the past, he thought that Yu Ren was just at odds with his own political views, but at least in his heart, he still recognized Yu Ren's ability. But from today's incident, Zhao Nanxing gave Yu Ren a new definition - a man who eats soft rice.
