"Five strikes!"

Zhao Cuo delivered the final verdict fiercely, then turned around to look at his elder sister, and said with a smile as if nothing had happened:

"Sister, when did you come here? I was discussing business matters with my wife. Are you going back now?"

The forced smile on Miss Zhao's face told him that this time it was not easy to fool her.

"not yet."

After regrouping in his heart, he stepped forward with a smile on his face.

"Is this Mrs. Yan? I have admired her name for a long time. My brother asked you to take care of me a few days ago."

"What are you talking about, Miss Zhao?"

Madam Yan wanted to cry after learning the first-instance verdict, but she wiped away her tears knowing that if a commotion broke out at this time, the second-instance sentence might be commuted to "ten strokes."

"I am under the care of Young Master Zhao."

A modest smile appeared on her charming little face. Zhao Shanxin looked at the charming and charming widow of the late emperor, and her heart went off for a moment! The moment she looked at her, she felt that this beautiful woman was delicate and cute.

'Are you deliberately applying lipstick to your eyes to make yourself look more pitiful?'

Little did she know what kind of punishment this pretty widow had just been sentenced to by her precious brother.

"Ma'am, you're too kind."

When Zhao Cuo heard Yan'er say good things to him, he nodded to express his satisfaction.

'Isn't this Madam Yan also Cuo'er's confidante?'

Zhao Shanxin felt even more sad when she saw the two people showing off to each other. She glanced at the beautiful widow in Taoist robes. Her figure in its most mature state was nothing short of inferior.

"Did Madam come to Lingci Temple alone to pay homage?"

Miss Zhao, who was eager to get the late emperor's widow away from her younger brother, smiled and spoke.

"We have invited many elders and sisters to come and offer incense today. Madam, if you don't mind, why don't you go sit in the pavilion over there?"

"It's better not to disturb me."

Yan'er quickly shook her head. There was a rumor in the capital that Yan Mei had a grudge against the Queen Mother, so it was impossible for her to sneak into the circle of Duke Zheng. Today she came with the family members of some big businessmen. Besides, she really couldn't stand women.

People have short families.

"I also came here with a few friends. I left them to have a few words with my young father-in-law. Now it's almost time to go back there."

As she spoke, she cast an inquiring look at Zhao Cuo again. The ruthless Inspector Zhao nodded without any trace, and secretly raised three fingers to her. Yan'er, who was being manipulated, pursed her pink and thin lips, feeling touched in her heart.

I was humiliated and at the same time inexplicably a little happy.

'Is this three strikes off or three strikes? No, why should Yan'er be happy about something like this? I won't go to this disciple's room to ask for a beating tonight!'

Yan'er relaxed a little when he thought of this.

"Madam, walk slowly."

After Zhao Shangxin politely watched the late emperor's widow go away, the smile on his lips did not disappear. Without saying a word, he took his brother's hand and walked towards the pavilion.

"Sister Changxin...Mrs. Yan and I are just ordinary friends."

Knowing that my sister was angry, Mr. Zhao took the initiative to speak.

"Why did you hide it from your sister?"

Miss Zhao's face instantly turned sour.

"First, Miss Lan, who came from who knows where, and now she is the late emperor's widow. Is there anything you can't tell me about this? I won't stop you from finding a woman. It's not unusual for the eldest son of a dignified prince to have a few confidantes.

thing."

"Let's take a walk by the lake."

Zhao Cuo felt a little ashamed when he smelled the smell of vinegar coming from his sister.

"What a misunderstanding. How could Madam Yan and I have that kind of relationship? There is nearly a ten-year age gap between us."

"My sister didn't know that you actually like women until today."

The tone of appreciation is faint.

"But it's true. Women of this age are the most loving. It's inevitable that your heart will be moved when you are young."

"It's good if sister knows."

Her tone suddenly changed.

"I was just discussing with Madam Yan about finding an inn to keep warm, but my sister ruined the plan. Since you can understand, I will go to her first."

As he spoke, he let go of his elder sister's hand.

"you!"

Miss Zhao opened her charming peach blossom eyes in disbelief.

"If it were like what my sister thinks, I would just run away with Madam Yan right now, wouldn't I?"

Before his sister burst into tears, Zhao Cuo turned around and held her in his arms, lowered his head and leaned against her crystal earlobe, and said softly in a gentle tone:

"I'm still here now, doesn't it prove that my sister is more important in my heart? As for the relationship with Yan'er, it's nothing more than a close acquaintance."

"I really don't know who you learned this method of coaxing women from..."

Before Zhao Shanxin had time to be heartbroken, she was so happy with his few words that she forgot about her worries. She who prided herself on being a bit clever suddenly blushed. Young Master Zhao said harsh words first and then showed tenderness. It was an ordinary girl.

I'm afraid my head would have become dizzy if my mind was manipulated like this.

"Everything I said to my sister is true."

Zhao Cuo looked serious.

"You just called the late emperor's widow Yan'er?"

She sighed again.

"Sister, I don't want to talk to you about women, but you are too brave. You dare to touch even the emperor's women."

"I even hugged the Queen Mother's waist."

Of course Mr. Zhao would not say this out loud.

"Sister, don't overthink it. My relationship with Madam Yan is good, but it's far from that level."

"Yeah?"

Young Miss Youxin didn’t believe his nonsense. What else could they say if they were sitting together in broad daylight? The jealousy in her heart was still not gone. She hummed softly:

"It seems that my sister will make more soup in the kitchen to make you more powerful in front of that woman."

She couldn't help but blush as soon as she said these words. Of course, Young Master Zhao still tried his best to quibble, and finally made his sister reluctantly believe that he and Yan'er had been friends for many years.

The lively early winter days passed quickly, and the next two days also passed by in a hurry, and soon it was the day to go to the frozen river. Here, the two siblings had to part ways temporarily because they couldn't go together.

Zhao Cuo was assigned as an executioner to serve as the escort of the Queen Mother's Phoenix Chariot. Of course, it was impossible to bring a family, so he could only act separately from his sister. He set off first, while Zhao Shanxin and Zhao Shanxin met in a few days.

The ladies and gentlemen from the capital came together.

"Have you eaten, Mr. Zhao?"

A team of nearly 10,000 people left the capital of Dayu at dawn. Zhao Cuo rode a horse and followed the majestic Luan Jia of Empress Dowager Zhao from a distance. In front of them were all the soldiers from the inner palace, and he, a small official, could only go to

He leaned back, flanked by his colleagues from the execution department.

"I drank the lily and turtle soup that my sister made for me in the middle of the night before I went out."
