After his father left the morning court, he came back to question him. He must have heard some rumors, but even so, he did not dare to tell the truth to his father. If his father knew that he had wronged Mr. Zhao, he would definitely be furious. Since Mr. Zhao came back from Licheng
, my father has always talked about Mr. Zhao.
In fact, he was also a little puzzled as to why Mr. Zhao seemed to be a different person after his trip to Licheng.
What ability can he have to help His Highness Pluto with official affairs? However, if it is to help Pluto hide his beauty in the golden house, he believes that Mr. Zhao has this ability.
But Mr. Zhao's words made Master Shangshu even more angry, and he said to the servants beside him: "Go and get the family law."
Mr. Zhao was given fifty strokes just yesterday. How could he endure the family law? His wife was so frightened that she hurriedly said: "Master, what are you doing? You are already tired after attending the morning court. Why don't you go and rest."
"If you don't teach him a lesson today, I'll be sorry to all the ancestors of the Li family." Lord Shangshu roared angrily.
"Cheng'er, aren't you telling the truth? What's going on?" Mrs. Shangshu asked.
Mr. Li knew that the old injury was not healed yet, and if he got a new one, he might not be able to collapse in a month or two. So, he had no choice but to say to his father: "The night before yesterday in the Yanyu Tower, I planned a trick on Mr. Zhao, but it turned out to be the opposite."
I was plotted against. I was taken to Hades' Mansion yesterday. Princess Pluto punished me because of this incident. It's all my fault. I shouldn't plot against others, let alone lie to my father." Mr. Li said.
"Cheng'er, why are you doing this? You know that Mr. Zhao is a person close to Hades' Palace, how dare you do this?" the lady asked.
"My father always praised Mr. Zhao, and I was a little unconvinced. Ever since he came back from Licheng, he had been very concerned about his thoughts. My son couldn't see it, so he did stupid things." Mr. Li said.
"When will you grow up?" the lady said.
The servant who went to get the family law has come back. The lady winked and asked him to leave first. Seeing this, the servant slowly left.
Lord Shangshu said: "If I hadn't heard Pluto tell me the truth today, I don't know how long I would have been kept a secret from you."
"Father, Chenger knows that he was wrong." Mr. Li said.
"So, the person staying overnight in Yanyu Tower is not Mr. Zhao at all?" Master Shangshu said.
"I saw with my own eyes that he entered the wing with two beautiful girls in his arms. I originally planned to watch the excitement. I didn't expect that when I woke up the next morning, Mr. Zhao was gone and I slept in that wing." Li
The young master said.
"You failed to plot against others, but you harmed yourself. You have evil intentions and cannot blame others. This time you were given fifty strokes, so you should teach yourself a lesson. If you do it again in the future, I will not protect you." Lord Shangshu said.
"Yes, father, Cheng'er has realized his mistake and will never make another mistake again." Mr. Li said.
Mr. Li was relieved when he saw that his father did not pursue the matter further. He was worried that his father would ask about Yue'er, but now it seems that his father does not know. He has learned a lesson about this matter, and there is no need to involve Yue'er.
Seeing this, Mrs. Shangshu said quickly: "Since Cheng'er has admitted his mistake, just take good care of his injuries. Master, Cheng'er has just recovered from his fever, so you can't have anything to say. You rushing in like this will scare Cheng'er."
"He is not a child. Besides, if he really knew he was afraid, why would he try to hide it?" Master Shangshu said.
Mrs. Shangshu couldn't explain anything, so she could only say: "Now he finally knows that he was wrong and was beaten. Master, please stop scaring Cheng'er."
"You have spoiled him rotten, otherwise how could you dare to do such a thing. Even though the legitimate son of the Zhao family was not a good one before, he is now appreciated by His Majesty. He made that kid from the Zhao family make a fool of himself, not to beat His Majesty.
Face?" Master Shangshu said.
After Lord Shangshu taught Mr. Li a lesson, he left the courtyard. After the Lord left, his wife said, "Why are you so stupid that you dare to do such a thing? Your father was here just now, and I couldn't say it. I can't say it."
I want to ask you, does this have anything to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"Mother, why does this matter have anything to do with Yue'er? My son does like Yue'er, but after all, he also knows how to exercise caution. Yue'er
We are already engaged, so I must avoid suspicion." Mr. Li said.
"You think I didn't know that Chun'er came to Shangshu Mansion that day? Chun'er left, and you made an appointment with Mr. Zhao. Isn't it because of Miss Prime Minister?" Mrs. Shangshu said.
"Mother, please don't make wild guesses. This matter really has nothing to do with Yue'er. Since Mr. Zhao came back, his father has praised him in front of his son more than once. The son was unwilling to do so, so he did this. I know what to do.
No, it won’t happen again.” Mr. Li said.
"I can't blame your father. You two have grown up together since childhood. You don't know how to get fame, but you only know how to look for flowers and people. You do nothing all day long, and you don't live up to your expectations at all. However, the one who least lives up to your expectations unexpectedly gets
You have gained His Majesty's recognition and been made a fourth-rank official. Naturally, your father was not convinced, and when he saw that you were still the same as before, he became angry. You must also consider your father, and you must not continue to be so decadent in the future."
the lady said.
"My son knows." Mr. Li said.
"If you are willing to stand up for yourself and become successful early on, I believe Miss Prime Minister will also look high on you." Madam said.
"Mother, even if I have a future, Yue'er will not marry someone like me. I heard that the prime minister's wife wanted to send Yue'er to the palace. When she heard that she was engaged to the prince, my son was also frightened.
Jump." Mr. Li said.
"Even so, you can't give up on yourself. Mother has no other expectations. She just hopes that you can marry a filial daughter-in-law." The lady said.
Anling Houfu
"He'er, what's going on? Did Mr. Zhao really spend the night in Yanyulou? Did he have another problem and can't control his legs?" Mrs. An Linghou asked.
Yun He shook his head and said, "I don't believe he would do this. If he really stayed in Yanyu Tower, there should be a reason."
"He'er, don't be deceived by his words. When you see him, you must ask him carefully. If he deceives you, mother will never agree to your marriage," the lady said.
Although Mr. Zhao has not yet come to propose marriage, Yun He has already told his wife about their mutual love. At first, the wife was a little hesitant, wondering whether Mr. Zhao was sincere towards Yun He. But then she changed her mind and realized that Yun He's eyes would not be the same.
Difference.
She originally planned to test the master secretly when the time came, but she did not expect that such rumors would spread outside. She was worried that her daughter would be wronged, so she hurried over to comfort her.
"Mother, don't worry. If my daughter finds out that he is cheating on me, I will naturally not compromise. I don't believe the rumors outside. Maybe he was wronged." Yun He said.
Yun He believed Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao often went to Yanyu Tower before and brought back several girls from Yanyu Tower. But he did it to cover up himself. This time, I believe there must be a compelling reason.
While the mother and daughter were talking, they heard the news that Mr. Zhao was coming. After hearing this, the mother said, "Mom is still worried. How about asking her to ask him?"
Yun He nodded and said, "That's fine."
When Madam and Yun He rushed to the front hall, Mr. Zhao had already entered.
"Madam, Yunhe." Mr. Zhao said.
"The capital has been very lively these days, but it's all related to Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao came here specially to explain to He'er?" Mrs. An Linghou asked.
After hearing what Madam said, Mr. Zhao knew that Madam had known about their relationship for a long time, so he said to Madam, "Madam must have known that Yun He and I are in love by asking this, and I have done nothing wrong to Yun He."
It's just a rumor that's half true and half false, I won't lie to Yun He."
"What do you mean by this? Half truth and half falsehood mean you really went to Yanyu Tower?" the lady asked.
"Master Li asked me to go out for a party. I suggested going to Nancheng Tavern, but I didn't expect Master Qin to reject it, so we went to Yanyulou. After drinking two glasses of wine, I found that I was gradually losing consciousness. When I woke up
, I was actually in the Hades Mansion. It turned out that Mr. Li put medicine in my cup and planned to plot against me. But I didn’t expect that Mr. Nanfeng would just find me and take me out of Yanyu Tower. I would stay in Yanyu.
The person in the building is Mr. Li." Mr. Zhao said.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Qin, is there another Mr. Liu? You two are famous for being idle in the capital. You go to Yanyu Tower or gambling house all day long. After you came back from Licheng, you also got your Majesty
Why do you still want to get together with them because of their appreciation? You knew exactly where Yanyu Tower was, but you still went in. You were clearly willing to drug you," said Mrs. An Linghou.
"Madam, what I said is true. We have known each other since we were children. We used them to disguise ourselves, and I felt sorry for myself before going to the appointment. But I didn't expect that Mr. Li would actually plot against me." Mr. Zhao explained.
"Disguise yourself? What do you mean?" Mrs. An Linghou asked.
Mr. Zhao looked at Yun He. Yun He naturally understood what Mr. Zhao meant and said to his wife: "Mother, we will discuss this matter later. I believe he did not lie to me, otherwise Mr. Nanfeng would not have sent him to the hospital."
Pluto's Mansion. I just don't quite understand. Since you guys grew up together, why would you plot against you behind your back? Or is there someone behind it and it's just him?"
Seeing that her daughter believed in Mr. Zhao, Mrs. An Linghou naturally had nothing to say. However, she would not let her daughter suffer. She stood up and said to Mr. Zhao: "If you can't explain clearly to Yun He, don't do it again in the future."
Come again."
After the lady finished speaking, she left, leaving the front room to the two of them.
"Yunhe, do you believe what I said?" Mr. Zhao said.
"I believe what you said, and you won't lie to me. But this time you were plotted, and Master Nanfeng helped you escape. But what about next time? What are you going to do?" Yun He said.
"I understand what you mean. I will be more careful in the future. Mr. Li is plotting against me. He is embarrassed to see me again even if he thinks about it." Mr. Zhao said.
"Who instigated it? Don't you have any clue?" Yun He asked.
"Actually, Princess Pluto has interrogated Mr. Li, and this matter seems to be related to Yue'er. However, Mr. Li is unwilling to confess, and even after being beaten fifty times by Princess Pluto, he still won't let go." Mr. Zhao said.
