Chapter Two Hundred and Eight: Treat Evil with Evil
ps: The first update of today.
To be fair, Zhao Hongrun did not deliberately conceal his identity from Miss Su.
Thinking back to when he first met Miss Su, he was easily criticized because he, as a prince, went to and fro in Fireworks Willow Alley, so he adopted the pseudonym Jiang Run.
Originally, Zhao Hongrun simply admired Miss Su's beauty and quiet personality. Although she was his type, he also knew in his heart that as a prince, he had almost no freedom in marriage.
Speakable.
It doesn't mean that if he likes a woman like Miss Su, he can marry her.
To put it inappropriately, the status of the two is really very different. Zhao Hongrun's mother-in-law Shen Shufei may acquiesce because she loves her son, but Emperor Wei may not easily approve this marriage.
After all, to put it bluntly, Miss Su's background is a bit embarrassing. Even if she is a pure shepherd, marrying Zhao Hongrun as a concubine will most likely be opposed by the Ji family.
Look at Zhao Hongrun's brothers, Prince Hongli of the East Palace, Hongyu of Yong, Hongjing of Xiang, Hongjiang of Yan, and Hongxin of Qing. Which one of them did not marry the daughter of a famous family as a princess? Even if they are concubines, they must be of pure origin.
The daughter of a noble family.
Therefore, during that period, Zhao Hongrun only had an admiration attitude towards Miss Su.
But who would have expected that Luo Wenzhong, Luo Rong and his son, in order to frame him, designed him to sleep with Miss Su in her bedroom for one night, and on this night, Zhao Hongrun and Miss Su had a skin-to-skin relationship.
relative.
When the situation developed to this point, it had deviated from Zhao Hongrun's original plan.
Fortunately, Miss Su was the kind of woman he liked, so Zhao Hongrun simply made the mistake.
However, how to place Miss Su became Zhao Hongrun's biggest headache at that time.
After all, Zhao Hongrun was still living in Wenzhao Pavilion in the palace at that time. He couldn't secretly hide Miss Su in the palace and hide her beauty in a golden house, right? If anyone found out about this, the Zongfu would not be able to pass the test.
Therefore, Zhao Hongrun planned to delay it until he left the pavilion and found a house. After all, hiding Miss Su in the palace was safer than hiding her in the palace.
Later, because of Princess Yulong's relationship, when Zhao Hongrun led his army on an expedition, in order to prevent Miss Su from worrying that he would be in danger after going to the battlefield, he did not reveal the truth, but kindly deceived her, saying that he was going back to his hometown.
It's a coincidence that just when Zhao Hongrun defeated Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo and returned triumphantly, because he wanted to "revenge" his father, he returned to the palace one step ahead of time, which made Bailiba, the general of the Junshui Camp, helpless.
A fair-skinned soldier pretended to be Zhao Hongrun.
But by chance, Miss Su, who was already suspicious of Zhao Hongrun's identity, saw the "fake His Highness Prince Su" on the street, and she dispelled her suspicion that her lover Jiang Run was Prince Su Hongrun.
So when the prince of Yuanyang Prince Zhao Chengxiu suddenly appeared, and he even boasted that he was Zhao Hongrun's cousin, Zhao Hongrun really didn't know how to persuade Miss Su to let go of her worries.
It seems that I do need a mansion... I don't know if my father will reward me with a mansion this time.
Zhao Hongrun glanced at Miss Su who had a sad face.
He felt that if he confessed everything to Miss Su at this time, it might cause this woman to have wild thoughts and even misunderstand something.
Instead of doing this, it is better to make the mistake and prepare the Prince Su's Mansion first, and then bring this woman to the royal capital to give her a surprise.
I believe that if I confess everything when the time comes, she won't misunderstand.
But before that...
Zhao Hongrun chuckled lightly and said to Miss Su: "I am going to buy a mansion in Daliang. Which street do you think is more suitable?"
"Eh?" Miss Su was stunned for a moment when Zhao Hongrun mentioned this matter so abruptly.
Ask me what I mean? Does this...does this have any purpose?
Miss Su secretly glanced at Zhao Hongrun with a blushing face, then returned to the inner room uneasily and sat in her original position, lost in her thoughts with an uneasy expression.
sharp!
Zongwei Shen Yu and Lu Mu saw this scene and expressed admiration for themselves from the bottom of their hearts.
After getting rid of Miss Su, Zhao Hongrun was finally free to deal with Zhao Chengxiu's matter. He winked at Lu Mu and signaled the latter to close the gauze curtain between the inner room and the outer room, and immediately squatted down again. In front of Zhao Chengxiu, he said calmly: "How are you considering it, His Royal Highness?"
Perhaps Zhao Chengxiu heard the words Zhao Hongrun mentioned when Miss Su whispered to Su Wang Hongrun just now, so that at this moment he felt confident in his heart.
"You don't dare to do anything to His Highness." Zhao Chengxiu looked at Zhao Hongrun and said with a sinister face: "My Highness is the cousin of King Su Hongrun. If you dare to hurt His Highness, have you ever thought about what will happen? What?"
…
Zhao Hongrun stared at Zhao Chengxiu for a long time, shook his head speechlessly, and said bluntly: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. I'll give you two options now, or pay for the damaged cabinets and desks in this house..."
"Absolutely impossible!" Zhao Chengxiu sneered harshly: "My Highness wants to see what you dare to do!"
"Sure?"
"snort!"
"Okay! You don't want to pay compensation, right? It doesn't matter." Zhao Hongrun nodded, stood up, and ordered Shen Yu and Lu Mu: "Shen Yu, take off these people's clothes and throw them into the river at the back window. !...We will find a shop to pawn those clothes later as compensation."
"clear!"
When Shen Yu and Lu Mu heard this, they had malicious looks on their faces.
Seeing this, Zhao Chengxiu, the Crown Prince of Yuanyang, suddenly showed a look of horror on his face and cursed loudly: "Jiang Run, how dare you do this to His Highness?! My Highness is..."
"Are you annoyed? Pa!" Zhao Hongrun motioned to Shen Yu and Lu Mu.
After hearing His Highness's order again, Shen Yu and Lu Mu said nothing, one held Zhao Chengxiu down, and the other forcefully pulled off his pants.
Perhaps because she heard the noise in the outer room, the little girl stuck her head out to see what was going on, but before she could see anything clearly, Zhao Hongrun pressed her head and pushed it back: "What are you looking at, little girl, don't be afraid. What’s the reason for the long needle eye?”
Perhaps he caught a glimpse of something in a hurry, Lu'er spat softly, turned away quickly, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "I'm even older than you."
At this time, the Prince of Yuanyang, Zhao Chengxiu, had already been stripped naked, huddled in a corner, holding his crotch with both hands, and cursed with a blushing face: "Jiang Run, your Highness has no relationship with you!"
"Hmph!" Zhao Hongrun snorted lightly and said calmly: "Throw it out!"
Hearing this, Shen Yu and Lu Mu laughed, grabbed Zhao Chengxiu's arm and threw him into the river outside the back window.
At this time, Zhao Chengxiu couldn't care less about covering up the man's vital parts and struggling hard.
Come to think of it, the dignified Prince Yuanyang was stripped naked in a brothel and thrown into the river behind him. If this matter spread, it would definitely become a national joke.
Because considering this, even if Zhao Chengxiu hates Zhao Hongrun to the core, he has to surrender and beg for mercy: "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang, my highness is willing to pay compensation, my highness is willing to pay compensation."
Zhao Hongrun stood outside the gauze curtain with his hands folded, secretly watching with amusement as Zhao Chengxiu was carried to the window sill by Shen Yu and Lu Mu. He had one leg inside and one leg outside, and there was a possibility of being pushed into the river at any time. Then Embarrassed, I don’t know how to describe it.
"Just now, you have a pretty tough mouth..."
Hearing this, Zhao Chengxiu felt deep hatred in his heart, but he could only soften his words: "Mr. Jiang, my highness knows that I am wrong. Your Excellency has a lot of money. Please spare me for once..."
"You change your tone a little too quickly?" Zhao Hongrun looked at Zhao Chengxiu with a half-smile, then his smile subsided and he said lightly: "Ten thousand taels of silver."
"What?" Zhao Chengxiu opened his eyes wide in horror, and said in disbelief: "For these useless things, you want His Highness ten thousand taels of silver?"
"Shen Yu." Zhao Hongrun shouted casually.
Shen Yu understood what he said, and he and Lu Mu pushed Zhao Chengxiu out of the window with a little force.
In fact, in the final analysis, the two of them were just pretending. If they really wanted to throw Zhao Chengxiu into the river, the Prince of Yuanyang would already be swimming naked in the river.
However, even though it was just a threat, Zhao Chengxiu was so frightened by them that his face turned pale and he quickly said: "My Highness does not have that much money...Don't!...It's true, I only have more than two thousand taels on hand..."
"That's it? Aren't you the Crown Prince?"
Zhao Hongrun frowned. He had completely forgotten the embarrassment he felt when he only had a few dozen taels of silver in his hand.
"Really, absolutely true..."
Zhao Chengxiu was so frightened by Shen Yu and Lu Mu that he almost cried. He hugged the window lattice with both hands and refused to let go.
At this moment, a group of people suddenly walked in from outside the room.
I saw the young man walking at the front, wearing a long satin dress with flowers and birds embroidered with silver thread, brocade boots on his feet, and a jade belt around his waist. On the jade belt was a jade hook, and on the jade hook was another A sword with a black scabbard looks like a jade tree facing the wind.
After this person walked into the house, he caught sight of the scene by the window sill and immediately frowned.
Then, he glanced around the room, then turned his attention to Zhao Hongrun who was standing in the outer room, and sighed helplessly: "Sure enough..."
Zhao Hongmin?
Zhao Hongrun was stunned. He must know that the person in front of him was no stranger. He thought that when he was framed by the Luo family and his son, it was this person who woke him up from the bed where he slept with Miss Su and brought him to the Zongfu.
To be precise, this is Zhao Hongrun's real cousin, the eldest son of his second uncle Zhao Yuanyan, Zhao Hongmin.
It turns out that this guy sent people to the Zongfu to ask for reinforcements, no wonder he seemed to be supporting him.
Glancing at Zhao Chengxiu, Zhao Hongrun suddenly felt enlightened.
At this time, behind Zhao Hongmin, a man who looked like Zhao Chengxiu's bodyguard also saw his highness's embarrassing situation and shouted anxiously: "Why don't you let go of my heir apparent quickly?!"
At the same time, the Prince of Yuanyang, Zhao Chengxiu, also saw the Zongfu Yulin Army breaking in, and quickly called for help loudly: "This clan brother, save me."
Seeing this scene, Zhao Hongmin couldn't help but have a headache.
If others don't recognize Zhao Hongrun, how can he not recognize him?
In other words, it should be called Su Wang Hongrun, who is now famous all over the country! (To be continued.)
