Wu Ziyu paused and looked at the sister beside him. After gritting his teeth and getting dressed, he helped Wu Zhiyu put on his clothes one by one. She is now used to Huang Qiong's troubles, but this is the first time for Wu Zhiyu. It's daybreak now, and the children will be back soon. Although Huang Qiong has left, the scene in front of him is not good for the child after all.
After dressing Wu Zhiyu, Wu Ziyu held her cousin in her arms and said: "Sister, this may be the fate of you and me. We all had such a relationship with him under confused circumstances. And he This person is very possessive and will not give up once he gets it. You have only two options now, one is to let him find Sima Hong and his family. I will take you away in an open and honest manner."
"I'm not trying to scare you, he will really do this. And your father-in-law and man's future is currently in his hands, and you have not been able to add grandchildren to their family. I think your father-in-law and man must have Knowing what happened today, I might give you to him. There are too many such shameless officials in Da Qi Dynasty."
"In addition, just like me, don't make any noise and maintain this relationship with him quietly. To put it bluntly, you just want to be his lover. As for which path to take, you still have to rely on yourself in the end. However, there are some things I should say. That's right. If you really leave him, you may not be happy. You should be aware of your own beauty, and you have been harassed in recent years. "
"The Sima family has fallen into decline over the years. Faced with so many tigers, leopards and wolves, I am a little surprised that you can still stay with Sima Rui intact today. My former sister-in-law is slightly less beautiful and taller than you. Not as good as you, but the steward of Prince Jing's Mansion took a fancy to him and snatched him away. If he hadn't been met by Princess Jing, I'm afraid he would have died long ago, and would have been implicated in the death of the Liu family. "
"Perhaps it is because of these years that although Mr. Sima was exiled, he still had some affection in the officialdom to protect you. But the past is the past, but the situation is different now. Sima Hong is about to resurrect, and Sima Rui has passed through I will take the test. After saying that, I will also enter the officialdom. As for their family, except for the boss, I have never met them. The remaining two are too utilitarian. "
"If you are targeted by that official, given Sima Rui's character, it would be strange not to offer you up for an official position. We don't want to cause trouble, but how can those powerful people let us go? Zhiyu, just Your beauty will bring you trouble sooner or later. If you are targeted by someone, not only will it be difficult to protect yourself, but even Sima Rui will not provide you with any protection."
"There are some things that I have seen too much in the capital in the past few years. In the past, you two were a couple in need. Now, you are surrounded by Korean maids and Japanese girls, and you are handed over as an object in exchange for what you want. The official position is too normal. For people like them, as long as they can get promoted and make a fortune, they don't care if you are their first wife."
"What's more, you can't have children now. Now that he has passed the imperial examination, he will be regarded as a Jinshi after passing the palace examination. Those officials in the court have always had the habit of selecting sons-in-law among Jinshi. They may not Maybe I'm just waiting for you to ask yourself to leave the court, and then look for someone who can be beneficial to his career and give him a son. That Sima Rui, his father really thinks he is a nerd."
"Although the King of England is not a serious person, he is full of tricks in that regard. But he is also a kind and kind man. If you follow him, even if you go privately like me, he will provide you with protection. At least, He is much more reliable than that man of yours. But I can’t say too much about this kind of thing. You should think about it yourself as to where to go.”
After Wu Ziyu finished speaking, Wu Zhiyu raised her head and looked at her cousin, who was once so arrogant that she would never bow her head even if she starved to death. She said with a bit of resentment in her tone: "How do you really plan to hide Liu Hu's secrets and follow him for the rest of your life without any name or status? When you get old and lose your lust, you will leave him to fend for yourself? Sister, I haven't seen you change in these years. It’s not you anymore.”
"Have you ever thought that paper can't cover up the fire? Sooner or later, someone will discover your relationship. How will you face Liu Hu when the time comes? In the past, you were so strong and so strong. You are so arrogant. But now you have become so ridiculous and unrestrained?" Looking at her cousin's face, Wu Zhiyu hesitated for a moment and finally swallowed the word.
It's just that although Wu Zhiyu swallowed back the last word, why couldn't Wu Ziyu understand the meaning of the words? She looked at her cousin who was better than her in appearance and figure, sighed longly and said: "I don't know where we will go in the future. I will never leave Liu Hu, let alone I will leave the children, but I can’t leave him either.”
"I feel sorry for Liu Hu about this. I have struggled countless times in my heart, wanting to take the children away from here. But every time I see him, my thoughts are all about him in an instant. The days to come , I don’t dare to think too far. If one day, Liu Hu really finds out about my relationship with him, I will have no choice but to let Liu Hu do whatever he wants to do."
Wu Zhiyu heard the sadness and sorrow in Wu Ziyu's words. He was also looking at himself. Although he was over thirty years old, his face was still beautiful. Although she is already a mother of two children, her figure is still not out of shape. Thinking of how frightened she was when she first met Liu Hu, who had a very rude temper, Wu Zhiyu remained silent.
Huang Qiong, who had rushed to the palace at this time, naturally did not know about this conversation between the Wu sisters. The emperor was not generally satisfied with the results of this examination. You know, since the founding of the Qi Dynasty, cheating in imperial examinations has almost never stopped. Even if the court investigates closely, there are always people who take desperate risks. Not to mention the provincial examination, even if the test questions of the general examination were leaked, it would not happen once or twice.
This time Huang Qiong presided over the imperial examination, although the examination questions were temporarily changed for the third session. But it has, to a certain extent, curbed the trend of cheating. However, when the emperor was satisfied with the result, Huang Qiong's workload doubled. Not only did the emperor assign another workload to Huang Qiong, but he also came and gave Huang Qiong full responsibility for the imperial examination.
As for the promise I had made to Huang Qiong and the Guilin County Prince to arrange a marriage with the Guilin County Prince during the Chinese New Year, it was as if it had never happened. The emperor seemed to have forgotten about this matter. The emperor didn't mention it, but the Prince of Guilin, who was eager to return, couldn't sit still. After just a few urgings, the emperor agreed well and let Qin Tian oversee the selection of the date.
But when it comes to implementation, it has been delayed. Not only the ministers in the court could not understand the emperor's behavior, but also Huang Qiong. Huang Qiong had a vague feeling that he, the emperor, kept delaying this matter because he actually did not want to let the Guilin County Prince leave the capital. He just felt that the emperor was vaguely investigating something.
Perhaps because the emperor was busy investigating the prince of Guilin, Huang Qiong forcibly took Lin Hanyan and her daughter, together with Princess Shu and several concubines who were willing to follow Princess Shu, into his separate courtyard. There was no time to investigate. Of course, Huang Qiong also knew that it was not that the emperor did not pursue the case, nor did he acquiesce, but that the emperor could not take care of himself now.
At the moment, the in-laws of Guilin County Prince are his biggest opponents. As for what the emperor was secretly investigating, he never mentioned it to Huang Qiong. However, what came from King Yong gave Huang Qiong a bad feeling in his heart. It should be said that it is quite appropriate for King Yong to do this.
The crown prince of Guilin County knew exactly where he went and who he saw when he went out every day. King Yong told Huang Qiong that the prince of Guilin County had met the King of Liang of Northern Liao several times in a brothel. It was even found out that when two people stayed in prostitutes, their rooms were adjacent.
As for the owner behind this brothel, King Yong searched for nearly half a month but could not find out. It was only found out that this brothel was listed under the name of a foreign minister of the Ministry of Rites who had returned to his hometown after serving as an official in the court and was originally from Huguang South Road. But this person is the boss, but no one knows. Because this boss has never been seen since the establishment of this brothel seven years ago.
All matters are taken care of by an elderly manager. What makes people even more suspicious is that all the prostitutes, teapots, maids, and servants in this brothel are all southerners. Although it is opened in the capital, it never hires people from the capital, or even from the north. Did the two people meet privately in adjacent rooms? Because King Yong cannot place anyone inside, it has never been certain.
But one thing is for sure, these two go to that brothel every time. In the name of occupying half of the floor, no one else was allowed to go to the second floor of the brothel except for a few prostitutes. Even people in the brothel were not allowed to go upstairs. As for other guests, no matter how much money they spend, it won’t do. It's like the entire second floor has been reserved for them in advance.
And King Yong personally went deep into the tiger's den several times to check, and even tried to find a way to make friends with the Prince of Liang or the prince of Guilin County Prince's Palace. These two people were not generally indifferent to King Yong. That King of Liang ignored King Yong at all. King Yong tried to test the King of Liang several times in the name of a treat, but he was rejected. As for the prince, he simply left as soon as King Yong left.
Even King Yong, who always had great powers in the capital, could not find out the boss behind the scenes. It can be seen that the background of this brothel is definitely not something that a foreigner can do. In the capital, there are dozens of high- to mid-range brothels registered in Jingzhao Mansion. There are many low-class brothels and book houses that are not registered and hidden among the people.
How could it be that these two people met more than once in the same brothel by such a coincidence? It was even such a coincidence that in this brothel with dozens of rooms and dozens of prostitutes, it was a coincidence that two people lived next door to each other? The most important thing is that his brother-in-law, the dignified prince of Guilin County Prince's Palace, actually visited a brothel in such a grand manner.
If the Guilin County Prince is not in the capital at this time, and the crown prince's true nature is exposed without restraint, there are still some excuses. But the key thing is that the Prince of Guilin is in the capital at this time. As the crown prince, he still does such ridiculous things. Does he really think that his position as crown prince is so secure? It is almost unimaginable for any family to have such an absurd heir.
However, the heir was so upright, and under the eyes of the emperor, he lingered in the brothel and Chu Palace all day long, but the Guilin County Prince who was also in Beijing did not show any sign. That is, there is only one possibility. His brother-in-law is not going to Nianhuasuliu at all. Going to such a place is just to cover up something in disguise.
Thinking of this person's seemingly unintentional encounter with the King of Liang in Northern Liao, is there really something invisible about his future father-in-law and the King of Liang in Northern Liao?
