Du Shichu was at a loss for a while, and then suddenly remembered that not long ago, the younger brother in front of him smashed up the palace of his father, Prince An. The reason was that Prince An and his stepmother wanted to use his marriage to get him to marry his stepmother. Naturally, Wu Xiaoran would not agree with his niece, so King An used filial piety to suppress him, saying that as a son, he must listen to me, otherwise he would be treasonous.
Wu Xiaoran is no longer the thin, helpless child who was bullied by his father and stepmother a few years ago. He has grown up and has the ability to resist. Therefore, when King An provokes him like this, he might as well do it. He committed a treasonous act and directly destroyed the palace. I heard that many priceless furnishings were destroyed.
King An was so angry that he wanted to beat the traitor to death, but the traitor was so powerful in martial arts that King An couldn't do anything to him. He couldn't even get close to him, let alone beat him.
King An had no choice but to go to the palace and complain to the emperor, saying that Wu Xiaoran was disrespectful and rebellious, but the emperor was definitely on Wu Xiaoran's side, so he just lightly scolded Wu Xiaoran and told him not to go so far, but at the same time he also He scolded King An, saying that he was too harsh on his eldest son and was not worthy of being a father.
The emperor was very tolerant of his nephew. In his opinion, it was understandable that the nephew would not listen to King An. After all, King An was not only not a competent father, but he also collaborated with his later wife to abuse his nephew. This time it happened again. If you want to interfere in your nephew's marriage and want him to marry the enemy's niece, you will get angry. The nephew is forced to fight back like this.
So such a thing, which many people considered to be treasonous, was handled lightly with the emperor's understatement of extenuating circumstances. Wu Xiaoran was only scolded and given ten sticks, and then he was able to live and breathe again without any hesitation. It did not prevent the emperor from continuing to value him.
When Du Shichu thought of his feat, he burst into laughter and said, "I have forgotten that you have done something even more rebellious and contrary to filial piety than me."
Wu Xiaoran stared intently at her smile, staring at the two small and delicate pear dimples on her lips. He felt that everything about her was extremely sweet, and his hands were ready to move, wanting to squeeze them.
"Then do you think I deny my relatives and am ruthless?" Wu Xiaoran's eyes moved from her dimples to her eyes and asked.
Du Shichu shook his head without hesitation: "Of course not, and I think it would be very satisfying to do this! Such a father should cut off relations with him. Not all parents are right, only foolish filial piety You are the stupidest, well done!”
Wu Xiaoran suddenly smiled slightly, his deep eyes lit up slightly, and whispered: "I knew you were not one of those conventional and pedantic people."
"What? An old antique has joined you?" Du Shichu knew what he meant as soon as he heard it.
"They are all rotten people who are not worthy of being parents, but they want their children to obey them unconditionally. They keep talking about treason and indulging in me, a person who does evil to his biological father. They are ruining the world based on filial piety... Why don't I know that filial piety is so important?" Important, can shake the world of Dayan? If it is really so important? Then why does the imperial court raise troops? Just let all the people in the world be filial sons and see if they can impress the enemy." Wu Xiaoran lowered his eyes and said with disdain.
Du Shichu couldn't stop laughing and said: "We should let those old men go to the border and talk about filial piety to the enemy soldiers. Maybe they can really move a few enemy soldiers, haha..."
Wu Xiaoran looked at her and smiled so hard that his eyebrows and eyebrows curled up, looking overjoyed. The corners of his eyes and brows also showed a smile, and the look he looked at Du Shichu became more and more doting.
Du Shichu's haircut ceremony was held in the palace and was very lively, which once again proved her status in the emperor's heart. Apart from the fact that more people came to get close to her and the invitations at the door were thicker, almost nothing else happened. Nothing has changed. After all, Du Shichu is a young winner in life and has nothing major to do.
It's just that more and more people want to marry her. Every time she goes out, she encounters several young talents. Probably because of Zhou Yizhu's past experience, they don't dare to use any unscrupulous means to gain Du Shichu's favor. They can only create opportunities to "encounter" Du Shichu in a polite way, take the opportunity to get to know her, and secretly show off their talents, looks, and family backgrounds. Everyone wants to open their tails, hoping to attract Du Shichu. I paid attention to this hot cake at the beginning.
In fact, if those young men were handsome and extraordinary, Du Shichu wouldn't mind getting to know and get along with them. After all, they were just acquaintances, not committed to each other, and she treated all good-looking young men equally, no matter how good they were. , they get along well with each other, but she did not clearly accept the hint of which one, nor did she clearly express which one she valued more...
Huh? Speaking of which, she seemed a bit scumbag, like a sea king who cast a wide net. When Du Shichu thought about what he had done, he felt a little guilty, but then he thought about it again. She just gave them a chance to show themselves. After all, There are so many competitors, isn't it normal for her to not choose any one for a while? And some people with strong self-esteem don't want to be chosen by her, so wouldn't they take the initiative to stay away from her? Only those who refuse to give up on her will continue to stay with her. This can be regarded as giving each of them free choice, so what is wrong with her?
With this thought, Du Shichu suddenly felt confident again.
The scumbag wanted to be the king of the sea, but some people didn't want her to be, so as the younger brother, Wu Xiaoran always followed Du Shichu with a handsome face, protecting her from wild bees and butterflies. Some of them were really unstoppable. He Just stare at the person with your eyes, and then go to investigate whether the person has a childhood sweetheart cousin, whether there is a beloved wife or aunt, or whether there is an affectionate and talented confidante in the brothel...
After doing this, he actually found out several hypocrites who had different opinions. Du Shichu only felt that this younger brother was too qualified. Apart from being touched, he was also a little worried that he often "used public affairs for personal gain". His Majesty would There will be no comments.
But Wu Xiaoran said that this was with His Majesty's tacit approval, so she could only shut up.
Later, Wu Xiaoran drove away all the bees and butterflies around Du Shichu. Seeing that she was really bored, he even offered to go out with him on errands to lure her out with him.
Was Du Shichu seduced by him? After being lured, she could only eat, drink and have fun in the capital, but it would be much more interesting to follow Wu Xiaoran on errands in other places, so no matter how the emperor tried to persuade her to stay, she still left the capital with Wu Xiaoran.
Zhao Hui was extremely jealous because of this, and she wanted to go out with the two of them, but Mrs. Zhao did not agree. After all, her fiancé had not yet found her husband.
Du Shichu had no choice but to say goodbye to her with regret.
Wu Xiaoran was a very patient brat, and in the end, like boiling a frog in warm water, he finally coaxed Du Shichu into willingly being with him.
