Chapter 181 He is still alive
"Sir Zheng! My time is very precious. Since you have no sincerity in speaking to me, please do not seek me out again. It is truly pitiful for that woman who is so devoted to her husband."
Shen Zhao stood up and was about to leave.
Zheng Shi's heart skipped a beat. He knew that once General Chu left, the truth of that year would never be revealed again.
He and Yunniang could never go back to the past.
After receiving the news yesterday, he sent people to secretly look for Doctor Li. After the man surnamed Li came out of the General's Mansion, he seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
There was no trace of him at all.
It is unlikely that he escaped. I guess he was caught by someone.
He also thought about asking the person behind him for help, but that person only had someone reply to him with one sentence.
Those who do great things are most afraid of romantic relationships.
He understood that the man was not going to care.
Chen Zhao was also gambling, whether Zheng Shi’s original wife was more important in his heart, or the master behind him was more important in his heart.
One is love, the other is power.
It depends on what choice Zheng Shi makes.
Just as Shen Zhao's hand was on the door frame, Zheng Shi called her.
"Please stay, General Chu. It's the Ninth Prince!"
Zheng Shi breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was the Ninth Prince's man, he had never seen the Ninth Prince before.
Every time someone came to deliver a message to him, it was a man in black with only his eyes showing.
Over the years, the Ninth Prince had only asked him to pay close attention to the developments in the court.
The reason why he dared to mention the Ninth Prince in front of General Chu was because three years ago the Ninth Prince began to ask him to focus on everything in the General's Mansion.
If necessary, you can help the General's Mansion.
This shows that General Chu is different in the heart of the Ninth Prince.
Chen Zhao's hands froze in an instant. She had guessed many people, but she never thought that the person behind Zheng Shi would be the Ninth Prince!
The legend that should have died long ago.
The old emperor's ninth brother, born of the same mother, and the late emperor's most beloved ninth prince.
The only prince who chose his own name.
The reason why he is a legend is that the Ninth Prince is born with a beautiful face, more delicate than a woman, but he is the first iron-blooded war god general in the history of Southern Chu.
A person with a stark contrast between appearance and personality.
He is different from other generals, cruelty and bloodthirstiness are his hallmarks.
Everyone was in awe of him and at the same time wished he would disappear.
He is cruel not only to his enemies, but also to those around him.
Even if it was a deputy general who had followed him for many years, he would be killed if he did not meet his expectations.
Rumor has it that he once ordered his soldiers to massacre all the people in a city.
At that time, the Ninth Prince's reputation was so great that it could stop a child from crying at night, and it frightened everyone.
People say that the old emperor forced the emperor to abdicate and rebel because of the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince died before the old emperor forced the emperor to abdicate. No one knew how he died. His naked body was hung on the city gate.
That was the day after his triumphant return.
He did not die at the hands of the enemy, but died in the capital of Southern Chu.
These were all rumors. She was born the year the Ninth Prince died, and when she was young she often heard adults talk about the Ninth Prince's legendary life.
My father once lamented that if the Ninth Prince were still alive, the Kingdom of Southern Chu would have dominated the world long ago.
I didn't expect that the rumored Ninth Prince is still alive.
The shock in Shen Zhao's heart was no less than when she and Chu Mu swapped bodies.
She slowly withdrew her hand and turned to look at Zheng Shi.
This man, who came from a poor family, climbed step by step to the position of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.
"Is he still alive?"
The "he" she was referring to was the Ninth Prince.
Zheng Shi nodded solemnly: "The prince is still alive, but I have never seen him. I only know that he is the master behind the scenes."
"How can you be sure that the man is the Ninth Prince? The Ninth Prince died more than 20 years ago, and his death is known to everyone!"
Since Zheng Shi had never seen the Ninth Prince, how could he be sure that the man was the Ninth Prince?
If the Ninth Prince is still alive, why is he hiding?
The current emperor is his closest brother, born of the same mother.
None of this is justifiable.
"Military Order, this humble official has seen it with his own eyes!"
"Military order!" Shen Zhao exclaimed in surprise. Didn't that thing disappear long ago?
When the Ninth Prince was still alive, the military order in his hand was lost.
It has never appeared since.
The military secretary can lead the three armies, and the commanders of the three armies all obey his orders.
If the Grand Council was still there, the Li royal family wouldn't have to feel so aggrieved now, being manipulated by old man Chen and old man Wu.
Shen Zhao still had some doubts as to whether the person behind Zheng Shi was the Ninth Prince.
This is all so weird.
"What did the Ninth Prince ask you to do? And how did you come to serve under him?" Shen Zhao sat back in his seat.
Zheng Shi told her everything.
It was by chance that Zheng Shi became the Ninth Prince's man. The position of the Minister of Justice was not easy for Zheng Shi to hold.
One can imagine how dangerous the journey was. He nearly lost his life many times while competing with others for official positions.
This is the consequence of not having family protection.
During an assassination attempt, Zheng Shi nearly died, but was saved by the Ninth Prince's men.
Zheng Shi had selfish motives and did not tell General Chu that the Ninth Prince had asked him to focus on the General's Mansion.
He betrayed the Ninth Prince, which was already a betrayal of kindness. If the other party was not General Chu, he would not have betrayed the Ninth Prince to anyone else.
"General, could you please tell me what happened in my house back then?" Zheng Shi was eager to know the truth of the matter.
Chen Zhao stood up and said, "The emperor's edict will soon arrive at my residence at this hour. Lord Zheng, please come with me to the general's residence as a guest."
Zheng was delighted and said, "Thank you, General."
As soon as the two returned to the General's Mansion, the palace maid who came to announce the imperial decree arrived at the General's Mansion.
Along with the imperial edict came a large number of rewards.
Everyone in the General's Mansion came out to welcome the imperial edict, even Chu Renjie, who locked himself up because it was inconvenient for him to move, was forced to come out.
The palace people who announced the decree had left, but everyone was still standing there in a daze.
They couldn't believe that what they had just heard and the objects in front of them were real.
Chu Mu looked at A Zhao with moist eyes.
Uncertainly, "My husband, my mother and I were both conferred the title of First Rank Consort, right?"
Before Chen Zhao could reply, Zheng Shi behind him said sarcastically, "Sister-in-law is so happy she's silly. I'd like to congratulate you. It's a good thing the Lin family came to our house and made a scene that day. Otherwise, who knows who would have been given the title of Consort of the Imperial Noble Consort."
Zheng's face was twisted with jealousy, and she no longer cared about anything else.
Especially when her husband told her yesterday to pack her bags and leave in two days, she completely let herself go.
That coward Chu Renqing still wanted to take the mother and daughter back to the shabby old house in Jinzhou.
Why!
Why can the two of them, Lao Er and his wife, who are so naughty and unreasonable, stay in Kyoto City, but she and Miaomiao can't stay in Kyoto City?
Although the old lady is not the third son’s biological mother, the eldest and the third son have the same father.
The third son can support the second and third sons, so why can't he support the first son?
Zheng Shi still didn't know that Chu Renqing was not a member of the Chu family at all.
The outside world only heard rumors that Chu Mu was not the old lady's son, but there was no news that Chu Renqing and Chu Renjie were not members of the Chu family.
After all, apart from Chu Renqing, Shen Zhao and Chu Mu, everyone else was kept in the dark.
Chu Renjie lowered his head silently. He hated everyone now.
He hated his mother for knowing the truth a long time ago but hiding it from him, and watching him make a fool of himself and lose face in front of the world.
He hated the third brother and was very sincere to him. As the third brother was the commander of a team, he didn't believe that the third brother didn't know his true identity.
The third brother must have deliberately designed this to make the mother and son kill each other in order to avenge the old lady.
I hate the bastard eldest brother even more. He must know all the truth just like the third brother, but he watched him fall into the quagmire with his own eyes.
The boss must be very happy.
He also hated his wife and children. The slut Liu transferred the family property without his knowledge, and his two unfilial sons now regarded him as a disgrace.
When he finally turns the tables, he will make these people pay with their blood.
"Brother, take care of your people." Shen Zhao glanced at Chu Renqing and said.
Zheng and Chu Miao will be taken to the Du family. Her words were a double entendre.
Shen Zhao looked at the different expressions of the Chu family members, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The two wolf cubs' eyes were glued to the rewards.
If the incident had not been exposed, these items would have belonged to their second branch.
Shen Zhao deliberately looked at Chu Shanjun and Chu Shanan and said:
After you provide the great god cat to eat raw pickled body swap, the general tore his white moonlight
