Chapter 159 Visiting

After returning to the hall and getting the map, Yu Zheng said loudly, "Zhuiyun Zhufeng."

"I'm here." Zhuiyun Zhufeng walked into the house quickly and bowed to wait for orders.

Yu Zheng said in a deep voice, "Immediately lead people to the west to chase Jiang Shaohe separately, and there must be no mistakes."

"Yes." Zhuiyun Zhufeng accepted the order and turned away.

Sun Hechuan followed to arrange the personnel and informed them of the direction of pursuit.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Zhou Boxu stood up and said, "I still have official business to attend to, so I'll leave first."

Yu Zheng nodded and watched Zhou Boxu leave the hall.

The house was silent. Only Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu were left in the huge hall, while Leng Xing and Tan Yuhou were outside.

Looking at Jiang Shu, whose face was sad and pale, Yu Zheng walked over and said softly, "I'll take you home."

Jiang Shu looked up at him and said, "I haven't figured out how to tell my parents yet."

The murder by his closest brother was undoubtedly a huge blow to Jiang's father.

Thinking of Jiang's father's grief-stricken look, Jiang Shu didn't know how to start.

But Jiang Shaohua had already been imprisoned, and the matter couldn't be kept secret for long even if he wanted to.

"I'll tell you." Yu Zheng stretched out his hand and pulled her up.

Jiang Shu was shocked and trembled, "You... are going to see my parents?"

What does this count as? Is it a formal visit to meet the parents?

Speaking of which, Yu Zheng has not met Jiang's father and mother properly.

At the birthday banquet of Jing'an Marquis's Mansion last year, Jiang's father and mother saw Yu Zheng from a distance, but they didn't say a word. Yu Zheng was afraid that they didn't even remember them.

The last time Yu Zheng went to Jiang's house, Jiang's father was in a coma, and Jiang's mother had been guarding Jiang's father's bed, but she had never seen Yu Zheng.

Later, although Yu Zheng sent Jiang Shu home several times, he never got out of the car and went in.

"What? Your parents don't want to see me?" Yu Zheng's heart tightened, and he felt a little panic.

Jiang Shu hurriedly said, "No, they have wanted to see you for a long time."

Yu Zheng was relieved when he heard it, and took her hand and said, "Let's go."

After Zhuiyun left, Yu Zheng replaced a guard to drive the car.

Leng Xing and Tan Yu sat on the left and right of the car door, staring at the door tacitly.

Yu Zheng held Jiang Shu's hand all the time, and his silent companionship gradually dispelled the coldness in her heart.

When they arrived at Jiang's house, Jiang Shu's depression had dissipated a lot. Thinking that Yu Zheng was about to meet her parents, she became nervous.

After getting off the car and entering Jiang's house, Yu Zheng kept holding Jiang Shu's hand, not caring about the looks of the Jiang family's servants.

It was lunch time. Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, and Jiang Ning were sitting in the flower hall, discussing what dishes would be available and how many bowls of porridge they would drink.

Jiang's father said: "If you ask me, on such a hot day, I still have to have a bowl of mung bean soup to relieve the heat."

Jiang Ning frowned: "I drink it every day. I don't know if it will relieve the heat. Anyway, I am tired of drinking it."

"Then let's switch to sour plum drink today." Jiang's mother suggested.

While the three of them were discussing, Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng entered the flower hall.

"Father, mother." Jiang Shu called softly.

Jiang's father and Jiang's mother heard the sound and looked over, and were stunned when they saw Yu Zheng beside Jiang Shu.

This man has a tall and straight posture, a jade crown and brocade clothes, a handsome face, and a noble temperament. He looked a little unfamiliar, yet familiar. Where had I seen him before?

Jiang Ning stood up suddenly, surprised and said, "Prince, why are you here?"

Prince? Which prince? King Jing's king?

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang looked at each other, as if awakened from a dream.

"Hello, Prince." Mother Jiang stood up and saluted.

Father Jiang hurriedly went to get a cane, and wanted to stand up and salute with the cane.

His broken leg was not healed yet, and he needed the cane to stand.

Seeing this, Yu Zheng hurriedly stopped him: "Uncle Jiang has a leg problem, so there is no need to be polite."

"I didn't know that Your Majesty was driving, and I am sorry for being impolite." Father Jiang looked panicked, fearing that Yu Zheng would be dissatisfied with Jiang Shu because of this.

Yu Zheng said slowly, "I am sorry for my intrusive visit. Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang, please don't blame me."

"Please take a seat, Your Highness." After saying this, Jiang's mother whispered to the maid to serve tea and asked the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes.

Yu Zheng came to the house suddenly, and Jiang's father and mother were not prepared at all. They were inevitably nervous, fearing that they would be impolite and be looked down upon by Yu Zheng.

It was indeed not in accordance with the rules to meet guests at the dining table in the flower hall.

Jiang's mother was hesitating whether to change to the living room, but Yu Zheng had already lifted his skirt and sat down, not caring.

Jiang Shu sat next to Yu Zheng and pursed his lips and said, "Your Highness came here today because he has something important to tell you."

When Jiang's father and mother heard this, they sat up straight with a solemn look on their faces.

Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng saw their posture and knew that they had misunderstood.

"Dad, Mom, it's not what you think." Jiang Shu blushed and didn't dare to look at Yu Zheng.

Not what they think?

Jiang's father and mother looked puzzled.

Yu Zheng cleared his throat and said, "I'm here to tell you today that Uncle Jiang encountered a landslide in February. It was not an accident, but man-made."

"What?" Jiang's father and the other two were shocked, and then asked, "Who did it?"

"Jiang Shaohua and Jiang Shaohe, the two of them hired a group of bandits in Qi County to artificially create a landslide, pretending it was an accident to kill Uncle Jiang."

After a pause, Yu Zheng said, "Not only that, in April, when Shu'er and I were on our way back to Shangjing, the two of them bribed the bandits again and did the same thing to kill Shu'er and me."

"This... what's going on?" Jiang's father and the other two were confused.

Yu Zheng slowly recounted the whole story.

Just as Jiang Shu expected, Jiang's father turned pale after hearing this, and was so distressed that he couldn't speak.

Jiang's mother was also shocked for a while before scolding: "Two ruthless people, have their consciences been eaten by dogs!"

"Fortunately, my father and sister are lucky and didn't let them succeed." Jiang Ning pounded the table angrily.

Jiang's father didn't say anything, and Jiang's mother was afraid that he would be angry and suffocate, so she hurried to pat his back to calm him down.

"Dad, don't be sad. They don't deserve it." Jiang Shu grabbed Jiang's father's shaking hand and tried to comfort him.

Jiang's mother also said, "Yes, don't get upset. It's just what they want."

Jiang Ning also tried to persuade him.

After a long pause, Jiang's father sighed and said in a weak voice, "I didn't know they hated me so much. If I had known this, I shouldn't have brought them to Beijing."

The betrayal and murder of his fellow brothers was like a blunt knife to Jiang's father, suddenly stabbing into his heart and cutting him so hard that he felt pain.

"This is their fault. Uncle Jiang doesn't have to blame himself." Yu Zheng frowned and tried to persuade him.

"Alas!" Jiang's father shook his head and sighed. It felt like a handful of dry grass was blocking his throat. He was so uncomfortable that he couldn't speak.

Jiang's mother fed him some water, and he felt better.

At this time, the maid came in with dishes.

One dish after another with good color, fragrance and taste was placed on the table, but several people had no appetite.

Finally, it was Jiang's father who picked up the chopsticks and said, "Eat. We are sorry for not treating you well today and neglecting the prince."

Yu Zheng didn't mind of course, and picked up the chopsticks to pick up a chicken wing for Jiang Shu.

Seeing that Yu Zheng looked at Jiang Shu with tenderness and doting in his eyes, Jiang's father and mother were slightly relieved. It's

ridiculous to think about it.

Blood relatives tried their best to take their lives, but Yu Zheng, who had nothing to do with them, tried his best to save their lives. It's really hard to say who is close and distant in this world.

It's a pity that the timing is not right today, and the matter between Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng can only be discussed next time.
