Just as Zhou Yunshen was distracted, Jiang Shuyue jumped out of the carriage and headed straight for the gate of the Shangshu Mansion.
"Miss, you need to go this way."
A maid came out from the corner gate and saluted Jiang Shuyue indifferently.
Jiang Shuyue: [Isn't this Wang Po, my mother's servant? Today is my day to return home, and yet she's asking me to go in through the corner door. She's literally stepping on my face and rubbing it against the ground!]
Zhou Yunshen paused in his action of lifting the car curtain.
Is this how the Shangshufu treats his wife? Very nice.
Wang Po said impatiently: "Miss, the old lady and the lady are waiting, you'd better hurry up and don't waste time."
"What if I am delayed?"
Zhou Yunshen got out of the car, walked to Jiang Shuyue and held her waist. Jiang Shuyue took the opportunity to snuggle into his arms.
"Don't be angry, my Lord. It's all my fault that I didn't please my mother, so you had to leave with me through the corner gate. I apologize to you on my mother's behalf."
Jiang Shuyue: [You biased bastard, you've hit a wall now, haven't you? The villain is known for holding grudges. Get them, get them hard, no need to save face for me!]
Zhou Yunshen narrowed his cold eyes slightly, and a layer of sternness and coldness covered his cold face.
"It seems that after becoming the Minister, Jiang An has become arrogant. He even dared to let me go through the corner gate. This is rubbing my face on the ground."
Jiang Shuyue blinked: [Tongzi, listen, the villain's words are exactly the same as what I thought!]
System: [To be honest, your compatibility is quite high.]
Zhou Yunshen was in a good mood. He held her hand in his palm and rubbed it gently.
Wang Po was terrified.
Jiang Shuyue said she was going back home, but she didn't say that the Marquis would also come.
This man was the emperor's study partner. They had been as close as brothers since childhood. He also commanded a million troops and was a famous killing god.
If she knew he was coming, she wouldn't dare let him go through the corner gate even if she had a hundred guts!
Wang Po quickly bowed and said, "I didn't know that the Marquis had arrived. Please forgive me! I will open the door for you right away."
"You didn't know I was coming, so you opened the corner gate, but when you did, you opened the main gate. So, it sounds like you're bullying my wife alone?"
Wang Po's legs trembled with fear. "No, because the main gate is under repair, I asked you to go through the corner gate."
Jiang Shuyue: [Hehe, I haven't walked through the main gate since I came back. Is it also under repair? Even if the gate is made of gold, it should be repaired by now, right?]
Zhou Yunshen: "Someone come here."
"I'm here."
"Since the gate of the Shangshu Mansion is broken, there is no need to keep it. Just tear it down."
Qiye kicked the door with a loud bang. The door flew out, bounced a few times on the ground, and lay on the bluestone floor.
Zhou Yunshen: "Now, you can practice slowly."
Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she was stunned. That was a door that weighed a hundred pounds. How could it be kicked away just like that?
Jiang Shuyue: [Qiye's kick just now pierced my heart! So handsome! I wonder who's more handsome, him or the villain?]
System: [According to the setting, the villain's combat power is ranked first. If he hadn't been ambushed, he wouldn't have ended up like that.]
Jiang Shuyue: [That means I'm just heartless! ]
Qiye was trying his best to endure in the back.
Many people say that the master is inhumane, but the lady is the first one to say that the master is heartless.
Jiang Shuyue: [But it's okay, I have a lot of ideas, so we can complement each other!]
"Sister, how could you do this?"
Jiang Liuli, wearing a light blue long dress, ran out holding Jiang's mother's arm.
She saw Zhou Yunshen holding Jiang Shuyue's hand, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and then turned into a gentle look in the blink of an eye.
"Sister, your return home is a happy occasion. Mother and I have prepared your favorite food for you this morning, but how could you instigate the Marquis to tear down the door? If word gets out, everyone will laugh at you."
Jiang Shuyue's eyes were filled with tears, and she dived into Zhou Yunshen's arms with tears in her eyes.
"It's all my fault. When Wang Po told me to go through the corner gate, I should have dragged the Marquis along and gone through quickly, and all this trouble wouldn't have happened."
"My Lord, it's all my fault. I made you bear this bad reputation. Please punish me, Lord."
Jiang Liuli was stunned.
In the past, Jiang Shuyue would be so anxious that she would jump up and down, and the more she explained, the more confusing it became, and in the end, she was disliked.
But why did he change his tactics today, contrary to his usual behavior?
Zhou Yunshen patted her shoulder gently. "I always enter and exit the palace through the Qiankun Main Gate. The Shangshu Mansion was disrespectful to me. I only demolished one of his gates for my wife's sake. What crime have you committed?"
"In my opinion, Madam is not only right, but the Shangshu Mansion should also thank you."
Zhou Yunshen glanced coldly at Jiang's mother: "Madam Shangshu, what do you think?"
Mother Jiang was shaking with anger.
Ever since her husband was promoted to Shangshu, everyone has been polite to her and no one has ever dared to speak to her like that.
But this person is the Marquis of Zhennan, and she can't afford to offend him.
Mother Jiang forced a smile and nodded. "Your Majesty is right. Today's matter was due to our inconsiderateness, but Yue'er was also very rude. You said you were going back to your parents' home, and you even dragged Your Majesty along with you. Don't you know that Your Majesty is very busy with official duties?"
Jiang Shuyue: [Do you think I came back alone so you can bully me?]
"Besides, other people come back as couples, but if I come back alone, wouldn't that just confirm that I'm not favored, making it easier for you to bully me even more?"
Mother Jiang was stunned. Who was talking just now?
She looked around but couldn't see anyone speaking, but this voice...
Mother Jiang's eyes were fixed on Jiang Shuyue.
Jiang Shuyue snorted inwardly: [System, she's glaring at me! I really want to glare back, but unfortunately I have to maintain my image. How pathetic!]
System: [Don't be angry, don't be angry. Let me tell you something. Actually, your biological mother, Liu Rulan, and your father had an affair while drunk, and your father had no choice but to marry her.]
Jiang Shuyue: [What? The older generation is having so much fun?]
Jiang Mu's cheeks turned red.
Only the two elders knew about this. Even her own sister didn't know. How could this girl and the system know about it?
System: [However, your mother once had a favorite young man, and that young man was also interested in her.]
Your father was just a newly minted seventh-rank official at the time. He had no money and no connections, so it would take him forever to rise to the top.
Jiang Shuyue became excited: [I feel like there's something big inside! ]
The system chuckled: [That's right! Your father drugged me!]
Your maternal grandfather was the Minister of Revenue at the time, and your uncle was a fourth-rank governor of the grain department. There was only one unmarried daughter in the family.
Your father had evil intentions and drugged her during a poetry gathering. Once your mother became pregnant with your eldest brother, it was a matter of course for her to marry your father.
[Your father is amazing! With just one packet of medicine, he not only got a wife and a son, but also rocketed to fame. From then on, he was unstoppable!]
Jiang Shuyue clapped her hands furiously in her mind: [This old guy looks so gentle, but I didn't expect him to be so fierce. Awesome!]
