Chapter 221 No Way to Defend



Zhou Zhaonuan patted his chest to assure him, which seemed to give Zhou Zeyu a reassurance. All the depressed emotions just now left him. Zhou Zeyu followed Zhou Zhaonuan, jumping and skipping.

"That's great! Sister is the best! Long live sister!"

Zhou Zeyu was genuinely happy, and walked all the way to the Pepper Room. He felt much better.

"Sister Nuannuan..."

When Mu Ran heard this timid voice, Zhou Zhaonuan was stunned for a moment. She turned around and found that it was Zhou Bihe. Her eyes were dull at the moment. When she saw Zhou Zhaonuan stop, she ran towards the person regardless of anything.

"Sister Nuannuan, Sister Nuannuan, since you have taken my second brother away, please take me with you too. Once my second brother leaves, I will be in Chonghua Palace, and Concubine Shu will look down on me even more."

Zhou Zhaonuan was a little confused. No, why were there so many things happening today? She said that she didn't want to meddle in too many other people's business, especially those related to Zhou Bihe.

Zhou Zhaonuan shook her head. "Mother has too many children, and now she's pregnant. It's already a great honor for her to let Yu'er go alone. If I let you go too, I'm afraid Mother will be upset."

After saying that, Zhou Zhaonuan turned around, pulled Zhou Zeyu and left. She was not her biological sister, and she had so many bad intentions. She didn't want to be with that kind of person.

Zhou Zeyu was being pulled by someone, still walking slowly. Zhou Zhaonuan noticed that the person was worried, and her eyes darkened. She opened her mouth, but nothing came out. Then she heard Zhou Zeyu's pitiful cry.

"Sister, why don't we take Sister He with us? Look at her, she's quite pitiful being alone."

"What's more, Yu'er lived with her for a long time before. This time, I saw that she was lonely, so I specifically asked Concubine Shu's mother to take her over. Although she said she didn't want to, I know she was happy in her heart. But now, if I leave, I'm afraid she won't live well in Chonghua Palace. That would be my fault."

Zhou Zhaonuan lowered his head and glanced at Zhou Zeyu with a half-smile. Suddenly, he raised his foot and kicked him, causing him to stagger again.

After Zhou Zeyu stood firm, he covered his numb buttocks, stood at attention, and stammered.

"Sister...sister, I just wanted to pick up Sister He, why did you kick me?"

Zhou Zeyu was no longer surprised by the fact that Zhou Zhaonuan would kick him from time to time since he was a child. Sometimes, he even thought that it was his sister's "special" love for him. After all, when he was beaten, his sister pleaded for him and helped him to get his father over. Now, she has rescued him time and time again.

He once wanted to hate his sister, but found that he couldn't hate her at all. He even wanted to follow her. He used to resent his sister for not pleading with the Li family and not pleading with his mother. Now when he thought about those things, he was still angry, but when he saw his sister's voice and smile, and thought of her anxiety when she rescued him, he couldn't hate her anymore.

"Sister, you've already kicked me twice today, so please stay with me."

Zhou Zeyu ran to Zhou Zhaonuan without saying a word and cried bitterly.

"It's hard enough for me to lose my mother and concubine one after another, and you still bully me like this."

Zhou Zeyu has a chubby little face and a round body, looking like a meat bun.

Zhou Zhaonuan was sure of what was going on and couldn't help but pinch his little face with a deep tone.

"Yu'er, this deep palace is not as simple as you think. Some people will not give you their heart just because you treat them well. They will give you the same. You should be considerate. As for Zhou Bihe, I hope you will not have too much contact with her in the future."

Zhou Zhaonuan's words could not be refused. Zhou Zeyu curled his lips and did not intend to argue any further. Now that the mastermind behind his mother's fainting had not been found out, he had to think about Zhou Bihe all the time. If Concubine Shu could really get away, then Zhou Bihe would have to take the blame.

As they walked, they met Zhou Beichen on his way to Chonghua Palace. "Daddy, may you be well. Father, may you be well."

Nuannuan pulled Zhou Zeyu and ran over happily, calling out sweetly, and Zhou Zeyu followed to greet her.

Thinking about the previous incident in the cold palace, and now seeing the two of them being so close, Zhou Beichen was a little confused. He squatted slightly and pulled them up one by one.

"Yu'er, I heard that Li Shuren of the Lenggong Palace fainted."

Zhou Zeyu nodded, and Zhou Beichen frowned, questioning, "Also, you didn't really put Concubine Shu in jail, did you?"

When he said this, Zhou Beichen suddenly raised his voice, which scared Zhou Zeyu. He looked at Zhou Zhaonuan with gratitude. If it weren't for his sister today, with his father's violent temper, he would probably be punished again.

Zhou Zeyu bowed slightly, "Father, Madam... Li Shu is fine now. As for Madam Shu, I did intend to do that, but my sister arrived and scolded me harshly. I have already admitted my mistake to Madam, but Madam, you refuse to forgive me."

Zhou Zeyu knelt down. Zhou Beichen stared at him with a dark and unclear look. After a long time, he said something in a low voice.

"I'm saying, otherwise why are you two walking towards the Pepper Room together? But, Nuannuan, your mother is pregnant, it wouldn't be appropriate to let Yu'er go there."

After that, he glanced at Zhou Zeyu casually and said calmly, "Get up now. If I find out that you want to imprison my mother, who is taller than you, without any evidence next time, do you think I will forgive you?"

Zhou Zeyu felt relieved, and hurriedly said some flattering words, stood up, and walked behind Zhou Zhaonuan.

Nuannuan puffed out her cheeks, rolled her eyes vigorously, and finally, smiled slyly.

"Daddy, if mother doesn't have time, don't we still have Nuannuan? From now on, I will take care of Yu'er's food, clothing, housing, transportation, homework, etc. As for mother, let her rest well and take care of the baby with peace of mind."

Zhou Beichen was about to retort, but Nuannuan winked at him frantically, which made Zhou Beichen give up the idea.

Zhou Beichen finally handed the matter of Li Shuren fainting from poisoning over to Concubine Xian. It was originally a matter within the harem, and Zhou Beichen did not want to bring it to the front court.

After three days, they finally found out the truth. The poison on the silver ingot was put by Zhou Bihe.

When Concubine Xian led people to find the poison in Zhou Bihe's house and brought Zhou Bihe to Zhou Beichen, she cried and refused to admit that she did it no matter what.

Zhou Beichen slammed the table, waved the package in front of Zhou Bihe, and sneered.

"Evil creature, you said you didn't do this, so why was this thing only found in your bedroom?"

Being wronged like this, Zhou Bihe felt she had no way to defend herself.
