Chapter 228 Borrowing the Zhao Cavalry
Su Yuheng said coldly: "I don't have an aunt like you!"
As she spoke, she slowly knelt before the clan leader.
"Please consider my request carefully. If you don't agree today, my mother, brother, and I will kneel down here at the Zhao family's head!"
"You little bitch!" Zhao Ningshuang stumbled to her feet.
She looked at Su Yuheng kneeling in front of her and was about to reach out to strangle Su Yuheng's neck.
But Linglong kicked him away.
If the Zhao family really wrote down what happened that year and sent it to the hands of Wu Shangshu of Qi, she would have her legs broken and divorced by him.
By then, the Zhao family won't want her, and the Shangshu Mansion won't be able to accommodate her, so she'll have nowhere to go.
After faking her own death and leaving the Zhao family, she went to the Qi State and married the Minister of Wu with a clean slate.
If Minister Wu knew everything about her past, he would definitely find out that she was lying to him and would divorce her!
Zhao Ningshuang's eyes were moist. She crawled up in a panic and looked at Zhao Yurou viciously.
"Sister, do you really want to ruin the rest of my life?"
"Are you really going to be so heartless?"
Zhao Yurou remained silent.
Thirty sticks is really too light.
Su Yuheng looked at the Zhao clan leader firmly.
The clan leader looked at Zhao Ningshuang and sighed, "For so many years, you faked your own death and let everyone blame your sister. You hurt her so much, and you still haven't apologized to her."
"If she agrees to spare you, then I can not write the petition."
"If she doesn't agree, then I can only write a petition to Heng'er."
Zhao Ningshuang seemed to see hope.
She walked up to Zhao Yurou and knelt down with a plop.
Zhao Yurou took a step back and looked at her coldly.
Zhao Ningshuang choked up and said, "Yurou, you and I have been separated for so many years, aren't you happy to see me again now?"
"I was wrong. I shouldn't have faked my own death and ended up like this."
"Can you please forgive me? I was wrong. I'm sorry."
Zhao Yurou sneered, "Just saying sorry can erase all the years I've endured. Why?"
"Even though I knew you were having an affair with Minglang back then, I never told anyone to protect my elder sister. But what about my elder sister? Why did she want to hurt me like this?"
"I will never forgive you."
Zhao Yurou turned and looked at the clan leader.
She said with a firm expression, "Please ask the clan leader to write a petition and give it to Heng'er."
The patriarch nodded.
"Come here, drag Zhao Ningshuang away and punish her according to our Zhao family rules."
"No!" Zhao Ningshuang tried her best to resist.
"I'm already married. I'm not a member of the Zhao family. You have no right to punish me!"
"Drag him away!" The patriarch's face turned red with anger.
Two black-clad guards came in from outside the hall and dragged Zhao Ningshuang out.
Jiang sat on the chair and closed her eyes in pain.
"Expel this unfilial daughter from the family tree and drive her out of the Zhao family!"
"Just pretend I don't have a daughter like this."
"Master." Jiang's eyes were red as she looked at Zhao Zhenyi sitting on the chair.
"Look at her, she faked her death for so many years, and now she's finally back, but she's unwilling to become a member of the Zhao family."
Zhao Zhenyi said: "Forget it, just assume that she is really dead."
…
Zhao Ningshuang was dragged out of the front hall and beaten with thirty sticks according to the Zhao family rules.
The head of the Zhao family expelled her from the family tree and drove her out of the Zhao family according to the family rules.
Su Yuheng, Qi Lingzhou, and Zhao were arranged to stay in the Zhao family's guest room.
At night, Zhao Zhenyi, the head of the Zhao family, and his wife Jiang hosted a banquet to entertain Su Yuheng and others.
However, there was another matter when Su Yuheng came to the Zhao family this time.
In order to borrow Zhao's cavalry.
After the banquet, the clan leader handed a petition to Yuheng.
"At this point, do you really intend to do this?"
Su Yuheng took the petition and looked at it carefully.
It records in detail what happened to Zhao Ningshuang back then.
She handed the petition to Suzaku.
"Suzaku, have the Tianji Pavilion deliver this petition to Minister Wu of Qi."
Suzaku: "Yes, Princess."
After Zhuque left with the confession, Su Yuheng looked at the patriarch.
"Chief, I must do this."
"If I hadn't gone to Qin, if I hadn't rescued my mother, who would have saved her?"
"I've seen the Zhao family for so many years, but they haven't looked for my mother."
"Why are innocent people being tortured while those with ulterior motives live freely?"
When Zhao Yunqi came in, he happened to hear Su Yuheng say a few words to the patriarch.
"Uncle." Su Yuheng called Zhao Yunqi immediately when he saw someone coming in.
Zhao Yunqi sat down on the chair and looked at her quietly.
"You're right. It's our Zhao family that has wronged your mother."
"I'm afraid Heng'er has other things to do when he comes to the Zhao family this time."
Su Yuheng smiled and said, "It seems that nothing can be hidden from my uncle."
"I came here this time for something important."
"I wonder what's the matter with Heng'er?" Zhao Yun asked.
Su Yuheng said, "I came here to make a deal with the Zhao family."
"To be precise, it's a deal between the Tianji Pavilion and the Zhao family."
Zhao Yunqi narrowed his brows slightly and smiled, "I was right. The Crown Prince of Dayan is the head of the Tianji Pavilion."
"I wonder what Tianji Pavilion is using to make a deal with our Zhao family?"
As soon as Zhao Yun finished speaking, Linglong presented him with an exquisite box.
The box opened and inside was a painting.
Linglong picked up the painting and slowly unfolded it.
There are twelve women in the painting, each with their own characteristics.
It is the Goddess's Map that has been lost for many years by the Zhao family.
"The Goddess's Picture?" Zhao Yun frowned and walked to the Goddess's Picture to examine it carefully.
This is the Zhao family's secret treasure.
Rumor has it that this painting of the goddess contains a great secret of the Zhao family.
However, the secret in this painting can only be solved by the Zhao family.
Zhao Yunqi looked at Su Yuheng in disbelief.
"How could the lost map of the goddess of my Zhao family be in the Tianji Pavilion?"
Su Yuheng laughed and said, "This painting has ended up on the black market."
"Later, someone donated this painting to Tianji Pavilion."
"The Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion knew that this was the Zhao family's secret map, so he came here specially to return it."
Sitting in his seat, the Zhao clan leader stroked his beard.
"Bring this goddess's picture here for me to see."
Zhao Yunqi took the Goddess Zhentu and presented it to the patriarch.
The patriarch looked carefully at the twelve goddesses inside, his brows slightly furrowed.
"It is indeed the lost secret treasure of our Zhao family."
"I don't know what Heng'er wants this time?"
Su Yuheng smiled and said, "The situation in Yanjing is complicated right now. There's a risk of mutiny in the imperial city. I came here for the Zhao Iron Cavalry, the Tiger Cavalry."
Zhao Yunqi said, "You and Zhou'er are descendants of our Zhao family. Even if you didn't offer the Goddess Map to our Zhao family today, we would still send cavalry to help you."
"Since there has been a change in Yanjing, why would our Zhao family help you?"
Su Yuheng's face was filled with smiles.
"Uncle is indeed straightforward. Heng'er thanks you."
