After all, his sister-in-law was a widow, and he couldn't let her live a life of widowhood.
Who knew that he would be interrupted by the embroidered-robed messenger? He had originally thought that there would be plenty of time in the future and he would have another chance to come.
As a result, Princess Jin's performance in court today completely dampened his spirits. Only then did he realize that his sister-in-law had no affection for him at all; she clearly hated him to the extreme.
How could I possibly have the chance to have a deeper conversation with her?
Thinking of this, he sneered, "Aren't you worried that something might happen to the He family, sister-in-law?"
The woman from the Prince of Jin's residence immediately turned pale: "What are you going to do to them? They are innocent. If you have any complaints, come at me."
The Prince of Dai's gaze fell on her rosy cherry lips, thinking that it must feel very comfortable to be kissed by those lips: "In this world of fame and fortune, there is no such thing as innocence. Since you have chosen to do this, you should understand what kind of price you will pay."
I'd like to confront you, but the time isn't right yet.
When your He family is destroyed and everyone is wiped out, you will come begging me to come and fight you.
Upon hearing his words, Princess Jin turned deathly pale.
Before the Prince of Dai could say anything more, a voice suddenly came from the side: "How can you be so shameless as to bully a widowed and weak woman here?"
Princess Jin turned around and was immediately stunned. The tall and handsome man in front of her was none other than Zu An.
For some reason, standing next to him and feeling his imposing figure, she felt a strange sense of security.
The Prince of Dai sneered, "The reason she became a widow is because you killed her husband."
Zu An remained calm: "You must know very well who killed Prince Jin."
The Prince of Dai's expression changed: "Hmph, I'm too lazy to waste words with you."
He simply turned and left. This guy was a brute who could kill the Prince of Jin in the street. Who knew if he would be killed by him if he got into an argument with him? It was too risky.
A wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall. Someone of my noble status cannot confront this brute head-on.
After he left, Zu An looked at the timid woman beside him and asked, "Are you alright?"
"No..." Princess Jin shook her head and left dejectedly. Although she no longer hated Zu An, she didn't want to have anything to do with him, otherwise it would feel strange.
Her biggest worry now is the safety of her family. The Prince of Dai and the Meng family will definitely retaliate against them. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have come out to testify today.
She considered asking the Crown Princess for help, but she had no evidence, and the Crown Princess probably couldn't do anything about it either, otherwise she wouldn't have been forced into such a sorry state by the Prince of Dai recently.
Suddenly, the image of the Grand Commander appeared in her mind, and her pretty face gradually turned red. She wondered how she could contact him; he must have a way.
Looking at her slender and petite figure, Zu An sighed. It was good that she didn't want to get involved with him. He shouldn't disturb her peaceful life either. At most, he would just take care of her family as the Grand Commander.
He shook his head and walked out of the palace.
After leaving the palace, he was pondering where to go next: should he return to Yuquan Mountain to begin studying the "Baopu Zhenjing" (True Classic of Embracing Simplicity), or should he first visit his daughter at the Sang residence?
Just then, a sweet and clear voice rang out: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law!"
Zuan looked up and saw a carriage parked not far away. The curtain was slightly lifted, and she could vaguely see a beautiful woman sitting inside, smiling at her. Another girl was sitting in front of the carriage. She was slender and petite, with red lips and white teeth.
Upon seeing him, the girl jumped down from the carriage with delight and ran straight towards him.
Because of running, her super short leather skirt swayed rhythmically, occasionally patting her plump little buttocks. Coupled with the small leather whip hanging at her waist, she exuded youthful vitality, instantly pulling Zuan back to the time when she had just transmigrated to this world.
In a daze, a youthful and energetic body rushed into his arms: "You naughty brother-in-law!"
"Little Zhao!" Zuan was both surprised and delighted, and subconsciously hugged the girl in his arms tightly.
The person in front of me is none other than Chu Huanzhao. The two of them became friends after a fight, and later she became the person who treated him the best in the Chu family.
The passing ministers all looked over curiously, wondering who this little girl was and what her relationship was with Zu'an.
Princess Jin, who had just boarded her carriage in the distance, saw this scene and immediately lowered the curtain. She thought to herself, "This Zu An is indeed as rumored. He's a womanizer and doesn't even spare such a young girl. I must not let him get close to me."
If he really took advantage of her, her husband would probably be so angry he'd come back to life.
