As long as you live a good life and avoid getting involved in disputes, a smooth and peaceful life is very simple.
Speaking of the Sun family, he sighed. His elder brother, the Emperor, valued reputation and the nation more, while he, the younger brother, valued them much less.
Zhao Shuqi was not unaware of this; she simply felt that Huo Danlan was a good woman who treated her well, knew how to manage a household, and would be good to her father in the future.
“Father, Aunt is a rare and wonderful woman. Please think it over.”
In the world of emotions, one loses reason and becomes mentally impaired only when falling in love. However, a fleeting attraction can vanish if one considers external factors.
Back in modern times, when she saw her classmates changing boyfriends and girlfriends like changing clothes, Zhao Shu could only shake her head and avoid it. Later, she watched an interview program where the guest said that there can be many people who like you, and many people who want to sleep with you, but only one person you can truly love. There is not much love that a person can waste.
Later, some people said that he was serious and dedicated in every relationship... Naturally, the emphasis is on "every relationship." Since he was dedicated and serious, why did these three words appear? Some people would say that there were too many external factors interfering with the relationship.
Thinking about all this, she became even more confused. She didn't want such feelings; she would rather not have them than accept them.
Prince Yong suddenly asked, "Does A-Jun really not mind taking a concubine for her father?"
“Of course I cared before, but Father loves Ah Jun, and Ah Jun can’t be too selfish and not consider Father. Ah Jun is also very worried about you having no one to take care of you.” She spoke the truth. Originally, Father belonged to her alone. After marrying the second wife, there would definitely be half-siblings, and Father would no longer be just her father.
Thinking about it, she still feels very sad. Call her dramatic or selfish, she is just an ordinary child from a single-parent family. She longs for her father's and mother's love and doesn't want to have a half-brother.
But she can't be so selfish, can she? Everyone has their own life, and she has no right to interfere.
If they have no right to interfere, wouldn't it be better if their stepmother was Aunt Huo, whom they liked?
Prince Yong nodded after hearing this, "I will consider it. Ah Jun, go back."
When Zhao Shu returned to Qionghua Courtyard, she saw Sun Yun waiting for her in the courtyard. "Ah Jun, I have to go back to the manor."
"Back to the manor?" Zhao Shu was taken aback, then suddenly realized, "You're going back to the Sun family?"
Come to think of it, the Sun family is in chaos right now, with traitors both inside and outside. Sun Gan must be in a terrible predicament. It just so happens that Sun Yun is going back now, and with the people left behind by her maternal grandfather, she can keep the Sun family in check, and from now on, no one will be able to interfere with her.
Sun Yun nodded, "Yes, back to the Sun family." She was different now than before. In the past, she only thought about how to escape that family, but now she didn't plan to go to Taizhou, nor did she plan to abandon the prestigious reputation brought by the Sun family. However, she also wanted to take charge of the family!
"Do you need me to give you some people?" Zhao Shu didn't know how many people she had available, but she could guess that they were definitely not many.
Sun Yun grasped her hand with delight and said gratefully, "Ah Jun, thank you so much. I have no way to repay your kindness..." She choked up.
She encountered a benefactor when she went out; this benefactor was Zhao Shu, the one who helped her escape her misery.
Zhao Shu patted her hand and smiled, "You're making it sound so serious. If you don't want him, I'll take him back."
"No," Sun Yun quickly stopped her, "Can I have a team?"
Given the danger lurking in the Sun family's territory, a single team could barely ensure their safety. After making the decision, he instructed Xiao Guozi to inform Mo Qin and have him send a team to protect Sun Yun.
"If anything happens, remember to send someone to tell me, and I'll figure something out for you." Zhao Shu could imagine how hostile the Sun family was to Sun Yun now. Everyone wasn't stupid; they were probably thinking of skinning her alive when she got back.
Sun Yun nodded with a smile, "Okay."
After seeing Sun Yun off, Zhao Shu breathed a long sigh of relief. As long as everything was developing in a positive direction, she could wait; it didn't matter. She just wanted things to slowly become the way she wanted them to be.
Mo Qin sent Wu Liang to lead a team to protect Sun Yun. When he came to report to Zhao Shu, he 'casually' mentioned, "Princess, I think Zhang Liu is hiding something."
Zhao Shu stiffened and shot him a sharp look. Mo Qin hurriedly explained, "Your Highness has misunderstood. It's not that Zhang Liu is disloyal, but rather that I suspect he might make a mistake."
"What crime is he going to commit?" Zhao Shu didn't actually impose many restrictions on the soldiers. Loyalty was the foundation, strength was the basis, gambling, drinking and womanizing were forbidden, petty theft was prohibited, and they also had to learn to write.
Naturally, Mochin added a series of regulations on this basis, which Zhao Shujun ignored.
Mo Qin hesitated for a moment, finally managing to gather his thoughts, but he was too embarrassed to say it. Afraid that Zhao Shu would wait too long, he gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and blurted out in one breath, "He has been extremely attentive to the Fan family lately!"
Zhao Shu was taken aback. It was no big deal, so she said casually, "It's time for you captains to get married. You should too. If you don't get married soon, you'll be too old. If Zhang Liu has someone he likes, just tell me and I'll make the decision for him."
Mo Qin was sweating profusely with anxiety; this was no small matter. "Princess, Lady Fan, Lady Fan... don't you remember?"
Zhao Shuzhen didn't remember. Seeing his anxiety, she couldn't help but ask, "Which Fan family?"
"Wang Fanshi." Mo Qin couldn't care less about being embarrassed. Even the princess didn't remember Fanshi. If Zhang Liu really succeeded, Lord Wang would probably cause trouble for the Wang family!
Wang Fanshi? Zhao Shu thought for a while before remembering who this person was, Wang Jize's mother. "You mean Zhang Liu was very attentive to Wang Fanshi? Wang Jize's mother?"
"Yes." Mo Qin was slightly relieved; the princess had finally remembered.
"Let him come to see me." Zhao Shu understood and took it seriously. Although based on her memories from her previous life, Wang Jize's mother had indeed remarried, if this stepfather was Zhang Liu, her subordinates would be in trouble. Wang Jiyang might even come to her father.
