It wasn't that he wanted to doubt, but Yuan Zhao had changed so much recently that he couldn't figure out what had happened to his sister.
Yuan Zhao knew she couldn't hide it anymore; her elder brother was observant and would surely notice her misbehavior.
Moreover, her strength is limited on her own; she needs her elder brother's help to protect the Yuan family.
Thinking of this, she spoke:
"Brother, I had a dream a while ago."
Yuan Zhao recounted his past life experiences through a dream, omitting Rong Ruo's story.
The idea of being reborn was so absurd that she herself wouldn't have believed it if she hadn't experienced it firsthand.
Moreover, she couldn't bear to make her older brother sad.
If her older brother knew what she had really gone through, he would be heartbroken. So, she made up the lie that she was dreaming.
As expected, Yuan Gu had no doubts.
While interpreting it through dreams may seem absurd, it could also be a warning from God.
Yuan Gu himself was well aware that although the Yuan family seemed to be enjoying great success, they were actually walking on thin ice.
Therefore, he did not doubt Yuan Zhao's words.
Compared to his father, Yuan Gu had much less of a fierce aura and a stronger scholarly air about him. On the battlefield, he was known as the "Confucian General".
However, this did not mean he had a good temper. Thinking of what his sister had said, Yuan Gu's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"What a Zhou family! What a Zhou Shiyuan!"
"Don't worry, Zhao Zhao. With your older brother here, we will never let them succeed."
"kindness!"
Yuan Zhao nodded vigorously.
Saying these things made her feel much better.
These past few days, she had been bearing all of this alone, but now that she has found someone she trusts to help her share the burden, Yuan Zhao's complexion looks much better.
Yuan Gu saw this and a pang of heartache flashed in his eyes.
"Silly Zhao Zhao, why didn't you tell your older brother sooner?"
“I was in a daze for those few days. I couldn’t believe it. After testing them several times, I found out that they really were that kind of people, which is why they did those things.”
Hearing Yuan Zhao's words, Yuan Gu felt even more heartbroken.
"Zhaozhao, don't be afraid. From now on, you have your older brother. The Zhou family can be left to him."
"No need, I want to deal with the Zhou family myself."
Yuan Zhao didn't want his elder brother to worry too much. Protecting the Yuan family was already difficult enough, and dealing with the Zhou family was not something that could be done overnight.
Yuan Gu did not insist. Judging from these few incidents, their Zhao Zhao has grown up.
However, he still said:
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you. But if there's anything you can't do, have someone send a message to your elder brother."
"I understand, brother."
The brother and sister were talking, unaware that their conversation had reached Rong Ruo's ears without missing a single word.
At this moment, Rong Ruo was coming out of the palace when he heard Qingzhu whispering in his ear. His eyes flickered slightly, and his thin lips parted to reveal a somewhat cold smile:
"You had a dream?"
"Heh, interesting!"
Yuan Zhao stayed at the Yuan residence for a long time today, and only set off to return home when night fell.
Before leaving, Yuan's father wanted to send a few people to Yuan Zhao, but she politely declined.
"Father, the previous guards are enough."
The Zhou family didn't dare to do anything to her openly, after all, they had a sense of shame, so she wasn't worried about her safety.
After bidding farewell to his father and brothers, Yuan Zhao boarded the carriage.
Having stayed home for a long time today and finally spoken out about things that had been on his mind, Yuan Zhao's mood visibly improved.
However, her good mood didn't last long before it was ruined by the blue figure blocking the carriage.
If we're talking about people you don't want to see, then the ominous star is number one, and this green bamboo who always wears green clothes is number two.
Because every time he appears, it inevitably means that the jinx wants to see her.
As expected, Qingzhu bowed to her:
"Madam, the Chief Eunuch requests your presence!"
