Lu Wujiu reached out and poked Su Jiaoniang's nose.
"Naughty!"
"..." It's not being mean.
After thinking about it carefully, Su Jiaoniang realized that she really was being mischievous.
If he were a good person, he shouldn't have given the scholar the chance to be with Miss Chi; he should have made him watch helplessly as the Chi family declined.
However, for a man who already harbors ambitions of climbing the social ladder...
Without Miss Chi, there will be Miss Wang and Miss Zhang in the future.
Unlike the other girls who were deceived by this person.
It would be better to let him board the Chi family's big ship and sink with the Chi family. At least then, Miss Zhang and Miss Wang would have heard his story and learned their lesson.
In the end, the original spouse will always be hurt at least once.
The man boarded the boat, drifted aimlessly, and landed on the bottom again.
Who was in charge back then?
If the original spouse is someone who is indecisive, hesitant, and unable to stand up for herself, she'll be like a ball of cotton to be squeezed at will by anyone.
That……
Su Jiaoniang felt that she had no other choice.
If it's someone with a good idea and ability.
Once the man's mansion collapses, she will be in charge of the household, and life will be much better afterward.
Xiao Ya couldn't sleep at night.
I dreamt that I grew up and got married.
When they were holding hands, the woman next to the man had changed.
He still called her "sister".
The little girl couldn't accept it at all.
She cried in the middle of the night because she was so angry.
Lu Wujiu heard the crying and knocked on the door of Xiaoya's room. The little girl's eyes were red from crying.
Seeing Lu Wujiu cry even more sadly,
"Men are all bad, stay away from me!" Xiaoya said angrily.
Lu Wujiu sighed. He didn't want his child to mature so early; men were inherently bad!
Being a good man is so difficult, so tiring and exhausting, and there are so many things you have to endure and control.
But if you want to be a bad man, all you need to do is lack a sense of responsibility, and you'll live a very comfortable life.
In that case, who would want to be a good man!
...
Even among those standing in the imperial court, the number of men who could be considered good men could be counted on one hand.
“Don’t be sad, there are still good ones. If you feel tired and don’t want to be overwhelmed by choices, Dad will help you find some!” Lu Wujiu said.
The little girl burst out laughing.
"It's not that easy to find, Godfather, go to sleep!"
Xiao Ya emerged from her emotional turmoil and instantly transformed into a cheerful young girl.
Marriage is still a long way off for her.
There's nothing to be afraid of!
Even if she lives close by, she can still become a widow!
My mother especially liked being a widow.
If she becomes a widow, she will probably be a very beautiful young widow. I hope her future husband will not give her the opportunity to become a widow voluntarily.
Without realizing it, Xiaoya felt that she had become stronger.
I. The night passed.
Lu Wujiu stood in the imperial court once again.
Minister Chi was trembling with fear.
Seeing that Lu Wujiu was ignoring him.
He was not at ease. If the regent wanted to punish someone, he wouldn't let it go just because he forgot about it for a short time. He would always remember it eventually.
Lu Wujiu finished speaking to the young emperor in the court about the matters that needed to be addressed.
Then they headed towards the inner palace.
Inside the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace.
Sandalwood incense is burning.
The sandalwood scent is rich and intense.
The people standing inside were drowsy.
The Empress Dowager looked at the nanny beside her and asked, "He's here?"
"They're here!" the nanny replied.
The Empress Dowager roused herself, draped a cloak over her shoulders, and walked toward the main hall.
Upon seeing the Regent, he said, "Your Highness, when do you plan to marry Yu Yan? She's such a pure and innocent girl. She's entered your household. You can't just let her stay here in such an ambiguous way."
Whether you are gay or not is another matter.
A decent man wouldn't humiliate a woman like that.
"Marriage? Your Majesty is overthinking it. If you feel you have nothing to do on weekdays, you can go for a walk and look at the flowers. There are still many beautiful sights and scenery in the Imperial Garden."
After Lu Wujiu finished speaking, his gaze shifted to the Cining Palace.
I didn't see anything suspicious.
He turned and left.
That was extremely rude.
The Empress Dowager was furious again.
"Why not let the former princess return from the ancestral temple? With more people in the palace, it will be more lively."
"That's true!" The Empress Dowager was somewhat unwilling when she heard the old woman's words.
But she knew that this was the right thing to do.
The one who was supposedly sick and recuperating at the family temple was actually being kept in the family temple. Everyone who knew the details was unclear. It turned out that the princess had an affair with a guard in the palace, which was why she was being kept in the family temple.
A few days ago, that Princess Shi wanted her own younger sister to marry the Regent and become his second wife, but nobody paid any attention to her!
Princess Shi returned to the capital, but to no avail.
But I know it will upset the Regent.
That's enough.
"Is that girl Chu Yuyan really capable of giving birth to the Regent's child?"
“If even Miss Yuyan doesn’t have such abilities, who else does?” the old nanny said, and slowly left the Empress Dowager’s side.
The main hall returned to silence.
Lu Wujiu returned to the Prince's Mansion.
Zhao Han immediately appeared beside him.
"There's something strange about the Buddhist hall in Cining Palace. The nanny next to Miss Chu said that when she accidentally touched it, it made a muffled sound, like the sound of a village cellar being hollowed out."
"Buddhist shrine?"
The Empress Dowager was such a devout Buddhist.
They actually tampered with the Buddhist hall?
Lu Wujiu nodded.
Soon, Chu Yuyan's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, I have received some news that I would like to tell you."
