Gu Hanzhang was not surprised at all that Chaoli knew about Shi Jingtian, whether it was because of memories from his previous life or because of Fang Yaohui's relationship with Fang Zhengye.
"That's right, there were still a few men in black who had not been dealt with yesterday, and we happened to meet General Shi. He ran away. He was in a hurry to enter the palace and didn't say much to me."
Chaoli's face was solemn. She thought about it carefully and found that there seemed to be no news about Shi Jingtian's return to Beijing in her previous life.
Now that he returns to Beijing late at night, it is definitely not a small matter.
If it was just because of her rebirth, it stands to reason that it should not affect big people like Shi Jingtian. Could it be that she missed some news in her previous life and didn't know that Shi Jingtian had come back?
Perhaps something big must have happened if Shi Jingtian was allowed to return to Beijing overnight. Nothing big happened at this time in his previous life.
For a moment, Chaoli fell into silence.
After a moment, she raised her head and looked at Gu Hanzhang.
"General Shi's return to the capital should have been hidden from the public. There is no news so far, so let's pretend not to know. The prince doesn't have to go to the morning court in the past two days. He has to go on the day of the palace examination, so he can have some rest.
, he was injured after all." Chaoli felt a little distressed.
Gu Hanzhang responded, "Okay, I know."
After the two of them washed up, Gu Hanzhang went to the study, while Chaoli was embroidering in the courtyard of Tingyuge, waiting for Chaozhen's arrival.
She didn't go the day Chaozhen returned home, using the excuse that there was something going on at the Hou's house, and Chaolv couldn't say anything.
Speaking of which, Chaoli really wanted to see what her good sister would look like after getting married. After all, she had no chance to see her in her previous life.
What Chaoli was holding now was Gu Hanzhang's new clothes. She had done them for him in the past few days when she had nothing to do at home, but now her mood was different.
About half an hour later, Qing Yi came over and said that Chaozhen had arrived.
Chaoli put down the needlework in his hand, sat up straight, and let Qingyi bring Chaozhen in.
Not long after, Chaozhen entered.
The moment he saw Chaozhen, Chaoli wondered if she had been secretly replaced. Otherwise, why would she look like this?
Her face was pale, her eyes were bloodshot, her lips were cracked due to long-term dryness, and her hair was slightly messy, as if a gust of wind would blow her haggard and frail body over.
It had obviously been a while since I had seen Chaozhen, so it turned out that she had become like this so quickly.
Chaozhen looked indeed miserable, but there was still some hatred for Chaoli in her eyes, which could hardly be concealed.
"Second sister is here." Chaoli said proactively.
After coming in, Chaozhen's eyes were on Chaoli. She looked at the glamorous Chaoli and then looked at her own appearance, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
It will become what it is today, whether it is Chao Li or Chao Lv, they are inseparable.
Originally, she hated Chao Lu the most, but now that she saw the difference between Chao Li and her, her hatred became even deeper. It wasn't until Chao Li spoke to her that Chao Zhen came back to her senses.
"Sister." Chaozhen called softly.
Facing Chao Zhen who seemed to have withdrawn her sharp claws, Chao Li showed no mercy at all. She had not missed the hatred in Chao Zhen's eyes just now.
Having reached this point, Chaozhen still didn't feel that the fault was hers, and would only blame others blindly.
"Why did the second sister come to see me today? It hasn't been long since we got married. Why does the second sister seem to be so haggard? Is it because my brother-in-law didn't take good care of the second sister? That's why she is like this?" Chaoli asked.
Of course, Chaoli just asked casually, but he didn't really care about Chaozhen.
Chaozhen's face became even more ugly when she heard this, "Why should the eldest sister ask knowingly? What kind of temperament does Lin Wenxue have? The eldest sister should know. I was tortured by him the night I married into the Lin family. This man himself is inhumane and tortured." People have many tricks. If I am like this now, it has something to do with you, so why do you ask more questions hypocritically."
"What the second sister said is interesting. I just casually expressed concern, but you had such a big reaction. Why, could you have forgotten that it was you who handed me the greeting card yesterday, and I didn't beg you to come and see me. In my opinion , you'd better think about it, why did your brother-in-law ask you to come here? Don't leave the business behind. It won't be easy to do business when you go back, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to see you for a long time." Chaoli replied with a smile.
It's not that I'm really worried that Chaozhen will be punished, I just said it deliberately to stimulate her.
As expected, Chaozhen's face became more and more gloomy.
But thinking of Lin Wenxue's words, Chaozhen had no choice but to suppress the anger in her heart, calmed down her expression, and then spoke to Chao Zhen.
"Sister, although my husband is a branch of the Lin family, he doesn't even have an official position in Dali Temple now. It happens that Dali Temple has some contact with the Ministry of Punishment, so my husband specially asked me to come and ask my eldest sister, can the prince help me in the Ministry of Punishment? Arrange a position? The eldest sister has already asked the prince to arrange his father to the Ministry of Punishment, so Mr. Duohu has nothing to do with it, right? We are biological sisters, and the husband said that the eldest sister should be willing to help talk to the prince." Chaozhen said softly.
Chaozhen was originally unwilling to come over and say this, but she had no choice now. When Lin Wenxue was tormenting her, she deliberately said that she had a good relationship with Chaoli.
After all, Lin Wenxue was still afraid of Gu Hanzhang behind Chao Li, so he restrained himself a lot, at least he didn't torment her anymore in the past two days.
However, he also paid attention to something else, which was to let Chaozhen come to ask for Chaoli and let Gu Hanzhang arrange him to the Ministry of Punishment.
You can get an official position after joining the Ministry of Justice, which is completely different from being in Dali Temple.
Chaozhen was terrified, and the result of lying would be to come and ask for divorce, but she had no other choice, otherwise she would be tortured even more severely.
Now there are no injuries visible on her face, but there are bloody wounds under her clothes, some old and new. One can imagine how Lin Wenxue tortured her.
If she doesn't get a good result, it will only become more difficult for her to go back.
Thinking of this, the hatred in Chaozhen's heart was about to overwhelm her. She now regretted it very much. She should have fled the palace if she had known, but she should not have married Lin Wenxue.
Fortunately, when she got married, she still wanted to improve the relationship between the Lin family and establish a relationship with Lin Shoufu so that she could deal with Chaoli.
It wasn't until I got married that I realized that all this was a fantasy.
Chaoli looked at Chaozhen's expression carefully and knew what she was thinking, so he couldn't help but laugh.
"Second sister is still so naive. With the relationship between you and me, why do you think I will help you?"
Chaozhen's face changed greatly, "Chaoli, who caused me to end up in this situation? If you don't help me, don't blame me for dragging you into the water. We all came from the imperial family."
To be honest, I thought she could think of some good tricks to deal with her, so she had to agree.
