At a time when information is not very developed, the guidance of public opinion is nothing more than the guidance of superficial evidence.
"You guys, how can you call the princess by her first name?"
"Hmph! So what if you call me by your first name? Traitors will be punished by everyone!"
"That's right. From the moment she defended Zhao Huan, she was no longer worthy of the word "Princess"!"
"Zhu Lian, your family's success has lasted for generations, and you want to destroy it all with your own hands?"
"Hahaha, what are you talking about? I am a couple. If I don't help Zhao Huan, how can I help you? As the saying goes, husband and wife are of the same mind. I guess Zhu Lian's background must not be clean either!"
"What's the point of guessing? A husband sings and a wife follows, who is Zhao Huan, what kind of trick is Zhu Lian, a rat in a nest, not much better!"
With the instigation of Gao Di's servants sparing no effort, public opinion revived!
More and more people began to accuse Zhao Huan and Zhu Lian, as if the Song Dynasty's current situation was all caused by these "adulterers and adulteresses".
Gao Di's servant, who was hiding in the crowd, picked up the rotten egg in his hand and threw it directly towards Zhu Lian.
Zhao Huan had quick eyes and quick hands. He immediately pulled Zhu Lian into his arms, turned around suddenly, and used his body to block Zhu Lian's insults with ulterior motives.
"Your Highness! Let me go. If anything happens, I will share weal and woe with you!"
"What does this humiliation mean?"
Zhu Lian struggled hard, hoping to break free and share half of Zhao Huan's humiliation.
Unfortunately, Zhao Huan's hug was too tight.
No matter how hard Zhu Lian struggled, she couldn't break free. When she looked up at Zhao Huan, she found that Zhao Huan's expression was extremely...weird!
His face was obviously covered in blood, but his mouth was wide open, showing a hearty smile.
"My beloved concubine, I knew you would come!"
"If you survive this calamity, be with me..."
Before Zhao Huan could finish speaking, Zhu Lian pinched his thigh hard.
Zhao Huan had just been hit on the head by a stone, and he didn't say a word. But now he gasped in pain and grimaced.
Zhu Lian's eyes were full of frost: "Please wake up!"
"At this time, you still have the time to show off your lewd words!"
"Remember me! When I stand up, I am definitely not forgiving you for ten years of neglect, but...as a princess, your wife...has to stand up."
"Even in the underworld, I still hate you!"
Although Zhu Lian spoke harshly, his heart was already bleeding. Even at this point, Zhao Huan was not willing to let her get hurt at all...
Those not-so-broad arms blocked Zhu Lian from all insults and attacks.
The love you feel at this moment is enough to be worth ten years of empty house...
Even if today's disaster is a foregone conclusion, Zhu Lian has no regrets for being able to live and die with such a husband.
At the same time, Zhao Kun was already stunned.
Although Zhao Kun is a righteous man, in the final analysis, he is just a commoner.
Facing the trap of Gao Qiu's dog thief, Zhao Kun should have been cut into pieces, but now he has become the safest person...
The high-ranking prince blocks the outside with his flesh and blood body, while the dignified and noble princess depends on the prince for life and death, creating an insurmountable high wall.
"Your Majesty...Princess..."
Zhao Kun couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.
"How can I be so virtuous and capable?"
"This is the path I chose. Even if I die without my body intact, I have no regrets."
"My lord and princess, why do you have to bear this humiliation for me, a dying person?"
Zhu Lian had given up struggling. She looked at Zhao Kun, who was already crying, with gentle but firm eyes.
"The land you are in today is all because of the country."
"Prince Ding's Mansion will never sit idly by and ignore it!"
"I only believe in one truth in my life. Even if darkness surrounds me, there will always be sunshine. Even if it is a glimmer of light, it is worth holding on to with my life."
It was no surprise that these words came out of Zhu Lian’s mouth!
She came from a famous family, was a lady, and stayed in the palace of a poor prince for ten years without changing her original intention. This perseverance and tenacity alone are not something that ordinary people can compare to.
The smile on Zhao Huan’s face became even bigger!
What more could a husband want from this woman in his life?
Making Zhu Lian happy is the goal that Zhao Huan Bisheng strives for, and if he wants to accomplish this feat, he must clear all obstacles!
Zhao Huan took a deep breath and said earnestly: "Of the nineteen martyrs in the north, you are the only one left."
"If I can't even protect you, how can I be the enemy of this dark world?"
"There is no need to feel guilty, and there is no need to be sentimental. I just have a good bloodline, and you represent the hope of the Song Dynasty!"
"I am willing to protect you, and with this passion, I will help your little light to burn into a bright sun that shines on the earth!"
Zhao Kun wiped away the tears on his face, his eyes suddenly became firm.
Zhao Kun clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Prince and concubine, don't worry!"
"I, Zhao Kun, swear that if I cannot help the Song Dynasty, I will kill myself to apologize!"
"In this life, I wish the country no regrets! In this life, I wish you no regrets!"
Zhao Shiyan, who witnessed the entire incident, could not help but tighten his fists.
Staring at Zhao Huan, it was as if the blood all over his body was boiling.
Once upon a time, Zhao Shiyan had completely forgotten the pride of being a royal family.
now!
The pride that had been dormant for so long was finally awakened again.
Zhao Huan taught him a lesson and made Zhao Shiyan understand how as a royal family of the Song Dynasty, he should stand upright.
Zhao Shiyan suddenly turned around and looked at Gao Qiu, with a pair of sharp eyes that wanted to tear Gao Qiu into pieces.
Gao Qiu was in a good mood and kept throwing his head back and laughing.
After paying the price of his two sons, Zhao Huan was finally trampled under his feet!
As the chief judge, Gao Qiu could have directly ordered Zhao Kun to be executed, but he was not in a hurry. He just wanted to enjoy the scene of Zhao Huan falling from the altar. (The villain died because he talked too much!)
The man who won over people's hearts in Genyue and became the spiritual leader of the righteous people in the world.
Now, he has become a street rat that everyone shouts about.
What a relief?!
"Hahaha!"
"Zhao Huan, don't you want to disrupt the entire Song Dynasty? Why can't you straighten your back now?"
"You can fight me, you can fight Liuxiang, but you will never be able to fight this world!"
"The common people are like a piece of flawless rice paper. We can use ink to dye it, and the whole world will be black!"
"You want to use this little bit of clear water to wipe out all this heavy ink? How naive!"
"I am sitting in front of you now. Behind me, there are Tong Guan, Cai Jing, Wang Fu..."
"And the present His Majesty!"
"There are tens of thousands more, like wolves and tigers, an army of women at the border crossing!"
"Your death this time is just another ant that will be shattered into pieces."
Listening to Gao Qiu's arrogant sarcasm, Zhao Huan slowly raised his head, his eyes unchanged.
"Old thief Gao Qiu, have you ever heard that an earthworm can shake a tree?"
Gao Qiu, who had been paralyzed by previous hatred and current public opinion, lost his smile and his eyes were as sharp as swords: "You may not be that earthworm!"
