Mrs. Zhao was obviously very angry after hearing this. She knew Yue'er's ambition. Although she did not marry His Highness Prince Mo as she wished, she still married Crown Prince Rong. In the past, she might not have been so angry about this matter.
But now that they are engaged, I didn't expect that Yue'er would still be so selfish.
It was okay to be cruel to others, but this was her cousin, the one who had always cared about her since childhood. Even if she heard that her cousin and the daughter of the Marquis might be in love, she should at least wish them well in her heart.
What she didn't expect was that she would spread rumors just because she thought she was a conjecture, hoping to ruin the reputation of the Marquis's daughter.
"Mother, please calm down first. Rumors about Yun He suddenly spread in the capital. I was also shocked because I knew that Mrs. Qin and others who came back with Yun He would not do this at all. Because I was anxious, I
I went to find Princess Pluto. Princess Pluto investigated this matter. Because she was not sure who did it, she spread rumors about Yue'er. At the same time, she also discovered that the person who had been to the City God's Temple was Yue'er.
Chun'er beside you." Mr. Zhao said.
"This damn girl dares to damage the reputation of my future daughter-in-law. It's a life-and-death thing. In that case, I have to thank Princess Pluto. If it weren't for Princess Pluto, I don't know when the rumors will be put to rest." Mrs. Zhao said
.
Mr. Zhao secretly rejoiced in his heart. He did not expect that his mother would admit that Yun He was his daughter-in-law. However, he should really thank Princess Pluto for this matter. Otherwise, he really didn't know what to do.
"This matter has passed, and Princess Pluto has no intention of pursuing it. I will go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet with my cousin early tomorrow morning." Mr. Zhao said.
"Son, I just remembered that I heard that the daughter of the Hou family has been made the princess. This will probably make it harder for the Marquis to agree to your marriage," Mrs. Zhao said.
"Don't worry, mother, Yun He is different from my cousin." Mr. Zhao said.
"Tell me, how did you two meet?" Mrs. Zhao asked curiously.
"Yun He's life experience is very pitiful. I can't tell you the details, but Mrs. Qin loves her very much and treats her very well. I met her when I was investigating the second master in Licheng, and I didn't know her life experience until later.
In fact, she doesn’t know who her biological parents are, and it was only after Princess Pluto’s investigation that she found out her identity,” Mr. Zhao said.
"It turns out that he is also a poor man. This must be related to what happened in the Houye Mansion back then. We just heard that the child just born in the Houye Mansion died in infancy. It turns out that this child is still alive. Don't worry, when you get married, I will
I will love her well." Mrs. Zhao said..z.br
Mrs. Zhao did not ask further. Since Bin'er refused to talk, it meant that the matter was related to what happened in the Hou Mansion. The girl's life experience was already very pitiful, so there was no need for her to ask further.
"Mother, is everything you said true?" Mr. Zhao asked.
"Of course it's true. After your marriage is finalized, I will arrange for Luo Xu'er's marriage. Although he is not in a hurry to get married, we have to start making an engagement for him. He is the second young master of the Zhao family, so he should be married soon.
Only then can we make a marriage arrangement." Mrs. Zhao said.
"Mother, my son really doesn't know what to say." Mr. Zhao said.
Mr. Zhao was very moved by Mrs. Zhao's change. He thought that his mother was just talking and would not try to harm Xu'er at most. Unexpectedly, his mother really planned to treat Xu'er well.
"Okay, it was all my fault in the past. Let alone this matter, it is over. I am worried that if you go to Yue'er tomorrow, will Yue'er feel jealous and continue to deal with the daughter of the Marquis?" asked Mrs. Zhao.
road.
"If she still dares to do this, then we can't be polite to her. Princess Pluto has made it very clear that Qing'er's death was closely related to her cousin. Mother, I always thought that my cousin was a simple and kind-hearted girl, but she was actually killed
She has been lying for so many years. Not only does she like to play tricks, but she is also full of calculations. Over the years, she has spent every day calculating. I just don't understand why she wants to kill Qing'er." Mr. Zhao.
said.
"Actually, your aunt didn't treat her well. Later, she probably learned that she was not the child of your aunt, so she understood why her aunt was so cold to her. Maybe she thought that as long as Qing'er was gone, your aunt would
It will be better for her. I guess it is because
This is why she planned all of this. Sure enough, after Qing'er is gone, your aunt's thoughts are all on her." Mrs. Zhao said.
"Oh, one wrong step and one wrong step. It's wrong for her to think like this. Even if her aunt treats her badly, she will not treat her badly in the future. Why bother?" Mr. Zhao said.
"Because your aunt spoke freely, Qing'er was only five years old at that time, and she was eager to make plans for Qing'er," said Mrs. Zhao.
At that time, the Prime Minister's wife hated Yue'er. Although she kept her by her side, she was not kind to her at all. When Qing'er was five years old, the Prime Minister's wife asked her nanny to teach Qing'er the etiquette of entering the palace. Because she was too attentive to Qing'er.
, which aroused Yue'er's jealousy.
If the Prime Minister's wife hadn't been so partial, Yue'er probably wouldn't have had this idea.
After listening to his mother's words, Mr. Zhao understood that his aunt wanted to send Qing'er to the palace, but she did not expect that Qing'er would be killed. The aunt had no choice, so she decided to send Yue'er to the palace.
"Mother, although Yue'er is pitiful, that's not the reason for her to harm others." Mr. Zhao said.
"I have always been unwilling for you to get close to her, because I was worried that she would take advantage of you. However, no matter how hard I tried to persuade you, you refused to listen. It would have been okay in the past, but now I know that you are not useless, but why didn't you see it?
Is she full of calculations?" Mrs. Zhao asked doubtfully.
"A few years ago, I really liked Yue'er, so I didn't think much about it. Later I found out that she was plotting against me. I always thought it was a coincidence. Until the last incident, I completely understood her intentions.
Idea." Mr. Zhao said.
"You are such a silly boy. Don't let her lead you by the nose in the future. When you are going to get married, you can't get too close to her," said Mrs. Zhao.
"Don't worry, mother, I won't do this." Mr. Zhao said.
"Okay, you should rest early. It's getting late and I should go back." Mrs. Zhao said.
Early the next morning, after Mr. Zhao had breakfast, he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
He was really familiar with the Prime Minister's Mansion because he used to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion often. In fact, his aunt didn't like him either, she just wanted to use him. The last time she invited him to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she also wanted to use him to harm the princess. He had been there early in the morning
He thought about how to escape, but he didn't expect that the person in the house was actually the maid next to Yue'er.
Mr. Zhao was thinking about the past in the front yard. When he was lost in thought, Xia'er beside Yue'er came over.
"Master Cousin, our lady would like to ask you to come over." Xia Er lowered her head and said.
When Xia Er saw Mr. Zhao, she would still think of what happened that day. Although Mr. Zhao said it was a lie and she had been tested for it, she felt very absent when she thought of what happened that day.
"Xia'er, what happened before was my fault. I have always wanted to apologize to you in person. Today I finally met." Mr. Zhao said.
"No, no, no, young master, please don't do this." Xia Er said.
"What happened that day was all a misunderstanding. It was indeed my fault that you were wronged." Mr. Zhao said.
Xia'er didn't say anything more and took Mr. Zhao into Yue'er's yard. But as soon as he entered the yard, he smelled the smell of soup.
"Is your young lady sick?" Mr. Zhao asked.
"Yes." Xia Er said.
Xia'er stood at the door and said, "Miss, the young master cousin is here."
"Please invite cousin in quickly," Yue'er said.
Mr. Zhao entered the house without thinking much. As soon as he entered, he saw Yue'er leaning on the sofa in the outer room. Yue'er seemed to be really sick, her face was pale and she had not dressed up.
"Cousin, are you feeling unwell?" Mr. Zhao asked.
"Master Cousin, haven't you heard the rumors outside? The young lady fainted after hearing that, and her face is still so ugly now," Chun'er said.
"Chun'er, you talk too much." Yue'er said.
"It turns out it's because of rumors. My cousin has always ignored rumors. Why do you take it seriously now?" Mr. Zhao said.
"Cousin, you have changed. You don't care about me at all. There are rumors outside. If it had been before, you would have come to visit me a long time ago."
Yue'er said.
"Cousin, you are engaged now, how can you be the same as before? Moreover, mother is right, what I did before was wrong." Mr. Zhao said.
"Even if I get engaged, what does it have to do with you caring about me?" Yue'er said.
"Yue'er, please don't make trouble unreasonably." Mr. Zhao said.
"Cousin, what's wrong with you? Is it because of the daughter of the Marquis?" Yue'er asked.
After hearing this, Chun'er quickly waved her hand to Yue'er, signaling Yue'er not to say anything more.
After hearing this, Young Master Zhao sneered and said, "Yue'er, have you investigated the daughter of the Anling Marquis before?"
"So what if I have investigated, so what if I haven't?" Yue'er said.
"In February next year, you will be the crown prince. You must pay attention to your status. If you want to marry the crown prince smoothly, don't cause trouble. I believe that my cousin must have a sense of proportion and will not make things big. If you are restless, don't
Blame me for being merciless." Mr. Zhao said coldly.
Yue'er didn't expect that Mr. Zhao would talk to her like this. Now that there were no outsiders in the room, Mr. Zhao was so cold to her. Did she not guess wrong that he really fell in love with the daughter of the Hou family?
"Cousin, you have never spoken to me like this? For an outsider, you actually threatened me." Yue'er said angrily.
"Yue'er, why are you doing this? Being able to marry the prince is also your dream. Now that you have achieved your wish, your cousin is also happy for you. However, it is really unwise for you to cause trouble at this time." Mr. Zhao said
.
"Cousin, since you know Yue'er, do you know what Yue'er is thinking about now? Do you know why Yue'er is sad?" Yue'er asked.
"Yue'er, ever since you used me to get close to His Highness King Mo, I've been obsessed with you. Some things don't need to be said so clearly. You've never understood why I'm so cold to you. Do you understand now?" Mr. Zhao said.
.
"Am I doing this for myself? Ever since I was sensible, my mother has taught me that I must marry into the royal family. Even if I don't want to, I can't disobey my mother. My cousin should understand me. How can I be right for this matter?
