"Yi'er." Mrs. Hua didn't give up, she frowned and looked at Hua Yi: "What did I tell you yesterday? Did you mention it to Xiao Chu?"
"Mother!"
"Xiao Chu." Mrs. Hua wiped away her arrogance just now and put on the face of an approachable elder.
"I know that Sister Yan has been arrogant since she was a child, so it's okay if you really don't like her."
"Look, there are many unmarried girls in my Hua family, and all of them are dignified and gentle. Grandma decides who you like, and let her and Sister Yan serve you together. Wouldn't it be perfect?"
Lin Chu narrowed his eyes and called a room full of female relatives to come in. It turned out... was it for this?
Did the old lady take a fancy to the Lin family's big tree and she couldn't wait to get entangled in it?
"Ling'er!"
Hua Yi spoke again: "It's time for the old lady to rest. Please help her go to the inner house. There is chaos in Zhuangzi today. If there is nothing important, no one should go out casually."
His voice was cold and firm, leaving no room for change. After all, he was a first-class official and the husband of the princess who protected the country for many years. He had a dignity of his own.
Now that the coercion was unleashed, all the female relatives were frightened into silence. Even Mrs. Hua was stunned for a moment and could not speak.
Lin Chu was quite surprised by Hua Yi's reaction.
She thought that Hua Yi would bear the brunt of the temptation to push women around her. Why... was she more responsive than herself?
Hua Ling didn't dare to argue and said in a low voice, she helped Old Madam Hua up and called everyone to leave.
Mrs. Hua was so shocked that she seemed to have lost her soul. She followed Hua Ling out step by step without saying another word.
"Sit down." Hua Yi lowered his eyes and asked Lin Chu to sit down.
"Mingren will not tell secrets. I asked you to come here because I hope you can understand my current situation. Apart from what you have seen, the rest of the Hua family are in Longhai, the capital of the Eastern Tang Dynasty. Mother and the others... are more troubled than I am here.
morning."
He originally didn't want to do this disgusting job, but he had no choice but to obey the emperor's order and the life of his family was threatened, so he had to obey.
"You tried every possible means to lure me here. What is your purpose?"
Lin Chu's eyebrows remained unchanged: "If you want me to remember our old friendship, you don't have to. We don't have any old friendship to remember."
Hua Yi's voice paused: "Why are you doing this? Qingyang City is the territory of the Eastern Tang Dynasty. You have already won, so it is understandable to ask for some money. Why are you still so aggressive and refusing to give in, insisting on taking Qingyang City as your own?
Are you willing to do so if you are talented?"
"Who said Xi Chu wants to take over Qingyang?" Lin Chu raised his eyebrows, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Yu Qinghuan? He doesn't have this ability yet."
"Ha." There was a light in her eyes: "It seems that Dongtang is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface. I am afraid that Mr. Hua will not be peaceful in the future."
No wonder Dong Tang wanted to bring Hua Yi's family to the front line for peace talks. It turned out... that such rumors could spread in Longhai City?
Someone wants to take this opportunity to drive out Xichu!
"You...you mean that Xichu never planned to seize Qingyang City?" Hua Yi was shocked: "But...but Chaozhong..."
"Master Hua!"
Lin Chu's eyes narrowed slightly: "You once served as an official in Western Chu. You know better than me what kind of temperament our emperor has. Is he a person who takes advantage of others? If Qingyang hadn't provoked the trouble first this time, how could Xi Chu have done it?
Accept the challenge?"
Hua Yi's breath dropped slightly, and she was speechless for a moment.
"The Eastern Tang Dynasty was defeated, but the person who pushed for peace talks was an old minister of Western Chu. Mr. Hua, you have never thought that you might never be able to return to Longhai."
