Although her body was still in pain the moment she woke up, Zhuang Li knew that something was wrong. This calamity wouldn't be so easily averted today.
Although the Young Master Zhao also fell to the ground, he was already prepared. He was a step ahead of Zhuang Li in reacting, and also got up first, when he saw Zhuang Li's astonished expression.
He had been raised and spoiled by his mother. The silver taels with Zhao Mansion were everywhere in the city. The so-called beauties in the capital had all drunk with him before. He was someone who thought that he had experienced the beauty of this world. The only regret he had was that Liu Yiyi had already married into the Yin Clan. After all, she had already become the Fujin of the Yin Residence.
Although the title of his wife was even more tempting to him, the Lord Yin Tai was still much more powerful than his old father. Furthermore, his father had restrained himself quite a bit over the years.
He could only think about it in the dark about who he couldn't afford to bully …
But if that Liu Yiyi was already an absolute beauty in the mortal world, then who was this woman in front of him? Even the Young Master Zhao who praised that he had seen much more of the world were also somewhat shocked. Although she was wearing a palace robe of low grade and looked like a mere servant, her face was extremely stunning.
He was stunned for a few seconds. Zhuang Li took this opportunity to quickly crawl back up, and before the god of pests could react, she used her sleeves to cover her face.
"Have I seen you before?"
Zhuang Li did not expect the Young Master Zhao to actually open his mouth and say such a thing... He only came to his senses after a few seconds. Most likely, this Young Master Zhao also remembered Zhao Ci's mother, Du Yue'er.
"Young master has seen it too. This humble servant is from the palace. How can I possibly have seen Young Master when I'm in the courtyard with such a high wall?" I believe Young Master has also realized that my master, Young Master Wang, is someone in the palace that you cannot afford to offend. If Young Master understands the rules, then you should avoid causing trouble for your father, Prime Minister Zhao. "Take the banknotes and leave quickly."
She calmed her mind and calmed down. He put down his sleeves and coldly looked at Young Master Zhao.
The Young Master Zhao also gradually understood after hearing what the banner said. This woman was wearing palace clothes. Then her master was indeed someone from the palace. People in the palace, and they also had the surname Wang? Didn't this world believe in kings and kings? He broke out in a cold sweat, guessing that this woman's mistress was some sort of king of the city. He was almost scared to the point of bending his waist and bowing.
But then he thought, no matter what kind of prince this woman's master was, since she was able to drive all the way to this mansion today, there must be something that she needed father for. Thus, regardless of his status, he still had the upper hand.
And the Prince? There are many sons of the constitutional emperor... Now, the prince was holding onto a bunch of them. But all of them were useless. If one were to talk about princes, it was likely that only Wang Bi, the Prince Bi, would be able to obtain some power. However, Wang Bi and his father were not from the same nation, how could they drive a carriage to the entrance of the mansion? If it were any other prince... Naturally, he didn't care too much about it.
Moreover, this woman was only a servant while he was still the young master of the Prime Minister's family. Why should he fear her? Thinking up to here, the fear from earlier was swept away, and his heart was once again occupied by the peerless beauty in front of him. He cleared his throat and teased …
"Just a moment ago, my feet slipped and I offended you. Please forgive me."
He had been in the limelight for more than ten years, and was extremely good at tricking women. Adding on his identity, he was naturally born with the aura of a Prime Minister of the Phoenix Dynasty, pretending to be a scholar.
Zhuang Li saw that this fellow was not afraid and still wanted to seduce him, and couldn't help but have a headache. He didn't want to waste more time with this fellow, but this Young Master Zhao kept on saying that he had nothing to say and just refused to leave. She even looked like she was sure that Zhuang Li was dead meat. It took a lot of time and a lot of time. No matter how powerful and sinister Zhuang Li was, he looked like a cockroach that could not be killed.
"I am only a servant, and it is inconvenient for me to chat with Young Master. It is getting late, Young Master should also return to the manor to pay respects to Prime Minister Zhao, and then we will part ways." Zhuang Li was too lazy to bother with him, she threw him down and started climbing towards the carriage.
"Don't, it was a good chat …" How could he be willing to let such a beautiful woman like Zhuang Li go? If Zhuang Li was a young miss, then he was more or less afraid. However, the rare beauty in front of him was only a servant. No matter what the Young Master Wang was up to, he had to give his father some face. At most, he could just marry this maidservant of his and buy ten for him to take to the mansion tomorrow morning.
This woman was truly peerless. If he had her by his side, then he might as well not go to the brothel. His father had long hoped that he would be able to turn the tables around. If he heard that the other party was willing to stop wasting time outside, he would naturally be extremely happy. What could he not accomplish?
He thought, his courage grew, and saw that Zhuang Li was about to leave. Then, she reached out and grabbed Zhuang Li's sleeve. The two of them dragged each other in the horse workshop. They did not realise that Prime Minister Zhao and Wang Su had already walked to the entrance of the residence.
"How dare you!"
The two of them were shocked by the sudden shout, they turned and saw Wang Su aggressively rushing towards them, raising his hand he pushed away the Young Master Zhao, who was usually at ease and comfortable, but who would have known that Wang Su had such ability, and was pushed to the ground immediately.
The Prime Minister Zhao sent the Emperor out of the palace, but he didn't expect to see his disappointing unfilial son and a young lady pulling each other by the side of the carriage just as he reached the door. He immediately realized that the young lady was someone close to the Emperor!
As an unfilial son, he naturally knew how lustful and lustful he was. Now that he was being held back by the girl to prevent her from leaving, any blind person on the street could clearly see the hidden evil in his heart. He was so angry that his blood rushed to his head and he almost fainted on the spot.
Then he saw the Emperor push the evil son to the ground and lift his foot to stomp on him. In a moment of anxiety, no matter what, he was still the emperor's father-in-law, and that vile child was the emperor's sister-in-law. Although the might of a dragon was not to be trifled with, it was still a terrible thing to do. The streets in front of the Zhao Mansion were bustling with noise and excitement.
Even if the commoners in the capital did not know that the person was the Emperor, they would still be afraid that if someone who was interested in the matter were to see it, when it spread to the ears of the minister, the position in the that he occupied would probably become unstable due to the Emperor's reputation as his father-in-law. Thinking about that, he immediately rushed forward, and risked his head to use the might of the dragon to stop Wang Su.
"Wang, Young Master Wang, don't be angry, you can't lose your body. Leave this unfilial son to me. "Don't let your feet get dirty …" After saying so, he looked at his unfilial son's disbelieving expression, closed his eyes, steeled his heart, and stomped down.
Young Master Zhao naturally did not expect his father to actually be angry, and actually be angry to such an extent. Just as he was about to ask why … But he did not have the chance, and before he could even finish his words, he was kicked in the face by Prime Minister Zhao. He was kicked until he cried out in pain. The Prime Minister Zhao was also ruthless and did not show any mercy. Every kick was filled with all the strength he could muster.
"Aiyo, aiyo, dad, why are you …" "The tiger poison hasn't eaten yet …" His words were halting and filled with grievance. But how could that Prime Minister Zhao be in the mood to listen to his nonsense? If he didn't kick this unfilial son of his forcefully, he would vent his anger for the Emperor. I'm afraid the unfilial son can't even keep his head.
"My leg's broken …" He tried his best to cry, but his father didn't seem to stop at all. He could only find another way to save himself. He began to shout, "Mother, mother, ah …" Your son is going to be beaten to death … "
After a long while, Prime Minister Zhao was already exhausted to the point of gasping for breath. Although that unfilial son was still screaming, he no longer dared to speak carelessly. Only then did he stop and turn around.
"Young Master Wang, it's my fault that the older students are merciful, and have relaxed their children a little. I have been working day in and day out on national affairs, but now my family affairs are a total mess. I hope Young Master Wang will forgive me and not get angry. This matter shall be handled strictly by me, the unfilial son. "
His face was full of sincerity as he used the old fox's words to push all the blame onto his own wife. Furthermore, he even tried to clear things up because his wife was kind and had the surname of Buddha … It was really annoying to move out to serve the imperial government for so many years.
"Family law?" I wonder what kind of family rules do you have in mind for your Zhao Mansion? " Wang Su naturally did not vent his anger just because the unfilial son had been given a simple beating. The Prime Minister Zhao naturally had to protect his children tightly. Furthermore, he was old, so how much strength did he have? If he were to fight himself, he wouldn't be able to tolerate that fellow crying out at all. He would most likely lose his life with a single kick …
Moved his woman. He was still alive and kicking. He really thinks that the emperor is useless. If not for the fact that he was currently in Young Master Wang and it was only a secret that he came out of the palace, he would have executed him here.
From the looks of it, the eldest young master had suffered a loss. When the Prime Minister Zhao was in the midst of beating the evil child up, he had already ran back to the manor and reported it to the First Madame.
When the First Madame heard that her precious son had been beaten, she was so shocked that a good new tea set was accidentally smashed into pieces. She hurriedly rushed to the office under the lead of the gatekeeper.
When the Prime Minister Zhao was tired and was coaxing the emperor, the First Madame had already walked to the door. Looking at his own son, whose head was bleeding profusely, he felt his heart ache so much that it felt like it was about to break. He rushed forward and hugged the eldest young master's face as he cried. The eldest young master was originally confused by his father's beating. Although he was indeed the one at fault, it wasn't just a few days since he started acting like this. His father would usually turn a blind eye to him, but why was he acting like this now?
Originally, Prime Minister Zhao had a face full of anger, but now that he had seen his own mother, he still had that doting attitude, and naturally began to cry and complain.
Mother, I did not do anything. I only exchanged a few words with the servants of the Young Master Wang and then got beaten up. Your son is probably crippled now.
His voice was filled with tears as he spoke. It was as if some enormous grievance had been buried in his heart …
When the First Madame heard how wronged her son was, naturally, her heart ached even more and she began to cry … …
"Master, you can't wrongly accuse our son."
"Enough, you unruly son spoiled by a woman. If you still want to quibble, you will be grounded as well!"
First Madame was shocked, she did not expect the old master, who was usually easy to talk to, to be so tough. She then turned her head to look at the person beside her husband.
He couldn't help but be shocked in his heart … She had entered the palace many times as a first-name madame, so she naturally knew the Emperor. But it was indeed the Emperor …
The atmosphere changed, "Master, your son realized in shock that he is wrong. He may have offended the Young Master Wang, but the crime isn't that big of a deal. Just because he is extremely filial and respectful, you have to forgive him. Young Master Wang might have some misunderstanding with my child.
The anger in Wang Su's heart had not subsided, it had left an expression that he would take care of you guys in the future, but when he turned back, if he wanted to be concerned about Zhuang Li, would he discover him?
Ever since Prime Minister Zhao came over, he had been kneeling on the ground and listening to everything that was happening. He did not dare raise his head, afraid that Prime Minister Zhao would suspect that he was related to Du Yueyao. He was still kneeling on the floor. He didn't dare to raise his head, nor did he dare to stand up.
"Get up, you're not wrong." Wang Su said.
This disappointing woman, how could she be so easily trampled by others? In the future, she would have to watch over her a little more closely. Those who thought about her in the palace already knew a lot, and all of them wanted to imprison her within the Imperial Study. Now that he saw her like this, although he was still angry, he felt his heart soften …
Zhuang Li thought about how she could get up without being noticed. She didn't notice that the Prime Minister Zhao had arrived, but another First Madame had arrived … How unlucky she was today …
That Madame Zhao was an extremely intelligent person, and understood the situation as soon as she saw Zhuang Li kneeling. It was probably his son's doing, but if she didn't help his son now, he really wouldn't be able to see the sun tomorrow. When she went to check on his son's injuries, Prime Minister Zhao was not bluffing for the Emperor to see, but she had really used all her strength to beat him up. Even though Old Zhao was old, didn't she clearly know who his son was? Her body had long since been emptied by the alcohol and beauties, and she didn't know how many bones she had broken. Just now, she was only able to exhale and no longer breathed …
However, it was naturally more important to coax the emperor. If the emperor was unhappy, then even a doctor would not be able to save his life …
She was a First Madame in terms of Zhao Mansion. If she could yield, what could she not do? After that, he went up and dragged Zhuang Li away with a sincere face.
After coaxing the girl, the girl then asked the emperor. Who wouldn't have a soft heart?
"Miss, please don't be offended. It was all a misunderstanding …"
Zhuang Li was forcefully pulled up by her, and in an instant, the First Madame saw Zhuang Li's face.
It was as if something extremely terrifying had struck her, and the hand that held Zhuang Li's hand stiffened. She opened her mouth, but didn't dare to speak. Then her eyes rolled back.
When she fell to the ground, Zhuang Li could clearly see the corner of her mouth was Zhang He, and the word she wanted to say could not be more obvious …
She said
"Ghost …"
