Chapter 54(1/2)

When the sun was about to set, Guo Yi came out of the military commander, turned over and went back to the road, and "accidentally met" Zhao Yunting halfway, and then couldn't get rid of it.

Soon he met Guo Zijing again at the corner. Guo Zijing frowned and looked at his father. Guo Yi smiled bitterly, clearly not what he wanted.

Guo Zijing knew it clearly and shouted "Marquis" lightly at Zhao Yunting, without dismounting, and followed the two of them a few steps behind.

Zhao Yunting didn't care.

When he arrived at the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion, he heard the doorman say that Zhao Chen and his wife had not returned yet. Zhao Yunting turned around and smiled at Guo Yi and said, "This is a coincidence. Our family is here to have a meal."

Guo Yi laughed: "It's indeed a coincidence..."

It's your fate!

Who doesn’t know that he is here to pick up his wife? His wife gave him a letter at noon!

However, Guo Yi really admires this brother-in-law.

The Ning family has never had a high official. The old man is a knowledgeable Hanlin. Among the three sons, the father-in-law is the father-in-law, who is the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites. However, in places like the Ministry of Rites, there is no real power or good fortune. It is the coldest yamen in the six ministries. The father-in-law has no achievements in the officialdom, but he gave birth to two good daughters. The second girl, Lianrong, is pure and elegant, and the fourth girl, Lanrong, is the real two fairy flowers in the capital. Both became daughter-in-laws whom the wives of each palace were desirable since the age of thirteen or fourteen.

He was able to marry Lianrong, so he was so terrible... Bah, it was such a pie that fell from the sky.

He was six years older than Lianrong. When Lianrong was as old as a flower, he was already an old man who could not marry a wife. As for why he couldn't marry a wife, he was at home after his father was injured on the battlefield. He was a rough man, and his father was even thicker than him. He didn't know how to manage anything except wars, and he couldn't arrange a good future for him before he retired. The old emperor was stupid and did not know how to provide pensions for the heroes who were destined to be useless. So he could only start with a small household, and was addicted to martial arts practice all day long to compete with others. He didn't respond to a marriage arrangement at home. He really didn't have the intention. Later, he got a deputy commander in Dongcheng in the Five City Military and Masjids and wanted to marry a wife. The girls who were so good looked down on him. He was so bad that he was not satisfied with him. He was so embarrassed that he thought he was rough and he thought they were spoiled and did not take the blame.

Then the pie fell off.

That day, he was idle and patrolled the streets with the people below. Somehow, a carriage in front of him was shocked and ran out of the city gate like crazy. The carriage bumped and the curtain flew up, revealing the two girls shaking inside. He didn't see the person clearly, so he urged the horse to stop the car. When he was chasing, a girl was pushed out. She looked at the posture and seemed to be a maid. Another girl seemed to jump down. Guo Yi felt it was inappropriate and shouted to wait for him. The girl looked back at him. After Guo Yi saw his appearance, he almost fell off the horse. When he was panicking, he rushed over and shouted to save the person. Guo Yi knew that person, a famous playboy in the city. Why did he come to the hero to save the beauty so by chance?

Guo Yi changed his mind and realized that such a beauty was not worthwhile to be married to a playboy!

He quickly rushed over and rushed over. He wanted to jump onto the carriage, but when the wheel rolled over the stone, he threw the beauty out. Guo Yi instinctively reached out to catch it, and the beauty came into his arms. At that time, he had no idea, and felt that the girl was thin and her body was soft, because the playboy was still chasing her. He ran for a distance before stopping off the horse, stretching out his hand to help the beauty down, and then the beauty spoke, "Who are you?"

The beauty looked pale but she was not panicked. She was not grateful for saving her. She sat down and looked at him from a high place, coldly disliked people. If she had a man, she would be the second uncle of someone.

But he just couldn't help but tell her his identity.

The beauty asked him again if he had a wife at home, and he looked at him as if she was an official and the prisoner being interrogated.

Guo Yi was confused at that time, and somehow he couldn't be angry with her, so he honestly told her.

Then the beauty handed him a pie, "I am the girl from the Ning family, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites. You touched me today, would you marry me?"

Is Guo Yi willing?

Logically speaking, when he met her for the first time, the two of them didn't understand each other's temperament, but looking at her beautiful and charming face even though she was cold, thinking of her courage and calmness in the face, he didn't think much about it, and nodded and agreed. Then, he led the horse like a soldier to the stopping carriage in the distance, and then acted as a coachman to send the person home.

On the way, she didn't say a word to him. Guo Yi felt guilty when he came to Ning Mansion and told her not to compromise. One of them was the stones in the mountains and the other was the snow lotus blooming in the snow on the top of the mountain. He couldn't get anything. He didn't want to take advantage of her. However, Lianrong asked again if he didn't want to marry him.

She seemed to be coldly speaking, as if she was not talking about the major events in life, but compared to her, she seemed like a woman.

Guo Yi also said with a cold face and wanted to scare her, but the others didn't even look at him. He told him to propose marriage early, and turned around and went in.

The two of them had never met again before the marriage. Guo Yi felt it was inappropriate after being impulsive, and always felt that the beauty was still unwilling to give up.

On the night of the wedding night, my red wedding dress could not soften the coldness on her face.

Although Guo Yi felt angry in his heart, he could not do anything to force a beauty. When he went outside, he knew that it was not good to live, so he turned out a quilt, spread it on the other side of the kang, and turned off the lights to sleep. If he couldn't sleep, he would definitely not be able to sleep. His mind was full of her beautiful and cold face. Then he heard her get up, and she walked towards him. She got into his quilt. She pulled his hand in front of her, so that the fire in his chest would spread rapidly and finally burned to her.

He and Lianrong became husband and wife like this. She never said anything he couldn't like, but the two of them lived like this and later became brother-in-law with Zhao Yunting.

He should hate Zhao Yunting. After all, it was Zhao Yunting who implicated the Ning family, which made his sister-in-law die early and his wife sad. He was so sad that he hid in his arms and cried for the first time at night, which also implicated him from the commander-in-chief of the East City to a gatekeeper. Later, the Zhao and Qin families got married and he was restored to his post. In fact, the Qin family wanted to give him a higher official position, but he didn't want it, so he crawled back. Although crawling back was the result of the Qin family no longer suppressing it, it was what he deserved, and he could raise his head in front of his wife.

But he has to obey Zhao Yunting.

Zhao Yunting found him and told him that he wanted to take revenge, and then led him to Emperor Wen of Tang, and finally succeeded. He became the commander-in-chief of the Five Cities Military and Horses.

Before today, he only obeyed Zhao Yunting's determination to forbear, and in the letter at noon, his wife reminded him not to speak out about his sister-in-law's identity in front of his daughter. Knowing that his sister-in-law was still alive, he also convinced Zhao Yunting's deep love.

The three of them went to the hall.

Seeing that Zhao Yunting was coming, Mrs. Guo's eyes fell down.

Guo Yi quickly said to his son: "Zijing, you said it was a coincidence that you invited Mr. Zhao to our house for dinner. Chengyuan and his wife were there too. When they turned around, their family happened to go back together."

One trick to frame and frame the fire.

Guo Zijing smiled slightly and did not dismantle his platform. Instead, he walked to Ning, who was standing on the side of Mrs. Guo, and gave a big gift: "Zijing has seen his aunt and heard that his aunt has taken great care of Chengyuan. Today, when he meets his aunt, Zijing is overjoyed. I wish her good health and longevity for a hundred years."

Ning looked at her nephew with relief and gave a gift with a smile.

Guo Zijing accepted the gift, looked up at her, then looked at Zhao Chen, and sighed: "Aunt looks so much like my deceased aunt." My sister is young and prone to impulsiveness, so it's better to hide it from her.

Ning's eyes became softer and softer: "Yes, Chengyuan said the same thing. When he saw me, he hugged me and called me mother. I didn't have a son, so he treated him as his biological child. It's rare that he doesn't dislike me and respected me as his mother. If the son respects him, he can call me auntie in private, and I will treat you as nephews and nieces."

"Auntie." Guo Zijing immediately shouted.

Ning nodded and pointed at Zhao Chen and said, "That's your aunt, do you still recognize it?"

Guo Zijing looked at Zhao Chen, then Zhao Yunting over there, and said expressionlessly: "Chengyuan and the Marquis looked like father and son, so of course Zijing recognized him." He did not hate the Zhao family's blood, but he couldn't like it either.

He was cold in his attitude, and Zhao Chen's expression remained unchanged, and he called out to Zijing lightly. The difference between the two was only four years old, and Guo Zijing was not as tall as him, so he clearly didn't want to get close to him, so he naturally spared the brothers' meeting.

Guo Baozhu was confused. Since her brother didn't like Zhao Chen, why did he respect Zhao Chen's adopted mother so much? Her mother has already called her sister because of Mrs. Rong's appearance. Now her brother is like this. Is he really that similar? Unfortunately, she was too young when her aunt passed away and couldn't remember her aunt's appearance.

When the children grew up, they all had their own tempers. Ning did not force the couple to have no grudges, but instead introduced Aju: "This is your brother and sister."

Aji saluted Guo Zi: "I've met my aunt."

Guo Zijing's eyes swept across Aji's face, and his tone softened: "If your younger brother and sister are bored in the Marquis' Mansion, you can come and sit down and help your aunt discipline Baozhu."

One sentence attracted unhappy eyes from Zhao Chen and Guo Baozhu at the same time.

Guo Zijing seemed to have not seen him and retreated to Guo Yi.

Aji immediately saluted Guo Yi again.

Guo Yi was a rough man. In order to please his wife, he praised without hesitation: "It's not bad, marrying Chengyuan will be aggrieved. If you suffer grievances in the Zhao family in the future, come here. Your family is far away and can't support you. You should treat me and your aunt as your family. As long as you are willing to come over at any time, you can send someone to pass on the message. My uncle immediately sends a car to pick you up."

Aji couldn't help laughing, and then thanked him and looked at Zhao Chen quietly.

Zhao Chen's face is almost green. Will he let his wife suffer?

Zhao Yunting was greener than his and looked at his wife with grievance.

Ning talked to Mrs. Guo sideways, ignoring him. Who told him to make it here?

After the dinner, the Zhao family and the other two left and returned home.

Zhao Yunting rode in front of the horse, and Zhao Chen followed the carriage to talk to his mother and wife. After returning to the house, he carried Aji to his arms, gnawed for a while before saying calmly: "Call Baozhu to accompany you in the future, you should stop going to Guo Mansion." Guo Yi became unreasonable, and Guo Zijing was another fox, and he was afraid that they would dare to detain his wife and not let her come back.

Aji pretended to be confused and lowered her head to play with the jade pendant on his waist: "Why can't you go? My uncle and aunt are very nice to me, and Baozhu also likes to talk to me. On the way back, my mother also said that in the future, if you don't stay at home if you have errands, we often go to my aunt to sit."

Of course, Zhao Chen couldn't tell the truth. He thought for a while and said, "Then choose when his uncle and son are not at home. My mother's current identity still has to avoid suspicion."

He was talking about his uncle and son. Aji was curious and looked up at him: "Why don't you call me brother?"

Zhao Chen snorted coldly: "Let's talk about it when he's taller than me."

Aji was speechless for a moment, and a man he had met just a few days ago appeared in his mind.

In fact, Guo Zijing is only a little shorter than Zhao Chen. If they hadn't been standing side by side today, they might not have seen the difference. Moreover, Guo Zijing was gentle and polite, and when he talked to her, he looked like a brother. Why couldn't he be a brother-in-law Zhao Chen said to him?

Aji wanted to persuade Zhao Chen not to make a fuss with Guo Zijing too much. Zhao Chen suddenly stared at her and asked, "What were you thinking just now?" After mentioning Guo Zijing, she was dazed. Could it be that person? Although Guo Zijing is not as good as him, she looks outstanding, with both the heroic spirit of Guo Yi and the exquisiteness of aunt.

Aji didn't know the twists and turns in his heart, and said softly: "I'm thinking of my aunt, he treats you..."

She wanted to say that Guo Zijing was quite good to Zhao Chen. After all, if Guo Zijing didn't admit that Zhao Chen was a relative, there was no need to recognize her brother and sister. However, before he finished speaking, he was suddenly thrown onto the kang and went crazy. Aji didn't understand why it was like this. He pushed him to wait until the lights were turned off, but Zhao Chen didn't listen to her, stuffed the person into the bed and started siege.

This time he came in full force, and Aji couldn't bear to eat and beg him in a low voice.

Zhao Chen slowed down and kissed her on the cheek, "You promised me to listen to me in everything, I'll be gentle."

Finally able to take a breath, Aji's mind was confused, "What did I listen to you?"

Zhao Chen paused and said, "I don't want to treat him as my brother, don't persuade me anymore."

Aji was stupid, just because of this? Even if he annoyed her about it, he wouldn't have to use this method to express his dissatisfaction?

She didn't speak, and Zhao Chen suddenly regretted mentioning Guo Zijing. It was still at this time. When he thought that his wife might think of another man at this time, Zhao Chen didn't want to speak anymore. He tried his best to seize his wife's attention and used all kinds of tactics. Even if Aji kept promised not to persuade him, he would not stop.

When the battle finally came, the mattress seemed to have been knocked over and water was unable to sleep.

When the maids came in to change to new bedding, Aji wanted to really faint.

However, Zhao Chen hugged the man and secretly recalled his wife's delicate appearance, crying and begging, making him want to do it again.

At this time, King An had already withdrawn his troops and lie on his side and talked to his wife, "I heard that your nephew is back from the Yanping Marquis' Mansion. I have also sent you a message today? When are you planning to see them?"

Princess An was already a little sleepy, but after hearing this, she felt sleepy and asked carefully: "Your Majesty wants me to see them?" No wonder she didn't go to the beautiful concubines tonight. It turned out that she had something to tell her. Thinking that she was still happy just now, Princess An felt bitter in her heart.

"Why don't you see?" King An frowned and looked at her in the dim light. "You have refused?" His voice became cold.

Princess An whispered: "Yes, the Zhao family was wronged by the Ning family..."

"Shut up! Your second uncle made a mistake in preparing for the birthday party of the empress dowager. The crime of disrespect was decided by the late emperor himself. Do you think the Ning family was wronged and dissatisfied with the late emperor?" King An whispered. The imperial edict issued by the late emperor, no matter how much the new emperor valued Zhao Yunting, he would not dare to overturn the case easily. If his wife's words were heard by those who were interested, he would definitely be scolded by the hypocritical and cruel emperor nephew, because his son had been scolded twice this year.

Princess An shook her mouth, but she felt extremely hatred in her heart.

The Zhao family harmed the Ning family, causing her parents to exile in the border and suffered, and her status in the royal palace became even lower. Even the concubines dared to ridicule her in front of her, and the outside was even more disgraceful. Why should she recognize Zhao Chen's nephew? She wished he would die, just like his mother who caused trouble!

The wife didn't say anything. King An guessed what she was thinking. When he thought of her, he hugged the person in his arms, "Okay, okay, I know you feel wronged, but don't hate the wrong person. Marquis of Yanping was forced to do that back then. The culprit was the Qin family. Just hate the Qin family alone, don't implicate the innocent, especially Zhao Chen. That's your nephew. You have only two nephews in the capital. You have already had a quarrel with the Guo family. Now Zhao Chen takes the initiative to find you, so you can see him."

Zhao Yunting is a celebrity around Emperor Wen of Tang. He is just an outdated Uncle Wang and still wants to establish a good relationship with the Zhao family. If his son causes trouble in the future, he can ask Zhao Yunting to help him talk to the emperor.

Princess An wanted to say that she didn't care about her two nephews, but her husband obviously wanted to win over the Zhao family, so she had to beg for the whole story: "Then I'll have someone to pass the message tomorrow and let them come here the next day? I'll have something to do in the past two days and I really don't have time." Instead of forcing the man to give orders, she would take the initiative to speak, and he still remembers her goodness in his heart.
