Nongmen Fu's wife and the whole family are villains

Mrs. Chu Guogong undressed Chu Guogong, waited to take off the jade crown on his head, and then squatted down to take off his shoes.

When the Duke of Chu was lying on the bed, his wife pressed his shoulders to relieve his fatigue.

"Master Guo, what you said to your daughter just now was a joke, right?" Mrs. Chu Guogong asked.

"Recently, the emperor is becoming more and more dissatisfied with my errands. If this continues, we may not be able to keep our Duke's title." Chu Guogong said.

"Since this is the case, Zhu'er will marry into the Fenyang Palace. We are married to the Fenyang King, at least he will help us make peace." Mrs. Chu Guogong said, "How can you tell your daughter to cancel the marriage?" What about the engagement?"

"She doesn't want to marry, so we can still marry her on her head?" Chu Guogong said, "Have you forgotten the thing about her running away from home last time?"

"Pearl is so well protected by us that she doesn't understand the sufferings of the world. I will talk to her tomorrow, and she will understand our painstaking efforts." Mrs. Chu Guogong said, "The emperor is becoming more and more suspicious now, not only our Chu State The government should be careful, even the princes have to hide and pinch, just be afraid of him..."

"Shen Yan, are you and I supposed to say these words?" Chu Guogong scolded angrily, "If it is spread, it will be a great crime to destroy the nine clans."

Chu Ningzhu tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, she looked up at the sky from time to time, hoping that it would be brighter so that she could get rid of the troubles that had troubled her for a long time.

At dawn, she got up from the bed.

"Miss, did you stay up all night?" Mu Jin dressed her, looked at the bruises under her eyes, and said.

"Yeah." Chu Ningzhu stared wide-eyed, looking at herself in the mirror. "I am not sleepy."

Mu Jin also knew what she was going to do. Seeing that she was so eager to cut her hair like this, she combed her hair in the simplest bun, changed into plain clothes, and made her cheeks whiter.

Chu Ningzhu came to the kitchen, made rock sugar bird's nest with her own hands, and took it to the main courtyard of Chu Guogong and his wife.

It was so early that not even the rough-and-tumble servants were up.The entire Duke of Chu was silent, only the sound of Chu Ningzhu's master and servant walking.

"Master, Madam, Miss has been waiting outside for a while." said the big girl beside Mrs. Chu Guogong.

Mrs. Chu Guogong was changing clothes for Chu Guogong. After hearing what she said, she said, "Is there something wrong with her so early?"

Chu Guogong sighed softly: "What else can I do? I must be in a hurry to get rid of the marriage. I was waiting for me here early in the morning, and wanted to implement this matter."

"No. If we divorce now, how could the King of Fenyang let our Duke's mansion go? Our situation is very difficult, and then..." Mrs. Chu Guogong said, "You go to court first, I will tell her to let her go The thought."

"She was blocking the door early in the morning, and she will not give up until she is given an explanation. You call her over." Duke Chu straightened his belt.

Chu Ningzhu walked in with the bird's nest.

"Father, mother, this is the bird's nest made by my daughter. You should try it." Chu Ningzhu said obediently.

Mrs. Chu Guogong sighed softly: "Mother should be happy that you are so filial. But you waited here on purpose, presumably not for the sake of filial piety. If you have something to say, just say it."

Chu Ningzhu endured it all night, and now she wanted to talk about business, of course she would not be shy, she directly explained what she meant.

"I want to retire today."

"Impossible." Mrs. Chu Guogong refused straight away.

"Why?" Chu Ningzhu frowned, "Yesterday my father said that if I don't want to marry, I won't marry. Mother, why do you insist on letting me marry such a man? Am I your own daughter? If I don't live happily, yes What good are you, why do you always hinder me?"

"Who allowed you to talk to your mother like this?" Chu Guogong was furious.

"I..." Chu Ningzhu was aggrieved, "I made an agreement yesterday, but I changed my mind today. That little prince Jun is just blessed by his ancestors, and he is a waste."

"Pearl, father tell you a few words of truth!"

Duke Chu motioned for her to sit down first.

The other maidservants in the room all withdrew, leaving only their family of three.

Chu Guogong no longer kept the secret, and told Chu Ningzhu about the situation of Chu Guogong's mansion.

"Father, you are loyal to the emperor, why should he be afraid of the Duke of Chu?" Chu Ningzhu didn't understand.

"You are a girl, and you don't understand government affairs. There is a saying that 'the emperor must die if he wants to die'. Does he need a reason to be afraid of the Duke of Chu? Maybe it's because of a nightmare, or maybe it's because of a whim. In short, he sees Chu State Duke’s Mansion is not pleasing to the eye, so I can only hide and give in. If I marry Fenyang Prince’s Mansion, at least King Fenyang can say a few words for me.”

"So, I can't withdraw?"

"Not yet."

Chu Ningzhu walked out of the room disappointed.

"Miss." Mu Jin supported her, "Are you okay?"

She didn't sleep all night, and now she was hit hard again. Her face was pale even without applying cream.

When Chu Ningzhu was half asleep, Mu Jin pushed her awake.

"Miss, Fenyang Prince's Mansion sent an iceman here to celebrate."

Chu Ningzhu sat up abruptly: "Excuse me?"

"Yes, just pass the gift and say it's the date of engagement." Mu Jin said, "If you accept their dowry and set the date of marriage, it won't change."

Chu Ningzhu got up from the bed, grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on, packed it up and went out very quickly.

"Miss, Madam told me that you can't go anywhere." The old mama led a group of servants to guard outside, and Chu Ningzhu was stopped by her just as she went out.

Lu Xuan's house.He lifted his trouser legs and looked at the injured area, where the hideous scars were so obvious.

"Second Master, don't worry, the scar will definitely disappear." Lu Zhiqian said beside him, "Go for a walk first, and see if the shadow affects your walking."

Lu Xuan took a few steps: "It hurts a bit, but it's normal and nothing serious."

"That's good." Lu Zhiqian said, "If there are no major problems, I will take up the post in the Ministry of Accounts in a few days!"

"Hubu? Did I hear correctly?" Lu Xuan was surprised.

"It's the household department." Lu Zhiqian said, "There just happens to be a vacancy there."

"Brother's hand is long enough! It actually reached the household department." Lu Xuan said, "It seems that this time I was a blessing in disguise."

Originally, he was just an idle job, but now that he has been transferred to the household department, he is no longer an idle job.

After Lu Zhiqian left, Lu Xuan asked Gu Yidao to accompany him on the street.Recently, he was idle and bored, so he wrote a few more volumes of stories, just in time to find a new partner.

"I heard that the King of Fenyang took the Iceman to the Duke of Chu's mansion to hire him."

Lu Xuan frowned listening to the people passing by.

It seems that she has not dealt with this matter well.

"What are you doing? Let me go!"

The woman's panicked cry interrupted Lu Xuan's thoughts.

He looked back and saw a man snatching a gold bracelet from a woman's wrist.The two pulled up in the street.

Lu Xuan glanced at Gu Yidao.

Gu Yidao understood, and immediately rushed to stop it.
