The window was lowered and the carriage drove away slowly. The young man covered his face with his hands and burst into tears.

Over the years, he has been thinking about revenge for his biological mother, but in the end he was unable to do so due to the weak circumstances.

Unexpectedly, it was his eldest sister who finally helped him realize his wish.

For the rest of his life, he was shattered into pieces, not enough to repay his eldest sister's kindness.

The news that Mrs. Chu's wife had passed away from heat stroke spread quickly in the city, and everyone was surprised.

Although in previous years when the weather was hot, some people would die from the heat, but most of them were frail and elderly people or beggars wandering outside.

The Chu family is the richest man in Yunzhou. No one can seduce their mistress!

It can be seen that people's fate is destined. Whoever the Lord of Hell wants to die will not be able to buy life even if he has a lot of money.

Speaking of which, Mrs. Zhou could be regarded as the stepmother of the princess. All the ladies in the city were speculating whether the princess would go to pay homage to Mrs. Zhou and whether she would wait until Zhou's funeral before entering the capital.

They are still taking the beauty prescriptions prescribed by the princess before. I wonder if it is because they have not asked the princess to adjust the prescriptions in time recently. It seems that the effect is not as good as before.

But the princess had just returned from Wusuer, and now she had to go to Beijing to see the Queen Mother for medical treatment. They did not dare to disturb the princess at this juncture.

Therefore, it would be great if the princess could attend Zhou's funeral. Then they could meet the princess at the Chu family and see if there was any chance that the princess could help diagnose her pulse and adjust the prescription.

Because of this idea, the ladies all made up their minds to join the Chu family, even though they didn't think highly of the merchant's family.

Unfortunately, before they could receive the invitation from the Chu family, Chu Zhao took a small notebook and visited the heads of their family one by one.

"The beauty prescription I prescribed to your female family members before is actually a kind of chronic poison. Not only the person who takes the medicine will be poisoned, but also the family members living together will be poisoned. No one can cure this poison except me.

I also know all the secrets of your family, whether they are visible to others or not. I also know which official in the capital you are close to, whom you have bribed, and whom you have smoothed over.

If you want to keep your family safe and your official career prosperous, you must listen to me. From now on, except for the daily affairs of the yamen, everything about Yunzhou is not allowed to be reported to the capital, especially the movements of the Jingnan Palace and the Jingnan Army. No words are allowed to be spoken. If I learn that any news leaks to the capital, don't blame me for being rude.

As long as you cooperate honestly, I will give you the antidote when I come back from the capital, and the benefits will be indispensable to you. But if anyone wants to work against the will, and join forces to plot against me and the prince while I am away, don't regret it when your reputation is ruined, your family is ruined, and your life is ruined.

In addition, don’t you all have good friends with officials in the capital? Please write a letter and give it to me. If I encounter any difficulties in the capital in the future, I will have a way to ask for help. I will return this favor in the future. "

After a round of coercion and inducement, all the officials in Yunzhou City were dumbfounded.

How sinister is this Princess Jingnan? She had laid a trap for all of them so long ago, and she only waited until this day to close the trap!

Fortunately, every time their female relatives came back from the palace, they would always praise the princess for her kindness, saying that she was a miracle doctor, bodhisattva-hearted, hospitable and approachable.

This does not have the heart of a Bodhisattva, it is clearly the heart of a snake or a scorpion.

No, snakes and scorpions are not as poisonous as her. One poison can poison an entire family.

What is she doing?

By controlling all these officials and preventing news from spreading to the capital, is it possible that she wants to rebel?

Or could it be that King Jingnan wanted to rebel, and she was helping King Jingnan clear the obstacles?

This couple is really more sinister than the other. If they were allowed to rebel and successfully conquer the world, why not play with officials like them every day?

How can this be good?

All the officials in Yunzhou were very angry, as if they had been fed rat excrement. They were disgusting and could not let others know that they had eaten rat excrement.

So what should I do? I just swallowed silently, pretended that nothing happened, and then secretly guessed who else had eaten rat shit like myself.

It's best if everyone eats it, so no one blames anyone, and no one picks it out. If the court wants to blame them in the future, they can't behead all of them.

After all, the law does not punish everyone, and they are all forced.

Therefore, every official agreed to Chu Zhao's request and wrote a letter of guarantee to her. They also wrote letters to their connections in Beijing, asking them to spare no effort to help the princess when she needed help.

Chu Zhao was very satisfied. He returned to the palace and handed Murong Xiao his small notebook and the letters of guarantee from the officials. He only put the letters into a box and prepared to take them to the capital.

Murong Xiao didn't expect that she would entrust him with such an important thing for safekeeping.

This is what most officials in Yunzhou City have. With these, there is no fear that they will not be honest and obedient.

"Why didn't you keep it yourself? Why did you give it to me for safekeeping?" Murong Xiao asked.

"Because I trust the prince!" Chu Zhao said, "I am not as suspicious as the prince, and I want Mr. Qi to look at me."

Murong Xiao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said sarcastically: "I didn't mean that. It's your first time traveling far away, and you won't let me follow you. I'm worried, so I asked Qi Fengshan to accompany you to help you."

Chu Zhao didn't care. Anyway, when she went to the capital this time, she wasn't going to capture the city immediately. She would naturally have a way to make all Jingnan troops obey her command in the future.

"In this case, thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty. I will set off early tomorrow morning." Chu Zhao said, "Your Majesty is waiting for my news at home. I will work with Mr. Qi to find a way to create an opportunity for Your Majesty to send troops as soon as possible."

Parting was just around the corner, and Murong Xiao, a grown man, felt inexplicably sad.

Looking back on the past few months, the two of them had been noisy and stumbling all the way, and the moments when Chu Zhao was so angry that he vomited blood have become precious.

"Chu Zhao, I used to think that your background could not hold you back as queen, but I don't think so now. I promise you that if I come to the world in the future, the position of queen will belong to you."

Chu Zhao: "..."

It can be seen that this grandson is very sincere, but what should I do if she doesn’t want to be the queen?

If you can be an emperor, who wants to be a queen?

"Let's talk about the future in the future!" Chu Zhao said with a smile, "Everything in the world is unpredictable, and not all promises can be fulfilled."

Murong Xiao thought she would be excited and happy, but she actually laughed it off.

This woman is really hard to please.

I don’t know what she likes?

After Murong Xiao was silent for a moment, he suddenly took Chu Zhao's hand and said, "Since the future is uncertain, why not let us grasp the present first and do what needs to be done before you leave."

"what's up?"

Chu Zhao subconsciously wanted to take out his hand, but he held it tighter.

"Consult the marriage!" Murong Xiao said matter-of-factly, "Only when the marriage is consummated can you truly belong to me."

"..."

Chu Zhao was speechless and hesitated for a moment before saying: "My mother's family is still having a funeral. Even though she is a stepmother, it is not appropriate to have sex at this time. Your Majesty, you should wait a little longer!"

Murong Xiao: "..."

That Zhou family died at the wrong time.

That's abominable!

Although the marriage was not consummated, Murong Xiao still shamelessly stayed in Qionghuayuan.

Early the next morning, after the rooster crowed three times, Chu Zhao got up, packed his bags, and led five thousand Jingnan troops to embark on the journey to the capital.
