Who Cares

Chapter 12: Shame

There was a long silence during the banquet, when the Guan family put down their wine glasses together and made two soft pops to break the silence. Zhao Luli hadn't thought of how to answer the newlyweds' words, a lot of sweat broke out of his forehead, and his heart was even more embarrassed.

Guan Qiguang turned his head to look at his granddaughter, with occasional light flashing in his eyes. Although he is not good at words, he has the sun and the moon in his heart. This kind of rumors, if replaced by any poor girl, might be easy to believe, but she will never be able to fool with plain clothes? However, not only did she appear to be convinced, but she also said with gratitude at the Guining family banquet, which was clearly to embarrass Zhenbeihou deliberately. In just three days, what had happened to her? How could her calm, gentle and elegant temperament become the kind of needle hidden in the cotton, implying hostility?

Needless to say, the Hou Mansion must have treated her harshly. Thinking of this, Guan Qiguang's impression of the so-called Young Master Zhuoyu had fallen drastically, but instead of reprimanding him, he waved his hand at Father Guan.

Father loves her daughter like fate, not seeing her being wronged at all, the old man signaled that he personally poured two glasses of wine and invited Zhao Luli to drink together. The courtesy was thoughtful, but the tone was full of sarcasm, "It turns out that the Guan family entrusted Master Hou's blessing. Only today, this official often serves as a servant by your Majesty’s side, and he has never heard of it before. Now it is time to live well to thank Master Hou."

Zhao Luli waved his hand to speak, but was interrupted by him, "Although Tai Changqing is the head of the Jiuqing, but he has no real power. This official wants to go further and asks Master Hou to help. What do you think of the prime minister?" Luo pointed to the prime minister's mansion across the two streets.

It was the mid-winter season, but Zhao Luli was sweating like a waterfall. Don't look at the ambition of his father-in-law's mouth, but his expression on his face is 120,000 points of carelessness. Where did he want to be the prime minister, he was clearly running against him with words. How did this official position come from? Who knows better than the Guan family and the one in the Jinluan Temple?

Zhao Lu's eloquence is not bad, but at this moment he can't speak because of his shame. Guan Yunqi drank a full glass and continued, "Super-grade emperor master, the third grade is too common, as long as you speak, your majesty will easily agree, and the friendship between the two of you is really deep. This official does not understand your majesty’s preferences, He is always trembling and fearful in front of him. In the future, I will talk to him more about Lord Hou. It will be better to come to the monarch and his subjects. Lord Hou, if you have time, go to Weiyang Palace to walk around. Don't let this friendship fade."

If it was just a test before, the next few words are poking Zhao Luli's death hole. He saw his face pale, thin lips pressed tightly, and the shame and embarrassment between his eyebrows could not be concealed. Guan Yunqi was satisfied now, and asked the servant to take another drink and sip. As one of the founders of the country, and the former right-hand man of Emperor Sheng Yuan, why is the power of others in control, wealth and wealth, so that he can't stay behind closed doors and stay away from the government? Seeing Weizhi's work, Guan Yunqi would never believe it if there was no gap between the monarch and the minister.

After entering Taichang Temple, he gradually stood on his heels, and he inquired clearly about the mystery behind the imperial decree of marriage. It turned out that the emperor intended to admit his daughter into the palace, but Zhao Luli took advantage of his former friendship to intercept his daughter halfway. Guan Yunqi did not feel dissatisfied with him when he learned about the incident, and was even a little grateful. The palace hides dirt and grime, and it is extremely dangerous. How can he let his daughter jump into the fire pit? No amount of honor can compare to the happiness of a daughter's life. Since Zhao Luli is so sincere, he will definitely treat her kindly in the future.

However, it was a conjecture after all. When he saw his daughter whose temperament had become sharp and cold, he realized that perhaps the Hou Mansion was also a fire pit, but at this time there was no way out, and the marriage given by the emperor could not be easily reconciled.

At this moment, Zhao Luli wished that he could not turn into a green smoke and disappear directly in front of Guan's family, so he didn't have to suffer such humiliation. The person he hates most is Huo Shengzhe, and the person he fears most is also Huo Shengzhe. It was only after marriage that he eloquently heard that Guan Suyi was originally a Zhaoyi appointed by Huo Shengzhe, who was in the position of vice queen. Snatching Guan Suyi from his palm, Zhao Luli inevitably produced a little secret indulgence, but those indulgence were washed away by these terrible rumors.

If Huo Shengzhe learns that he is pulling Huang'en's mighty tiger skin to suppress Guan's family, he will definitely show his most disgusting smile. He could already imagine how he despised himself in his heart, and then ran to Ganquan Palace to force Ye Zhen to see the nature of his cowardice and incompetence.

So this matter must be clarified, and it must be eliminated from the source! After thinking about it, Zhao Luli was about to plead guilty, but was interrupted by Mr. Guan waved his hand, "No need to explain. They all say that the family, governing the country, and the world. You don’t even have the same home, so why take on the heavy responsibility of the court? Clean up after you return. Family house, don’t make a joke.” Fu looked at his granddaughter again, and said warmly, “Take down the picture hanging in my study and take it back. Take it as a warning in the future.”

Guan Suyi obediently promised, got up to get the calligraphy, and showed it to Zhao Luli when he came back, only to see five big characters written in mad cursive on it-know your shame and then be brave.

The old man Guan is indeed not good at words, so he didn't speak to his grandson-in-law, but the words and the implicit meaning behind them were a fatal blow to Zhao Luli. He thought, in the next three years, no, maybe five years, he will have no face to go to the gate of the Guan family again.

After a round of beating, Zhao Luli was finally able to take his newlyweds home. In front of Guan's family, he helped his wife into the carriage very considerately, but when he entered the carriage he hid his hands in his sleeves and rubbed it secretly. Guan Suyi sat down opposite him, took out a veil, and wiped the touched wrist over and over again, and finally put on the pungent safflower oil.

Seeing Zhao Luli's surprised expression, she smiled slightly, "Sorry, I have a sanitary disease, and it is very serious."

"Nothing." Zhao Luli felt very helpless in the face of Guan's family.

Guan Suyi didn't mind making him weaker, and said frankly, "I was deliberately pronouncing it at the family banquet before. Although my Guan family is a poor family, but he inherits from farming and studying, I have no less knowledge than your wealthy family. I grew up. Followed my grandfather throughout the twelve states of Kyushu, preached Confucianism everywhere, and was sent a little older to study history with my grandmother, and also learned agronomy from my grandfather. If you really take me to heart, you should know, "The Second Story of Zuo Shi "Was written by my grandmother, and now the widely circulated book "The Farmer" is the painstaking work of my grandfather. I am never ashamed of my birth. On the contrary, I am very proud. Because they teach The knowledge given to me and the principles of being in the world allow me to face anyone without fear.” Even in her previous life, she never felt that she was humble. The reason she endured all kinds of misunderstandings and censure was that she was grateful for the Zhao family’s confrontation. The help of the family is nothing.

The kindness of the previous life has been paid off, and there is no need to bear it in this life.

Zhao Luli had never understood his wife's family background, and was surprised when he heard these words. The three surnames of Zuo, Zhong, and Guan may be very common, but if history, agriculture, and Confucianism are involved, everyone will instantly realize the three masters referred to by these three surnames. Zuo Dingxiang, Zhong Chuanbai, and Guan Qiguang, these three are among the top three of the top ten contemporary writers. No wonder Huo Shengzhe wants to accept her as Zhaoyi, and the roots are here.

Zhao Luli suddenly realized it, and finally came back to remember. How could Guan Suyi, who was brought up by three literary magnates, be deceived by such bad rumors? She just embarrassed him on purpose!

"Yes, I deliberately embarrassed you." Guan Suyi admitted openly, took off the silver hairpin on his head, dialed the charcoal group in the small incense burner, and said casually, "I will embarrass you, always It’s better than your Majesty embarrassing you. If you fight him south and north, you should know what the most frightening army of the Jiuli is."

"Scout." Zhao Luli spit out two words with difficulty.

"So you still remember." Guan Suyi wiped the gray stains on the silver hairpin with a veil, his eyes waved and his tone was light. Hou Mansion? I don’t know the dispute between your monarchs and ministers, but I know that a military commander who has lost the trust of the emperor will definitely have no shortage of scouts in the mansion. You have given my father the position of the head of the Jiuqing and my grandfather. Master Judi, what do you think of yourself? What do you think of your Majesty? Is he a puppet that you can control at will? Maybe your Majesty will not care about you, but is it a glorious thing to end up with the impression of deceiving the world and arrogance? Even the first emperor and the queen mother can’t control your majesty’s will. Which of the great gods on your tablet is Zhenbeihou, and what is it?"

Pinging is a green hat on his head, but the emperor will not blindly indulge Zhenbeihou, because he is the overlord of the Central Plains after all. Guan Suyi shook his head secretly, saying that apart from his father, grandfather, and grandfather, there really isn't a good thing for men in the world.

"Stop talking! Don't say these things in the future! I beg you!" Zhao Luli showed shame. He knows Huo Shengzhe's suspicious and cold temperament better than anyone. But compared with his suspicion and suppression, he couldn't bear to be despised by him. He has already lost, but he doesn't want to lose too ugly.

"Don't tell me, can this be regarded as not happening?" Guan Suyi finally gave him a right eye, "Of course I can suppress the rumors. But I came from a poor family, how can the servants of the Hou Mansion really respect me? It should be on the surface, and it’s not known that it’s even more fierce behind it. For example, today’s preliminary decision, the government is not stable, how many eyes are staring at the Hou Mansion. The rumors behind them want to see the jokes of my Guan’s family, but they don’t know that they have turned the Hou Mansion into heaven. Big joke. You have to figure out how to solve this problem yourself. I know that you pretended to be drunk on the day of your wedding, and that you deliberately avoided me. You are unresolved, and I can wait. Since you are married into the Hou Mansion, I will live with you, but the premise is that you respect and trust me. Guan Suyi, who is also proud and proud, cannot tolerate slander and trampling."

Zhao Luli lost his temper even after a few words. Instead, he was attracted by his wife's firm and deep eyes. In his impression, his wife is gentle, elegant, and quiet. It can be said that she is a person with no sense of existence. However, now she has become so vivid and violent, her head is so big that Zhao Lulida, who is used to seeing lowly women Vibrated. She is willing to wait for him, and is willing to face the problems of the Hou Mansion with him, and is more willing to talk frankly and openly. This is good, really good.
