Chapter 477 To avenge His Highness
When Zong Zhao was 25 years old, the prince passed away.
The funeral bells of the imperial city rang, and the whole of Da Chu fell into grief. Every household of the people hung white lanterns and postponed all happy events within a month. Crying could be heard everywhere on the streets, just to mourn and bid farewell to the prince who loved the people like his own children.
The day when the prince was buried in the imperial mausoleum.
Luo Jingfeng insisted on inspecting the prince's relics and sent people to force the museum to open, which caused dissatisfaction among the court officials. Zong Zhao was so angry that he fought with him.
General Luo had been famous for many years, and his skills and strategies were extraordinary, but Zong Zhao, with his hatred, beat Luo Jingfeng and made him retreat step by step.
I am not afraid of the bully, but I am afraid of the desperate.
Zong Zhao was determined to kill people and let him pay for the prince's life.
No one dared to come up to stop the fight.
Even a crazy person like Luo Jingfeng couldn't help but wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and cursed angrily: "Madman."
Zong Zhao said with red eyes: "Luo Jingfeng, God is watching what you do. Sooner or later, you will kneel before justice and pay for all the wronged people with your life."
Luo Jingfeng sneered: "Boy, what are you talking about? If God is willing to open his eyes, how could my third sister die? Paying for the crime with her life... Ha, the prince is dead, do you still have the ability to fight me? Don't think too highly of yourself. In front of me, Luo Jingfeng, you are nothing!"
The arrogant Pingxi general left after throwing down the harsh words, and the prince's party members pulled Zong Zhao, fearing that he would rush over to seek death again.
The military power was in the hands of Luo Jingfeng, the emperor was powerless, and the prince was secretly poisoned by Luo Jingfeng for nearly ten years, and no antidote was found until he died of the poison.
They simply had no ability to compete with the Luo family.
"Young Marquis, calm down, you must calm down."
There was a sobbing voice from the crowd: "We must avenge His Highness."
Zong Zhao also clenched his fists, his eyes full of bloodshot.
He will definitely avenge His Highness.
He will!
The silent bridgehead.
Zong Zhao has been sitting here all night. The cold wind of early winter is very cold, but he is unaware of it. Looking at the calm river surface, his heart can't calm down.
Until the small vendors got up early to do business, in the busy fireworks, he heard a familiar female voice: "Two of this rabbit steamed bun, one pig steamed bun, and the kitten steamed bun is also very beautiful, three, three, boss, your craftsmanship is great, each one is lifelike, so cute!"
The maid next to her asked her worriedly: "Madam, that bitch came to the door with a big belly, how can you still be so calm? Come out to buy steamed buns early in the morning, and the eldest master doesn't like to eat these."
Xu Wan smiled He said, "I like it. It makes me feel good. Whether he likes it or not is not important."
As she said that, she walked onto the bridge, picked up a small pig bun, and shone it in the morning sun. She chuckled and said, "It's really beautiful. If only I could paint. This scenery is particularly beautiful and suitable for painting."
Zong Zhao looked at the girl in the sun, half of her face was covered by light and shadow. In the cold wind, it easily soothed people's restless hearts, and the small pig bun that was blown up was far less charming than her.
I haven't seen her for almost two years.
The girl's bun was changed to a woman's, and her clothes were not as simple as before, but more noble. The maid who followed her was also changed, not the fierce one before.
Although she was married to the Duke of Jin's mansion, she could not avoid fighting with the women in the back house, but her life should be better than in the Shangshu Mansion.
"Madam..." The maid chased after her in a disappointed manner, still persuading her, "You have to think of a way. You have been married for almost two years and still have no children. The Duke's wife has long been dissatisfied with you. Many unmarried girls in the capital are eyeing our eldest son."
"Then let him divorce. I didn't stop him from marrying a new wife."
"Madam, stop talking nonsense..."
The master and servant walked further and further away. Zong Zhao listened to her tone, which showed that she didn't care about her husband, and deduced the general situation:
The Duke of Jin could bring her wealth and honor, and he could also train her to be considerate and obedient maids, but - that man treated her badly.
Chen Yunyu failed her.
Zong Zhao was furious, and he wanted to chase after her.
Tell her: Divorce, I will marry you, he is not good to you, I am good to you.
But after taking a few steps, he stopped again.
In this era, even if a woman divorces, she will be criticized by thousands of people.
What's more, she didn't know him at all.
His appearance would only make people say that she was having an affair and seducing a man outside her. Even if he took the initiative to ask her to divorce, the world would only blame her for all the mistakes.
Zong Zhao stood on the bridge and clenched his fingers.
The voice of housekeeper Liu came from under the bridge: "Young Marquis! Young Marquis, I finally found you! Come back to the mansion with me quickly. You didn't come back all night, and the master and the old lady were worried."
Zong Zhao went back to the mansion with him.
On the way, he asked: "Housekeeper Liu, are there many women who divorce in the families of the rich and powerful in Beijing?"
"Ah?" Housekeeper Liu was puzzled and replied directly, "No, divorce is a very shameful thing in our Great Chu. Most of the men who don't agree to it are divorced. There are only a few families who divorce their wives. But the women who are divorced have a miserable end. Either they can't get married for the rest of their lives, or they go to the mountains to become nuns."
Zong Zhao's heart sank.
He didn't know what to do.
In the following days, Zong Zhao locked himself in the study, looking for a solution amid the fragrance of books. He found himself so insignificant that he could not save the prince, Xu Wan, or the millions of people in this world.
He punched the desk, knocking off a jade pendant.
It was the one the prince gave him before he died.
It was Shu Fei's jade pendant.
Zong Zhao picked up the small jade pendant and figured out how to bring down Luo Jingfeng.
Luo Shu was his weakness.
Even though she was dead.
When Zong Zhao was 26 years old, Luo Jingfeng, who was powerful in the court, fell. He was captured alive by Zong Zhao's troops who patrolled the city, and the military power over tens of thousands of soldiers was taken back by the royal family.
Luo Jingfeng, trapped in the cage, was still banging the cage frantically. He held Luo Shu's jade pendant tightly in his hand and screamed: "Zong Zhao, Zong Zhao! You dare to lie to me, you dare to lie to me! My third sister is dead, she didn't hide at all, you lied to me!"
The cage made of black iron is indestructible.
No matter how Luo Jingfeng struggled, he couldn't get out. He was a martial arts expert, and the emperor was unwilling to take the risk of letting him out and strangling him, so the order was: cut off his food and drink.
He will die within seven days.
All the evils have come to an end.
Zong Zhao finally waited for the day of the end. He went to burn incense for the prince and told him the good news: "Your Highness, Luo Jingfeng has been caught, and your great revenge will be avenged soon."
The princess cried silently beside him. His Highness the Prince had served the country and the people all his life, but he was harmed by the traitor Luo Jingfeng. He died young and did not even leave a child after his death.
