Empress Chu

She said a word, and the dead girl immediately replied, she had never seen her so eloquent before, Jiang asked angrily: "Where did you do it right? Is it right to hit someone? Or is it right to sneak away from home? "

"These two things can't be said to be right." Chu Zhao replied softly without being at a loss for words, "I can only say that this is the right thing to do."

Jiang was angry and funny: "You really make sense, you are right, do you know that what you did will hurt your family? At the beginning, you were forced to resign because of your father and your uncle, and now you are forcing us to resign. Is it difficult for the capital to gain a foothold?"

Speaking of these sad things, Jiang couldn't help crying.

All the servants in the house retreated, and Chu Tang got up and sat beside his mother, wiping her tears.

Chu Zhao’s expression is calm. She has already experienced this previous life. Her aunt is like this. Whenever she talks about her father, she will say that he has hurt the family and uncle. .

Of course not now, and I can look at things from another angle when I calm down.

Chu Zhao thought for a while and said, "I remember that my uncle became an official later than my father."

Jiang was stunned for a moment, what does this dead girl mean?Does it mean that Chu Lan was able to become an official because of Chu Ling?

"Your uncle is outstanding in learning. He was invited to be a doctor. He only went after three invitations and four invitations. If he agreed at the beginning, it would be earlier than your father became an official!" She said angrily, and quickly turned the topic back to Chu Ling. "Your father refused to study and joined the army. He was fortunate to be valued by His Majesty, but he acted domineeringly and arrogantly, offending people everywhere. He was free and easy outside. When others couldn't reach him, they all accused your uncle—"

Chu Zhao asked: "Uncle resigned because others accused him?"

Jiang said angrily: "Yes, this is all your father—"

Chu Zhao interrupted her: "Others obviously forced this, so how can you blame my father?"

"If your father hadn't done those things—" Jiang said angrily.

"Your Majesty will be held accountable for what my father did?" Chu Zhao interrupted her.

Jiang was taken aback, of course not, that's why Chu Ling was even more arrogant and acted more arrogantly, those officials hated him even more, and were even more rude to Chu Lan——

"Your Majesty has not convicted my father, so my father is not guilty. Others accuse and question him. What is there to be afraid of, uncle? Not only should he not be afraid, but he should also question these people." Chu Zhao said, "My father is out fighting for the court. Things are changing rapidly, you can't stick to the rules, he is far away from the court and can't explain it, my uncle should defend his father in the court, refute his father, and rectify his name."

Jiang Shi and Chu Tang were dumbfounded, watching her forgot to speak for a while.

"This is what the saying goes, father and son are soldiers, and brothers are brothers who fight tigers." Chu Zhao raised his eyebrows and looked at Mrs. Jiang, "And what did uncle do? He was afraid that he would be implicated. I remembered that at that time, it was just When one or two people impeached father, my uncle submitted his resignation overnight, and fled to Qiaoshan Academy regardless of His Majesty's persuasion."

"You, you, talking nonsense." Jiang stammered to argue.

Chu Zhao didn't argue with her, and stood up: "If my uncle had the slightest intention to defend my father and fight back against those who accused him, today my father would not be the only one fighting outside, and the two brothers would go hand in hand One is a civil official, and the other is a heroic general. If you want to support each other, what kind of glory will my Chu family be? At least when two children are arguing, it is Liang Siqing who comes to apologize sincerely, and the one who is courteous and befriended. It won't be Ms. Liang, but Sister A Tang."

Chu Tang shook hands, imagining such a scene, yes, such a scene is really good.

Jiang Shi also inexplicably imagined that she was sitting in Yan Shi's position, looking down at others——

After all, she was an adult, and she came back to her senses.

"You are sophistry." She said angrily, but her momentum was not as good as before.

Chu Zhao was no longer aggressive, and looked sad: "It's useless to talk about the past." Then he raised his eyebrows, "However, uncle enjoys leisure and avoids trouble, but now he resents my father for hindering his future. Absolutely not, if you insist on doing this, then my father and I will also be resentful towards Uncle, who didn’t help and ignored him back then, if Uncle helped Father back then, my father wouldn’t just be a General Guard today!”

After all, he flung his sleeves and left.

Jiang Shi didn't react for a while, she came back to her senses and shouted "You—" She couldn't say anything, she was full of thoughts about what would happen then, and what would happen today.

"She hit it back." She finally said, turning to look at Chu Tang, "We owe them."

Chu Tang did not appease and approve of his mother as usual, resting his hand on his chin, he said with a faint expression, "It is said that Liang Siqing was also a Langguan back then."

At this point, Chu Lan heard that the noise here had subsided, so she held the book, pulled on the shoes, and wobbled over to deal with the aftermath, just in time to hear this sentence.

"What happened to Liang Siqing when he was a Lang Guan?" He asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, his wife and daughter looked at him with a bit of resentment in their eyes.

"I might be Yan Shi."

"I might be Miss Liang."

Chu Lan was at a loss for no reason.

Chapter No.17 Trifles

When the morning sun fell on the small courtyard, Chu Zhao and A Le walked back from the garden with their bows and arrows in their hands, the sweat on their faces glistening.

The maidservant standing in the yard hurriedly greeted, "Miss Azhao is back." "The hot water is ready." "When will Miss Azhao have dinner?" The past disdain and indifference were swept away.

People nowadays need to have eyesight. Chu Zhao from the countryside beat Miss Liang’s family. Nothing happened. The money in the family was stolen as soon as he said, and nothing happened. Put salt in the vegetables——

You can put salt in the dishes today, maybe you can put mice in your bed tomorrow!

She has the status of a lady, but doesn't abide by the rules of a lady. Such a person is really not to be messed with.

Chu Zhao didn't care about their arrogance and respect, and ordered them one by one, and the servants and maids were busy serving.

"This garden is really inconvenient for horseback riding and archery." Ale was also served together, shaking his head, "It should be demolished."

The corner of the maid who removed her hair twitched, but she didn't dare to laugh.

Is there any way, this country maid who eats bath beans as a snack is protected by Miss Azhao, so it doesn't matter if she says stupid things.

Chu Zhao didn't really protect the maidservant to tear down the garden, and said with a smile: "This garden is not for horseback riding and archery, and it's useless to tear it down. We just practice casually, as long as we don't lose our skills, and wait for the future. Back to—"

When he said this, his voice paused slightly.

Ale looked at her face and clenched his fist: "Miss, we will definitely be able to go back."

Chu Zhao nodded: "Yes, we will go back."

Although she was intercepted and returned, she never gave up her idea of ​​returning to Bianjun.

Her father sent her back to the capital to let her come to the capital to enjoy the peace and stability, but in fact the capital is the most unstable place, and there will be great turmoil in it, which will last for a long time.

I still have to write letters to my father and keep writing, but the most troublesome thing is that the letters may not be sent out.

Uncle would definitely not deliver the letter for her, and would even stop and hide it on purpose.

How to send it?Looking for Deng Yi, or the postman?

Chu Zhao was contemplating, and A Le, who had gone out, ran in from the outside again, and said angrily, "Just now, the Elder Master asked someone to tell you not to go out again."

Uncle must have been angered by what he said yesterday.

Over the years, he has become more and more aggressive, and he really thought that he was dragged down by his father, obviously because he was timid and afraid of being incompetent.

Although saying this can't make uncle sober, but at least let him know, stop pretending to be a victim to her, her father doesn't owe him anything!

She owed her father a lot. Not only did she not love him in her previous life, but she blamed him along with others.

Fortunately, this time she can make up for it.

Chu Zhao waved his hand: "I don't want to go out either, so don't worry about it."

How can the door lock her when she really wants to go out?

……

……

Chu Zhao didn't want to go out, but a visitor came to the door.

A group of girls walked in with smiles, and Chu Tang, who was sitting by the window, put down the books in his hands and stood up to greet them.

"A Tang, it's going to be out of order if we don't see you for a few days." Qi Leyun pointed at her and said, "They didn't even come out to pick us up."

Chu Tang smiled and said, "Because I guess you didn't come here for me."

The girls all laughed, and they also liked Chu Tang's frankness, because being frank is good enough to say anything.

"How is Ah Zhao?" "What happened to that incident?" "Why don't you go out these few days?" Everyone surrounded Chu Tang and asked.

Chu Tang motioned them to sit down: "I know what you want to know, don't worry, let's sit down and have some tea and snacks, I will tell you everything I know."

The girls laughed again. Chu Tang was of average background, average appearance, and average family background, but she was good at reading and reading.

Everyone sat down as before, and the maidservants brought refreshments and retreated, allowing the girls to talk and laugh freely.

"My sister Ah Zhao is fine, but she can't come to see everyone and was grounded by my father."

"That's all about the matter with Ms. Liang. The two adults have agreed not to mention it, but I am too embarrassed to go out and stay at home for a few days."

"I don't know exactly what happened to that incident. Ah Zhao insisted that Ah Qin humiliated her, and she wanted to teach Ah Qin a lesson."

This is exactly what everyone guessed.

Qi Leyun hurriedly asked: "Then is she going to teach us a lesson? We have done what Ah Qin has done."

A girl coughed lightly: "Qi Leyun, what about us, why did everyone do it? Isn't it okay for the sisters to joke around?"

"That's right." Another girl said dissatisfiedly, looking at Chu Tang, "For example, I often say that I want to play with A Tang, but A Tang didn't hit me?"

Chu Tang smiled, stretched out his hand to pinch the girl's tender cheeks, and said, "Because I also want to reward you, please come and play with me."

The girl giggled, right, since we want to play together, we should be able to play together.

Qi Leyun pouted: "That's because Ah Tang didn't dare to hit you."

As soon as the words came out, Chu Tang's smile was a little stiff, it sounded weird.

After Qi Leyun finished speaking, he looked Chu Tang up and down.

Chu Tang was annoyed at being watched, and when he wanted to say something, Qi Leyun rolled his eyes and looked at other people.

"Why don't we go see Chu Zhao." She suggested, "See if she will beat and scold us too."

Is that so?What if you really beat and scolded?The girls subconsciously flashed this idea.

"What are you afraid of!" Seeing everyone's reactions, Qi Leyun said angrily, "Even if we fight and scold, so many of us are still afraid of her?"

What happened to Ms. Liang last time was an accident. This time they are prepared and won't be as embarrassed as Liang Qin!

"This is a big matter that concerns our face." Qi Leyun became more and more excited as he spoke, "These days, Ah Qin is the one who is being laughed at outside, but all of us are disgraced. A noble girl in the capital is actually called out for just a few jokes. Girls from the countryside beat and scold them."

The girls looked at her, hesitant and thoughtful.

"We can't let her break the rules and get used to her habit of hitting people when she doesn't agree with her." Qi Leyun clasped her hands and said, "Otherwise, all of us will lose face."

Seeing her like this, she wished she could rush over to fight Chu Zhao immediately.

Chu Tang chuckled.

"Don't laugh." Qi Leyun said, snorting, "With such a sister, you are the most ashamed."

Chu Tang was never afraid of these words, she was very happy to have a sister who was very embarrassing, she could only embarrass her own face, and it also made others look good.

"Well, don't rush over so aggressively, there are so many of you, you are obviously bullying." She said with a smile, "Then it will be more reasonable for her to beat and scold you when the time comes."

It's true, Qi Leyun froze for a moment.

"How about this?" Chu Tang said slowly, "We still go to play the piano and paint in the garden like before, and I'll send someone to tell Ah Zhao."

Qi Leyun looked at her and asked, "What if she doesn't come?"

Didn't you say you were banned?

"If she doesn't come, it's a guilty conscience." Chu Tang waved his hands and smiled, "Miss Qi, you won without a fight."

The girls all laughed, and Qi Leyun pouted: "Then what if she comes?"

"If she comes, everyone will argue with her, and then she will make trouble—" Chu Tang said with a smile, "It's her who picks quarrels and troubles, so we can't blame everyone."

Chapter 18 Caveats

Ale was not at home, Chu Zhao assigned her to watch outside, and as soon as Chu Ke went out, Ale followed.

However, Ale has the support of the young lady, so he is no longer afraid of causing trouble to the young lady and hesitates, and dares to assign other maidservants.

Two of them were sent by Mrs. Jiang to pretend to be little girls. Ale rewarded them with a few money and told them to keep an eye on the door.

When the girls came in, the little girl who was squatting at the second door on the pretext of helping the housewife clean up immediately rushed to tell Chu Zhao.

"It's Ms. Qi and the others." The little girl could still recognize who came, and carefully watched where they went, and asked Chu Zhao attentively, "They are all at Ms. Atang's place. Ms. Azhao, do you want to go there?"

It was like this before, Chu Zhao stared at Chu Tang, determined to follow her and play with those girls.

Chu Zhao smiled, grabbed a handful of candied fruit and gave it to the little girl: "I won't go there, but you can watch for me, what are they playing with?"

Miss A Zhao has become very generous now, the little girl took it and ran away happily, and Miss A Zhao hit Miss Liang, the elder family went to apologize to others, Miss A Zhao ran to tell the second master After returning, not only did he not have to go to the Liang family to make amends, but he also went to the Liang family to scold him, but the Liang family did not dare to answer a single word.

The eldest master and his wife always said that the second master was guilty of causing trouble for the family, but in this comparison, the second master is still the most powerful.

A powerful father is equivalent to a strong daughter. If he can do things for the powerful Miss Azhao, of course he is willing.

After running around with the little girl, when Chu Tang's maid came over with a smile, Chu Zhao already knew her reason for coming.
