There are mythical animals at home to ward off evil spirits
Chapter 121 Love, Real? Fake?
Qin Nan suddenly thought of Luo Lin: "Luo Lin is trapped here just like her. He is now... Zhu Zhenghe? Then... where is the real Luo Lin?"
Bai Hao: "His soul is trapped in his body, but he also knows everything that happened. This is the second time it has happened again."
Qin Nan: "That's not possible. Song Huiru is going to kill Luo Lin?!"
Bai Hao: "Yes, but she can't kill him."
As soon as Bai Hao finished speaking, the scene around him suddenly changed.
Several other people were startled and looked around defensively.
Bai Hao: "All the old things have continued. This time, we have to wait for Zhao Wan to appear."
When Bai Hao and others left the Prime Minister's Mansion and returned to the Number One Scholar's Mansion, they saw Song Huiru who had returned to her ordinary appearance.
At this time, she had been married to Zhu Zhenghe for several months. The couple was so loving that everyone envied them.
However, love is like drinking water, you know whether it is warm or cold.
Song Huiru was a pampered eldest lady since she was a child. Even though she was well-mannered, her temper was somewhat indulgent. At first, Zhu Zhenghe still coaxed her, but later she got tired of it and just kept the peace on the surface.
In this prosperous imperial capital, Zhu Zhenghe experienced that people without identity or background are like rats crossing the street. There will be no first-come, first-served fairness. Even if he is not wrong, he has to bow his head.
He was resentful at first, resentful of the gap between wealth and poverty, until the recruitment list for martial arts examinations came out and he was shortlisted.
He was originally ostracized and was talked to by many people, and even integrated into a circle that Zhu Zhenghe had never imagined.
For the first time, he enjoyed the preferential treatment and privileges brought by fame and wealth, and he went from being a subordinate to a superior. The indescribable feeling made him lose himself.
He gradually became more familiar with the things in the vanity fair. He had already forgotten about the small and rundown village in his hometown, and his childhood sweetheart wife Zhao Wan was also abandoned.
Zhu Zhenghe is a smart and ruthless person. In order to gain power and rise to the top, he used all the connections at his disposal and gave up his dignity to learn martial arts from famous teachers. In the end, he stood out and became the number one scholar in one fell swoop.
In this way, he really has his own power, but if he wants to have a foothold in the officialdom, just being the number one scholar is not enough. He needs a larger family to back him up, and then develop his own power.
The human heart is a gap that cannot be filled. Once it tastes the sweetness of desire, it will become even more greedy.
Marrying Song Huiru was his first step. Only with the support of the Prime Minister could he really gain a foothold in the imperial capital.
But the good times didn't last long, that is, a few months after he got married, someone he had long forgotten appeared in front of him.
His wife——Zhao Wan.
He didn't know what happened to Zhao Wan. Although he still looked soft and weak, it always made him feel uncomfortable.
The two former lovers looked at each other in silence. Zhu Zhenghe knew that she had a marriage certificate in her hand. If the matter was revealed, his reputation would be ruined.
Even if Zhao Wan is finally made equal and there is no substantive punishment, what is lost invisibly is fatal. Now is a good opportunity for him to develop momentum. He will never allow this to happen!
But before Zhu Zhenghe had the intention to kill, Zhao Wan seemed to have guessed it, but she showed no fear and even negotiated a deal with Zhu Zhenghe.
She won't tell the truth, but Zhu Zhenghe wants to find a way to get her into the house. She doesn't want a wife, even if she is a concubine, she wants power and wealth!
Zhu Zhenghe was surprised, but he didn't go into detail. Killing someone was a bad idea. It was better to calm down the matter quietly. Even if someone from the same hometown found out in the future, it would be the best way to solve it without any impact!
In this way, the two reached an agreement that Zhu Zhenghe had never taken a concubine since marrying his wife. This was originally to coax Song Huiru. After all, to take advantage of the situation, he had to show his attitude. Now it is not difficult to take a concubine.
Other people's homes were full of wives and concubines, and Song Huiru became the target of public criticism among officials and their families. People always hate to see others living better than themselves.
Therefore, the name "jealous wife" began to spread. Even though Zhu Zhenghe defended her in many situations, she was still unable to resist those who were interested.
Of course, Zhu Zhenghe had already thought about this matter. Song Huiru had actually advised him to take a concubine, but he never agreed. He also coaxed Song Huiru not to let her think about it on the grounds of sincere love.
This was his preliminary plan for Song Huiru. Women were never what he wanted. No matter how beautiful they were, they should only be his vassals. He didn't want to be inferior to others, and naturally he didn't want to be overwhelmed by women forever.
When he gained power, he would trample the Song family under his feet as soon as possible. Now, all the lowly and petty gestures he made must be returned to them!
Zhu Zhenghe took the two dowry maids around her and Zhao Wan as concubines for the sake of Song Huiru.
Song Huiru originally wondered who Zhao Wan was, but Zhu Zhenghe explained that he didn't want other people with status to compete with her, so it would be easier for her to choose a poor man at random.
The power of running the family is in the hands of Song Huiru. Among the three concubines, two are her confidants and one is powerless. This is also good for her. It can block the mouths of others and not treat her badly. If there was any threat to her position as the principal wife, she would not doubt him.
Qin Nan watched Song Huiru being deceived in the corner, feeling a little sad. As a noble girl, although she had a somewhat indulgent temperament, she was pure-hearted and had no bad intentions.
The happy marriage she was looking forward to with all her heart was just a scam, and the lover she was in love with only saw her as a stepping stone.
Thinking of Song Huiru turning into a ghost, he couldn't imagine what Zhu Zhenghe had done to her.
Li You: "Zhao Wan has come out, what should we do?"
Bai Hao: "No rush, wait for a chance."
Li You: "...It's so hard, can't you just wake them up?"
Bai Hao looked at Qin Nan: "He is Anan's friend. If they wake up now, Song Huiru will die with Luo Lin at all costs."
Qin Nan was slightly startled. He never thought it was because of himself.
Qin Nan: "Then, what are we waiting for?"
Bai Hao: "Wait and see if your friend is worth saving."
Qin Nan seemed to understand, but seeing that Bai Hao knew what he was talking about, he didn't ask any more questions.
Zhao Wan seemed to be planning something. She looked weak, spoke softly, and seemed to be easy to bully. Therefore, Song Huiru did not cause any trouble for her. She lived a good life in the No. 1 scholar's house.
Zhu Zhenghe's serious problems had been resolved, so he concentrated on running the officialdom, winning over people's hearts and cultivating his confidants. In just one year, he had already begun to show his talents.
Song Huiru also became pregnant at this time.
This incident was unexpected by Zhu Zhenghe, but it didn't matter. He also needed an heir, and it would be best to give birth to his eldest son, which would also be profitable.
But unexpectedly, Zhao Wan, who was ignored by him because he was too settled, suddenly did something shocking and troublesome to him.
