The dim back

The emperor looked at Concubine Xiao in front of him, feeling a little heavy: "I didn't expect that I couldn't save you in the end."

Liu Zhongqing watched the emperor talking to Concubine Xiao's corpse: "How do you know that the little concubine has done so many bad things? The emperor still hasn't dealt with this woman."

The emperor was also helpless: "If I kill Concubine Xiao so easily, do you know what the result will be?"

Liu Zhongqing shook his head: "It will only give Miaojiang a reason to attack the palace. Now we don't have any extra troops. We can only enjoy everything in front of us."

The country is in a difficult situation right now, and Liu Zhongqing understands this very well, so he asked Liu Zhongqing to allow the Pan Gang girl to marry.

Liu Zhongqing was also afraid. When the emperor mentioned this matter, the emperor knew it well: "Don't worry too much for now. That woman has already taken him into the harem. But if something like this happens again in the future, there is no way to help you."

Liu Zhongqing watched the emperor complete the task with a nonchalant manner: "Your Majesty, what about Zhang Laojiu?"

The emperor listened to Liu Zhongqing's question, spread his hands and said, "He is a rogue, I don't think he has any outstanding qualities, I don't think he can make any waves, just let him fend for himself."

Liu Zhongqing didn't think so: "Your Majesty, the royal dignity is inviolable. Did you listen to me? This Zhang Laojiu is definitely an extraordinary person."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Let the death of my beloved concubine put an end to all this. Go back and live your life well. Listen to your elder sister and marry Zhang Yulu. Yiren Villa will help you in the future and will also be used by me."

Hearing the emperor's words, Liu Zhongqing grasped a reality: "This is strange, is there any secret in Yiren Villa?"

The emperor nodded and said, "Don't talk about this matter unless it is absolutely necessary. Let it go with the flow. I am tired today, so you can go back first."

Liu Zhongqing couldn't figure it out, but since the emperor said so to him, Liu Zhongqing had no choice but to return to Yiren Villa in a lack of interest.

Because Zhang Yulu already understood what happened and knew everything through the system.

Zhang Yulu did not mention this matter to Liu Zhongqing the first time he saw him. Instead, he said to Liu Zhongqing, "It should be time for you to patrol the military camp in a few days. Your Majesty, the mission assigned to you this time is very heavy, right?"

Liu Zhongqing had no way to hide it from Zhang Yulu anymore, but he was very confused: "Why is it that every time I do something, you are always one step faster than me? Sometimes I really feel like you are a god."

Zhang Yulu felt less stuffy this time, so he said to Liu Zhongqing, "Then you can take care of your military camp affairs every day, and I will take care of my shop every day. This is my first shop."

Liu Zhongqing then remembered that Zhang Yulu was now the owner of a shop in South City, so he said to Zhang Yulu, "Zhang Laojiu, you have to be careful. Although the emperor has not punished him, he must have been unable to stay in the capital. You have to be careful that he is extremely vicious."

Hearing what Liu Zhongqing said, Zhang Yulu nodded: "I know what you are talking about. That desperado will definitely do something strange, so I will pay more attention when I open the business."

Liu Zhongqing asked Zhang Yulu curiously: "What are you thinking about? What kind of business do you want to start?"

Liu Zhongqing thought about it and decided to help Zhang Yulu: "Anyway, I have to patrol the streets this month. If the store is in danger, you must find someone to notify me as soon as possible."

Zhang Yulu then became happy: "I didn't expect you would care about me, thank you so much, but I think I should be able to handle it myself."

Zhang Yulu then said what she had to say: "I'm in the south of the city, and I want to open an embroidery shop and sell some kite screens. Do you think this is a good idea?"

Liu Zhongqing had no interest in doing business and felt that these things were boring, so he said to Zhang Yulu: "I don't like to be with my father whenever he looks at the account book. I'll leave these things to you in the future. If you are undecided, please discuss it with me."

Think about it, this sentence is redundant. Zhang Yulu, since he wants to do business on his own, he must have his own set of practices.

The two talked and chatted, and soon it was evening.

Zhang Yulu looked at the moonlight and said, "I've never heard you mention the incident between you and Qiu Feng. How did you two know each other?"

Liu Zhongqing laughed: "That was a poetry competition. In my impression, ordinary women should embroider, but Miss Qiufeng is not like that. She is actually well-read in poetry and books. I am really impressed by her."

Zhang Yulu sighed at the side: "Women should have their own independent personality, so they should read more and have their own skills."

This is Zhang Yulu's doctrine in modern times, and it is still useful in ancient times.

At this time, the system began to remind Zhang Yulu: "Master Host, this time you helped Liu Zhongqing complete the conspiracy in the palace. Although there are still three paintings that have not been found, it is much better. I decided to give you 100 success points."

Zhang Yulu asked the system: "What does success mean to me?"

The system began to tell Zhang Yulu: "The more system points you have, the more information you will know."

Zhang Yulu finally understood. No wonder the system was unable to answer him when he asked it questions. It seemed that he did not have enough points to exchange.

At this moment, Zhang Fengxue hurried in from outside: "Sister, Yu Xiaoyao came to see me again."

This made Zhang Yulu alert: "You are an unmarried girl, don't meet a man too often. Besides, who is Yu Xiaoyao? Don't you know him?"

Everyone in the martial arts world knows that Yujiabao is still a long way behind Yiren Villa in terms of reputation, and the two families have no dealings with each other.

Zhang Fengxue felt unhappy when she heard her sister say this: "Brother Yu just wanted me to go out and play for two days. What's the danger?"

At this time, the system reminded Zhang Yulu: "Yu Xiaoyao is thinking of kidnapping Zhang Fengxue in exchange for the South China Sea Pearl to save Yu Cailian."

Zhang Yulu suddenly realized: "Do you know why Yu Xiaoyao is so active? He wants to exchange the South China Sea Pearl from you, that is, his wife."

After hearing this, Zhang Fengxue immediately panicked and said, "Sister, what should I do? I really like Brother Yu more."

Liu Zhongqing looked at the scene in front of him and remembered his obsession with Qiu Feng: "Some things are like this. The more you force him, the more indestructible he becomes. So I still advise you not to embarrass your sister."

Hearing Liu Zhongqing asking for mercy, Zhang Fengxue naturally felt wronged: "Sister is just like Dad, only thinking about the interests of our villa. Isn't it just a South China Sea pearl? If I can save someone, why not do it?"

Seeing Zhang Fengxue's persistence, Zhang Yulu was indeed a little nervous: "I don't really like you, why are you doing this?"

Hearing Zhang Yulu's words, Zhang Fengxue disagreed: "If a South Sea pearl can really allow me to marry my beloved, then I will agree."

Zhang Yulu felt that her sister was simply obsessed: "You didn't hear the seriousness of the matter. They want the South China Sea pearls, not you. Do you think you can be happy if you marry them?"

Zhang Fengxue saw how serious her sister was, and looked at Liu Zhongqing with helpless eyes: "Brother Liu, can you help me beg for mercy?"

Liu Zhongqing also stood on Zhang Yulu's side: "Little sister, don't blame your brother for not helping you. What your sister said was right. Yu Xiaoyao was willing to make such a big sacrifice for the person he loved. As far as I know, the eldest young master of Yujiabao has never been married. I think the two of them must have eloped secretly."

Zhang Yulu got even angrier when she heard this: "What? You just don't listen to me. I will never let you suffer any loss."

Zhang Fengxue burst into tears: "But sister, I have already agreed to Brother Yu's request. If I send a private message to Brother Yu, he will definitely ignore me again."

Seeing Zhang Fengxue like this, Zhang Yulu could only sigh: "In fact, even if Yu Xiaoyao doesn't marry you, if this South China Sea pearl can save Yu Cailian, I will certainly agree, but this is simply impossible."

Liu Zhongqing was also confused, so he looked at Zhang Yulu and said, "It is said that South Sea pearls can be brought back to life, so why not?"

Zhang Yulu had no choice but to tell the truth: "That's just a legend. If it was really so magical, my mother wouldn't have died in vain."

When talking about this, Zhang Fengxue started to tear up: "I couldn't see my mother since I was born. Sister, can you tell me about it?"

Only then did Zhang Yulu remember that Zhang Fengxue had no idea that he and he were not born from the same mother. Because their mothers fell into the water and drowned at the same time, their father did not allow anyone to mention it in the villa, so naturally everyone thought that they were born from the same mother.

Zhang Yulu didn't want to talk about the grudges in the previous life, so she clapped her hands at Zhang Fengxue and said, "You should learn to look forward. It's hard to say that you have a better in-law family. If Zhenzhu really can't save Yu Cailian, do you think Yu Xiaoyao will let you go? After you get married, you will let him beat and scold you."

After hearing this, Zhang Fengxue had no choice but to walk to the gate of the villa with a sad face. After Yu Xiaoyao saw Zhang Fengxue from afar, he ran over happily and asked, "What are you thinking about? Why did you take so long? I'm still waiting for Nanhai Pearl to save my life. I will definitely promise to treat you well."

Zhang Fengxue was helpless: "Brother Yu, my sister told me that South Sea pearls may not be able to save lives. It's just a legend."

Even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, Yu Xiaoyao wanted to give it a try. Now hearing what Zhang Fengxue said, Yu Xiaoyao pushed Zhang Fengxue to the ground and said, "You just said you don't want to help me. Yu Cailian has already promised me that you will become a big boss after you get married. He is willing to be a small boss, so you won't save him?"
