Quyang Marquis Mansion.

The clouds were low and the wind was light, and red leaves were lying on the mossy ground.

Zhao Shuzhen's illness was a mixed bag. She lost a lot of weight, her chin was pointed, and the bones in her chest were clearly visible.

Chu Yizhao pushed the door open and entered the room. Seeing her horrible appearance, he slowed down his pace. In the dim light of the cage, the woman's face was thin and loose, and the skin at the corners of her eyes drooped slightly.

In just a few months, it seemed like I had aged ten years.

"Mother"

Water drips into the lake, creating ripples.

Zhao Shuzhen's eyelids twitched, and she slowly looked at the person who spoke. After seeing who it was, she frowned impatiently.

"why you"

Chu Yizhao smiled, "Who is mother waiting for? Sister Xue'er? Or... the imperial edict?"

She uttered the last two words very lightly, but Zhao Shuzhen jumped up as if pricked by a needle.

"Where is the imperial edict?"

In previous years, the imperial decree of marriage at the Hundred Flowers Banquet would be notified to each family before dark.

Why is this year's late?

Zhao Shuzhen looked at the person under the lamp, peaceful and quiet, like an orchid growing in the dark night.

An ominous premonition emerged in my heart.

"what have you done…"

She suddenly became excited and stared at Chu Yizhao with cloudy eyes.

"Did you say something nonsense?"

"It's just a title, you want to take it too?"

"Rob?" Chu Yizhao asked, "Rob what? You Er You Fang?"

"You put the wrong person on the wrong person and ordered Quan Yanshu for Chu Yingxue. Didn't you ever think that someone would find out?"

Zhao Shuzhen suddenly relaxed, she leaned back against the bed with a smile on her face.

"You are so smart, you should have discovered it a long time ago."

"You've been holding it in your heart for so long, and now you think of asking me? Could it be that you've seen Quan Yanshu and are attracted to him?"

There were two lights on in the room, one behind Chu Yizhao and one on the lampstand beside the bed.

In the dim candlelight, Chu Yizhao saw her expression, which was contemptuous, sarcastic, and arrogant, but with a smile on her face.

Gentle jackal.

Zhao Shuzhen continued, "What a bullshit, how come you only heard this? Didn't Old Lady Xu also say that my parents were very well-educated?"

Her eyes were dim, "I raised you up, everything you have is mine, and what I give you is yours"

"If I don't give it to you, you won't get it even if you beg on your knees."

Chu Yizhao didn't say anything.

The quietness in the room made Zhao Shuzhen very happy. She felt as comfortable as if she was playing with a pet.

"Don't worry, after all, I raised you, I won't let you down."

"If the Quan family doesn't like Xue'er, you can just marry her in her place. But the Quan family likes the cousin, so if you marry her, you can only marry her as the cousin."

She looked at Chu Yizhao with a light tone, as if she was judging a commodity to be sold.

Chu Yizhao understood.

The reason why Zhao Shuzhen asked Chu Yingxue to take over was because Chu Yizhao didn't listen to her during this period...

The emperor had granted the marriage, and the whole city knew about it, but Zhao Shuzhen was actually testing the bottom line of the Quan family out of her ridiculous desire for control.

Chu Yizhao finally understood who Chu Yingxue inherited her stupid brain from.

"I don't like Quan Yanshu"

“Does it matter whether you like it or not?”

It was late at night and the room was quiet. The wind was starting to pick up and the candlelight was flickering. The window was not closed and a cool breeze blew over. The lamp on the table was suddenly blown down and the thin wick was smoking weakly.

In the dark bedside, Zhao Shuzhen's face suddenly turned pale like a ghost, and she frowned in displeasure.

A soft voice rang in her ears.

“Very important…”

"what?"

There was a noise in the room. Chu Yizhao spoke in a low voice, staring calmly at the woman on the bed and answered her question.

"Mother, the imperial edict cannot wait any longer"

"Chu Yingxue...was imprisoned in the Dali Temple by His Majesty"

"what!"

Zhao Shuzhen's voice suddenly became sharp, her pale face wrinkled into a ball, her eyes flashed with panic, but she said hard,

"How could you be imprisoned in the Dali Temple for attending a banquet? You should find a good reason for your nonsense."

Chu Yizhao thought about it, and blinked his innocent eyes.

"She won the first prize in dancing and told His Majesty that she was in love with Qi Heng and wanted to cancel her engagement with Quan Yanshu."

"She was exposed on the spot and took the title by false means"

"She betrayed her mother in public and deceived the Quan family"

"Are these reasons... enough?"

My grandmother once said that in the south, close to the sea, the calmer the sea surface is, the bigger the waves underneath, which can swallow people up if they are not careful.

A moment after Chu Yizhao finished speaking, Zhao Shuzhen stretched out her limbs, rested her head on the back of the bed, opened her mouth, and murmured,

"I do not believe…"

Chu Yunxu walked out from the darkness, wearing an outer robe, with his right arm tightly tied to his body.

He looked at his mother; that familiar, gentle face was stiff, gray, and deathly.

Somewhat unbearable.

Chu Yunxu squatted down and looked at his sister with pleading eyes. His mother was in poor health and he couldn't accept it for a while.

"Zhao'er...you...did you lie to your mother..."

Chu Yizhao stepped on his shoulder and pushed him out with force. His body lost balance and fell to the ground instantly.

His right shoulder hit the headboard hard and Chu Yunxu groaned in pain.

so funny.

Just be nice to him and then you think of making demands?

Chu Yizhao stood up, approached Zhao Shuzhen, looked into her eyes, and repeated what he had just said word by word with great seriousness.

Breaking off the engagement...deceiving the Quan family...

"Mother, you no longer have a place to stay in the capital..."

"But it doesn't matter, you don't know yet."

Zhao Shuzhen looked at the person in front of her and felt that he was extremely unfamiliar. It was clearly the same skin, but it was as if he had changed his flesh and blood.

Her gentle smile is as beautiful as a banished fairy.

Lips parted...

What did she say?

Zhao Shuzhen forgot about it, and only felt that her body fell off a cliff, smashed onto the bluestone, and broke into pieces...

The blood quickly spread before his eyes, and his mouth could not stop overflowing with fishy water.

My head hurts, my heart hurts, my limbs and internal organs all hurt.

She heard Heyue and Xu'er's cries getting farther and farther away...

Chu Yizhao stood in the room, looking at the chaos calmly. He Yue shot a vicious look at her, and Chu Yizhao smiled slightly.

With the arrogance of "What can you do to me?"

Chu Yizhao initially thought the medicine on Chu Yingxue's face was a miraculous medicine that used poison to fight poison, until he heard the word "gu poison" from Wei Xingli's mouth.

The bright and shiny blood-absorbing scars are clearly insect corpses...

Zhao Shuzhen's health was very poor and she was easily angered, so her qi and blood floated on the surface, forming living blood clots that bloodworms liked.

If I continue to hang out with Chu Yingxue, my life will be in danger.

He Yue asked her to save someone, so she had to do it for her.

It was He Yue who informed Chu Yingxue that she and Qi Heng were having an affair, it was He Yue who instigated Chu Yingxue to perform the Shocking Magpie Dance, and it was He Yue who hired the nanny in the music school.

What does it have to do with Chu Yizhao...

He Yue thought that Chu Yizhao wanted to vent his anger by putting the wrong person on the wrong person, so she surrendered and used this opportunity to marry Chu Yingxue off.

What a good dog Zhao Shuzhen has.

...

Chu Huai is back...

He told Chu Yizhao to get out and kneel down.

Kneeling for an hour.

Chu Yunxu stood in front of Chu Yizhao swayingly. Chu Yizhao frowned. Was he trying to take advantage of him?

"roll"

"Don't stand in front of me"

Chu Yunxu seemed to have not heard it, and was stunned.

"Zhao'er, the imperial physician said... Mother is paralyzed"

Chu Yizhao felt a dull pain in his knee and looked up at the sky, where a bright crescent moon was hanging.

She remembered that it seemed to be a moonlit night like this when Zhao Shuzhen rescued her from the cell with tears streaming down her face, and gently told her to escape quickly...

Escape from hell to hell...

The misty moonlight sprinkled in the courtyard, and she said,

"Fourth brother... do you miss second brother..."

After the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the cousin of the Marquis of Quyang became famous overnight, deceiving the world and stealing fame, and even irritating her elders.

It was more violent and violent than in the previous life, and even the walls of Wenyuan Mansion were covered with rotten vegetable leaves.

Chu Yingxue was in the Dali Temple and she didn't know whether she was alive or dead, so Chu Yunyu hurriedly took some money to make arrangements.

Chu Yizhao was pressed onto the bench by Chu Huai and punished according to the family rules.

He didn't tell the reason, but just ordered his servants to beat him. Chu Yizhao knew that begging for mercy was useless, so he just endured it.

Such a big thing happened, even if she didn't do it, Chu Huai would vent his anger on her.

Mad Dog…

The servants were all Chu Huai's men and they beat him hard. Chu Yizhao was delicate and tender, and he almost fainted after a few beatings.

"Oh, I came at a bad time."

Chu Yizhao heard a familiar voice while sweating profusely. She squinted her eyes and looked up.

Under the cover of the sun, the tall figure looked down, his face was pitch black, and the jade crown on top of his head let in a thin layer of light.

The pain in his hips made his eyes go dark, and his head tilted down little by little.

As the scorching sun fades, the body feels a wave of coolness.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in a strange yet familiar room, and in a strange yet familiar person.

Chu Yizhao turned around and looked...
