I was chased by my sickly junior brother who had two lives
Chapter 6 Go My Own Way
Prime Minister Cui walked in with a large group of guards. The old lady was a little afraid when she saw Prime Minister Cui. She looked at Yang Xiu at a loss, and then looked at Minister Chen and his wife uneasily. After all, Minister Chen was an old hand, so he immediately put on a smile and walked towards Prime Minister Cui.
Minister Chen smiled flatteringly, "Prime Minister Cui, why..." Minister Chen looked at the armored guards behind him and asked in confusion, "Why did you bring so many people?"
Yang Xiu also realized the seriousness of the matter. He clasped his fists and bowed, somewhat puzzled, "Prime Minister Cui, have I done anything wrong? Why has this happened?"
After all, he was once Chen Jia's husband, so Prime Minister Cui wanted to give Yang Xiu some face. "Nothing, I'm not here to dispel the rumors."
Although he gave him some face, it didn't mean that Prime Minister Cui gave him a cold look. He took out the imperial edict from his sleeve and said loudly: "The imperial edict has arrived. Everyone listen to it."
After he finished speaking, everyone knelt down. Prime Minister Cui cleared his throat and continued, "The Emperor's decree says that Yang Xiu was originally a commoner, but later he was promoted to a military commander. He should have stabilized the harem and cleaned up the family tradition. However, Yang Qing wanted to stop marrying and remarry. Since it is difficult for a good couple to continue, the good marriage is regrettable. I specially grant Chen the good wife a letter of divorce, allowing Chen Jia to take Zhao Guogong's dowry back home to settle down. In addition, Yang Qing is granted to marry Sima Fei'er. This is decreed."
After Prime Minister Cui finished reading, Yang Xiu looked at Chen Jia in astonishment. Duke Zhao's Mansion? !
The only person in Daliang who was honored as Duke of Zhao was General Chen Changhui. It is rumored that Chen Changhui had only one son, so where did his daughter come from?
Also, since Chen Jia’s dowry was a gift from the emperor, how could it have come from the Duke of Zhao’s mansion?
The old lady stared with wide eyes as Prime Minister Cui handed the imperial edict to Chen Jia. She saw the guards coming in one after another and looking at the boxes. The dowry that Chen Jia brought was carefully placed in by the guards. Looking at more and more sealed boxes, the old lady's heart tightened.
The old lady ran over without thinking, jumped onto the box, waved her hands and pushed the guards away.
The old lady yelled, "This is our Yang family's money! Let's see who dares to take it away!"
The old lady held the box tightly, looking like a miser.
Yang Xiu felt ashamed. He walked over and held the old lady's hand, "Mom, don't be like this."
The old lady shook Yang Xiu's hand vigorously, but she couldn't shake off Yang Xiu who had been on the battlefield for a long time. She was very angry, "Xiu'er, this is money, money!"
Prime Minister Cui smiled disdainfully, "General Yang, His Majesty said to stabilize the harem and clean up the family tradition. Don't be confused. How can you clean up the world if you can't even clean up your own house?"
Yang Xiu held the old lady's wrist tightly. The old lady looked at Yang Xiu in surprise. Yang Xiu pulled the old lady off the box in an instant. The old lady was still struggling.
Yang Xiu whispered to the old lady, "Mother, are you going to destroy this family because of your willfulness?"
It was the first time the old lady saw her son’s expression like that. She looked at Yang Xiu with some fear and shrank her neck.
Yang Xiu turned around and bowed to Prime Minister Cui, "Prime Minister Cui, I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself."
Prime Minister Cui smiled faintly, "Someone just said that Chen Jia and Chen Jue are my illegitimate children. I am standing here now. Some people, please explain."
Minister Chen looked at his wife, who seemed frightened. She looked at Prime Minister Cui with some fear.
"Why, Madam Chen, do I still need you to be invited?"
Mrs. Chen Shangshu had to stand up and said, "Prime Minister Cui, I, I didn't lie. It was you who sent this brother and sister to our house."
"Indeed, I was the one who sent the Chen siblings to your home, but they are not illegitimate children."
Just as Prime Minister Cui finished speaking, another group of people arrived. The person who came was Wei Lang, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
Wei Lang glanced at Chen Jia and Yang Xiu who were sitting across the chair from him. He exchanged glances with Chen Jia, feeling indescribable joy in his heart.
When he knew that Chen Jia and Yang Xiu were getting divorced today, his heart seemed to have grown wings, and he couldn't wait for the divorce to come.
Fortunately, His Majesty asked him to formally welcome Chen Jue into the Dali Temple as the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, and asked him to help Chen Jue and his sister to show off. Not only did he go there with pleasure, he was also very excited in his heart. Perhaps this time, Chen Jia had a different impression of him.
Wei Lang strode in, and Yang Xiu also saw the look in Wei Lang's eyes just now. To be honest, no one would believe it if they said that Chen Jia had nothing to do with Wei Lang.
Wei Lang nodded to Chen Jia, who smiled. He bowed to Prime Minister Cui and looked at Chen Jue, "Duke Zhao, His Majesty has ordered me to welcome you to the Dali Temple as the Junior Minister of the Dali Temple."
Wei Lang took out the token, and as soon as Chen Jue took it, Yang Xiu's heart suddenly started beating faster.
Junior Minister of the Dali Temple! Duke of Zhao! Chen Jue...Chen Jue is Chen Changhui's only son?!
Yang Xiu looked at Chen Jia. Chen Changhui had only this one child, so who was Chen Jia? Was Chen Jia Chen Jue's biological sister?
Mrs. Chen Shangshu was very good at changing her attitude. She immediately smiled and said, "Oh, so you are the only son of Duke Zhao. No wonder your name is so nice. Ah Jue, you have lived in our Chen family for so long. After all, we are all members of the Chen family."
"I'm sorry, but my Chen is not the same as your Chen."
"What are you talking about? It was just a small incident. Your sister's dowry has been taken back. It's not that we won't help, right?"
As soon as Mrs. Chen Shangshu opened her mouth, Chen Jue sneered. He looked at Mrs. Chen Shangshu coldly, making her feel a little embarrassed.
Minister Chen immediately said, "Ajue, my husband and I have treated you very well, you can't..."
Chen Jue interrupted immediately, "What can we do? Who said that the consequences did not come as expected?"
Minister Chen was speechless. Chen Jue rolled his eyes at Minister Chen and looked at Wei Lang. "Thank you, Lord Wei, for coming here in person."
Wei Lang laughed. He looked at the large boxes around him, then at the stunned looks on the faces of all the Yang family members. He felt even better.
Wei Lang seemed to be talking to Chen Jue, but in fact he was talking to Chen Jia, "The mansion of Duke Zhao has been renovated. Today, His Majesty ordered me to help you two warm up the pots and stoves. Please come in."
Chen Jue put the token on his waist, walked up to Chen Jia and took Chen Jia's hand. Wei Lang looked at the folded hands and his eyes narrowed slightly.
When Yang Xiu saw the folded hands, his face suddenly fell, as if Chen Jia would never come back. He was inexplicably irritated, and as if he might have lost the most precious thing, which made him feel a little empty in his heart.
Yang Xiu couldn't help but speak, "Chen Jia, you are married after all. Even if he is your brother, you shouldn't be so intimate in front of so many people."
Yang Xiu emphasized the word "married" very strongly. He hoped that both Chen Jue and Wei Lang were aware of Chen Jia's current identity.
Chen Jue raised his eyebrows and smiled, "The imperial decree of divorce means that you and my sister have nothing to do with each other anymore. You don't have to meddle in other people's business." He turned to look at Chen Jia with a bright smile on his face, "Sister, from now on, we will live in the Duke of Zhao's mansion and never separate again."
Never separate again!? Yang Xiu and Wei Lang looked at Chen Jue at the same time. They were very uncomfortable with such words!
