Su Chongzheng looked around with a sly look and found that there were only his personal servant and Su Yunzhu's personal maid here.

Therefore, he knelt down in front of Su Yunzhu again!

Su Yunzhu was so shocked that she stood up suddenly and asked, "Brother, what are you doing?"

Kneeling down all the time will really shorten your life.

"Yunzhu, you really have to help me!"

"Third brother will be back soon. I happened to hear that Prince Li has cultivated power in the border areas. I am really scared!"

"I'm afraid that my third brother has colluded with Prince Li. What should I do if he puts our Su family to death?"

"Yunzhu, you are my biological sister, my dear sister, you must help me!"

Hearing this, Su Yunzhu's face darkened.

"Is this your attitude when begging others? You kneel down on purpose to force me to agree?" Su Yunzhu said unhappily.

Su Chongzheng still didn't get up, he lowered his head helplessly and said, "I also have no choice. I followed your arrangement and didn't provide assistance to the Duke's Mansion, which led to its decline. His former colleagues have been mocking me and provoking me openly and secretly!"

"I was really scared! And that Master Yan really stopped me on the street!"

"I'm afraid he doesn't know how to write the word death...!"

As he spoke, a strong murderous intent rose in Su Chongzheng's eyes!

Su Yunzhu saw it, but said calmly, "So what are you going to do?"

Su Chongzheng's eyes lit up and he said, "Of course I will seek the help of Madam Hou! Lord Ji is one of your majesty's confidants, and we have a close relationship when you led the army in person."

"Plus, with Prince Li back this time, His Majesty has decided to hold a Hongmen Banquet, and Lord Ji will be indispensable for his help at that time!"

"By the way, didn't Doctor Lu come back to treat the Marquis's leg? We in the court all know this."

Su Yunzhu nodded. Indeed, these were nothing new.

It is easy to find out who Imperial Doctor Lu treats in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

"..." Su Yunzhu walked back calmly, trying her best not to be kneeled by Su Chongzheng.

Su Chongzheng knelt down and pulled her skirt, saying, "Yunzhu! What happened back then was due to my negligence. I was wrong."

"But at least you are living a good life as a lady of a marquisate, right?"

"If you marry the young master, you will definitely end up eating half-cooked rice."

"After all, the Zhang family has done a favor to the Yan family. If the young master does not marry a girl from the Zhang family, the Zhang family will definitely find a chance to bring down the Yan family."

"This is also what the Yan family doesn't want to see. No matter what, if you marry into the Zhang family, the worst you can do is become a co-wife!"

"Can you bear it..."

After hearing this, Su Yunzhu's face turned cold and she felt extremely chilled in her heart!

How could Su Chongzheng have the right to say such confusing things?

If he had not admitted that "Su Yunzhu" falling into the water was an accident and had not investigated the Yan family for the murder, he would have gone to the Marquis' Mansion openly to ask for a concubine.

Why is "Su Yunzhu" so badly known?

Plus, Yan Xuan and "Su Yunzhu" were originally in love with each other, so they were a good match no matter what.

But since both families were so obsessed, they managed to barely save "Su Yunzhu" from her suffering.

But it cannot wash away their sin of being in collusion with others!

"So, you also benefited from the Zhang family?" Su Yunzhu suddenly questioned.

Su Chongzheng was so frightened that he began to avoid looking.

The Zhang family has been famous for its business for generations and is the richest family in the world. Although there are a few officials in the family, they are only minor officials who are not well-known.

In order to maintain the Zhang family's property, the Zhang family deliberately gave alms to this and that, even to the family of Mr. Yan!

I never thought that Master Yan would be so kind to Your Majesty and be honored with the title of Duke.

After the Zhang family found out, they threatened the Duke's Mansion to marry a girl from the Zhang family, otherwise they would unite the entire Zhang family to bring down the Duke Yan's Mansion!

At that time, the Duke's Mansion had just established itself and had not yet adapted to the situation. When it was learned that the Zhang family had so much wealth and had done favors to so many officials, Duke Yan forced his son Yan Xuan to marry a daughter of the Zhang family.

At this point, the Duke's Mansion also received financial support from the Zhang family, and the Zhang family also received power and favors from the Duke's Mansion!

The two companies are mutually beneficial and win-win.

But now that the Duke's Mansion has fallen into decline, the Zhang family has returned to its former glory overnight, and Zhang had to give up the favor reluctantly.

Su Chongzheng didn't expect Su Yunzhu's train of thought and was stunned for a moment.

Su Yunzhu said coldly, "The two families can legitimately discuss and cancel the engagement, why do you insist on humiliating me like this?"

"Even though... I was obsessed with love back then, I can understand if you tell me the truth."

"Instead of causing unrest between the two families like it is now."

"Besides, you have done more than just this. You have even harmed my third brother Li Song."

"You still have the nerve to beg me?"

Su Chongzheng immediately woke up and said, "Of course I ask for it! Yunzhu, think about it, if the Su family declines, how can you gain a foothold in the Marquis' Mansion without your mother's family?"

"I am your mother's family! As long as your brother is here, you are still a girl from the Su family after all!"

Su Yunzhu smiled, her eyes were wanton and deep.

The third brother, Su Lisong, can also be a member of my mother’s family, and he is more stable and reliable, unlike his eldest brother who is so sinister and cunning and uses intimidation and inducement!

But Su Yunzhu didn't say it, she just said calmly, "So, how do you want me to help you?"

"I didn't force you into anything concerning the Yan family. I let you make the choice."

"If you dare let me hurt Li Song, everything will come to nothing!"

Hearing this, Su Chongzheng was shocked.

Does she know what she is thinking?

Su Chongzheng's eyes flickered, and he quickly reacted and said, "How could I possibly hurt Lisong? I just want you to apologize to Lisong on my behalf first."

"I'm afraid he'll come back and hate me, and take revenge on me right away."

"You know, the three of us are a family. Shouldn't we be together as one?"

"If he is willing to reconcile, I will compensate him well. Also, I have raised Shaolan for more than ten years without neglecting her. She has lived such a good life as a young lady, and I have never let her choose her husband's family at will and suffer."

"I won't talk about the Yan family anymore. It's all in the past. I just need to bear with it."

After hearing this, Su Yunzhu fell into deep thought.

It seems that Su Chongzheng was cautious enough, but it was too late.

No matter what he said, Su Yunzhu was too lazy to respond directly as she already had her own opinions and ideas!

After casually comforting Su Chongzheng and letting him leave, Su Yunzhu sat down exhausted.

When Huo Yudi saw that her mother-in-law had finished her work, she ordered someone to serve her some snacks to calm her down.

Then Huo Yudi told her something, "Mother-in-law, I just learned about the prince's news."

"what?"

"The prince went to Master Lu's house with Lin Ying'er."

Su Yunzhu was puzzled, "Master Lu?"

A bit of an impression, but not much.

Huo Yudi reminded, "It's the family of your best friend's ex-husband, who is now the county magistrate."

"My daughter-in-law is worried that the prince will do something that will harm the Marquis's mansion."

"After all, you have removed the title of Crown Prince from the list of the Marquisate, but it has not been made public yet."

Su Yunzhu reacted immediately, and quickly grabbed Huo Yudi's wrist and said, "We almost missed something important!"

Lin Ying'er will still cling to the Lu family and take action against the Marquis' Mansion!
