The daily life of a concubine's daughter

Chapter 227 Zheng Family Temple

The Duke of Zhenguo lowered his head, his collar wet with tears.

His Zhuzhu has been proud all her life, but now she is going to fall into the quagmire and never be able to get back on her feet?

No, there are five princes!

Zhuzhu said that in the prophet's dream, the fifth prince finally ascended the throne, and the fifth prince loved her deeply.

There is still hope!

As long as the fifth prince ascends the throne, Zhuzhu still has hope of becoming the queen!

Or maybe, if the Fourth Prince had never fallen in love with Shi Yao in this life, he might not have demoted his wife to a concubine as he did in the prophet's dream - the Duke of Zhenguo smiled bitterly, why should the Fourth Prince demote his wife to a concubine, Zhuzhu was already a concubine.

All in all, after a period of wild thoughts, the Duke of Zhenguo rekindled a glimmer of hope.

The old Duke sat in the upper seat, quietly taking in the expressions of all his children and grandchildren, and slowly asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Fu Nanjun took a step forward and looked back at Shi Yao, his eyes softened a little, and then he said solemnly: "Old Master, Fourth Sister Ge also had a dream, and probably didn't want to get involved in the Shi family's mess again, so she insisted on breaking off the engagement with Eighth Brother.

We speculate that maybe Miss Xie also had a dream, and that’s why she broke off the engagement with my seventh brother. I hope the old man and the old lady know about this.”

Shi Minghui clenched his back teeth, his mouth full of bitterness.

When his father told him about the prophetic dream, he guessed that Ge Qiuheng must have had a similar dream, which was why he suddenly changed his personality.

Shi Mingchen, who had already been stunned, was startled when he heard this and smiled bitterly.

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder the Xie and Ge families were rushing to cancel the engagement.

The old Duke laughed sarcastically, "No wonder so many people rushed to rescue the Prince of Changning County at Ziyang Villa that day. It turns out the root of the problem is here."

The reborn ones all hung their heads guiltily.

The third master Shi Jianan asked anxiously: "Father, will the Xie family and the Ge family report us?"

The old Duke said coldly, "What good will it do them to report us? If you behave yourself, they won't be able to find evidence of treason."

The flame of hope in the Duke of Zhenguo's heart was extinguished with a puff.

With the wolf Ningyuan Hou watching him, how could he dare to do anything?

Without the cooperation between the Shi family and the Prince of Changning's Mansion, how could the prince have fallen?

Unless the crown prince falls, neither Zhou Xu nor Zhou Shao will be able to ascend the throne.

The Duke of Zhenguo's heart sank again and again.

Fu Nanjun continued, "Fourth sister Ge told me that in the previous life, Shi Yao harmed my eldest sister, tried to gain attention at the poetry meeting, and even wanted to frame the fifth prince. This is because the eldest master and the eldest mistress wanted to marry Shi Yao to the son of the Prince of Changning, the Crown Prince Zhou Ji, in order to pave the way for Zhuzhu to become the queen!

In our dream, Zhou Jishizi was a fool first, then he fell into the water and was not rescued in time, and became a paraplegic. Shi Yao refused to submit to this marriage, so she plotted against the fifth prince.

Later, her reputation was ruined, and her parents-in-law arranged another marriage for her. She was with Lu Ying, the governor of Huguang who was over 50 years old, to be Mr. Lu's second wife.

Two years after her marriage, she became a widow and had no children. In the end, somehow she became the fourth prince's concubine and eventually ascended the throne.

"The old man and the old lady know clearly that my second sister is not the evil person that my mother-in-law said she was. It's just that a woman's fate is beyond her control. Even if she tries her best, it's still like an ant trying to shake a tree!"

Shi Yao squeezed her eyes hard, but no tears came out. She pinched her thighs hard and begged in a sobbing voice, "Grandpa and grandma, help me! I don't want to marry a fool, and I don't want to marry an old man!"

The lady stretched out her hand and said distressedly, "Girl, come to grandma!"

Shi Yao couldn't help but feel happy. She finally didn't have to kneel anymore. Her knees were aching so much!

She jumped up and threw herself into the old lady's arms: "Grandma, help me!"

The lady patted her gently, raised her hand and grabbed a teacup and threw it at Zheng, cursing, "You despicable thing! When you mentioned Zhou Jishizi to me, I shouldn't have refused politely, I should have torn your mouth apart!

You two have such dirty thoughts in mind, and you gossip and confuse right and wrong, saying that Yao girl has killed the lives of everyone in our house.

In my opinion, the whole Shi family was executed in their dreams because of you two evil-hearted couples! Zhuzhu ended up being a concubine because of you!

You can hide it from others, but not from me. You designed to drug the Fourth Prince and instruct Gong to knock Yao girl unconscious and send her to the outer courtyard. You two are the thieves! You two are the source of the chaos in the family!"

The hall suddenly became chaotic.

Zheng's head was bleeding and she was in so much pain that tears were streaming down her face. She kowtowed and said, "I am ashamed that the old lady humiliated me like this! How dare I have such thoughts? Everything I did was for the prosperity of the Shi family for the next hundred years!"

The Duke of Zhenguo was heartbroken.

Shi Mingwei and Shi Minghui had never seen their mother being beaten or scolded, so they did not dare to resent the lady and only glared at Shi Yao.

And what about Shi Yao?

He buried his head in the lady's arms and cried, and at the same time he was just about to wag his tail.

So happy!

In this world, mothers-in-law naturally suppress their vicious daughters-in-law!

No wonder they say that it takes many years for a daughter-in-law to become a mother-in-law. It shows that every daughter-in-law dreams of becoming a mother-in-law.

When the Madam heard Zheng's high-sounding words about doing it for the Shi family, she was so angry that she threw her own teacup, snatched the teacup that the old Duke had handed to her, and threw it at Zheng:

"Bullshit! If you really have the Shi family in your heart, you should have taken the initiative to take the blame the day before yesterday and went to the Fourth Prince and the palace to plead guilty, instead of pushing the three brothers Mingzhen, Mingkui, and Mingying out to take the blame for you!

You are so calculating, you take advantage of the elders, and when something happens, you hide away and ask your nephews to take the blame for you! You see that there are only fools and idiots in the house, and you are fooling around with them!"

The old Duke held the empty tea tray in his hand, sighed helplessly, and threw the tray away.

Smash the Duke of Zhenguo.

This couple, one is insidious and the other is vicious, both deserve a lesson.

Shi Yao smiled and said: This old couple, the main feature is that the wife follows the husband.

Zheng had never suffered such a great humiliation. She cried and shouted that she wanted to die to pay for the misfortune that had befallen her three brothers Shi Mingkui, Shi Mingzhen and Shi Mingying!

Shi Mingzhen and Shi Mingying tried to stop them despite their injuries.

Zheng was about to hit his head against the pillar, but instead hit Shi Mingying in the stomach. The pain made his tall body fall to the ground, where he curled up like a cooked shrimp.

Shi Mingzhen was a step too late and was not as quick as his brother. He could only help Shi Mingying up with one hand and hold Zheng with the other.

Shi Mingwei and Shi Minghui spoke up to plead for their parents, but people from the second room tried to stop them, and the third room remained silent.

The old Duke had a splitting headache, and the sound of mosquitoes buzzing in his ears. He shouted, "Be quiet! Are you guys going to rebel? Zheng, don't act like you're seeking death. If you are really ashamed, you should ask to leave!"

Zheng paused in crying, then continued to cry, "I won't live any longer..."

She had just cried a few words when she saw the old duke's frowning glare and a face full of anger and majesty. She was so frightened that her heart trembled and she dared not cry anymore.

The old Duke said coldly: "That's it. Either you ask to leave, or you go to the family temple to practice asceticism. Our Shi family can't afford to support a Buddha like you who only dreams of wealth and glory!"

Zheng was completely frightened and cried, "Grandpa, I won't dare to do it again! Please forgive me for all my hard work over the years!"
