Chapter 96 We finally met, big brother
Warm blood sprayed out, Shu Nuo looked fiercely at the unbelievable servants in front of him, the pointed end of the awl smashed into his side of the head, before he could react what happened, there was a "plop" Limp on the ground, breathless.

Panting heavily, Shu Nuo raised his sleeves to wipe off the blood on his face, picked up the oil lamp and squatted down, and opened the skirts of his servants to search carefully.

"Boy, you are cruel enough."

The sound of the clanging iron chains stopped at some point, and Shu Zhenyuan's voice was soft, and if he listened carefully, he could detect a trace of excitement revealed.

Shu Nuo didn't have time to talk to him, she rummaged back and forth, and finally found a long bunch of keys in the crevices of her clothes. She raised her legs and stepped over the fallen corpse, and walked slowly to the nearby dark cell holding the oil lamp.

A huge, non-transparent iron door was separated in front of her.

Shu Nuo was a little taken aback, and always thought that Shu Zhenyuan was just thrown on the thatch pile like her and ignored, but looking at it now, it seems that things are far from that simple.

"Big brother?"

She tapped on the iron door with her finger.

The sound of the iron chains rubbing inside became more intense and chaotic. Shu Zhenyuan seemed very excited and impatient. Shu Nuo thought he would urge to open the prison door quickly, but the iron chains vibrated for a while and then quietly stopped, and Shu Zhenyuan didn't say anything from the beginning to the end. One sentence.

"Big brother?"

Shu Nuo murmured again, but there was no more sound from inside.

She hung the oil lamp on the stone wall and shifted the angle so that the light was right on the keyhole. She picked up the long bunch of keys and rummaged through them one by one, trying them one by one. Finally, with a 'click', the iron door slowly opened.

A stench came from inside. Shu Nuo raised his sleeves to cover his mouth and nose but couldn't help coughing twice. He took down the oil lamp hanging on the wall, pushed open the iron door and walked in. The ground was covered with dry and cracked weeds. It was so thick that Shu Nuo didn't dare to move forward because it was so dark that he couldn't see his fingers. He took a few steps forward tentatively, and when he took the seventh step, a smirk suddenly came from his ear:
"Go any further and you're going to hit the wall."

Shu Nuo suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand to probe forward, and sure enough, he touched the cold wall.

"Big brother?"

"Boy, I really didn't expect you to open the door."

Shu Zhenyuan's hoarse voice suddenly became very clear, Shu Nuo stood still, just raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "What is the big brother talking about, you and I are brothers, there is no reason for brothers not to help each other .”

"Hehe..." Shu Zhenyuan sneered twice but didn't say anything else, just said, "Listen to me, come over slowly."

Shu Nuo nodded: "OK."

"Turn left and go forward."

"Stop, there's a bucket ahead, go around."

"Go on."

……

Shu Nuo followed his instructions and walked slowly, but when he said 'come closer', she suddenly stopped and did not continue.

Shu Zhenyuan asked her suspiciously, "Why don't you leave?"

Shu Nuo was expressionless: "Brother, I'm more honest, but I'm not stupid, do you think I won't know if I'm near or far from you by lowering my voice?"

The voice in front of him stopped dumbly, Shu Nuo took two steps back, squatted down, and stretched forward the candle held in his left hand, the pea-sized light flickered and moved upwards, Shu Nuo saw a face that could be called wild , the sharp eyebrows are raised upwards, the eyes are slanted and deep, like an eagle watching its prey, the cheeks are thin but tough.

The oil lamp moved down slowly, the old and messy clothes no longer fit well, and iron chains as thick as tree trunks were tied around his broad wrists.

Shu Nuo raised his eyes to meet his eagle-like eyes again, and said with a faint smile, "We finally meet, big brother."

……

The warm sun on the climbing treetops is already shining on the earth.

The newlyweds are supposed to offer tea to their mother-in-law when they get up the next day, but Concubine Fu is insane, even Shu Jicheng tried to treat her, but she has been tortured by Shu Nuo for a long time, no matter how he treats her, it will be useless.

Shu Jicheng doesn't like Shu Nuo, no matter the struggle for power or their personal grievances, he doesn't like her, but...

He frowned, and let Fu Yunli bring him some tea to rinse his mouth, and then changed into a set of light and comfortable clothes.

Fu Yunli's long hair was tied into a woman's bun, which made her beautiful appearance a little more mature and dignified. She stretched out her hand to tie the belt for him, and said with some hesitation: "After the wedding, you can rest for three days, you... ..."

"I still have something to do." Shu Jicheng interrupted her without hesitation, "You don't need to serve anyone in this mansion, you just need to sit down comfortably with your second concubine, and don't interfere with other things gone."

On the first day of their wedding, her husband treated her coldly. Fu Yunli felt very uncomfortable and pulled Shu Jicheng's collar more and more tightly. She raised her head and just summoned up the courage to ask him to stay with her. The servant outside the door Suddenly came the message:
"Your Highness, Marquis Chu Ling is waiting for you and the imperial concubine in the front hall."

"Wait for us?"

Shu Jicheng was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at Fu Yunli and found that she was also at a loss, so he calmed down and said, "I know, I'll go right away."

The figure outside the door receded, Fu Yunli looked at Shu Jicheng's frown, and unconsciously stretched out his hand to smooth it out for him: "What's the matter with Chu Jiangsu looking for us? Could it be because of the prince?"

"Why, are you worried?" Shu Jicheng held her wrist, avoiding the hand that was about to touch the center of her brow, "Don't forget that you are married, no matter what relationship Shu Nuo had with you before, you have to be honest now." Take it easy on the ground, don’t always think about what you have and what you don’t.”

"I..." Fu Yunli really didn't expect her unintentional words to provoke Shu Jicheng's reaction, she looked at him in disbelief, "Don't you know what kind of person I am?"

"I know, that's why I just warned you." Shu Jicheng let go of her hand, straightened the folds on the sleeves of his robe, turned around and said, "Let's go, Chu Jiangsu is still waiting for us."

In the lobby, the bright safflower silk satin has not been taken off, and the ink painting outlining the white crane and Hsinchu hangs high in front of the hall. Chu Jiangsu sits on the main seat, holding a teacup with his fingertips and turning back and forth.

"Uncle Royal."

Shu Jicheng and Fu Yunli came to him and saluted respectfully, looking at his calm look, they were even more puzzled.

"Uncle Emperor." Shu Jicheng asked, "Did you ask us to come?"

"Look at what my nephew said." Chu Jiangsu put down his teacup, propped his head and looked at them with a half-smile, "Isn't it time to serve tea to the elders on the first day of the wedding? But I sat here and waited for a long time, but I didn't see you coming." , I have to invite my uncle, it's really... oh."

Shu Jicheng's voice choked up. Serving tea to the elders on the first day of the wedding was indeed a thing, but it was only for parents or brothers and sisters. It was the first time I heard of serving tea to uncles, and they were not related by blood.

 Yesterday’s meme was not good, and the big treasures didn’t comment much. Let me think about it again today, and change to a new meme (meditation...), do you have any good suggestions? (*ω)
