As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 223 Women Are Trouble
"I don't think it's a big deal." Xie Zhaozhao thought for a while and said, "The third sister is just annoyed right now. Just tease Yue Ya for a while, but you can't say anything unpleasant to her in the future."

"I know, I know!"

Xie Changyuan sighed loudly and murmured: "Women are trouble."

"what?"

Xie Zhaozhao was stunned for a moment, "What did you just say? Did I hear you correctly?"

Xie Changyuan glanced at Xie Zhaozhao and continued to eat.

Xie Zhaozhao was very curious and dragged his stool closer to Xie Changyuan, "Let me tell you, Fifth Brother, what happened to you to make you feel like this?"

Xie Changyuan loves and cherishes beauties, and always says, "Girls are just delicate flowers, they should be pampered and coaxed well." Now he actually calls women troublesome?
Xie Zhaozhao didn't believe that it was just because the third sister choked a few times.

"It's nothing..." Xie Changyuan said lazily, then suddenly said after a pause: "I met Chen Shulan last night."

Xie Zhaozhao was startled, "Outside?"

"Of course, is it possible that I can go to her house?" Xie Changyuan said angrily: "I met her and wanted to die."

"what?"

Xie Zhaozhao was startled again, "Then you——"

"Of course I am a hero who saves the beauty." Xie Changyuan curled his lips and said, "Bring her to my boat, and then the Chen family came and took her away."

Xie Zhaozhao breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

"You don't seem to hate her at all?"

"Of course." Xie Zhaozhao nodded: "Why do you hate her? She just can't help herself."

Xie Changyuan thought of Chen Shulan's despairing, colorless eyes when he saw her last night, and sighed quietly for a moment.

Most women in this world just follow the crowd.

Those women from wealthy families seem to have no shortage of gold, silver, wealth and status, but it is more difficult for them to control their own destiny than women from ordinary families.

Chen Shulan is the granddaughter of the Prince of Zhongshan. She has a father who is as eager for quick success as Chen Zhiyuan. She also likes Chen Qingci, the servant of the house. It is no wonder that she is depressed and cannot live anymore and wants to die.

Xie Changyuan suddenly asked: "Little sister, if you were Chen Shulan, what would you do?"

"..."

Xie Zhaozhao thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know."

After a pause, she added: "If I encounter something difficult, I will consider my family first, and then other things."

He probably won't seek death either.

In her previous life, something happened to the Xie family, and she was all focused on avenging her family. At that time, she didn't even think about getting close to Chu Nanxuan.

After being reborn, her family was here, and her idea became even stronger.

Call her greedy, she just wants all her family members to be well and happy.

"Oh, that's it." Xie Changyuan touched his chin and asked: "What about Yun Qi? You have to consider your family first before you consider him?"

"..."

Xie Zhaozhao was silent for a while, remembering the way Yun Qi held her and fell asleep on her shoulder last night, he couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of his lips, with a warm and sweet smile.

Xie Changyuan couldn't bear it and shook his head repeatedly, "Stop laughing, I'm going to get goosebumps!"

Xie Zhaozhao's smile widened and he said softly: "If it is between Fifth Brother and Yun Qi, I will naturally consider Yun Qi directly and will not care about you."

"what?"

Xie Changyuan asked: "Why?"

"Just because you sell your sister for glory!" Xie Zhaozhao said slowly: "You don't deserve my consideration."

Xie Changyuan was greatly shocked and looked heartbroken.

That artificial look made Xie Zhaozhao laugh continuously, and the brother and sister laughed for a while before they stopped.

……

The Duke of Liang, Xie Wei, and his wife were deported from the capital, and Xie Jiajia returned home with Li.These two things should have caused no one to pay attention to Liang Guogong's New Year's Eve, but because Xie Zhaozhao was named the head of Yuanyi County, people sent gifts one after another.

Even the prince and the palace sent gifts.

It is naturally impossible for the other princes and princes to fall behind.

All gifts must be returned, and the severity has its own rules.

Xie Zhaozhao is busy dealing with these things, but it is rare for him to be busy.

However, Pingzhanghou Courtyard has become the place with the least festive atmosphere in the entire capital.

When Chen Shulan came back on New Year's Eve, Chen Zhiyuan, the Marquis of Pingzhang, came home angrily. By coincidence, he saw Chen Shulan's dirty skirt.

Aunt Liu did not dare to say that she had lost her lady, but she could only say that the river lanterns stained her clothes.

Of course, he couldn't avoid being scolded by Chen Zhiyuan.

Chen Shulan caught the cold because she was wearing a wet dress, so she didn't have the energy to talk back to Chen Zhiyuan, so she was taken back to the room to take care of her.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the doctor at my house saw him and prescribed medicine.

But by the seventh or eighth day of the lunar month, his body had no color at all.

Aunt Liu boldly went to see Pingzhang Hou, hoping that he could invite an imperial doctor to come over.

Chen Zhiyuan originally came to Beijing to help him seize the title through the help of King Liang, but he did not want to let Yun Qi go. He wanted to have both sides.

Who knows that things are not going well between the two sides now.

What if King Liang's poisonous snake really gets angry?
In the past few days, Chen Zhiyuan has been contacting friends in North Korea and China for this matter and has been running around a lot.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Xuanwu found out about this little trick, and sent a eunuch to deliver the message, saying that he knew Miss Chen was ill and asked Chen Zhiyuan to take good care of his daughter and stop walking outside.

Isn't this just a way of knocking him out of his shell?

Chen Zhiyuan was very angry about this matter. At this time, Grandma Liu also said that Chen Shulan was ill and could not get up and needed to see an imperial doctor. Her face suddenly became very ugly.

"What's going on with the doctor at home? Can't he cure her illness?" Chen Zhiyuan said coldly: "Or she is deliberately ill and unable to get up, and she insists on bringing bad luck to me!"

Aunt Liu cried out in her heart that she had committed evil.

Mr. Hou actually thought that the young lady was pretending to be sick?

But she could only smile apologetically, "Young lady is not accustomed to the local environment. Her body was exhausted due to poor eating and drinking. She caught a cold that night and was so sick that she couldn't get up. Mr. Marquis... please ask an imperial doctor to look at the young lady. Look, it’s not okay to keep going like this!”

Chen Zhiyuan was in a very bad mood.

He went to Chen Shulan's yard with a sullen face, and after just one glance, he felt in his heart that she wouldn't live for more than a few days.

Chen Shulan was the emperor's grandson's concubine in the early years. If the royal family did not grant marriage, then in order to appease the Chen family, Chen Shulan would definitely have to be given another good marriage.

In other words, Chen Shulan's marriage was very helpful to him, so how could he die like this?

Chen Zhiyuan immediately asked someone to take his post and go to Tai Hospital to hire someone.

……

Xie Zhaozhao worked hard for less than half a month, and finally returned all the gifts that should be returned on the tenth day of the lunar month.

The palace specially ordered her not to go to express gratitude, but Xie Zhaozhao did not dare to take advantage of it, so she still went to the palace.

Every new year, the court would seal it for half a month.

From the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month to the tenth day of the lunar month.

Today is the last day to seal, but Emperor Xuanwu is already busy.

He would not personally attend to every issue of the new year's sacrifices, official assessments, military examinations, spring plowing, flood and drought prevention, and many other matters, but would also pay careful attention to them.

Naturally, he had to meet with the ministers, and there was no time to wait for Xie Zhaozhao to go and thank him and kowtow.

Xie Zhaozhao kowtowed outside the royal study as a token of his gratitude, and then went to Xianfu Palace to pay a visit to the Concubine Xian.

During the Chinese New Year, Concubine Xian also gave me something, so I must thank her for this kindness.
