Dayu Execution Officer, begins to torture the demon girl's fiancee

Chapter 18 Sister is coming back!

"Survived..."

The moment he walked out of the Empress Dowager Zhao's bedroom, Zhao Cuo's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he looked at the bright palace in front of him with a dazed expression.

'That damned witch! '

The sense of relief in his heart only lasted for a moment, and then he clenched his fists with a face as heavy as water. Thinking of the domineering posture of the empress dowager and the humiliation he suffered just now, Mr. Zhao felt that he didn't need to eat breakfast. full.

"Women in this world are too bad..."

Suddenly, the cold face of His Royal Highness Yaozu reappeared in Zhao Cuo's mind.

"No fault."

A familiar voice with concern came to Zhao Cuo's ears, and he turned his head subconsciously to see that it was his father Zheng Guogong.

"You didn't... what did the empress tell you?"

Grandpa Guo had a handsome old face, and looked his son up and down. Seeing that Zhao Cuo was not missing any arms or legs, he swallowed the words of concern that came to his lips, and then changed into a cold one. Tone, trying to show the attitude of a strict father.

"Father……"

Zhao Cuo pursed his lower lips, thinking of what the Queen Mother said just now that his father was also transferred from the capital because of this incident, he suppressed the resentment in his heart and said in a comforting tone:
"I'm ok."

Zheng Guogong was stunned for a moment, noticed the depressive emotion in Zhao Cuo's eyes, and immediately thought that he might have been humiliated in the empress hall. The love of protecting the calf made the head of the Zhao family immediately clenched his fists, but he was soon unable to let go.

"Let's... go home first."

When I entered the palace, the night was deep and the moon was bright, but when I left, it was already high in the sun.With such a big incident last night, the Zhao family, which used to be crowded with people, is now deserted and quiet, and the gate of the house is closed.

After returning home to freshen up, Mr. Zhao had no time to rest.

The breakfast table becomes a conference table.

"I just said that I shouldn't be married to that Xia's family! How can there be such a disaster if Cuo'er is married to his sister! Our family is no less attractive than that witch, and she is a world-renowned talented woman. The most important thing is I know how to love my brother..."

"enough!"

Hearing his wife's words, Zheng Guogong Zhao Gan sighed helplessly, and said in a deep voice:
"Don't say such things again, and now is not the time to discuss the marriage without blame. The important thing is how our Zhao family can get through this hurdle."

"Yes……"

Su Jinnian, the Duke's wife, flattened her lower lip, pulled the hand of Zhao Cuo who was sitting beside her with a desolate expression, held it in her palm and rubbed it gently.

"The empress dowager is so cruel. It's fine to transfer us to work in the south of the Yangtze River, but let the children stay in Beijing. Don't know when we will meet again? My fault..."

Zhao Cuo quietly ate the white flour steamed buns without making a sound. He already knew the specific treatment of the queen mother for his own father: he was transferred to the post of governor of Jiangnan for a term of six years, and he would not return to Beijing.

Complete relegation.Although Jiangnan is a fertile land, leaving Xiang Jing as the center of power, the main line of the Zhao family, which used to be the top nobleman in the Dayu Dynasty, can be said to have lost power.

Great difference.

"Your Majesty has already opened the door this time."

Zheng Guogong shook his head and said.

"Regarding this incident, our Zhao family has nothing to say about being dismissed from the ranks. Now it is just transferred away from the capital. It may be that there is no chance to take advantage of the situation in the future. Don't worry about the temporary gains and losses."

"But how can I rest assured that the wrong person stays in this capital alone?"

Su Jinnian wiped away tears and said.

"Wugui is not too young..."

Grandpa Guo wanted to reprimand his wife for saying "a loving mother is a loser", but after thinking about it carefully, he seemed not qualified to say such a thing, so he could only say helplessly:
"I have already edited a book and sent it to Xunshan College, so that Xinxin can come back and preside over the affairs of the mansion. Don't you worry about her?"

"That's how it should be!"

The Duke's wife, who had full trust in the adoptive daughter, let out a long sigh of relief, and turned her face towards Zhao Cuo with a stern tone.

"As the so-called elder sister is like a mother, you are still young, and you should consult your elder sister for everything in the future. This is different from the past. After your father and I leave Beijing, you must not act willfully again!"

"Yes Yes."

Zhao Cuo wanted to roll his eyes a little bit, just now he said that he wanted to marry his sister-in-law, but now he said something about the elder sister...

"Father, mother, you don't have to worry about me."

After hesitating for a while, he spoke again. Under the suspicious eyes of his parents, Zhao Cuo said slowly:
"The Empress Dowager has not given up on our Zhao family. Just now in the palace of the empress, she personally ordered me to serve in the Department of Criminal Execution. As long as I do my job well, Zheng Guogong's mansion will not decline."

'Otherwise, the Zhao family will be imprisoned in the Demon Lock City forever. '

He didn't say that.

"Is this true?"

Zheng Guogong opened his eyes wide.

"My mother said it herself."

Zhao wrongly nodded.He said these words for no other purpose, but to hope that his parents could leave Beijing to take office with peace of mind.

"Great!"

The Duke's wife was also overjoyed for a while, and then she showed worry and said uneasy:

"Banjun and Hu, you should do your best to do things for your mother when you make a mistake, and you must not step on the wrong foot."

Hearing this, Zheng Guogong and Zhao Gan's face lost the joy just now. He still knew the character of the female boss who had been with him for many years.

"No fault...don't let the empress dowager down."

He opened his mouth and hesitated for a while before saying this.

It sounds encouraging, but all three of you here know what it would be like to let that woman down.

The breakfast in Zheng Guogong's mansion ended in gloom. This was actually the last meal for the family.

"The Empress Dowager's order! Appoint Zheng Guogong and Zhao Gan as the governor of the south of the Yangtze River. He will set off immediately and be escorted by a thousand martial arts soldiers. There must be no mistakes!"

It can be seen from this that the Queen Mother Zhao is really ruthless. Zheng Guogong's mansion has not recovered from the storm last night, so it made a decree to separate the family members.

……

"Can so much happen in less than a day?"

Zhao Cuo stood at the gate of the mansion and watched the imposing send-off team of his parents leave. It took him a while to react from his stupefaction, and raised his hand to rub his aching forehead.

It has only been one night since I came to this world. Yesterday, I was the bridegroom officer envied by thousands of people, but in a blink of an eye, I became a son of a down-and-out nobleman.

Well, it’s not that far yet. Even the current Zhao family is still a wealthy family. Although there are only a few people in the main family, there are many high-ranking side branches. No one can easily shake them except the current queen mother. .

"The Empress Dowager... and Xia Yaonv!"

Zhao took a deep breath by mistake, then turned around and returned to the mansion.He can't pretend that what happened last night until now didn't happen, but the most urgent thing is to suppress the dragon vein worm in his body!
