Mrs. Shizi, she has excellent acting skills

Chapter 148 148 Conspiracy
The county lord of Pingle brewed a pot of tea for himself, and his every move was full of the elegance of a noble county lord.

But the meanness and hostility on her face sent chills down the spine.

To be looked at by Pingle County Lord is like being targeted by a poisonous snake.

Tonight is the Lantern Festival dinner in the palace. At this time in the past, she would always follow her grandmother and accept the flattery of everyone.

She can say boldly that no princess or princess is as beautiful as her.

But this year, after waiting for a long time, there was no post from the palace.

She couldn't help but inquired about it, and it turned out that it was because her idea had spread to the palace.

The empress in the palace felt that she was shameless and couldn't get on the stage, and she was afraid that she would spoil the princess, so she didn't send her a post.

There was a huge anger in her heart, but she didn't dare to vent it to the empress in the palace, so she thought of the culprit of everything.

If it wasn't for Fu Zhao, she wouldn't be in the predicament she is in today.

Now she is notorious, and her favorite cousin doesn't want her, so she resigned from her marriage.

And her voice, which she was always proud of, was also destroyed in that fire.

She rarely speaks to people now.

It was only in front of He Shi, a close friend in the boudoir, that he talked a little more.

He looked at County Lord Pingle and fell silent. She pursed her lips and sat down on the chair opposite to County Lord Pingle.

The Lord of Pingle County poured He a bowl of tea, and then said slowly: "I have investigated everything, and they still have to go to the temple. Wouldn't it be easier to do it when they leave the capital?"

He Shi was still a little unconfident.

The last few times he wanted to plot against Fu Zhao, Fu Zhao escaped, but this time, He was not sure.

"Ah, what are you worried about?" County Lord Pingle's sharp eyes pierced through He's thoughts.

He hesitated again and again before speaking, "I'm afraid...she's too cunning, we'll miss again."

The head of Pingle County sternly said: "Ah Ju, why are you still saying things that are frustrating? You are afraid of losing your hand, it's not because you put all your eggs in one basket. This time she couldn't turn around at all."

He Shi's eyelashes trembled, and he nodded silently.

Thinking of Song Ren, He's heart softened again.

No matter how bad Song Ren was, he was still her relative.

If he failed at this time, Song Ren must have no good end.

Seeing the hesitant look on He's face, County Lord Pingle really hated iron but steel.

Now her temperament has been smoothed out a bit, if it was the past, she would definitely hold He's ear and talk to He about the truth.

How could such a fearful person become a major event?

County Lord Pingle patted the table, attracting He's attention, and then said: "Since you are afraid, then leave everything to me. If anything happens, I will fully bear it."

He muttered, "That's not what I meant..."

"Okay, don't say anything else." County Lord Pingle interrupted her impatiently.

He lowered his head, like a child who did something wrong.

If the people of the Hou Mansion saw He's appearance like this, they would definitely be surprised.

Yinxiang waited behind He Shi, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

She secretly thought, if the He family could also show weakness in front of Chen Xin and give in, the He family and Chen Xin would not have come to where they are today.

If Mrs. He was as docile in front of Chen Xin as she was in front of Pingle County Lord, then Rose, mother and son would not be afraid at all.

But Mrs. He definitely didn't want to. Yin Xiang looked away and looked down at the tip of her shoe.

Fu Zhao returned to the Hou's mansion and got out of the carriage. It was Mrs. Cong who came out to meet her.

Today, Cong Shi is also wearing plain clothes.

The two walked inside together.

Mrs. Cong said as she walked, "Although I invited someone to come to my house for a ritual today, I still have to go to the temple. You have been out for so long, your mother-in-law won't say anything, right?"

Fu Zhao replied: "No, she will go to the palace tonight, so she won't care when I go back to the Marquis Mansion."

Hearing the word entering the palace, Cong stared in surprise.

I'm afraid she will never have the chance to enter the palace once in her life.

After walking a few steps, Fu Zhao saw servants coming in and out of Gao Zicen's yard.

Gao Zicen likes to be clean, so he will definitely be upset if so many people come in and out.

Fu Zhao opened his mouth and was about to say something when he remembered that Gao Zicen had left Fu's house.

She couldn't help laughing at herself.

Cong looked at the courtyard where Gao Zicen lived, then looked at the strange smile on Fu Zhao's face, and asked, "Zhao Zhao, what's wrong with you?"

Fu Zhao took a deep look at the courtyard where Gao Zicen lived, and replied flatly, "It's nothing."

Cong pursed her lips and did not continue to ask.

Today is a special day. It is said that twins have a sympathetic heart, and Fu Zhao must be the worst.

Cong took Fu Zhao's hand and pulled her inside.

For today, Master Fu also asked for leave and stayed at home, wearing a black robe.

Because Fu Zhao is a married woman, she sat in Cong's room and watched Fu Yi sit on the couch and play.

After a while, Fu Songzhou also came over.

Fu Songzhou was young, and when there were too many people, Cong was afraid that he would not be able to take care of him, so he asked Fu Songzhou to come over.

Fu Songzhou pouted dissatisfiedly.

Fu Zhao pulled Fu Songzhou to him, and asked softly, "Brother Zhou, what's wrong? Where did you get wronged?"

Fu Songzhou said: "I am no longer a child, but mother still treats me as a child. To say that I am there is to add trouble."

Fu Zhao patted Fu Songzhou's head, momentarily at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.

In his previous life, when his family was suffering the most, Fu Songzhou was forced to grow up and take responsibility for his family.

If possible, Fu Zhao didn't want Fu Songzhou to grow up so early.

Not hearing Fu Zhao's words, Fu Songzhou raised his head suspiciously, just in time to see the sadness on Fu Zhao's face.

Fu Songzhou remembered what day it is today.

Cong also told him that my aunt was sad, and she should care more about her.

Fu Songzhou opened his arms and hugged Fu Zhao suddenly.

Fu Zhao was taken aback for a moment, and then he heard Fu Songzhou pretend to be old-fashioned and said: "Auntie, I will protect you from now on!"

Fu Zhao's heart warmed, and his throat felt sour.She hugged Fu Songzhou back, "Okay, I will rely on Brother Zhou from now on."

Fu Songzhou said seriously: "I am my aunt's natal family, so my aunt can rely on me at ease."

Fu Zhao also stopped laughing and nodded seriously.

The two talked for a while, and then they heard the voice of doing things and chanting scriptures not far away.

The two fell silent, and even Fu Yi was sensible and silent, sitting quietly.

In the afternoon, Cong put Fu Yi to sleep, and after Fu Songzhou was settled, they were about to go to the temple.

Master Fu had some important business outside, so he had to go out, so he couldn't follow Fu Zhao and the others to the temple.
