Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 416 Holding a grudge

Chapter 416 Holding a grudge
Hearing Zhao Wangshu's question, Zhao Jiahua covered her mouth with a fan and chuckled, "Sister Wangshu, don't you think this is what they call 30 years in the east, 30 years in the west?"

Zhao Wangshu's eyes flickered slightly. She had already suspected that it was Prince Zuo who arranged Xiang Jian to impeach Yun Hao. Zhao Jiahua was almost saying it directly.

"I advise Madam Zhao not to get carried away. The one who calls the shots in the court now is His Majesty, not the prince of your mansion." Zhao Wangshu said calmly.

Zhao Jiahua snorted, "It's only a matter of time."

"Then please wait for that day to come again." Zhao Wangshu put the cup on the table and said, "Send the guest out."

"Hey, I haven't said anything yet." Zhao Jiahua said anxiously.

"I know what Madam Zhao wants to say, but unfortunately I can't let Madam Zhao have her way. Please also tell your prince not to go too far. Even an eagle stalks a rabbit, there is still a chance. What's more, your prince is not an eagle, and the Yun family is not a rabbit." Zhao Wangshu said coldly.

Zhao Jiahua's face froze. She didn't expect Zhao Wangshu to speak so bluntly, and even contain a warning in his words.

"Sister Wangshu."

"Madam Zhao, there is no sisterly love between you and me anymore. You should just call me Madam Yun. It's not disgusting for you to call me sister, but it's disgusting for me." Zhao Wangshu interrupted her without any politeness.

"Mrs. Yun is really ungrateful. In that case, I won't say much. But Madam Yun, you have to understand that it is beyond your ability to try to stop a chariot with a mantis." Zhao Jiahua had been trying to lower her posture, but Zhao Wangshu remained unmoved, and she became annoyed.

Zhao Wangshu smiled slightly, with a hint of sarcasm and disdain in his smile: "If we are mantises, then what are the hidden arrows that hurt people? Rats?"

"I just hope that Madam Yun can be as eloquent as she is on the execution platform." Zhao Jiahua said this with a curse in mind.

Zhao Wangshu was not frightened by her words. He sneered and said, "I also hope that Madam Zhao can still be so arrogant in the future when she is living in the open air."

Zhao Jiahua's face turned pale in an instant. She didn't expect Zhao Wangshu to hit back at her so directly.

Zhao Jiahua hated Zhao Wangshu for being so ungrateful, but she also understood that arguing with him at this moment would only make her lose her composure even more.

Moreover, she came here to win over Zhao Wangshu, but for some reason, every time she saw Zhao Wangshu, after just a few words, she would be so angry with him that she forgot the purpose of her visit.

Zhao Jiahua suppressed his anger and said, "Sister Shu, do you remember when we were together in the mansion?"

"Mrs. Zhao, you don't need to reminisce about the past and rekindle our sisterhood. We no longer have any old feelings for each other since you tried to harm me. I'm meeting you not because of our old friendship, but because I want to tell you not to come to harass me again." Zhao Wangshu interrupted Zhao Jiahua again.

"Okay, Zhao Wangshu, since you are so stubborn, we will just wait and see." Zhao Jiahua said this and turned to leave.

At this moment, she hated Zhao Wangshu.

Zhao Wangshu looked at Zhao Jiahua's departing back and sighed. Prince Zuo would do anything to achieve his goal.

She turned back to Linglong Courtyard and entered the house, where she heard Zhao Yin teaching little Yunyu to shout, "Uncle, uncle."

The eleven-month-old Yunyu could already utter some simple syllables indistinctly. He stared at Zhao Yin with his big dark eyes, and babbled along, "Jiujiu, jiujiu."

"You are worthy of being my, Zhao Yin's, good nephew. At such a young age, he has learned to call uncle. That's great." Zhao Yin held little Yun Yu high, making little Yun Yu giggle.

"Brother, don't make him too excited, or he will be unable to sleep." Zhao Wangshu walked in and reminded with a smile.

"Okay, okay, uncle won't tease you anymore. Let's go to sleep, okay?" Zhao Yin held little Yunyu sideways and patted his little butt gently.

Little Yunyu is not a baby of one or two months old. He also has a temper and doesn't want to sleep. He struggles in Zhao Yin's arms and wants to sit up. "Ah, this kid is so strong, I can hardly hold him." Zhao Yin hugged him tightly.

Little Yunyu felt uncomfortable being clamped, and he twisted his little body and cried loudly.

"Come on, big brother, give him to me." Zhao Wangshu took his son and stroked his back. "Let's not sleep yet. Let's play for a while."

She held little Yunyu upright and let his head rest on her shoulder.

"What did Zhao Jiahua say?" Zhao Yin asked.

"What can she say to ridicule me?" Zhao Wangshu sneered.

"You don't understand. Even if Prince Zuo takes that position in the future, the position she, a mere concubine, can get won't be too high. Besides, she doesn't have the support of her natal family, so she won't be able to go far." Zhao Yin said contemptuously.

"She gave birth to Prince Zuo's eldest daughter, who is also the only child of Prince Zuo. A mother's status is determined by her daughter, so she feels that she has a chance to compete," Zhao Wangshu analyzed.

"Very ambitious." Zhao Yin snorted, "But I just don't have the ability to match it."

"She tried to win me over time and again, of course, in order to take the opportunity to please Prince Zuo, but she also did it for herself. If we become her helpers, her shortcoming of having no one in the court will be made up." Zhao Wangshu said.

"We will not be lured into this mess by her," Zhao Yin said seriously.

The brother and sister talked about Yun Hao's impeachment case for a while. Zhao Yin said, "Sister, if the King of Liao can't help, don't worry, I will take care of it. I know Yun Hao's character well. He is definitely not the kind of person the censor said."

"I'm not in a hurry, and you shouldn't be in a hurry either, brother. White can't be turned into black, and black can't be turned into white. Yun Hao and Jingbian Hou are not people without any foundation in the court. Prince Zuo and the others are too rash." The more Zhao Wangshu thought about it, the calmer he became.

Zhao Yin nodded, agreeing with it.

After talking for a while, Zhao Yin whispered, "Yu'er fell asleep."

Zhao Wangshu carried little Yunyu into the inner room, put him on the couch, and covered him with a thin towel.

"Sister, it's okay, I'll be leaving." Zhao Yin waited for her to come out and whispered.

"Brother, please stay and have dinner before coming back." Zhao Wangshu said.

"No, I promised Xiao Youyou that I would buy her snacks." Zhao Yin said with a smile.

"Okay, then I won't keep you here, big brother. Goodbye, big brother." Zhao Wangshu saw him out.

In the afternoon, the Liao Palace sent a reply, which was written by the Liao Princess herself, "Tomorrow at 9:00 pm, I will be waiting for Madam Yun Shao to come to the palace."

After receiving the reply, Zhao Wangshu felt more at ease.

The next day, after Zhao Wangshu arranged for his son, he went to the Liao Palace with his maid and gifts.

When they arrived at the Liao Palace, the maid led her through the long corridor to the garden where the Liao Princess was.

Princess Liao had been waiting in the pavilion for a long time. When she saw Zhao Wangshu coming, she greeted him with a smile, "Wangshu, you came at the right time. The tea has just been brewed."

"Sorry to bother you, Princess." Zhao Wangshu bowed and sat down on the stone bench opposite her.
