Chapter 490 Layout
Zhao Wangshu watched Song Yuanqu, left some tonics, and was about to go home. Zhao Yin hurriedly said, "Sister, I'll take you there."

"You don't have to see me off. Just take good care of my sister-in-law." Zhao Wangshu said as he walked out.

At this time, Zhao Yin heard the maid outside greeting Yun Hao, and smiled, "Brother-in-law is here to pick you up."

Zhao Wangshu opened the curtain and went out, "Yun Hao."

Yun Hao saw her and smiled gently, "Madam, I'm here to take you home." Then he saw Zhao Yin following him out, "Brother."

"Brother-in-law." Zhao Yin smiled and nodded.

"I heard that something happened to my sister-in-law. Is she okay now?" Yun Hao asked politely.

"The child is gone, but fortunately, she is fine." Although Zhao Yin regretted losing his child, he felt even more distressed for his wife who had suffered such a sudden misfortune.

Zhao Wangshu was worried that Yun Hao didn't know the situation and might say something wrong, so he quickly interrupted and said, "Brother, it's getting late. I'll take him to see grandma, and we should go back soon."

After that, she took Yun Hao away and told him on the way, "Sister-in-law is injured and can't have any more children in the future."

"My eldest brother already has a son and a daughter, so it doesn't matter if my eldest sister-in-law can't have children." Yun Hao didn't think that Song Yuanqu's inability to have children was a big problem.

Zhao Wangshu glanced at him, "Don't you think having many children is a blessing?"

"I am so blessed to have you by my side." Yun Hao looked at her, a gentle arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were full of affection and cherishment for Zhao Wangshu, "For me, having you by my side in this life is the greatest blessing. Yu'er, you are the treasure you gave me."

"Me too." Zhao Wangshu smiled sweetly.

It was getting late, so the two men met Zhao Cui and the others and left.

On the way, Zhao Wangshu told Yun Hao the person who caused Song Yuanqu to fall, "Yun Hao, the Zhao family and the Liu family are enemies. Do you still want to support Concubine Liu's son to take the throne?"

Yun Hao asked in surprise, "When did I say I would support Concubine Liu's son to ascend to the throne?"

"Your Majesty only has two sons. If you don't support Prince Zuo, then there is only the Eleventh Prince left to support. Even if there is a Twelfth Prince, he is still Concubine Liu's son."

Yun Hao gently squeezed Zhao Wangshu's hand and said, "Did you have anything interesting to do at the banquet today?"

Zhao Wangshu understood and started talking about what happened at the flower-viewing banquet.

After returning home and having a simple dinner, Yun Hao leaned close to Zhao Wangshu's ear and whispered a few words carefully.

Zhao Wangshu was stunned when he heard this. "Your Majesty, don't you know?"

"Your Majesty had sex after drinking. If it weren't recorded in the history book, no one would know about it." Yun Hao said in a low voice.

Zhao Wangshu's mouth twitched slightly, "Since Tongshi has written it down, why didn't you report it to His Majesty?"

"Noble Concubine Jing kept it secret." Yun Hao said.

"Why?" Zhao Wangshu was puzzled.

"A young prince who lost his mother and has no one to rely on is easier to control than an adult prince. Concubine Jing wants to be a powerful empress dowager, not a empress dowager who lives in Yangkang Palace and spends her remaining years doing nothing." Yun Hao said.

"She is really thoughtful." Zhao Wangshu said with emotion.

"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind." Yun Hao smiled meaningfully.

"Be careful, Huang Que." Zhao Wangshu held his hand.

"I will." Yun Hao knew the danger of this matter and never relaxed. The couple chatted for a while and then went to bed to rest.

After a good night's sleep, when Zhao Wangshu woke up the next day, Yun Hao had already left. She rubbed her sore waist and called the maid to come in and help her wash and dress.

After breakfast, Zhao Wangshu was helping his son learn to read when Yao Shanzhi came running over.

"Godmother." Xiao Yunyu called her sweetly when he saw her.

"Hey, dear boy." Yao Shanzhi responded with a smile and sat down on the chair. "The Liu family really goes too far."

Zhao Wangshu frowned slightly, "Liu family? Is it Concubine Liu's family?"

"It's her family, after being poor for a long time, they suddenly become rich and forget themselves. When villains succeed, they become rampant." Yao Shanzhi said angrily.

Zhao Wangshu signaled the nurse to take little Yunyu out, "What did the Liu family do?"

"I was eating at a roadside stall when that damned guy from the Liu family rode his horse across the street and overturned the stall. If I hadn't dodged quickly, I would have been injured like several other people. Not only did he not know he was wrong, he also spoke nonsense, saying things like 'How can a commoner's life stand in the way of the king's uncle?' I was so pissed off." Yao Shanzhi picked up the teacup and poured it into her mouth.

"Be careful, it's hot." Zhao Wangshu quickly stopped her.

"Bring me a bowl of ice water." Yao Shanzhi put the teacup down heavily, and the water splashed out, scalding her.

"Why drink ice water in March? Drink this cup." Zhao Wangshu handed her the tea she hadn't finished.

Yao Shanzhi took the cup and took two gulps. "The Liu family is so arrogant. I asked the Discipline Army to arrest them, but they didn't dare to do it."

"Of course we don't dare. With Concubine Liu in the palace backing them up, who would dare to touch the Liu family?" Zhao Wangshu said sarcastically.

"I will never allow the Liu family to act so arrogantly and ignore the law. I will go to the palace and file a complaint with my uncle the emperor." Yao Shanzhi slammed the table and stood up.

"Zhizi, wait a minute, listen to me." Zhao Wangshu quickly pulled her aside, "Yesterday Liu Wu rode his horse and frightened my sister-in-law's carriage, causing it to flip over."

"Is Yuanqu okay?" Yao Shanzhi asked.

"My sister-in-law was almost six months pregnant. She was so scared that she had a miscarriage, and it almost resulted in two deaths." Zhao Wangshu said heavily.

"Damn Liu family, they are totally lawless!" Yao Shanzhi was furious, and the teacup in her hand was almost crushed by her. "No, I must go to the palace immediately."

Zhao Wangshu held her back again and repeated to Yao Shanzhi what he had said to Princess Rui Chengzhang, "The first thing we need to do is to collect evidence. It's useless to just kill Liu Wu. We need to suppress the Liu family and Concubine Liu as well. Otherwise, we will be dead but still alive."

Hearing her say this, Yao Shanzhi calmed down, "You are right, this matter must have a comprehensive plan. We can't bring down the Liu family here, and then the eleventh prince succeeds there, and then we can be pardoned, and it will be good enough that our efforts were in vain."

Although Zhao Wangshu knew that the eleventh prince would most likely not succeed, it was not the time to speak out. "We must unite all those who have been oppressed by the Liu family and work together to get this done."

"I'll arrange some people to investigate right away." Yao Shanzhi said as he stood up and was about to leave. "I'll investigate everything the Liu family has done."

"It's not too late to leave after lunch." Zhao Wangshu grabbed her and said.

"What's delicious?" Yao Shanzhi asked.

Zhao Wangshu smiled and said, "I had a dish at Prince Zuo's mansion last time. It tasted good. I asked the cook to make it for you to try."

"Okay." Yao Shanzhi sat down again.

Zhao Wangshu asked the nurse to bring little Yunyu in, "You stay here and play with your godson. I'm going to check the account books."

"Go ahead, go ahead. Don't disturb us mother and son playing." Yao Shanzhi stretched out his hand to drive her away.
