Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 456 Chu Zhang Was Promoted Again
"Shut up!" There was a trace of anger in Emperor Xiao's eyes, "Are you saying that I'm so incompetent that I can't even tell who is an assassin? Or do you really think that you are capable enough to do what I want?"

"Father, forgive me!" Chu Xi's complexion changed, and she quickly kowtowed to plead guilty, "My daughter-in-law does not."

"Daughter-in-law?" Emperor Xiao sneered, he said directly to Xiao Yide, "My daughter-in-law is only Mrs. Xie, what are you!"

As soon as these words came out, the blood on Chu Xi's face suddenly disappeared.

Emperor Xiao completely removed Chu Xi from the list. Although she did not depose her as a side concubine, it was almost the same. You don't need to think about how Chu Xi will be ridiculed after tonight.

She thought she was clever and wanted to help Gu Shizi, but bit Chu Zhi back, but was reprimanded mercilessly by His Majesty. Who did she think she was? How could she have such a big face? His Majesty reprimanded.

In the end, this matter was left to Gu Changyan to investigate, but the fourth prince was reprimanded by Emperor Xiao because of Chu Xi.

Emperor Xiao is becoming more and more assertive now, and he hates people questioning his decision the most. Chu Xi's repeated rebuttals have already offended him.

At the end, Emperor Xiao said to Xiao Yide: "You don't need to enter the palace anymore as a side concubine."

Even with Shuqi supporting her, Chu Xi couldn't help but her legs and feet gave way, which completely blocked Chu Xi's way.

Xiao Yide also had a bad face, but the current situation does not allow him to refute at all.

Tonight, Chu Zhang escorted him in time and made a great contribution. Emperor Xiao rewarded him heavily. Dali Temple Minister Zhao Dechong also handed in his resignation. Emperor Xiao took advantage of the opportunity to promote Chu Zhang to Dali Temple Minister. Others dare not say anything.

Now Chu Zhang has become a third-rank official, and the Chu family has infinite scenery for a while.

On the day of the family banquet, Chu Zhi and Han Zhan also came back. During the banquet, Chu Zhi only saw Mrs. Lin, and Mrs. Lin looked worried and tired. She got up early and left the banquet before the meal was finished. Chu Lin was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing Chu Zhi looking around, Chu Nuan asked, "Fourth Sister, what are you looking for?"

Chu Zhi said, "Why don't you see Third Uncle?"

You must know that Chu Lin is a 24-year-old filial husband who obeys Lin's words and is almost inseparable. This is the first time Chu Zhi sees that Chu Lin is not by Lin's side.

Chu Nuan lowered her voice: "You know Third Aunt and Third Uncle had a fight."

"in argument?"

"That's right! The quarrel was so loud that the third aunt smashed the house in anger, and the third uncle also ran away from home and stayed outside. He didn't return home for a good time!"

"How could this be?" Chu Zhi was surprised, "Third Uncle has always doted on Third Aunt. Over the years, Third Aunt has been the only one who can control her temper. Third Uncle has always been coaxing. At Shichen, Third Uncle will also make Third Aunt happy, why are you arguing so hard this time? Do you know what it is for?"

"I don't know the details. The people in the third room have strict mouths, so they can't find out anything." Chu Nuan said, "But I heard that there seems to be a problem with the business of the third aunt's family. The third aunt is in a bad mood, so she told the third uncle. If it’s not good, the two of them became impatient, and I don’t know the details.”

Chu Zhi understood: "It seems that the two of them had a lot of trouble."

Otherwise, they wouldn't have stayed silent for so many days.

Chu Nuan whispered: "Grandma found out about this, and grandma was so happy that she even said it's best to ask third uncle to divorce third aunt!"

Mrs. Chu has always disliked Mrs. Lin. She felt that she was a daughter of a merchant and would not be able to enter the elegant hall. In addition, after she married into the Chu family, she had nothing to do for many years. She was born in Mrs. Lin's family. As she grew up, her temper became very violent. If the old lady was unreasonable, Mrs. Lin turned around and left. The angry old lady hated Lin's even more and called her unfilial.

Now hearing that Chu Lin and Mrs. Lin had quarreled so violently, the old lady took the opportunity to ask Chu Lin to give up Mrs. Lin.

It's just that Chu Lin has been resting outside and never returned to the house, so the old lady has nothing to say, she can only curse Lin every day. The whole Chu family knows about this, but it is the old lady after all, the word filial piety is too big Besides, the old lady is so confused now that she can't listen to any reason, even Chu Zhang has no choice but to let the old lady go.

"Why is grandma so confused?" Chu Zhi frowned.

Ever since she and her third aunt started selling rouge powder and ointment for beauty and skin care, the Lin family's business has been thriving. In the past two years, Chu Zhi has made a lot of money.

There are many dignitaries in the capital, and I don’t know how many officials were killed with a brick. These officials, wives, officials and ladies are mostly silver, but anything that can become beautiful with rouge and gouache, it is not worth the money. His hands were soft, so Chu Zhi also made a lot of money.

But at the same time, he also knew Lin's difficulties.

Because of the pampering of the family, the Lin family is not short of money. Although the Chu Mansion is the housekeeper of the eldest aunt, the Chen family, the Lin family also makes up for it on weekdays. It is just that many of the good things that the old lady uses in the house are all from the Lin family. Yes, even if the old lady hates Lin, what Lin should be filial is still filial piety. Although she would talk back to the old lady on weekdays and refuse to obey discipline, she is a very good person, but her mouth is powerful.

Even so, Chu Zhi still admired the third aunt, after all, the third aunt was too sincere.

Just like the good things she gave the old lady, the old lady didn't even know who sent them.

Even if she knew, the old lady would sneer: "She still has a little conscience and knows how to respect me as a mother."

That's why Chu Zhi said that the old lady was confused.

Chu Nuan sighed: "My aunt said..."

Chu Nuan hesitated, not knowing what to say.

"What's wrong?" Chu Zhi asked.

"My aunt said that the two of you had a lot of trouble this time, and I'm afraid it won't get better easily!" What Chu Nuan didn't say was that Aunt Huang also said that the third uncle was restless. Little, I'm afraid Third Aunt will be sad then.

Aunt Huang suspected that Chu Lin would take a concubine because of this quarrel and the old lady's words, and that's why she said this.

It's just that Chu Xi couldn't tell Chu Zhi these words, because in her heart she still didn't believe that Uncle San was such a person.

Although the third aunt has no children, and the third uncle does not have any serious official position, and he lives on the little shop given to him by the Chu family and the money in the hands of the third aunt, but he loves the third aunt. Good fortune, marrying a good husband, Chu Nuan still secretly envied Lin in her heart, married such a good husband, so when Aunt Huang said that, Chu Nuan refused to believe it.

But after the banquet, Chu Zhi took advantage of Han Zhan's conversation with Chu Yan and Zhao Yufeng to find Mrs. Lin.

Chu Zhi knew that the third aunt loved the third uncle very much, and now that the two of them were arguing so fiercely, the third aunt must feel uncomfortable, and since she had nothing to say, Chu Zhi was quite worried, so he took the opportunity to visit Mrs. Lin to comfort her. With a few words, Mrs. Lin must feel better.
