Chapter 393 Proud Son-in-Law

Lord Rong laughed, and hooked Rong Zhao's nose, "It's alright, alright, my precious daughter, don't cry anymore, if you cry again, my Ronghou Mansion will be flooded with your tears."

Rong Zhao sniffed, only a few teardrops were left on his face.She chuckled and hugged Lord Rong, "Father, why do you still treat me like a child? I remember when I was seven years old, I was tired and cried because I learned archery. You said the same thing."

Recalling that when I was a child, I always had endless words, "I was so stupid at that time, I believed it was true, and I didn't dare to cry anymore, for fear that our house would be flooded."

"Are you afraid that our house will be flooded? You are afraid that your beautiful clothes will be destroyed." Lord Rong exposed her mercilessly. Rong Zhao loved beauty since he was a child, and couldn't wear too many clothes.She also cherishes it terribly, remembering that there is a piece of clothing that she likes very much, she is not willing to wear it if she likes it, and hangs it on the hanger all day long, saying that she is happy just looking at it, and she doesn't even need to eat.

Rong Zhao giggled, "Dad bought it for me with his hard-earned money, so of course I should cherish it."

"You have a sweet mouth." Master Rong pursed his lips and smiled.

Rong Zhao looked at him, holding back the tears in his eyes, time passed so fast, and the handsome father in her memory also showed signs of time, and there were a few deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

She suddenly realized that her father was getting older day by day, and the time between her and him was slowly shortening.

One day, he will leave her and she will never see him again.

Today's weather is bad, cloudy, and it's raining now.The father and daughter are sitting in the gazebo, the daughter is leaning on the father's shoulder, talking and laughing, looking at each other from time to time, it is such a beautiful picture.

To go up to the gazebo, you have to pass a winding step. On both sides of the step are rows of flowers, which are gorgeous and fragrant.The flowers bloomed all the way and spread to Rongzhao's feet.

Rong Zhao bent down and picked two small flowers, thinking about putting them on for Xiao Rongnian.She liked to pick flowers in the garden when she was a child, and she put them on her head after she picked them, showing off to others beautifully.

"When you were young, you all liked picking flowers. Every time I go home, seeing the three of you among the flowers is like seeing three little fairies." Marquis Rong looked at the flowers and said suddenly.

Rong Zhao couldn't help exerting force on the hand holding the flower branch, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Right now, the flowers are still those flowers, and they bloom and fall every day, but now you are the only one left by my side." Rong Zhao stared at Ronghou Ye, his eyes flickering brightly, "Xi'er did something wrong, I wanted to save her life, but maybe good and evil will be rewarded, but I still didn't save her."

Rong Zhao called him softly, "Father-"

Lord Rong shook his head, "I don't want to, I don't want to, people are dead, I don't want to." He looked at the dark clouds in the sky for a long time, "Tell me, where did Wan'er go? Why didn't she go home? Aunt Qin When I died, I was still thinking about her, and I was dying to say her name. I didn’t close my eyes, and waited for her. But, I didn’t wait. Tell me, where can she go? "

Rong Zhao felt pain in his heart, turned his head away, not daring to face him at this moment.

Rong Zhao's voice choked slightly, "Maybe she also lost her memory and couldn't find her way home. Maybe she already has her own home and is very happy."

She can only comfort Lord Rong in this way.

Lord Rong sighed, "That's good too, living is better than anything else."

A tear fell from the corner of her eye, and Rong Zhao quickly wiped it away, she did not feel sorry for them, even if their deaths were all caused by her hands, they just deserved it.

The only thing she was sorry for was her father.

The rain gradually stopped, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and a rainbow appeared in the sky.

There was a joyful smile on Rong Zhao's face, that rainbow seemed to pour into her heart, dispelling all her gloom.

"Father, let's go back."

Lord Rong smiled at her and nodded.

Rong Zhao thought, Dad probably doesn't know about it at all, but some facts are too cruel, he doesn't want to know.

Rong Zhao didn't expect that Xiao Jinyu would reward something, but the reward was not for her, but for Xiao Rongsheng and Xiao Rongnian.

Naturally, he is partial, obviously, he prefers Xiao Rongnian.

Surrounded by so many rewards, Xiao Rongnian didn't know which one to take, only regretted that his hands were too small and too few.

"Oh, I'm so likable, I'm gone, and I still miss me." She was so proud that her chin almost went up to the sky.

However, she has always been a generous person and would not eat alone, so she took a white jade hairpin and gave it to her aunt's sister, and pursed her lips after giving it to her.I took another string of pearl necklaces and gave them to my aunt's elder sister. Tears were about to come out after I gave them.

Her heart is bleeding.

Rong Zhao praised her, "Lian Rong is so good."

Xiao Rongnian gritted his teeth, and thought to himself: Is it okay to give someone your heart and soul?
Xiao Rongsheng scoffed, thinking that he could be bribed with something?He is the prince of Chu, what good things haven't he seen?That is to say, Xiao Rongnian, who has never seen the world, regards these things as treasures, so what's so strange.

Thinking of this, he took out a small gem-studded dagger from the gift, with exotic patterns on it.He secretly put it in the shoe box, and this is the only thing that can be seen.

Then he put the gift away, "I don't like these things, so you can share them." That's generous.

There were more than a dozen or twenty children from Ronghou Mansion and Duke Huguo Mansion, and they swarmed for them, and none of them were left for him in the end.

Now he was in a hurry, he just gave way casually, nothing happened.

"Wow—" Just as he was about to cry to find his mother, Rong Zhao put his finger on his mouth and whispered, "Boys can't cry."

Xiao Rongsheng held back, leaned on Rong Zhao's lap, and whispered to her mother, "Those are all gifts from me."

Rong Zhao shrugged, "A man means what he says. Since he sent it out, there is no reason to return it."

Xiao Rongsheng couldn't express his suffering, frowned, and lay on Rong Zhao's body, feeling sad inwardly.

Rong Zhao touched his head, and couldn't help feeling that these two little things really followed her, and they were so stingy.

The Ronghou Mansion is really lively today, and the Duke Huguo Mansion was specially invited to come.Rong Zhao did not let her father imprison her in the palace for a few days to make public, they were the only ones who knew about it.Just come back.

It's better not to publicize this kind of thing. If people talk too much, if it spreads, the words will change.

How to put it, she stayed in the palace for so many days as a woman, some people always think about that.

But Xiao Jinyu's reward came to make people puzzled.

Duke Hu's eyes turned bright, and he looked at Lord Rong, "Zhao Zhao is back, does the emperor know?"

Lord Rong paused, and said, "Didn't Rong Yao hand in his resignation letter? He said he slipped his tongue."

Duke Protector was still puzzled, "The Emperor is quite caring."

Lord Rong said: "Yes."

Duke Protector saw that his expression was not right, there must be something hiding from him, he raised his head and went out, Lord Rong followed him closely, and the two went to the study.

Lord Rong and Duke Hu told what happened. Duke Hu turned red with anger and shook his hands, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Lord Rong said: "This is not something glorious, forget it, don't be so angry, Zhao Zhao and the child have returned safely."

The Lord Protector paced back and forth, he couldn't be more angry, "My niece has suffered such a great grievance. When the late emperor was around, he spoiled her so much that he was in the palm of his hand. This, this Xiao Jinyu, dared to imprison my niece , it really doesn’t make sense.”

Duke Huguo was originally a steady person, but when he came to his niece, he couldn't be steady.

He and Rong Zhao's mother are twins, her mother is not here, so he regards Rong Zhao as his own daughter.

Lord Rong hurriedly looked outside and closed the doors and windows tightly, "You dare to say the emperor's name. Well, calm down." Poured him a cup of tea, he thought about it, but smiled.

Duke Protector glared at him, "Your daughter has been wronged, you can still laugh."

Lord Rong said: "I'm glad that Zhaozhao didn't choose the wrong husband. The emperor is like most men in the world, it's the best if he doesn't get it. If Zhaozhao is really with him, then that's the right time. Pitiful."

Duke Hu shook his head, quite proud of it, "He is not good enough for my niece." He added: "However, King Chu is not bad."

His eyes lit up, "Tell me, how about the king of Chu being the emperor?"

Lord Rong felt that Duke Protector was getting more and more courageous, and he snapped, "How dare you say something now. I think it's pretty good now. You didn't go to Yizhou, it's really a good place, no Second to our Changge City."

Duke Hu pouted, and said with a smile, "Aren't you very proud of having such a son-in-law?"

"Who is not proud of such a son-in-law? Mounting a horse can bring peace to the world, and dismounting can rule a party." Rong Hou raised his eyebrows, and his face was full of pride.

The Duke Protector's smile faded, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Lord Rong said: "What are you thinking about?"

Duke Hu leaned forward and lowered his voice, "Our Gu family and your Rong family are one."

Lord Rong nodded, this is true, even outsiders know that Ronghou's Mansion and Duke Huguo's Mansion are one family.

"But the so-called big tree attracts the wind. As far as I know, the emperor is starting to clean up the Liu family, and it is very likely that the Gao family will be next. Then down there, it may be our Gu family or your Rong family. We have to guard against it."

How could Lord Rong not know this truth, especially in the matter of Rong Yao's marriage with the Yingjun Palace, he could see that the emperor was not happy.

He also hesitated, but seeing that the young couple really had feelings for each other, he couldn't bear to break up.

Duke Hu took a sip of tea slowly, "Even my mother's mother's family has to be cleaned up, let alone us, sooner or later. I'm afraid that if he becomes ruthless, our two houses will suffer."

Lord Rong looked at him, knowing that he hadn't finished speaking, "So I thought, should we transfer our family there first, at least if something happens, they will still have a layer of protection."
