The daily life of a concubine's daughter

Chapter 402 Zhou Shao, You Will Regret Forever

Zhou Shao regretted giving him the chance to speak: "You two bastards! You two are really in love with each other. Don't worry, I will help you after I vent my anger!"

After saying that, he shook his ankles and kicked Zhou Xu hard again and again, his eyes bloodshot and looking like a madman.

"Bastards...bastards...adulterers and adulterers..."

Zhou Xu groaned and spat out a large mouthful of blood. His back was covered in blood, it was a horrible sight.

Shi Mingzhu took a breath and started screaming again: "Zhou Shao, don't hit Zhou Xu, I am willing to go back with you and let you humiliate me... Zhou Shao, Zhou Shao, you are going to beat him to death! He is your own brother... Let's not fight anymore, isn't it okay?"

When Shi Mingzhu heard him scolding the couple, she felt a pang of disgust in her heart.

She originally used this word to insult Shi Yao and Zhou Shao, so how did it end up insulting her and Zhou Xu?

It was obviously Zhou Shao and Shi Yao who ruined her, but Zhou Shao now stands on the moral high ground and scolds her with a clear conscience, scolding Zhou Xu who had been deeply in love with her in both past and present lives!

She hates it so much!

She hates it so much!

Why did Tang Zhan betray her? Why couldn't this life be as peaceful and stable as the second life?

She would rather die completely in the second life, and never awaken the memories of the second life, so that she would not have to suffer like she does now, watching herself and Zhou Xu fall into hell.

Zhou Shao was so angry, what the hell was the point of arguing!

The Shi family has fallen, the Tang family has seized the Northwestern Army, and the Imperial Guards belong to the prince. What is there for him to fight for?

This woman was trying to kill herself, and she wanted to drag him down with her before she died.

Moreover, Shi Mingzhu and Zhou Xu were having an affair. With so many people in the Imperial Guard, someone would definitely spread the news back to the capital. The commander of the Imperial Guard would also report it to the Crown Prince and his father, and he would become a complete joke!

Thinking of this, Zhou Shao was filled with anger and slapped Shi Mingzhu again.

This time the world is quiet.

He kicked Zhou Xu again, wishing he could kick this adulterer to death.

Tang Zhan and the commander of the imperial guards were afraid that someone might die, so they both stepped forward and grabbed him.

Zhou Shao wanted to give some face to his savior Tang Zhan, and he did not dare to accuse him of beating his brother to death, so he stopped kicking and hitting, straightened his sleeves, and said arrogantly:

"Take them back to the capital and wait for the emperor's decision!"

He passed by Shi Mingzhu without looking away, and heard her gritting her teeth and muttering: "Zhou Shao, you will regret it, you will definitely regret what you did today!"

At this moment, Shi Mingzhu hoped that Zhou Shao would remember his first and second lives earlier, so that he could discover, like in the second life, how much he loved her and how he had let her down, and beg for her forgiveness on her knees, regretting it for the rest of her life.

Zhou Shao thought, no, he would never regret it.

He only regretted that he had been blind and thought Shi Mingzhu was kind and innocent, but it turned out that she was stupid and bad!

Tang Zhan reminded: "When Prince Duan joined the army, he won over a group of followers. During the time when the Shi family detained Prince Duan, some of them were arrested and some escaped. Your Highness, be careful on the road."

Zhou Shao cherished his life very much. After being held hostage, he valued his life even more. After thanking Tang Zhan, he did not dare to stay here for too long and immediately returned to the capital:

"...Master Xiao Tang has saved me twice. I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future!"

Tang Zhan clasped his fists and said with a smile: "This is my duty, I dare not take credit for it."

Finally got rid of these troublemakers.

The only pity is that I can’t continue to enjoy the show.

He really wanted to know what would happen next.

There are so many melons in Beijing.

*

In Beijing, whether Shi Mingzhu is alive or dead still tops the list of popular topics among the people.

Shi Yao learned from Fu Nanjun that Shi Mingzhu and the Duke of Zhenguo had left a time bomb, which was to conceal the fact that the fifth prince had joined the army.

She had a bad feeling, so she sent a jar of wedding wine to Lord Xiao Tang in advance, secretly begging him to show mercy and let the other members of the Shi family go, as a way of repaying the favor she had shown him.

I don’t know if it’s useful or not.

She didn't want to be one of the nine clan members to be exterminated.

Therefore, she and Xie Jibai packed their bags and planned to return to Yu Su - even if they became part of the Nine Clans Exterminated, they could die later if they ran far away, right?

Of course, Ji Yun had to be brought along.

Wherever she goes, her mother goes.

The night before leaving, Shi Yao found Xie Qingdai.

Xie Qingdai started to grow her hair after breaking off the engagement. Her hair grew well and now reached her shoulders. As she couldn't comb it into a bun, she wore a nun's hat to cover it up when she went out.

Shi Yao came to see her. She had her hair loose and was reading a book. When she saw Shi Yao coming, she put the book on the tea table and said with a smile, "Why are you here, Yao Yao?"

Shi Yao knelt down opposite the tea table and glanced at the cover of the book "Adventures in the Sea Kingdom".

She has also read this book, which is a travel record of Daxing people going abroad, telling about the customs and habits of Western countries and the author's personal experiences.

"Second sister is interested in Western countries?"

Xie Qingdai smiled slightly and said, "It's a pity that I can't go and see it with my own eyes."

Shi Yao said, "If I have a chance, I would like to go and take a look. I came to see you because I have something to discuss with you."

"Oh? What's the matter? I don't take care of anything at home now, I'm surprised." Xie Qingdai sat upright and poured a cup of tea for Shi Yao.

Across the curling smoke, Shi Yao said solemnly, "To be honest, sister, my sisters-in-law from my mother's family all had prophetic dreams and predicted their past lives, so some broke off their engagements, some divorced, and some remained widows. Sister is a smart person, she must have seen the clues a long time ago."

Xie Qingdai: “…”

What does it mean to be a widow?

Could it be that Le Anning was responsible for Shi Mingwei's death?

Shi Yao did not explain.

If Le An Ning had not deliberately condoned it, how could Shi Mingkui and Shan Nai have joined forces to kill Shi Mingwei.

"Yaoyao is an open person, so I won't hide it. Indeed, I also had a prophetic dream. I didn't want to enter the dangerous place of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion again, so I pretended to be sick and broke off the engagement. Later, I felt that it was not safe, so I simply cut off my hair and became a monk."

Shi Yao smiled and said, "It's easy to talk to a straightforward person without beating around the bush. Sister, do you still remember that when the boss passed away in the previous life, the Northern Rong took the opportunity to invade Daxing?"

In the first life, the Shi family secretly killed Crown Prince Zhou Yi, and Zhou Shao successfully became the crown prince. There was no controversy when he ascended the throne. It happened that the Northern Rong invaded, and the Shi family led the army to fight and defeated the Northern Rong. Their prestige inside and outside the court was further enhanced, and they completely became a powerful official with power over half of the court.

Zhou Shao had mixed feelings. He was happy that he had secured the throne, but he was worried that the Shi family was eyeing him covetously. How could he sleep peacefully?

Therefore, the ceremony of conferring the empress was cancelled, and the group of civil officials was united, and despite the pressure, Shi Mingzhu was conferred the title of Imperial Noble Consort.

The excuse he made was particularly perfunctory. He said that the old emperor had left an oral instruction before his death that Shi Mingzhu was too beautiful and might be a disaster, so he did not allow Zhou Shao to make her the queen.

In this battle, Zhou Xu displayed his military talent, rose through the ranks, and established prestige in the army, laying the foundation for his subsequent usurpation of power.

Shi Yao guessed that after Zhou Xu was promoted, the Shi family had discovered his identity as a prince, but because Shi Mingzhu was demoted to imperial concubine, they concealed the truth and secretly colluded with Zhou Xu and flirted with him.

So much so that when the first generation of the Shi family was destroyed, Zhou Xu naturally took control of the entire Shi family army. With the surrender and assistance of Shi Mingwu, he led the Shi family army back to the capital and seized the throne.
