Zhao Ying smiled and said, "So you came here for the life-saving golden elixir. Then you are late."

Shangguan Chaolu was stunned.

"I have already given it to my daughter Yue'er to eat."

Zhao Ying raised her hand and touched the top of Shangguan Qingyue's head.

Shangguan Chaolu frowned and asked, "Why did you give it to Yue'er? She was obviously fine..."

"I can give my medicine to whoever I want. Do I need to report to you? Shangguan Chaolu, is this the attitude you should have when talking to me?" Zhao Ying said coldly.

Shangguan Chaolu stared at Zhao Ying intently. She didn't expect that Zhao Ying actually gave the life-saving golden elixir to the mute... She wanted to force Zhao Ying in front of Shangguan Shu.

If she gave it to save face, then she would have won a great victory. Even if she didn't give it, she would have let Big Brother see what a vicious woman Zhao Ying was...

As a result... Shangguan Chaolu refused to give up, "Sister-in-law, that's not what I meant. Don't be angry. I just think it's so coincidental that Ziyin got into trouble and needed this medicine, but Yue'er was unharmed. Sister-in-law really favors Yue'er..."

"I was just trying to save the situation. On the Queen Mother's birthday, Zihua kept saying that my son Yue'er couldn't talk, so I decided to see how effective this medicine was and whether it could cure the mouth disease. The result was..."

It would have been fine if Zhao Ying hadn't said that, but after he said that, Shangguan Chaolu was angry.

Although Zhao Ying might have found an excuse to lie to her, it was still a pity for Shangguan Chaolu.

It turns out that you have just taken this medicine not long ago.

If it weren't for the Queen Mother's birthday incident, maybe she would have succeeded today...

Shangguan Chaolu had nothing to say. She subconsciously looked at Shangguan Shu, but Shangguan Shu had a cold face and said nothing.

Shangguan Chaolu was delighted. After all, her elder brother was still angry. She had said that Zhao Ying was not as important as Huai'an in her elder brother's heart...

Before Shangguan Chaolu could finish her thought, Shangguan Shu threw down his pen and scolded her coldly, "You are becoming more and more outrageous. Who gave you the courage to question your sister-in-law? Your sister-in-law gave the medicine to someone and she even informed you? Do I have to report everything I do to you tomorrow?!"

Shangguan Shu was very scary when he got angry. He was used to being in a high position, and even though he was unemployed at the moment, his power was not diminished at all.

Shangguan Chaolu suddenly wilted, her legs went weak and she almost fell to her knees. What did she rely on but her mother's family? She was just a grass on the wall, she would please whoever her eldest brother supported.

I just didn’t expect that…

"Brother, that's not what I meant."

She quickly looked at Zhao Ying with pleading eyes.

"Don't be angry with me, sister-in-law. It was an unintentional mistake..."

Zhao Ying is a soft-hearted person. As long as she begs her, she will definitely make things better.

Unexpectedly, after Zhao Ying enjoyed the happiness of letting himself go last time and privately reflected deeply on his own tolerance and magnanimity, he did not receive sincerity in return, but instead received further demands from a group of ungrateful people.

She won't do that anymore.

"You all made unintentional mistakes, but I am the bad guy?"

"Chaolu, I have always pitied you, but I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful. You make me so sad!"

"Since you are thinking about Huai'an, then go find her. If anything happens in the future, don't come to me again!"

After Zhao Ying finished speaking, Shangguan Chaolu was completely dumbfounded.

Zhao Ying doesn't care about her anymore?

Her husband recently had a chance to be promoted, and she was thinking of asking Zhao Ying for help. After all, Zhao Ying was the easiest to talk to, and she wouldn't let her lose face. Now...

Shangguan Chaolu panicked and immediately wanted to find Zhao Ying to apologize. However, Shangguan Shu was a man without stance. Seeing that Zhao Ying was really angry, he immediately called Yu Xi and drove her out. He also said that he was now unemployed and had no power, so he could not do anything for her and asked her not to come to him again!

Look, is this what your brother said?

Second brother is right, eldest brother must be crazy!

Who was she making things difficult for Zhao Ying for? Wasn't it for his son?

Not only did he ignore her, he also kicked her out...

Who is afraid of whom? Does she think that she can't accomplish anything without them?

It’s true that Zhao Ying is a princess, but isn’t Huai’an a princess?

Sister Huai'an is kind-hearted and will definitely help her!

We’ll see!

After Shangguan Chaolu was driven out, Shangguan Shu helped Zhao Ying sit down and pinched her shoulders attentively, "Ying'er, don't be angry with her. It's not worth getting hurt. Besides, this matter has nothing to do with me. I swear I didn't know about it beforehand!"

The most important thing is not to implicate him. He wants to stroll around Qianyuan tonight!

As if to reassure Zhao Ying, Shangguan Shu walked up to her, squatted down, looked at her solemnly, and assured her, "Ying'er, I want to explain to you about those two children."

He observed Zhao Ying's expression and found that she showed no signs of anger, so he dared to continue speaking.

"That day, I led my troops to conquer the Xiongnu, and then found Huai'an. I had no other thoughts at the time, only thinking... I had promised her that I would rescue her."

"On the way back, the soldiers had won a victory, so they drank a few more glasses. I also got drunk and passed out. I had completely forgotten what happened that night. When I woke up the next morning..."

Shangguan Shu's face turned pale. He held Zhao Ying's shoulders tightly, as if he was afraid that she would walk away. He didn't dare to look into her eyes, for he was afraid of seeing her disgusted look.

"Huai'an lay beside me... Ying'er, I really didn't mean it. I haven't even had a concubine in these years. Why would I deliberately give birth to a child from another woman to upset you..."

He was emotionally unclear, but his body had never thought of betraying Zhao Ying...

Shangguan Shu frowned.

He actually had doubts. It was impossible that he would not feel anything after doing that kind of thing, nor would there be any traces left. But he… was unwilling to believe that Huai An was that kind of despicable and shameless woman. He did not believe that he had come a long way to save her from the sea of ​​suffering, but she was obsessed with harming him…

So he admitted it.

What difference does it make whether you recognize it or not?

He loved Huai'an, and he would definitely love her children. He wanted to do the same, but people's hearts don't follow reason. How could he betray Huai'an's feelings at this moment? How could he do anything for Zhao Ying?

But he did this...

A crazy thought even flashed through his mind: if Zhao Ying wanted to kill him, he would definitely let her kill him...

He didn't know what was wrong with him. He only knew that he wanted to stay with Zhao Ying, even if she didn't look at him straight in the eye and spoke coldly to him.

Shangguan Shu felt sad. He knew he had no way to defend himself. Zhao Ying would not tolerate any injustice and would not forgive his betrayal...
