Priceless: A widow with a baby asks the prince to marry again

When Chu Shiyu walked into the yard, even though he was in a trance, he instantly understood what had happened, and his pent-up anger immediately found an outlet!

"Chop off his hand that has touched the gold!"

Everyone was stunned!

"Swish!" Only Jia Yi drew his sword without hesitation and went towards the scumbag father!

The situation on the scene changed instantly!

Liu Ronggui, who was originally trying to stop the scumbag father, immediately turned his hoe around and protected the scumbag father behind him! Zhao Chunfang's broom changed the target to be driven away!

Even the villagers around, after looking around and seeing that there were only three people, hesitated to move forward!

"Wait a minute!" Sun Zhizhao reacted and shouted, "Your Majesty! This is Madam Liu's biological father!"

There were dozens of people around him, but Jiayi showed no fear. As the chief of the Heavenly Stems, he alone was enough to massacre the entire mountain village! But Jiayi knew that Mr. Sun's attitude could sometimes influence his master's decision, so he stood there with a knife in his hand, looking back at his master's expression.

Chu Shiyu learned his lesson and dared not to act on his own anymore. He frowned and argued, "So what if it's my biological father? You are disrespectful to the elderly, Rusi already despises you!"

"No matter how immoral or disgusting he is, he is still Madam Liu's biological father!"

Sun Zhizhao was anxious, and he thought of the reason. Fatherly love, filial piety, brotherly friendship and respect for younger brothers are universal virtues, but they are not the case in the royal family. Prince Duan, as a leader, is even more so! In fact, after the rebellion, many followers suggested that Prince Duan should kill his father and seize the throne! Prince Duan did not take action, just because he was not in a hurry to take over the power!

"The grievances between the common people cannot be turned into war! Madam Liu can ignore her father! You can also be rude to him, but you must not mutilate his limbs! And you must not harm his life! If you are tyrannical, Madam Liu will never be grateful to you! She will even hate you!"

After a moment's hesitation, Chu Shiyu was skeptical, but he didn't want to take the risk of making their bad relationship worse...

"A-I'm back."

The ferocious warriors put away their weapons, and the farmers relaxed a lot.

"Why are you back again? Where's Xiao Cui?!" Zhao Chunfang looked around the yard but did not see her niece.

"I..." Chu Shiyu had never felt such shame before.

Sun Zhizhao stepped forward, bowed, and apologized, "Madam Liu ran away on the road. We... want to know if Madam Liu has returned safely."

"Escape?! What did you do?" Liu Ronggui's face was full of worry.

Zhao Chunfang even yelled at Chu Shiyu: "You pervert! Xiao Cui saved your life two years ago! How could you do such a robbing!"

"I do want to marry her! I just felt that I couldn't help myself at the moment... I thought it would be better to marry her sooner..." Chu Shiyu's voice became weaker and weaker as he argued.

"How can you marry like this?! You just come and kidnap the person! This is bride kidnapping..." Zhao Chunfang said as she swung the broom to knock down the gold that the scumbag's father had touched!

Liu Ronggui frowned and said seriously: "The money and property you sent before was written down as a thank you gift for saving my life! It can't be considered a betrothal gift!"

"No! These are just gifts of gratitude! When we arrive in the capital, I will naturally complete the three books and six ceremonies, and then marry you in a formal ceremony!" Chu Shiyu immediately defended.

Zhao Chunfang kicked all the gold into the main room, and finally looked Chu Shiyu in the eye, questioning: "Marrying her legally? Not taking her as a concubine?"

"I'm marrying her as my principal wife! Not as a concubine! And certainly not as a concubine!" Seeing that his intentions were misunderstood, Chu Shiyu hurriedly explained in a serious tone.

Even Sun Zhizhao was shocked and said anxiously, "Your Majesty! This is inappropriate!"

"How can you marry like this? Whether it's marrying a wife or a concubine, or a widow marrying a second time, it all has to be approved by the husband's family." The onlookers relaxed and joined in the chat.

"Her husband is dead, so where does her husband's family come from?" Chu Shiyu frowned in annoyance.

"Xiao Cui already has a son! She didn't need Qin Hao's consent?" Zhao Chunfang grinned in disdain and said contemptuously, "He looks so well-dressed and tall, but he doesn't know anything!"

Chu Shiyu was a little embarrassed. No one had ever said that he was ignorant, but he knew that this woman was like a mother to Liu Rusi, so he didn't dare to retort for a moment.

"Stop talking about this! Where did Xiao Cui go? Why didn't you find her?" Liu Ronggui was still more worried about his niece's current safety.

"She took a knife and cut her neck until it bled...and didn't let me follow her..." Chu Shiyu felt even more guilty.

"Injured? What happened to you?!" Zhao Chunfang was immediately furious and pushed Chu Shiyu anxiously!

He was not pushed, but lowered his head and let the woman vent her anger, and gently waved his hand to stop Jia Yi's action of protecting his master.

"Where did you run to? I'll go find you now!" Liu Ronggui picked up the hoe and ran out eagerly.

Hearing this, Rui Feng's eyes suddenly brightened! She didn't want him to follow, but if her uncle went to find her, she shouldn't reject it!

"On a mountain! I... let Sun Zhizhao take you there!" Chu Shiyu didn't dare to gamble for a moment. Would she overreact when she saw him again? But Sun Zhizhao acted in moderation, so she shouldn't be too disgusted...

Sun Zhizhao immediately accepted the order, and Liu Ronggui followed him and was about to go out.

"By the way, bring Xiao Cui's healing tool with you, and I'll go help look for her!" a villager suggested.

Someone took the lead, and other villagers responded, offering to help look for it.

Zhao Chunfang went into the house and took out the medical box. Seeing that his scumbag father was trying to pick up gold again, he kicked him in the ass and said angrily, "You value money over your life. Follow Ronggui and find it together! I'll give you one tomorrow, okay?!"

"The situation on the mountain is unclear, so send more young and strong people! Those who go to look for it will be given ten taels each!" Chu Shiyu immediately decided to take advantage of his money.

Immediately, all the villagers were busy looking for someone!

"Ten taels is too much! There are so many people!" Zhao Chunfang knew that there were hundreds of young and strong people in the village!

"If you can find it quickly, I'll come out."

Zhao Chunfang was relieved and snorted angrily, "It should have been you who went out!"

The hill where Liu Rusi ran away was not too far away, but it still took an hour or two to get there. Chu Shiyu wanted all the villagers to ride horses there, and the other guards camped and waited on the official road. There were enough horses, but no one knew how to ride.

Fortunately, the group of mountain people were used to going up and down the mountains, and they had good endurance and physical strength. After quickly traveling, they were still able to go up the mountain with torches to search.

Chu Shiyu didn't dare to go over, for fear that she would see him on the way back and try to escape again... But if he waited at her house, it would be better if she saw him, right?

I shouldn't have taken her away like this. If I had lived with her in Dongshan Village for some time and the relationship had eased, would she not have reacted so violently?

Can we make up for it by doing this now?

He sat in the yard all night without sleeping, watching the dawn, listening to the guards on the road receiving reports from the villagers every half hour...

"My Lord, I didn't find it."

"Keep looking."

The sun rose and set, but still couldn't find it.

Chu Shiyu became more and more anxious. Why couldn't he find it? The mountain was obviously not very big...

But the villagers were very active. They searched for a whole day and night. Even though they were exhausted, they ate dry food and slept on the side of the mountain. They did not return to the village...so they probably really didn't find it.

"Tell them to look for her in the nearby mountains. She might have...hidden somewhere else."

The reporting guard went out to convey the message. Jia Yi took a nap nearby with a knife in his arms. The courtyard was quiet.

Chu Shiyu finally couldn't hold back his emotions anymore. He used his big hands to cover the regret in his eyes, and there was even a hint of moisture in his eyes... How could this happen?

He didn't want to just sit and wait! He wanted to find her right away! But he knew that the person she least wanted to see was him...

Another sunrise.

There were hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, different from those of the guards!

Chu Shiyu immediately woke up from his trance and walked quickly to the door!

"Mom! Are you home? Aunt said you were lost! But..." The little boy's anxious shouting stopped abruptly when he saw a figure in the yard.

Chu Shiyu's eyes were complicated. Qin Hao had grown up a lot compared to two years ago. He was obviously seven years old, but his height was like that of a ten-year-old. Compared to his previous childish appearance, his facial features were now more clearly defined, and he could vaguely see the shadow of Liu Rusi.

"Are you Jade?" The little boy's bright eyes turned rapidly, as if he immediately understood the cause and effect: "You scared my mother away?!"

The child immediately rushed forward angrily and hit him with his fists!

"I didn't mean it." Chu Shiyu clenched his little fist. No matter whether he was seven or ten years old, he was just a child.

Jia Yi on the side just opened his eyes and took a look, then continued to rest. It was obvious that force was not necessary to deal with Madam Liu's son.

"Who cares whether you did it on purpose or not? You just scared your mother! It's all your fault!" Little Qin Hao refused to give in and hit him in the stomach with his other little fist when he was not prepared!

It didn't hurt, but Chu Shiyu felt impatient. He hadn't slept for two days and was already irritable... He clenched his other little fist and said seriously, "It's my fault. When I find her back, I will apologize."

"Let go! I'll find it myself!" Qin Hao's face was full of anxiety. He pulled his own hands and his body was already heading towards the gate!

Even if she didn't even believe her uncle, she wouldn't ignore her own son. Thinking of this, Chu Shiyu let go.

Under inertia, the child staggered for several steps before he managed to keep steady and didn't fall. However, Qin Hao must have felt embarrassed, so he put aside the idea of ​​running out and shouted angrily: "Get out! All of you get out! This is my home! You are not welcome!"

Chu Shiyu suppressed his unhappiness and argued softly: "Let's wait for the villagers to find Rusi first. I promised each of them ten taels. When she comes back, I will apologize to her."

"My family has enough money. You can take the gold back if you want. I will make money to pay you back!" Little Qin Hao angrily found a broom from the corner of the yard, waved it at him and shouted, "You don't have to apologize! Mother definitely doesn't want to see you!"

The broom's bamboo whiskers scraped against Chu Shiyu's body, but it didn't hurt at all, but it made him even more irritable! But even if he was losing his mind, he knew that he must not hurt her son, otherwise he would really fight to the death...

"Are you going to leave or not? What if my mother comes back and is scared by you again!" Little Qin Hao waved the broom more vigorously to drive them away!

"Okay! I'm leaving!"

Chu Shiyu took a deep breath and went out. First, he was indeed worried that Liu Rusi would act too aggressively when she came back and saw him. Second, if he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would kill this kid!

Seeing the two people going out, Qin Hao quickly closed the gate and said with caution and contempt: "Don't sneak in again! Anyone who enters without invitation is a thief!"

Veins popped up on his forehead, and Chu Shiyu clenched his fist tightly...

Little Qin Hao turned around and ran to his uncle and aunt's house at the village head, but he refused to give in and left a sentence: "Don't stand in front of my house! You'd better not come to Dongshan Village! You annoying guy..."

Chu Shiyu was filled with anger, but he could do nothing...

There's no way to compete with a child, especially when you can't hit him.

Chu Shiyu simply moved to Jinyan City with Jiayi. That was fine. After she returned and calmed down at home for a few days, he would go to her house to apologize.

However, after three days of sleepless nights in Jinyan City, she still did not go back.

"Your Highness, the villagers said that they have searched all the nearby mountains... Some people said... they don't want to look for it anymore."

"How can I not find her? She must be seen alive..." Chu Shiyu swallowed the rest of the words. No! She will not die!

Is it possible that she found him, but she negotiated with her uncle and son and said she didn’t want to see him, so she didn’t report it?

"Where are Qin Hao and his uncle?"

"Still looking for it on the mountain... The child fell and broke his leg, but he still insisted on going up the mountain."

She wouldn't have just seen her son get hurt and not come back... He couldn't suppress the feeling of loss any longer! He had to find her! He had to find her no matter what!

"Let the 50,000 soldiers go up the mountain! Start from that mountain first, and then search the surrounding mountains one by one!"

Chu Shiyu stood up. Even though seeing him might make her overreact, he couldn't sit still any longer! At most, after confirming that there was no problem, he would leave for a while...

"Let the villagers who want to leave go! As for the rest, especially my uncle and Qin Hao, have the soldiers protect them!"

The search speed of a hundred villagers and fifty thousand soldiers is naturally very different.

There was a man every ten feet, searching piece by piece! The young and strong men held knives and axes, chopping away the grass, trees and thorns that blocked the road, and they shouted from time to time!

Countless creatures and beasts within a ten-mile radius were disturbed. Small animals that could fly and crawl fled to the trees, timid deer and sheep jumped around, and there were also a few violent large animals, but in front of the armored and armed humans, they could only flee after being angry!

Chu Shiyu searched by the stream. People tend to be near water sources. This was his experience in suppressing the Burmese army in the past...

She is not an enemy, but now he can only treat her as an enemy...

"My lord..."

The messenger stepped forward hesitantly.

The tone of a messenger can sometimes represent a lot...

Chu Shiyu turned around stiffly, forced out an ugly smile, and asked expectantly: "Did you find it?"

"In a cave... there was a black bear, which had been killed..."

The messenger's scalp tingled and he slowly picked up the bloody clothes in his hand.

The world was spinning, and for a moment, I felt like I couldn't feel anything...

"Your Majesty!"

The guards and messengers on both sides rushed forward to support him!

The blood color on his body faded away, and everything was silent. Only the voice in his mind kept shouting, he was wrong! Really wrong!

But why?! Just one mistake would cost her her life!

And he realized that she was so important to him, a hundred times more important than he expected! A thousand times!

If possible, he would trade everything he had for her! Wealth, power, the throne! The past twenty years were not as good as the half day he spent with her again...
