Transformed into a furry person, I am doing public relations in the Northern Song Dynasty

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chengyan not only did not let go, but instead used a little force to force the Prince of Runan to retreat half a step.

"My Lord, do you dare to say this in front of the emperor?"

Zhao Chengyan's voice was low and cold, and his eyes were like icy spikes piercing the other's face. He wished he could peel off the flesh of the Prince of Runan to see what was going on in his mind and what he was hiding.

The Prince of Runan broke out in a cold sweat and his face twitched slightly.

Does he dare?

How dare he!

Yes, Zhao Chengyan is no longer his son. He is the official’s son and the eldest prince of the housekeeper.

He had not expected the birth of this child from the beginning, but later he gave the child away and got what he wanted. How could filial piety be used to suppress him now?

It’s all because of that stupid guy Lu, who dug up those old stories in a moment of anger.

Why should he make such a humiliating scene just for Twelve Lang? Even without Twelve Lang, he still has eleven sons!

Besides, not only Zhao Chengyan must not know about this, but the government must not know about it either.

Otherwise, his reign as the Prince of Runan would be over.

"Say!"

Zhao Chengyan shouted in a harsh voice, forcing the Prince of Runan to speak.

He let go of Mrs. Lu, who had been strangled to unconsciousness by him, and spoke in a cowardly manner.

"What can you tell me? Do you believe the words of a mad man?"

"Even if you are the son of an official, you cannot bully Shi Er Lang like this. After all, he is still your brother. When family members make mistakes, you always cover up for him, but you are so ungrateful."

Now that you've opened your mouth, it's easier to say it no matter how guilty you feel.

The Prince of Runan secretly scolded Zhao Chengyan, but he felt more confident. He used all his strength to shake off Zhao Chengyan's hand and turned to look at his daughter-in-law.

"Twelve Daughter-in-law, I know that Twelve Lang did something wrong, but ask yourself, how have you been able to be Twelve Lang's wife all these years? If you were softer and more considerate, Twelve Lang would never have made such a mistake."

"Look at what you have taught Mr. Qi to be like. He can neither take care of his children nor serve Mr. Twelve. It just so happens that your brother is here. My Ru'nan County Prince's Mansion cannot tolerate people like you!"

The Prince of Runan is really shameless. He even lies with his eyes open for the sake of his own face. It seems that not only Twelve Brother is morally corrupt, but the Prince of Runan is no less so.

How could Zhong Gu tolerate hearing someone talking about his sister like that? He immediately stepped forward to argue with the Prince of Runan.

Anyway, I have already beaten Shierlang, so it doesn't matter if I beat one more. When the time comes, the government will want to punish him, even if it means taking his head!

Zhong Gu can think like this, which shows that he has nothing to fear.

At present, the government is facing internal and external troubles and is still counting on the Zhong family army to guard the border.

It would be a relief for him to kill one of his own, but how would his army feel about this?

Our own young general lost his life after a trip to Bian Jing. Then who among the young generals and soldiers under him would be willing to work for the court?

It is true that the Prince of Runan is the emperor's younger brother, but no matter how noble he is, he is just a royal relative without real power and has no influence on the court. So they beat him, but they didn't kill him.

His temper isn't that bad.

Zhong Gu naturally had something to rely on when he acted, but Mrs. Zhong was much calmer and more careful than her brother. She had been looking forward to this day for a long time, so how could she ruin her brother's future and lose the favor of the Zhong family just for a dispute of personal feelings?

She quickly took a few steps forward, and gently placed her slender fingers on her brother's wrist. With just a glance, she made Zhong Gu obedient and he dared not act rashly.

She did not say anything wrong about her brother, but turned to look at the Prince of Runan, her voice neither hurried nor slow.

"Father, whoever hears what you said will feel guilty. You are idle all day, either raising birds or fishing, and you don't care about the affairs of the inner house. I don't know who raised Mr. Qi."

"You think he is naughty because of Shi Er Lang and you. This child is not my own, so it cannot be blamed on me. When I was a new bride, I encountered this trouble with Qi Langjun. Do you still remember how you promised in front of my father and brothers?"

Mrs. Zhong paused and took out a thin piece of paper.

"It doesn't matter if you can't remember. I'll read it to you."

"Shi Er Lang was young and inexperienced, and was deceived by someone with ulterior motives. Now a disaster has occurred. I am also at fault for not teaching him. I will keep a close eye on Shi Er Lang in the future. If this happens again, I will allow Madam Zhong Wu to divorce Shi Er Lang. No questions asked."

Mrs. Zhong shook the papers in her hand and showed such a happy smile for the first time in the palace.

"Look carefully, this is the handprint you wrote and pressed with your own hands. You don't have to say that my elder brother and brother Yan are too cruel. Even if you really take it to the government, we are still right."

"In that case, my Lord and Madam, please keep your family in good order. I will ask people to carry the dowry in a moment. I will leave with a clean record, and I am not asking you to drive me away."

After saying that, Zhong Wu walked out of the gate of the Prince of Runan's Mansion with his personal maid, and did not forget to bring his two younger brothers with him, and went straight to the ancestral home of the Zhong family.

All the way, Zhong Gu stayed beside his sister happily, even sitting close to her in such a big carriage.

He thought that if the government had not arranged the marriage for him, fearing that the Zhong family army would be rebellious and insist on leaving one of them in Bian Jing, his sister would not have married that fool Shierlang.

He hadn't seen his sister for several years. Due to the long distance and the frequent military schedules, they would only communicate during the Chinese New Year and other festivals. He would often send letters before the New Year, and he would not receive the next letter until March of the following year.

Even if the elder sister complains in her heart, they, as her younger brothers, can only be anxious and cannot share her worries at all.

After that, my sister no longer expressed her unhappiness in her heart. She just lived a dull life and there was nothing to be unhappy about.

But it depends on this family, how many good things can they have?

You can imagine how my sister's life is.

"No one in that family is a good person. I will personally bring people to move my sister's things later. Anything that can't be moved will be destroyed. It won't be a bargain for them at all!"

As soon as Zhong Gu finished saying this, he was lightly hit by Zhong Wu.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Come on, be quiet!"

As he spoke, Zhong Wu glanced at Zhao Chengyan opposite him. When Zhong Gu noticed his sister's gaze, he immediately realized that he had affected his good brother, and hurriedly tried to make up for it.

"Shi Er Lang is a bad bamboo that produces bad shoots, but our Ah Yan is the best."

Zhao Chengyan forced a smile, his mind still spinning on Mrs. Lu's words.

Mrs. Lu was strangled to death, but seeing how nervous the prince was, she thought that even if she woke up, she would definitely not say another word.

This was not the first time he had heard the term "unlucky star". The last time he heard it was in court, when Liu Chenggong used it to accuse Yun Qing.
