Being favored by the paranoid master, the whole imperial capital kneels down

Zhou Mingzhu stood in front of Lord Chu, her beautiful face showing no sign of hiding her impatience.

"What is Brother Chu's current status? What is my status? There is no point in talking about this anymore."

Lord Chu raised his head and looked at Zhou Mingzhu, but he couldn't find any words for a long time.

Zhou Mingzhu said with disgust,

"Brother Chu, I know why you came here today."

"But my husband has just returned to the imperial capital, and my Su family officials have not yet been reinstated, so I can't help you with anything."

"If you want money, I remember Jingyue gave you some money before, and this money is my repayment to you."

She acted as if all was settled and turned around to go back to Zhou's house.

"Zhou Mingzhu!"

Lord Chu, who had come to his senses, finally roared. He stood at the bottom of the stairs, pointing at Zhou Mingzhu and trembling all over.

"How could you treat me like this?"

"I've given you gold, silver, and valuables over the years, and you're just going to get rid of me with just a stack of banknotes?"

"Besides, that stack of banknotes was given to me by Jingyue."

For so many years, Chu Jingyue has been well-fed and well-fed by the Chu family.

Not only did she not give anything back to the Chu family, she also took away all the savings of Zhou and Marquis Chu.

After Zhou Yinyin's death, Chu Jingyue went to see Lord Chu in order to have some support.

She gave Lord Chu a stack of banknotes.

But those were all small-denomination silver notes.

Compared to what Chu Jingyue took away from the Chu family, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Not worth mentioning.

What made Lord Chu feel even more ridiculous and shameless was that Zhou Mingzhu actually wanted to use such a small amount of money to offset the kindness Lord Chu had shown her?!

"Zhou Mingzhu, you are so calculating."

Lord Chu looked at Zhou Mingzhu with sadness and disappointment.

"Your sister is right. You didn't change after going to the exile area. You have always been this kind of woman."

All the beautiful emotions, those unrequited loves hidden deep within Lord Chu.

It collapsed into pieces at this moment.

Lord Chu had to face a reality.

Zhou is right.

Zhou Mingzhu was completely different from the simple, beautiful and absolutely infatuated woman he had imagined.

Just for such a woman, the few love words she said in the letter, and the description of her own deplorable situation.

Lord Chu threw Nan Chuzheng away.

At this moment, Lord Chu wanted to laugh at his own stupidity.

Zhou Mingzhu turned around, and the bright smile on her face had turned into a cold knife.

"You still have the nerve to talk about that bitch?"

"If that bitch hadn't plotted against me, she would have been the one exiled instead of me."

She walked down the stairs step by step and took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve.

It was thrown on Lord Chu like giving alms to a beggar.

"You just want money, right? I'll give it to you."

"But you have to promise me that you will never let my sister, that bitch, have a good life."

Lord Chu, who was already extremely sad, did not even look at the banknotes on the ground.

"You've always hated your sister, so what you said to me, and asking me to raise Chu Jingyue, were all done to get revenge on your sister?"

"That's right!"

At this point, Zhou Mingzhu has nothing to hide.

"I just want to let that bitch sister of mine know that retribution will always come."

"She changed my marriage. She became the wife of a marquis, while I could only accompany a minor official into exile in the frontier."

"How can there be such a good thing in this world?"

There was a ferocious look on Zhou Mingzhu's pretty face.

She looks exactly like Chu Jingyue.

"I have to thank you very much. If it weren't for your help, my sister's daughter wouldn't have been thrown away so easily."

"So what if my sister becomes the Marquis's wife? It's just that I temporarily lose for a few decades."

"Now her daughter is in a brothel, being slept with by thousands of men, while my daughter is second only to the emperor in the Eastern Palace."

As Zhou Mingzhu spoke, a look of madness appeared on her face.

Looking at the pale face of Lord Chu, Zhou Mingzhu couldn't help laughing.

Lord Chu shook his head, "But the one you are plotting against is also my daughter."

"I have loved you deeply for so many years. I have never done anything to let you down."

The grievances between the two sisters, Zhou and Zhou Mingzhu, began when they were still young.

Mrs. Zhou resented that Zhou Mingzhu was the favorite of the whole family.

So on the day of Zhou Mingzhu's wedding, Zhou designed a plan to make Zhou Mingzhu unconscious, and replaced Zhou Mingzhu and married into the Chu family.

Zhou Mingzhu had reason to hate Zhou.

She blamed Zhou for all the suffering she endured in exile, thinking that without Zhou she wouldn't have to come to such a bitter and cold place.

So Zhou Mingzhu designed a plan to have her daughter replace Zhou's daughter.

Now that Zhou Mingzhu is back, she is the ultimate winner in life.

As for Lord Chu, from beginning to end, he was just a pawn in her revenge against Zhou.

"I never took you seriously at all. I never liked you from the beginning."

"So what if you're deeply in love with me? You still slept with my sister."

Every word Zhou Mingzhu spoke was like a sharp knife stabbing into Lord Chu's heart.

With tears in his eyes and his back bent, he picked up the banknotes that had fallen on the ground one by one.

If it weren't for Zhou Mingzhu, Nan Chuzheng wouldn't be lost.

He would not have raised Chu Jingyue, nor would he have let that ungrateful Chu Jingyue take away all the Chu family's savings.

Lord Chu thought all this was ridiculous.

The woman he truly loved turned out to be using him from beginning to end.

Seeing the miserable state of Lord Chu, Zhou Mingzhu couldn't help but let out a clicking sound.

"Now I'm actually a little glad that my sister picked you up."

"Now, my Su family is about to become the new elite in this imperial capital. My husband's achievements are enough to make him a marquis and a prime minister."

The Marquis actually doesn't have any great talents.

Back then, Zhou Mingzhu was only willing to deal with Marquis Chu because she was attracted by his family background.

In comparison, Su Shizhi is more talented and ambitious.

Zhou Mingzhu knew this back then.

So when Zhou Mingzhu found out that Zhou had replaced her and entered the Marquis' Mansion.

Zhou Mingzhu just went with the flow and married Su Shizhi.

She knew that with Su Shizhi's talent, sooner or later, he would climb to a height that was beyond the reach of others.

It’s just that Zhou Mingzhu calculated the early part but not the later part.

She didn't expect that Su Shizhi would be implicated in the party struggle and the entire Su family would be exiled to a cold and bitter borderland.

Fortunately, hard work pays off, and Su Shizhi brought the Su family back.

In the end, Zhou Mingzhu is the ultimate winner in life.

As for the now declining Chu family, Zhou Mingzhu had long looked down upon it.

Looking at Zhou Mingzhu's smug expression, Lord Chu's lips moved.

He originally wanted to tell Zhou Mingzhu that Nan Chuzheng now had the support of a thousand-year-old family.

But he held back.

He gritted his teeth, a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"Really? Is your daughter Chu Jingyue really living a better life than my daughter Nan Chuzheng?"

"Are you so sure?"
