Marry the villain and the whole court kneels down and calls her the queen

The Sixth Prince Zhao Zhuoran got off the carriage, took the complaint personally, read it carefully, and took a deep breath.

"Your father has been dead for three years. Why are you filing a complaint now?"

Zhao Zhuoran knew that it was difficult for ordinary people to file a complaint, and he knew that it was even more difficult to sue the son of the current right prime minister.

Ordinary people would certainly not choose to file a complaint and would just swallow their anger.

However, now he suddenly started to complain again. Zhao Zhuoran looked at the complaint in front of him, thinking about something.

"Alright, I'll accept the complaint. Please go back now. I'll have someone serve you on the day of the trial."

After receiving Jiang Jiu's instructions, Shao Yingying did not continue to pester him and turned away.

Zhao Zhuoran took another look at the teahouse where the owner was, and he began to understand that Jiang Jiu was going to take action against the Zhou family.

Next, he was not in a hurry to try any case related to Jiang Jiu.

He has to wait for an opportunity.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, he heard what happened in Zhou's mansion.

When Madam Zhou was celebrating her birthday, Zhou Shi'an's two fierce dogs disrupted the party, which not only scared Madam Zhou, but also the Zhou family's legitimate daughter and former Crown Princess Zhou Min, and Madam Zhou. The two fierce dogs also bit Zhou Shi'an.

Although it was not a serious matter and no one was killed, it still made people uneasy.

You know, the night after tomorrow is New Year's Eve.

In previous years, the New Year’s Eve banquet would be celebrated by the ministers and their families into the palace to spend the night with the emperor, which would last until after midnight and after the fireworks were set off.

The ministers then returned home with their families, and when they next attended court it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

During the half-month holiday, the ministers do not have to attend court or go to the government office.

If there is an emergency, you can work from home.

It’s a good benefit once a year.

In previous years, Prime Minister Zhou would celebrate New Year's Eve with his wife and youngest son Zhou Shi'an, while his other two older sons had already started their own families.

Although she still lived in the mansion, she didn't have to go to the palace with him to celebrate the New Year's Eve.

The girls also got married and stayed with their husband's family to celebrate the New Year.

Only the youngest son, Zhou Shi'an, never married.

Now that Zhou Shian is injured, it is unknown whether he can make it to the New Year’s Eve dinner.

It’s not that he has to attend this New Year’s Eve, because this year at this banquet, Prime Minister Zhou wants to find a marriage for his youngest son.

The granddaughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo is already fourteen years old, and he has been waiting for her for a long time.

The previous generation of the Marquis of Zhenguo had no daughters, only sons. Zhou Xiang did have two daughters and a niece, but they both married the prince and the capable Chang Mingyuan.

He clung to the imperial power and dominated the civil officials in the court, but the military officials who made up half of the court were still not very friendly to Prime Minister Zhou.

If he could become a relative of the Marquis of Zhenguo, Zhou Xiang's power in the court would be completely unmatched, second only to the emperor, and he would directly undermine the imperial power.

In fact, when Zhou Xiang's father was alive, he was married to the Duke of Zhenguo. However, Zhou Hengzhi was not very ambitious. Although he is only a small Minister of Personnel now, it is considered a good job in the eyes of outsiders.

Qin Yuan had already thought of what Zhou Xiang was planning, so he suggested that Zhao Zhuoxi marry the granddaughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo.

But I didn't expect that today's banquet would be disrupted by two hounds.

Zhao Zhuoxi hurriedly left with Jiang Jiu and Nishang.

When leaving, Jiang Jiu passed by a pretty girl about fourteen or fifteen years old.

Nishang whispered in Jiang Jiu's ear: "This is the granddaughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo."

He is only fourteen, but he is like a big piece of fat meat, and many people are eyeing him.

what a pity.

Although Zhou Shi'an was injured, he still appeared at the banquet in the palace on New Year's Eve.

But today Zhou Shi'an dressed up specially. Maybe because he followed Prime Minister Zhou, he became much more honest and well-behaved.

Normally, Zhao Zhuoxi could have claimed to be sick and not attend a banquet like this one in the palace.

However, he did not claim to be sick this time because he wanted to see a good show.

A good show should be watched in succession to be more enjoyable.

Jiang Jiu followed Zhao Zhuoxi into the palace. Originally, she didn't have to come, but she came to the palace to look for something.

There was a long banquet in the palace. Zhao Zhuoxi was afraid of the cold, so he wore a black cloak.

As the emperor's younger brother, he sat at the emperor's lower right with the sixth prince Zhao Zhuoran.

He was lying there in a daze, with four beauties following him. The emperor frowned as soon as he saw him.

"Old Nine, this is the Imperial Palace. There must be some rules. This is not your Prince Qi's Mansion."

Zhao Zhuoxi leaned his head directly on Jiang Jiu's shoulder: "I feel chest tightness and cold. My royal brother, please start and finish early. If I don't sleep well, I will have a headache again."

The emperor couldn't do anything about him. He was in poor health and even after returning to Beijing, he visited relatives and friends everywhere.

Upon asking, it turned out that it was in response to Queen Zhou's request that she go around looking for ladies from aristocratic families to choose a wife.

But today, without a wife to choose from, he naturally didn't want to come.

Sure enough, not long after sitting there, Zhao Zhuoxi used the excuse of being cold to go to the warm room to rest.

The room was filled with laughter and songs.

But just as Zhao Zhuoxi stood up, he suddenly saw Zhou Shian screaming and standing up with a look of fear and frenzy on his face.

"I don't want water, I don't want water... take it away, take it away quickly..."

This time, Zhou Shian was a little far away from Jiang Jiu. Zhao Zhuoxi was about to leave, but when he saw there was something exciting to watch, he sat back down.

"What's wrong with him?"

Jiang Jiu frowned: "The rabies is about to break out."

Zhao Zhuoxi raised an eyebrow: "When rabies attacks, the first thing is fear of water, then biting, pain all over the body, fever... right?"

This is what Shao Yingying told Jiang Jiu. This situation occurred shortly after her sister was bitten by the hound.

Jiang Jiu nodded: "That hound deserves to be killed, and Zhou Shian deserves to die too. He deserves death more than enough."

Zhao Zhuoxi snorted disdainfully: "Prime Minister Zhou will be sad."

Jiang Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly: "From now on, be careful. Once bitten by him, rabies is contagious..."

Zhao Zhuoxi was startled and quickly gave orders to the guards behind him.

"Quick, catch him. Be careful, don't hurt him. He has rabies and will go crazy and bite people..."

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Zhuoxi finished speaking, the guards over there started arresting people.

Zhou Shi'an began to dodge and then barked like a dog.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

Rabies was not uncommon in ancient times, especially since Zhou Shi'an had two Tibetan mastiffs and no one knew how many people were around them, so he contracted rabies.

Now, it is finally Zhou Shian’s turn.

The guards had a hard time capturing people and dodging at the same time.

The emperor was also frightened. Looking at the ministers below in chaos, he waved his hand.

The commander of the guards picked up his bow and arrow.

Although Madam Zhou pleaded desperately, Empress Zhou also stopped them: "No, arrest him first, he, he...can't be killed..."

"If we don't kill them, this disease will be contagious. Do you want all my ministers to turn into dogs?" The emperor was furious.

Zhao Zhuoxi also said coldly: "Even if we don't kill him now, he won't live for many days..."

With a whoosh, the sharp arrow shot out and Zhou Shian fell in a pool of blood.

The hall was finally peaceful.

The emperor closed his eyes and said angrily, "Seeing blood on New Year's Eve is very unlucky. I'll go ask Master Huiyuan to calculate the impact on the country's fortune next year..."
