Happy Spring Every Year

Before this, Shen Jiasui always believed that the Shen family's case of treason was planned by someone behind the scenes, with Lu Yunzheng as the executioner, and Gu Xizhi may have been involved, but not much.

But when she saw this letter, whose handwriting was 70% similar to Hengdi's, Shen Jiasui couldn't help but suspect that perhaps Gu Xizhi's involvement was much more than she imagined.

Jiang Xun said that the evidence is conclusive.

What could be more convincing than a “personal letter” from dad?

But can a few letters alone prove the crime of treason?

Not enough, there must be something else...

Shen Jiasui was lost in thought.

She even began to wonder, after Lu Yunzheng was reborn, he broke off the engagement so desperately, in addition to his love for Gu Xizhi and hatred for her, was it because... Gu Xizhi was also one of the keys to his success?

"elder sister?"

Shen Jiasui suddenly came back to her senses as she was called softly, and saw Shen Jiaheng waving the letter in his hand at her with a worried look on his face.

Shen Jiasui quickly adjusted her mind and gathered her thoughts. She asked in a gentle voice, "Brother Heng, I want to ask you first, what do you think of Miss Lu..."

Shen Jiaheng immediately shook his head, and said with a rare serious expression, "Sister, it's too early for me to talk about marriage. I have never thought about these things."

"If I hadn't seen this letter today, I would have forgotten everything about last year's Mid-Autumn Festival."

After Shen Jiasui got the answer, he understood what was going on and nodded, "It's okay. Everyone has their own worries when they are young. Although Miss Lu is a bit naive, she is a person of sense after all."

"Brother Heng, just keep your ignorance of this matter, and don't mention it in front of others, so as not to hurt Miss Lu's reputation."

Shen Jiaheng immediately agreed upon hearing this, and then asked, "I think the plan in Aunt Zhou's letter is very appropriate, but she asked for your opinion at the end of the letter. What do you think?"

Shen Jiasui curled his lips, took the letter, his eyes and eyebrows shining.

"Because Aunt Zhou knows full well that there is a better way, but she has to trouble you and me, so she didn't mention it and waited for me to tell her myself."

"Brother Heng, Concubine Zhou is truly a wonderful person. Madam Lu has touched her weak spot this time. Since Concubine Zhou wants to kill her with one strike, it is to our benefit, so of course we have to help pass on a knife."

"Come, Yan Mo, let's write a letter back to Aunt Zhou."

Shen Jiasui smiled meaningfully. He sat down at his desk and wrote several letters in a row. He also asked Shen Jiaheng to write one as well.

.......

By the time everything was ready, it was already late at night and both sides were locked.

Therefore, these letters were not delivered to Aunt Zhou until early the next morning.

After Aunt Zhou took the letter, she took Lu Yunyao to the room to open them one by one, and she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Seeing that Lu Yunyao was still confused, Aunt Zhou began to explain in detail, and then said earnestly:

"Yao'er, this is a truly smart person. Auntie doesn't even need to say anything more, she has already taken care of everything."

"Such a wonderful person, but Lu Yunzheng actually pushed her away and chose Gu Xizhi, who is full of secret schemes. Ha."

Aunt Zhou laughed sarcastically, but immediately straightened her expression.

"After all, no one should be underestimated. Gu Xizhi can come up with all these twists and turns, which shows that she is also a scheming person. Otherwise, why would I have come to Miss Shen yesterday to beg for help?"

"Never mind. It's not a bad thing to owe Miss Shen a favor. Yao'er, learn more and learn it from the heart."

She used to live a hard life and only found peace after meeting the general.

So she always thought that Yao'er was a girl, and as long as she lived a stable life, it would be fine. In the future, she would find a simple family for her, without all the intrigue.

But now she found that she was still wrong.

Fortunately, it’s not too late.

Now that everything is ready, I will just sit back and wait for my lady to die!

----

Mrs. Lu counted the days on her fingers.

Seeing that General Lu's complexion had finally improved a lot in the past two days, he put some silver in his pocket after dinner and went to Lu Yunzheng's villa.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yunzheng got off work late today and had not returned home yet. Only Gu Xizhi was at home, and he had hired two maids to serve him.

Seeing Mrs. Lu coming, Gu Xizhi hurriedly stood up to greet her with a smile on her face, as if there had never been any grudge between them before.

Mrs. Lu still looked down on Gu Xizhi from the bottom of her heart, but because of their last conversation at the Jokhang Temple, she tolerated it, but she couldn't help but find fault with her:

"After all, he knows how to make a living. He even hired two maids to serve him. No wonder Zheng'er's salary is not enough."

"Come and take a look. Is he of clean origin? Zheng'er can't have anyone with a questionable record around him."

Mrs. Lu said this in a sarcastic tone, and Gu Xizhi's smile froze, but she quickly adjusted her mood and nodded to the maid.

Upon hearing this, the two maids came forward in an orderly manner. Madam Lu only took one look at them and couldn't help but frown.

"Where did these two maids come from?"

After all, she was the mistress of the general's mansion. How could she not see that these two maids were not ignorant of the rules, but knew them too well. They looked like they came from wealthy families.

Gu Xizhi looked at Madam Lu's expression and obviously realized this. Her heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly explained:

"I bought them from a matchmaker. They're quite clever. I only taught them for a few days, and they learned all the rules very quickly."

Mrs. Lu still had a look of doubt on her face, when Lu Yunzheng's voice came from the door.

"mother!"

Mrs. Lu turned around and saw Lu Yunzheng walking quickly from outside. Her heart instantly fell on her son, and she forgot about the maid.

Seeing this, Gu Xizhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and winked at the two maids calmly.

They were all sent by that man to serve her.

She thought Mrs. Lu was stupid, so she let down her guard and forgot to ask them to pretend.

The two maids got the hint and quickly retreated. At this time, Gu Xizhi came forward with a smile and listened to Mrs. Lu persuading Lu Yunzheng to return home and admit his mistake.

"Zheng'er, your father was impeached by the censor a few days ago because of your breaking off the engagement. He made harsh remarks when he returned home that day."

"If you don't go back and admit your mistake this time, I'm afraid your father will really hand this General's Mansion over to Zhou Fu's son."

"Impeach?"

Lu Yunzheng suddenly raised his voice, startling both Mrs. Lu and Gu Xizhi.

Madam Lu calmed herself down and nodded repeatedly. She couldn't help but criticize inwardly, "Those imperial censors ignore the important affairs of the world and focus on the things going on in other people's inner courtyards. It's simply unreasonable."

Lu Yunzheng's expression changed several times, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

This is not an impeachment by the censor at all, it is clearly Jiang Xun who is responsible!

That day outside the Anyang Marquis's mansion, I thought he was just talking, but I didn't expect that he would actually make a scene in front of the emperor.

This despicable villain!

"Zheng'er, listen to your mother. Tomorrow, when you finish your shift, come home and apologize to your father."

"Don't worry, mother has arranged a good show. Those three people from Ningxiang Courtyard will be in big trouble tomorrow. By then, your father will understand. This general's mansion still depends on you."

"By then, you only need to say a few soft words, and you and your son will reconcile, and you can move back to the general's mansion."

Having said this, Madam Lu glanced at Gu Xizhi beside her. Thinking that this strategy was her credit, she slowed down her tone and said calmly:

"As for Miss Gu, you can take her back if you want. Mother won't stop you. There are so many courtyards in the mansion, so just give one to her."

When Lu Yunzheng heard this, he turned his head to look at Gu Xizhi.

In fact, he also wanted to go home.

It was impossible and unwilling for him to stay in the command department forever.

In the previous life, although the war with the Mo Kingdom did not break out until two years later, the Mo Kingdom will make some small moves when the ice and snow in the north melt next year.

Before that, he had to win his father's favor again and ask his father to put his name up...

When Gu Xizhi saw that Lu Yunzheng had no intention of fighting for her status in front of Madam Lu at this time, she felt a chill in her heart and was completely disappointed.

When Lu Yunzheng took her away from General Dingguo's Mansion, he spoke so nicely...

Gu Xizhi twitched the corner of her mouth, hiding the sarcasm in it, and said in a gentle voice:

"Yun Zheng, listen to your wife. Your future is the most important thing."

When Lu Yunzheng heard Gu Xizhi say the same thing, he nodded immediately.

"Mother, I will listen to you."

Mrs. Lu was overjoyed when she heard this. This was almost the most comfortable moment she had experienced in recent days.

She was filled with impatience, wishing tomorrow would come sooner so that she could trample Ningxiang Courtyard under her feet and watch the main beam of the General's Mansion return to Zheng'er's hands.

Zhou Fu, even if you are smart all your life, this fall will make you fall headfirst and bleed, and you will never be able to get back up!
