Chapter 877 Cousin Xiangbobo escapes control (3)

No matter how many excuses Zhou Yizhu had to coax Du Shichu to live in the Zhou family, Du Shichu could use the emperor as a reason to reject his proposal, which made Zhou Yizhu aggrieved and annoyed, but he couldn't object yet, so he was in a hurry. He didn't forget that before he came, his mother reminded him that no matter what, the cousin of the princess must be firmly controlled by the Zhou family, so that she can bring benefits to the Zhou family, but now he has made so much effort It was of no avail, which made him very frustrated.

What made him even more frustrating was that he couldn't find any chance to meet Du Shichu alone after that, until he entered the capital. Du Shichu was always surrounded by the emperor's people. There is no way.

In the end, Du Shichu went back to the Princess's Mansion and settled down. He thanked Zhou Yizhu, and said that it was not easy for him to stay during the hot filial piety, so he politely sent him away.

Zhou Yizhu was so upset that he failed to coax Du Shichu to Zhou's house, so he had to go home dejectedly.

"Brother Zhu, where's your cousin? Why don't you see her?" Zhou Yizhu's mother, Du Shichu's aunt Liu, got the news early and was waiting in the living room, taking it for granted that Du Shichu would follow Zhou Yizhu Back at Zhou's house, she didn't expect that she searched behind her son for a long time, but couldn't find the princess, so she asked anxiously.

"Mother, my cousin didn't come back with me, she just went back to the princess' mansion." Zhou Yizhu rubbed his nose and said awkwardly.

"What? Didn't I remind you a long time ago that you must coax your cousin to live in our house? Why can't you even handle such a small matter?" Liu's eyebrows were raised when she heard this, and she pretended to be kind before His expression suddenly became harsh.

"Mom, it's not that I didn't coax her, it's just that she refused to come, saying that it's not good to live in other people's homes during the filial piety period, and it will hinder others. I said we don't mind, but she just doesn't want to, so I have What way? And I didn't have a few chances to talk to her alone along the way, I tried my best, and I can't blame me if I didn't succeed..." Zhou Yizhu quickly explained.

"Do you know how important she is to our family? Your father is only a fourth-rank official! There are as many fourth-rank officials in the capital. If there are no special circumstances, he will only be a fourth-rank official all his life! And you, You can't even pass the Jinshi exam now. If you don't have the opportunity, what will you do in the future? You are not even as good as your father..." Liu Shi hated iron, "Your cousin is the opportunity I found for our Zhou family. Her father is Your Majesty. Your Majesty will definitely pay attention to her, as long as she lives in our house, will the future of your father, you and your younger brothers and sisters still be worrying? But you can't even fool a little girl, it really disappoints me downright!"

What Liu's words said made Zhou Yizhu's face flushed, his head lowered and he said nothing. Of course he knew how important Du Shichu was to their family, but didn't it mean that he failed to coax people here?

"Fortunately, she won't leave after she lives in the capital. We still have a chance. Tomorrow, I will be my aunt, and I will visit her in person and get closer to her. She must have lost her mother at a young age." Little girl, I still long to be loved by my mother, and I will treat her like my own daughter..." Liu said with her eyes narrowed, with a sharp gleam in her eyes.

She has been jealous of Liu Jingshu since she was a child, because Liu Jingshu is the eldest daughter of the head branch of the Liu family and has been doted on since she was a child, while she is just a girl from the side branch, and her parents still favor boys over girls. I will see this pampered cousin during festivals, and I will be jealous every time I see her.

Later, Liu Jingshu was favored by King Qi, who was still the eldest son at the time, and it was love at first sight, so she proposed to marry her as a princess. A poor student is a wife, and she has worked so hard to be her husband's virtuous housemate, but her husband still takes concubines, so she has to fight against concubines and concubines.

Fortunately, fortunately, Liu Jingshu died early, and King Qi also died early, leaving only an orphan girl who was only 12 years old. Then she, Liu Jingwen, can finally feel proud, and she can unceremoniously treat Liu Jingshu's daughter as her own. Stepping stones!

Liu Jingshu, if you want to blame, you can only blame your husband and wife for dying too early, and your daughter is valued by the emperor, so I can't blame me for using her...

Liu Shi thought of how she would coax Liu Jingshu's precious daughter to obey her in the future, and she couldn't restrain a feeling of incomparable joy in her heart.

Liu Jingshu, it seems that I am the one who laughs last, so what if you are lucky?Isn't the only daughter who stayed behind only to be my stepping stone? !

She seemed to have seen herself trampling Du Shichu under her feet.

Du Shichu didn't know that Aunt Cheap Tang had already made clear arrangements for her future. Even if she knew, if she didn't cooperate, what could she do?

The princess mansion had been cleaned and arranged by the servants sent by the emperor early on, so when she arrived in the mansion, she only felt that everything was in order, as if the princess mansion had always been lived in. From this, it can be seen that the emperor treats her well. Still very important.

After a night's rest, Du Shichu regained his energy. The emperor felt sorry for her exhaustion from the long journey yesterday, so he didn't let her enter the palace, but today she had to enter the palace no matter what.

Of course, she is not worried about what will happen to her when she enters the palace. After all, anyone with a brain will not trouble her. After all, she is just an orphan, even if the emperor values ​​it, it will not harm her Other people's interests, on the contrary, if you make friends with her, you can get benefits.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Majesty's Majesty." Du Shichu saluted the emperor. The emperor hurriedly exempted him from the ceremony, and asked someone to move a chair for her to sit down. Then he asked her about it with a concerned face Happening.

"Chu'er, don't be nervous. Just treat this palace as your own home. Your father is my savior. Before he left, he asked me to take care of you. Naturally, I will live up to his last wish. Chu'er, how about You can move into the palace. I don’t worry if you live alone outside the palace. When you live in the palace, the queen mother and empress will take care of you. I have a few daughters under my knees who can also accompany you. You are here You can live in the palace with peace of mind..." The emperor was very amiable, and it could be seen that he sincerely hoped that Du Shichu would live in the palace so that he could take care of her more.

However, Du Shichu did not agree, but took a step back and said, "Your Majesty, I am very grateful for your concern for me, but I was used to being free and loose when I was in the palace, and I may not be able to adapt to the life in the palace. And now I am During the hot filial piety period, it would be bad if you offend the nobles in the palace. Of course, if your majesty is really worried, then I can live in the palace for a few months a year, or a few days a month. Your majesty thinks How about it?"
