Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 816 It’s not that I can’t, I just don’t care
It was difficult for Zhuo Jiayu to speak, so he could only watch his mother crying in front of his bed.

It seemed that she was crying very sadly, but Zhuo Jiayu found that she was not as happy as she imagined.

She was already like this, but her parents came in without asking a question. One stared at He Jiuniang with eager eyes, while the other didn't care about anything and only cried.

It seemed that he only cared about her life and death, but didn't care about her feelings at all.

After a while, Yan finally finished crying, but she just took Zhuo Jiayu's hand and patted it, then turned around and went to quarrel with He Jiuniang, threatening to take her home no matter what.

Zhuo Jiayu's heart grew cold a little bit. Are they really here to care about her?
If when she was first imprisoned, her parents would come here every day to make trouble just to take her home, then she would have been very touched, but they didn't do that. Even if someone came to the Duke's Mansion, it would just be ordinary people. Little servant girl, her parents never showed up.

Maybe it was because she was embarrassed, her parents had always been people who cared about appearance.

Now that he has finally arrived, he doesn't care about her at all. He only cares about quarreling with He Jiuniang. Are they really...

No, she didn't dare to think about it or admit it.

Impossible, her parents love her, so they must be frightened and too anxious to ignore her feelings.

She comforted herself in her heart like this, but looking at her parents who had already quarreled with He Jiuniang not far away, she closed her eyes, and a line of clear tears fell down the corners of her eyes.

He Jiuniang also looked at the angry couple, with a playful smile on her face, and asked: "You two, Miss Zhuo hasn't even had a sip of water since she woke up, so you should pay more attention to her. As for letting her go, No way."

He Jiuniang left after saying that. As she walked, she said: "You can either visit her and leave by yourself, or you can stay with her here. It just so happens that your family of three can be reunited."

Her voice is getting farther and farther away, but it can still be heard clearly.

Only then did Yan realize that she really didn't seem to care much about her daughter just now. She hurriedly turned around to see Zhuo Jiayu, only to see her bursting into tears.

Mrs. Yan hurriedly stepped forward, took out her handkerchief, wiped her tears, and comforted her: "Don't cry, that little bitch hurt you like this, your parents will definitely avenge you. Mom and your father will go into the palace soon." Complain to the imperial court, this He Jiu Niang is really lawless!"

Later, he said many unpleasant things, all of them scolding He Jiuniang and the Lu family, but still did not care about Zhuo Jiayu.

Zhuo Jiayu listened quietly, not making a sound during this period.

Seeing her like this, Yan couldn't even speak, her face was extremely pale, and it was obvious that she only had one breath left.

This is his own daughter, and it would be a lie to say that he doesn't feel sorry for her. After all, he wanted her to marry a good family and help the Duke's family, but now it seems that there is no chance.

Yan turned around and glanced at Zhuo Wei, and the couple understood each other's thoughts instantly.

Zhuo Wei glanced at the guards guarding around him and said, "You all should stand down."

"No, the general's wife has ordered that we must guard here."

The jailer was very principled and would not leave even if he said anything.

Zhuo Wei was a little angry again, but in the end he still held back and said nothing.

Yan said to Zhuo Jiayu, "Xiaoyu, take good care of yourself. Even if your parents risk their lives, they will take you home!"

After that, he left with Zhuo Wei.Seeing that they never cared about her, even though He Jiuniang had reminded her, her parents still didn't notice this, Zhuo Jiayu couldn't help but break down and cry.

If they had risked their lives to take her home from the beginning, wouldn't all this have happened?

Now that something happened, he didn't say anything except that he wanted to take her back, and he didn't really care. So, why did he take her back?
He Jiuniang's words rang in her ears again, and she couldn't stop crying.

The jailers felt pitiful when they saw her like this. One of them stepped forward and asked, "Miss Zhuo, do you want some water?"

Just now, my sister-in-law said that she hadn't drunk any water yet. Could it be that she was crying because she was thirsty?

The jailer had good intentions, but after asking, he found that Zhuo Jiayu was crying very hard.

Even the jailers who had nothing to do with her would inquire and care, but her parents would not.

Maybe it’s not that I won’t, but that I don’t care.

He Jiuniang didn't know how long Zhuo Jiayu had been crying. Anyway, she went to catch up on her sleep in the room where Lu Baichuan lived before. At this time, in the court, all the civil and military officials were quarreling with Lu Baichuan.

Although it was He Jiuniang's idea to imprison Zhuo Jiayu, Lu Baichuan did not stop it and even condoned it. This was a taboo.

"A woman from the He family did not behave well as a wife of the back house, but she dared to interfere in the affairs of the court. She even abused her private power and imprisoned a young lady from the Duke's mansion for nearly a month. She acted so wantonly without any discipline. Is this how General Lu allowed the woman in the back house to behave so wildly?"

"Although the young lady from the Duke's Mansion was at fault, her crime was not serious enough. What He did was truly an insult to politeness. I request His Majesty the Crown Prince to impose a severe punishment!"

"General Lu is so indulgent in his behavior, his moral character is unworthy of his position, please His Highness the Crown Prince to take back the military power in his hands!"

"Had it not been for Mr. He's wanton behavior, the young lady of the Duke's Mansion would not have been harmed like this. Please make the decision for Miss Zhuo, Your Highness!"

……

Many people came forward to accuse Lu Baichuan and his wife. The prince's ears almost grew calloused, and he looked at Lu Baichuan helplessly.

Lu Baichuan stood up and said nonchalantly: "My lords are right, please take back the military power in the hands of the ministers."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that he would say this suddenly, and they didn't know how to respond for a while.

Is he really willing to give up his military power?Impossible, absolutely impossible!

The prince was the first to react and said seriously: "Nonsense, the current situation is so serious. If you give up the military power, who can take on such a heavy responsibility? Military training is at a critical period, and you can't just give up the burden just because you want!"

Originally, the courtiers were so preoccupied that they even thought about who to recommend as their replacement. Unexpectedly, the prince's words meant that even if they denied everything they just said, they would favor Lu Baichuan anyway.

The courtiers were very unhappy, and just as they were about to speak, Kang Tanhua stood up and said directly: "My lords are so accusing General Lu, but you have forgotten who was the person who restored peace to the capital? Who was the person who cracked the Dongting conspiracy? Who was the person who settled the palace incident? Who was the person who trained the soldiers day and night?"

"Everyone is blindly speaking for Duke Mu's Mansion, but you have forgotten why the young lady from the Duke's Mansion was imprisoned in the first place? She is not allowed to have private access to Dongting's secret work, and is even threatened as a hostage. Don't all the ministers know about it? Or do you think Those are not important. What is important is that General Lu has a large number of troops, which makes you have a sense of crisis and worry that you will be replaced. Or are you worried that some unclean background will be found out at any time? "
