Chapter 818 I'm Not Stupid
Zhuo Wei and his wife were determined to take Zhuo Jiayu back. Since they had already taken action, there was no reason to give up halfway.

They admitted that they were cruel, but for a daughter who had been in prison for such a long time, her reputation would be ruined even if she came out. She would not be able to marry into a good family, and the Duke Mu's mansion would become the laughing stock of the whole country. Before she becomes a laughing stock, squeeze out the last of her worth and bring glory and wealth to the Duke's palace.

The couple looked at each other. If the old emperor didn't see them today, they would be unable to kneel here.

"My lord, your Majesty no longer cares about government affairs. If you have anything to do, you should go to His Highness the Crown Prince."

The father-in-law next to him couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to remind him. Although he had said it three times this morning, his tone was still very gentle.

After all, it was really hard to accept that something like that happened to my daughter while she was in jail, so I felt a little more sympathetic.

Zhuo Wei showed bitterness on his face and said pitifully: "It's just that His Highness the Crown Prince couldn't get through the request, and we as husband and wife were desperate, so we asked the Emperor to make the decision. Please, father-in-law, please understand how we feel as parents!"

Mrs. Yan was crying beside her very cooperatively. Although she didn't make much sound, her tears fell like tears. She looked really miserable.

But the father-in-law's face suddenly darkened, and the sympathy that had just aroused disappeared in an instant.

As a eunuch, how could he understand their parents' feelings?

Killing hearts!

The father-in-law snorted coldly, ignored them, turned and left.

When the old emperor woke up, someone still said something about Zhuo Wei and his wife. The old emperor didn't even think about it and said, "I don't care about these things now. Let them go to the prince."

The old emperor was still a little angry when he said this. After all, he had said that he would ignore the government affairs and leave all matters to the prince. If he suddenly intervened in the Zhuo Wei family's affairs now, wouldn't it be obvious that the prince would not be able to step down?

The father-son relationship between them has finally been repaired, but there can't be any further rift because of these things.

Furthermore...he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Did Zhuo Wei spread rumors that Jiu Yatou was his daughter some time ago?"

"That seems to be the case, but Mrs. Lu doesn't admit it and has never seen anyone from the Zhuo family. She always asks the housekeeper to lead people to beat away the Zhuo family who come to the door."

When the old emperor heard this, he immediately snorted coldly: "This Zhuo Wei, his abacus is such that I heard it in the palace!"

At first, Hezhu wanted to get close to the Lu family, but seeing no chance, he wanted his daughter to take the opportunity to get close to Lu Baichuan. He was caught by He Jiuniang, and now he became angry and wanted to cause trouble for the Lu family again.

It’s as if no one can see such a simple trick!

The old emperor looked like he had seen through everything and said: "A person like this still wants to get benefits from Jiu Yatou, no! Go and drive them away quickly. Don't come and get involved with me."

Concubine Liu was amused by these words and asked, "How did the emperor find out?"

To be honest, she was really curious. Aren't men generally not interested in these little tricks?Or, they don’t care about these details at all, so only women can see many things.

"I'm not stupid!"

The old emperor is becoming more and more arrogant. Some things are not really invisible, but it depends on whether he is willing to care about them. If it is harmless, he will turn a blind eye. If he leaves the cabinet, then naturally he cannot tolerate it.

Concubine Liu nodded and said no more. Sure enough, the man didn't really know everything. The important thing was to see who the other party was.

In all the years she had been in the palace, she had really only seen the emperor being so interested in a woman.She had every reason to suspect that if the emperor were younger and He Jiuniang was not married yet, the harem would probably change hands, let alone her place.

However, since the emperor began to change, she has been by his side, and she has not seen that the emperor has too many special feelings for He Jiuniang, as if it was just the feelings of a real elder towards a junior he likes very much.

Thinking about it this way, it seemed that she was overthinking.

On the other side, a young eunuch went out to tell the old emperor what he wanted. When Zhuo Wei heard that the old emperor didn't want to see him, he immediately became unhappy and started crying and howling outside.

Just as the palace maids and eunuchs were preparing to drive people away, someone came to deliver news that His Highness the Crown Prince had agreed to let Zhuo Jiayu go home.

Zhuo Wei and his wife were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect the prince to agree so much.

However, before they could get too happy, they heard the messenger continue: "What your Highness means is that Duke Mu left without permission during the period of confinement. He has no laws and needs to be punished with thirty boards." You can leave the palace."

Zhuo Wei was stunned again. He came to ask the emperor for his daughter. Is this wrong?
That prince is really evil-hearted, why would he help the Lu family to embarrass him?

Now that the matter has come to this, no matter how much he hates it in his heart, he still has to shout out his thanks to His Highness for showing mercy, and then obediently follow others to receive the punishment.

Zhuo Wei was about to faint after being tortured with the cane. Naturally, he couldn't pick up Zhuo Jiayu in person. Yan went there alone.

In the prison, he held Zhuo Jiayu and cried loudly, and said some resentful words to He Jiu Niang. Only then did people carry Zhuo Jiayu away. From the beginning to the end, they did not ask about Zhuo Jiayu's current situation, nor did they Ask He Jiuniang for the antidote.

It's like she doesn't care about her body at all.

Zhuo Jiayu's heart sank as she thought about the things He Jiu Niang had given her and the words she had said before her mother came.

He Jiuniang watched the Zhuo family's carriage leave, and was about to go back to catch up on her sleep when she saw Lu Baichuan coming on horseback.

She waved her hand, and Lu Baichuan came over, stretched out his hand and pulled her onto the horse's back, and the two of them returned to the general's mansion together.

Lu Baichuan held the reins with one hand and hugged He Jiu Niang's waist with the other, and took the initiative to explain: "Your Highness left me to talk, so I came out late. Thank you for your hard work last night. I will take you back to have a good sleep."

Lu Baichuan only learned about what happened last night on the way to court, and was told that his wife deliberately hid it from him and didn't want him to travel back and forth. He felt sorry for his wife again.

He is a grown man and it doesn't matter if he makes a few trips. On the contrary, his wife, who is obviously a woman, is always at the forefront of everything and thinks of him at all times.

"Well, after you send me back, you take people to the Duke's Mansion to guard it. If you hear anything being thrown, take action. This is the code I told Zhuo Jiayu."

He Jiuniang leaned in Lu Baichuan's arms. She was busy last night, and now it was Lu Baichuan's turn to run around.

In fact, she could go along and see the excitement, but on second thought she felt it was unnecessary. Anyway, the situation was pretty much what she had guessed.

"it is good."

Lu Baichuan understood He Jiu Niang's meaning almost immediately. His wife had always been prudent in handling affairs and must be sure, so she asked someone to notify him before he went to court and asked him to agree to let Zhuo Jiayu go back.
