Xie Shizi's shameless daily life
Chapter 164 Chapter 164
Zhao Shu stared at his face for a long time. After finding that she could not get anything out of him, she turned her head to You Hong and said, "Sir You, I have no right to stop you from arresting people, but you have to give us a reason after all."
You Hong sneered: "You should ask the people around you what they did?"
Zhao Shu turned to look at Xie Jin and asked calmly, "What did you do?"
Xie Jin said innocently and puzzled: "I don't know either."
You Hong sneered: "Military School Xie Bu, have you forgotten how you colluded with the Hu people?"
Zhao Shu was very uncomfortable with his confident tone. She patiently asked, "Does Lord You have any evidence for what he said?"
You Hong looked at Zhao Shu and said, "Miss Zhao, this matter involves the country and family, how can you, a little girl, ask about it! Moreover, if it weren't for the emperor's order, how dare we arrest Xie Jin, the eldest son of the Duke of Xian, in public!"
Zhao Shu wanted to speak again, but You Hong interrupted her impatiently: "Miss Zhao, I would like to advise you not to bring trouble to your family because of your reckless behavior!"
Xie Jin narrowed his eyes and looked at You Hong, then smiled and looked at the back of Zhao Shu's head: "Okay, it's not a big deal, I'll just go with them!"
You Hong raised his lips in disdain: "You are quite sensible about the current situation!"
Xie Jin rolled over and waved to Zhao Shu with a smile before leaving with You Hong and the others: "You go back first, I'll come to see you in a few days!"
Zhao Shu looked at him without saying a word. After the people walked away, she gently squeezed the horse's belly and drove towards home.
The servants of the Zhao Mansion saw a man riding a horse coming from afar. They didn't pay much attention at first, but when they looked carefully, they were immediately stunned.
When Zhao Shu got closer, the servant came to his senses and whispered something to the person next to him. The person next to him reacted the same way as he did just now. After seeing that it was Zhao Shu, he nodded repeatedly and ran into the mansion.
As soon as Zhao Shu stopped her horse, the servant guarding the gate of Zhao Mansion ran towards her.
The servant took the reins from her hand and said politely, "Miss, I will help you get it."
Zhao Shu paused and turned to look at him. When the servant saw Zhao Shu looking at him, the smile on his face became even brighter.
Zhao Shu withdrew her gaze and walked towards the Zhao Mansion, with the servant following closely.
Looking at the people who were looking at her with smiles on their faces, Zhao Shu said calmly: "Is there any good news in the mansion recently?"
The servant shook his head and then asked politely, "Miss, do you want to go back to your room first? I'll go and ask someone to prepare a meal for you."
Zhao Shu asked him, "Is father in the mansion now?"
The servant nodded: "Yes, he is having dinner with the Madam in the main courtyard now."
There was no fluctuation in Zhao Shu's eyes, but her toes turned towards the main courtyard. The servant's brows flashed with embarrassment, and he looked at her and wanted to say something. After all, the lady had ordered earlier that the young lady was not allowed to step into the main courtyard unless it was an important matter. But when he thought of the lady's anger some time ago, he closed his mouth again.
The lady obviously cares about the girl. Is he going to offend the girl now because he thinks he has lived too long? !
Zhao Shu came to the main courtyard. The maid beside Zhang Lanyin was slightly startled when she saw that the person coming was Zhao Shu. Then she even forgot to bow to her and turned around and ran into the house.
Shuangxi ran into the house and said breathlessly: "Husband, Madam, the eldest girl is back!"
The chopsticks holding the dish fell on the table instantly. After a long while, Zhao Yao spoke: "Please invite the girl in."
After the others left, he picked up the chopsticks that had fallen on the table and handed them back to Zhang Lanyin: "Hurry up and take them. Shu'er will laugh at you when she sees you like this."
Zhang Lanyin took the chopsticks back into her hand, lowered her eyes and whispered, "I'm her mother, how dare she laugh at me!"
At this time, the curtain was opened from the outside, and Zhao Shu walked in. She bowed to the two elders: "Father, Mother."
Zhao Yao nodded, but Zhang Lanyin didn't react. Zhao Shu didn't care either. She turned to Zhao Yao and said directly, "Father, I have something to tell you."
Zhao Yao first glanced at Zhang Lanyin beside him, and then said, "There are no outsiders here, so feel free to say whatever you want."
Zhao Shu asked directly: "During the time when cousin Jin was missing, did anything happen in Shangjing?"
Before Zhao Yao could answer Zhao Shu's question, he was interrupted by a slam on the table: "Didn't I tell you to keep your distance from the Xie family? You didn't listen to a word I said, right or not!"
Zhao Shu looked over fearlessly: "I dare not forget a single word of what my mother said, but cousin Jin is not someone else. He is the brother who grew up with me. He is the brother who knows that I like to eat candied haws and like dolls!"
When Zhao Yao heard this, her expression darkened. Zhang Lanyin pointed at her with a shaking finger: "What are you accusing me of? I ask you, what are you accusing me of!"
Zhao Shu looked indifferent: "Mother, you are overthinking. I am not blaming anything. I am just stating a fact!"
Zhang Lanyin said yes repeatedly and picked up the cup of water on the table with trembling hands. Seeing that things were about to get worse, Zhao Yao immediately stood up and stopped her.
He shook his head at her. Zhang Lanyin's eyes were slightly red as she said, "Why are you stopping me? Let me smash this rebellious girl to death!"
Zhao Shu indifferently withdrew her gaze from her and said to Zhao Yao: "Father, I'll wait for you outside."
Zhao Shu's indifference stunned the two of them. When someone lifted the curtain and walked out, Zhang Lanyin fell into the chair in a daze.
Zhao Yao couldn't bear it, so he put his hand on her shoulder and comforted her, "Shu'er is still young, she will understand your painstaking efforts in the future."
Zhang Lanyin pulled his hand down and whispered, "Isn't she waiting for you outside? Go quickly."
Zhao Yao looked at her twice, and only turned and walked out after making sure that she was really okay.
Zhao Yao looked at the girl standing in the yard and sighed slightly, then walked towards her: "Come on, let's go to the study and talk."
Zhao Shu lowered her eyebrows and said, "Yes."
It was the first time that Zhao Shu stepped into her father's study, but she was no longer curious and just stood there obediently with her head lowered and her hands clasped.
Zhao Yao looked at her obedient appearance and sighed again in his heart, is this distance too far after all?
Zhao Yao pointed to a chair nearby and said, "Sit down."
Zhao Shu sat down obediently on the chair, and after she was seated, she looked at Zhao Yao and said respectfully: "Father, I just lost my composure, I hope you and mother won't blame me." Zhao Yao rubbed his brows tiredly: "It's not your fault." He looked over: "You, your mother is also worried about you, so she said those words a little harshly just now."
Zhao Shu nodded in understanding: "I understand my mother's painstaking efforts and I don't blame her."
Looking at his daughter who was unusually calm from the inside out, Zhao Yao sighed again in his heart: "Actually, it's okay if you want to blame your mother. You should blame me as well."
Zhao Shu didn't want to dwell on this topic, she planned to make a quick decision: "Father, if it was Xueying who made mother angry just now, do you think mother would throw the teacup on the table at her?"
Zhao Yao was stunned by her question for a moment and stood there in a daze.
Zhao Shu smiled and said, "Let me tell you, the answer is no. Mother will at most let Xueying go back to her room to reflect on her mistakes. Mother must know how important a girl's face is, but she is willing to do this to me, but she is reluctant to do this to Xueying."
Zhao Yao found that he could not refute his eldest daughter's words at all, because she was indeed right. If the person today was Xueying, no matter how angry Lan Yin was, she would not throw the cup at her.
Zhao Yao felt guilty and said in a hoarse voice, "This is all my father's fault."
Zhao Shu didn't want to hear any guilt talk about her now. With a flash of impatience in her eyes, she interrupted her father in a gentle tone, "Father, what exactly happened with cousin Jin?"
Zhao Yao knew that his daughter really didn't care about his and Lan Yin's attitude just now. After a moment's pause, he spoke with difficulty, "Someone saw Xie Jin walking with the Hu people and said that he was colluding with the Hu people."
Zhao Shu thought the person who said this was too absurd: "Cousin Jin was obviously abducted by the Hu people, how come they said he was colluding with the Hu people!"
"We didn't believe it at first, but the witness said that Xie Jin and the Hu people were like good friends. Xie Jin killed so many Hu people, how could the Hu people be able to chat and laugh with him?"
Zhao Shu frowned: "Your Majesty is going to punish him just because of this unfounded witness?"
Zhao Yao shook his head: "His Majesty has ordered a thorough investigation, but Xie Jin will have to spend some time in prison before the truth comes out."
Zhao Shu lowered her eyes and said nothing. After a while, she said, "Father, can you take me into the palace?"
Zhao Yao looked at her in confusion: "What are you going to do in the palace?"
Zhao Shu said calmly, "I'm going to be a witness for Cousin Jin to prove that he didn't collude with the Hu people!"
Zhao Yao frowned in disapproval: "This is not something a girl like you can interfere with!"
Zhao Shu was unmoved: "Since Your Majesty can listen to the words of a person of unknown origin, why can't he listen to me!"
Zhao Yao frowned fiercely: "This matter has already left a thorn in His Majesty's heart. Your proof alone is useless at this time."
Zhao Shu looked at him fearlessly: "Father, how could you know it would be useless? Your Majesty is a wise ruler. He will know right from wrong."
Zhao Shu knew the dilemma in his heart. She stood up from her chair, came to him and knelt down: "Father, I know that doing this will bring a lot of unnecessary trouble to the mansion." She knocked her head to the ground: "I ask to be expelled from the family tree!"
Zhao Yao was shocked by her words and blurted out: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Zhao Shu looked up at him: "My daughter knows what she is talking about!"
Zhao Yao was furious. Emotionally, Xie Jin had fought with him for so many years and he naturally didn't want anything to happen to him. But selfishly speaking, this was a very murky water and he didn't want to put the entire Zhao family into it because of Xie Jin.
Zhao Shu looked at his expression and knocked her head to the ground again: "My daughter will no longer beg father to take me into the palace. I only ask father to expel me from the family tree!"
Zhao Yao stared at her without blinking: "Have you really thought it through?"
Zhao Shu also looked back without blinking: "Think it over!"
Zhao Yao looked at her steadily: "You know, after being expelled from the family tree, you are no longer my daughter, Zhao Yao, and it will be much more difficult for you to get married in the future!"
Zhao Shu: “I know!”
Zhao Yao looked at his daughter, who looked strange from the inside out, and turned to look out the window. He said calmly, "Okay, I'll invite all the elders to come and talk about this matter!"
Zhao Shu finally showed a smile on her face: "Thank you, father!"
Zhao Yao felt a little tired, so he waved his hand to let Zhao Shu go out. Zhao Shu had achieved her goal and didn't plan to stay here any longer. She bowed to Zhao Yao and walked out, lifting her skirt.
Zhao Yao closed his eyes and rested for a while before getting up and walking towards the main courtyard.
When he entered the room, he saw Zhang Lanyin still sitting in the same seat as before. She raised her eyes to look at him, and he also looked at her: "Shu'er asked to be expelled from the family tree, and I agreed."
Zhang Lanyin's originally peaceful expression suddenly cracked. She stood up from her seat and looked at Zhao Yao in disbelief: "What did you say!"
Zhao Yao repeated what he had just said: "Shu'er asked me to expel her from the family tree!"
Zhang Lanyin lost her voice and said, "You agree?"
Zhao Yao nodded: "Yeah."
Zhang Lanyin paced around the room in a panic, "How could you agree to this without consulting me? How could you not consult me about such a big thing?"
