Chapter 645 Contradictions (3)
After Madam Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, she asked everyone to leave, and she stayed with her eldest daughter-in-law to serve Madam Zhou.

Zhou Bochu returned to his room, closed the door, and took out the letter hidden in his sleeve.The content of the letter is two pages in total, which is not too long.

The general content of the letter is to ask his father whether he has forgotten about Qixia Pass, whether he has forgotten the matter of killing his brother; warn his father to be smart and stop immediately, so as not to get involved in some right and wrong, so as not to worry about it. The entire Zhou family was murdered.The last point I wrote was different from the previous one, which was a little less polite. I suggested that his father pretend to be sick in the near future, ask the court for leave, and not take a step out of the house until the limelight has passed.

Zhou Bochu frowned.His younger uncle Zhou Qiao died at Qixia Pass.Furthermore, he once overheard his father arguing with Zhou Boyan.Zhou Boyan said that his uncle's death was related to his father.Now, because of this secret letter, the grandmother beats his father angrily, saying that she has delayed Ai Sun's hind legs.He didn't need to think about who the grandson Ai was talking about, and it was none other than Zhou Boyan.

From this point of view, his father was indeed related to my uncle's death.How could this be?What kind of right and wrong was his father involved that made Zhou Boyan write such a letter and send it?What could be the cause of death for the entire Zhou family?
He was lost in thought when the door rang and someone came in.He hastily tucked the letter up his sleeve.

"Bring it." Zhou Bohua stood behind his brother with a gloomy expression.

Zhou Bochu turned around and asked calmly, "Brother, what do you want?"

The 33-year-old Zhou Bohua works in the Ministry of War and is the eldest son of Zhou Shilang and Mrs. Zhou.The official uniform on his body was still on, obviously Mrs. Zhou passed out when he came back, so it was too late to change.He stared fixedly at Brother Yao, "Bring it here."

Zhou Bochu understood, the eldest brother knew that he had taken the secret letter.Unable to do so, he sent the letter.

Zhou Bohua shook open the letter, read it, and put it in his sleeves expressionlessly, "Bochu, the secret letter is rotten in my stomach, you and I don't know anything, understand?"

Zhou Bochu desperately needed an answer, "Brother, what did daddy do? It's okay for fifth brother to be dissatisfied, why did grandma faint in anger?" It was none other than Zhou Boyan who called fifth brother.

Zhou Bohua turned around gloomily, "Don't ask around. I'll put it back in place." He left the residence of the sixth younger brother, first turned to his own room, changed his official uniform, and then went to his father's study.

Zhou Shilang is looking for letters in the study.He only remembered that his mother beat him with a cane after reading the letter. He was not sure if the letter fell on the ground or on his mother.

Zhou Bohua closed the door of the study, walked up to Zhou Shilang, and while Zhou Shilang was not paying attention, he quietly threw the letter behind the desk.Then he asked, "Father, what are you looking for?"

Zhou Shilang's complexion was not very good, "Go and see your grandmother." He wanted to dismiss his son.

Zhou Bohua didn't intend to leave, "Father, what happened to your face?"

Zhou Shilang was annoyed, "It's okay."

Zhou Bohua said seemingly unintentionally, "Father, I heard a rumor when I left the government office."

"Speak." Zhou Shilang was busy looking for the letter, looking a little impatient.Because the content of the letter really cannot be seen by others, you can only find it yourself.

"The Sixth Prince has entered the palace to ask for a marriage decree for Princess Yun."

"Really!"

"I heard that the Sixth Prince prefers Bu Feihu, who is known as the number one talent in Da'an."

"What?" Zhou Shilang was taken aback.He is promoting the marriage of the sons and daughters of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and the Bu Mansion, how did the Sixth Prince get involved?
"What Mr. Guo said should be the truth, and it shouldn't be spreading rumors."

Zhou Shilang went out in a hurry, and immediately saw the letter lying on the ground behind the desk.He thought it was here, and quickly picked it up, "Father has something to go out, you should take care of grandma."

Annoyance flashed across Zhou Bohua's eyes, but he said, "Father, your face...is not suitable for going out."

Zhou Shilang stopped immediately.His face really can't go out to meet people.A colleague asked him what's wrong with your face. Could it be that he was beaten by his old lady?

The maid was bringing in hot tea.Zhou Bohua stepped forward to pick it up and signaled the servant girl to go down.Seeing Zhou Shilang standing with his back to him, Zhou Bohua put the tea bowl on the table and took out a small paper bag from his sleeve.He opened the small paper bag, rubbed the white powder inside with his fingernails, and took the paper bag back. "Father, please drink tea."

Zhou Shilang remained silent, thinking about how to get out.

Zhou Bohua took off the tea bowl cover, sprinkled the white powder from his fingernails into the tea, and then gently put the tea bowl cover on.

Zhou Shilang was torn between whether to go out or not, he walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and finally walked to the table and sat down.He picked up the tea bowl, removed the lid of the tea bowl, blew on the tea leaves floating on it, and took a sip of the tea.

Zhou Bohua resigned and left the study.He went to Mrs. Zhou's house and sat down, said that his friend had invited him to something, left the mansion, and went to Ruyi Restaurant.

In the private room, An Rongzhou was enjoying eight plates of delicate dishes.

Zhou Bohua sat across from him, took the jug on the table and poured wine for himself, and then drank silently.

An Rongzhou was dressed in a dandyish attire.Seeing Zhou Bohua's appearance, he stretched out his left leg with a smile and put it on the chair next to him, "I said, don't you think I'm the most despised? Why did you come here to drink my wine?"

Zhou Bohua was silent, and he drank seven or eight glasses of wine before vigorously putting down the wine cup, "You are right. No one can persuade him, he will only go his own way." Father obviously did not listen to the fifth brother's warning. Planning to go out in a hurry to find someone to discuss.Who to consult with?Left is nothing but right.Grandmother was so angry that she beat Dad, but Dad didn't take advantage of the situation to pretend to be sick, but instead wanted to go out to find the right minister.

Hearing this, An Rongzhou raised his eyebrows, "You made a choice?"

Zhou Bohua didn't speak, and continued to drink.Yes, he made a choice.He made a choice between being a filial son, or being a rebellious son to save the lives of the entire Zhou family.

When my uncle died, he was already an adult.Grandfather and grandmother punished father to kneel in front of the ancestor's memorial tablet. He heard the second half of what his grandfather and grandmother said when they scolded father.

My uncle could have escaped from Qixia Pass to Xichang State an hour earlier.It's dad, it's dad who listened to someone's words and stopped my uncle twenty miles away from Qixia pass, tying him and not letting him go.The eldest princess ordered that father and the person brought by father be tied up, and they were left on the side of the road and continued on their way.However, it was delayed for a full hour, and it was about to cross Qixia Pass, and the pursuers arrived.In the end, my uncle died.

He didn't know why the uncle's family wanted to escape, and he didn't know why Empress Wu wanted to hunt down the uncle's family.All he knew was that his father killed his uncle.

He kept his grandfather's last words in his heart.If Zhou Boyan had any wish, the Zhou family would do everything in their power to help it come true.He didn't know what Zhou Boyan's wish was to fulfill, he only knew that Zhou Boyan wanted his father to pretend to be sick and stay away from some kind of right and wrong, so as to preserve the entire Zhou mansion.If his father doesn't listen, then it's up to him to achieve what Zhou Boyan wants.
