Chapter 38 "The emperor is heartless and has no children, and the concubines are causing troubl
Yu Jinshu thought Chu Zan's arrangement was very good.
His father, Yu Xiaoyuan, was a marquis in the capital, but he was demoted when he became a county magistrate in Guizhou.
There is also the second mother, Zou, who was born in a small family. When she was young, she managed to get along with Yu Xiaoyuan, and she poisoned her mother, Wen, crazy. She got the position of an equal wife and became the second wife of the Hou family, and she was very famous. Years ago, but now she is going to follow her husband Yu Xiaoyuan to a wild place like Guizhou to become the county magistrate's wife.
Moreover, Yu Xiaoyuan was demoted because the Zou family offended his eldest daughter Yu Jinshu. He was unhappy and had a bad temper. In this way, could the Zou family get any good results?
Yu Jinshu knew his father's temperament very well.
Let's talk about Yu Yunli. She wants to marry into a wealthy family and become the mistress. Now she has a bad reputation in the capital. In the past, she almost broke through the barriers of the Hou Mansion, but now no one comes to propose marriage in the Hou Mansion.
Even those who had proposed marriage before had to take a detour when they saw Yu Xiaoyuan and Zou, for fear of getting entangled.
Yu Yunli is of marriageable age. If she goes to Guizhou, there is a high probability that she will marry in Guizhou. If she gets married in Guizhou, there is a high probability that she will have to stay in Guizhou for the rest of her life.
Yu Jinshu understood very well that Yu Yunli definitely did not want to go to a place like Guizhou.
Just as Yu Jinshu expected, Yu Yunli cried to death in the Dingping Marquis Mansion.
"Mom, I don't want to go to Guizhou. I heard that there are mountains there, and you can't get out even if you go in."
Mrs. Zou wiped her tears and said, "Yun'er, mother doesn't want to go to Guizhou either, but it's hard to disobey the emperor's order!"
Yu Yunli cried: "Mom, I heard that there are many bandits in Guizhou. Those bandits usually make a living by robbing. I also heard that many people who went to Guizhou to be officials died on the way. I don't want to die. I'm like this Miss Qianjin, they will definitely rob me and go to the mountain."
Yu Xiaoyuan was very upset. He couldn't stand hearing his second daughter crying all the time. He shouted at her, "Why are you crying? If you and your mother hadn't treated Jin Shu harshly, how could the emperor have demoted me?"
Ms. Zou buried her head, not daring to say a word. Recently, Yu Xiaoyuan always disliked her. He either yelled at her or slapped her all day long, almost venting all his anger on her head.
Yu Yunli has always been willful, and she didn't stop now. She didn't care about her father's feelings at all. She walked up to his father and cried: "Dad always scolds me, but you have never blamed me and my mother for treating Yu Jinshu harshly before!"
Yu Xiaoyuan has been feeling more and more guilty about past events recently. When Yu Yunli mentioned this matter, it really touched his nerves, and he was so annoyed that he slapped Yu Yunli on the face.
Yu Yunli covered her painful and numb face, her eyes widened: "Daddy, please hit me."
This was the first time her father spanked her, and this time he slapped her directly. Maybe her father hit her too hard, and she felt her ears buzzing.
Yu Xiaoyuan regretted it after the beating. He had already offended one daughter, should he offend another? He only has these two daughters!
Yu Yunli ran out crying, but Zou couldn't catch up with her.
"What are you chasing after? How far can she run as a girl?"
Zou said: "But we are about to set off."
Not long after Yu Yunli ran out of the Hou Mansion, she was stopped by a young man.
She looked at the strange man in front of her, a little frightened: "Who are you?"
This man was wearing civilian clothes, but his face looked a little noble, and his eyes were a little sharp. He looked a bit like a down-and-out young man whose family had fallen into disgrace.
"Miss Yu, don't be afraid, my name is Wei Quhu."
Yu Yunli's eyes widened: "The Wei family in the capital?" The wealthy family she longed for and wanted to marry the most in the past was the Wei family in the capital.
The Wei family was the founding hero of the country, and it was precisely because of the glory of the Wei family that the Queen Mother summoned Wei Ruyan into the palace to become the queen.
It's a pity that Wei Ruyan conspired with King Xiang to usurp the throne and was executed. The Wei family was also implicated by her. Although the nine clans were not executed, they were demoted to common people.
Since then, there has been no Wei family in the capital.
Yu Yunli looked at Wei Quhu in front of her. Although he was wearing common people's clothes, he could not conceal his handsome demeanor.
In fact, she once fantasized about marrying Wei Quhu, and the Wei family also came to the Hou Mansion to propose marriage, but it didn't happen.
Fortunately, it didn't work out. Even if she liked Wei Quhu, she couldn't marry a commoner.
"Why did you come to me?"
"Miss Yu, I heard that you are going to Guizhou. If you go, you will always have to stay in a wild land like Guizhou."
Yu Yunli stared into Wei Quhu's eyes: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Wei Quhu's eyes were full of hostility: "Miss Yu and I have a common enemy. We both want Yu Jinshu to die."
Yu Yunli's eyes lit up and her tone became gentler: "Do you want to avenge your sister Wei Ruyan?"
Wei went to Hu Leng and said, "It's one thing that my sister was killed by your eldest sister, but my Wei family is the founding hero of the country, and my official position has been reduced to the people. I can't stand this anger."
Everything in the past is gone, including the family's glory, wealth, and supreme power.
Nowadays, some people are just being made fun of, being rejected by others, and still living in poverty.
But he never thought that the emperor was already merciful to the Wei family. Queen Wei's rebellion was a crime against the nine clans, but they were only allowed to cut officials to serve the people.
Yu Yunli asked: "Then what are your plans?"
Wei Quhu said: "The emperor will leave the palace tomorrow to accompany the Queen Mother to the Imperial Temple to pray for your eldest sister, and will stay one night at the Imperial Temple. I can arrange for you to go to the Imperial Temple."
He took out a packet of medicinal powder and handed it to Yu Yunli, "As long as the emperor takes your medicinal powder, the emperor will definitely favor you. At that time, you will definitely be brought into the palace by the emperor. At that time, you will be able to deal with your eldest son. Sister and the child in her belly.”
Yu Yunli has followed her mother to frame Wen Shi and Yu Jinshu since she was a child. Faced with this kind of thing, she is not afraid, but a little excited.
If she went to Guizhou, even if she could reach the county government alive, she would probably have to stay in that barbaric place forever.
If that were the case, life would really be worse than death.
It would be better to listen to Wei Quhu and give it a try tomorrow night. If she succeeds, not only can she stay in the capital forever, but she can also become the emperor's woman.
She was supposed to be the emperor's woman. If it hadn't been for that false rumor that the emperor didn't want to marry her, she might have been made empress.
"Okay, I promise you."
Wei Quhu smiled strangely and glanced at the carriage not far away: "Miss Yu Er, please! Let's go to the Imperial Temple to prepare now."
Yu Yunli turned back and glanced in the direction of the Hou Mansion. Her father and mother would leave for Guizhou soon. If she chose to go to the Imperial Temple at this time, she might never see her father and mother again in her life.
But no matter what, she will not go to Guizhou. She must become the emperor's woman tomorrow night.
