Chapter 696: The widowed sister-in-law is beautiful but has a tragic fate (24)

The imperial court was prepared and cooperated with Wen Zhao from both inside and outside, and the King of Shu was defeated even faster than in the original plot.

There is almost no power to fight back.

Only then did the King of Shu realize that Wen Zhao had reached so far and incited his most important and capable men to rebel. Those high-ranking officials or wealthy businessmen who had married the King of Shu were also unknowingly charged with countless crimes by Wen Zhao.

Between killing nine generations of a family and killing one person in exchange for the lives of the entire family, a smart person knows which to choose.

He was deserted by his friends and relatives, and the person he trusted most betrayed him at the critical moment. The King of Shu was attacked from both inside and outside, and finally tried to escape from the city with the protection of several death warriors, but was ambushed by the people led by Wen Zhao and was forced to surrender.

All property in the palace was confiscated, and all the people in the palace were immediately liquidated and taken to the capital.

During the house search, Wen Zhao saw the portrait of the legendary princess. He covered the upper half of her face and found that she did look somewhat like Gu Zhen.

On the back of the portrait of the princess is the King of Shu’s secret room. The amount of gold and silver hidden in it is staggering. No wonder the emperor is so wary of him.

At that time outside the post station, the King of Shu must have really wanted to save the beauty. If it weren't for this face, he and Gu Zhen would have been in great danger. After arriving in Shu, Wen Zhao also tried to repay this favor.

But the King of Shu was not fit to be a king. He was gloomy, cruel, and unscrupulous. In Shu alone, his cronies often took advantage of their power to oppress the people. If he became an emperor, they would be the ones who would suffer in the end.

After the King of Shu was captured, he accepted his defeat sincerely when facing Wen Zhao. He had only one request, that in consideration of the help he had given him in the past, the innocent women and children should suffer less on their way to the capital.

This was a trivial matter for Wen Zhao now, and he agreed readily.

After the escorting army left, Wen Zhao took over the administrative rights of Shu and was officially promoted to the second-rank governor. He governed Shu on behalf of the emperor and was rewarded with countless land, shops, and gold and silver.

Xie Songhan will stay for a while to assist Wen Zhao in dealing with the remaining matters in Shu.

This war was equivalent to not being fought. The common people in Shu only knew that the sky above their heads had changed, and everything else was no different from usual. The emperor even reduced some taxes.

Life is better now than when the King of Shu was here.

There were too many government affairs that needed to be handled, so Wen Zhao stayed in the government office with Xie Songhan for several days. When it was finally over, both of them were exhausted.

Wen Zhao played the role of a good host and invited his senior brother to his restaurant for a drink.

He really didn't expect that Qingzhi was here today. She was chatting and laughing with Gu Zhen, discussing a newly developed dish.

Wen Zhao touched his nose, looked at his wife, and then they all looked at Xie Songhan.

The prince of the marquis's mansion, who usually kept his emotions secret, a powerful official in the court and a favorite of the emperor, suddenly swayed and actually shed a few tears.

Qingzhi's first reaction was to run, but she quickly calmed down and nodded at Xie Songhan.

Some things always need to be made clear.

Qingzhi and Xie Songhan went to the backyard. As soon as she entered the house, she was hugged so tightly that she felt like she was going to die in his arms for a moment.

"Do you know how long I have been looking for you and how much I missed you?" His branches.

Qingzhi struggled to get free but failed, so he simply gave up: "Prince, let's talk it over."

Xie Songhan was also somewhat unfamiliar with Qingzhi's calmness. He let go of her but still held her hand tightly.

Qingzhi briefly talked about what had happened over the years, and Xie Songhan could tell that she was very happy and free.

I just don't think about him.

"If the prince wants to take me back, I can't resist and can only obey. But if you want me to be a concubine, I would rather go..."

Xie Songhan was a little anxious. There were too many misunderstandings between them. He interrupted Qingzhi: "You left without saying goodbye and convicted me without asking why. Now you are saying such discouraging words. Are you trying to stab me in the heart?"

He half-knelt in front of Qingzhi: "I didn't plan to marry the person arranged by my mother, it was just a delaying tactic. As for the child between us, it was really an accident. Can you forgive me?"

Qingzhi turned her face away. She hadn't cried for a long time, even when she thought of the child who had given her so much hope.

"I will marry you, in a formal ceremony, in a grand sedan chair," Xie Songhan had made up his mind long ago, "Give me another chance, Zhizhi, I love you, I really love you."

Qingzhi's tears fell. When she saw Xie Songhan's current appearance, she knew that he had not had a good time in the past two years.

She should be happy that the most rule-abiding person is willing to marry her, but why can't she smile?

"Prince, I want to stay here."

Qingzhi feels happy to stay here and live on her own, even if she will be alone for the rest of her life. She is happy and excited every day.

Qingzhi broke free from his hand and slowly smiled under Xie Songhan's stunned gaze.

"I became a store manager. I can cook a lot of novel dishes and support myself with my own hands."

"By the way, I changed my name. I'm no longer Qingzhi. My name is Lin Yueru."

......

After moving to the new house bestowed by the emperor, Wen Zhao was not so busy, and he and Gu Zhen resumed their previous life.

Walking around the long corridor, Wen Zhao approached his wife from behind and hugged her lovingly: "I'm back."

Gu Zhen didn't hold the bag of plums steady, so they fell onto her legs. Wen Zhao picked them up one by one and put them into her purse: "Why do you like eating these so much lately? I'll buy you some tomorrow after I get off work."

He didn't notice Gu Zhen's abnormality and continued to say, "Senior Brother has returned to Beijing, but he will probably come again. These past few days, he has been secretly watching Miss Lin cooking. To be honest, Miss Lin is much more lively now than when we first met her."

There were many admirers, which reminded Wen Zhao of the days when he was worried and anxious in the capital.

My senior brother’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and when he left the capital he felt as sad as if his ancestors’ graves had been dug up.

No one knew where this pair of enemies ended up.

Seeing that Gu Zhen ignored him, Wen Zhao leaned over and kissed her cheek: "What are you thinking about?"

Unable to understand the lovesickness, he pinched Gu Zhen's chin and deepened the kiss.

Wen Zhao kissed for a while, then his cheeks shrank: "How can you eat this plum when it's so sour?"

Gu Zhen couldn't help laughing and called him a fool.

Wen Zhao was stunned for a moment before he suddenly reacted. He widened his eyes and said, "You are pregnant? Have you called a doctor? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Is it okay to eat something so sour?"

Gu Zhen pushed him and said, "Stop making so much noise. What's the problem? I only ate one of these plums because they were too sour. Now I want to eat something spicy or salty, but it just doesn't taste good in my mouth!"

Wen Zhao was also inexperienced as a father for the first time, so he didn't know what to do. He hugged Gu Zhen and kissed her fiercely. Gu Zhen pushed him away in disgust and vomited.

Morning sickness is normal, and Wen Zhao didn't take it seriously at first. But as Gu Zhen's belly grew bigger day by day, he suddenly realized that Gu Zhen seemed to have vomited only once.

Mr. Wen's self-esteem suffered a great blow, and this feeling did not completely disappear until his daughter was born.

It’s normal for the little girl who looks like my wife to dislike her father.

Wen Zhao held his daughter in one hand and bent down to kiss his sleeping wife.

Gu Zhen vaguely felt that her cheeks seemed to be wet. She thought it was her daughter crying. Just as she was about to open her eyes, someone kissed her forehead.

"Go to sleep, Azhen."

Gu Zhen fell asleep peacefully, without noticing that the young governor wiped his tears sadly, smiled happily, kissed his wife, and then kissed his daughter.

Wen Zhao just felt that this life was enough.
