Chapter 876

Back at the palace, Zao Zao went to find Yu Xi and Yun Qing. She was originally going to Guizhou but instead went to Wu's house. Parents must know that if she didn't hurry up to plead guilty, she would be punished more severely.

Yu Xi heard Xu Wu say that Zao Zao is coming: "Let her go to the main courtyard and wait, I will be there in a while." In fact, Yu Xi has nothing to do now, but she just wants to give Zao Zao time to think about what she did matter.

Xu Wu nodded and went down.

Seeing that Yunqing's face was ugly, Yuxi said softly: "Children are debts, so don't be angry, if you get angry, you will lose more than you gain."

Yun Qing said helplessly: "Forget it, it's useless to get angry after the situation is like this. You can talk to her carefully and see what she thinks? If it's really Wu Jinyu, then the marriage is settled Let's go!" I'm afraid if I let that girl go on, I'm afraid that the city will be full of storms. If the marriage is settled early, this matter can be rounded off.

Yuxi nodded: "I will talk to her carefully."

Zao Zao finished eating a plate of pastries and Yu Xi hasn't come yet. Zao Zao asked Ban Xia: "Go and see, is my mother back?"

Ban Xia went out for a trip and came back soon, shook his head towards Zao Zao and said: "Go back to the princess, the princess hasn't come back yet."

Another half an hour passed, and Yuxi hadn't come yet. Zao Zao knew that her behavior this time really annoyed Yu Xi and Yun Qing. Although he felt guilty, Zao Zao didn't regret it. But as time passed, Zao Zao became more and more uneasy.

When Zao Zao was thinking about it, he heard Ban Xia saying outside: "Princess, the princess has been waiting for more than half an hour."

Yuxi hummed and said, "You all go down!"

Zaozao stood respectfully at the door, looked at Yuxi and called Sheng softly: "Mother..." That pitiful look only appeared on Zaozao's face when she made a mistake.

Yu Xi ignored Zao Zao, but only walked towards the room, then sat on the imperial concubine chair and looked up at Zao Zao, just watching quietly without speaking.

It was the first time that Zao Zao was treated like this, and she felt a little nervous: "Mother, I know I was wrong, don't be angry."

Yu Xi didn't look away, stared at Zao Zao and asked: "You went to Wu's house, what did you say to Wu Jinyu?"

Zao Zao looked a little scared, lowered his head and said, "I asked Wu Jinyu why he didn't agree to this marriage."

Yu Xi leaned on the chair, and asked lightly: "What did Wu Jinyu say?" With Wu Jinyu's personality, she shouldn't be able to say anything harsh.

Zaozao's head drooped even lower: "He said that Mrs. Wu has been heartbroken for him since he was a child. If he gets married, Mrs. Wu will be sad."

As soon as Yuxi heard this, she knew something was wrong, and asked: "This means that Wu Jinyu doesn't want to marry, not because he doesn't want to, but because Mrs. Wu doesn't want to?" There is an essential difference.

Zao Zao shook his head and said, "I don't know, that's what Wu Jinyu said."

Yuxi laughed lightly, which made Zaozao tremble. Yuxi asked: "What do you have to say about what you did today?"

No matter how careless Zao Zao is, she also knows that what she did today is out of line: "Mother, I don't want to make myself regret, so I went to see Wu Jinyu. Mother, I know that if this matter spreads, others will say that I have no rules. But mother, if a person lives a lifetime, if he is always worried about being criticized, what is the point of living?" This is due to the double influence of Huo Changqing and Yuxi, Huo Changqing is a person who never cares about other people's opinions.

Yuxi said coldly: "That's right, but have you ever thought about how my father and I feel? The daughter we raised so hard is no one wants, so we have to rush? Or, for a man You don't even want your parents?"

Zao Zao was stunned.

Although Yuxi spoke so easily in front of Yunqing,

But there was a fire in her heart. Yuxi said: "You are my daughter and your father's daughter, so the Wu family dare not do anything. If it is a girl from an ordinary family, she will come to the door to inquire because of the failure of the marriage. Not only will the Wu family not let you in, but they will also think you are shameless. In fact, the Wu family doesn't say it on the face, but they definitely think so in their hearts." No matter how open the folk customs of Haocheng are, there is no big girl who would do such a thing.

After finishing speaking, Yuxi snorted coldly and said: "Since I was a child, your father and I have pampered you and followed you, even if you said that you want to become a female general, my father and I have not stopped you, and we have tried our best to make it for you." You paved the way. As a result, you stepped on the face of your parents in the mud for a man."

If Zao Zao could think so far, it wouldn't be her.

Yuxi sneered and said: "What is it that you want to be a female general? You don't even want your parents for a man. What kind of female general do you still want to be? Don't you want to marry Wu Jinyu? Well, your parents will help you."

Zao Zao panicked seeing Yu Xi like this, since she was a child, no matter how big a disaster she caused, she never saw Yu Xi like this.

Yuxi said: "I'll call Wu Kuo into the mansion later to settle your marriage with Wu Jinyu. You don't need to go to Guizhou to suppress any bandits, just embroider the dowry at home, and marry to Wu's family when you're done."

Zao Zao was dumbfounded, she never thought that going to Wu's house once would have such serious consequences. When she came back to her senses, Zao Zao knelt on the ground and said: "Mother, I know I was wrong, you can beat and scold me however you want, just please don't let me go to Guizhou."

Yu Xi was unmoved: "It's not that I didn't let you go to Guizhou, it was you who gave up." After finishing speaking, Yu Xi called out to the outside: "Come here, send the princess back to the yard."

Zao Zao was unwilling to leave.

Yuxi called Meilan and Jingbai over and asked them to tie up Zaozao. Zao Zao looked at Yu Xi in shock, and didn't resist after that, letting Mei Lan and Jing Bai tie her up.

Yuxi called Qiuhe and Hongdou to come over and said, "Without my order, she is not allowed to step out of the yard, otherwise I will take you as a question."

Hong Dou and Qiu He hurriedly agreed.

After getting the news, Yun Qing hurried back to the backyard, and seeing the calm Yuxi, he said, "Didn't you say you're not angry? Why did you tie that girl up?"

Yuxi said: "If you don't punish her severely this time, you will really be lawless in the future." It's not that she is not angry, but she buries her anger in her heart like Yun Qing does not show it on her face, and if she is also indignant It couldn't be better.

This time Yun Qing completely stood by Yu Xi's side, nodded and said: "You are right, it is time to teach this girl a profound lesson. If not, I don't know what absurd things she will do in the future."

Yuxi hummed and said: "I just told her that I will finalize her marriage with Wu Jinyu, but I will have to embroider the dowry at home in the future, and I will marry her off after I wait."

Seeing this, Yunqing asked: "Are you talking out of anger?" Seeing that Yuxi didn't make a sound, Yunqing said anxiously: "Yuxi, Zaozao has been practicing martial arts since she was three years old, and she has been practicing martial arts for twelve years now. Yes. These years, her ambition is to become a female general. If she is not allowed to lead the army because of this incident, it would be too cruel for her?" He was also very angry, and wanted to give Zao Zao a deep blow A lesson, but never thought of ruining Zao Zao's dream.

Yuxi snorted coldly and said: "It's not that I'm cruel, it's her own choice. Since she went to Wu's house instead of going to Guizhou to suppress the bandits, then I will fulfill her."

Seeing that Yu Xi was serious, Yun Qing hurriedly said: "If this is the case, then Zao Zao's life will be ruined."

Yu Xi glanced at Yun Qing, snorted coldly and said: "Who was so angry before that he wished he didn't have such a daughter, but now he will become a good father."

Hearing this, Yunqing heaved a sigh of relief: "I thought you were telling the truth?" Just now he really thought that Yuxi didn't allow Zaozao to go to Guizhou to suppress bandits, and let Zaozao marry someone!

Yu Xi rolled her eyes at Yun Qing and said: "It depends on her choice. Whether dreams are important or men are important. If she thinks men are important, there is really no need to go to the battlefield."

Seeing that Yu Xi didn't seem to be joking, Yun Qing said, "You mean, if Zao Zao chooses to be a female general, she has to give up Wu Jinyu?" And vice versa.

Yuxi nodded.

Yun Qing couldn't bear it: "In this way, wouldn't it make Zao Zao regret it for the rest of his life?" The husband and wife, in fact, Yun Qing is not as ruthless as Yu Xi.

Yuxi only said one sentence: "You can't have both. Well, let's not talk about it, can the war in Yunnan be resolved this year?"

Yun Qing shook his head and said: "It can't be solved in a short time. The mountains and mountains over there are complex and very dangerous. If you lead troops in, you will only go there and never return."

Yu Xi said: "Then let it go first."

Brother Hao, after class, heard Zhao Hui, the valet, say that Zao Zao was bound back to the yard by Wuhuada, thinking he heard it wrong: "Didn't eldest sister go to Guizhou?"

Zhao Hui said in a low voice, "The princess didn't go to Guizhou, but he seems to have gone to Wu's house. I didn't find out what's going on." Zhao Hui can always find out any news from the palace as soon as possible.

Hearing about the Wu family, Brother Hao's expression darkened slightly. Just as Yu Xi expected, he already knew why Zao Zao postponed going to Guizhou. He had already settled the matter, but he didn't expect another moth to appear in Zao Zao.

Zhao Hui was a little surprised to see Brother Hao returning to Jingyuan Hall. He thought that the son would go to visit the princess when he got the news.

The triplets and Liu'er were not well informed, and it was only in the afternoon that they found out that Zao Zao hadn't gone to Guizhou.

Brother Rui asked Qi Hao: "Big Brother, didn't Big Sister leave for Guizhou this morning, why did she come back? She was locked up in the yard by Mother?" Anyway, Big Brother knows everything, so asking him is definitely right.

Qi Hao said slowly: "Eldest sister has done something wrong and made mother angry, so lock her in the yard and let her reflect on herself. Don't go to elder sister until mother calms down."

Brother Yu said: "Being able to be locked up by mother, I'm afraid it's not a small mistake." His mother usually doesn't get angry, but once she gets angry, it won't go away easily.

Because Liu'er assisted the housekeeper, she was better informed than the triplets. Knowing that Zao Zao went to Wu's house instead of Guizhou, she immediately knew why Yu Xi was so angry.

When having dinner at night, the five siblings did not mention Zao Zao who was locked in the yard as if they had discussed it.

After dinner, Brother Hao left with the triplets. Liu'er stayed behind: "Mother, did my sister go to Wu's house to meet Wu Jinyu, that's why she didn't go to Guizhou?" Liu'er also had a headache for Zao Zao's reckless behavior.

Yu Xi hummed and asked, "What? You want to intercede for her?"

Liu'er did not deny it: "Mother, Eldest Sister is really interested in that Wu Jinyu. Mother, you can fulfill her!" If she hadn't really liked her, her eldest sister would not have been able to postpone going to Guizhou and be patient in the mansion. Wait for the news. Knowing that the marriage failed, she couldn't help but ran to Wu's house to ask Wu Jinyu.

Yu Xi was silent for a while and said: "This matter is not as simple as you think. Mother will handle this matter, you don't have to worry." Seeing Liu'er's worried face, Yu Xi smiled and said: "Silly Girl, there is no mother in this world who doesn't want her daughter to live well. "

Seeing this, Liu'er didn't say anything more.

While talking, Han Ji came over and reported that Wu Kuo had asked Fang to see him. Obviously, the two came to plead guilty.

Yuxi said: "Meilan, you go tell them, just say that I know this matter has nothing to do with them."

Mei Lan went away in response, and came back not long after: "Princess Wu, Mrs. Wu has brought Mrs. Wu back." People are annoyed.

After a pause, Meilan whispered: "Princess, I also disclosed to them the fact that the Princess is under house arrest." After following Yuxi for so many years, there is still some tacit understanding.

Yuxi nodded, and then went to take a nap.

When Yunqing came back from the front yard, Yuxi had already fallen asleep. Yun Qing breathed a sigh of relief, the husband and wife have known each other for so many years. If Yuxi is really angry, how can she sleep. It can be seen that this time Yuxi put Zaozao under house arrest in the yard and said that she was not allowed to lead troops, just to teach that girl a profound lesson.

After figuring this out, Yunqing decided not to intervene in Zaozao's matter, and let Yuxi handle it. To save him from meddling, defeating Yuxi's plan and failing to achieve the expected effect.

In the evening, Brother Hao went to see Zao Zao. Walking into the yard, it was quiet inside. Qiu He whispered, "The princess is copying scriptures in the study."

Brother Hao asked, "Is it mother's punishment?" Seeing Qiu He shaking his head, Brother Hao felt that the sun was coming out from the west.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Zao Zao was overjoyed, seeing that it was Brother Hao, he was a little disappointed, and lowered his eyes and said, "Ah Hao, you are here!"

Qihao looked at Zaozao's appearance, how could he not know what she was thinking: "Eldest sister, this time is different from before, you have touched mother's bottom line this time."

Zaozao said sadly: "I know." After finishing speaking, Zaozao looked up at Qihao and said, "Ah Hao, mother said that I will embroider the dowry at home to prepare for marriage. Ah Hao, mother loves you the most, help me Can you please please? No matter how mother punishes me, I just beg her not to let me go to Guizhou to suppress the bandits." She wants to become a female general who leads troops to fight, not a mediocre woman who only cares about her husband and children people.

Qihao asked: "Sister, do you regret it?"

Zao Zao was silent for a while and shook his head and said: "I don't regret it. I would regret it if I didn't ask him personally. But I acted carelessly. I should find a safe Fang family to see Jin Yu instead of taking someone carelessly. The Wu family."

Qi Hao took a deep look at Zao Zao, and said, "Elder Sister, did you identify this person?"

Zao Zao nodded and said, "Yes, I've decided on him." Once I've decided, I don't want to let go.

Qi Hao didn't express his opinion, but said: "I'll tell mother what you said just now." After speaking, Qi Hao walked out without stopping. (to be continued)
