Chapter 217: Ancient World 34: Refugees

Zuo Qing'an heard this, but could only shake his head helplessly, "Ayun, listen to me, the emperor and the nobles are different from us ordinary people!"

"He's willing to pamper you and love you now, but you must also know your limits, otherwise one day in the future, this will be a living handle!"

"Most importantly, hasn't the Sixth Prince already agreed to send Cuiyun to the manor? In that case, you should step back for now."

"No matter what, take care of yourself first!"

Su Yun pushed Zuo Qing'an away and said, "I knew you had bad intentions. You're on his side! The Fifth Prince still doesn't have any concubines. Aren't you very proud of yourself? I'm telling you, don't even think about laughing at me! I have to deal with Cuiyun today!"

Seeing that Su Yun was completely disobedient and even wanted to attack Zuo Qing'an, the two of them had no choice but to leave.

Zuo Zhizhi was sent home to rest, while Zuo Qingan went to the palace alone to apologize to the emperor and the empress.

After all, the original intention was to persuade Su Yun, but it didn't work at all, which let down the two people's good intentions.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother knew that what she did was not right, so she did not criticize her. She even gave her some gifts and comforted her.

Letting Zuo Qing'an persuade Su Yun is indeed not the best person.

Because among the current princes, only the fifth prince, whom Zuo Qing'an married, has no other concubines. This is not because he is so chaste, but because his health is poor, so he can only take care of them.

Although my health has improved recently, it is impossible for a person to recover all at once after being ill for more than 10 years.

Even if someone dared to give him a concubine, I'm afraid he would actively refuse it.

Beauty is great, but your life is more precious.

I just asked others to persuade him, but no one was willing to take on the burden, so it had to be delayed.

The Queen didn't care.

Although the Sixth Prince is young, the businesses under the Sixth Prince's wife are coveted.

Although he is not openly trying to seize the throne now, it is good to be able to eliminate an opponent in advance.

Zuo Qing'an came to the Zuo family as soon as he left the palace. After telling his father about this matter, he could only shake his head helplessly, "Let's try to hide! There's no telling when this struggle for imperial power will end!"

Zuo Qingan had anticipated this, so she simply nodded, "Daughter understands!"

When Zuo Qing'an was about to leave, Zuo Zhizhi quietly ran to the side and asked, "Sister, if it is your brother-in-law who is planning to take a concubine today, what are you going to do?"

"What to do? Nothing to do!"

"But……"

"If it were an ordinary family, being jealous would only lead to a few comments. If the family had a good relationship, it wouldn't even have any impact at all."

"But this is the royal family. There are no divorced daughters-in-law in the royal family, but there are countless lonely ghosts who died young! Being jealous in the royal family will only lead to death!"

"The Sixth Prince's Consort..."

"People with abilities naturally have their own privileges, but this also depends on others' tolerance. If they can no longer tolerate it, it will be blatant evidence of their guilt!"

Seeing that Zuo Qing'an thought so clearly, Zuo Zhizhi didn't know what to feel.

After all, my sister made such a sacrifice entirely because she married into the royal family.

Only if she is magnanimous and takes care of the housework can she give herself a good way out.

Only the children of the Zuo family will have a bright future.

If Zuo Qing'an is confused and at a loss, or even does something bad, it will be difficult for him and the other children of the Zuo family to get married!

This is the ancient clan's principle of "prosperity and adversity together".

"Don't be afraid, sister. I'm here for you! If your brother-in-law ever makes you unhappy, remember to tell me. Although the royal family doesn't have daughters-in-law who divorce, I've seen widows in the royal family live a carefree and comfortable life."

Zuo Zhizhi's voice was very soft. After all, it was extremely rebellious to say such words. If anyone heard them, neither of them would end up well.

Zuo Qing'an didn't take it to heart at all. She just rubbed her sister's head and said with a smile, "Okay, from now on, I'll rely on you!"

Although she knew that Zuo Qing'an didn't believe it, Zuo Zhizhi had already kept this matter in mind.

Perhaps because the incident at the Sixth Prince's Mansion caused quite a stir, everyone was paying close attention to it.

I originally thought that the two would just quarrel like this, but unexpectedly, Su Yun took the initiative to take a step back and chose to let Cuiyun live in the manor.

The Sixth Prince felt a little regretful. After all, he had been inseparable from Cuiyun these days. You know, Cuiyun was the girl who had always served him.

The most important thing is that Cuiyun did not intend to hurt Su Yun's child. She was just too worried about herself and afraid that she would get hurt, so she pushed it.

But when he saw Su Yun give in, the Sixth Prince still breathed a sigh of relief.

It was decided to send Cuiyun to Zhuangzi for a while.

Anyway, the living conditions there are not bad. The most important thing is that after this period of time, when the princess has forgotten about this matter, it will not be too late to make plans.

Originally, this matter would have passed like this, but who knew that Cuiyun, who was sent to the farm, did not last for two months.

A group of refugees who came from nowhere rushed to the nearby area. They attacked everywhere and even broke into the village.

At this time, Cuiyun, who was hiding inside, was abducted alive and has now completely disappeared without a trace.

Even though no one said it explicitly, everyone's suspicious eyes unconsciously turned to Su Yun.

Only this person has sufficient motivation and even sufficient ability.

After all, Su Yun's business is very large and involves a wide range of people. It is very easy to find a few strangers from other places to pretend to be refugees.

What's more, they took Cuiyun away with a purpose, and recently He Cuiyun was the only one who had a grudge against her!

However, there was no evidence for this matter, and no one dared to openly implicate the Sixth Princess, so they could only secretly gather information.

The only thing we know is that the Sixth Prince and the Sixth Princess, who had finally reconciled, are now quarreling again!

This time, there was no need for them to go over and mediate. After all, the matter had already been settled, and they were not there directly to mediate!

This couple quarrels every other day. Doesn't it mean other people don't have to live their lives?

I can't have nothing to do all day long just to help them solve their problems!

Therefore, although everyone was very concerned, without the emperor's order, they let the two of them solve it.

After all, this matter is just the punishment of a maid at the very least, but it is suspected of treason at the most serious level!

If we can control the suspects who dare to commit evil in the capital, will we be able to expand the number of people and attack the city directly one day?

The emperor was also very dissatisfied with this, but considering that Su Yun's business was booming and had enriched his treasury, he reluctantly suppressed it.
