Side Story, Hu Yulin Jie 17

Time flew by quickly as they reminisced about the past. During the day, when the Prime Minister’s Estate found out that Great General Ming had returned, they were extremely anxious.

As long as the Emperor was not a fool, he would know what to do.

Therefore, she only needed to close the door and have a good sleep.

Lin Jie nodded.” Yes, I know what to do. Go to sleep.”

Hu Yu fell asleep very quickly. Lin Jie then walked out of the room and went to the kitchen to make soup for Hu Yu.

The Great General Ming, who should have died, had returned alive. In one morning, the entire capital was shocked by this news. The news that the Prime Minister’s wife had forced the General’s wife to hang herself was also spread.

The people discussed and criticized angrily. In the court, the Emperor sternly reprimanded the Prime Minister.

This made Prime Minister Zhou feel ashamed, angry, and helpless. The Bureau of Military Personnel had to investigate this case.

After the court session, many of the officials were preoccupied. They didn’t even have time for their daily small chats. They hurried home and immediately called their wives and daughters up. They sternly asked if they had bullied the two sisters of the Great General Ming and if they had participated in the matter of the poisonous ink staining their faces.

The death of the Great General Ming could be a big or small matter, but he had returned alive, so this matter could not be small.

If she had participated, it might not be too late to go and beg for forgiveness now. After all, the one who had attacked the most was the Prime Minister’s daughter. Compared to her behavior, the bullying of others would be insignificant.

Prime Minister Zhou returned to the manor. His face was extremely dark.” Go and call the Madam over,” he roared.

He was already so old, yet he was still implicated by his daughter. This was all because his daughter did not have a good mother. If she had a good mother, his daughter would not have done such a disgraceful thing.

Madam Zhou rushed over. Before she could say anything, she was slapped by Prime Minister Zhou.” This is all your fault.”

Madam Zhou felt wronged from being beaten. She had given birth to his children, but now she was humiliated like this. Madam Zhou could not swallow this anger. She gritted her teeth and said in a trembling voice,” Old Master, what did I do wrong for you to treat me like this?”

Prime Minister Zhou was furious. He held the table and took a few deep breaths before saying,” General Ming is not dead yet. He has made a great contribution and has returned to the capital alive. What did you say to the General’s wife when you went to the General Manor yesterday? The General’s wife couldn’t take it anymore and hanged herself…”

Zhou Furen was so shocked by this news that her three souls were scattered. Her body swayed and she could barely stand.” Great General Ming is not dead?”

Premier Zhou felt his heart ache, but he still held on and said,” The good daughter you raised bullied Ouyang Mingzhu and Ouyang Mingyue. Now, she even used poison ink to disfigure them. Do you know what will happen to her if she loses her morals?” Even we were implicated by her. And you, you forced the General’s wife to commit suicide. Do you know how the people of the capital will talk about you if news of this spreads today?”

Zhou Furen gritted her teeth.” Old Master, that slut was the one who made it up. I went to the General Manor and didn’t say anything. She just said that if she was me, she wouldn’t have come to visit. I didn’t realize that she actually had such thoughts at that time. She deliberately slandered me.”

Prime Minister Zhou felt his heart ache again. He was so angry that he did not know what to say. He pointed at Madam Zhou with a trembling finger.” You, you…”

“Why did 1 marry a stupid woman like you? You ruined three generations of my life.”

Prime Minister Zhou hated her so much that he couldn’t do anything about it. Usually, when he doted on that concubine, she would immediately take care of him. He didn’t see her being so stupid. Why was she so stupid in front of others?

Mrs. Zhou did not dare to refute him. She cried.” Old Master, I know I was wrong. The most important thing now is to think of a way. Qianqian, you have to save her.”

Prime Minister Zhou looked at Madam Zhou, who still did not know how serious the situation was and still wanted to save her daughter. Zhou Qianqian could not be saved after what she had done. It was already a great thing that she could protect the Prime Minister’s Estate.

A surge of anger surged up, and Prime Minister Zhou felt dizzy. He was about to be angered to death by this stupid woman.

“Old Master, what should we do?” Madam Zhou was extremely anxious.

Prime Minister Zhou sat down with difficulty while holding the table. After a long while, he said,” Let’s go. Come with me to the General’s Estate to apologize. That wicked daughter, pretend that she was never born. Whether she lives or dies depends on how the General’s Estate deals with her.

Sacrificing her can appease the General’s anger. If not, you can get lost with the good daughter you raised.”

“Master, Master wants to divorce his wife?” Madam Zhou looked at Prime Minister Zhou in disbelief.

They had been husband and wife for decades, and he actually wanted to divorce his wife?

Prime Minister Zhou looked coldly at Madam Zhou.” If you had educated your daughter properly, she wouldn’t have caused such a disaster. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself. You should pray that the General’s wife doesn’t die. If she didn’t die, this matter would be easier to resolve.”

Prime Minister Zhou got up and prepared to leave the residence. Before that, he naturally had to prepare a generous gift.

Mrs. Zhou was in a daze and her heart turned cold. She only regained her senses after a long time. She understood that she had suffered a huge setback. It was only at this moment that she understood what Hu Yu’s mockery meant.

Even if the Great General Ming did not return, the news of her almost forcing the General’s wife to death would spread throughout the capital. At that time, she would be an out-and-out vicious woman.

Of course, the General’s wife wouldn’t die. This was her plot.

However, those who did not know would not know that this was a conspiracy. People would only think that the General’s wife had managed to survive with great difficulty.

How vicious. Her scheming could not compare to a woman who was not even twenty years old.

Madam Zhou had suffered an unprecedented blow, and her spirit quickly became dispirited. For her daughter, she had no choice but to admit her mistake. The Prime Minister could give up on her daughter at any time, but she could not. That was the child she had given birth to. She had been running around for more than ten years, and she had watched her grow up little by little.

Madam Zhou’s heart was bleeding as she watched Prime Minister Zhou take so many expensive items.

This was the price she had to pay.

After getting into the carriage, Madam Zhou submissively sat to the side. Prime Minister Zhou’s face was cold. He had taken out so many good things. How could he not feel heartache? But there was no other way.

When they arrived at the General’s Mansion, Premier Zhou looked at the carriages parked outside and his expression turned a little ugly. They were late, but he could only go up to the guards and tell them that he was here to pay a visit.

The servant looked at them with disdain.” Sir, please wait a moment. My general is meeting a guest.”

They waited until the afternoon. A few colleagues came out with their wives and daughters. They were smiling. They had been forgiven, so there was no pressure in their hearts.

Prime Minister Zhou’s heart was in his throat. These people did not even greet them. His wife even instructed her daughter,” Don’t associate with those shady people in the future. They will lead you astray. Fortunately, General Ming doesn’t mind.”

Premier Zhou’s face darkened when he heard that..
