Poor Family

Under the heavy pressure of the emperor, the Ming government still refused the matchmaker invited by the sixth prince, which made the sixth prince lose face.

"Lao Liu is really useless. With his father backing him, he can't even take down the Duke of Ming's mansion. Just like that, he still jumps up and down all day like a monkey."

"Haha, and it's still a monkey with a green hat."

"If you want me to say, Chu Yao gave the Sixth Prince a cuckold, and the Sixth Prince put it on for him too."

After coming down to court, the third and fifth princes followed behind the prince, laughing wantonly and talking about the latest news.

The sixth prince was not far behind them, he heard all the teasing from the three of them, and his complexion instantly turned black as if it was the bottom of a pot.

Soon, the crown prince separated from the third and fifth princes, and went to the East Palace alone.

When we parted, the prince glanced at the gloomy sixth prince, with anticipation in his eyes.

Lao Liu must not let him down!

Thinking of Chu Yao, the prince's eyes were full of evil.

Now he and Chu Yao are immortal.

Chu Yao is small-minded. Because of his friendship with Chu Xuan, he bullied this guy a lot when he was young. Now that he has become the commander of the Supervision Department, he will definitely find an opportunity to take revenge on him.

Instead of being beaten passively in the future, it is better to strike first.

It's a pity that the last time Princess Beiyan got married, that guy escaped.

Thinking of Chu Yao's way of getting out of trouble, the prince was even more angry. When he was angry, his daughter didn't know what to do. He was the prince of a country. Even if he was a concubine, it would be a great blessing.

He was even more angry that Chu Yao didn't take him seriously, and married the daughter of the Shi family with great fanfare, which made him lose face.

If the revenge of seizing a concubine can be tolerated, when he ascends the throne in the future, will all the ministers still submit to him?

Chu Yao had to die, and he had to die in his hands!

The prince returned to the East Palace with a sullen face, and after dealing with official duties for a while, an eunuch came to report.

"Your Highness, after the Sixth Prince returned to the mansion, he immediately sent secret guards to inquire about the whereabouts of the third wife of Prince Rong's Mansion."

Hearing this, the corner of the prince's mouth curled up, and a fierce light shone in his eyes.

Shi Shi, Shi Shi, since you don't think highly of the concubine position of the crown prince, then be a slut that everyone despises.

Wei Yichen happened to come to the prince and heard the eunuch's reply. Seeing that the prince greeted him for tea in a good mood, he hesitated for a while and said: "The four children of Shi Zhenghe are all highly skilled in martial arts, and Mrs. Shi is also the apprentice of the old man Tianchi. Six The prince may not succeed."

The prince smiled: "Don't underestimate the sixth younger brother, Dongfang Yunrong is the clan's wife and daughter-in-law carefully cultivated by the Duke of Ming. She has been tricked, let alone the Shi family."

"Take a step back, even if you fail, it's okay, as long as they appear alone and widowed in the same place, some people will prove that they are doing their own thing."

He is not the only one who hates and fears Chu Yao.

After all, it wasn't such an important matter, Wei Yichen didn't say any more, and discussed other matters with the prince.

Rongwang Mansion

After Shi Fuxin was free, she had more time to think about Chu Yao. It had been a few days since the last time she played dice, and Shi Fuxin was still a little uncomfortable.

Especially in the past few days, Chu Yao lived in the mansion, and came over to eat with her every once in a while. Seeing the victorious rooster made her toothache.

Mother Leng came in with the bird's nest soup, and saw Shi Fuxin was distracted, and stepped forward with a smile: "Madam, what are you thinking?"

Shi Fuxin took the bird's nest soup: "I'm thinking about how to win Chu Yao."

Mother Leng saw that Shi Fuxin had finally started to take care of Chu Yao, and she was very relieved in her heart, and said with a smile: "Men are actually like children, as long as they make them happy, they will do whatever they want."

Shi Fuxin put down the bowl: "It's not easy to make Chu Yao happy. Eating, drinking and having fun can bring people short-term happiness, but he understands these aspects better than me."

Mother Leng thought for a while and said, "Then think about something else, and do something that the third master has never experienced before."

Shi Fuxin shook her head: "These actions can only bring superficial happiness. I can do it, and others can do it too. What I hope is that with me, Chu Yao can get something from the heart that I can't get from others. happy."

"Otherwise, if Chu Yao is happy with another person, then I am not unique to him, and the relationship between us is not indestructible."

Mother Leng was silent: "Madam's idea is a bit difficult to realize."

Shi Fuxin laughed and said: "If it was easy, anyone could do it, and a man wouldn't have three wives and four concubines and love each other, thinking that wild flowers are more fragrant than home flowers."

Mother Leng looked at Shi Fuxin: "Ma'am, is there a way?"

Shi Fuxin shook her head: "We still need to get in touch with Chu Yao first, and then we can understand him. If we want to make him really happy, we must first understand what he really needs."

Mother Leng smiled and said, "Madam and Third Master will be married for a year soon, so we really should get in touch more."

Shi Fuxin: "It's been a year. Hey, I found that most of my impressions of Chu Yao are still before getting married. After getting married, my understanding of him hasn't increased much. What a dereliction of duty!"

In the following days, Shi Fuxin obviously paid more attention to Chu Yao.

Pay attention to when he returns home and when he leaves; pay attention to what he likes to eat and drink, what color and style of clothes he likes, and also start to care about his circle of friends.

Such behavior fell into Chu Yao's eyes, but it completely changed.

Because he wanted to investigate the Jiang Hu person who suddenly appeared, Chu Yao had been sending people to watch Shi Fuxin and the people around her, probably because of guilty conscience, Chu Yao felt that Shi Fuxin's sudden change might be because he discovered that he was spying on her , So she also began to monitor him.

In this regard, Chu Yao was not unhappy at all, on the contrary, he was eager to try.

To be honest, when Shi Liu clings to him and gets close to him, he really can't stand it, but if he wants to wrestle with him, he really doesn't mind fighting her.

Hmph, so what if you have high martial arts skills, in the capital, no matter how strong an elephant is, it will be killed by thousands of ants swarming in.

Therefore, Chu Yao enthusiastically threw himself into the "competition with Shi Fuxin" in his fantasy, facing Shi Fuxin's inquiries and closeness, he would not refuse anyone who came, and he looked like he didn't know anything .

As for Shi Fuxin, seeing that Chu Yao was willing to cooperate, she was also relieved. After all, things like feelings still have to go in both directions. It would be boring for her to sing a one-man show alone.

How to get along with a person like Chu Yao who is not easy to deliver sincerity, Shi Fuxin really spent a lot of brainpower.

In her opinion, the relationship between people should always be based on trust.

Therefore, the first thing she has to do is to gain Chu Yao's trust.

At the dinner table, while eating casually, Shi Fuxin tilted her head to look at Chu Yao, who just buried her head in her meal without saying a word.

Chu Yao was a little irritated by her, and couldn't help but said: "I told you everything I like to eat and drink, what else do you want to know?"

Shi Fuxin looked at him: "Master, I know what you like to eat and drink, but why don't you ask me what I like to eat and drink?"

"Don't you want to know me at all?"

Chu Yao was stunned.

Does he need to ask these?

Seeing Shi Fuxin hang her head injured, Chu Yao felt a little guilty, thinking of Shiliu who surrounded him asking questions, but he never asked her preferences, at this moment he also felt It seems that I am really a little outrageous.

"I don't want to know you, I just."

He just didn't expect it!

In his opinion, everything in Shiliu was under his surveillance, and there was really no need for him to ask any more questions.

"Then what do you like to eat?"

Hearing Chu Yao's question, Shi Fuxin immediately smiled: "I like to eat the Longjing shrimp in front of you."

Chu Yao nodded: "Okay, I will write it down."

After finishing speaking, when Fuxin was still looking at her, Chu Yao was really puzzled.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, Chu Yao thought of something, picked up the serving chopsticks and put a few Longjing shrimps into Shi Fuxin's bowl.

Sure enough, Shi Fuxin smiled, and put some of Chu Yao's food into his bowl with the serving chopsticks: "What is a tacit understanding? It's just a tacit understanding born of mutual understanding."

"I know my husband's preferences; my husband also knows my preferences. We know each other well, and we can have a good understanding in the future."

Hearing this, Chu Yao's eyes flickered a little.

Shiliu what do you want to do?

If you want to have a tacit understanding with him, is it because you want to attack your heart?

When Chu Yao looked at Shi Fuxin, his eyes became a little confused, but seeing her eating happily again, he was secretly relieved.

He found that facing the pitiful Shi Liu, he really couldn't stand it. She should be stronger and more aggressive. She would not burden him psychologically when dealing with her like that.

Just when Chu Yao thought that Shi Fuxin had stopped, who would have heard her say out of nowhere, "Sir, tell me, what should I do to truly enter your heart?" '

When Chu Yao heard this, he squirted out the unswallowed food from his mouth.

He didn't expect his reaction to be so big, but Shi Liu's words were like a lightning strike, hitting his heart that had been lonely for many years.

In order to hide the panic in his heart, Chu Yao could only lower his head to tidy up his appearance, but at this time he couldn't find the handkerchief.

Shi Fuxin handed over her handkerchief, and when she saw Chu Yao pick it up, she quickly wiped her face until she blushed, "Slow down, I won't despise you."

Chu Yao's wiping hand paused for a moment, then suddenly looked at Shi Fuxin: "I have a bad reputation, have you really never disliked me?"

Shi Fuxin was a little surprised by Chu Yao's question, but soon affirmed, "No."

Chu Yao obviously didn't believe it, and sneered: "Lie, if you really didn't dislike me, then when I wanted to marry you, you wouldn't hesitate. In the end, if Gongsun Ming didn't choose you, You probably don't like me either, do you?"

Shi Fuxin was surprised by Chu Yao's concern about this matter, and looked straight into his eyes: "I have never disliked you because of your poor reputation, and I am quite satisfied with you."

"However, I really don't want to marry you because of your family background."

Chu Yao: "."

Shi Fuxin's words were straightforward and Chicheng, he really didn't know how to respond.

Then it was Shi Fuxin's turn to ask: "I don't have a good reputation, what about you, have you ever disliked me?"

Chu Yao's eyes faltered for a moment: "Why do you ask what I ask?"

Shi Fuxin took it for granted: "Because we are husband and wife, husband and wife should respect each other equally."

Chu Yao frowned.

What is equality?

What is mutual weight?

Although he doesn't like women who are ignorant of reading the three and four virtues, he still feels that the basic principles of ethics must be followed.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Having said all this, Shi Fuxin decided to argue with Chu Yao: "Do you think it's unreasonable? Do you think it's normal for the husband to be above and the wife to be below?"

Chu Yao: "It's been like this throughout the ages."

Shi Fuxin: "Is what most people practice must be right?"

Chu Yao: "Follow everyone, and you will never make a big mistake."

Shi Fuxin: "Really, at the cost of sacrificing the happiness of a lifetime, you have to join forces?"

Chu Yao frowned: "Why are you sacrificing happiness? Isn't everyone living a good life? Can't you see so many happy families?"

Shi Fuxin said directly: "Father, queen, mother and concubine, husband is above and wife is below, do you think mother and concubine are happy?"

Chu Yao stopped talking.

Shi Fuxin continued: "As for me, I don't want to argue with you about ethics, let's talk purely from the point of view of emotion."

"If the husband and wife are unequal, one is superior and the other is inferior, the superior will inevitably oppress the subordinate, the superior will be happy, but what about the inferior?"

"The powerlessness and helplessness of being oppressed by others, the dilemma of not being able to control everything by yourself, and the days when you have to look at people's faces every day, do you feel happy?"

Chu Yao was really shocked. If it was someone else, he might not be able to empathize with him, but he has encountered these, and he can really understand the difficulties of the lower among the six.

"How can a person who is being bullied have feelings for someone who will bully him? It's just that the situation forced him to bow his head."

"happiness?"

"It's all about living with a partner."

Seeing that Chu Yao didn't speak, Shi Fuxin said again: "If you really think that what I said is wrong, you can seriously go and have a look at each family to see if most of the masters and wives of the family are basically at odds with each other. and?"

Chu Yao pursed his lips tightly.

There is no need to ask, there are a lot of files in the supervisory department's treasury that lead to the decline of the family due to the feud between husband and wife.

Decline is still a good result, some extreme, even directly ransacked family.

Shi Fuxin: "We are all human, why should we be overwhelmed by others? You show me respect, and I will return your respect."

Chu Yao was still not persuaded: "You take it for granted, you want to be fair, but how can there be absolute fairness in the world? A woman from a small family married into a noble family and took advantage of it. Where does she have the confidence to demand equality with her husband?"

Shi Fuxin didn't know how much his words were alluding to the family gap between them, and looked into his eyes: "You and I, from the moment you have the idea of ​​marrying me, I am enough to match you, otherwise, I can't get into your eyes, can I?"

"From the perspective of family background, Wuchang Bo's Mansion is indeed inferior to Prince Rong's Mansion, but apart from that, you should have obtained some other things that are very important to you from me, right?"

"The value of a person, in addition to things in the worldly sense, also has human ability."

"For example, you, regardless of your identity, you are enough to make people's hearts beat, and people are willing to give up something so that you will always be by their side."

"A man who respects himself and others always seeks something from a woman, so he will marry her into the door. You shouldn't refute this, right?"

"Since everyone gets what they need, why shouldn't they be equal and respect each other?"

Chu Yao's eyebrows were a little loose, but he still refused to bow his head. After dawdling for a while, he said, "I can't say no to you."

After speaking, he got up and left.

Shi Fuxin quickly stopped him: "Chu Yao, you have your own thoughts, I have mine, we can argue, speak out what you have in mind, don't hold it in your heart, or I won't will know what you think."

"I'm telling you this today, not to change your mind, but just to let you listen to my mind. I am a real person, not the wife you marry home as a display tool. Don't keep thinking about things Things want to overwhelm me."

Chu Yao: "I didn't want to overwhelm you."

Shi Fuxin immediately 'cut': "No, what are you doing now? Isn't it because you can't tell me, and you don't want to bow your head, and you want to run away from embarrassment?"

"If you really don't want to overwhelm me, you won't feel ashamed that you can't say no to me."

Chu Yao looked at Shi Fuxin with a complicated expression, but also a little hard to say: "Shiliu, I found out that your most powerful weapon is your mouth."

"If only I knew you were like this"

Shi Fuxin cut off the conversation, raised her chin: "What will happen to you?"

Chu Yao moved his mouth: "I'm going to get busy." After finishing speaking, he left the dining room without looking back.

Shi Fuxin 'hummed' at his back: "Fortunately, I thought you were fearless. If I knew you were so cowardly, I would have run away if I couldn't say it."

He didn't say anything after that, but he managed to make Chu Yao stagger.

At the door of the study, Sui Feng couldn't help but shake his head as he watched Chu Yao back again in defeat.

The madam is right, the third master is a bit cowardly.

If you can't say it, you can't say it, can you still beat it? Subdue Madam directly by force, and everything will be settled.

Hey, the third master is a silver pewter gun head!
