From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 1023

There is definitely pressure.

It is hard for anyone to not be afraid in this situation.

In a hall, three ladies all wore imperial robes, phoenix crowns and bridal robes, sitting neatly.

Princess Qinshui and Princess Bishui sat on both sides, their faces were also very serious.

Below, Ziyuan, Qingyuan, Moxiang and other maids stood obediently. There were lights everywhere around, and Zhou Yuan felt blinded.

The moment he walked into the hall, he admitted that his legs were shaking.

"Hey, Prince, are you going home?"

Qu Ling took the lead and said, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were going home? The servants will serve you tea and water, take off your shoes and rub your shoulders."

Zhou Yuan coughed twice. Facing this situation, he had plenty of ways.

He looked directly at Ningyue and whispered, "Ningyue baby, are you tired? Big brother wants to talk to you."

Xue Ningyue's face suddenly turned red. She looked at the people around her and felt a little embarrassed, but she still whispered, "Big brother Zhou, we haven't talked to each other for a long time. Ningyue also wants to..."

"Sister Ningyue!"

Qu Ling was anxious on the spot: "We were talking just now, why did you change your mind!"

Xue Ningyue lowered her head and said, "Then, then Big brother didn't do anything wrong. He was just a little busy."

Qu Ling was furious and said, "He was busy as hell! It's obvious that someone has taken his soul away!"

At this point, she stood up, walked to Zhou Yuan, raised her chin and said, "King Wei, I order you to tear up my imperial robes!"

Zhao Jianjia turned pale with fear and said anxiously: "You didn't tell us there was this plot just now! It was clearly a trial for him, how come we are unlucky!"

Qu Ling chuckled and said: "What's the point of trying him with his thick skin? It's better to do something fancy. If you don't agree to the swimming pool, this is fine!"

"The eldest prince slays the dragon and returns to the palace, the third imperial edict captures the dragon to hold him accountable, and the second princess swallows the dragon to vent her anger. What a good plot, don't you like it?"

Zhao Jianjia glared at Zhou Yuan fiercely and shouted: "It's all your fault. Why did you have to provoke Qu girl when you could have provoked anyone else? Now I can't persuade you anymore, you can do it yourself!"

She stamped her feet in anger and turned away.

Princess Qinshui stood up and spread her hands, saying, "I knew that Miss Qu had no good intentions. She wanted to do something herself, so she took us in with her."

"Sister, what do you think?"

Princess Bishui said quickly, "I want to go and talk to Jianjia, I'll leave this to you."

Princess Qinshui raised her eyebrows and said, "How can you do this? You are a princess after all, what are you afraid of?"

Princess Bishui shook her head, indicating that she was still embarrassed.

But someone who came to rescue her would eventually appear. The voice of Aunt Kang came from outside - "Master, a few old men have come and are banging on the door now. They are aggressive and difficult to drive away."

"There is something important! I will leave first!"

Zhou Yuan turned around and ran away. He breathed a sigh of relief when he left the room.

He asked in confusion: "Blast the door? So aggressive? No one would mess with me like this right now..."

Madame Kang was from the inner guards and had seen a lot, so she whispered: "They are all marquises, the old nobles who followed the Duke of Zhenguo back then."

"Ah?"

Zhou Yuan was a little confused. What did that group of people want from me?

Could it be that they realized that I had played them in the court, and they couldn't figure it out, so they had to come over and say a few words?

I want to see how bold these old guys are!

"Let's go! I'll go and see!"

He strode to the main entrance square, only to see Mingrui had already opened the door. Seven or eight old men stood at the door, glaring at him.

Among them were Marquis Huwei and Marquis Guanyong.

But when they saw Zhou Yuan, they felt a little scared for a moment.

Huwei Hou gritted his teeth and said, "Who will go first?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yuan shouted, "Huwei Hou, what do you want from me?"

The others breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly pushed Huwei Hou forward.

Yongguan Hou said, "Huwei Hou! Old Ma! We are also from the sword and gun! Don't lose face!"

Another old man said, "Yes! Be energetic!"

Huwei Hou took a deep breath, shook his sleeves, snorted heavily, and strode forward.

Seeing his momentum, everyone couldn't help but praise him, "Good job!"

Huwei Hou walked into the palace, pointed at Zhou Yuan's nose and cursed, "Zhou Yuan! I'm a jerk! It's fine if you like old women in their forties or fifties! You also want to seduce Song Wu to marry that kind of old woman! Are you a human being!"

Zhou Yuan took several steps back and was shocked.

He originally thought that these nobles came for matters in the court, but they did not expect that they came for Song Wu's affairs.

The old Duke was gone, and Song Wu's uncles had already died for their country. He was now the only child of the Song family.

And these nobles were all the old Duke.The right-hand man of the Duke, the brother of life and death, they all regarded Song Wu as their own son and grandson.

As a result, Song Wu said that he wanted to marry the female official of the previous emperor, who was still 41 years old, and said that Zhou Yuan agreed.

These nobles were already at odds with each other because of the matter in the court, and now they heard this news, how could they bear it.

Zhou Yuan was scolded, but he couldn't say anything. He knew the relationship between Song Wu and these old nobles. The key thing was that he really didn't dare to quibble about this matter. His character was too hard. The damn Zhang Bailong labeled me. How to explain this!

He hurriedly said: "Marquis Huwei! Calm down! Song Wu's affairs have nothing to do with me. When he was with that old woman, I didn't even know him."

Marquis Huwei said angrily: "What's wrong with a young man liking an older woman? But whether to marry her is another matter!"

"If it weren't for your influence, would he marry a 40-year-old woman!"

"Zhou Yuan, you are so conscienceless! Don't think that I dare not scold you just because you are a prince! I have also been on the battlefield! I have shed blood for the country!"

After he finished speaking, he took off his clothes and revealed the scars all over his body.

Damn it, Song Wu, this little bastard, really wants to put the blame on me and let me take the blame for him.

But... Zhou Yuan thought of the advice and kindness of the old Duke in the past, and thought that Song Wu was his soldier after all, forget it... help him take the blame!

Zhou Yuan raised his head and said coldly: "Ma! I'm giving you face, don't refuse it!"

"And you old guys! You come here to show off in the middle of the night!"

"What's wrong with me liking people in their forties and fifties? What's wrong with Song Wu being influenced by me? What's wrong with you?"

"You've made me angry, and I've deceived your wife!"

"Anyway, I'm handsome, young, and famous. As long as I put in a little effort, think about whether your wife can withstand my attack!"

"Get out of here one by one! Otherwise, you'll all be in trouble!"

Madame Kang said in a low voice: "Prince, before you caused trouble, someone had already succeeded. You know that person, his surname is Wang."

Zhou Yuan took a breath of cold air when he heard this.

Lord Wangwang, you are really not afraid of death!

Don't let me take the blame for you at that time. I can't wash it off even if I jump into the Yellow River!

Zhou Yuan's words obviously angered these old guys, and they pointed at Zhou Yuan's nose and started to curse.

Zhou Yuan also took the risk and shouted: "Okay, okay! You don't want to leave, right? I'm leaving! I'm going to visit your Hu Weihou's house first! If you're not here, I'll see if your wife is here!"

He ran out directly!

Hu Weihou was startled and said anxiously: "Your Majesty! This can't be done!"
