The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 162 She's being immature, let her have her way.

The alley has returned to its former tranquility.

There were no matchmakers coming and going.

There was no heart-wrenching scream like the crow.

After treatment with expensive and rare medicinal herbs, Wei Zhao's health visibly improved.

He sat in a wheelchair, wearing a finely stitched cotton coat, with a blanket covering his knees, examining the secret letter sent from the capital.

Yu Tingwan brought out freshly baked pastries from the kitchen. As she passed Wei Zhao, she slowed her pace and couldn't help but glance at them.

can't read.

It's a code word again.

Wei Zhao was clearly facing away from her, but it was as if he had eyes in the back of his head.

He didn't turn around, his tone indifferent.

"The Crown Prince's health is deteriorating."

Yu Tingwan blinked.

What does it have to do with her?

Rumor has it that the capital is so prosperous that you can find gold on the ground. But these are all commoners of the Great Jin Dynasty. In the circumstances where Yu Tingwan lives, too many people cannot afford to eat and starve to death.

She had also met refugees.

The poor people, harmed by corrupt officials, cannot see the world; they only care about their own small plot of land and hope for good weather, free from natural disasters, and a good harvest next year.

The same applies to Yu Tingwan.

So what if the Crown Prince is in poor health?

But it's not her place to worry about it.

Even if the emperor were to pass away one day, the ascension of a new emperor would have nothing to do with her.

Yu Tingwan replied nonchalantly, "Oh."

Wei Zhao: "The Eastern Palace is in chaos. The imperial physician says the Crown Prince won't last three years."

Yu Tingwan munched on a pastry and said, "Oh."

Wei Zhao: "They intend to summon Elder Ge over there."

Yu Tingwan: "Oh."

and many more! !
She reacted!
The girl was immediately upset.

Wei Zhao feigned difficulty: "The imperial decree will arrive in Ze County soon."

He held a date in his hand: "What do you suggest we do?"

Yu Tingwan: ...

How does she know.

And! I already told you, don't discuss these things with her!
But really...

If Elder Ge leaves, what will happen to Wei Zhao?
Yu Tingwan frowned, feeling that this matter was too troublesome.

Wei Zhao said quietly, "We can't just kill them to cover it up."

Yu Tingwan remained silent.

That's not a good idea.

It sounds bloody.

Those people's lives aren't important.

But everyone has their own interests at heart.

If Ge Lao disobeys the imperial edict and refuses to go, it would be considered disrespectful to the royal family and a breach of the emperor's authority.

That's a capital offense.

Can Wei's army stop them?
If Ge Lao is forced to leave, then Wei Zhao will die.

Yu Tingwan was serious.

Everyone has selfish desires, and she was just an ordinary person.

What she cared about was Wei Zhao's life or death.

The girl was about to nod.

Wei Zhao: "That's utterly despicable."

The unscrupulous Yu Tingwan: ? ? ?
The pastries in Yu Tingwan's mouth no longer tasted sweet!

The girl's lips curled into a smile as she squinted at Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao had his back to her and was unaware of the girl's death stare. A slight, mocking twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Then tie them all up."

Wei Zhao spoke in a calm tone, but what he did was quite significant.

“Gag him and throw him into the woodshed of Ying Yin’s villa.”

Ying Yin?

The fifth prince?
Yu Tingwan: ?
The journey to the capital was not short; even at top speed, it would take more than half a month to make it back and forth.

Perhaps a month has passed. Emperor Yingqian and the Crown Prince have been waiting for those people to return for a long time.

Wei Zhao chuckled lightly: "It's clear that the Fifth Prince is a wolf in sheep's clothing, and his relationship with the Crown Prince is terrible."

"He also went to great lengths to prevent the crown prince from receiving treatment."

As for the future.

Ge Lao had already been living in seclusion before joining Wei's army. Wei Zhao had ample time to fabricate the illusion that he had left Ze County.

The royal family cannot be found.

Let the next batch of people delivering imperial edicts search all over the Great Jin Dynasty.

Yu Tingwan: "This..."

"A fight is bound to break out."

Wei Zhao turned to look at her: "The two parties have long been engaged in open and covert struggles."

If the royal family were to discover the villa, it would be quite a spectacle.

If it can't be found.

Wei Zhao will help.

Wei Zhao sighed, "The Fifth Prince is truly wicked."

When Ying Yin was away from home, he showed the Crown Prince the utmost respect.

But the people in the palace are all shrewd and calculating.

Whether the respect shown was genuine or feigned is unknown. Some might think that Ying Yin wouldn't do such a thing.

But would the crown prince believe it?

What did the emperors think?

Wei Zhao felt no burden whatsoever.

After all, he had done this many times before.

Wei Zhao smiled: "He is, after all, my half-brother."

"How could someone do such a heinous thing for the sake of ambition?"

Yu Tingwan: ? ? ?

That's really... even more shameless than her.

Yu Tingwan was filled with worry.

Perhaps he's been influenced by her after spending so much time together.

Fu Meng came out of the room at this time.

It no longer needs to reflect on its mistakes.

Fu Meng proudly raised its head, its fur appearing exceptionally fluffy in the light.

I used to see Yu Tingwan and she was afraid.

At this moment...

As it drew closer, the girl couldn't resist reaching out and grabbing a handful.

Fu Meng was fierce and was about to yell at her.

then……

Wei Zhao looked over.

Fu Meng: ...

It crouched down in front of Wei Zhao, opened its mouth and took the secret letter from his hand after he finished reading it.

It was thrown into the brazier and destroyed.

Flames erupted, engulfing the secret message.

Fu Meng stared wide-eyed, not blinking.

Even after the letter had completely turned to ashes, Yan Jing didn't forget to poke at it with a tree trunk to confirm its presence.

Having done all that, Fu Meng sidled up to Wei Zhao and gave Yu Tingwan a disdainful look.

It was still there, watching over the medicine that came in the morning!
What was Yu Tingwan doing at that time?
She ran off to play next door!
Before setting off, I reminded it not to be lazy.

Pooh!
They were all servants who attended to Wei Zhao.

Rong Di went to attend to his work.

Shunzi went to get busy.

As a tiger serving its master, it was also given important responsibilities!
Look at Yu Tingwan.

There's no sign of life at all!

When Fu Meng met Wei Zhao, he showed no sign of blaming him.

Fu Meng wasn't angry; instead, he felt a sense of schadenfreude.

One day! The arrogant Yu Tingwan will cry!

The master never keeps useless people, or tigers, around!
Just as she was thinking this, Yu Tingwan walked over.

Yu Tingwan: "Behave yourself. This position is mine."

ridiculous!

Who cares about you?

They have no idea of ​​their own capabilities.

Fu Meng ignored her.

Wei Zhao patted his head.

"She's being immature, let her have her way."

Fu Meng: ?

Does that mean it's sensible?
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Shouzhong and his wife entered Zexian County around noon.

After saying goodbye to them, Shunzi went into the alley ahead of them and informed Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao did not react.

Yu Tingwan reacted strongly.

I'm finally back!!!
She ran out of the yard.

They quickly turned back and pushed Wei Zhao up.

Fu Meng was about to chase after him.

Wei Zhao said to Shunzi, "Take Fu Meng to your place."

Fu Meng: !!!
It was about to erupt.

Wei Zhao continued, "You've worked hard these past few days. Go back and rest first, and then choose an auspicious time to send Elder Ge off."

"Don't forget to say goodbye at the post station first."

We need to make sure all the officials at the post station know that Old Ge has left.

leave?

The general is here, where is Elder Ge going?
Shunzi has always been clever.

He quickly figured out the meaning behind this departure.

"Yes."

Wei Zhao then looked at Fu Meng, who was radiating anger.

"Keep a close eye on Shunzi."

Fu Meng is no longer angry.

It's arrogant again!
It has been entrusted with an important task once again!

Fu Mengchong gave Shunzi a wink.

go!
Don't let it rush you!

Don't even think about slacking off!
