Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 159 The Emperor has sent an edict!

The second lady Zhen Mi bowed to Yuan Shao and expressed her gratitude.

Yuan Shao's eyes did not fall directly on the second lady Zhen Mi, but on Zhang Sui who was standing next to the second lady, and asked with concern: "How are you doing recently?"

"I heard that the training was very hard."

"Most people's butts are worn out."

Zhang Sui clasped his fists and said, "General, this is what we should do."

Yuan Shao was very satisfied with Zhang Sui's answer, and then he said to the second lady Zhen Mi: "Bo Cheng is from your Zhen family."

"Bocheng has a bright future."

"It's all thanks to your Zhen family's good education."

Second Miss Zhen Mi said seriously: "Thank you for your cultivation, General!"

Yuan Shao picked up the hot tea on the table, took a sip, and then asked, "How is your mother?"

"It's really not easy for a weak woman like your mother to support such a large Zhen family."

Although he had already learned from his second son and third daughter that his wife had a lover.

But he didn't give up.

How could something I had been looking forward to for so long just disappear like that?
Today he must get the truth out of the second daughter of the Zhen family!
The second young lady Zhen Mi said honestly: "Thanks to the general's blessing, my mother is doing well."

Yuan Shao hesitated for a moment, forced a smile, and asked tentatively: "I have heard some rumors, I don't know whether they are true or not."

"Of course, I have no intention of interfering with your Zhen family."

"The Zhen family, that's the family I've always respected."

"Your ancestor Zhen Han was an outstanding contributor to the Han Dynasty and is worthy of my respect."

"Now that your father has unfortunately passed away, if there is anything I can do to help, I would like to do my best."

"The descendants of meritorious officials are worthy of our protection and blessing."

The second young lady Zhen Mi was moved and said, "I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the Zhen family for the general's kindness."

"All future generations of my Zhen family will remember the general's kindness."

"General, feel free to ask me anything."

Yuan Shao then whispered, "I heard that your mother seems to have a lover? And, have they had physical contact?"

The second lady Zhen Mi was completely confused.

When did my mother have a lover?

Is there any skin-to-skin contact?
I was with my mother all day and didn’t even know it!

How come the governor who was far away in Yecheng knew about it?
Just as I was shocked, someone pulled down one of my sleeves.

Second Miss Zhen Mi glanced over from the corner of her eye.

It’s Zhang Sui.

Zhang Sui nodded at her imperceptibly.

Second Miss Zhen Mi: “.”

This scoundrel seems to know the secret?

Just nod and agree first!

My mother had told me before that the governor had written to her, wanting to take her as a concubine and then annex the Zhen family.

My mother didn't want to become the governor's concubine.

At this time, it is definitely better to agree than to deny.

The second lady Zhen Mi hummed.

Yuan Shao looked a little unhappy and said, "Second Miss Zhen, you haven't even married yet, how come your mother has a lover, and has had physical contact with him?"

The second lady Zhen Mi replied: "General, these things are really not fair."

"But then again, my father has passed away for many years, and my mother has been supporting the Zhen family alone."

"My mother doesn't have much beauty left now."

"As a child, how could we bear to see her suffer alone for the rest of her life?"

"Besides, my second brother mentioned this to us."

"My second brother also said that as children, we cannot watch our mother's hair turn gray."

"Because this is a family matter after all, we have not announced it to the public."

"I wonder how the general learned this?"

When Yuan Shao saw that the second lady Zhen Mi admitted it, he felt like someone stabbed him in the heart with a knife.

Pity!
I heard that Mrs. Zhen is as pretty as Mrs. Liu.

The most important thing is that Mrs. Zhen is much more capable than Mrs. Liu. She is a weak woman, but she can support the entire Zhen family, which is exactly what she needs.

If he marries her, then the Zhen family will be his.

Although the Zhen family has declined, they still have many properties.

She can also help out with the backyard.

He had planned this a few years ago.

However, the situation was unstable at that time, and he was surrounded by enemies: Gongsun Zan, Qu Yi, Heishan Zhang Yan and others.

So he put it aside.

Unexpectedly, this postponement would lead to something going wrong.

However, Yuan Shao was still unwilling to give in and asked, "Who is that sweetheart?"

The second lady Zhen Mi had no idea at all.

Naturally, I can’t tell.

I definitely can’t tell.

The second young lady Zhen Mi said, "Mother actually talked to us children about this, but my second brother refused. He said that as long as my mother does not cause any trouble for the Zhen family and is not known to outsiders, we children will not ask about this kind of thing."

"Of course, when mother wants to remarry, we will give her a generous dowry to thank her for her efforts over the years."

Seeing that the second lady Zhen Mi was unwilling to speak, Yuan Shao could only close his eyes.

The wood is done.

Moreover, Hebei is not yet stable.

I can't make a fuss over a woman who has slept with other men.

Not worth it.

Yuan Shao sighed.

He was no longer in the mood to talk to the second lady, Zhen Mi.

He was extremely disappointed with the Wuji Zhen family.

Mrs. Zhen was slept with by someone.

The second daughter of the Zhen family is a woman who looks weak and gentle on the outside, but is actually willful and capricious.

Whether it is Madam Zhen or the second daughter of the Zhen family, they are not suitable for their Yuan family.

Just then, someone came in hurriedly from outside.

It turned out to be the military supervisor Ju Su.

While still outside, Ju Su said, "Something big has happened, my lord. The emperor has sent an imperial edict from Chang'an."

When Yuan Shao saw Ju Su coming, he felt as if he had been pardoned.

He just didn't want to talk to the second lady Zhen Mi anymore.

Yuan Shao stood up and said to the second young lady Zhen Mi: "Second young lady of the Zhen family, I have something else to do, so I won't keep you here any longer!"

Second Miss Zhen Mi hurriedly stood up and said, "General, I'm sorry to bother you!"

After saying that, he called on Hongyu and Zhang Sui to leave quickly.

The three of them left the governor's mansion.

The servants had already unloaded the gifts from the carriage.

A group of people got on the carriage.

Second Miss Zhen Mi looked through the car window at the governor's residence and wondered, "It feels very strange today."

Looking at Zhang Sui, the second lady Zhen Mi asked, "Who was the first man to walk past us?"

Zhang Sui smiled and said, "It's the second son Yuan Xi."

Second Miss Zhen Mi looked at Zhang Sui and smiled, narrowing her eyes and saying, "So, you were the one who spread the news that mother had a lover and had physical contact with him?"

Zhang Sui nodded quickly.

But, ma’am, this is true.

She not only has a lover, but also a physical one.

That sweetheart is me, your father!
The second lady Zhen Mi reached out and pinched Zhang Sui's arm.

Zhang Sui hissed, "Second Miss, what are you doing?"

Second Miss Zhen Mi said sullenly, "So, what did you do to the Second Young Master and the Third Young Master? I was also wondering why they looked at me with such disgust!"

Zhang Sui asked in return, "Then the Second Miss wants to marry the Second Young Master as fate has it?"

The second lady Zhen Mi rolled her eyes.
