The waste prince is so fierce

Chapter 144: Every Man for Himself

Zhao Wanru lowered her head and sipped her tea quietly, looking gentle and peaceful.

On the other hand, Zhao Wanqing stared at her with an unhappy look on her face and said, "Are you really engaged to Master Yun?!"

Zhao Wanru sighed and said, "Sister, these things are not for me to decide."

"Don't tell me this! You clearly know that I have always liked Master Yun. Why did you agree when Dad told you?"

After hearing this, Zhao Wanru sighed.

She raised her eyelids, looked at Zhao Wanqing, and said softly: "Sister, you should know that before my mother died, she asked me to take care of you. I am the only blood of the Zhao family. If not for this, my mother would not have entrusted you to me."

Zhao Wanqing frowned and said, "But why did you marry Mr. Yun when you could marry anyone else? Isn't that cheating me?"

Zhao Wanru shook her head and said, "I didn't force Mr. Yun."

After a pause, she continued, "Mr. Yun is also a man who values ​​friendship. Since he promised to marry me, he will definitely fulfill his promise. Besides, this is the order of my parents and the words of the matchmaker."

Zhao Wanqing curled her lips, not making any comment, and said, "But I don't like this marriage, can you refuse it?"

Zhao Wanru sighed helplessly and said, "Sister, marriage is decided by parents and matchmakers, we are not entitled to act willfully. Besides, there is no love between us and Master Yun, and forcing us to be together would be torture for both of us."

Zhao Wanqing sneered and said sarcastically: "What you said sounds very high-sounding, but do you really think so?"

Zhao Wanqing secretly despised Zhao Wanru in her heart.

A true marriage is based on love.

What a pity... Zhao Wanru not only has no feelings, but has also long been in love with someone else. She doesn't love Master Yun at all, and even hates him.

Moreover, this marriage was advocated by the Zhao family, and she had no choice at all.

Zhao Wanru lowered her head and was silent for a while before she said faintly, "Sister, let's not talk about this matter."

"Don't mention it? You make it sound so easy."

Zhao Wanqing glared at Zhao Wanru and said through gritted teeth, "If you hadn't taken the initiative, how could I have been ridiculed?"

Zhao Wanru lowered her head and did not argue, but her eyes were red.

After a long time, Zhao Wanqing took a deep breath and suppressed the anger surging in her chest.

"Forget it, it has already happened, and blaming you will not help. However, I hope that if you encounter problems in the future, you can consider me first." Zhao Wanqing's tone softened.

After all, she and Zhao Wanru are sisters. Even if their bones are broken, their blood relationship cannot be changed in any way.

"Yeah." Zhao Wanru nodded slightly.

"Let me ask you, what's the name of the girl who ambushed the commander-in-chief's mansion you mentioned just now?" Zhao Wanqing changed the subject and asked.

"Tang Jinyu!" Zhao Wanru said.

When Zhao Wanqing heard this, a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Tang Jinyu, surnamed Tang.

"Could it be? Is she the legitimate daughter of that family?"

Zhao Wanru nodded, that's right!

"No way! Wasn't that family confiscated by the previous governor a long time ago? How could someone still be alive?"

"I don't know the specifics, but Tang Jinyu's last name is Tang."

"The Tang family..."

Zhao Wanqing frowned and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, she looked up at Zhao Wanru and said, "Wanru, let's put this matter aside for now. I'm too tired recently and don't want to care about it anymore."

Zhao Wanru nodded.

"By the way, what do you want to talk to me about?" Zhao Wanqing asked.

"I went to the Commander-in-Chief's residence last night, but unfortunately the guards there were tight, so I couldn't find out the truth about Master Yun, let alone save him." Zhao Wanru said distressedly, "Sister, why don't you go and try to see if you can help."

They are both the eldest daughters of the Zhao family. Zhao Wanqi is a concubine's daughter, but Zhao Wanqing is the apple of the Zhao family's eye and is very much loved.

"Me?" Zhao Wanqing frowned slightly, revealing a hesitant expression.

Zhao Wanru held her hand and urged, "Sister, please give it a try."

Zhao Wanqing sighed and said, "Okay."

Zhao Wanqing stood up and said goodbye: "Then wait for my news."

After saying that, he opened the door and left the room.

Inside the house, Zhao Wanru sat alone on a chair.

She clenched her fists tightly, bit her teeth lightly, and there was a gleam of determination in her eyes.

"Mr. Yun, you belong to me and will never belong to her!"

Zhao Wanru murmured in a low voice.

"Don't you like me, sister?"

"Just let me use you to piss her off, so that my sister will give up."

"Don't worry, I will definitely treat you very well in the future and make up for what I have owed you over the years."

……

Zhao Wanqing returned to her boudoir, changed into a moon-white dress, then walked out of the room and headed towards the main hall where Mr. Zhao lived.

"Grandfather, I want to leave the house for a while, please allow me."

Outside the main hall, Zhao Wanqing bowed respectfully.

A majestic voice came from the hall: "Girl, where did you learn so many rules? Come in quickly, Grandfather has something to discuss with you."

Hearing this, Zhao Wanqing stepped into the main hall, bowed to Old Man Zhao, and said, "Grandson greets grandfather."

Mr. Zhao waved his hand and motioned for her to sit on the chair.

He looked at Zhao Wanqing for a few times and said with satisfaction: "You look a little off today, is it because of the marriage?"

"No." Zhao Wanqing shook her head.

"No? Then why did you suddenly want to leave the house today?"

Zhao Wanqing explained, "I bought a piece of wasteland in the western suburbs of the city last night and planned to grow fruits and vegetables, so I planned to go out for a walk."

Mr. Zhao was surprised and asked, "You want to farm?"

"Ah."

Zhao Wanqing nodded, and then, as if she had thought of something, she frowned and said, "By the way, Grandfather, I want to ask you, does our family's business include fruit transportation?"

Mr. Zhao asked in surprise: "Why do you suddenly think of asking this?"

Zhao Wanqing explained, "A few days ago, I heard neighbors talking about how a batch of fresh fruits are delivered to the largest city in Nanyang County every three to five days. These fruits can not only be sold for money, but also used as snacks. I think it's interesting, so I want to try growing some."

"If you want to plant it, I can instruct the housekeeper to do as you say." Old Master Zhao nodded and said.

"Thank you Grandpa."

……

The headquarters of the commander-in-chief.

A secluded courtyard.

A young girl was moving among them, holding a short knife in her hand, dancing rapidly. Her figure was graceful, her steps were agile, and her arms seemed to whistle when they moved, making it hard to defend against.

"boom!"

She turned her wrist and the dagger fell on the wall.

Suddenly, the wall sank a bit.

"Huchihuchi..."

The girl was breathing heavily, her cheeks flushed, and she was obviously exhausted.

"Although this set of sword techniques is simple, it consumes a lot of physical strength." The girl stopped to rest, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and muttered to herself, "With my current strength, I can only barely maintain the sword technique for about two incense sticks."
