The Fourth Lady

Chapter 366 Zhangzhao's Ending (Ⅰ)

A few days later, the members of the Zhang clan found Zhangzhao was hung on a column beside the

gate. The letters on it read, "A small punishment for offending Junzhu- Murong Shizi".

The rumor that Zhangzhao tried to flirt with Su Qingyan was quickly known by everyone. All the people

were laughing at him. But they were more interested in what would happen to Zhangzhao next.

The first person came to Zhang Jingxuan's mind when he heard that his son offended Qingyan was

Jiuwangfei. (*TN: Jiuwangfei is the wife of the Ninth King). He thought maybe she was the only one

who could help his son now. Moreover, his only thought was to protect her son. After all, Zhangzhao

was his only son, and the only son of the nine generations of the Zhang clan.

"What did you say? Zhangzhao offended Junzhu Leyi? " Jiuwangfei looked at Zhang Jingxuan and

asked in confusion, "brother, did you see with your own eyes that Zhangzhao flirted Junzhu Leyi."

"No. But now all the people in the city have known this. Fortunately, Murong Shizi stopped him. It is

said that Junzhu cried loudly in the Jiangjunfu all day, saying she does not want to live anymore."

Beads of cold sweat trickled down Zhang Jingxuan's forehead. He glared at Jiuwangfei Qing and

explained resignedly.

"Has his majesty known about this?" Jiuwangfei anxiously said to Zhang Jingxuan, "it will be easy to

deal with the matter if the emperor still doesn't know it."

Zhang Jingxuan looked at Jiuwangfei and shook his head. "I don't know yet, but he will know it in a few

days."

Jiuwangfei took a breath of relief and said, "that's good. I'll deal with it. I will go to the Jiangjunfu

apologize to Junzhu. I hope she can forgive Zhangzhao." Lady Shun Qing looked at Zhang Jingxuan

and stated seriously.

"Sister, I advise you not to go." Zhang Jingxuan looked at Jiuwangfei and said helplessly, "I heard that

General Su is taking care of Junzhu all day long. If you go there now, you won't be rebuked."

"Humph!" Jiuwangfei snorted, "I don't think Suyun dare do anything to me." Jiuwangfei said scornfully,

"it's already embarrassing enough for me to make an apology to them by myself .By then, It's them who

will lose face, not Zhangzhao."

After that, Jiuwangfei asked the maid to prepare a gift for Qingyan.

"Sister, what if there's something bad happens to you? What should I do?" Looking at Jiuwangfei,

Zhang Jingxuan said reluctantly, "it was indeed Zhangzhao's fault."

Jiuwangfei took hold of Zhang Jingxuan's hand and said with a smile, "it's not a big deal. I can let

Zhangzhao marry his Junzhu." Then she left with her maids.

At the same time, when Qingyan heard the news, she smiled. She knew that Jiuwangfei would come

here and apologize before the emperor know it.

But Su Qingyan was not that kind of person who would change her mind so easily.

"Master, Miss, Jiuwangfei has arrived." One of Qilian Yvran's close maids said with a smile as she

looked at the three people in the room.

"Okay, let's get started." Qingyan looked at Qilian Yvran and Murong Jingxuan and said earnestly.

As soon as Suyun saw Jiuwangfei, he was unhappy, but he had to welcome her for the sake of the

Ninth King. "Jiuwangfei, what can I do for you?"

"General Su, I heard that your daughter was disturbed, so I prepared a small gift for her," Jiuwangfei

said with a smile as she looked at Suyun.

"Disturbed?" Looking at Jiuwangfei, Luobing said scornfully, "Jiuwangfei, don't you think it's too late to Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

talk about it now? How could this happen to an innocent girl like my daughter? Shouldn't you give us an

explanation? "

"How dare you!" Jiuwangfei said coldly, "I already condescend make an apology. You'd better accept

it."

At this moment, Zizhu rushed out and cried, "something's wrong. Miss said that she wanted to commit

suicide, and Shizi could not persuade her."

"If something happens to Yanyan, I will kill you all in all means." Suyun then hurried to catch up with

Luobing.

Jiuwangfei was also suspected of what had happened, so she followed them and wanted to know the

truth.

But before she entered the yard, she heard the voice of Qingyan. "Mother, let go of me. How can I live

after such things."

"Yanyan, listen to me. I'll ask the emperor to kill Zhangzhao right now." Looking at Qingyan, Qilian

Yvran felt her heart ache.

When they arrvied, they saw Qingyan standing not far away with a dagger, her hair disheveled. The

dagger was just against Qingyan's throat, as if it could hurt Qingyan in the next second.

"Yanyan, don't be silly. What should we do if something happens to you?" "You're our only daughter!"

said Suyun, looking at Qingyan.

Qingyan stood not far from them on her bare feet, holding a dagger against her throat. "Dad, mom, it's

all my fault. I didn't want to live in this world anymore. How could I live in this world after such a thing

happened?"

"Yanyan, put down the knife, okay? I have already punished Zhangzhao. " Murong Jingxuan looked

Qingyan as he walked towards her.

Qingyan stared at Murong Jingxuan, pointing a dagger at him. "Your Highness, stay there. If you dare

to come closer, I'll kill myself," Qingyan warned.

"No, Yanyan." Looking at Qingyan, Luobing covered her mouth and said, "silly girl, don't do stupid

things."

"Don't come close to me. Or I will kill myself." Qingyan waved the dagger and yelled at them

impatiently, "leave! I don't want to see you!"

"Isn't she Jiuwangfei? What is she doing here? " After hearing this, everyone looked at Jiuwangfei.

At that moment, Jiuwangfei was so ashamed that she wished she could find a hole to hide herself. She

looked at Qilian Yvran and said respectfully, "imperial concubine, greetings!"

"Sher what?" Looking at Jiuwangfei, Qilian Yvran said impatiently, "Jiuwangfei, do you want to see what

you have done to my daughter?"

"I don't think so." Jiuwangfei said as she bowed, "Your Highness, I didn't expect your highness to be

struck so hard."

"Don't worry. I will tell the matter to his majesty after I go back. His majesty will seek justice for

Yanyan."

Upon hearing this, Jiuwangfei didn't know what to say, especially in such a situation. Looking at

Qingyan, she could only sigh in silence. It seemed that Zhangzhao could not escape this time.
