Chapter 173: Weng's Secret Talk
"Ah, no need, I just didn't have a good rest last night, and I was a little distracted for a while. Just have a good rest tonight."
"Okay, we have been there for a long time. I think the food has been prepared almost all the time. I think it's better to go out and don't let them wait for a long time." Zhao Li said
After hearing this, Zhang Sheng naturally had no objection. After all, he was unwilling to do so and always stayed with his cheap father-in-law.
So he agreed happily, followed his father-in-law and left the study room and went to the front hall to have dinner. By the time they arrived, the banquet was almost ready.
I had a very happy meal, at least on the surface, when the banquet ended, Zhang Sheng and his wife got on the carriage back.
In the carriage when he went back, Zhang Shengdao, "Madam, you are in a bad mood, but you think of my deceased mother-in-law?"
"Well, official, I do miss my mother a little. I remember when I was a child, my mother's biggest wish was to watch me marry happily."
"Now I am married, not only the emperor gave me marriage, but also the golden hairpin given by the queen is already very glorious. Unfortunately, she can't see it." Zhao Xiner said
After hearing this, Zhang Sheng clenched his wife's hand with some pain and said, "Madam, don't be sad. I believe my mother-in-law's spirit in heaven, and I don't want you to be so sad."
"Don't worry, life is still long, good days are coming, and we will get better and better in the future." After Zhang Sheng said that, he hugged his wife in his arms.
At this time, Zhao Xiner also let go of her sadness and hid in the arms of her own officials with peace of mind.
I don’t know how long it took, but the voice of the maid outside broke the calm. It turned out that she had returned to the door of her mansion.
Zhang Sheng helped his wife get off the carriage, then walked towards the room, and soon they returned to the room.
"Madam, I've been struggling for a day today and I'm tired enough. Do you think we are?" Zhang Sheng said
"Ah? But the official, but I haven't taken a shower yet? I feel uncomfortable now. Let's go to bed after I finish washing." Zhao Xiner said
After listening to his wife's words, Zhang Sheng felt that his body was not very refreshing, so he asked someone to prepare hot water.
After the two of them took a shower, Zhang Sheng finally got what he wanted, met certain conditions and unlocked some actions, which made him very happy.
Because of being too happy, the couple got up late the next day, and they woke up slowly until midnight.
The couple looked at each other and smiled, and then prepared to get up at the same time, because the reason they stopped looking at each other just now was because they were hungry.
Just as the couple was about to get up, Zhao Li had already arrived at Qi's house and was waiting for Qi Xue's arrival in the study.
At this moment, what Zhang Sheng said yesterday flashed in Zhao Li's mind from time to time, thinking about what to say when he saw his father-in-law for a while.
Just as he was thinking in his mind, Qi learned to study. When Zhao Li saw his father-in-law coming, he quickly got up to greet him.
Qi Xue waved his hand and said, "Okay, they are all their own family. Why are you doing so politely? Sit down quickly."
Zhao Li sat down as he was, and Qi Xue saw Zhao Li sitting down and said, "Yesterday was the day when your eldest daughter returned to Ning. You are here today, but what's wrong?"
"My father-in-law is wise, and my son-in-law really can't figure out some things, so I want to come to ask you for advice. I hope my father-in-law will solve his doubts." Zhao Li said
"You, you, I said, don't be so polite. If you have anything you can't figure it out, tell me it quickly." Qi Xue shook his head and said,
"My father-in-law, my son-in-law came yesterday. I chatted with him for a few simple words and probably knew what their family plans are next." Zhao Li said
When Qi Xue heard this, he did not interrupt Zhao Li, but nodded and signaled him to continue speaking.
"Father-in-law, the Zhang family plans to choose another person. They plan to jump out of this game and choose another piece to disrupt the situation."
"The most important thing is that the Zhang family has won over an ally, that is, the Yang family of Duke Jin. What puzzles the son-in-law is why the Yang family agreed to cooperate with the Zhang family."
"Which highness did the Zhang family choose to be worthy of the Yang family's capital? But there is nothing worth noting among the remaining highnesses?" Zhao Li said
"You are still too young, let's talk about the Yang family first. Don't you know the situation of their family? Once those two people come up, will the Yang family still have a good end?"
"So do you think the Yang family has other choices? Besides, even I can't see through him. How could I be a simple person?"
"Do you think the choice made by such a person is worse? Even if it is worse than those three, it must be similar."
"At least, it's not much worse than that Eleventh Prince. With the support of your and my family, do you think it's not enough?" Qi Xue said
"Ah? Father-in-law, he is a son-in-law. So, according to you, who is the Zhang family choosing?" Zhao Li said
"Hmph, I said, why are you so stupid today? You have been pretending to be confused with me. This is what you really want to ask, right?" Qi Xue said
"My father-in-law is clear, and the son-in-law is really confused for a moment. He has not figured out the secret. He is definitely not pretending to be confused." Zhao Li said
"Okay, stop acting with the old man, I'm here. You know what's going on, so don't get stuck."
"As for the candidates for the Zhang family, you can actually think about it carefully. What other people in the palace are worth choosing now?" Qi Xue said
"My father-in-law, after hearing what you said, there are only fifteen and seventeen who are worth choosing in this palace. Are the two Your Highnesses worth choosing, right?" Zhao Li said
"Then I'll ask you, if it were you, which one would you choose?" Qi Xue said
"If it were me, I would naturally choose the seventeenth prince. After all, the seventeenth prince is weak and has no mother clan power behind it, so he is naturally an excellent candidate."
"On the other hand, although the fifteenth prince had a prominent family background, the incident many years ago was obviously not that simple, with the shadow of the emperor behind it."
"So although the fifteenth prince has the advantage over the seventeenth prince, it is of no use. Instead, it will arouse the emperor's suspicion." Zhao Li said
"Haha, if I ask the old man, I will choose the fifteenth prince. And I'm sure Zhang Ling will definitely choose the fifteenth prince. Do you know why this is?" Qi Xue said
"Hiss, please help my father-in-law solve his doubts." Zhao Li said
"Although this Duke of Chu has always been suspicious by His Majesty, it is precisely because of the suspicion that their importance is reflected."
