Chapter 295 The attitude of the eldest princess?
Zhang Zong finally plucked up the courage to say what he said about marrying Ning'er, then looked at Xue Shao with a calm look on his face, waiting for the other party's reaction, and he admitted whether the other party beat or scolded.
But what Zhang Zong never expected was that Xue Shao was stunned when he heard his words, then grinned and said, "Brother Shi, you are finally going to get started!"
"You... aren't you angry?" Zhang Zong was shocked to believe when he saw Xue Shao's performance. The other party's reaction was too abnormal.
"Haha, of course I'm not angry. I know Ning'er's little thoughts better than anyone else. But I was worried that you would refuse Brother Shi, but I didn't expect you to accept Ning'er." Xue Shao smiled again and said.
Zhang Zong was also surprised at this time. He didn't expect that Xue Shao had known about this for a long time, but it seemed not surprising to think about it. After all, Ning'er is Xue Shao's only sister, and the relationship between brother and sister is also very good, so Ning'er probably can't hide anything from him.
"Huh~, just don't object, but Sanlang, do you think the eldest princess will agree?" Zhang Zong breathed a sigh of relief at first, but when he mentioned Princess Chengyang, he became nervous again.
"This..." Xue Shao also showed a hesitant expression when he heard this. After a moment, he spoke, "I can't guarantee my mother's reaction, but in my opinion, with Brother Shi's talent, the noble officials in the capital should not refuse to marry you, so my mother should not object."
"Really? Will the eldest princess really agree?" Zhang Zong's eyes lit up when he heard Xue Shao's words. He had no confidence at all, but Xue Shao's words made him see hope.
"Of course, my mother has always wanted to match you, you know this, and Ning'er is also at the age of getting married. My mother also nagged this a few days ago, but she didn't think about you and Ning'er for a while. Maybe she would be as happy as me after knowing you." Xue Shao said immediately.
"Okay, no matter what, I have to convince the eldest princess to agree!" Zhang Zong immediately made up his mind. Since things had reached this point, he could not withstand his retreat, so he could only face it bravely.
"Brother Shi, why not do this? I'll go back and check my mother's words first. It would be better if she agrees. If she doesn't agree, we can also think of a solution?" Xue Shao suggested at this time. He raised his hands and feet to agree that Zhang Zong would marry his sister, but he couldn't guess his mother's thoughts.
After hearing this, Zhang Zong also showed a hesitant expression, but quickly shook his head and said, "No, if I don't come forward for such a major matter, it will make the eldest princess disgusted. I believe that as long as I am honest, the eldest princess will definitely be moved by me!"
"It makes sense. My mother has never liked others to be timid. Maybe it would be better if you go directly to her confess!" Xue Shao nodded in agreement after hearing this.
"No further ado, is the eldest princess at home today?" Zhang Zong asked again at this time.
"At home, my uncle fell ill again yesterday, but after being treated by Ming Chongyan, the symptoms have been relieved a lot, so my mother came back and didn't go out today." Xue Shao nodded immediately and said.
Zhang Zong was moved when he heard Ming Chongyan's name, but now he didn't have time to pay attention to the other party, so he should do his own thing before he could do it.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zong immediately pulled Xue Shao away from Chongxian Pavilion. The two of them galloped all the way in a carriage and soon arrived at the Princess's Mansion. After the carriage entered the mansion, Zhang Zong and Xue Shao got off the carriage together.
Although Zhang Zong can't remember how many times he has come to the Princess' Mansion, he has never been as nervous as he is now, and his heart is even more "bangbang" and he has to take a few deep breaths, which has helped him recover a little calmer.
Xue Shao asked the manager in the mansion and learned that Princess Chengyang was resting in the inner house, so the two of them did not report and went directly to the yard where Princess the inner house lived. When they entered the study where Princess was, they found Princess Chengyang was sitting behind the desk practicing calligraphy. She and Li Zhi were both very well-written by her father Li Shimin.
"See mother, eldest princess!" Xue Shao and Zhang Zong entered the room and immediately went forward to salute.
"Why are you two back together? Especially Shaoer, don't you have to go to class today?" The eldest princess put down her pen and glanced at Zhang Zong and the others, and then asked.
"I had a class today, but Brother Shi wanted to discuss important things with his mother, so I came with him!" Xue Shao reported truthfully that even though he had already started a family and started a career, he still did not dare to be arrogant in front of his mother. Only when he insisted on marrying Changsun Yuanyi did he become tough once.
"Oh? Zong'er, if you have something to do, you have to go there?" Princess Chengyang also looked at Zhang Zong curiously and asked.
"This..." Zhang Zong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Princess Qi, I... I... Actually..."
Seeing Zhang Zong hesitating, Xue Shao next to him couldn't wait and said for him: "Mom, Brother Shi has figured it out, he has decided to marry and have children!"
"Huh? Have you really figured it out?" Princess Chengyang was shocked when she heard this. She looked at Zhang Zong with a smile on her face and asked. Before, she gave Zhang Zong a few portraits of a noble woman on Zhang Zong's birthday. As long as Zhang Zong chose one, she would immediately come to propose marriage in person. Unfortunately, Zhang Zong did not make up his mind at that time, so the matter would be left to nothing.
"Yes!" Zhang Zong nodded with a red look.
"Tell me quickly, which little lady do you like? Is it the woman in the portraits I gave you before?" Princess Chengyang asked excitedly again when she heard this.
"this……"
Zhang Zong was about to speak, but he didn't expect that Princess Chengyang suddenly slapped her hands and said, "No, you have never agreed before. Some of those women seem to have been engaged to someone else, but it doesn't matter. As long as you nod, I can help you find more suitable women. There are so many noble families in Chang'an, and you will be able to choose when you choose!"
Zhang Zong was also a little amused when he heard this. Xue Shao and the eldest princess are worthy of being mother and son. They both like to interrupt people so much. However, this time he no longer interrupted the eldest princess, so he mustered up the courage to whisper: "The eldest princess doesn't have to bother me, I already have a woman I like!"
