Zhuang Qing said, "I have asked someone to investigate." Then a strange look appeared on his face, as if he was quite puzzled, "Father moved to the back room. Mother, you know, the conditions over there are better. Now I can always breathe a sigh of relief, but my son is afraid..." He didn't dare to say the following words. When he and his mother went to see their father Zhao Changchun for the last time, he was already skinny and his body was so thin that he seemed to be blown by the wind. about to fall.

"Who did it?" Mrs. Zhuang's tone became agitated. Speaking of which, Mrs. Zhuang's personality is introverted, but she is very concerned about her husband's affairs. "Last time, the leader said he would help us. Is it the leader?"

Zhuang Qing shook her head and said, "Mother, didn't the leader still say that some of us are in the cabinet and are very powerful people, but even he dare not come forward, because the emperor personally watched this matter."

"That's strange? Who is it?"

"My son doesn't know either. He is neither a member of the sect nor a friend of his father, so the son sometimes wonders if it is his sister..." Before Zhuang Qing finished speaking, she saw Mrs. Zhuang's face change, and she shouted, "You Have you still not given up on her? Even if she is not the eldest lady of the Zhao family now, since you abandoned her in the capital at the beginning, there will be a estrangement between you just because of this matter, and you will never go back to the past. Besides, She is a woman, she has nothing to do, and nothing to do with each other, so how could she accomplish this?"

Zhuang Qing lowered her eyelids, and said sullenly, "Mum, I know, but I really can't find anyone to reach out, so I thought maybe my sister is now in the Zhao family, and she begged Zhao Xingkun for help."

Mrs. Zhuang shook her head and said, "Impossible, let me ask you, if you were Zhao Xingkun, would you offend the court because of your granddaughter's adoptive father? Are you willing to participate in this matter?"

Zhuang Qing's face darkened, and he said, "What mother said is that I think too easily. Besides being my sister's grandfather, Zhao Xingkun is also the head of the family. He also needs to consider for the Zhao family. This kind of involvement is so extensive that he is even How could he intervene in the case that His Majesty is staring at? At most... it is just to find someone to help keep father from dying."

"That's right, how many people did we get angry with before? If it wasn't for the fact that things were too difficult, why did our mother and son jump into this pit of fire?" Mrs. Zhuang said, tears welled up in her eyes, as if she was very heartbroken.

Zhuang Qing hurriedly comforted, "Mother, don't cry, isn't father all right? As long as I gain a firm position in the church, I will definitely find a way to rescue him. If it doesn't work, we will rob him."

"Don't do stupid things." Although Mrs. Zhuang valued her husband and son-in-law, but Zhuang Qing was the only son, she naturally hoped that Zhuang Qing could live well, and jailing would be the last resort.

Mrs. Zhuang wiped her tears, cheered herself up, and asked, "Are you sure you want to join the leader? What about your uncle Zhuang Keji?"

"Mother, why are you mentioning someone like Zhuang Keji? He and Tu Gang, the protector of the right, worked hand in hand. First, he dragged his father into the water. You must know that his father had already washed his hands in the golden basin, and he also promised us that we would never be contaminated by the Tiangui sect in the future." things, and said that the whole family should live a good life," Zhuang Qing said through gritted teeth, eyes full of hatred. "If he didn't use means to force his father to participate in the corruption case, how could his father be locked up in prison?"

The more Zhuang Qing spoke, the more excited she became. She patted the pillar on the canopy bed and made a loud bang, which made the heart tremble. Forgive them both."

Mrs. Zhuang sighed, and said, "It's fine if you make up your mind. So you have persuaded your uncle to join the sect leader?" Qing desperately gave them a hand. They naturally liked him more than their younger uncle Zhuang Keji who turned his elbow outward.

There was a time when the Tiangui Sect spread almost all over the country, and one out of ten people in the Great Zhou Dynasty was a believer. It was at this time that the Zhuang family fell into it, donated all its property, and became the second immortal king after the leader, the late emperor. At one time, he made a ruthless plan to wipe out the Tiangui Sect, and the Zhuang family almost wiped out the clan. At that time, Zhao Changchun was a direct branch of the Zhuang family, but he was unwilling to participate in the Tiangui Sect, and started his life again incognito. To escape such a fate...

After Mrs. Zhuang had said these many words, she showed a somewhat tired expression on her face. Seeing this, Zhuang Qing hurriedly said, "Mother, you should rest first."

Zhao Ruizhi waited at home for three days but did not receive any news... She was a little restless, feeling that something was out of the ordinary.

A feeling of uneasiness welled up in my heart. Could it be that my grandfather had already seen that she was lying

Zhao Ruizhi squeezed the handkerchief in her hand fiercely, as if she wanted to squeeze the handkerchief into a rag to relieve her hatred, and said to herself, "I even said that I am willing to enter the palace instead of my sister, so why hesitate? My own granddaughter is not I'm willing to give it away, but I don't want to let me... what do you want?" Then a ferocious look appeared on his face, "It's really an old man, do you really think I can't live after leaving the Zhao family?"

The servant girl came over with tea, and was startled when she saw Zhao Ruizhi's ferocious face. She froze and said tremblingly, "Girl, why is your face so scary?"

Only then did Zhao Ruizhi come to her senses as if waking up from a dream, and then she thought of what she just said, subconsciously covering her mouth with her hand, her heart beating wildly, what did she just say

"Girl, do you want to rest for a while? You haven't slept well for several nights." The servant girl said worriedly.

Zhao Ruizhi propped her chin, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and then opened them quickly, her face finally regained its original softness, and said, "I'm really tired, what is grandfather doing recently?" She seemed to ask unintentionally, but her eyes were fixed on the servant girl.

Seeing Zhao Ruizhi's kind expression, the servant girl breathed a sigh of relief, poured tea for Zhao Ruizhi, and then stood beside her and replied, "The old man has always wanted to see the old lady, but the old lady just refused to let go. And back."

As long as the two of them haven't met..., it's impossible to debunk her plan, so what went wrong

The servant girl then said, "However, before I came, I seemed to see the old man went to find the young lady."

"What are you going to do with Missy?"

"Recently there have been a lot of gossip. Sometimes it is said that the old man is going to send the young lady to the palace, and later someone is saying that our eldest house is going to give up the position of head of the family. Now it is even more outrageous." The servant girl seemed to think it was ridiculous, covering her mouth Laughing, "You actually want to make an engagement for the eldest lady at this time."

"Marriage engagement?"

"Yeah." The servant girl nodded, and carefully peeled the orange for Zhao Ruizhi, removing the white line on it, "But many people said it was just a joke, and now that the Zhao family is in such a violent situation, who else would dare to come and hire me? Now is the time for the draft... and the eldest lady happens to be a rabbit, who is tired of living? Isn't this a competition with the current majesty? Even if you really like the eldest lady and want to hire him, you have to wait until the end of the draft, right? Otherwise it would be too eye-catching.”

"It's really messy like a nest of porridge." Zhao Ruizhi said with a sneer.

"Girl, what did you say?"

"It's okay." Zhao Ruizhi threw the oranges handed over by the maid casually on the long table, and said, "I'm tired, you go out first, I'll rest for a while."

Although the servant girl felt that Zhao Ruizhi was a bit strange today, she was the master after all and she didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she left after a few words of advice.

Zhao Ruizhi lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning, but she knew that now she had no choice but to wait.

Grandfather Zhao Xingkun was talking to Zhao Jinyu. This time the atmosphere was different from the relaxed atmosphere last time. It looked very dignified and serious. The hot tea on the coffee table had been changed several times, but the conversation was still not over.

Zhao Jinyu couldn't sit still, so she stood up and said, "Grandpa means to let me enter the palace?"

"No." Zhao Xingkun shook his head, "Grandpa won't force you to do things you don't like, but the family your grandmother arranged for you is really inappropriate." Logically speaking, Zhao Xingkun shouldn't directly talk about this kind of marriage with Zhao Jinyu But now there is a disconnect between them, Zhao Jinyu's parents are both deceased, and now is an extraordinary period, so I can only speak bluntly like this.

Zhao Jinyu also felt uncomfortable thinking about this marriage. In order not to let the old lady send her to the palace, the old lady quickly and quickly arranged a marriage. The Bai family is also a famous family in Hangzhou, so she is willing to accept this marriage at this time It was also for the sake of the old lady, but Zhao Jinyu really didn't like that person.

The son of the Bai family is not bad, he is tall and thin, fair and elegant, but the problem is that sour smell on his body... She simply can't stand it, and when they meet, she asks her seriously if she has read it. Female ring? She also said very understandingly that she just recognized her ancestors, so it's normal that she didn't read it carefully, but I hope that she will study it carefully after she gets married, and he will accompany her well.

Zhao Jinyu wanted to smash the teacup at that time. If she remembers correctly, the beginning of the female ring is, the ancients gave birth to a daughter for three days and slept under the bed..., to the effect that a girl was allowed to sleep under the bed three days after giving birth, indicating that women should Humble and weak, always treat others with humility.

This third young master Bai wants her to recognize her humble identity

"Your grandmother is of course doing it for you, but she is too anxious." Zhao Xingkun chose his words carefully, and said very slowly, for fear of saying something that would make Zhao Jinyu unhappy, "This third son Bai has a mellow temperament, kindness and integrity, You don’t have a concubine, and you’re a direct descendant. Your grandmother chose well, but she’s too pedantic and doesn’t know how to adapt. It’s okay to be a friend, but as a grandson-in-law, my grandfather really doesn’t like it.”

Zhao Jinyu thought, I don't like it either.

Zhao Xingkun continued, "Since your father's incident, my grandfather has figured it out. You still have to ask the child whether he likes it or not."

Zhao Jinyu raised her head and was quite moved when she saw Zhao Xingkun's sad look when she mentioned her father, and said, "Grandfather, I actually don't know what to do."
