Who was the woman who took action?

Zhao Hao looked at the old man with a frank look in his eyes, but he was murmuring in his heart.

At that time, I decided to cooperate with Ning Wanli because I was moved by her words. Even if the old man would protect him, the ending he wanted was definitely different from the ending he wanted.

Therefore, there are some things that there is no need to let the old man know.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other for a while, but in the end they didn't dig deeper into the problem.

The old man said in a low voice: "Tell me, how did you arrange it!"

Zhao Hao smiled and said: "It's not very complicated. I'll tell you about the script right now."

But the old man suddenly interrupted: "Wait!"

Zhao Hao thought he had gone back on his word, and subconsciously became anxious, but found that the old man had spread his hands.

He was a little confused: "What do you mean?"

The old man patted the table and said impatiently: "Didn't you mean to give me double the appearance fee of the Qingyue class leader Xu? You don't have enough money, but you still want me to sing for you with my old bones?"

Zhao Hao: "..."

His teeth were a little sour, but he still ran away from the study and came back soon with a heavy two thousand gold.

Only then did the grandfather and grandson begin to discuss things formally.

"Grandpa, listen to me."

"Let's do this first..."

"If you do this again..."

"In the end..."

"What do you think?"

The old man said nothing from beginning to end, his eyes were half surprised and half solemn. He waited for Zhao Hao to finish speaking before slowly speaking: "This plan of yours requires Jiang Huai's cooperation."

Zhao Hao smacked his lips: "That's right! But this woman is crazy. She should cooperate. If she doesn't cooperate, I have other ways."

It's not that Zhao Hao is too powerful, but that laning is not a one-person game. Anticipation and opponent coordination are inherently complementary to each other.

The old man thought for a while and felt that what his grandson said was reasonable. Given Jiang Huai's current state, it was indeed very likely that he would follow this script.

After all, he took the initiative to release water for the people of Wei on the inland river, and he could do things like force the princess's nanny to death just to test his grandson. What other self-righteous things could he not do?

So he nodded: "Okay! Just do as you say!"

…

Qianqing Palace.

Jiang Huai's eyes were horrified, and even his body was trembling slightly, as if he was trapped in extremely terrifying memories.

Jiang Zheng's face also looked a little ugly, but he still said comfortingly: "Sister Huang, don't panic, you said she came back, but found something in the wilderness?"

Jiang Huai shook his head: "Zhao Dingbian's Huolinma is too fast. When I caught up with him, I missed too many things."

Jiang Zheng narrowed his eyes: "In other words, you didn't find any trace of that person in the wilderness?"

Jiang Huai was silent for a while and slowly shook his head: "Zhao Dingbian discovered that I was following him. He moved very fast and was extremely cautious. It was not easy to keep up with him. In this trip to the wilderness, I... gained nothing."

Although I hate to admit it, this is the fact.

Even among the Six Kingdoms, no one can surpass him in tracking skills.

But Zhao Dingbian has known her for decades and has fought side by side for decades. How could he not know her methods?

Being cautious at all times, coupled with the speed of the fire horse, was enough to make her miss most of the key information.

At this time, she got the news about Mu Yancheng and Shangliangcheng, so she thought that the ax woman had returned to the desert country, so she returned one step ahead of schedule. Zhao Dingbian followed closely behind her, making her even more certain about this. possible.

Jiang Zheng frowned and thought deeply, feeling that this matter was a bit strange, but he couldn't explain exactly what was strange.

After all, he doesn't know any information.

In the palace.

Pacing back and forth.

After a long time, he finally stopped: "Sister, please be patient. This matter may not be as bad as you and I imagined. Shangliang City and Muyan City are just remote cities after all. She only dares to visit these two places." Appearing here means that the backlash of the country's fate has not been completely overcome, at least it will not have any impact on you and me now. Moreover, this move is really an attempt to alert the snake, it is really a bit strange, and it may not really be that she is back."

Although these two people who met a miserable end had offended her, they were neither important figures.

There is no need to take revenge so early.

Jiang Huai shook his head: "You are deceiving yourself a little. Is she the kind of person who makes plans and then acts?"

Jiang Zheng choked for a moment. Before the two of them broke up, he was said to be free and easy by nature.

After the breakup, he was still free and easy, even too free and easy. During the period before leaving the wilderness, he followed his own temperament and didn't take anything seriously.

Making a decision and then acting... is really a bit of a self-deception.

But he still felt something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything to comfort Jiang Huai, so he could only pat her on the shoulder: "Don't worry! The national destiny is so strong that even the Grandmaster cannot defeat it. It is not unreasonable for the Six Kingdoms to stand for so long. Not to mention that she won’t be able to return to Kyoto in a short time, even if she can return, Zhao Dingbian will not let her do whatever she wants."

This sentence is really not that Jiang Zheng is deceiving himself, but that he has absolute confidence in Zhao Dingbian.

At least, he will never do anything that harms the desert country or the people, nor will he let others do it.

But will it hurt Jiang Huai...

If I say intercede, I shouldn’t, right?

Jiang Zheng is not sure. He also feels that this matter is too ridiculous. In his understanding, that person has found a way to alleviate the backlash of the national destiny and will not be able to return to Kyoto in a short time. Maybe by that time, he will have already I have lived in the imperial mausoleum for several years.

Fortunately, Jiang Huai listened to these words a little, his panic eased a little, and he whispered: "I hope so!"

Jiang Zheng smiled slightly: "The Linyu Pavilion will be opening tomorrow night, why don't we take some time to relax with the imperial sister?"

Jiang Huai calmed down and originally planned to refuse. After all, she had stayed in the sect and held a high position in the wilderness for so many years. It would be difficult for her to find anything that would impress her in a mere Linyu Pavilion D-level auction.

But she is extremely irritable now.

She was too familiar with this feeling. This feeling had appeared several times before, and it had more or less pushed her to do some irrational things, which had brought about some consequences that she didn't want to bear.

It's best to suppress this feeling.

So she nodded: "That's fine! I'll go into seclusion first. Remember to remind me tomorrow night!"

After saying that, the figure disappeared into thin air.

Jiang Zheng let out a breath and sat back on the soft floor again, looking slightly wistful as he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long time, a voice sounded outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Qin Zhili has come to excuse himself!"

Jiang Zheng just woke up from a dream and couldn't help but smile. Without nodding, Qin Zhili certainly didn't dare to leave without permission, so he nodded and said: "Come in!"

Qin Zhili responded and walked in respectfully, holding a thick booklet in his hand.

Jiang Zheng said doubtfully: "This is..."

Qin Zhili hurriedly said: "This is the plan put together by the ministers, and I would like to ask the emperor to take a look at it."

Jiang Zheng took it and looked at it, and found that the writing was pretty good. All the things that should be considered were taken into consideration. The budget was clearly written, and there was no big difference from what he had expected.

It seems that this silly boy has some abilities.

He smiled and asked, "So you're here to ask for money?"

Qin Zhili hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Yes..."

It's also sincere.

Jiang Zheng shook his head and smiled: "Sure, I'll transfer the money to you the day after tomorrow!"

Qin Zhili was overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Jiang Zheng asked curiously: "This excerpt has a lot of words. How long did it take you to write it now?"

"yes!"

"Then where did you leave Yueqing?"

"The minister told the princess that state affairs are the most important thing. The princess understands the righteousness, so naturally..."

"Then what's going on with the slap marks on your face?"

"this……"

Qin Zhili choked and looked extremely embarrassed.

Jiang Zheng sighed, thinking that if he didn't grant the marriage, such a stupid boy might not be able to find a wife in his life.

He shook his head: "Is there anything else?"

Qin Zhili hesitated for a while, and then said: "The princess said that Wei Chen's arithmetic is a mess, and the budget in this book was all calculated with the help of the princess. The princess also said that if the bookstore is handed over to Wei Chen's hands, sooner or later it will ruin the major affairs of the wilderness.

, I asked the minister to tell the emperor if he could find a job for her in the bookstore, even without a salary."

Jiang Zheng: "Hiss..."
