Chapter Seventy-Two: Determination
Ever since the nightmare that night, Qi Jiao had made up her mind to replace Saitama in the palace. In the afternoon of this day, she came to Wang's courtyard, thinking that she wanted to probe her mother's tone first, and she knew that her mother would not easily agree to her entering the palace.
When Wang saw her daughter, she was full of smiles, originally she looked at Qi Jiao's situation that day, and was worried that Qi Jiao would collapse, but she was very relieved to see that Qi Jiao returned to normal in a few days. When I saw my daughter at this time, I didn't look at the account book that was facing Tongfu, and told Tongfu to go down first.
"Jiaojiao, you didn't go to Huguo Temple to worship the Buddha that day, or your mother took you out for a walk and relax. ”
"Mother, my daughter is already well, so what is the need to scatter my heart. Qi Jiao said playfully.
"Let's see if there's been a new set of jewelry lately, and you can add two pieces. ”
"No, don't worry, mother, I'm really fine. I came to my mother today because I had something. ”
"What's the matter?"
"That day, I heard my mother say that my father was going to send my second sister to the palace?"
"No, Mother. Qi Jiao was still persistently asking.
"Hmm. Wang replied in a low voice.
"Mother, I want to enter the palace. Qi Jiao listened and said firmly. Wang was shocked when he heard this,
"Why do you suddenly want to enter the palace? That kind of place is not for fun, not for you. ”
"Mother, I imagine Concubine Chen's mother, not my big sister. Wang was stunned when he heard this.
"Jiaojiao, do you know that this draft is arranged for the East Palace and the princes who have not married. Now that King Shou is powerful, your father wants Saitama to enter the palace, but he actually wants to send it to the prince's mansion, but once the prince is deposed, the situation can be imagined, and my mother doesn't want you to go. ”
"However, have you ever thought that if the crown prince succeeds in ascending the throne, with the means of the second sister, she will definitely win the favor of the prince, when the time comes, how will we face her and bow down to the subordinate? Mother, the daughter is unwilling!" Wang Shi listened, lowered his head and did not make a sound, and after a long time, he raised his head and stared at Qi Jiao and said:
"Even so, Mother doesn't want you to put yourself in danger. ”
"Mother, my daughter is unwilling to be bullied, the only way is to become a human being, only then can I wash away my shame. And the elder brother and younger brother will also have a better future in the future. When the Wang family heard this, they realized that Qi Jiao had not let go at all, and she was only bent on entering the palace to take revenge.
"Jiaojiao, in the court, the intrigue between women is not something you can imagine. At home, you can't even have the upper hand in the face of your second sister, and when you get there, there are no bones left that will only be eaten. Mother is reluctant. ”
"Mother, believe in daughters. Wang shook his head,
"Mother, my daughter has made up her mind that she will not marry again except this way. Wang was shocked,
"Jiaojiao, why are you so troubled. ”
"Mother, believe in my daughter, and when my daughter raises her eyebrows, all those who have bullied me will regret it. ”
"Don't worry, let your mother think about it, and then discuss it with your father. ”
"Hmm. ”
After Qi Jiao left, the Wang family sat there and thought deeply, with Qi Jiao's talent and appearance, he would inevitably be favored by the prince, but if something went wrong with the prince, what should Qi Jiao do? How could there be a perfect plan? From the news that he got from his parents' house last time, his father should be on the side of King Shou, but why did Zhang Hou have to find a way to send his daughter to the East Palace, did he have other plans?
Wang thought so deeply, he didn't even know that the sky was dark, and the maid shouldn't have come in without her instructions, so Zhang Hou was startled when he came in and saw the black hole in the main room.
"Madam?" Zhang Hou shouted, pulling Wang out of his thoughts.
"Oh, the lord is back. ”
"What's wrong with Madam, you don't have the lights on this time?"
"The concubine is thinking about things and forgetting them. With that, the Wang family was busy with the maid holding the lamp, and the couple changed their clothes and went to the old lady to say goodbye. After that, Zhang Hou went straight to the study to deal with his business, and Wang couldn't calm down when he returned to the room, so he asked Tongfu to accompany him, and ordered the little girl to bring a few snacks and come to the front yard. Zhang Hou was very surprised when he saw his wife, and the Wang family rarely came to the study.
"Madam, how can there be Yaxing today, red sleeves add fragrance?"
"Isn't it necessary?" Wang asked rhetorically, while ordering the little girl to take out the snacks and put them on the small machine on the side, let Hou let Tongfu lead the little girl to retreat. Only then did he say to Zhang Hou:
"Master, the concubine is here today, but there is something wrong. Zhang Hou twisted a piece of plum blossom cake, and then said:
"Ma'am, but it doesn't hurt to say so. Wang took a deep breath and said:
"Master, but you want to send Saitama to the East Palace?" Zhang Hou's eyes narrowed,
"What do you mean, ma'am?"
"Master, I won't tell you, Qi Jiao came to me today and said that she was going to enter the palace. ”
"What?" Zhang Hou exclaimed.
"Qi Jiao is not like Saiyu, she can take care of herself, but she insists on going, and the concubine is not at ease. Of course, Wang can't say it directly, she doesn't care about Saitama's safety. Sure enough, Zhang Hou said:
"This is difficult to do, my eldest brother and I are optimistic about Saitama, the delicate girl is not suitable, and it is not as stable as Sister Yu. Wang didn't like to listen to it the most, Qi Jiao was not as good as Saitama, and immediately retorted:
"But Jiao'er's appearance is more outstanding than Sister Yu'er. Zhang Hou sneered,
"In that kind of place, is it enough to just look good?" Wang's face turned red, and as soon as she touched Qi Jiao's matter, she lost her calm and judgment.
"However, Madame has a point. Unexpectedly, Zhang Hou came to flip again, and Wang's eyes widened and looked at Zhang Hou in surprise.
"I have some news with my eldest brother, maybe Qi Jiao is more suitable. ”
"What do you mean?"
"If Qi Jiao is really willing, then she can also give it a try, but has she thought about it? ”
"Master, why is it the crown prince, now the king of Shou ......" Zhang Hou interrupted Wang's words,
"Madam, there are some things that you still don't know. After speaking, his face was a little heavy. Wang's heart was full of thoughts, and he faintly felt that there might be something wrong between his husband and father, but he couldn't be sure.
The next day, Zhang Hou called Qi Jiao to his study. Qi Jiao has met her father, and the Wang family has already told Qi Jiao what Zhang Hou meant. Zhang Hou looked at his daughter's more and more beautiful face, compared to when Wang was young, thinking about the news that the eldest brother heard about it, the prince loves beauty, and it is inevitable that Qi Jiao will be favored, but thinking about sending his daughter to that place, he hesitated in his heart.
Seeing that her father had not spoken for a long time, Qi Jiao exclaimed tentatively:
"Father!" replied Zhang Houcai.
"Jiao'er, have you thought about it? That road is not easy to walk!"
"Father, the daughter has already thought about it, the daughter is not afraid, and she will definitely go on well. ”
"That's not a question of being afraid or not, in that kind of place, whoever is strong can stay, otherwise they will only be eaten by others. ”
"The daughter will not disappoint the father, the daughter must make the Zhang family proud of the daughter. This sentence is very pleasing to the ear, which is also what he is most dissatisfied with Saitama, Saitama is indeed more capable than Qijiao, but it is difficult to really control, she is too thoughtful. Zhang Hou nodded with satisfaction,
"Well, for your sake, my father promised you. During this time, your mother will ask someone to teach you and study hard!"
"Yes, father. Qi Jiao's eyes were full of brilliance, which was a vision for the future.
