Chapter 372: A Delaying Tactic

After reading this letter, Zhang's father's hands trembled, and he was about to lose his grip on the letter. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although Guo Mao, the secretary of the military department, did not explicitly state his intentions in this letter, Zhang's father still sniffed between the lines that another letter that needed to be forwarded to Zhang Zhaoyi was extraordinary.

"Zhang Zhaoyi is going to give birth in less than a month." Father Zhang said with a smile, looking at Liang Gongyuan's eyes very vigilantly, with helplessness, embarrassment and pleading.

Liang Gongyuan smiled gently at him and said, "Don't worry, no matter what kind of task it is, we will never ask her to risk her life." ”

It's just that in such a complex environment, who would dare to say that he could save Zhang Zhaoyi's life except for Jinshang?

Therefore, Liang Gongyuan's words did not have much of a comforting effect on Zhang's father, but increased his worries.

Father Zhang raised his eyes and looked at Liang Gongyuan and asked, "Lord Liang, you must know the reason, can you reveal a little bit what kind of task this is?" ”

Liang Gongyuan shook his head very resolutely and said, "I really don't know, I'm sorry!" ”

Immediately, Liang Gongyuan said: "Since it is Lord Guo's instructions, I am afraid we have no choice, Senior Zhang, let's do it according to his wishes." ”

Father Zhang looked down at the letter in his hand in a small envelope, and was very hesitant and apprehensive.

In recent days, his wife has always had nightmares at night, saying that she often dreams of Zhang Zhaoyi looking at her with blood all over her body, and now seeing Guo Mao's letter, Zhang's father is even more worried about Zhang Zhaoyi's safety.

However, as Liang Gongyuan said - they have no choice.

From the day they agreed to cooperate with Guo Mao, they had no choice.

Strictly speaking, it was he who pushed his daughter into this abyss. He was too obsessed with power.

Now, he regrets it.

Alas, Zhang's father sighed, walked to the desk silently, and wrote a letter to Zhang Zhaoyi with trembling hands.

After he finished writing the letter, Liang Gongyuan approached and said politely: "I want to take a look." ”

Father Zhang nodded almost invisibly.

Liang Gongyuan read the letter written by Zhang's father and said, "It's okay, thank you!" ”

Zhang's father carefully folded the letter, and sandwiched the letter that Guo Mao instructed to hand over to Zhang Zhaoyi in the middle of the letter, and then took out a large envelope to put the two letters in, and then sealed the seal with paste.

Zhang's father did this very slowly, and it seemed that every movement had to work hard to overcome his inner reluctance.

Liang Gongyuan saw it in his eyes and sighed silently.

In fact, Liang Gongyuan is very aware of Zhang Zhaoyi's crucialness in the whole matter, and it is precisely because she plays a pivotal role in this incident that her situation is actually very dangerous.

But he also knew that Zhang's father knew, so he didn't say anything more.

Zhang's father sent someone to secretly send the letter to Zhang Zhaoyi in front of Liang Gongyuan.

Seeing that the matter had been done, Liang Gongyuan got up and said, "That night is goodbye, Senior Zhang, take care!" ”

Father Zhang also hurriedly got up and said, "Lord Liang, go slowly." He didn't forget to instruct: "In the future, Zhang Zhaoyi hopes that the adults will take care of them." ”

Liang Gongyuan said very happily: "This is nature. ”

That night, Zhang's father's letter arrived at Zhang Zhaoyi.

Seeing that it was a letter from her father, Zhang Zhaoyi was surprised.

Her father rarely wrote to her, and usually asked someone to send her a message.

Now that she suddenly saw her father's letter, Zhang Zhaoyi was surprised and nervous, she hurriedly asked the palace maids to step back, and then turned on the lamp on the table, and opened the envelope under the light.

When she found out that there was still a letter in her father's letter, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and when she found out that the handwriting was Guo Mao's, her heart was even more nervous.

She read her father's letter first, and then Guo Mao's letter.

After reading Guo Mao's letter, her face suddenly turned pale.

Guo Mao asked her to implement the plan by July. It's the beginning of June, and it's just over 20 days away.

Time was too rushed. And that's not the most important thing. And most importantly - she couldn't do it at all.

If a year ago, she could have implemented this plan very happily, but this year, she found that she slowly fell in love with the emperor.

Because of love, she was reluctant to attack him.

But Guo Mao and the mastermind behind Guo Mao are waiting for her reply, because they need to get her affirmative reply before they can make the next specific arrangements.

Now, she was forced to stand on the edge of the bureau they had set up, and there was no way out, and I was afraid that she would have to jump down according to their instructions anyway.

However, this sudden instruction caught her off guard, and she couldn't accept it at all.

Before entering the palace, she had made clear her purpose for entering the palace, and she had always believed that she could complete the task according to their instructions.

But then she slowly discovers that their plot is far bigger than she had imagined, which makes her feel miserable and embarrassed.

They even wanted the emperor to die.

Didn't they say before that as long as she cooperated with them, she would get the emperor's favor one day and have the possibility of ascending to the throne of the queen? Of course, it is also possible to assist them in dealing with the emperor, but it is not said that they will take the emperor's life.

If the present is dead, then the people of the kingdom will be panicked, and there will be a struggle for the throne between the princes, does such a thing really have to happen?

Zhang Zhaoyi was very embarrassed.

She has never been a good person in the strict sense of the word, but she has not been bad to the extreme, and since she was favored by the emperor and conceived a child, her heart has gradually become kind.

The main purpose of her entering the palace is to get close to the emperor and get the emperor's love, and now her wish has come true, so her heart has begun to settle, and she can calm down and think about the pros and cons of this.

When she realized that Guo Mao and the mastermind behind Guo Mao had other ambitions, she began to rebel.

Now, after reading the letter written by Guo Mao, her resistance is particularly strong.

They wanted the emperor to die, but she didn't.

She knew very well that the emperor's death would not benefit her at all. On the contrary, it will bring incalculable disasters to her.

In that case, of course, she didn't want to listen to them.

But could she disobey their orders?

No, unless she wasn't even afraid of death.

But after all, she was afraid of death.

What to do?

Zhang Zhaoyi clutched the letter and pondered.

Refusing their instructions was a dead end, and she was unwilling to accept them.

What to do?

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Zhaoyi had an idea and immediately picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Guo Mao.

"The end of June to the beginning of July is when I am going to give birth, and it is very inconvenient to move, I am afraid it is not conducive to the implementation of this plan, I hope to understand! In order to ensure that the operation is foolproof, I implore that this plan be postponed until mid-July, by which time I will have given birth and will be able to carry it out more perfectly. Zhang Zhaoyi said in the letter.

After writing it, Zhang Zhaoyi read the letter again.

They asked her to give a specific date for action, but she didn't give a specific date in the entire letter.

She thought about it for a while, and finally made up her mind, adding at the end of the letter, "I will act from the afternoon to the evening of July 20." ”

Judging from the time, she should have given birth to a child at that time.

She then wrote a letter to her father, then sealed the letter to Guo Mao in an envelope and sandwiched it in her father's letter, and sent someone to send it to Zhang's mansion overnight.
