Zhang Zuolun happened to be in the mansion, and when he heard that Ling Yi was coming, he happily went out to greet him in person.

treats his matchmaker, Zhang Zuolun sees Ling Yi as a hundred likes, but he is also curious about the latter's sudden visit.

"I heard that you went to Baifu to propose." Ling Yi asked when she saw him.

Zhang Zuolun's face tightened, and he looked around in a panic, but fortunately, the maids were far away, so they shouldn't have heard it.

When Ling Yi saw his performance, she guessed what was going on, "Your father doesn't know yet." ”

Zhang Zuolun simply dismissed the people left and right, and took Ling Yi to the front yard, and then said: "Father disagreed, I only later heard from the next person that I leaked my mouth, and I learned that Miao Hairpin and your grandmother came to the door to mention it."

They came to the door in person, and it was obvious that they valued me, but my father refused.

I was so angry that I went to my father to theorize, but he scolded me and said that it would never be possible. ”

He hung his head, his face was gloomy, if his father agreed, he and Miao Hairpin might have to discuss the issue of marriage.

"So you decided to come to the door on your own and propose your own marriage?" There was obvious disapproval in Ling Yi's eyes.

Zhang Zuolun looked at her curly: "Did I do something wrong?" Don't you also approve of me and Miao Hairpin too? ”

Ling Yi sighed helplessly: "I agree, but I didn't let you use it in this way."

You hide it from your family like this, even if the time comes, your father has to agree, but have you ever thought about the hairpin?

She married into your Zhang family, but in such an improper way, you think she can accept your family in Zhang's mansion. Or even the respect of the subordinate? I'm afraid that marrying is not a blessing, but a blessing. ”

Zhang Zuolun was stunned by what she said, but he thought about it. He felt that what Ling Yi said was very reasonable, and couldn't help but hurriedly say, "Then what should I do?" I've already brought my words to the White House—"

Ling Yi thought for a moment, and then comforted: "Don't worry, I just analyzed the harm of hiding from your family, you just went to meet the Bai family, and you haven't even scratched the word." As for your father's side, either you are sure that you will be able to give Miao Hairpin absolute protection in the future. Or, you just find a way to convince your father. ”

Zhang Zuolun remembered that when he went to find his father's theory that day, he was scolded and bloody. I know how difficult it is to convince my father.

"It's difficult, if you really feel difficult, it's better to give up early, your Zhang family has a lot of money. What kind of daughter does not. There is no need to worry about life's events. Ling Yi's tone was a little cold.

Zhang Zuolun waved his hand again and again to explain: "I didn't mean that, although it was a little difficult to convince my father, but I wouldn't just give up."

If he doesn't agree one day, I will ask for one day, and if he disagrees for a month, I will ask for a month, a year, ten years. When he agrees, I don't ask for it. ”

Ling Yi sighed again. Shook his head: "Perseverance is commendable, but the method is really stupid, have you ever thought that the Bai family's family status is not below your Zhang family, although Miao Hairpin is a little naughty, but she is also everyone's lady, why is your father so opposed?" ”

was mentioned by her like this, Zhang Zuolun felt strange, yes, if it is about family background and personality, Bai Miaoqi is all in line, why is he so opposed?

Ling Yi saw that he had already listened to it, and reminded him in a timely manner, "As the son of the Zhang family, you will be in charge of everything in the mansion in the future, I am not worried that you will not be able to shelter Miao Hairpin, in exchange for you are your father, the conditions of the Bai family are so good, but you have to resolutely oppose it, why do you think it is?" ”

Zhang Zuolun scratched his head and thought for a long time, and said tentatively: "The Zhang and Bai families have no source of hatred, is it because there are better in-laws than the Bai family?" ”

Ling Yi smiled, "Finally guessed correctly, do you remember that hunt, didn't your father say anything to you?" ”

Zhang Zuolun was stunned, of course his father said something to him that others shouldn't know, but how could he listen to Ling Yi's tone, as if he knew.

"I do know, not only do I know, but I also know that the person who is predetermined has already been chosen, and all of you are just acting with him in a play." Ling Yi said slowly.

Default?! Zhang Zuolun was completely stunned and swallowed his saliva, "What else do you know?" ”

In fact, Zhang Tianhao told him to behave well before the hunt, because the winner will be able to marry the princess of Ningguo.

Zhang Zuolun didn't believe it at first, and the person who won that day didn't marry the princess, so he left this matter behind.

But when Ling Yi mentioned it like this, he felt that his father did not agree with his relationship with the Bai family, and it was likely that he liked Princess Haining.

He didn't know what the benefits of marrying Princess Haining were, and Ling Yi explained: "If you can marry Princess Haining, not only will you be crowned the king of the county, but you will also be able to have 50,000 soldiers and horses of the Ning Kingdom, and become the emperor's henchman." ”

"Because of that, my father disagreed?" Zhang Zuolun was faintly angry, "He has never valued my happiness, but he is a county king with a foreign surname, 50,000 soldiers and horses, what is the great, it is worth him to use me like this." ”

"You don't value it, but others value it, and you know that the eldest young master of the palace family has become the emperor's predetermined candidate." Ling Yi sneered.

Zhang Zuolun was shocked again, Gong Xiru knew that although the latter was cold, he was upright, and although he didn't have much contact with the latter, he still admired and appreciated it.

Would such a person also give up his lifelong happiness for the sake of that little benefit?!

Ling Yi didn't want to provoke his relationship with Gong Xiru, so he said: "Young Master Gong has no choice, he was born in a rich family and enjoyed a comfortable life that ordinary people can't enjoy, so it is inevitable that he will have to pay some price."

Ordinary people can still marry the person they like, but the royal family and nobles can't choose, you have to do whatever you want, unless you can be your own master. ”

Zhang Zuolun was stunned in place, speechless for a while, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Ling Yi knew that the words had almost been spoken, and finally only said, "Think about it yourself", and left.

Zhang Zuolun still personally sent her out of the house, and then returned to his residence, pondered for a moment, but suddenly asked the maid: "Is my father back?" ”

The maid nodded: "The master has been back for half an hour, and the young master wants to go over to say goodbye?" ”

Zhang Zuolun thought left and right. Ling Yi's words kept going back in his mind, and it also made him understand that as long as Princess Haining was there. His marriage to Bai Miaojian is impossible.

Then let his father know that the palace family has become a candidate for the royal family, and Princess Haining is no longer possible, so he will definitely give up.

Thinking like this, Zhang Zuolun got up and went to Zhang Tianhao's study.

Zhang Tianhao was handling official business in the room, and when he heard a report from his subordinates that Zhang Zuolun was coming, he was a little surprised that the latter would go to the study to find him, while calling him in.

"Father" Zhang Zuolun bowed when he entered the door. By the way, all the people in the house will be dismissed.

Zhang Tianhao became more and more strange, put down the pen in his hand, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Father. I have something to say. Zhang Zuolun took a deep breath, and the firmness on his face made Zhang Tianhao have to take it seriously.

Zhang Tianhao also straightened up: "If you have anything to say, but if it's still for the Bai family, you don't have to bother talking." That thing anyway. I wouldn't agree with that. ”

was directly refused, Zhang Zuolun suddenly became angry, and said excitedly: "My father disagrees with my relationship with Miao Hai, because he still thinks that I can marry Princess Haining, but does my father also know that the emperor has already married Princess Haining to Gong Xiru." ”

"What did you say?" Zhang Tianhao's face sank, "Princess Haining has not yet been married to anyone, and I have told you too." The emperor will choose from the homes of the central officials, where did you hear such words. ”

was said by Ling Yi. Zhang Zuolun's heart became more and more sad, and his tone gradually became cold, "Father doesn't care where I heard it, it's just that before the hunting, the emperor had already decided on the palace family, and the hunting was just a game we played with the palace family." ”

"Nonsense." Zhang Tianhao shouted angrily: "It's nonsense, I just met Zhongtang Ling today, and he doesn't know about it." ”

Zhang Zuolun snorted, "What is the relationship between my father and Zhongtang Ling, why does he want to be honest with you, I just advised my father not to bet on Princess Haining, unless you can change the emperor's mind." ”

Zhang Tianhao suddenly stopped talking and fell into deep thought, Zhang Zuolun didn't know his relationship with the Gong family, and no one knew about his dealings with Gong Chengyan.

But as Zhang Zuolun said, Gong Chengyan couldn't tell him everything, and it was likely that he was still hiding anything from him.

Princess Haining is an opportunity for the Zhang family, if the latter can be welcomed into the door, then the Zhang family's status in the court will be as good as the sky.

The Gong family already has a supreme position in the court, if there is a princess Haining, then it is inevitable that everyone will look at him, including himself, this is not the result he likes to see.

Zhang Zuolun didn't think much about it, he just wanted his father to realize that it was impossible for the Zhang family to marry Princess Haining, so that his father would set his sights on the Bai family and agree to his relationship with Miao Hai.

But what he didn't expect was that Zhang Tianhao had derived another idea from this incident.

It is because the emperor trusts the palace family that he wants to assign Princess Haining to the palace family, so if the emperor is suspicious of Gong Chengyan, this marriage, the palace family will not be so easy.

Although he has an alliance with Gong Chengyan, he really doesn't have to think of him, in front of interests, who will not think about himself.

Thinking about it like this, he had an idea in his heart, let Zhang Zuolun retreat first, and he would change into court clothes and enter the palace again.

Before leaving, Zhang Zuolun stopped him and asked, "Father, will you not agree to my marriage with Miao Hairpin no matter what?" ”

Zhang Tianhao was already a little irritable because of Princess Haining, and was asked by him, he was immediately impatient, and scolded sharply, "Okay, this matter is over, I said, Zhang Bai's two families, it's impossible, you are not allowed to go to the Bai family in the future, let alone have any connection with the Bai Miaoqi, you have to remember that your target is Princess Haining." ”

Zhang Zuolun watched his father leave, his heart was indescribably sad, he suddenly understood Ling Yi's words, if his father did not agree, even if he insisted on marrying Bai Miaoqi, it would be impossible, unless he really had the ability to shelter him.

But can you do it yourself? Except for eating, drinking, and having fun, there will be nothing, this family will always be the father in charge, and whoever is his words is serious. (To be continued......)
