Chapter 71: Father's Foresight
Suddenly, Shao Ziqing's heart ignited with anger, and he raised his hand to grab Jiang Zuiyao's shirt and pull him closer to his face.
Jiang Zuiyao only felt that she was pulled by a strong force, and she didn't take a step under her feet, and she fell down on Jiang Zuiyao's chest all of a sudden, and she couldn't help but finger to help Shao Ziqing's arm, her fingers were injured, and she screamed in pain for a while: "Ah!! ”
Shao Ziqing didn't care about Jiang Zuiyao's pain at the moment, her eyes pressed on Jiang Zuiyao's face fiercely, and she said hysterically: "Do you know the consequences of angering me? Don't think that if I give you back again and again, I won't dare to do anything to you! ”
Linghui on the side was frightened, it was not the first time she saw Shao Ziqing angry, and begged for mercy: "Young master is angry!" ”
At this time, it happened that Jiang Huai walked to the door, and when he saw this scene, his face was shocked, and he hurriedly rushed in: "Shao Ziqing, this is Shangshu Mansion!" ”
When Shao Ziqing saw Jiang Huai coming, she wanted to give him some affection, snorted coldly, and pushed Jiang Zuiyao out.
Jiang Zuiyao was pushed by this, and her body couldn't help but lean back, but fortunately, Jiang Huai's eyes were quick and she helped her in time.
Jiang Zuiyao stood up with Jiang Huai's support and stared at Shao Ziqing viciously.
Jiang Huai hurriedly explained: "What's the matter, why be so angry." ”
Shao Ziqing flicked his sleeves angrily, sat on the chair angrily, and said angrily: "Lord Jiang, why did you raise such a rebellious daughter?" ”
Jiang Huai knew Shao Ziqing's violent temper, and hurriedly said: "It's the minister's teaching. ”
Shao Ziqing was in a terrible mood, and he didn't have time to talk nonsense about them, so he said bluntly: "Lord Jiang is Jiang Zuiyao's father, so I won't talk much nonsense, Lord Jiang is also the opposite of Cheng, right?" ”
Jiang Huai's face sank and said, "Yes." ”
Jiang Huai hurriedly said helplessly: "I already know the ins and outs of this matter. ”
After that, Shao Ziqing lifted Erlang's legs, stroked the folds on his robe, and said lightly: "Master Jiang, maybe I can help you." ”
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Huai was shocked, and Jiang Zuiyao was also a little surprised.
Jiang Zuiyao looked at Shao Ziqing's indifferent appearance, and couldn't guess what Shao Ziqing thought, he was not the kind of kind-hearted and compassionate person, and he must have some purpose.
Jiang Huai also guessed this, and asked tentatively: "I don't know what you want me to do?" ”
Shao Ziqing smiled weirdly: "I want Lord Jiang's support." ”
Jiang Huai's eyes lit up, he was a veteran who was good at playing Tai Chi in officialdom, and he was tactful in life and work, but at this moment, in the face of Shao Ziqing's request, Jiang Huai had to care.
In just a few seconds, Jiang Huai's mind thought too much, so much that he didn't know how to answer.
Jiang Zuiyao, who was standing on the side, watched the matter develop to the point where Shao Ziqing wanted to intervene, she was a little obstructive, and asked with a cold face, "What do you mean by this?" Is it a quid pro quo? ”
Shao Ziqing still sat there leisurely, very calmly: "Sort of." ”
Jiang Zuiyao frowned: "But I don't want to exchange conditions with you, at least, I don't need your support." ”
Shao Ziqing raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure?" It's not that I'm boasting, if I help, you're the icing on the cake, you may not know my ability to do things, but your father has been with me for many years, you should know. ”
In the face of Shao Ziqing's self-confidence, Jiang Zuiyao couldn't help but feel that he was a little too narcissistic.
But in fact, Master Jiang really didn't say anything, and the expression on his face was also acquiescing.
Shao Ziqing then said: "Actually, you should be glad that I am also quite interested in this matter, otherwise you think I will allow you to inquire about this matter?" ”
Jiang Zuiyao is undeniable about this.
Jiang Huai, who had never spoken, also thought a lot during this period, so he opened his mouth: "You can help in this matter, as you said, it is indeed the icing on the cake." ”
Shao Ziqing smiled and said, "Master Jiang will make it clearer." ”
Jiang Huai frowned: "The so-called different ways do not conspire with each other, since we are all like-minded people now, then why don't I agree?" ”
Jiang Huai said this very clearly.
What is like-mindedness?
Jiang Huai, a veteran of officialdom, has long seen through everything.
At this time, Jiang Huai said again: "Zui Yao is still young, and it is inevitable that she will not see some things thoroughly, can you let me take her to borrow a step to speak and ask her a few words." ”
Shao Ziqing did not stop him, and said generously: "This place is Lord Jiang's mansion, and Jiang Zuiyao is your daughter, you can do it yourself." ”
Jiang Huai then glanced at Jiang Zuiyao and gave Jiang Zuiyao a look, and Jiang Zuiyao followed Jiang Huai to the back hall.
This place is very secluded, and since it is the place Jiang Huai is looking for, it must be a safe place.
Jiang Zuiyao said unscrupulously: "Father, do you really want to join forces with Shao Ziqing?" He's always cunning. ”
Jiang Huai breathed a sigh of relief helplessly: "Now that it's over, do I have any other choice?" ”
Such an answer may seem weak, but it is true.
A trace of sadness appeared on Jiang Huai's face: "Things have come to this point, we can't pass Shao Ziqing's level." Shao Ziqing also wants to meddle in this matter, otherwise do you think he will let you go home? Therefore, looking at the overall situation, we can only compromise. ”
Jiang Zuiyao was also quite helpless, and said to herself: "It's me who didn't consider cause and effect, if I knew such a result, I wouldn't have said anything that day and wouldn't go to the military department with him." ”
Jiang Huai immediately shook his head: "It's useless to say these things now, in fact, having Shao Ziqing to help me is not necessarily a bad thing." ”
Jiang Zuiyao frowned, took two steps back and forth, and asked, "Father, what are you going to do?" Is it so mysterious? ”
Jiang Huai smiled, smiling very frivolously: "This is not something you should worry about, the marriage between the Shao family and the Jiang family is a good thing, and now your sister has entered the palace as a concubine, and she is deeply favored by His Majesty, and she can be regarded as being able to contribute to our family, so the affairs of the Shao family depend on you." ”
Jiang Zuiyao bit her lip, although she didn't know what her father was going to do, she knew that he was hiding his selfishness.
Jiang Huai patted Jiang Zuiyao on the shoulder: "Things are far from being as simple as you think. I only told you that if you get rid of the muddy waters of officialdom, there will be no turning back. ”
"Officialdom?" , Jiang Zuiyao said firmly.
Jiang Huai nodded: "You are now deeply favored by the Queen Mother, and now you have caused this incident, you have already offended the prince, and there is a Shao Ziqing in the middle." ”
Jiang Zuiyao looked a little unhappy: "This is what I hate the most, is it possible that whatever you want to do in the future must be approved by him?" He won't allow it, I can't do it yet? ”
"You are his wife now, after all, and there is a saying that people under the eaves have to bow their heads. It's a complicated thing, you know? ”
Of course, Jiang Zuiyao understands the truth, she is not a fool.
She nodded slowly, and Jiang Huai said, "Let's go back, don't let Shao Ziqing wait too long." ”
The two returned to the front hall, Jiang Huai and Shao Ziqing said a few words, and they promised to support Shao Ziqing in the government in the future.
