Chapter 279: A helpless move

At night, the moonlight is enchanting. Since the banquet turmoil in the General's Mansion during the day, each has its own story staged in the corner.

Since returning from the banquet, Zhao Mingqi has sulked in his room. He has always been an angry person, and he rarely allows himself to have too fluctuating emotions. He didn't expect to achieve his goal in one fell swoop, but at least he could drag it out and buy some time for his plan.

But what he never expected was that all kinds of layouts were resolved by Zhao Yujiao. It's really ridiculous, he never underestimated Zhao Yujiao, but he didn't want to lose so easily and embarrassed.

Let him go back to Donglin like this? No, no way! Before the great cause is accomplished, he will not go back empty-handed like this.

Zhao Mingqi thought of Donglin's homeland, thinking that he had been wandering abroad all these years for this purpose. Back then, I thought that men were ambitious in all directions, and they should establish a meritorious career. Now he is also serving the country with sincere blood.

Zhao Mingqi was thinking about his next step when there was a knock on the door.

"My lord, Donglin Secret Letter."

"Bring it." Zhao Mingqi responded in a slightly tired voice.

After Zhao Mingqi borrowed the secret letter, he dismissed the shadow guard and slowly opened the letter in the shadow of the candlelight.

It's the second uncle's letter, what is he going to do? As the head of the Zhao family, the second uncle should have some task for him. Oh, I don't know if the content of the letter can help him delay the beam for a few days.

With such a mentality, Zhao Mingqi opened the letterhead and read it.

The candles flickered, and the branches outside the window were scattered by the wind, drawing a long phantom in the house. Messy and disorganized, just like Zhao Mingqi after reading the letter.

What the?! After reading the letter, he was filled with only this greater doubt.

Zhao Mingqi's already chaotic heart was even more chaotic in shock. He managed to compose himself and scrutinized what he had just seen.

What was written in the letter was a task, but it was not the "task" he wanted.

The second uncle asked him to take Zhao Yujiao back to Donglin, because she was the princess of Donglin!

It was an old secret. Zhao Yujiao's biological mother is the princess of Donglin, and she should have grown up in Donglin. Back then, her mother was framed by the concubine, so she staged a drama of orphanage.

Her biological mother instructed her on her deathbed to send her henchmen to send Zhao Yujiao to her friend. That woman was the friend she met in Daliang when she was a child, and she was also Zhao Yuanzhi's wife and the former head mother of the Zhao family.

Therefore, Zhao Yujiao is not Zhao Yuanzhi's daughter, but their princess!

"Hehehe, haha."

Zhao Mingqi let out a gloomy laugh, and the seven points were divided into the karma of this world, and the creation made people. Three points are laughing at themselves, not yet out of one predicament, and into another stalemate.

If it were in the past, he would not take it to heart about such things between palace ladies and women, and all kinds of grievances and battles in the harem. Tell him so formally that he has no interest in finding a princess after losing it. But he just told him that Zhao Yujiao was a princess today, after he lost to Zhao Yujiao, and when he wanted to stay in Daliang so much, he told him that Zhao Yujiao was a princess.

Does this help?

The head of the family asked him to take Zhao Yujiao back to Donglin, not to mention that how to take it away was a problem, why did he risk this trap to bring back a big trouble to Donglin.

He came to Daliang this time to start a war and capture Daliang. If he takes Zhao Yujiao back to Donglin, her identity, her words and deeds will inevitably hinder his plan. What a clever remark she would have to maintain the existing stability between the two countries.

This kind of situation, not to mention what he wants to see.

The current dilemma is not what he wants, he will never take Zhao Yujiao to Donglin, and he will not easily disobey the orders of the head of the family.

Zhao Mingqi was illuminated by the candlelight, and the elongated shadow blended with the shadows of the trees outside the window. There is no winter moon and cold stars in his eyes, and there is no light and shadow at all.

Just staring at the jumping candle flame and thinking quietly. The letter paper in his hand was about to shatter and disintegrate in his palm, which was becoming more and more closed.

He slowly looked at the letter in his hand and stared at it for a long time. Suddenly I thought of something, hooked the corners of my lips, and my eyes regained their brilliance.

Who said that offense and defense cannot be easily formed. He finally decided to disobey the order of the head of the family and gave Qin Tianze a big gift.

"Someone, send a letter to General Qin for me."

Zhao Mingqi repacked the letter, handed it to the attendant who came in outside the door, and added another sentence.

"Let's just say, the letter related to Mrs. Zun."

"Yes, the villain will do it."

The squire took the order and disappeared into the room.

Zhao Mingqi took the tea on the side and tasted it. The smile that did not retreat was like a ghost in the dancing light and shadow. His long shadow also "ate" the shadow of the tree outside the window in the candlelight that was about to burn out.

When the little servant came to knock on the door, Qin Tianze was in the study to get used to the military books.

"General, the envoy in the front yard has a letter to deliver."

Letter? Qin Tianze was curious, what could Zhao Mingqi say to him?

He called the little servant in, and after taking the letter, he did not open it at first, but looked down to see if there was anything unusual. Zhao Mingqi is difficult to wait for the villain, in case he takes a risk and borrows the letter, what kind of medicine will he take. After all, today's actions really ruined his face and ruined his plan.

Qin Tianze raised his hand to signal the little guy to step back, but saw that the little guy didn't move, but twisted a little, as if he had something to say.

"What's wrong?"

Aren't there any other articles in this?

The little guy didn't dare to speak rashly because of the matter related to his wife, and since the general asked, he would report it truthfully.

"They also attached a sentence saying that the letter was related to Madame."

Jiaojiaoer? A wave of anger came up, could it be that Zhao Mingqi and they were still paying attention to Jiao'er?

After the little guy retreated, Qin Tianze hurriedly opened the envelope.

The strange state of the letter paper attracted Qin Tianze's attention, and the brittle letter paper was clearly pinched by someone.

He pondered in his heart that this letter was not written by Zhao Mingqi, but he sent it after reading it. What kind of content would make that well-disguised "humble gentleman" lose his temper......

Qin Tianze's curiosity was aroused, and he looked at it carefully at the moment.

When the moon crawled from one place in the clouds to another, Qin Tianze also put down the letter in his hand.

"Oh, that's ridiculous." He slapped the letter on his desk. Calm your mind and begin to calm your mind.

"Zhao Mingqi, Zhao Mingqi, I thought you had some clever means, but you were just dying and struggling, making such an inferior counter-plan."

Qin Tianze wanted to tear up the letter paper, but he stopped. He put it back in the envelope and put it away properly.

The moon of this night slowly disappeared, and I didn't know how to hide in that shadow.
