Chapter 421: Unexpected
When Han Tingjun and Zhang Da went back to their rooms to rest, at the other end of Shengjing City, Zhao Kuo braved the wind and snow, avoided the eyeliner that Han Mingche planted around the Zhao Mansion, and quietly fell into the backyard of the Zhao Mansion.
Qiao Jinyu hadn't slept yet, and was playing chess with He Jin waiting for him to come back.
The moment he pushed the door in, the two of them stopped their movements and raised their eyes to look at him.
"Coming back so soon?" He Jinzhi raised an eyebrow.
"Looking at you like this, I know that you failed to convince Han Tingjun's stubborn donkey."
"Looks like I'll have to go for myself tomorrow."
Dusting off the snow on his shoulders, Zhao Kuo walked behind the screen and changed the night clothes on his body.
Coming out from behind the screen, he poured a cup of hot tea and drank it, then sat down in a soft chair.
"There are also eyeliners planted by Han Mingche around the Meng Mansion." Zhao Kuo calmly stated the facts.
"Then have you seen my ninth brother?" Qiao Jinyu asked.
Zhao Kuo bowed slightly.
"I saw it, and I conveyed my senior's words word for word, but he didn't nod."
"Before I come back, I have asked Meng Gongzi to persuade him for me."
"If Meng Gongzi can't convince him, I'm afraid that even if the seniors go out in person, the result will be the same."
Zhao Kuo did not have much contact with Meng Jinhong.
The only time I had a deep conversation was the time when I went to the Meng family with Qiao Jinyu to see his daughter.
Zhao Kuo thought that Meng Jinhong might have been disheartened by the power of officialdom and didn't want to get involved.
But if he dragged his family with him, even if it was for the safety of his family, he would persuade Han Tingjun to take over the government.
And he is Han Tingjun's brother-in-law, and the relationship is naturally closer than that of others.
If he came forward to persuade him, Han Tingjun might listen to him.
He Jinzhi's eyebrows were lightly raised, and his expression was very arrogant.
"Not necessarily. The so-called fierce women are afraid of pestering Lang, and Confucian scholars are afraid of talking. ”
"If I go out in person, I will definitely use my three-inch incorruptible tongue to entangle him until he is dizzy and nods his head in agreement!"
Qiao Jinyu glanced at He Jin.
Confucian scholars are afraid of talking?
I'm afraid that only he He Jinzhi can think of this.
But then again, when it comes to eloquence, she has to admit that among the three of them, he is indeed more powerful.
If he comes forward, he may really be able to convince her ninth brother.
Seeing that it was not too early, the three of them didn't talk for long.
The three agreed that if there was still no news from Han Tingjun's side tomorrow afternoon, he would go to Meng's house again at night.
To the surprise of the three of them, not long after dawn on the second day, Han Tingjun sent Zhang Da to sneak into Zhao's mansion and send a message to Zhao Kuo, saying that he had thought it through and reassured Zhao Kuo.
At that time, Qiao Jinyu had not woken up yet, and Zhang Da left after passing the word, and Zhao Kuo closed the door and returned to the house.
Looking at the people on the bed, thinking that he was cold outside just now, Zhao Kuo didn't go back to bed to rest after all, he sat down on the soft couch after getting dressed, and picked up the military book on the side to read it.
It took about three quarters of an hour for Qiao Jinyu to wake up in a daze.
Finding that there was no one on the side, she raised her eyes to take a look in the room, and finally found Zhao Kuo's figure on the soft couch.
"General, when did you get up? I don't know?"
Qiao Jinyu sat up, scooped up the coat next to her and put it on.
"It didn't take long for Zhang Da to come over just now to pass the word, and your ninth brother has already figured it out." Zhao Kuo said.
"Wait until tonight, he will personally go to see Prime Minister Han Cheng and Qingguo Gong."
"Prime Minister Han Cheng and Qingguo Gong?" Qiao Jinyu's apricot eyes flashed, "Aren't they my eldest brother's people?" ”
