Chapter 246: Jiang Zhishou

In the past month, Sun Lulu and Zuo Xiang have had many disputes, and the father-daughter relationship between the two has gradually faded a lot in this constant dispute.

"That's right! You're right! When my grandfather comes, there will be no one to stop me from doing anything! Thinking of the days after her grandfather and his family came to the capital, Sun Lulu was full of anticipation, and then she began to tell Xiaocui, "By the way, Xiaocui, you go and clean up the house where your grandfather and their family want to live, so that when your grandfather and they arrive in the capital, they can move in directly, and don't tell my father about this matter first!" "She was afraid that if she told her father, something would go wrong!

"The slave knows, miss, don't worry!" Xiao Cui patted her chest and assured confidently.

……

Jiang Wangfu –

"Lord Wang, Old Man Jiang's family will arrive in the capital in three days." In the study, the housekeeper of King Jiang's Mansion said to King Jiang who was sitting behind the desk.

"Old Man Jiang?" Jiang Wang raised his head and raised his eyebrows, "Zuo Xiang's Yue family? ”

"Yes." The butler nodded.

Jiang Wang put down the brush, then leaned back, leaned back on the chair, and asked with a puzzled face: "Why did their family remember to go back to the capital?" "Old man Jiang, originally called Jiang Zhishou, was once a general of this dynasty and made many achievements. Later, he resigned as a general, and moved to a city in the south with his family to settle down, and since then he has not set foot in the capital for more than ten years, why did he suddenly come back now?

The housekeeper replied: "According to the report of the spy, it is because Zuo Xiang's daughter once wrote a letter asking Old Man Jiang's family to return to the capital, so he came back. ”

"Sun Lulu?" King Jiang was even more surprised, "This old man Jiang really dotes on his granddaughter, and he actually returned to Beijing because of a letter." He thought about it again, knocked on the table, and then thought of the matter between Sun Lulu and Zhao Kangcheng, so he almost guessed Sun Lulu's plan, "I'm afraid this Sun Lulu wants to borrow his grandfather's power to get what he wants...... Has Zhao Kangcheng left to return to Beijing? ”

Butler: "Let's go, now the people are on the way." ”

Jiang Wang: "Well, go down, continue to stare at Sun Lulu and the Jiang family." Oh yes, find a chance to tell Zuo Xiang about this. ”

"Yes!" The butler answered, and left the study.

On the other hand, the crown prince, like King Jiang, also got the fact that Jiang Zhishou was about to arrive in the capital, and also guessed Sun Lulu's plan like King Jiang, at that time the three princes and the prince were in the prince's study, when he heard the news, the prince and the prince thought differently, and the prince said to the prince:

"Prince, in that case, why don't we help Sun Lulu? If he helps Sun Lulu achieve what he wants, maybe he will use this to get the help of Old Man Jiang's family, after all, Old Man Jiang is still very prestigious in the army. ”

The prince was noncommittal about Taifu's proposal, and said in a cold voice: "The teacher is confused, no matter how prestigious Jiang Zhishou was before, now he is just a civilian without an official position, although he has prestige in the army, but if he rashly intervenes in the army by his hand, and is known by his father, I am afraid that he will be very angry, after all, how can a small ordinary person meddle in the affairs of the court?" Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in the prince's eyes, but the corners of his lips hooked up a sneer.

No matter how much Jiang Zhishou has made great achievements in the past, it is impossible for the emperor to allow him to use his previous prestige to meddle in the affairs of the army or even the court after his resignation! The emperor can respect him for his previous merits, but this respect is not for Jiang Zhishou to use for personal use! To the Son of Heaven to repay the kindness? I am not afraid of the blood of the Son of Heaven under the wrath of the Son of Heaven!

After listening to the prince's words, the Taifu had an epiphany, and said very ashamedly: "The old minister is indeed confused, it is not as clear as His Highness." He only thought that Jiang Zhishou was very prestigious in the army before, but he forgot that Jiang Zhishou was just a flat-headed ordinary man now.

The third prince was listening to the conversation between the two, and he also knew that the prince wanted to sell a favor to Zhao Kangcheng in the matter of Sun Lulu, so that Zhao Kangcheng could help him in the court in the future, so he touched his chin and said: "Actually, I think that instead of bothering to stare at that Sun Lulu, it is better to ask your father for a holy decree to marry Sun Lulu to me, so that not only can you sell a favor to Zhao Kangcheng, but you can even get the help of Jiang Zhishou's family, in this way, isn't it the best of both worlds?" ”

Regarding the third prince's strategy, the crown prince glanced at him and directly vetoed: "Impossible." ”

"Why?" The third prince looked at him puzzled, "I think my plan is perfect!" As he spoke, a trace of incomprehension appeared on the third prince's face.

"Huh!" The prince sneered, "Sun Lulu is happy with Zhao Kangcheng, if you forcibly marry her back to the house, it will only make her hate you, a person who hates you, do you think she will help you?" ”

"Yes." The third prince felt that what the prince said was very reasonable, but, "But after all, he sold a favor to Zhao Kangcheng, didn't he?" "There's always a benefit anyway.

"Where did the favor come from? Now Sun Lulu has not done any substantial harm to Zhao Kangcheng and his wife, where did you get the favor to sell him? And who in Beijing doesn't know that your third prince is happy with Sun Lulu? I'm afraid that when the time comes, people will only think that your third prince wants to marry that Sun Lulu, and it has nothing to do with Zhao Kangcheng! The prince struck.

"Then according to the emperor's intentions, my plan is very useless?" The third prince leaned back in his chair as if he was weak.

"It's useless." The prince said very politely.

The third prince pursed his lips and stopped talking.

The Taifu on the side, seeing that the two brothers finished speaking, couldn't help but ask the question that had always existed in his heart: "Third prince, do you really like that Sun Lulu?" But why does the old minister feel that it doesn't seem to be like it? When he heard that Sun Lulu liked Zhao Kangcheng, the third prince did not show any anger, and even discussed with them with great interest how to win over Zhao Kangcheng, such a strange reaction made Taifu very puzzled.

The third prince smiled: "Taifu said this, I naturally like it." ”

"But you didn't have the slightest anger when you heard that Sun Lulu was happy with Zhao Kangcheng." Taifu said. I wonder if I am old, or do I not understand what young people think today?

The third prince said: "What do I have to be angry about, what if Sun Lulu likes Zhao Kangcheng, Zhao Kangcheng doesn't like him, and he also has a wife, this prince and I are not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, how can I be angry with him for no reason." ”
