Chapter 204 Promise
"No, you stopped it."

Interrupting Hong Zhao, the third prince said confidently: "As long as you do what Gu said, aunt will definitely become suspicious."

After telling Hong Zhao what Zhang Zheng wanted to do, the third prince said, "You just need to talk to your aunt according to Gu's words, and Gu can arrange other things properly. If they are absolutely true, they are fake."

"But, if their identities are true. This is not only what the eldest princess has been looking forward to for many years, but also what my parents have been looking forward to for many years."

Even if it is heard, it can be seen that the third prince is bound to win Zhao Guoer.But Hong Zhao didn't agree, and showed a face of reluctance.

He shook his head in embarrassment and said: "You also know that Mingzhu disappeared in the Hong Mansion back then. Over the years, the eldest princess has always held a grudge. Because of this, the Holy Majesty does not like to see the Hong family very much, and the children of the Hong family are also struggling in the court because of this. If the identities of their mother and daughter are true now, it would be a great joy for the Hong family. If I deny their identities, once the matter is exposed, not only the eldest princess but also my parents will not forgive me."

Sighing, Hong Zhao said again: "Besides, Mingzhu is my daughter-in-law. Not only the eldest princess thinks about her, but also hopes that she will come back. Even I am the same. After all these years, I have been thinking about her all the time." I'm missing her. This tiger venom doesn't even eat its eggs, how can I do something that's worse than a beast?"

"Gu is just asking you to deny their identities on the surface, not to prevent your father and daughter, mother and daughter from reuniting. The mother and daughter Gu have met, and they are indeed very similar to the aunt. If the aunt likes to keep them to comfort the missing A woman's heart is naturally possible."

Even if it was Hong Zhao's refusal that made the third prince unhappy, but with Zhang Zheng's guidance in advance, Hong Zhao's reaction was within their expectations.Therefore, the third prince was still full of confidence, and continued to persuade Hong Zhao without any panic.

He smiled and said: "If their identities are true, Gu will definitely rectify their names in the future, and Guo'er will be the queen in the future. And Rou'er's brothers and sisters, after all these years, your most worrying thing Isn't it just their identities? At that time, apart from being able to rectify their names, I will give you a marquis as compensation in addition to the title of Duke Cheng En."

"Then, what if their identities are fake?" Hong Zhao couldn't help asking with a sudden heartbeat.

"If their identities are false, it would be better. Even if the queen's position cannot be given to Rou'er at the beginning, it will definitely be Rou'er's in the future. At that time, whether it is the title of Duke Cheng En or another Gu will still give you the position of marquis as promised."

Seeing that Hong Zhao was really tempted as Zhang Zheng said, the third prince was overjoyed, and what he didn't even think about was the promise, and he said with an affectionate look: "You also know that the only one who is sincere is to Rou'er Gu. It's just that Her status is not good enough to enter the palace, and Gu is reluctant to let her be embarrassed by the Zhou family. In the future, Gu will definitely give her an explanation, even if she cannot be given the position of queen, she will definitely be a noble concubine. Even the mother-in-law, I can seal her She is the wife of the country, and my aunt will naturally not be able to embarrass her anymore."

"Your Highness, you are the king, and the subject should naturally put your great cause first."

As soon as he heard that the third prince had even taken care of his heart knots over the years, the balance in Hong Zhao's heart immediately tilted completely, and he stood up and bowed his hands to the third prince respectfully.

"Okay. Father-in-law, don't worry, as long as Gu ascends to the high position, the voice of father-in-law Gu can be called out in a fair and honest manner."

Seeing that Hong Zhao was easier to persuade than he and Zhang Zheng thought, it was just a few promises, and he agreed to himself without showing any real sincerity right now, the third prince was immediately overjoyed.

"Okay, the minister will wait."

Hong Zhao was also happy, and followed Pang Mei on board the third prince's boat.Even though the third prince kept calling himself "father-in-law" in private, calling him very affectionately, he never gave him any real promises.

Sometimes I think that I can't really do anything for the third prince, and I'm not valued by him very much. Even if the third prince ascends the throne in the future, I and the Hong family may not be able to get enough benefits.

But if the third prince is defeated, he and the Hong family will be greatly implicated, and even the family may be ransacked and wiped out.Thinking about it, Hong Zhao was full of fear and regret in his heart, and he didn't blame Pang Mei for pulling the eldest daughter to cling to the third prince without telling him, so that he had to board the third prince's boat and never get off again.

But thinking about Pang Mei's behavior, it was all for the sake of her own children. These years, the eldest princess has been too domineering.She cannot give birth, nor will she allow herself to give birth.

If it's really up to her, don't she deserve to be extinct?
now……

Although he might feel sorry for Mingzhu, didn't the third prince also say that he didn't prevent them from staying in the eldest princess's mansion.The big deal, the big deal is that I can persuade the eldest princess to keep them and let them live a life of glory and wealth.

Thinking, even if it is a real pearl, it should be wronged for the sake of the father's family.Hong Zhao immediately felt at ease.

Saying goodbye to the third prince, he got permission to visit his eldest daughter Hong Rou, and not surprisingly, he also saw his grandson Zhao Yi, who was still in his infancy and looked smart.

"Father, why are you here?" Seeing Hong Zhao, Hong Rou was overjoyed, "Did His Highness also come together?"

"Yes. Your Highness said to come see you later." Hong Zhao nodded, and said lovingly, "Just now His Highness praised you for taking good care of this place, and Kua Yier was also well-bred."

"Really?" Hong Rou blushed as she spoke, and asked with high spirits, "Your Highness really said that?"

"Of course it's true. Why did I lie to you?" Hong Zhao said, winking at Hong Rou and said, "Your mother has been saying that she misses you these days, and even pickled you a lot by herself." Let her bring you your favorite radish another day."

What I saw was my own father, and there is also a saying that female colleges avoid their fathers.

It's good to be able to see, Hong Rou doesn't dare to let the other maids who are serving around her step down like when her mother came, leaving only her confidants.

Seeing Hong Zhaoshi's wink at this time, I was curious but could only hold back.When he heard him mention his mother, he immediately comprehended it and said joyfully, "It's fine if you don't mention it. I really wish I could taste the dried radish pickled by mother herself right away."

Hong Rou pretended to be angry and said to Hong Zhao: "You really are, why don't you help me bring some to satisfy my hunger after you've come here today?"

"Since you think about it, let your mother-in-law deliver it tomorrow."

The third prince walked in and said to Hong Rou with a smile: "I have business to do these few days, I'm afraid I won't be able to come again for some time. How about letting mother-in-law stay with you for a few more days?"

"Thank you Your Highness, this concubine knows that you are the best for this concubine."

Hearing that the third prince might not be here for at least ten days, Hong Rou felt a little unhappy.But in front of her own father Hong Zhao, she couldn't act like a baby to the third prince, so she could only pretend to be happy while avoiding Hong Zhao's resentful eyes to look at the third prince.

Knowing that Hong Rou couldn't bear to part with her, the third prince immediately laughed with a cheerful "haha".
