Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 175 Do You Like Me?

Zhao Yantao was wounded by a court stick, and he was unwilling to be a carriage. He carried the sedan chair all the way from the East Palace to Cheng Cheng's house. Although he had a bad complexion, his expression was relaxed, and he didn't seem to take this punishment seriously.However, Cheng Fu ordered people to prepare thick cushions, and the backrest was replaced with plush ones, to make him as comfortable as possible.

"If you choose me for the Zhang family's case, it won't be the result." He was a little dissatisfied.

Cheng Fu knew that sooner or later the other party would come to the door for this matter, so he explained in a good voice: "Only Dali Temple has the courage to pursue the Zhang family's case to the end. , what will the emperor think of Mr. Xu? Besides, you do not lack this political achievement."

Zhao Yantao took a sip of tea, "Then do you know why the emperor has not made a decision so far?"

Cheng Fu refilled him with tea, "No matter what the emperor is thinking, it may not be a bad thing for you."

Zhao Yantao became a little interested, "How do you say that?"

"The law of Da Yue is there, no matter how biased the emperor is, he can't slap himself in the face. I guess the position of right minister will be handed over in peace, and then the Zhang family will inevitably be cleaned up. If it were you, you would like to have a lot of talents Will the old family decline, or will the old tree be cut down and new shoots left?"

"Sprout?"

Cheng Fu remained silent, letting him think for himself.

Of course Zhao Yantao didn't need her to explain in such detail.

"Are you not wronged at all?" He didn't believe it.

Cheng Fu smiled wryly, "As long as the Zhang family has not been caught with conclusive evidence of rebellion, your father will not let them be destroyed. I am just a humble citizen, and my grievances are nothing compared to the superior monarch."

She didn't tell Zhao Yantao that even if the Zhang family would not be destroyed, life would not be much easier.Now the gangs in the capital are eyeing them, and the Zhang family will not be able to recover in ten or eight years.As for what Da Viet will look like ten years later, no one knows whether the Zhang family will still have the current situation after losing Zhang Xiang.

Zhao Yantao suddenly felt a little guilty, and felt that Emperor Chengqi was not kind.But this is the end of the matter, and further discussion will not change anything. "I have something to do when I come over tonight, the Chen family, stop for now."

A look of surprise flashed across Cheng Fu's eyes, "What does your Highness mean?"

"Right now, Dali Temple is still investigating the Zhang family for other crimes. The Chen family has been in close contact with the Zhang family in the past few years, and they have been implicated in many ways. Your uncle... Chen Chaohe wanted to protect himself, so he asked me for it." Zhao Yantao thought that the Chen family was so sudden. The urgency was not necessarily because he was afraid of being dragged into the quagmire by the Zhang family, but because he was worried about the brothers and sisters of the Cheng family.

Seeing the little girl drank her tea without reply, Zhao Yantao was a little displeased, but he could understand.Although the actions of the Chen family were not as extreme as those of the Zhang family and the Gu family, but choosing to stand in line was an attitude.Now the brothers and sisters of the Cheng family succeeded in revenge, but what about the other way around?The Chen family is afraid that they will be the executioners with the Zhang family.

Back then, if he had been standing idly by, not embarrassing their former servants, not helping the Zhang family to trouble their brothers and sisters, and taking good care of Chen Mengling, he wouldn't even be able to be a nodding relative.

The Chen family is undefeated, and the background is there, but they can't stand it now that Cheng Han and Cheng Fu brothers and sisters are the reason.The dark side can't solve them, and the bright side is even more difficult.Today's Cheng Han and Cheng Fu are no longer children who are bullied by people's faces. They are bad and not afraid of death.

"I need them." As a last resort, Zhao Yantao confessed honestly.

Cheng Fu finally said, "You use yours and I work on mine. Isn't this a conflict? If you rely on the backing of the Eastern Palace to dictate to us brothers and sisters, and hinder our relationship with you, our brothers and sisters have to swallow it... What do you think? It's not worth it."

"What is the purpose of our brothers and sisters not staying in Jiangnan, which has become a situation, and returning to Beijing with our family?" She looked at each other with bright eyes.

It didn't make sense, Zhao Yantao was a little depressed.On the one hand, he wants to use the Chen family, on the other hand, he puts himself in the position of the little brother and sister, and it is difficult for him to let go.

"Your Highness, did the Chen family want you to be this lobbyist, or did you want to support the Chen family? You are the crown prince, and the Chen family is passive because of the Zhang family's affairs. How can you have the nerve to make so many unreasonable demands on you?" You are the one who wants to sit in that position, who is not born to respect you? What's the matter, is this unreasonable person still acting as your master?" Cheng Fu laughed.

"We will never reconcile with the Chen family, the Gu family, the Zhang family, and Prince Rui. This is our personal grievance. What does it have to do with your country? Da Yue will fail without these families. Once the emperor and the courtiers, Don’t you give them face like this to fuel their arrogance? Shouldn’t you pay more attention to the upstarts? I see that Gu Qianhu, who assisted Dali Temple in handling the case this time, is a talent.”

Zhao Yantao looked at her face fixedly, and the thought popped up in his mind again: If Cheng Fu was born a few years earlier, wouldn't there be nothing wrong with Min Qinyue?This kind of character that doesn't take things seriously really suits him.

"Change the tea, it's too bad to drink." He couldn't bear it.

Cheng Fu was baffled, this tea was already the best at home, and it was the top tea house in Jinling, so how could it be rejected.She couldn't help but want to go to the East Palace to taste the tea that was specially provided for the royal family to see how amazing it is.

Xu Ze and Guang Zhi came to see Xu Ye, and were a little surprised to learn that the prince was there.

Butt up so fast?
Zhao Yantao saw Cheng Fu's obedient salute to Xu Ze, opened his mouth, and almost lost his composure.This dead girl saluted him more and more perfunctorily, and she didn't even exist well-behaved. He thought she treated everyone like this.

But being able to meet Xu Ze in private was a rare opportunity for Zhao Yantao, so he put Cheng Fu aside and chatted with Xu Ze on his own.Cheng Fu didn't care, and told the waiter to prepare some supper, and then took Xu Ye back to the big study.

Recently, she has been busy choosing the annual ceremony in the tavern, and she also has to write another chapter of "Second Miss". There are many things to do by herself.

"Hey, I wouldn't dare to talk to him like that before." She suddenly smirked.

Xu Ye was sitting next to him just now, but he didn't make a sound. Now that he was so happy to see the other party, he held his cheek, "Huh?"

"Maybe because my confidence is you and my brother."

Xu Ye shook his head, "Your confidence comes from yourself."

The little girl also loves to hear these words, "The mouth is so sweet."

Wuyifang Wharf

At this time, no one is willing to come, except for drunkards who have gone the wrong way.Cheng Han stood on the half-missed stone steps, looking thoughtfully at the rushing water.Not long after, a simple carriage without an emblem appeared and stopped on the platform by the shore.A woman dressed as a servant girl got out of the carriage with a lantern, and Tingting walked over here.

"Sir." She squatted down respectfully.

Probably growing up in the palace since she was a child, her etiquette always makes people feel respected while making no mistakes.

"You want to see me?" There was only doubt on the boy's face.

"Yes."

The question on the boy's face deepened, "What do you want?"

The disappearance of Prince Rui's son was a meticulous plan from beginning to end.

The guests that Mrs. Zhang had to come out to entertain were facilitated by Xiang Xin, Yu Suqiu, and Ye Xiaobei; in the warm pavilion where Xiaoshizi played hide-and-seek, she had hidden a little maid in advance, and she was the one who put the child in a cloth bag. Hanging under the window sill, and hitting a cabinet not far away with a hidden weapon, this sound misled the servants who were playing hide-and-seek with Xiao Shizi, they all thought that Xiao Shizi had hidden in the cabinet.

While everyone was looking for the child, the little maid took advantage of the chaos and left the Nuan Pavilion, but the cloth bag hanging outside the window sill had long since disappeared.

The child was hidden in the less guarded concubine's yard, where there was a large tree with a large, well-screened bird's nest.After the Zhang family searched the Nuan Pavilion, the child was sent back.

Xiao Shizi didn't cry when he woke up. Apart from the familiar environment, there was another reason, that is, he was accompanied by a familiar person, and this person was Yun Jue.

As Prince Rui's woman and the female officer next to Zhang Wanqing, the young Prince Rui's son was heartlessly happy when he saw her, so he couldn't detect anything strange.And Yun Jue used to take care of him from time to time, and knew his temperament and preferences very thoroughly, so it was rare for him to lose his temper.

Later, the Zhang family was about to start the next round of more thorough search, Yun Jue coaxed him to find his father and mother, Prince Rui believed it, and under the cover of Cheng Han's people, he happily followed Yun Jue and left Zhang Family.

They took him around the city, bought a lot of toys, and ate a lot of snacks that children like. Whenever he was tired and sleepy, they would take him back to the Zhang family or Prince Rui's residence to stay for a while.

Every time Xiaoshizi wakes up, he is in a familiar environment, and there are familiar people in front of him, so he is very relieved. Yun Jue even took him around in a small area of ​​Prince Rui's mansion, but he didn't realize that they were gone, but Every time, it cleverly avoided people.He thought everyone knew he was there, when in fact no one had seen him at all.

Of course, most of the time, Cheng Han's people and Yun Jue took him out on the grounds of looking for his parents, and only went back to Zhang's house or Prince Rui's mansion to sleep when he was tired from playing, so as to make sure that he woke up in a familiar environment every day.In this way, when others ask him in the future, there will be no substantial gains.

Originally, Xiao Shizi had to "hide and seek" with the adults for a while, but when Xu Ye came back, he couldn't see his wife suffering in prison, so he reached a consensus with Cheng Han.Cheng Han sent the child back to Zhang's family, and he asked Huangchengwei to "discover".

... Yun Jue did a good job in this matter, after all, raising a child is not an easy job.

"The slave wants to follow Mr.

Cheng Han looked at her, "Zhang Wanqing is down, how about I help you sit in the side concubine position?" She has no family background, the position of the main concubine is a life-threatening talisman, and she won't live long if she sits on it, while the side concubine is much safer.

Thinking that Zhao Yanran might not live long, he changed his words: "Other families can do it too."

In the past, Yun Jue would definitely not be polite to him. She believed that he could do it, and also believed that he was really for her good.But it's different now, "The servant only wants to follow the master."

Cheng Han frowned, feeling a little clear in his heart, "Do you like me?"

Yun Jue lowered her head, her voice was a little trembling, "Yes, this slave girl loves Mr. Mu."

"It's difficult. I'm just a jerk, and maybe I'll be like this for the rest of my life. What's the good of you following me?" He wasn't rejecting her, but telling the truth.In the situation of their brothers and sisters, who knows when they will be guillotined.

"My maidservant trusts sir." Yun Jue was firm.

People like Cheng Han are paranoid and indifferent, so they can't quite understand how the other party's true love grows out of ambition, "If you have the ability to come out of Prince Rui's residence dignifiedly, I will consider it."
