Concubine to conquer the world

Chapter 440
"Why hasn't Daddy rested yet?"

Zhou Zishu walked in and saw Zhou Zhengtong rubbing his brows, she said softly.

Zhou Zhengtong, who was sitting behind the desk, was stunned when he saw Zhou Zishu coming in. He continued to rub his brows and opened his mouth.

"Daddy is still thinking about something, what are you doing here without taking a break? Is there something wrong?"

Zhou Zishu shook his head.

"It's okay, it's just that Zishu saw that his father was frowning and couldn't sleep. He saw that the light in his study room was still on, so he came in."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhengtong bowed his head and let out a deep sigh.

"One day if the assassin is not caught, the emperor will not give me a good face for one day, and all the ministers in the court are waiting to see my jokes."

"Daddy's official position is not easy to come by, and the Zhou family relies on Daddy's official position to make a fool of themselves"

"If you can't catch the assassin, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep Daddy's official position."

As he spoke, Zhou Zhengtong's expression became anxious.

Rubbing his index finger and thumb together, he seemed restless, shaking his head and sighing.

Zhou Zishu froze after hearing his words.

She was in no hurry.
Daddy's official position is as important as his life, without his official position, it is equivalent to killing his life
She squeezed the handkerchief tightly, bit her lip and tried to speak.

"Daddy, if the assassin is caught, how do you think the emperor will deal with it?"

Zhou Zhengtong stopped rubbing his eyebrows, and spoke without hesitation.

"How else can we deal with it? Assassinating the prince is a serious crime for the Jiuzu, so he will be punished! Once the assassin is caught, blood will flow like a river again on the nine-foot Xingtai."

As soon as the words fell, the handkerchief in Zhou Zishu's hand fell to the ground, and he looked very flustered.

Seeing such a big reaction from her, Zhou Zhengtong's eyes froze slightly.

"Zi Shu, why do you look so ugly?"

"It's getting late, go back and rest."

After the words fell, he sighed again heavily from the wings of his nostrils.

Zhou Zishu picked up the handkerchief on the ground, his shoulders trembling uncontrollably.

She timidly looked at the battered Zhou Zhengtong, not knowing what to say for a while.

If you can't catch the assassin, your father will lose his official position. How did your father get his official position? She remembers it vividly. He paid all his efforts to get the position of Minister of Dali Temple.
If the assassin is caught, she will be exposed and implicate the entire Zhou family.

There are a total of 380 six people in the Zhou family.

She can't bear the 380 six lives
Thinking of this, her legs suddenly softened, and she knelt in front of Zhou Zhengtong.

"Daddy."

Zhou Zhengtong was startled by Zhou Zishu's sudden move.

He parted his lips in surprise.

"What are you doing?"

Zhou Zishu's teary eyes were hazy.

"Daddy, Zishu is not filial. You love Zishu so much, but Zishu can't do anything for you except to trouble you. Zishu"

Before Zhou Zishu finished speaking, Zhou Zhengtong came out from behind the desk and reached out to support her.

"Daddy knows that you feel guilty because you didn't marry the prince as you wished, but this is not something you can decide."

"Besides, your marriage with the prince is only temporarily put on hold, not cancelled, but just waiting for a few more days."

"Right now, King Mu is recovering. The emperor mentioned your marriage to the crown prince while he was happy in the Jinluan Palace today, and said to choose an auspicious day for you to get married."

"As long as you marry the prince with peace of mind and become his side concubine, daddy will try every means to help you sit in the position of concubine. In that case, our Zhou family will really honor our ancestors."
