Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 813 Cheng Shaoshang: So getting married to you is all a matter of expediency. Don’t be wishful thinking.

With Zhu Zhanji's support, Zhu Gaochi stood up and said seriously:

"After I fully understood what my father just said, I realized what a genius Zhan He is. Therefore, whether it's public or private, I don't want any harm to Zhan He."

"If he were here, not only would the Ming Dynasty be able to shine for eternity, but at least it would prevent our Ming Dynasty from suffering a fate of only two or three hundred years like the previous dynasties."

Zhu Gaoxu sneered:

"Boss, do you know what is the biggest thing I have learned from my father these years?"

He said word by word:

"That means knowing people but not knowing their hearts. Also, let me remind you, if anything happens to Zhanhe in the future, I can really do anything."

After that, he also walked out of the courtyard.

Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Gaochi walked out of Jiming Temple and asked in a low voice:

"Dad, what do you mean by grandpa?"

"Now you know you're afraid. Before, you dared to risk your life on Jianwen. Why do you think your grandpa doesn't dare to kill you?"

"For your grandfather, whether he is afraid of meeting Taizu Emperor Gao underground or feeling guilty when he thinks about it, it doesn't scare him. He is afraid that one day impermanence will come, and he won't be able to let go even if he doesn't want to."

"Jianwen is younger than him. Nowadays, there are many veterans who have worked with Jianwen. They are afraid that if Jianwen shouts out, if the world changes and civil strife breaks out again, winning will consume energy, and losing will dig graves and break bones. Sweeping ashes.”

"Do you think your grandpa cares about these things, or does he care about your little head?"

Zhu Gaochi paused and sighed softly:

"What's more, now I have discovered the deeply hidden Zhan He. From the time your second uncle mentioned his political opinions on how to share the income of the tenants with the peasants, and the officials and gentry to pay the grain together, I knew that there was probably an extra person beside him who was far more powerful than Jiming Temple. You are like an old monk, but you never would have thought that he is actually Zhan He, who is one year younger than you."

Zhu Zhanji was worried and said:

"Dad, what exactly did grandpa think?"

"What? Do you have a sense of crisis?" Zhu Gaochi said seriously:

"No matter what you think, it's not something you and I should know. You just need to understand that your grandfather never leaves room for others, and you have to fight for it yourself."

Three months later.

The palace of the King of Han was decorated with lights and decorations inside and outside. The Crown Prince of Han was getting married today and marrying the Crown Princess. However, it was an extremely lively wedding day, but the atmosphere in the palace seemed particularly cold.

Not only did Zhu Gaoxu and Wei's faces look heavy, but the officials in the palace were all indifferent, which immediately made not only the Cheng family at the wedding banquet feel uncomfortable, but also made Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaosui and others very uneasy. If it weren't for the stickers all over the palace. There was no ambush around, so I almost thought this was the prelude to a rebellion.

Zhu Gaochi was the first to speak to ease the atmosphere:

"Second brother, younger brothers and sisters, don't worry. Dad just wants to experience the situation, and doesn't really intend to punish him or leave him alone."

Zhu Gaosui followed:

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, the boss is right. Don't you know about dad's temper? He just wants to take advantage of us, so he goes to take control of Zhan He."

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly stood up and said loudly:

"Okay, everyone, please forgive me for the poor reception in the Han Palace. Now the newlyweds have been sent to the bridal chamber, and it's getting late. Everyone, please go back."

After saying this, he left the table with a cold face.

"Prince, Prince Zhao, you all know the prince's stubborn temper. Please forgive me."

"My brother and sister are being polite, but Zhan He has been wronged. He has obviously made great achievements, but now he is no different than being demoted to a common people. From now on, whenever I have the opportunity, I will definitely try my best to persuade my father."

"Second sister-in-law, don't worry, I won't just sit back and watch."

After the two of them finished speaking, they left. The Cheng family looked at each other, said something to Wei Shi, and then left the house with the other guests.

At the same time, Yang Jiao opened the door alone with some wine and food, walked into the room, and saw Cheng Shaoshang, who had taken off his phoenix crown and was lying lazily on the bed.

As soon as she heard the noise, she stood up quickly. Just as she was about to sit upright, she heard something that almost made her cry with joy.

"Stop pretending there, you're hungry, come here and have something to eat."

Cheng Shaoshang immediately stood up, trotted over, sat at the table, and ate happily.

"Slow down." Yang Jiao saw her gobbling up the food and immediately poured a glass of wine.

Cheng Shaoshang drank it all in one gulp and said:

"I just ate some snacks in the morning to fill my stomach. I'm almost starving to death. How can I slow down?"

Yang Jiao laughed and gave her another drink.

"You don't know. The expressions on my father's and my brothers' faces today are that they all feel that I have suffered a great sin for being involved in your marriage. The emperor also issued a special order that my family cannot even bring a dowry, let alone a wedding gift. What maid?"

"I'm not even allowed to take too much money, I'm only allowed to take away a small amount of silver."

When Yang Jiao heard this, he was a little suspicious:

"Why do I see that you are still a little happy?"

Cheng Shaoshang swallowed the meat in his mouth and said:

"You don't understand how miserable I have been under my mother's control. Being married now is a great blessing among misfortunes."

Yang Jiao raised his eyebrows slightly:

"Appreciate further details."

Cheng Shaoshang replied angrily:

"You really plan to let me say some unhappy things to make you happy."

Yang Jiao smiled:

"My mother told me a few days ago that the house the emperor prepared for us is an empty house with nothing in it. I guess we will leave the house tomorrow. Like you, I am afraid that I can only take a few things with me. Silver taels."

"Based on the current prices in Yingtian Mansion, even though there is still some money left after purchasing daily necessities, it is impossible to just sit back and do some business. Once this money is spent, there will really be very little left."

"So, shouldn't you say some unhappy things now to make me happy?"

Cheng Shaoshang smiled:

"Hey, it seems that the prince of Han Dynasty is not very good. In the end, he has to rely on me, a weak woman. Don't worry, I can brew wine. I can brew the strongest and purest wine in Yingtian Mansion. I can brew water. The waterwheel I built is more dexterous and simpler than ordinary waterwheels. I can build kilns and burn tiles. The tiles I burn are as strong and durable as the tiles in the palace, but I can save half of the manpower and material resources."

"So, don't worry about one day you starve to death on the streets and become a joke to Yingtian Mansion."

Yang Jiao was very interested and found that the girl in front of him was really different and her skills were really crooked. He couldn't help but said:

"It seems that I underestimated you. I never thought you were so versatile."

When Cheng Shaoshang heard this, he raised his head and said:

"Putting aside your family background, you are worthy of praise for your face. For other things, I don't think you are any better than me."

When Yang Jiao heard this, he didn't say anything. He stood up and walked to the bed, unbuttoning his outer robe.

Seeing this, Cheng Shaoshang hurriedly spoke:

"Although escaping my mother's control and flying high is the marriage I want, I, Cheng Shaoshang, yearn for freedom and do not want to be restrained. I only want to think about the vast world and fly as I please. Therefore, getting married to you is completely It’s a temporary solution, but don’t be wishful thinking.”

Yang Jiao said in a cheerful tone:

"Very good. I'm the same as you. Don't have any wrong thoughts."

After he finished speaking, he got on the bed wearing his underwear.

When Cheng Shaoshang heard this, he immediately replied:

"You have to rely on me to support you from now on, so don't have any evil thoughts."

She suddenly remembered something, immediately put down her chopsticks and walked over quickly:

"You sleep on the bed, so where should I sleep? You don't want me to sleep underground, right?"

Hearing this, Yang Jiao slept on the innermost side of the bed and said softly:

"We'll get over here tonight. We'll leave the house tomorrow and arrive at the new house. You can sleep wherever you want."
