Chapter 647: The old minister must make Xiao Gao admit his fault (third update)
Zhao Fujin looked at his father who had a serious expression in front of him with a confused look on his face, and grabbed the other man's hand with his backhand in fear.
"Dad, don't you want to recognize your daughter?"
I saw Zhao Ji, his biological father who claimed to be Mingjun in front of him, chuckled, showed an expression of calculation, and shook his fingers.
"Of course not, dad just thought of a man who would allow you to marry Xiao Gao while also preventing him from being criticized by the world's officials.
It will not interfere with his future prospects and prevent him from being able to gain a good position."
"But Fu Jin, don't forget that there is a daughter of the Fang family who is already engaged to Xiao Gao..."
Zhao Ji, an official, stroked his short beard and let out a long sigh before speaking.
"Although dad and Xiao Gao are masters and apprentices, they share the same love as father and son. The Fang girl is also a girl from a good family."
"In the past, Xiao Gao went south to the south of the Yangtze River and encountered the Zhu family's rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River. This girl's family did a lot to help Xiao Gao put down the Zhu family's rebellion."
After all, how could a serious Mingjun come up with such bizarre tricks to avoid this?
As he said this, Wu Zhizhong turned his head and looked at the official Zhao Ji who was smiling meaningfully.
"Hahaha, what Mr. Wu Aiqing said is in my heart. I also feel that among all my children, Maode understands my thoughts best..."
However, as a precocious and well-informed emperor, Zhao Fujin also knew very well.
Looking at his father's meaningful expression, Zhao Fujin finally nodded firmly.
"At that time, the boy also said that if Wu Aiqing had a daughter, he would make her a good match and marry Qin and Jin."
"In the official family, Emperor Maode is gentle, witty, intelligent, and kind-hearted. She is really a model among women..."
"Old minister, see Your Majesty, see Your Majesty the Emperor..."
Just like there are so many concubines in your biological father's harem that you can't even recognize them all. It is said that your biological father has more concubines outside the palace, well...
But when I thought that I really had a chance to marry the man I loved, my heart was filled with sweetness again.
Looking at his father Zhao Ji with a face full of disbelief, he really felt that the evaluation of his father by the people of the Song Dynasty was not unreasonable.
Zhao Fujin, who had a well-behaved face and a heart full of joy, couldn't help but whispered worriedly.
Wu Zhizhong happily bowed to the father and daughter before standing still.
"Dad, my daughter heard that Wu Shangshu is an upright and loyal person who is not easy to deal with. Can he agree to such a thing?"
Then he heard the official Zhao Ji pointing at him with a smile, whispering a few words to the Maode Emperor, and then signaled his beloved daughter to leave.

His father's advice reminded Zhao Fujin of the first time he learned from his father that brother Xiao Gao had met a woman named Fang Baihua in the south of the Yangtze River.
"Wu Aiqing, do you still remember that before Xiao Gao left Beijing, I spoke to you and Xiao Gao here..."
But he never thought that his father would suddenly give him a new choice today.
"Therefore, it is not convenient for my father to stop Xiao Gao from marrying Fang's daughter. Therefore, if you are willing for the two daughters to live together as one husband, my father is willing to help you."
Instead, his beloved disciple became his beloved son-in-law, which seems to make people more happy.
Zhao Ji, an official, leaned into his daughter Zhao Fujin's ear and murmured, "It's not a big deal." Zhao Fujin's bright, watery eyes suddenly widened.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fujin heard a hearty smile from his own father.
But when I think about it, my biological father is willing to marry the one he likes just so that he can marry his beloved. This kind of behavior can indeed make the world speechless.
"Dad, my daughter has already made up her mind. If she cannot marry brother Xiao Gao, she would rather escape from the world of mortals."
After entering the Imperial Study Room, I saw the official smiling and talking quietly to his beloved daughter, Emperor Maode, Zhao Fujin.
This made Zhao Fujin blush with embarrassment and become irritated. After seeing Wu Zhizhong coming, Zhao Fujin quickly lowered his head to avoid being noticed by others.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Let dad take care of everything. In short, you will definitely marry Xiao Gao as you wish.
"In that case, daddy will help you to become a monk smoothly."
"Dad, what do you want to help your daughter?"
I'm a little confused as to what the officials meant by this.
However, whenever there was news about Brother Xiao Gao, she couldn't help but cheer for it, beaming, and feeling more and more that Brother Xiao Gao was her beloved.
He actually made an appointment with that woman after only a few meetings, but this made Zhao Fujin sad for a long time, and he was already disheartened.
#####
Wu Zhizhong walked quickly towards the imperial study. As soon as the court meeting was over, the officials came to look for him, saying they had important matters to discuss.
This really made Zhao Fujin overjoyed, but when he thought of the little sister Fang Baihua beside Brother Xiao Gao whom he only heard of by name but had never met, he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.
Zhao Fujin's whole body was numb. Is there something wrong with his ears or his father's thoughts have gone astray and helped him become a monk? What about my little brother Gao?
"Come on, come on, listen carefully to what daddy is telling you..."
"If you don't want to, then you'd better choose another good match."
"What's more, Xiao Gao wrote to inform me that he has made an agreement with Fang's daughter about Qin and Jin, and my father has agreed to it. How can he break his promise and get rich?"
As for the fact that there is no way to criticize my biological father on the surface, privately, I guess...
Naturally, Wu Zhizhong did not dare to neglect, and soon arrived at the imperial study room.
In this way, Xiao Gao and his father are not only masters and apprentices, but also son-in-law. They are a family. I think Xiao Gao will be very happy..."
"Old Wu, Ai Qing, how is this girl of mine?"
"At that time, I heard it with my own ears here. I didn't know that Wu Aiqing..."
For this reason, she even tried to ask her eldest brother to help her convey the news to her biological father, but was rejected by her biological father. This hit her again, and she even considered becoming a monk.
Zhao Ji, the official, met Wu Zhizhong's doubtful eyes and motioned for him to sit down first before speaking leisurely.
Looking at his biological father who was smiling with joy, Zhao Fujin felt for no reason that his biological father seemed to be happy not just because he was marrying the person he loved.
This made Zhao Fujin filled with joy, but he also felt that his father's laughter disturbed his mood.
"..." As soon as he said this, Wu Zhizhong, who was nearly eighty years old, turned slightly dark and subconsciously lowered his head slightly.
What do you mean, is this foolish king with a brilliant mind trying to force himself to take a concubine?
"In the official family, the old minister is so old that he really can't make such a joke. However, if the old minister gets a granddaughter, he must make Xiao Gao admit his fault."
"In that case, this matter can be done, hahaha..."
