Chapter 1224 Solve the Zhao Family's Issues as Soon as Possible
When Shao Yunduan came back, it was indeed late at night. He seemed to have drunk a lot, but he was not drunk. He still knew to call her "Wife!" with a smile, and even hugged and kissed her.
Qiao Xuan originally wanted to tell him about what happened to Zhao Zhai today, but seeing this, she had to give up.
They asked the innkeeper to bring some hot water, and after a quick wash, they went to bed.
The next day, when she opened her eyes, she was a little surprised to see Shao Yunduan still beside her. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "I thought you had gone out to do something long ago!"
Shao Yunduan smiled and held her in his arms, "This mission is not that urgent, just pass it on. Besides, you just arrived, so naturally you should rest for a few days first."
Anyway, the Yangzhou prefect will send someone to help with the process, which is very convenient.
Besides, the prince knew very well that his mission this time was not to collect books, so he didn't have to worry about it.
Qiao Xuan thought so when she heard it. The emperor is far away and there is no need to rush to finish the work in the next two days!
I felt relieved immediately. So, I should solve the Zhao family’s problem as soon as possible!
Qiao Xuan immediately told him about her chance encounter with Zhao Zhai yesterday. Shao Yunduan smiled and said, "My wife is lucky. I think our trip will be smooth! Parents like that can't raise a good son. Once Zhao Shu, the thorn in their eyes, leaves, it's almost certain that the two brothers will not get along!"
Qiao Xuan smiled: "This is a good thing for us!"
At noon, Sun Bai and Sun Qian came back, and Uncle Qing came with them.
Uncle Qing knew that they were in Yangzhou, so he came all the way from Hangzhou to pay his respects and ask if they needed any help.
Uncle Qing knows the Zhao family better than any of them, and he is also familiar with Yangzhou, so he has his own ways and connections.
Qiao Xuan asked about Hangzhou and learned that everything was going well, so she happily kept Uncle Qing.
According to the specific information Sun Qian had obtained, Zhao Mu's business had been as prosperous as ever in recent years. He had made countless silver coins and remained firmly in the position of the richest man in Yangzhou.
Zhao Shu had left Yangzhou for many years, and most of the old servants of the Zhao family had been replaced by Qin, who was now in charge. Qin had already secretly ordered that no one in the mansion was allowed to talk about the third young master, and that he would be sold immediately if anyone was found talking about him.
Therefore, many people in the Zhao Mansion did not even know that they had a third son.
Even if they knew, they only knew that the Third Young Master had a weird temper, was uneducated, ugly, and in poor health. He had been away from home doing nothing for all these years, and no one knew when he would come back, or maybe he had met with an accident and could not come back.
It is hard to say whether Zhao Mu knew about these things, but he never showed any concern for Zhao Shu.
The brothers Zhao Zhai and Zhao Ye naturally wanted to take a bigger share of this huge family business.
Zhao Zhai was unlucky. She had never been able to give birth to a legitimate son. Although she now had a son and a daughter, they were both born out of wedlock and were not in good health. The son was born with a disability and had uneven feet. The daughter seemed a little slow and was slow in everything she did.
In short, he is not likable at all, and most importantly, he is not liked by Qin at all!
Zhao Ye got married two years ago and married Zhou. In the middle of last year, Zhou gave birth to a big fat son. He was white, plump and adorable. Qin and Zhao Mu both loved him very much.
Especially Qin, who treated this precious grandson as the apple of her eye and doted on him immensely.
As a result, she liked Zhao Ye even more.
In addition, Zhao Ye was smarter and more capable than Zhao Zhai, and Zhao Zhai was badly suppressed by his brother, especially in the past two years.
