Chapter 221 To Accept or Not to Accept?



Duke Li nodded, "Perhaps the two are not destined to be together."

"Is that so? I've heard that there are thousands of girls in Shengjing who admire Wenxiu. I imagine he'll be able to find a new wife soon."

Duke Li was secretly on guard. What did that mean?

Why would Xiao Zhixing pay attention to this matter? Is there some underlying reason?

Duke Li couldn't understand why Xiao Zhixing would be so bored as to pay attention to Li Jun's marriage.

Of course, he dared not think too much about the absurd idea that Xiao Zhixing might have taken a liking to his own son.

He felt that his son's marriage must have involved her somehow, which was why it was attracting attention.

Xiao Zhixing smiled and said no more.

This made Duke Li even more uneasy, and he thought that he would have to think about it carefully when he got back and quickly settle his son's marriage.

He no longer cares about social status when it comes to marriage; he only hopes his son can get married safely and quickly so he can put his mind at ease.

Xiao Zhixing then said to Zhang Shanhai, "I heard that Lord Jiang Bozhou is retiring due to a recurrence of his old injuries. There is no one else but General Zhang to fill the position of leader of the Imperial Guard. I congratulate General Zhang in advance."

Zhang Shanhai said, "Your Highness flatters me. There are countless people in the court who are more outstanding than me. I dare not make such a boastful statement."

Xiao Zhixing picked up his wine glass. "But does General Zhao Bupi also have that intention?"

Zhang Shanhai felt a chill; he hadn't expected that Xiao Zhixing, so far away in Beizhou, would even be paying attention to something like this.

Zhao Bupi was a nephew of a collateral branch of the Zhao family, making him a relative of the emperor.

He is currently the leader of the Imperial Guard in Shengjing, and he would be more than qualified to be the leader of the Imperial Guard.

Zhang Shanhai is actually Zhao Yunqi's adopted son, the kind of verbal adoption.

These two are evenly matched, with a 50/50 chance.

Xiao Zhixing didn't say anything more. With Duke Li here, she mentioned that if Zhang Shanhai was interested, he would naturally come to find her.

The three of them briefly agreed on the plan for disaster relief.

The next day, detailed arrangements were made, and Xiao Zhixing stayed in Heiwu County for another ten days.

On the ninth day, she saw the two off, and the night before, Zhang Shanhai secretly came to see her.
