Chapter 337: A High Sense of Worthy
As for Li Zong, the third prince was reprimanded by the emperor because of him, and the Zhang family will not let him go.
After Li Zong established contact with the Zhang family, he was afraid that the prince would steal his credit, so he offered his precious strategy to the prince.
The Zhang family and Bei Jingchu are not at the same level in terms of sensitivity to national policy.
One is a relative who was remembered by the emperor because of the third prince, and the other is the crown prince who has assisted in the administration for many years.
Bei Jingchu's flaws were easily spotted at a glance, but in the eyes of the Zhang family, they were just pinholes that outweighed the merits.
In addition, neither Defei nor Bei Jingyu were geniuses and had no experience.
This plan full of mistakes was sent to Concubine De like a treasure, and then passed on to Bei Jingyu.
But the Zhang family was obviously much more shameless. Li Zong hurried on, fearing that the prince would take the credit for him. However, after presenting the prince to the Zhang family, he finally died of anxiety.
At that time, Li Zong got connected to the Zhang family under Haoyue's secret arrangement. He was as arrogant as when he was in the Eastern Palace, and acted like a rare talent. He was invited into the Zhang Mansion with great fanfare.
As soon as I entered, I was greeted by Zhang's father himself.
Zhang's father personally welcomed him to his seat with a smile, and chatted with him cheerfully, with wrinkles at the corners of his eyes showing, without any airs at all.
Li Zongzhi was very proud. You see, he was a talented person, but the prince was ignorant.
Now that he has joined the Third Prince and has assisted him well, those who looked down on him will surely regret it.
Li Zong couldn't help laughing out loud because of the picture he imagined in his mind.
Father Zhang on the side frowned. This man looked really stupid. Could he really be used by the Third Prince?
Zhang's father began to doubt the accuracy of the information obtained by his subordinates.
After some negotiations, his attitude changed.
He is indeed a character.
Especially without any honors or family background.
Father Zhang narrowed his eyes, which meant that it was easy to control.
He praised Li Zong: "Your Excellency is truly a young talent. It is such a pity that you were buried like a pearl in the dust before."
"Please lend us a helping hand. If you are willing to stay in Zhang's house permanently, I will certainly welcome you."
"I will give you a generous reward, and you will be made a marquis and a prime minister in the future."
Zhang's father counted a number.
Even compared with the salaries of officials, it is a sky-high price.
Although he had no intention of giving it, he was waiting for Li Zong's reaction.
It’s best to be ecstatic so that you can move on to the next plan.
In the end, Li Zong responded indifferently, saying, "Your sincerity is still a little lacking."
He put his hands behind his back and sighed mysteriously.
"Forget it. I will be kind and help you this time."
Zhang’s father: ...What a high sense of deservingness.
Why does he really think he is worth this price?
Where does this inexplicable confidence come from?
Zhang's father resisted the urge to vomit and took Li Zong to a luxurious and exquisite chamber. He said to him, "This is what I specially prepared for you. This is where you will live from now on."
"Please go back and say goodbye to your family first, and bring your luggage to my humble abode."
"After all, it will be inconvenient to be too far apart for business purposes in the future."
Li Zong still did not react much when faced with the elegantly decorated room, and his expression clearly stated: This is what I deserve.
Zhang's father: ...How come this trick that has always worked suddenly becomes ineffective?
He quickly asked someone to ask this overconfident man to leave to avoid him being angry to death.
Li Zong returned home satisfied and told his parents everything about the Zhang Mansion.
Li Shanglian and his wife burst into tears, stood on tiptoe, and patted his shoulders vigorously.
Sigh: "Good, good, good boy."
"Our family has finally come to a happy ending after all the hardships we have gone through. Let's see if your eldest aunt and Zhou Huanjiu will still look down on us in the future."
"This time, even if they want to get close to you, we have to give them some advice before we can forgive them."
Li Zong solemnly told his parents: "After all, cousin Zhou Huanjiu is the prince's man. Now that I support the third prince, if I associate with them, it may be suspected of betrayal."
"For the sake of the child's future, Aye should cut off all ties with them. After all, they are of no use to us now."
Li Shanglian quickly responded, "Okay, okay, my father and mother will listen to you. We will no longer have this relative."
Li Zong packed his things and got into the carriage from the Zhang family with great interest.
As soon as I got in the car, a strong and strange aroma hit me.
Li Zong's eyes went dark and he passed out.
Although there is only one update (I feel guilty and my eyes are distracted), happy Children's Day to all the babies~
