He subconsciously explained it clearly, not wanting the princess to misunderstand.
The eldest princess said, "So it's my sister-in-law. Since you're engaged to her, you should abide by the rules of being a wife. What would your husband think of you flirting with your brother-in-law in the street?"
You are not a child, you should know the principle of avoiding suspicion, right?
The relationship between a brother-in-law and a sister-in-law is prone to misunderstanding. It doesn't matter if you don't respect yourself, but it's your fault for tarnishing General Zhao's reputation."
Zou Jinglan knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe. How could Zhao Biao be involved with the eldest princess?
"Look up."
Zou Jinglan subconsciously looked up and met the eldest princess's critical gaze. She was a little disappointed: "How old are you? Why haven't you married yet?"
Zhao Biao said: "This is her second marriage. Her previous husband is dead."
"Second marriage? That's fine too. I don't object to second marriages, but I just want you to stick to your duties. General Zhao is an important official of the court. His reputation has been ruined by a second marriage like you. I will be the first one to not forgive you!"
Zou Jinglan could only beg for mercy: "I dare not."
"Don't even think about it. Don't let me see you again. General Zhao is kind-hearted and remembers our old friendship. I will uphold justice."
"yes."
The eldest princess scolded her and winked at Zhao Biao. She was helping him on purpose.
Men are always at a loss when dealing with these persistent stalkers, but she is not afraid. "Go away. If you delay my time, today will not be my day to ride. Otherwise, I will beat you to death."
Madam Kong said, "It was my negligence. Please forgive me, Princess."
"Well, remember to bring more people next time. No one dares to stop the car."
Nanny Kong helped her into the carriage. Zhao Biao was still savoring the eldest princess's playful smile and was a little dazed.
The carriage started and he hurriedly rode his horse to continue sending it off. His old face was flushed, but fortunately he had a thick beard so no one could see it.
Zou Jinglan was helped up by her daughter. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She felt even more resentful. "Zhao Biao actually hooked up with the eldest princess. He's really lucky."
Tao Yu advised, "Mother, forget it. You're going to marry General Zhang, so why are you still thinking about your uncle?"
"What do you know?"
Zou Jinglan slapped her casually, without thinking about how embarrassing it would be for her daughter to be beaten in the street. She was used to beating and scolding her on a daily basis.
"If I lived better than him, I wouldn't mind and would even show him some kindness, but why should he live better than me?
I will never let the man who once looked down on me step on me."
Tao Yu didn't say anything. If he spoke too much, it would only bring him trouble.
"What are you doing?"
Zhang Zhao was on his way home from work when he met them. He didn't expect Zou Jinglan to hit someone, so he immediately came over to question her.
When Zou Jinglan saw that it was him, she smiled lovingly: "I didn't do anything. There was a mosquito and I was swatting it for the child.
"Master, are you coming home from your mission? I've been waiting for you, Master. Would you mind having a simple meal with me?"
"Is that so? Xiaoyu, is your face okay? Lift your head so I can see."
Tao Yu shrank back and hid subconsciously. Zou Jinglan looked down on her even more. "My daughter is not presentable and petty. Master, please don't blame me. Let's go eat together."
"Okay, let's go together."
Zhang Zhao looked at his stepdaughter's figure. Being young is good. She is really good.
…
Zhao Letong didn't know about these things. His father and the eldest princess had a good relationship, and Zou Jinglan actually became a great assist.
It was already evening when she woke up. Feicui brought her ginseng chicken soup. She ate the whole chicken and the ginseng without wasting it. She came back to life.
"Where's my dad?"
"I've sent the princess back home. The eldest young master is back and is talking to Miss Chen. I'll ask you to go find him when you wake up."
"My eldest nephew is back, something must be wrong."
Zhao Youping is so busy, he won’t come back unless there is progress.
After Zhao Letong finished washing up, she ran to the living room. Zhao Youping was chatting with Chen Xinyue, and both of them had mixed expressions.
"Nephew, you better hurry up! The Chen family has come to our house to ask for someone. If Sister Chen goes back, you won't be able to see her anymore."
"Why not marry her sooner rather than later and let Sister Chen be my nephew's wife? You can't call me sister anymore. I have another younger generation and I need to prepare a gift for them."
Zhao Youping blushed, stood up and said, "My aunt is awake."
Zhao Letong walked out with his hands behind his back, acting like a little adult. "What are you guys talking about?"
She wanted to act like an elder, but unfortunately she was too small to fit on the chair, so Zhao Youping had to carry her up, and her aura was instantly gone.
Chen Xinyue said, "Mr. Zhao has discovered that there are still people alive in the Fang family."
"Isn't that great?"
Zhao Letong really didn't expect that after so many years, he could still find someone from the Fang family. It seemed that the Fang family didn't dare to show up for fear of revenge from Chen Boyang.
Zhao Youping sighed and said, "We did find the person, but he entered the palace and is now a eunuch."
"Eunuch, that's such a pity. Wouldn't that mean the Fang family's lineage will be cut off?"
In addition to those who volunteered to become eunuchs, there were also prisoners who were castrated and entered the palace to do the lowest, dirty and tiring work, but their sins would be forgiven.
This kind of person is not qualified to serve a noble person. Who knows if he may have evil intentions?
Zhao Youping said, "Although he's been a eunuch, Deputy Supervisor Fang has been clever and literate since he was young. He's also diligent in the palace and has good luck. Now he's the eunuch who writes for the Emperor and also serves as the second-in-command of the East Factory. While he holds a high position and great power, he's also one of the most powerful eunuchs."
Zhao Letong didn't understand much about the internal affairs of the palace and was a little confused.
