The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 562 Take what you need
"It's not very interesting. Dare I ask Mr. Wang, do you know that your younger brother Wang Jingzhi has connections with the Zheng family and the Lu family? Do you know that among the officials who were beaten in the eastern suburbs of Chang'an City, there are some To your royal family?" Xuan Shijing asked with a half-smile.

Hearing this, Wang Chongji calmed down, looked at Xuan Shijing and said, "Is it related to Jingzhi?"

"Of course, Mr. Wang might as well sit down and talk." Xuan Shijing pointed to the seat where Wang Chongji sat before.

Wang Chongji pondered for a moment, then sat down opposite Xuan Shijing again.

"Perhaps Mr. Wang has been taking care of Mr. Wang Gui recently, and he doesn't know some things outside. Today, I will briefly talk to Mr. Wang."

"I would like to hear the details." Wang Chongji cupped his hands at Xuan Shijing.

"Some officials involved in the Eastern Suburb incident are attached to your Wang family. After the incident, those officials naturally went to your palace. It's just that Mr. Wang Gui was sick in bed at that time. Naturally, Wang Jingzhi was entertaining these people. In order to increase the bargaining chip against you in the future, Wang Jingzhi needs to win over these people. After all, these people unite in Changzhou, and they are also a big force. You can't even compare with Wang Jingzhi. If Lord Wang Gui really wants to choose an heir one day, although you are the eldest son, you have no other advantages other than your status. You might as well think about it, Lord Wang. What else can you get from the title that is hereditary to you."

Sitting opposite Xuan Shijing, Wang Chongji was silent. The situation Xuan Shijing said was true. If it really reached that point, he would not be able to get anything except the hereditary title, but It's just a title. The current Wang Jingzhi works in the East Palace and is close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He also took the Princess Nanping and made him a captain.

"Was Jingzhi involved in the case in the eastern suburbs?" Wang Chongji asked.

"For the case in the eastern suburbs, Wang Jingzhi was just trying to win over those officials and forcefully seek justice, but in the later incidents, his hands were indeed stretched a little longer." Xuan Shijing sneered: "Yesterday, the family members of my family returned to Chang'an. When he was in Chang'an, he was attacked by assassins outside the city of Chang'an, and after investigation by the Shenhou Mansion, it was inseparably related to Wang Jingzhi."

"What evidence does Xuanhou have?"

"Of course there will be evidence, but when someone presents the evidence, the Wang family will be wiped out. Does Mr. Wang still want someone to present evidence?" Xuan Shijing asked with a smile.

"Then what does Xuanhou want to do?" Wang Chongji asked.

"Wang Jingzhi's actions have touched the bottom line of the Marquis. The Marquis will not kill him, but he will not make it easier for him. Although you are Wang Jingzhi's elder brother, Mr. Wang, there is no need for the Marquis to say these things. How about avoiding you, Mr. Wang, what this Marquis wants is to help you win the Wang family's property from Wang Jingzhi's hands?" Having said this, Xuan Shijing looked directly at Wang Chongji.

"Oh? I'm afraid things are not so simple. If Xuanhou has anything else to say, you might as well tell someone directly." Wang Chongji and Xuan Shijing looked at each other without any evasion.

"Taiyuan Wang Family." Xuan Shijing half-closed his eyes: "This Marquis doesn't want to quarrel too much with the Taiyuan Wang Family. Many friends are better than many enemies. If Lord Wang can become the head of the Wang Family in the future, Then Dongshanhou's Mansion and Wang's Family can turn fighting into friendship, right? After all, no one wants to summon enemies for themselves, right? The Hou's Mansion is like this, and the Taiyuan Wang's Family is also like this, but now both sides are missing a step. Benhou thinks, It’s pretty good that Wang Jing straightened up this level.”

As for the brotherly friendship between Wang Chongji and Wang Jingzhi, hehe, if the friendship between the two is really stronger than gold, if the brothers are united, Xuan Shijing would not say that Wang Chongji invited him to this Xuanwu Building to discuss these things up.

"I see." Wang Chongji smiled: "I have to say, Xuanhou is really far-sighted."

Wang Chongji carefully considered Xuan Shijing's words. If Xuan Shijing was worried about the power of the Taiyuan Wang family, such a choice would be reasonable. Just because of this reason, Wang Chongji felt that Xuan Shijing's words were [-]% credible As for the others, being able to inherit the Wang family is a good thing for Wang Chongji, and now it seems that there is no harm in cooperating with Xuan Shijing, each takes what he needs.

"To survive in Chang'an, it's better to be smarter, what does Lord Wang think?" Xuan Shijing looked at Wang Chongji with a half-smile.

"Xuan Hou said it well."

Chang'an Zhao Mansion.

"Master, why don't you go to the Shenhou Mansion to ask? You are always in a hurry at home, and it's not a problem." The housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion watched Marshal Zhao walking back and forth in his yard, holding back Can't help but remind.

"I can't, that would make me seem immodest." Marshal Zhao stopped and leaned on his chin and said in thought.

The butler was speechless, still reserved, why didn't you see you being reserved when you wrote such a paper with the cheek to submit it to the Shenhou Mansion, but now, fortunately, you have taken the most important step, and you have started to be reserved again.

"Young master, think about it, Dongshan Hou is so busy every day, you may not be sure about your affairs, the Marquis has already forgotten, so this old servant thinks, you'd better go there yourself."

"That's right, but how did I hear that Marquis Xuan just came back from an outing in Zhuangzi in Dongshan County two days ago?"

Marshal Zhao looked at the butler, and the two of them just stared at each other.

"Then what do you want to do, young master?" The old housekeeper was helpless.

"I can't make up my mind, that's why I asked you to ask. My father is not in Chang'an now, and now I am by my side. You are the only one who can give me an idea."

"Young master, according to this old slave, you have to decide this matter yourself. Think about it, you have already voted for the Marquis of Dongshan, which means that when you go out in the future, you will no longer be just the young master of the Zhao family. It's simple, if you are still hesitant about such a small matter, even if Lord Hou takes a fancy to you, do you think you can make things happen?" The old housekeeper said to Marshal Zhao with earnestness.

In the whole generation of the Zhao family, Marshal Zhao was the only one. The whole Zhao family was very important to this young master. He wanted the stars but not the moon since he was a child. The old butler watched Marshal Zhao grow up. Marshal Zhao also loves him very much, so when Marshal Zhao was faced with a choice, the old housekeeper couldn't help but say something like this.

This is really for the good of Marshal Zhao.

Normally, there were few things that would make Marshal Zhao undecided, but at this time, Marshal Zhao's so-called reservedness really shocked the old housekeeper, so he couldn't help but speak more than words to provoke him.
