The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 317 Persuasion
In the hot spring villa, inside the house where Mrs. Wang is staying as a guest.

Zhang Yunyi held down Mrs. Wang's messy bun with one hand and rhythmically patted her perky hair with the other.

Leaning against the bed, he said thoughtfully, "It's not that I don't want to help, it's just..."

Having said this, he felt that Madam Wang, who was crawling sideways, had stopped moving. He put more force on his hand and said with displeasure, "What's the matter? Madam Wang was yelling at him just now, but now she's turned her face against him and doesn't even want to listen to me finish my words?"

"Woo!~" Mrs. Wang shook her head slightly, muttered something, and then buried her head like a chick eating rice.

Only then did Zhang Yunyi raise the corner of his mouth in satisfaction.

Not to mention the Second Master's arrangement, I'm afraid he tried all the ones that Jia Zheng had never set up before.

Perhaps in order to find an excuse for her affair, after Wang Fu-ren recovered, she told Jia Zheng everything about how she was forced into adultery.

Upon hearing that this trip was Jia Zheng's idea, Zhang Yun逸 was shocked and acted even more recklessly.

However, things did not go as he predicted, which made his original argument useless.

He had to change his strategy and put the blame on others, saying, "The Second Madam may not know yet. The marriage has changed because the Second Master has offended Prince Ning..."

"Pa!" Zhang Yunyi clapped his hands heavily. "Your stopping now distracts me. If you continue to spoil my fun, I will go back!"

It’s not that Mrs. Wang is so weak that she allows him to control her.

However, while he was trying to exonerate himself, he undoubtedly also revealed his true identity.

Since the price is clearly marked and I am being used as a bargaining chip, it would be a bad idea to show my dissatisfaction.

In addition, she had been in seclusion for a long time, so after this incident, she had become very submissive and even felt that she had lived in vain all these years.

Anyway, Jia Zheng was determined to be a coward, so she couldn't help but miss the chance to visit him often, and she didn't want to break up with Zhang Yun逸.

After being punished twice in a row, she dared not slack off again. She worked hard with her head huffed and puffed, while listening attentively to the reasons behind the work.

After hearing that Prince Ning wanted to recruit Zhang Yunyi but was blocked by Jia Zheng, the marriage became unplanned.

While she was cursing Jia Zheng in her heart, she was twisting her hips and waist in a flattering manner.

When Zhang Yunyi groaned and loosened his hand that was pressing tightly on her head, she raised her head with tears in her eyes, swallowed and said, "Since Prince Ning wants to recruit Yunyi, please help to mediate for my sake."

"Then the lady must think it over carefully!"

Zhang Yunyi pinched Madam Wang's chin, saying playfully, "This matter has already come before the Emperor. Regardless of whether my words are of any use, since he has offended Prince Ning and even gone to the extent of breaking off the engagement, do you think it will be a good thing for the eldest daughter to marry into the palace?"

"This..." Mrs. Wang was stunned.

Without waiting for Madam Wang to continue, Zhang Yunyi asked, "Does Madam intend to push the eldest daughter into this place to save face for him, even though she knows it's a pit of fire?"

To be honest, marriages these days are blind marriages, and everyone has gone through this. Mrs. Wang has never thought about this.

But Zhang Yunyi added a sentence to save Jia Zheng's face, so she had to think about it carefully.

Things have come to this point, and she was half-hearted in admitting it. She couldn't resist Zhang Yunyi's coercion and got on the pirate ship. How could she bear to lose face?

But if she admitted to using herself as a bargaining chip to get Zhang Yunyi to help her, what was the difference between that and a prostitute with a clear price tag? How could she save face?

Not to mention that she had no intention of gaining face for Jia Zheng. Now that she had tasted the sweetness of it, she was planning to visit him often. Once she accepted him, wouldn't it mean that she was in Cao's camp but her heart was with Han?

Not only would it cause trouble for Zhang Yun逸, and he might not be willing to help, but his plan of frequent visits would probably fail.

"He and I have been separated for a long time, but..." As she spoke, she sat down on Zhang Yunyi's legs and rubbed them back and forth, "but, the girl is my flesh and blood after all..." Zhang Yunyi was too busy ruining this marriage, so how could he help to bring them together?
He originally thought that once Mrs. Wang accepted it, he would pretend to be indignant and leave in anger.

Unexpectedly, she actually said this.

However, although it was unexpected, he was still very satisfied with Mrs. Wang's attitude, and he couldn't help but think of a plan: "Since Madam said so, it will be easy. Although I can't help you, I can give you a suggestion!"

"What trick?" Mrs. Wang was cheered up and asked quickly.

"Although the marriage is over, the young lady cannot be left alone like this forever. Go back and tell him to ask the emperor for permission, saying that the young lady is old and begging the emperor to show mercy and release her so that she can get married."

"This..." Madam Wang was embarrassed, "The emperor has already issued an oral order. Asking for his permission now is... Besides, how can he agree to it?"

"Hey! Everything depends on human effort!" Zhang Yunyi wiped Madam Wang's lips, "You also said that the emperor has issued an oral order, and now he is in a difficult situation. As long as he is willing to ask for an imperial decree, the emperor will naturally go along with it."

At this point, he paused and said jokingly, "Didn't you say that he didn't care about the life or death of the eldest girl, but couldn't stand being ridiculed in the government office, so he sent you here because he was worried that people might see you in the mansion and cause trouble?
In this case, when he asks for an imperial decree, he can also ask for a post outside the capital. Once he leaves the capital, who outside will know about this mess? No one will laugh at him. If he is still worried, he can find a post far away. Then I can come to find you. Wouldn't it be more convenient?
Besides, the emperor had the intention to break off the engagement first, so he must have been in some fault. He could have just asked for a high price. I remember that he had been in the position of Yuanwailang for many years. Although the eldest girl's marriage was ruined, he was promoted and he also earned back some face."

It was not in his interest to keep Yuanchun's marriage hanging in the balance.

However, it was his idea to set up a separate courtyard for the bride, and he did have feelings for Yuanchun, but he couldn't be the first to take action.

Otherwise, if he took Yuanchun into his service in the future, the emperor would think he had some selfish motives.

Although, this is also true.

From Mrs. Wang's words, it was not difficult for him to see Jia Zheng's ostrich mentality. Thinking that in the original novel, he had been sent out as the provincial education commissioner, and he also found out the reason why he was targeted last time, he took the opportunity to instigate him to come forward and temporarily get him away.

Although Jia Zheng was a coward and took the initiative to send Lady Wang to his home, he had also made it clear in advance that he would not let Lady Wang take him back home.

It was like this before, but now that the matter has been exposed, I am afraid that I will feel even more like I am facing a formidable enemy. It will definitely add many constraints to his going to the Grand View Garden.

As Zhang Yunyi was talking, Mrs. Wang looked into his eyes and felt excited.

She didn't know yet that Zhang Yunyi was planning to capture both mother and daughter.

He thought to himself that although the marriage was ruined, once the emperor released Yuanchun, it would naturally not affect another marriage. It was better than leaving the matter in suspense, so it could be considered a compromise.

Now that the matter has been exposed, she still doesn't know how to face Jia Zheng. If he asks for permission to be sent away, they can live apart in the future, which would avoid the embarrassment of seeing each other every day.

Coupled with Zhang Yunyi's words that it would be more convenient to find her in the future, she was even more excited and could hardly control herself.

Mrs. Wang knew Jia Zheng very well and could not help but admire him, "You are the one who has a solution! He seems to be indifferent to fame and gain, but he cares about this the most. Now he is desperate. If he can take this opportunity to get promoted, he will definitely not object!"

The most important task was completed, and she had an explanation when she returned. Mrs. Wang began to worry that Yuchuan would leak the news. She made up her mind and said sternly: "Why not take advantage of this opportunity to take Yuchuan as your roommate, so that she won't gossip when she returns."

This was just what Zhang Yunyi had expected.

However, as Jinchuan's younger sister, Yuchuan doesn't need to act too hastily, lest she become resentful and have the opposite effect.

"Hey! There's no rush for this matter. Jin Chuan will take care of it. Besides, she is Madam's maid, so you just need to comfort her."

While Zhang Yun逸 was patiently persuading him, he also kept fiddling with the computer with his hands.

When Mrs. Wang's breathing became heavier, she smiled wickedly and said, "It will take some time for Jia Zheng to ask for permission to leave the capital. Madam, I'm afraid you won't be able to see me for a while after I go back. I have to make sure you have enough to eat and drink tonight."
