Chapter 812 The Lobbyist
Duan Yu was happy, and looked at Mr. Zhuang with a funny look.

Mr. Zhuang was a little embarrassed, but he also became more determined to be the lobbyist.

"My lord, let me try."

Duan Yu laughed out loud, then tilted his head back, leaned on the back of the chair, smiled again, and then said.

"Sir, it's not that I'm pouring cold water on you. Zhang Xiaohua is different from other women. Really, it's not the same at all."

Mr. Zhuang nodded.

"I know, if it's the same, Shizi won't value her so much." I still can't forget her for so many years.

Duan Yu waved his hand.

"I regard her as a friend, and what I value is the friendship of a friend. Nothing else. Please don't get me wrong, sir."

"I understand, don't worry, my son, I know what to say."

Duan Yu shook his head, but seeing that he still insisted, he had no choice but to say.

"Then try it, but don't be disappointed in the result."

Mr. Zhuang saluted and went.

Duan Yu was a little curious about what Zhang Xiaohua would say, but unfortunately he couldn't eavesdrop.

Mr. Zhuang came to look for Zhang Xiaohua, and just said that he was Duan Yu's aide, Zhang Xiaohua guessed a little bit, and entertained him warmly.

"Mr. has worked hard all the way, please sit down quickly." He said and poured a cup of tea for him.

Thank you Mr. Zhuang.

"I've heard the prince talk about the girl a long time ago, and seeing her today really deserves her reputation."

Zhang Xiaohua looked at him with a smile, but didn't speak.

Mr. Zhuang said.

"Exquisite story paintings are popular in Kyoto nowadays. Both adults and children like them very much. Even I love to look through them. Although there are many famous painters, they are still not as good as girls, especially the stories. The stories of girls are novel and interesting. Just looking at it makes me want to stop.”

"Thank you sir for your compliment. In fact, I heard it all. I'm just a ghostwriter for everyone's wisdom."

"The girl is too modest, and I have heard a lot. I think everyone will hear such and such things, but only the girl draws it. This is the skill!"

Zhang Xiaohua smiled.

"Mr. Zhuang is really flattering, I don't even know what to say."

"I'm telling the truth." Mr. Zhuang sighed softly, "The girl is a person of great ability. You can see it if you look around the city. To tell you the truth, I came here ten years ago. At that time There was no war yet, and people were living in peace, but it was just stability. There were many people who had eaten their last meal and didn’t eat their next meal. Later, when the Song Kingdom fought, people here fled one after another, and it almost became a deserted city. Thinking, it won’t be able to recover in ten or twenty years. I didn’t expect the girl to come here. After a few years of hard work, not only has the place been restored, but it has also developed to such an extent. I think everyone who comes here will feel that this place is One of the most affluent cities in the Great Zhou, even more prosperous than Kyoto."

"Sir, this is too serious. Kyoto is at the foot of the emperor. How can it be compared here. Sir, I admit that this place is rich and prosperous, but this is not the result of me alone. It is the joint efforts of everyone here, as well as the support of the court, and all adults. Thanks to her love and care, today’s results are achieved, and I, in fact, am a witness.”

Mr. Zhuang was surprised, Zhang Xiaohua is very good at talking!

He has heard a lot about Zhang Xiaohua, who was born in a farming family, and by chance, met Duan Yu, and their relationship is very unusual.

He had also seen the Zhuangzi and the school run by Zhang Xiaohua, but Zhang Xiaohua was no longer there at that time, and Duan Yu took over, and he also regarded it as Duan Yu's achievements.

The only thing that shocked him was those picture books. The stories were very attractive, but Zhang Xiaohua wrote them for entertainment, and he only used them for entertainment. What shocked him was Zhang Xiaohua's painting skills. He never thought , I have always been able to draw a person with a charcoal pencil, let alone a drop of water, which made him astonished!
As for the bicycles, biogas, etc., and sewing machines that Zhang Xiaohua made, he felt that Zhang Xiaohua was clever and a smart woman, and he understood why Duan Yu liked it.

Others, from Gao Qing and Duan Yu, he heard Zhang Xiaohua's unique insights, and the cooperation with the Wangfu in the past few years, he saw the possibility of Zhang Xiaohua assisting Duan Li, and he thought it would be better to marry such a woman into the family .

Today is the first time talking to Zhang Xiaohua. Before, he always thought that Zhang Xiaohua was rebellious, aloof and difficult to get along with. After all, some capable people are like this, especially women. He really didn't expect Zhang Xiaohua to be so tactful.

He thought about it.

"Miss is too modest. Without you, no matter how hard you work, and no matter how much support you have from the adults in Kyoto, there would be no City of Notre Dame today."

Zhang Xiaohua was not modest this time, but just smiled.

Mr. Zhuang continued.

"The prince told me that all these years, without the girl's support, he would not have gone so smoothly."

Zhang Xiaohua smiled.

"But as far as I know, he's not doing well."

Mr. Zhuang sighed.

"There's nothing you can do about it." Then he changed the subject, "I heard from General Gao that you saved the son, are you the son's benefactor?"

"It can be regarded as mutual support, not a benefactor."

"That's also fate, and it's hard to get it just because of that. In fact, I think that the girl and the prince are a perfect match. You have a relationship since childhood, and you also have the experience of supporting each other. It's a pity not to be together."

Finally got to the point?

Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile.

"Sir, if you say this, where will the future concubine be?"

Mr. Zhuang is very generous and authentic.

"This has nothing to do with the future imperial concubine."

"Why is it irrelevant? I am a good match with the son, so the future concubine and the son are not suitable?"

"No, it's a good match."

Zhang Xiaohua was startled, then laughed dumbfounded, what's wrong with her, discussing one-on-one with a man in the world of three wives and four concubines?

"What do you want to say, sir?"

Mr. Zhuang said.

"Girl, the prince needs you, and the palace also needs you. If you follow the prince, you will not only fulfill the prince, but also yourself. After all, as a woman, you must have a home."

Zhang Xiaohua lowered her eyes and smiled.

"Is the destination to be married?"

"I know that girls are arrogant, unlike ordinary girls who are content with their husbands and children at home, but because of this, if a girl wants to realize her inner ambitions, marrying a prince is the best choice."

"I don't even know that I still have ambitions. How does sir know? In other words, what is my ambition?"

"Isn't what the girl is doing now the answer?"

"But didn't I do it without marrying the prince?" Zhang Xiaohua asked with a smile.

Mr. Zhuang said calmly.

"This is only for the time being. Once the son gets married, it will be inconvenient to help the girl."

"I don't think so. The convenience he gives me is the convenience for himself. As long as the future concubine is not stupid, she should understand this truth."
