Chapter 1547 Just Relatives

Zhang Gaoyi's face was expressionless as he spoke calmly, "Why didn't you have the courage to say these words when the eunuch was here just now? I'm afraid you would be convicted of the crime of disobeying the emperor's order and your whole family would be sent to hell! What's the point of shouting here now?"

Zhang Wangshi felt extremely unhappy when she thought about Ye Zifen becoming the mistress of the General's Mansion in the future.

However, the reality was before her and she had no way to change anything. Apart from complaining, she was powerless.

However, Zhang Gaoyi didn't want to tolerate her bad temper any longer at this time.

Faced with someone who didn't care about her at all, Zhang Wangshi suddenly lost her momentum.

She is a person who bullies the weak and fears the strong.

Then, she saw Bai Xiangyang again. She was afraid that something might happen to him entering the General's Mansion, so she hurriedly said to the person in charge, "Hurry up and go to the inn to bring Xiangyang's wife and children to the General's Mansion. The last time Xiangyang came, our General's Mansion didn't even let him in. It was simply a bully who relied on his power and judged people by their appearance! Go quickly and bring them all back to me."

The manager still stood firmly in the same place, with no intention of moving, but his eyes were looking towards Zhang Gaoyi.

Zhang Gaoyi did not respond to him, but turned to look at Old Man Zhang, and said in a calm but cold tone: "When did the General's Mansion treat a person of another surname as one of their own?"

Old man Zhang had not originally intended to say anything extreme to Bai Xiangyang. After all, his eldest son had become a general and his second son also had a bright future.

Therefore, since both of his children are so outstanding, there is really no need for him to put on airs in front of Bai Xiangyang.

However, his son's words clearly showed his attitude, and he immediately said, "Of course not, all of this is earned by your own ability, so it's up to you to decide."

Zhang Wang was about to speak, but Old Man Zhang stopped her with a stern look and scolded her, "If you have any more objections, you don't have to be a member of the Zhang family anymore!"

When Zhang Wang heard this, she dared not say another word.

After a long while, he reluctantly said, "We can still be relatives, right? Do you think that even if you become a general, you won't recognize your relatives?"

Zhang Gaoyi sat in the first seat, looking at Bai Xiangyang and Zhang Wangshi with cold eyes, and slowly said: "Since you want to be relatives, you must have the awareness of being relatives, and don't think of yourself as the master here. Recognize your own identity."

After saying that, he turned to the housekeeper and ordered, "Send someone to the inn to invite the guest back to the General's Mansion. Be nicer and settle the inn's bills. Don't lose face for the General's Mansion."

Hearing this, Zhang Wang finally showed a smile on her face, but she was still a little worried, and hurriedly asked: "You must be polite, don't scare the child!"

The butler nodded to show that he understood.

At this time, Bai Xiangyang remained silent, hiding behind Zhang Wangshi with a wandering look in his eyes.

Zhang Gaoyi sighed inwardly. He had always looked down on Bai Xiangyang, but when he thought of his plan, he decided to be patient for the time being and continue dealing with them.

When Zhang Gaoyi agreed, Zhang Wangshi quickly pulled Bai Xiangyang, who was hiding behind her, to the front and said in a brisk tone, "Go with the housekeeper and bring your wife and children back. I'll be waiting for you at home and ask the kitchen to prepare some delicious dishes to welcome you."

Bai Xiangyang nodded repeatedly, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly followed the butler out.

Zhang Gaoyi watched the scene in front of him silently and sneered in his heart.

He was extremely disgusted by Bai Xiangyang's flattery and Zhang Wangshi's different treatment of him, but he knew very well that this was not the time to turn against him.

He could only endure silently and wait for the opportunity to come.

After Bai Xiangyang and others left, Zhang Gaoyi sat on a chair in the main hall, quietly waiting for what was about to happen.

Old man Zhang stood quietly, following the figures that were moving away until they disappeared from his sight.

There was an indescribable complex expression on his face, and he seemed to have countless words in his heart that he wanted to say to his son.

However, he finally held back and waited silently until everyone else had gone far away before he slowly asked, "Child, your marriage with Princess Fuxia has been decided, but I heard that everyone in the Ye family has left. What's going on? You and the girl from the Ye family are not young anymore, shouldn't you get married as soon as possible? This matter can't be delayed any longer."

Zhang Gaoyuan watched Zhang Gaoyi get married and continue the Zhang family's bloodline. This was his top priority in the capital.

However, seeing that Zhang Gaoyi was so busy all day that he didn't even have time to go home, old man Zhang could only worry.

Originally he wanted to count on Zhang Gaowu, but Zhang Gaowu never returned home since he came back once when they first came to the capital. It was not until they left the capital that Zhang Gaowu went home and said hello.

If not for this, Old Man Zhang would have no idea that the Ye family and the caravan had left.

At that time, Zhang Gaowu directly expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhang Wang's behavior.

Now the two children in the family are becoming more and more dissatisfied with them.

If only one son was dissatisfied with them, they could still say that this son was a good-for-nothing, but since both children were like this and one of them was raised by him with pampering, they had nothing to say.

Now that the imperial decree granting the marriage has been issued, Old Man Zhang is eager to hold the wedding as soon as possible.

After all, the other party was a princess, and he understood that his family was indeed marrying up.

From the beginning till now, their Zhang family has never been as noble as the Ye family.

But he doesn't care about these. As long as his son can live a good life in the future, he will be satisfied.

But he really couldn't understand why the Ye family and the caravan left in such a hurry.

Not only that, even the newly married second daughter of the Ye family and her son-in-law left together.

All this made him very confused and he felt that something was not right.

Zhang Gaoyi frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

He was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Dad, regarding my marriage with Zifen, everything needs to be arranged by the royal family. This is not something we can decide on our own. As for the people of the Ye family and the caravan, it was Zifen who arranged for them to leave. After all, staying in the capital may not necessarily be safe. At present, we do not have enough strength to protect everyone, including you and mother. Mother is still in the temple, so I did not mention this to you before. Originally, I planned to wait until mother came back, and then properly arrange for you to leave here, but judging from mother's current condition, she is definitely unwilling to leave."
