General, please be a loyal minister!

In early summer, the sun was scorching and the cicadas were singing continuously. Zhao Jilai was enjoying the coolness in Liu Xuan's waterside pavilion.

He half-lyed on the mat, gnawed on a juicy watermelon, and then spit out the seeds one by one, falling into the pond, causing ripples.

This move was really rude, but with his relationship with Liu Xuan, no one would care so much about it.

Beside, Liu Xuan said seemingly unintentionally while reading the document: "Have you heard? The Wang family girl is unwilling to marry Mr. Han, she insists on marrying a young general named Ji Zixu, and said that she has already had an affair with him. For life."

Zhao Ji had a nonchalant expression: "Twisted melons are not sweet, I wish Miss Wang and her sweetheart get married in the end."

Liu Xuan sneered: "What is the marriage, the Wang family sent someone to look for it, but there was no such person at all. Ji Zixu, there is no such thing as a falsehood, the girl of the Wang family was obviously deceived."

Zhao Ji gave a "tsk" sound: "Ah! That's really pitiful."

"Mr. Han found out about this and said he doesn't mind the loss of Miss Wang's reputation."

The relaxed expression on Zhao Ji's face disappeared, his eyes sank, and he looked at Liu Xuan in disbelief, with a very stern expression on his face.

Yes, this is the Zhao Ji that Liu Xuan knew.

Although he looks young and sunny on the outside, he is ruthless and unruly on the inside.

For the things that I really love, I have always vowed not to give up if I can't win them; for the things I care about, I will never allow others to get involved.

Hitting little Liu Xuan suffered a lot from him, and this was the premise that Zhao Ji regarded him as a brother.

If someone who had nothing to do with him moved his things, he would definitely see how unscrupulous Zhao Ji is.

Seeing Zhao Ji's expression, Liu Xuan's guess was affirmed, and he quietly said the second half of the sentence: "But because Miss Wang is looking for life and death, this marriage still fell through."

Zhao Ji gave Liu Xuan a dissatisfied look, and lay back down.

"It's you, Ji Zixu." Some time ago, Zhao Ji left halfway when he went to the military camp to take up his post. Liu Xuan concealed it for him. Now it is not difficult to guess what he did during this time before and after the reunion. .

Zhao Ji didn't deny it either, but said in a muffled voice, "Don't tell Master."

Although he acted lawlessly, he was still afraid that Han Zhao would know what he was doing.

He is clearly a little bastard, but he wants to pretend to be a good boy in front of the master.

Naturally, Liu Xuan would not be an informer and ruin their brotherly relationship, but there are some things he has to say:

"What you did was absurd. As a disciple, you interfered with the master's lifelong affairs? To seduce your future mistress? What do you think of yourself?"

Zhao Ji didn't think he had done anything wrong at all, and Liu Xuan's reprimanded tone made him feel annoyed, and it happened that he was also feeling uneasy all the time, so he simply asked:

"Why should that woman be my mistress? Don't you understand why Master married her?"

Zhao Ji's questioning tone made Liu Xuan understand what he meant: "Do you think I asked Mr. Han to marry her in order to consolidate my position?"

"Otherwise?" Zhao Ji looked at Liu Xuan angrily, even if Liu Xuan was not the mastermind, he must have something to do with him.

All those who want to get involved with Master are his enemies, and he didn't care about Liu Xuan before because this matter has been resolved, and he didn't want to destroy his relationship with Liu Xuan.

Liu Xuan took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then spoke in a calm tone:

"Zhao Ji, I won't lie to you. This matter has nothing to do with me. When I learned about it, Mr. Han had already discussed it with Prime Minister Zhou."

Zhao Ji was taken aback, Liu Xuan's heartfelt words made him regret the impulsive quarrel with Liu Xuan, but he still felt that there was something wrong with Liu Xuan's words: "It's not because of you, why did Master marry a woman he doesn't like?"

Liu Xuan smiled helplessly: "How could I have the charm to make Mr. Han do this? Zhao Ji, from childhood to adulthood, everything Mr. Han did was for you. Do you know that if Mr. Han didn't marry that woman? , it will be you marrying a royal daughter."

The final result of things is the one that people choose the most acceptable to themselves after repeated games and considerations.

Zhao Ji was very upset. He was angry with Liu Xuan, Han Zhao, and himself: "If I marry, I will marry. That's better than master."

Liu Xuan hesitated to speak, he looked at Zhao Ji for a while, and finally sighed: "Zhao Ji, Mr. Han is doing it for your own good."

Zhao Ji didn't understand why Liu Xuan repeated this sentence again. Of course he knew that Han Zhao was good to him, so he would not let others take Han Zhao away no matter what he said.

"The Wang family promised Mr. another daughter, so don't mess around this time."

Suddenly, Liu Xuan threw out such a sentence, Zhao Ji was startled, and looked at Liu Xuan in disbelief: "What did you say?"

"Zhao Ji, this is a marriage caused by politics. The link between them is interest. As long as the interest is still there, both parties will maintain this relationship. You have been with me for so long, don't you even understand this?"

Liu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, he looked at Zhao Ji calmly, reflecting that he still had a childish look.

Zhao Ji realized that he was ridiculous. It was not a certain girl who wanted to rob his master, but the power behind her.

Zhao Ji looked at Liu Xuan helplessly, and Liu Xuan shook his head, expressing that he had no choice.

Zhao Ji was so well protected by Han Zhao, and everything went too according to his wishes, so he never suffered pain, sadness, hesitation, and helplessness in the true sense.

It's time for him to grow up, and this is just the beginning.

Confirming that he could not get any help from Liu Xuan, Zhao Ji returned home like a bereaved dog.

As soon as he saw Han Zhao, he stuck up to him, stopped Han Zhao's waist, and buried his head into his neck: "Master, don't you want to marry a woman from the Wang family?"

Zhao Ji had no way to change the current situation, he could only try to change Han Zhao's mind.

Before Zhao Ji kept silent, Han Zhao guessed if he was holding back some bad ideas, but now seeing him acting like a baby in front of him, he knew that he had no choice.

He pushed Zhao Ji away, as if he didn't hear Cai's words, he looked at the small courtyard and said: "I plan to change the courtyard, this place is too narrow."

Is it for the consideration of the bride who wants to pass the door?

Hearing Han Zhao's words, Zhao Ji felt a knife piercing his heart: "Master."

Han Zhao ignored him.

"Master."

"Master."

He called Han Zhao one after another, his voice changed from pitiful to sad and indignant to helpless, and finally, Han Zhao looked back.

"Zhao Ji, what do you want to do?" Han Zhao asked Zhao Ji like this.

Zhao Ji opened his mouth, unable to express his truest thoughts, he just mumbled, "I don't want that teacher's wife."

Han Zhao said in a deep voice, "I have already changed one."

"Not this one either! She doesn't deserve it!"

Han Zhao stared deeply at Zhao Ji for a while, then turned and entered the house, and Zhao Ji hurriedly followed.

Han Zhao stood still in front of the hall, and Zhao Ji stopped behind him.

"Zhao Ji, kneel down."

Hearing this, Zhao Ji knelt down without saying a word.

Han Zhao didn't reprimand Zhao Ji for anything, he just said "Think about where I'm wrong" and left.

From childhood to adulthood, Han Zhao only hit Zhao Ji once, and the number of times he was made to kneel in the ancestral hall can also be counted on one hand.

disappointment.

This is all Han Zhao's feelings now.

Han Zhao knew almost everything about Zhao Ji's actions. He always thought that although Zhao Ji was somewhat rebellious, he was absolutely clear about major issues.

But this time Zhao Ji's reaction disappointed him.

Disregarding the overall situation, they acted recklessly.

He originally considered the impact of his marriage on Zhao Ji's psychological state, so he suppressed his anger and didn't care about Zhao Ji, but Zhao Ji's ignorance made him unable to bear it.

In Han Zhao's view, marrying an unimportant woman is not a big deal, but Zhao Ji's fussy appearance is not worthy of the stage.

——When will Zhao Ji be able to put his brains to work?

Sitting in the study, Han Zhao closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying his best to calm down his anger.

Zhao Ji knelt in the main room from afternoon to night, when the cook came to deliver some food and left.

—— Wei Yao married Yu Wenxun two years ago and moved out of here.Since then, Han Zhao specially hired a cook to cook at home every day.

Zhao Ji didn't wrong himself, and ate the food honestly - he was no longer the idiot boy who would be angry with himself when he was a child.

Kneeling in the ancestral hall all afternoon made him understand that this matter is definitely not something that he can solve by acting like a baby.

In this matter, Han Zhao will no longer be his backing, nor will Liu Xuan, he must take more effective measures independently.

Zhao Ji couldn't help thinking that it would be great if there were no Zhou, Wang and Song families. He hadn't thought about it before, but this time his thoughts were stronger than ever.

After eating, Zhao Ji calmly cleaned up the dishes, and went to the kitchen to boil water for Han Zhao to send.

Han Zhao was not surprised to see Zhao Ji enter his room.

He didn't say anything because he felt that Zhao Ji knew the cause and effect of this matter, right and wrong, and could figure it out for himself, but if this kid really knelt all night, he would be even more angry.

"Have you figured it out?" Han Zhao took a cool look at Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji grinned: "I figured it out."

After speaking, he licked his face and stuck to Han Zhao: "Master, let me wash your feet."

Han Zhaobai glanced at Zhao Ji: "Happy smiling face."

Although he scolded Zhao Ji, he didn't refuse when Zhao Ji took off his shoes.

The dim light shone on the master and apprentice, revealing a warm orange.

In fact, Zhao Ji is very obedient most of the time.

At this moment, Han Zhao thought of Zhao Ji's kindness again, and his heart softened.

When Zhao Ji lowered his head to wash his feet, he reached out and touched the ponytail on the top of Zhao Ji's head: "It will be your birthday in two months."

"Yes."

"what do you want?"

Zhao Ji tilted his head and thought for a while, as if he had thought of something, but he didn't say anything, just rolled his eyes and smiled: "I'll talk to Master after I think about it."

Han Zhao nodded: "Okay, remember to be early so I can get ready."

After saying this, Han Zhao sighed quietly: "You will be twenty in two years."

Twenty is a very delicate age, and at that year, it is time for Han Zhao to return Zhao Ji to his father.

Zhao Ji replied: "In another 20 years, I will also be by Master's side."

"Silly boy, don't you want to see the world?"

Zhao Ji replied without hesitation: "Go with Master."

Han Zhao sighed quietly: "There is no feast that never ends."

Zhao Ji couldn't hear such words the most, and immediately retorted: "Such words are used by people to comfort themselves for not doing anything. As long as they have the heart, they will not leave."

In his heart, everything in the world is not as important as Han Zhao, as long as he can be with Han Zhao, he is willing to give up anything.And Zhao Ji firmly believes that as long as he has this determination, no one can separate him from Han Zhao.

Han Zhao didn't refute Zhao Ji's words, because this kind of comprehension is incomprehensible, and time will definitely teach him this.

The author has something to say: Han Zhao: Think about where I went wrong

Zhao Ji: I figured it out!It's because the methods I adopted were not effective enough. If I could have recognized the essence of the incident earlier, I would have succeeded long ago!

Two and a half: Don’t you think it’s wrong for you to do this?

Zhao Ji: What?I was wrong?Where am I going wrong?There is no right or wrong in this world, only victory or defeat.

Two and a half: This baby is hopeless.

Han Zhao: Genetic issues have nothing to do with me.
