Interaction

After placing Mr. Lu in Baizhen Tower, the sky was getting dark.

Lu Yaoyao took Qiu Yu back to the Xu family.

She had just returned to the small courtyard when Xu Zhao got the news from the main courtyard.

Immediately bring the invitation and go to Lu Yaoyao's yard.

He walked in with a smile on his face, and after some false greetings, he took out the invitation.

"Yao Yao, this is an invitation from the eldest princess. She has a transcendent status. If you don't go, I'm afraid she will blame you."

"You continue."

He originally wanted to talk about his stepmother, but thinking about what happened in the afternoon, he quickly changed his mind.

"That Mrs. Gao has such a temper. Although you don't recognize her as your stepmother, she is my father's stepwife after all, and she can be considered an elder."

"You should be more patient."

When he said these words, Lu Yaoyao was playing with an empty cup on the table.

Obviously, she didn't listen to a word.

Seeing her like this, the smile on Xu Zhao's face froze.

"Yao Yao, you will be a hairdresser in a while. I made an agreement with your uncle to find a good family for you."

"This time the eldest princess holds a birthday banquet, and all the dignitaries in the capital will attend."

"There are many princes and grandsons among them. You are so good-looking. If you are attracted by that man and you will prosper in the future, it will also fulfill your grandfather and uncle's wish, right?"

Lu Yaoyao, who had been playing with the empty cup, suddenly paused.

Seeing that she had listened, Xu Zhao quickly continued, "Dad, I know that you have always been dissatisfied with me asking for money from the Lu family these years."

"Dad, this is also for you."

"I don't have a foundation. Making friends requires money, and there's nothing I can do about it."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao raised his head and glanced at him, with a deep sneer on his lips.

"Then what has Mr. Xu done with the money these years?"

"In ten years, aren't you still a fifth-grade idle clerk?"

Her words were like a knife, piercing Xu Zhao's heart.

After ten years of hard work, it ended up like this. This was the pain in Xu Zhao's heart.

Just as Gao didn't want to be called the Second Madam, Xu Zhao's heart was filled with anger at this time.

However, after all, he was someone who had been in the officialdom, and his ability and endurance were much deeper than those of the Gao family.

He only stiffened for a moment, and then showed a wry smile.

"It's no use, dad. He regrets it now."

"I don't know if I will have a chance to go up there in the future. Although Mrs. Gao is arrogant and domineering, she was born well."

"In this situation, Dad must rely on her background."

"You also need to rely on her connections to find a good family. Yaoyao, you don't want to marry a mediocre person in the future, right?"

"If that's the case, how disappointed will your grandfather and uncle be?"

Listening to his hypocritical words, Lu Yaoyao sneered secretly in his heart, but it didn't show on his face at all.

He glanced at the invitation in his hand.

"What you said is fine, but Mrs. Gao has never wanted to see me. If I follow her, do you think she will introduce me to some good people?"

Xu Zhao, who was sitting opposite, was overjoyed.

If there is no rejection, there is a show, and what she said at this time is obviously that she is attracted to the prince and grandson he just mentioned.

"Don't worry about that. Dad will be there when the time comes. With me watching, she won't dare to mess around."

Lu Yaoyao sneered in his heart.

I felt that Xu Zhao was completely treating her as a fool.

He also looked at it. If he could really be useful, he wouldn't be oppressed by the Gao family.

Although I complained in my heart, the play still had to go on.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Zhao thought she didn't have confidence in him, so he quickly spoke again.

"Yaoyao, the situation is different now. You have been at home for a long time without knowing something."

"The current situation of the Gao family in the court is not very good."

"Oh? How powerful is the Prime Minister? He is a very popular minister. Who can make things difficult for him?"

Lu Yaoyao showed an innocent expression, and her brows were full of doubts.

"Hey, it's not because of some things that happened recently."

"Now the high minister and the eldest prince are in the same faction. Who is the eldest prince?"

"Although the eldest son of the Queen of the Middle Palace has not yet been established as the prince, it will be a matter of time."

"Gao relative met the future prince, and the result is self-evident."

If this was the case, Lu Yaoyao's heart sneered again.

Xu Zhao, Xu Zhao, really deceived her as a fool.

In her opinion, it was unusual for the eldest prince to be at this age and not yet established as a prince.

The eldest son of Zhonggong, and supported by the Duke of Tartar Town and other generals behind him.

It's very powerful, but if it's so powerful that even the emperor is afraid, that's not a good thing.

If it was really so appropriate, there wouldn't be an edict to establish a reserve until now.

As for what will happen if Gao relative falls in love with the prince.

Xu Zhao didn't say it explicitly, but the implication behind his words was that he was not optimistic about Gao Xiang.

This really means that she doesn’t understand court at all.

Gao Xiangruo is so easy to deal with. Why haven't we dealt with him after all these years?

The emperor cannot even think about it, so what if the eldest prince becomes the prince?

"I don't understand the affairs of the court. Mr. Xu has something to say."

Seeing her like this, Xu Zhao smiled contemptuously in his heart.

"This time I was demoted because of the Gao family's mistakes. This is a signal from above that the Gao family is about to fall."

"As a father, I won't hide it from you. I actually have some selfish motives for asking you to attend the birthday party of the eldest princess this time."

Lu Yaoyao raised his eyebrows, and the doubt in his eyes became even more intense.

Xu Zhao, who had been staring at her, felt a wave of contempt in his heart when he saw her look.

She said she understood it so well, but she still didn't understand it. She was as stupid as her mother.

"I hope you can find a good home and help me when the time comes."

Lu Yaoyao knew he would say this.

He laughed out loud at that moment, and his originally puzzled look turned into a joke.

"You have a good plan, but why should I help you?"

"Also, aren't you afraid that I will take revenge on you after I gain power?"

Hearing this, Xu Zhao sneered in his heart, still thinking about gaining power, it was just an idiot's dream.

"If you want revenge, you are asking for it for your father. After all, it was me who did something wrong back then."

"Back then I was a poor scholar, how could I be so poor no matter how poor I was?"

When he said this, Xu Zhao's face showed regret and self-mockery.

Lu Yaoyao looked at him steadily.

After a while, Xu Zhao spoke again.

"This birthday banquet of the eldest princess is an opportunity for you. No matter what you think, I hope you can go. Not for others, but for yourself, so you should go."

With that said, he stood up and placed the invitation on the table next to Lu Yaoyao.

Then without saying another word, he turned around and walked out.

Looking at his slightly lonely back, Lu Yaoyao's lips curved into a hint of sarcasm.

For this kind of acting, in his previous life, he would have definitely won awards.

However, acting is always acting, and in reality, it is all fake.

"Miss, has Xu Zhao's conscience discovered this?"

Obviously, Qiu Yu was deceived by Xu Zhao's series of performances just now.
