38. Chapter 38 The Price
After dismounting and entering the mansion, the servants diligently led the horse into the stable.
"Miss, please come over here." When the maid saw Tang Zijun coming back, she hurriedly greeted him.
"Oh." Tang Zijun turned around and went to Tang Haoyu's bedroom.
After pushing the door open and walking in, Tang Wei, who was sitting by the bed, quickly stood up and saluted: "Sister."
Tang Zijun ignored her and asked, "Dad, what do you want from me?"
"Your wedding will be in ten days, did you know?" Tang Haoyu asked half-sitting on the bed, not feeling very well.
"I know, I heard it from people on the street." Tang Zijun's indifferent attitude made Tang Haoyu, who finally felt better, cough violently.
"Father, be careful." Tang Wei hurried over and patted Tang Haoyu on the back.
Tang Haoyu waved his hand and was about to say something when he heard Tang Zijun muttering dissatisfied: "Shouldn't the emperor give me an edict for this kind of thing? There is not even an imperial edict, really."
"The emperor's imperial edict has come down, where are you? You are in Qunfang Tower! Do you want the emperor's imperial edict to be sent to a brothel? How unbecoming is it?" Tang Haoyu angrily yelled, his sickly face turned red with anger.
"Dad, Qunfang House is no longer a brothel. You still call it a brothel. It's a great injustice to the girls there." Tang Zijun felt unfair for Qunfang House.
"What is it if it's not a brothel? The people there are all people from the former brothel!" Tang Haoyu was so angry that he coughed again.
"Sister, please stop saying a word. My father's health has just improved." Tang Wei said distressedly.
Tang Zijun shrugged indifferently, compromising for the time being.
"There are still ten days left. You stay at home well and you are not allowed to go anywhere. You are not allowed to go to Qunfang Building!" Tang Haoyu ordered.
Tang Zijun frowned and muttered in a low voice: "That's not to suffocate people to death."
"Stay with me even if you are suffocated!" Tang Haoyu scolded after scolding, "Get out of here!"
"Oh." Tang Zijun responded, turned around and left.
Tang Haoyu lay down directly on the bed and sighed: "Is this my daughter? She's just here to collect debts!"
"Father, you can't be angry." Tang Wei said hurriedly.
Tang Haoyu glanced at Tang Wei and said softly: "You are tired too, go back to your room and rest."
"Yes, father." Tang Wei stood up, saluted and left.
Back in her room, Zuo Sixiang happened to be there.
Tang Wei went over happily and said, "Mom, dad is getting better and better to me now."
"Of course. Tang Zijun doesn't live up to expectations, and now you are the only one he can count on." Zuo Sixiang said with satisfaction, "Tang Zijun will marry to the Prince's Mansion soon. By then, there will be only one person in the General's Mansion.
You are a young lady. If your father doesn’t love you, who will you love?”
Tang Wei bit her lip and said frustratedly: "It's a pity that the prince still wants to marry Tang Zijun."
"It doesn't matter. The prince was forced by the emperor." Zuo Sixiang was not worried at all, "As long as the prince marries you as his concubine in a few months, the prince's feelings for you can't be suppressed by the prince.
Is Tang Zijun helpless? In a few months, I’m afraid even the master will be on your side. Tang Zijun and his daughter are finished!"
"Yes, Mom is right!" Tang Wei nodded and smiled, then put on a bitter face, "Mom, I'm so tired. I've never served anyone like this."
