Chapter 570 Uncle
Hearing this, Qi Sanlang raised his head and drank the remaining soup cleanly, his eyes full of ill intentions: "Third Master is indeed thoughtful."
They were considerate, but Zhao Shan, who had just filled his stomach and was about to go back for a nap, was not in a good mood.
No matter who has just laid down, covered himself with the quilt and closed his eyes for a short while, it would not be a good thing if several burly men dragged him out of the quilt, gagged him, and kidnapped him while he was half asleep.
Of course, because Zhao Shan was an official, the guards gave him special treatment - after knocking him unconscious, his mouth was gagged tightly.
When he woke up again, he was already on the boat.
on the deck.
Zhao Ji gazed into the distance, admiring the scenery he had never seen before, and couldn't help but think of the woman, Sun, who had accompanied him in Guazhou for his entire life and never left his side until his death.
Cui Bianxu went to Guazhou and rescued them, but before they could be happy, he took them back and threatened Zhao Sheng...
If Sun hadn't found an opportunity and risked her life to let him escape, he would probably be dead now...
Zhao Sheng is not a good person, and Cui Yi, who has Zhao blood, is even worse!
Since you have rescued them, why not let them go?
This time, he not only wanted to cut off Zhao Sheng's way to get close to the prince, but also used Cui Yi and his wife to avenge Sun.
More importantly, he left a portrait, and the King of Wei promised that after the matter was completed, he would give him a new title of Sun...
"Third Master, Zhao Shan is awake."
Zhao Ji withdrew his thoughts, concealed the dark currents in his eyes, and put on a kind smile: "Why don't you invite them here quickly."
"Yes!"
The guard was about to take his orders and leave when he heard him say, "Today is a perfect day for tea and chess. I think this place is nice. Let's have it set up."
"Yes."
As soon as Zhao Shan found himself on the boat, he knew that something was wrong.
This group of people were indeed targeting Cui Yi and Aunt Jiang!
Maybe I will even use myself to threaten the two of them to achieve something unspeakable.
But he was so weak that he couldn't even escape from these people, let alone on the river. Even on land, Zhao Shan was a little annoyed that he had been weak since childhood and didn't like to practice martial arts.
Otherwise, how could he be tricked so easily?
When the guards went to invite him, he had a wry smile on his face. Everyone was already here, so whether he was invited or not, how could he not go?
Zhao Shan maintained his image and strode out with an expressionless face. He wanted to see who was tired of living and wanted to pick a fight with Cui Yi.
But when he saw the figure on the deck, he was instantly confused - who is this?
He had never seen such an official in Chang'an City.
Just as he was puzzled, the man heard the noise, turned around, and laughed heartily: "Hahahaha, Xingcheng, it's been a long time since we last met. You've grown into such a handsome and graceful figure. Time really spares no one. Your father and I are both old!"
This person knows me? And also knows my own Aye?
Zhao Shan's scalp tightened instantly - damn it, did Aye try so hard to find me? Would he be beaten half to death if he went back?
As his throat rolled, Zhao Shan felt his voice was a little hoarse: "May I know who you are?"
Zhao Ji's smile faded, and he said unhappily, "How could you have forgotten me, kid? I held you in my arms when you were little!"
As he spoke, he gestured, and a smile of reminiscence reappeared on his face.
Zhao Shan pursed his lips and stood there without moving - he had seen it when he was a child, how young was he?
Seeing this, Zhao Ji waved his hand, motioning him to come over and sit down. After he sat down, he personally poured tea for Zhao Shan and then said, "My Zhao family originated in the Warring States Period, but as the tree grows, branches branch out. The Tianshui Zhao family is the direct branch..."
Zhao Shan was no fool. He stared at Zhao Ji's face for a while and asked tentatively, "Could it be that you are the third uncle of the Zhao family of Dunhuang?"
The Tianshui Zhao family branched out into more than just the Dunhuang Zhao family, but the environment in the Dunhuang Zhao family was the worst. It was not difficult to tell from the skin color and the skin on the hands of the person in front of him that this was the result of many years of hard work.
There are only three people in the Dunhuang Zhao family who are of the same generation as my father-in-law - Zhao Sheng, Zhao Shu and Zhao Ji.
Zhao Sheng’s age does not match, so only Zhao Shu and Zhao Ji are left.
He had also heard of Zhao Shu's name. If he was a traitor from the Tianshui Zhao family, then Cui Yi's grandfather Zhao Shu was a good-for-nothing playboy from the Dunhuang Zhao family.
I am not good at either literature or martial arts, but I have a good fate.
The person in front of him looked unlucky and could only be the only illegitimate son, Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji hadn't expected him to guess it right on the first try, and couldn't help but treat this young man with more caution: "As your father said in the letter, you are a smart child. No wonder everyone in our Zhao family is rough and rude, but you are the reincarnation of the literary star."
"Uncle Ji, you are so kind."
Zhao Shan had heard this kind of casual talk before, but he didn't take it to heart. He said with a fake smile, "I wonder what Uncle Ji wants to tell me. You are the elder, so if there is anything I can help with, please just let me know."
Guazhou is thousands of miles away from here, how could he get here?
A man has to bow his head under the eaves. If it were in Chang'an City, Zhao Shan would have used everything he had learned in his life to scold him.
Zhao Ji didn't answer, but smiled and said, "I heard your father has also arrived in Chang'an? I will come to visit him in person in a few days."
"Yes, I haven't been home since I entered the court as an official. My father was worried about me, so I came to Chang'an to visit him." The person Zhao Shan couldn't bear to hear the most now was his father. His heart skipped a beat but he had to pretend to be calm and made a random move.
Zhao Ji had a faint smile on his lips as he made his move and said, "As parents, everything we do is for our children. You are not young anymore, and your father should find a good marriage for you to continue the Zhao family's lineage."
He was a country bumpkin from Guazhou, but the guards around King Wei were not.
Others didn't know about what happened between Zhao Shan and Li Xueyan, but how could the King of Wei, who was bent on climbing up the social ladder and always paying attention to what was happening in Chang'an City, not know about it?
"A real man should put his future first." Zhao Shan's fragile heart was stabbed again at this moment, and his expression was almost unbearable.
Zhao Ji acted like an elder very well: "As the saying goes, first get married, then build a career. You are now a scholar of Jixian Hall at such a young age. Now that the world is stable and prosperous, it is the time for civil servants to show their talents..."
Having said this, he met Zhao Shan's gaze with a meaningful expression without shying away: "As long as you follow the right person, why worry about not being able to marry the young lady of your dreams?"
