Chapter 595 Standing on an Invincible Ground
"These are all Zhao family secrets."
"Now that you know, are you sure you still want to put it in your yard?"
Zhao Zheng really hadn't figured out what to do with these items yet.
The capital city needed liaison stations to connect with the outside world, a task he could have previously undertaken, but now he also had the added function of relaying information from within the imperial city.
Originally, the Marquis of Chengyi's residence was the best choice, and it also had the best leader, but now they can only move back to the Zhao residence.
But the Zhao residence has always been transparent, so how should we proceed...?
Chongning and Xiaoqing's courtyard was indeed the best place to put these things.
Zhao Zheng can control all aspects of the puppet's expression, but he cannot control his own emotions.
Should we involve Chongning and Xiaoqing in this?
He has implicated far too many innocent people. Even though he has become a seasoned veteran and is so hypocritical and double-standard that he is almost a stranger to himself.
But for these two... the answer is obvious.
No.
"confidential!?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Zheng's concerns were precisely what Chong Ning and Xiao Qing had been striving for.
"Butler! Just put it in our courtyard. We'll keep it safe! If the Zhao family needs it, we'll simply leave!"
"..."
"Butler! Please say yes!"
"But what if I said it was a capital offense?"
The two persisted.
Zhao Zheng was in a state of confusion, and finally decided to remove his disguise.
Without his control, and with his heart set on something, a dark cloud quickly settled over his face.
In their eyes, it was Zhao Zheng finally revealing his true self, unable to control his emotions any longer, and showing himself to them in his true form.
Then they were truly treated as one of their own.
Sure enough, how could there be a steward like Lian Jiu in the Zhao family?
"We will definitely keep this a secret!"
Thinking of this, Chongning and Xiaoqing nodded again without any hesitation, looking at Zhao Zheng with hope.
As for the crime of execution, neither of them believed that what the Zhao family was about to do would be a disaster.
After all, if the Zhao family wanted to rebel and establish a new emperor, given their understanding of the Zhao family over the years, they would have done it long ago.
Since there's nothing to worry about, what's there to be concerned about?
"That......"
Zhao Zheng looked at the two of them and also wanted to agree at that time.
The two sensed the softening in Zhao Zheng's words, and their faces instantly lit up with joy.
"Then let's tidy up the storage room next to Chongning's room..."
The two were even more delighted and excited, and couldn't help but look at each other and give each other an encouraging glance.
"However, you two must divide the work. Xiaoqing will learn from me from now on, while Chongning will only be responsible for providing cover!"
"What! Control...?"
"Yes!" "Xiao Qing!"
"Yes......"
These things happened on that day.
On this day, Zhao Zheng truly realized that he was only standing on the shoulders of giants, and that he was not the only one contributing to this great cause he had ignited.
On that day, he truly realized what his greatest reliance was.
sorrow.
And he must make good use of this sorrow of his.
Similarly, for many people around the world, this day also brought an extra event.
Just one thing.
A marquis in the capital has died.
cheer.
Whether this marquis is a good person or a bad person, as long as he is a marquis, that is enough to cheer for.
It's a pity that the deceased wasn't a duke, otherwise there would have been more than just cheers; there would have been a celebration.
......
"Butler, this is not fair to His Highness."
"In terms of contributions and concern for everything within the manor, His Highness has made more than Xiaoqing."
It wasn't until the third day that something new happened.
Xiaoqing didn't sleep all night and went to Zhao Zheng, wanting to give Chongning the honor of having direct access to the Zhao family's secrets.
Because she understood that she had seen Chongning gazing at the sky in the courtyard all night.
But she didn't dare to comfort him; she could only wait until dawn to come and find the housekeeper.
She was just a maid; how could she be more favored than Princess Chongning?
"No, you still call Chongning Your Highness, and so do I, so only you are more appropriate."
"Xiaoqing, you can refuse this matter, including now, you still have the right to refuse."
"But you can't transfer it."
Once Zhao Zheng made up his mind, he wouldn't change it. He had too many things to worry about next.
Although Liu Gong's last words to him were very clear.
It wasn't just him who was taking action and making sacrifices.
But from his perspective, it's different.
The more he gives, the less his comrades have to sacrifice.
"All right......"
Xiaoqing was already terrified when she came to Zhao Zheng to plead for her, but now that Zhao Zheng had refused her with a dark expression, how could she dare to say anything more?
They could only hurry back to their yard and work together to clean up the storage room.
Fortunately, Chongning didn't pay attention to her departure, which finally made Xiaoqing feel a little relieved.
However, she didn't notice that in the few times she turned around...
Chongning still couldn't control himself, and disappointment welled up in his eyes.
......
Outside the imperial city, outside the Zhao residence.
There has always been a group of people like this.
Earlier, they were worried and furious about Zhao Zheng's audacity in proposing reforms targeting them.
You must understand, they are managing the country on behalf of the emperor! They have always been dedicated to promoting the Zhao family!
The emperor must have been bewitched by Zhao Zheng! The current head of the Zhao family must be a fool!
So they decided to make things difficult for the Zhao family.
After some time, they finally took action.
Their methods against Zhao Zheng were ruthless and unscrupulous.
In the end, they discovered that neither the loss of the Zhao family members nor the passive disclosure of the Zhao family's sacred principles had shaken the mindset of the family head, Zhao Zheng.
On the contrary, it caused them to lose a lot of strength, and many people fell from power and benefited from the fence-sitting.
Even though the Zhao family is publicly known and has no successor yet, every member of the Zhao family is extremely important.
The sacred doctrines have incited both those who read and those who don't to go mad.
This very concern prevented them from choosing targets that were too young when they were selecting assassination targets.
But what's going on with the Zhao family, and what's the story behind the head of the family, Zhao Zheng?
How can there be absolutely no reaction?!
They really couldn't understand it.
So it is today.
They lay down.
Because one of them suddenly had a flash of inspiration one day and suggested:
"Everyone! It seems to have started from when that Zhao family head proposed the reforms!"
"We've been the ones taking action and responding all along, while the Zhao family doesn't seem to have done anything proactively at all?"
If such words had been spoken before, these people would have definitely ostracized that person.
Faced with a formidable enemy, we should not take the initiative to attack, but instead remain on the defensive.
They even criticized their reactions as narcissism.
Isn't that just waiting to die and then deliberately courting death?
But now, it's different.
For months, they have not taken any further action since assassinating members of the Zhao family.
Even with the Zhao family and the emperor making moves, the patriarch Zhao Zheng has not given any response.
It seems that they have always been the ones actively providing Zhao Zheng with materials for the reform.
They oppose it, they target it, they oppose it in every way.
They fell apart internally, their power crumbled, and their reputation was ruined.
They're just being narcissistic!
"Keep quiet! That guy surnamed Zhao definitely knows that if he touches us, the world will be in turmoil! From the very beginning, we have been in an invincible position!"
