Zhao Fujin looked at his father who had a serious expression in front of him with a confused look on his face, and grabbed the other man's hand with his backhand full of fear.
"Dad, don't you want to recognize your daughter?"
I saw Zhao Ji, his biological father who claimed to be Mingjun in front of him, chuckled, showed an expression of calculation, and shook his fingers.
"Of course not, dad just thought of a person who can allow you to marry Xiao Gao, but also prevent him from being criticized by the world's officials.
It will not interfere with his future prospects and prevent him from getting into good positions. "
"But Fujin, don't forget that there is a Fang daughter who is already engaged beside Xiao Gao..."
Zhao Ji, an official, stroked his short beard and let out a long sigh before speaking.
"Although dad and Xiao Gao are master and apprentice, they share the same love as father and son. The Fang girl is also a girl from a good family."
"In the past, Xiao Gao went south to the south of the Yangtze River and encountered the Zhu family's rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River. This female family did a lot to help Xiao Gao put down the Zhu family's rebellion."
"What's more, Xiao Gao wrote to inform me that he has made an agreement with Fang's daughter about Qin and Jin, and my father has agreed to it. How can he break his promise and get rich?"
"Therefore, it is inconvenient for my father to stop Xiao Gao from marrying Fang's daughter. Therefore, if you are willing to have two daughters share the same husband, my father is willing to help you."
"If you don't want to, then you'd better choose another good match."

His father's advice reminded Zhao Fujin of the first time he learned from his father that brother Xiao Gao had met the woman named Fang Baihua in Jiangnan.
He actually made an appointment with that woman after only a few meetings, but this made Zhao Fujin sad for a long time, and he was already disheartened.
However, whenever there was news about Brother Xiao Gao, she couldn't help but cheer for it, beaming, and feeling more and more that Brother Xiao Gao was her beloved.
For this reason, she even tried to ask her eldest brother to help her convey the news to her biological father, but was rejected by her biological father. This was another blow to her, and she even considered becoming a monk.
But he never thought that his father would suddenly give him a new choice today.
This really made Zhao Fujin overjoyed, but when he thought of the little sister Fang Baihua next to Brother Xiao Gao, whom he only heard of by name but had never met, he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.
However, as a precocious and well-informed Emperor Ji, Zhao Fujin also knew very well.
Just like there are so many concubines in your biological father's harem that you can't even recognize them all. It is said that your biological father still has other concubines outside the palace, well...
Looking at his father's meaningful expression, Zhao Fujin finally nodded firmly.
"Dad, my daughter has already made up her mind. If she cannot marry brother Xiao Gao, she would rather escape from the world of mortals."
"In that case, daddy will help you to become a monk smoothly."
"Dad, what do you want to help your daughter?"
Zhao Fujin felt numb all over. Was there something wrong with his ears or was his father going astray and helping him become a monk? What about my little brother Gao?
"Come on, come on, listen carefully to what daddy is telling you..."
Zhao Ji, an official, came close to his daughter Zhao Fujin's ear and murmured for a while. Zhao Fujin's bright, watery eyes suddenly widened.
Looking at his father Zhao Ji with a face full of disbelief, he really felt that the evaluation of his father by the people of the Song Dynasty was not unreasonable.
After all, how could a serious Mingjun come up with such a bizarre trick to avoid it.
But when I think about it, my biological father is willing to marry the one he likes just for him. Such an approach can indeed make the world speechless.
As for the fact that there is no way to criticize my biological father on the surface, privately, I guess...
Zhao Fujin, who had a well-behaved face and a heart full of joy, couldn't help but whispered worriedly.
"Dad, my daughter heard that Wu Shangshu is upright and loyal, and is not easy to deal with. Can he agree to such a thing?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fujin heard a hearty smile from his own father.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Let dad take care of everything. In short, you will definitely marry Xiao Gao as you wish.
In this way, Xiao Gao and his father are not only masters and disciples, but also Weng's son-in-law. They are a family, and Xiao Gao will definitely be very happy..."
Looking at his biological father who was smiling with joy, Zhao Fujin felt for no reason that his biological father seemed to be happy not only because he was marrying the person he loved.
Instead, his beloved disciple became his beloved son-in-law, which seemed to make people more happy.
This made Zhao Fujin filled with joy, but he also felt that his father's laughter disturbed his mood.
But when I thought that I really had a chance to marry the man I loved, my heart was filled with sweetness again.

Wu Zhizhong walked quickly towards the imperial study. As soon as the court meeting was over, the officials came to look for him, saying they had important matters to discuss.
Naturally, Wu Zhizhong did not dare to neglect, and soon he arrived at the imperial study room.
After entering the Imperial Study Room, I saw the official smiling and talking quietly to his beloved daughter, Emperor Maode, Zhao Fujin.
This made Zhao Fujin blush with embarrassment and become irritated. After seeing Wu Zhizhong coming, Zhao Fujin quickly lowered his head to avoid being noticed by others.
"Old minister, see your majesty, see your highness the emperor..."
Wu Zhizhong happily bowed to the father and daughter before standing still.
Then he heard the official Zhao Ji pointing at him with a smile, muttering a few words in a low voice towards the Maode Emperor, and then signaled his beloved daughter to leave.
"Old Wu, Ai Qing, how is this girl of mine?"
"In the official family, Emperor Maode is gentle, witty, intelligent, and kind-hearted. She is really a model among women..."
"Hahaha, what Mr. Wu Aiqing said is in my heart. I also feel that among all my children, Maode understands my feelings best..."
As he said this, Wu Zhizhong turned his head and looked at the official Zhao Ji who was smiling meaningfully.
I'm a little confused as to what the official meant by this.
Zhao Ji, the official, met Wu Zhizhong's doubtful eyes and motioned for him to sit down first before speaking leisurely.
"Wu Aiqing, do you still remember that before Xiao Gao left Beijing, I talked to you and Xiao Gao here..."
"At that time, the boy also said that if Wu Aiqing had a daughter, he would make her a good match and marry Qin and Jin."
"At that time, I heard it with my own ears here. I didn't know that Wu Aiqing..."
"..." As soon as he said this, Wu Zhizhong, who was nearly eighty years old, turned slightly dark and subconsciously lowered his head slightly.
What do you mean? Could it be that this foolish emperor with a brilliant mind wants to urge him to take a concubine?
"Officials, the veteran is so old that he really can't make such a joke. However, if the veteran gets a granddaughter, he must make Xiao Gao admit his fault."
"In that case, this matter can be done, hahaha..."
"???"
