Today, he is dressed in brocade robes and gorgeous clothes. He has a tall and straight figure. In the night, he is wearing a long gown with a dark blue background, which makes him look even more outstanding. Gao Zhang is walking up the stairs.
"Xian son-in-law, you came just in time..."
Wu Zhizhong looked at Xiao Gao who had dressed up carefully. Even if he was just a lover, right, he was just a marriage middleman.
But this also made him feel quite proud of having such a cheap and beloved son-in-law.
Wu Zhizhong stood up and strode towards the hall door.
All the colleagues also looked at the prodigy champion in unison.
Everyone is a scholar, and there are even two champions serving in the Ministry of Rites.
But when it comes to the handsome and well-known prodigy champion in front of him, people always feel ashamed.
The arrival of Gao Zhang can be regarded as a time when Emperor Ji became a monk, and the incident of Wu Shangshu's adoption of Emperor Ji set an exclamation point that made everyone stunned!
Naturally, there are also smart people, who related the rumor that Emperor Ji became a monk because she could not marry her sweetheart, and then combined it with the scene in front of her.
It seems that the truth has emerged, although not many people speculate this.
However, everyone would rather this guess be true, otherwise, Gao Zhang's shit luck would be too good, right?
As Gao Zhang appeared at the family banquet of Wu Zhizhong, the Minister of Rites, he expressed to Wu Zhizhong in front of many officials that he was willing to keep his promise and marry Wu Zhizhong's beloved daughter.
That night, many officials who were unhappy or had a strong desire to talk found their own social circles and spread the news.
The next day, almost all of Tokyo and Bianliang knew that Gao Zhang, the child prodigy and number one scholar, went to Wu Zhizhong's mansion to ask for the young lady Fu Jin.
Especially when some people put their speculations into the social circle and start to analyze them layer by layer.
It was determined that it was the Maode Emperor who was madly in love with this young prodigy who became famous, but she was hindered by the regulations of the Song Dynasty.
The prince-in-law was not allowed to be involved in politics or hold important positions, in order to prevent the future of this prodigy who had the talent to become a general or prime minister from being hindered.
At the same time, he was unwilling to give up and marry those mediocre people, so he fled into Buddhism. He would rather stay in the company of the ancient Buddha Qingdeng and pray for his beloved throughout his life.
However, Wu Zhizhong, a loyal minister, also felt very sorry for the tragic fate of Emperor Maode.
She also thought of the joke promise she made with Xiao Gao, the champion, and decided to take action and adopt her as her stepdaughter...
Unexpectedly, fate was so twisty and wonderful. The child prodigy returned to Bianliang, Tokyo, and was greatly shocked after learning what the Maode Emperor had done.
He also decided to fulfill the agreement he had made with Wu Shangshu and finally let Emperor Maode marry the man she had longed for.
And because she is no longer the Emperor Ji, she will naturally not let her husband's future be hindered because the two of them have lost their heads.
Although there are several versions of the rumor, this version is the most popular and the one that makes people cry the most.
There are even many poets and poets who have written many excellent works for this purpose for people to sing.
Even the people in Tokyo who usually like to poke their spines and scold the foolish king have a strong reversal in their perception of this foolish king.
After all, this foolish father can silently plan for his children, and finally let his beloved daughter get married with her beloved. This is enough to become a role model for many parents.
No matter how the rumors spread, they could no longer affect Gao Zhang.
After returning to the court, Gao Zhang was promoted to the Privy Council for his meritorious service, although he still encountered opposition from many people.
Some people even directly cited Gao Zhang's desire to marry Emperor Maode as a reason.
However, such an idiot was directly dealt with by Wu Zhizhong and the official Zhao Ji, so that he did not dare to say a word.
After all, Wu Zhizhong's adoption was already a blessing to the nun. From a legal point of view, the moment she escaped into Buddhism, she was no longer an emperor's concubine, but just a daughter of an official.
However, there are only a few people who use this as a reason. Naturally, there are also some people who think Gao Zhang is too young.
It is really inappropriate to become such an important and confidential minister at such a young age.
But at the same time, many officials also expressed their support for Gao Zhang's promotion to this position.
Even the privy envoy Zheng Juzhong also stood on the side of the officials and highly recognized Gao Zhang's talents and abilities.
Just when all parties in the court were fighting for Xiao Gao's future, the mission just ended.
After getting some rest, Gao Zhang, under the urging of his impatient parents, got married to his two confidantes, Fu Jin and Bai Hua.
When the marriage came to an end, Gao Zhang's imperial edict to confer office and sign the Privy Council affairs was finally issued.

"Little sister, come on, can you challenge me again?" The energetic voice was full of vigor and vitality.
"...No, sir, please stop talking. I'm really tired."
There was a sense of laziness and sleepiness in his dying breath, as well as a bit of shyness and helplessness.
Gao Zhang still persisted in persuading this young lady who seemed to be very capable of fighting.
"Then you can just pretend to provoke me."
"..." Then I saw the young lady covering her head with a thin quilt, and then pointed her finger towards the door.
"Sigh... Come on, since the wife is so proud of her immunity from fighting, how about I let you go for the time being?"
The young lady was extremely tired and rolled her eyes under the thin quilt, not wanting to say another word to this young man who could make people happy.
Not long after, Gao Zhang heard slight snoring coming from under the thin quilt. After carefully exposing the face of the young lady who had become his wife, Gao Zhang quietly left the room. .
Then he quietly walked to the separate room next door and knocked on the door.
A very nervous voice came from inside.
"who?"
"It's me, your husband..."
"The young lady has gone to bed."
"...Fujin, please open the door for me. Don't think that you can deceive your husband just because you have some skills with words."
"This slave is really not a young lady..."
"Haha, my husband is observing the night scene today, and I have gained something by chance. I am looking for a close friend who can add fragrance to the ink I grind with my bare hands..."
Before he finished speaking, the door quietly opened, and he saw Fu Jin, with a pink face and wide eyes staring alertly.
"Mr. Lang, let's just talk about poetry, okay? No more nonsense."
As soon as these words came out, Gao Zhang's expression suddenly became serious and he spoke with reason.
"Look at you, if my character is not good, how can you marry me, madam?"
"..." Miss Fujin tilted her head, and it seemed that this was really what Lang Jun said.
Fu Jin, who was once again explained by Lang Jun, pushed open the door and let this little Lang Jun, who has had eight-pack abs for several years and does squats as his daily exercise every day, enter the room...
