Zheng Ji was not surprised at all by Emperor Yongning's summons.
People from the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang joined her team. It would be strange if the father did not take care of such a big event.
Sure enough, as soon as she entered the Zichen Palace, she heard Emperor Yongning ask: "Changding, I heard that a girl from the Tao family is going to join your team?"
Zheng Ji nodded and smiled happily: "Yes, Father, I am so happy! I was just about to go into the palace to report to Father, but I didn't expect Father to find out so soon!"
Emperor Yongning laughed and asked gently: "Chang Ding, how did you know the girl from the Tao family? When did you get in touch with her?"
This is what he cares about most.
Chang Ding was able to contact the girl from the Tao family when he was not aware of it, which meant that the Jiang family was also able to contact the Tao family without telling everyone else.
The general's secret dealings with the richest man really didn't make him feel at ease.
Zheng Ji seemed completely unaware of Emperor Yongning's intentions and said honestly: "Father, it was Zhang Changshi who helped me find girls from the Tao family, not only girls from the Tao family, but also girls from the Lu family and girls from the Li family. , It’s a pity that they are not willing to come to Jingzhao Wuge.”
"Zhang Jian?" Emperor Yongning did not expect that Zhang Jian had something to do with it.
There are also girls from the Lu family and girls from the Li family. Who are these two?
"Father, after I entered the martial arts pavilion, I felt that it was too lonely to be alone in a girl's family, so I asked Zhang Jian to see the girls from the generals' families in the army. If they could come to Jingzhao martial arts pavilion to train together, then Very good……"
Only after Zheng Ji's detailed description did Emperor Yongning know what was going on.
It turned out that when Chang Ding first entered the martial arts pavilion, she wanted to find a partner to train with.
She is a princess of the imperial dynasty, and the companion she wants to train with must be from a girl's family, preferably from a military commander's family, so that she can enter the Jingzhao Martial Pavilion.
Zhang Jian was the chief historian of Princess Changding's mansion, so he followed Changding's instructions and searched for a suitable girl's home in various palaces.
Mainly, I still want these girls to come to Jingzhao Wuge to accompany Chang Ding.
After careful selection, Zhang Jian selected several girls from military generals' families.
In addition to Tao Jingyi from the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang, there are also Lu Nanying, the daughter of Lingnan Guard Captain Lu Xiao, and Li Zhuo, the granddaughter of Hanoi Guard Lieutenant Li Jingxian.
These three people are almost the same age as Chang Ding, and they all have martial arts skills.
According to Chang Ding, she sent letters of invitation to all three families, but the only one willing to come to Jingzhao Wuge was Tao Jingyi of the Tao family.
"Father, I have been waiting until now, but I didn't expect that only Tao Jingyi came." Zheng Ji replied, his tone still a little disappointed.
When Tao Jingyi appeared in Guichang earlier, she said in front of so many soldiers that she had been waiting for a long time. She believed that what she said at that time would be transmitted to her father's ears one by one.
As for inviting Lu Nanying and Li Zhuo, it was indeed true.
If the father wants to check the invitation letters she sent to these two places, he can naturally find them.
Since she wanted to have contact with the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang, she naturally made preparations in advance. The first thing was to guard against her father's suspicion.
The Tao family in Northern Xinjiang has a respected position in the military. They have been guarding Northern Xinjiang for the country and have almost no contact with officials of the imperial court.
Such a Tao family, even if they control one hundred thousand soldiers and horses of the Zhenbei Protectorate, makes my father feel at ease.
Even though the daughter of the Tao family was named one of the four concubines, and even if Concubine Tao Xian gave birth to a prince, the father always trusted the Tao family very much.
If there are no accidents, my father will always reuse the Tao family and use the Tao family to protect Northern Xinjiang.
Unfortunately, there will be accidents.
In three years, Tao Jingyuan will die, and things will happen to the men of the Tao family one after another...
She wants to change the fate of the Tao family and form an alliance with the Tao family. In the eyes of others, she wants to use the power of the Tao family in the military and has ulterior motives.
Of course there is a conspiracy, but it's really hard to tell what evil intentions he has.
Fortunately, she is a girl, and the Tao she chose
Jingyi is also a girl.
This in itself can offset many of the father's worries.
In addition, the girls from the Lu family and the Li family, with their father's cautious and suspicious temperament, will definitely not stop him for a while, but will only observe silently to see the consequences.
All she wants is this little time.
As long as her father did not issue a ban, Tao Jingyi could train with her at Jingzhao Wuge, and she would be confident enough to form an alliance with the Tao family.
She believed in herself, she believed in Fengju, and even more... the martial arts secrets created by Master Lu.
Feng Ju has already told her that he will use Master Lu's martial arts skills to train her team. ——No one can resist Master Lu’s martial arts skills, especially the people of the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang!
Seeing that Emperor Yongning was silent, Zheng Ji pretended to be sad and asked: "Father, don't you think that my team cannot pass the selection of Guichang? Although Tao Jingyi and I are both girls, we You won’t lose for sure!”
"..." Emperor Yongning was even more speechless after hearing these words.
Chang Ding didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with a girl from the Tao family joining her team. Was it because she was simple-minded or... the two families really didn't have any other plans?
Immediately, Emperor Yongning smiled and said: "Of course my daughter will not lose! Since you have such confidence, of course I will support you."
What can you understand if you decide to live with a girl?
He believed that Chang Ding really just wanted a companion who knew martial arts and could train with him in the martial arts pavilion, but in the end this companion became a girl from the Tao family, which is intriguing.
He didn't know who pushed the girl from the Tao family in front of Changding, and what the plan was for this move, but since the girl from the Tao family had appeared, he wanted to see what was going on.
Now, there is no need to prevent Chang Ding from having a good relationship with the daughter of the Tao family. .br>
When Zheng Ji saw this, he smiled with satisfaction: "I knew that my father loved me the most!"
She seemed to have remembered something, and continued: "Father, when I entered the palace, I heard that the mother-in-law and the Xianfei had a quarrel. The mother-in-law probably didn't like my association with the girls from the Tao family. I want to go Look at my mother-in-law."
"Go, your concubine is not fully recovered yet, don't let her worry." Emperor Yongning waved his hand, his expression becoming gentler.
After Zheng Ji left, Emperor Yongning was silent for a moment and then said calmly: "Xue Gong, do you believe Chang Ding's words?"
Xue Gong's heart tightened, and he replied with great respect: "Your Majesty, you have broken this slave. It is completely unimportant whether I believe your Highness's words or not."
What matters is whether the emperor believes it or not.
If the Emperor is willing to believe it, then what His Highness Chang Ding said is true. If the Emperor is not willing to believe it, then His Highness Chang Ding is deceiving the Emperor.
Let's see what the emperor is thinking.
