Not to mention Wang Cong, even Zheng Ji couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise when he saw this greeting.
The person who submitted this invitation was none other than Dou Shiyuan.
She was the first civil servant to recruit since her rebirth.
She really didn't expect that Dou Shiyuan would act like this, at this time.
After thinking for a moment, she couldn't help but laugh.
As expected of the Dou family of officials, worthy of Dou Shiyuan, who is known as the "Dou Fox"! He couldn't help laughing.
"See!"
She handed the invitation to Zhang Jian and said only this word.
"Yes, Your Highness." Zhang Jian took the invitation with joy on his face.
He was happy for His Highness. His Highness had always wanted to recruit the Dou family. Now it seemed that His Highness got what he wanted.
Although he had always been afraid and prejudiced against Dou Hu, it had to be said that the invitation sent in at this time eliminated many of his worries.
Now Princess Changding's palace is at the forefront of the storm, and the DPRK is talking a lot about Cheng Yong's death, thinking that Her Highness scared Cheng Yong to death.
Such rumors are really ridiculous, but they can't stop three people from becoming a tiger.
Under such a situation, even people who have close contact with each other will deliberately avoid three points, let alone other people.
Anyone who comes over at this time is either too stupid or too smart.
Judging from Dou Shiyuan's character, it was naturally a smart move.
It’s easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to provide help when it’s time.
With this invitation, His Highness will think more highly of Dou Shiyuan.
Zheng Ji smiled and said: "Let's go, there is no need to guess, we will know in three days."
She knew that Dou Shiyuan would respond to her solicitation sooner or later, but she thought it would take some time before the Dou family could make a decision.
Perhaps, the Dou family is still waiting for a suitable opportunity.
Unexpectedly, the Cheng Yong incident would put Princess Changding's Mansion at the center of the storm.
In the view of the Dou family, the time has come?
This was interesting. She had never heard of any grudges between the Dou family and the Cheng family.
Of course, this is all her guess. She can only decide what will happen after meeting Dou Shiyuan.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Dou Shiyuan, dressed in casual clothes and accompanied by the old housekeeper of the Dou family, arrived at the Princess Changding Mansion.
He was calm and composed, as if he didn't know there were countless prying eyes in the dark, and there was a hint of smile on his handsome face.
It was Zhang Jian who came to greet him.
The two of them were officials in the same dynasty, so even if they didn't have much interaction before, they both understood each other at the first glance.
Both of them knew that the other was a smooth fox, and they both smiled and exchanged pleasantries.
The place where Zheng Ji received Dou Shiyuan was the Juxian Hall of Princess Changding Mansion.
This Juxian Hall, like many mansions, is used to receive important guests. It is one of the three halls of Princess Changding Mansion.
As the name suggests, her purpose of meeting Dou Shiyuan here is obvious.
When Dou Shiyuan stepped into Juxian Hall, he raised his eyes slightly, and when he saw the plaque "Juxian Hall", he knew it well.
Immediately, he saw Zheng Ji sitting at the top.
At this time, Zheng Ji was dressed quite formally, with a phoenix robe and a phoenix crown on his head. His gorgeous face carried an indescribable majesty, aloof and inviolable.
Dou Shiyuan's eyes moved slightly, he stepped forward and said, "Greetings to Your Highness."
Zheng Ji nodded and replied: "No need to be polite, just sit down."
Dou Shiyuan sat down as he was told, and then the waiter came forward to serve tea and quickly withdrew.
Also retreating together were Zhang Jian and other Chang Ding soldiers.
In an instant, there were only three people left in the huge Juxian Hall.
Li Xing'en stood behind Zheng Ji, his eyes roamed over Dou Shiyuan, and then he picked up the teacup and handed it to Zheng Ji.
Zheng Ji took the tea cup and took a sip, looked at Dou Shiyuan with a smile, and said, "Master Dou, have you thought about it before you come here?"
"Go back to Your Highness, I've thought about it." Dou Shiyuan replied with the same smile.
After saying that, he stood up, bent down deeply, put his hands forward, and said in a solemn tone, "Your Highness, the Dou family is willing to be driven by Your Highness, no matter how hard it is!"
Zheng Ji stood up, walked to Dou Shiyuan, raised his arm, and said seriously: "Get up. This palace does not need you to mess around, we only need the Dou family to devote their talents."
Her support showed such inner strength that Dou Shiyuan, a civil servant, had to straighten up and look at her level.
Only then did he realize that His Highness Chang Ding was actually not much shorter than him. .
Yes, His Highness Changding is a martial arts practitioner. This...is this the advantage of a martial arts practitioner?
Zheng Ji let go of Dou Shiyuan and suddenly asked: "The Dou family, are you not afraid?"
Dou Shiyuan knew what Zheng Ji meant, and he didn't need to think too much, so he replied: "What are you afraid of? The Dou family has already made a choice, so there is no need to be afraid."
He knew very well that many people were paying close attention to Princess Changding's Mansion. From the moment he appeared outside Princess Changding's Mansion, he had entered the sight of these people.
He had thought clearly before submitting his greetings.
Since you have chosen to seek refuge in Princess Changding's Mansion, there is no need to hide your head and show your tail.
Regarding the future direction of the Dou family, this is not something to be ashamed of or shrink from.
"Even if you will suffer countless attacks?" Zheng Ji asked.
Dou Shiyuan nodded firmly and said, "Yes, even if he will suffer many attacks."
Princess Changding's Mansion has attracted much attention, and the Dou family's surrender has set up a target, and it will definitely suffer many attacks and even persecution.
These are all predictable things.
An effective way to avoid these attacks is to always hide in the dark. This will also serve His Highness, but will not cause too much damage.
But Dou Shiyuan didn't want to choose this method, and the Dou family wouldn't do it either.
He chose Princess Changding because he believed she could go far, and he believed she could protect the Dou family.
Since the Dou family is looking for shelter, how can they not be harmed at all?
What's more, even if he didn't show up at Princess Changding's mansion, there would still be many plans that had been going on secretly.
He just wanted to take this opportunity to tell those who were secretly weaving a web that even if the Dou family was stuck in the web, there was still a way to break free.
He came here to show His Highness Changding that the Dou family's reliance on Princess Changding was fair and honest, and there was no need to go astray or covertly.
At this moment, when he saw the smile in Zheng Ji's eyes, he knew that he was on the right track.
Just as Mr. Taifu said, His Highness can use whoever he wants, but if the Dou family wants to continue to prosper, then it depends on how attentive His Highness is.
After meeting Du Fengju, his previous hesitation slowly disappeared, and he gradually became firm about the path the Dou family wanted to take. After Tao Jingyi appeared in Northern Xinjiang, he had actually made a decision.
However, he felt that the best time had not yet come.
Until Cheng Yong's incident happened, he knew that the best time for the Dou family to surrender to His Highness Chang Ding had come.
"Why?"
Zheng Ji was really curious, why did the Dou family think this was the best time?
Is there any dispute between the Dou family and the Cheng family that she doesn't know about?
