At this moment, a series of hoofbeats interrupted his thoughts.

He turned his head and saw a familiar figure approaching on horseback.

"Old Cao?"

Zhao Hao raised his eyebrows: "It's late at night, why are you here?"

If the person is not Eunuch Cao, who could it be?

Eunuch Cao jumped off his horse, walked up to Zhao Hao with small steps, and said respectfully, "Master Hao! I am here to deliver a message for the emperor!"

emperor?

Zhao Hao squinted his eyes, then smiled and made a gesture of invitation: "Please come inside! It's because we just had dinner, so you probably won't be able to catch up!"

Eunuch Cao laughed again and again: "You are just kidding, come to see Master Hao, I must be full in advance!"

It's not like I haven't been hungry before when I came to Zhen Guo Mansion to announce the decree.

Zhao Hao put his arms around his neck affectionately: "What are you talking about with me, coming to my territory will make you hungry? Follow me in!"

With that said, the two of them walked shoulder to shoulder and entered the Zhen Guo Mansion.

Back in the lobby, Bai Xiu was training her husband. The black-faced man was squatting on the ground in an orderly manner, letting his wife scold him.

But seeing Eunuch Cao coming, the two returned to normal in an instant. Bai Xiu took a step back, half a body behind Zhao Wudi, looking extremely virtuous.

Zhao Dingbian also put down the books in his hands, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Eunuch Cao!"

Seeing this, Eunuch Cao hurriedly stepped forward to hold his arm, and bowed even lower than Zhao Dingbian: "No way! A servant can't bear the gift of Lord Zhen!"

Zhao Dingbian didn't make things difficult for him, and said with a slight smile: "Why did Eunuch Cao visit the place late at night?"

Eunuch Cao smiled: "Your Majesty, considering today's events, the general and his son must be resentful, so he specially ordered the servants to bring a happy event!"

"Humph!"

The black-faced man snorted in dissatisfaction: "The emperor still knows that he is sorry for us father and son? I, Hao'er, have made such great achievements, but in the end, I didn't even get a single hair. Instead, we father and son ate a plate of fried pork with bamboo shoots. Our faces have been smashed, so what's the use of the emperor seeking compensation afterwards?"

Eunuch Cao asked back, "Then General, are you planning to have this great event?"

The black-faced man quickly shook his head: "Of course I want it! Anyway, I've already let us down, so it's a little bit to make up for it!"

Zhao Hao couldn't help laughing, thinking that this black-faced man could understand it clearly.

But this is also due to the emperor, if other monsters offend him, even if he kowtows to him afterwards, he will not be able to undo it.

After all, the second father of the emperor still needs to give some face.

Eunuch Cao smiled slightly: "Duke Zhen's family listens to the order!"

As soon as the words fell, the four members of the Zhao family knelt down neatly.

Eunuch Cao said in a solemn tone: "The emperor has an order. Today Zhao Hao wrote a poem in front of the palace to promote the prestige of our barren country's literary world. The merits of the present age will benefit thousands of years. Although nonsense is out of etiquette, the merits and demerits cannot be offset. Therefore, a marriage is specially given as a reward. All princesses and princesses in the palace who have not left the court can choose at will, and reply to me within seven days, thank you!"

Zhao Hao: "..."

Bai Xiu: "..."

Zhao Dingbian: "..."

Zhao Wudi: "!!!"

Seeing the silence of the family, Eunuch Cao couldn't help but said, "You still haven't accepted the order?"

Old Zhao's family just woke up like a dream, and Qi Qi said: "I accept the order! Long live, long live, long live!"

The old man let out a long breath, Zhao Hao also relaxed a little, and immediately showed a smug expression.

As we all know, a son-in-law is not allowed to join the army and participate in politics. If you marry a princess, you can just be a rich man who abides by the husband's morals honestly. Although he has no real power, no matter who he is, he will give some face.

Even in Zhao Hao's capacity, no one dared to say anything even if he didn't strictly abide by the husband's morality.

The emperor's move certainly intended to limit the power of the Zhao family, but it must also be accompanied by a reduction in the emperor's vigilance.

Lao Zhao's family has always done their duty and never wanted to make troubles. For the family, it must be a good thing.

Especially Zhao Wudi and Bai Xiu and his wife were so happy that they almost jumped up.

"Hahaha! It's better to be the second father of the emperor. The princess and princess can choose whatever they want. It's too popular!"

The black-faced man couldn't help laughing out loud, the corners of his mouth almost reaching his ears.

Bai Xiu also couldn't help but murmured: "I heard that there are many princesses in the palace who are exceptionally beautiful and intelligent, Hao'er is blessed!"

The dark-faced man hesitated for a while and said: "The princess is the daughter of the second father of the emperor. If Hao'er marries the princess, wouldn't he be inferior?"

Bai Xiu snorted: "What? You still want Hao'er to marry the princess? Among all the princesses, the oldest is the second prince's daughter. She is only eight years old now. Do you have the heart?"

"Too……"

The black-faced man struggled for a while, then patted Zhao Hao on the shoulder and laughed loudly: "It's okay! From now on, we will talk about our own business, I will call you brother, and you will call me father!"

Zhao Hao was silent for a long time, and slowly looked at Eunuch Cao: "Old Cao! Eldest princess, is she also a princess?"

Bai Xiu: "???"

Eunuch Cao: "???"

Zhao Dingbian: "???"

Zhao Wudi: "???"

Still underestimated this kid's ambition.

Being a younger brother can no longer satisfy him, he even wants to be an uncle!

Chapter 18: Tough-mouthed black-faced man

The atmosphere in Zhen Guo Mansion was quiet for a while, before Eunuch Cao said slowly: "Master Hao, the eldest princess... naturally she is also considered a princess."

He didn't say anything later: But now there are only two eldest princesses in the royal family, one is married, and the other has been in seclusion for 30 years, looking for an opportunity to break through to the master realm.

After all, the emperor also wanted a sister who was a grand master.
