Chapter 1504: Worrying about the Family

Ye Zifen elegantly picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said with a smile: "In three days, the princess's mansion will hold a grand housewarming banquet. Aunt and Aunt Qi will have to help prepare for the banquet in the next few days. In addition, I will send someone back to the Wang family to inform them."

Ye Zifen cleverly used this opportunity to allow Wang Hong to stay in the princess's mansion naturally.

Wang Hong came back to her senses from her surprise, a smile appeared on her face, and she said softly: "Madam Qi is experienced and knows everything, so why do I need to come here in person? You are always so thoughtful and impeccable."

She understood that Ye Zifen was thinking about Princess Anle, which was also her concern, and this excuse was just right.

Ye Zifen smiled slightly, her eyes firm and confident: "We must always take into account the feelings of all parties. After all, the dignity of the royal family cannot be violated."

Wang Hong nodded in agreement: "You are becoming more and more mature and steady. No wonder you have achieved what you have today. If this matter was handed over to your third sister, I'm afraid she might not be able to do such a good job."

Ye Zifen hugged Wang Hong's arm tightly and said coquettishly, "My third sister needs your care and protection. When I let my third sister marry my third cousin, I took her innocent character into consideration. She is pure and kind, so it's better for her to live under the protection of her family."

Her tone was full of coquettishness, and at the same time revealed her deep gratitude to Wang Hongshi.

At this time, Zhang Gaoyi was discussing current political issues with Ma Fengchun and his wife and Zhang Gaowu.

After hearing Zhang Gaoyi's words, Ma Fengchun couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Won't it be extremely dangerous next?"

Zhang Gaoyi nodded solemnly. "No matter when or where, the change of the throne means blood and fighting. The risks involved are self-evident."

Ma Fengchun frowned, "Can't we just leave the capital?"

Zhang Gaoyi explained helplessly: "Although the emperor said this to Zifen, in fact, he has closely linked me and Zifen together. It can be said that if it weren't for me, Zifen might not be involved in this dispute."

Ma Fengchun suddenly realized, "Yes! Zifen has always been smart and clever, and she doesn't participate in the royal power struggle. The emperor will naturally not embarrass her. Maybe it's really because of you."

Zhang Gaoyi comforted them, "Even if we are in danger, we have already arranged a retreat for everyone. Once things here are dealt with, the caravan will return to the seaside, which is our last safe haven."

Zhang Gaowu asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Brother, if you are in danger at that time, can you also leave the capital and meet us at the seaside?"

Zhang Gaoyi showed a bitter smile on his face and shook his head helplessly: "Don't be silly, brother. No matter whether we can complete the task assigned by the emperor, we can't leave the capital. Sending you to the seaside is to be able to send you directly overseas if there are any problems in the future."

Zhang Gaowu frowned after hearing this and said worriedly, "So, you and Sister Zifen will always be in danger?"

At this moment, he no longer felt how wonderful the capital city was.

Zhang Gaoyi pondered for a moment and replied, "Perhaps the new emperor will be willing to let us leave, but it certainly won't be in the next few years. Do you understand?"

Zhang Gaowu nodded heavily to show his understanding.

Then, Zhang Gaoyi said seriously: "I have another important task for you."

Zhang Gaowu immediately straightened up and asked solemnly, "What is the mission?"

Zhang Gaoyi said firmly: "My parents are currently in the General's Mansion. It is your task to persuade them to return to Lujia Village."

When Zhang Gaowu heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously, and he said with difficulty: "Brother... this task is a bit difficult!"

Ma Fengchun said gloomily, "Are you worried that they will be too attached to the wealth and glory here and won't want to return to Lujia Village?"

Zhang Gaoyi turned around and asked Zhang Gaowu with difficulty: "Do you think they will be willing to go back?"

Zhang Gaowu shook his head without hesitation to express his disapproval.

Then he said frankly: "No, they will never be willing to leave. If I mention this to them, they will just think that I am deceiving them and want to drive them away."

Ma Fengchun's wife smiled and interrupted, "It seems that you two brothers understand your parents' personalities quite well. It's true! Gao Yi, do you want my wife and I to go and persuade them together?"

Zhang Gaoyi nodded apologetically.

Ma Fengchun pondered for a moment and slowly said, "I'm afraid it will be very difficult. They have never experienced such a luxurious life before, and now they are used to it. Naturally, they don't want to leave easily. Even if my husband and I go in person, it will probably be in vain. However, the imperial edict may play a role. You can discuss with Zifen to see if there is a way to get the emperor to issue an order for them to leave."

Zhang Gaoyi sighed helplessly and said, "Your Majesty has always governed the world with filial piety, and would never issue such an imperial decree."

Zhang Gaoyi then added: "Besides, if such an imperial decree is really issued, people in the world will only think that the emperor wants to touch me."

Ma Fengchun frowned and said, "It seems this is a big problem. We must find a way to solve this problem. It would be great if Zifen was here. She has a lot of ideas."

Zhang Gaoyi sighed helplessly, and then said, "There will be a housewarming party at the Princess's residence in three days, and we will send an invitation to the General's residence at that time. Zifen wants the noble ladies to teach my mother a lesson, maybe she will feel ashamed of herself and maybe she will ask to go back to Lujia Village on her own."

Ma Fengchun's wife shook her head firmly and said, "I can't guarantee that she won't leave. You don't know your mother. As long as she can live a rich and prosperous life, she won't think it is a humiliation."

Zhang Gaoyi swallowed his saliva, and the idea that seemed promising just now immediately became impossible.

He would not doubt his aunt's understanding of his mother.

So a housewarming party is not an option, what should we do?

He looked at Zhang Gaowu helplessly and said, "I think you can make a sacrifice and use your charm. Maybe you can get them back to Lujia Village."

Zhang Gaowu looked at Zhang Gaoyi speechlessly, his eyes widened as he said, "What? You want me to deal with my parents? How can this be possible!"

The thought of facing his mother made his scalp tingle, and he simply didn't have the courage or confidence to cope with it.

He knew his mother's temper and character very well, and if he intervened, things would only get worse.

Zhang Gaowu's eyes rolled, and suddenly an idea came to him. He said to Zhang Gaoyi, "Maybe we can find someone else to handle this matter."
