After the daughter was treated harshly by her family, everyone knelt down and begged for forgiveness

Chapter 997: Talking All Night

At night, Tong Zhe finished all the work in Bingqing Garden and returned to Prince Dijin's Mansion.

When he passed by his third sister's room, he saw that the candle was still on. He thought that his third sister had forgotten to turn off the light, so he gently pushed open the door.

Sure enough, there was no one in the outer room, and the third sister had already gone to bed in the inner room.

Tong Zhe opened the lampshade and blew out the candle. Suddenly, he heard his third sister's voice asking questions from behind him.

"Second brother, why did you extinguish my lamp?"

Tong Zhe was so frightened that he almost lost his balance.

"Ah ah ah..."

Tong Zhenzhi helped her brother to steady himself in time and helped him sit down.

"Second brother, be careful."

Recalling her deliberately gloomy tone, Tong Zhe complained angrily.

"You scared me so much at night."

Tong Zhenzhi smiled a few times, opened the tinderbox and lit the lamp again.

"Hehe, I'm sorry."

"I went to the toilet and when I came back I saw you walk into the room. I thought my second brother was in a playful mood, so I played with you."

Tong Zhe was still frightened and full of resentment.

"What do you mean by playful? I'm not like you, growing older in vain without losing your childishness."

"I cared about my sister, but ended up being frightened. I am truly the most pitiful brother in the world."

Tong Zhenzhi sat next to her brother.

"Okay, okay, I apologized, didn't I? Stop making such a fuss."

Feeling sorry for his sister and unwilling to blame her too much, Tongzhe turned to care for her.

"Okay, I'll just call it a joke, okay?"

"It's so late, why don't you go to bed?"

"Are you worried and can't sleep?"

Tong Zhenzhi put away her smile and became troubled.

"Well, I am a little worried."

Tongzhe knew the pain and heat and whispered softly.

"What are you worried about?"

"Tell me, I'll help you solve it."

Tong Zhenzhi did not rush to narrate, but asked questions first.

"Let's talk privately, putting aside distinctions for now, okay?"

Hearing something wrong with the words, Tong Zhe's expression suddenly became serious.

"What do you mean?"

"Are you going to talk about the powerful again?"

"We've taught you the rules hundreds of times, but you've listened and listened."

"What's wrong with you?"

Tong Zhenzhi argued.

"Second brother, you have the nerve to say that to me?"

"Didn't you always talk about the powerful behind their backs before?"

"This is what they call, if the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked."

Tongzhe's words are strict and profound, and his words are written in a resounding voice.

"You taught yourself to be bad, so why blame me?"

"I know my limits. No matter what I say, at least it won't cause any trouble. You've never known your limits, so it's inevitable that you'll say something that will cause trouble."

"I've told you so many times that the present time is completely different from the past time. It's incomparable."

"In the old days, no one cared when we went in and out of the market. We just had to be a little cautious."

"Now, we live in Prince Dijin's mansion, and every word and action we say could affect the prince's reputation."

"Different responsibilities require flexible approaches. How can you speak nonsense and implicate His Majesty?"

Tong Zhenzhi was disdainful.

"You are the one who can speak the truth."

"Second brother, please rest early. I'm going to talk to my eldest brother."

Seeing her stand up and want to leave, Tong Zhe hurriedly held her shoulders with both hands.

"What big brother are you looking for? You are not allowed to look for him."

Unable to deal with his third sister, he had no choice but to admit defeat.

"It's a big deal. I don't talk about big principles."

"Tell me, which powerful person are you discussing? I'll have a chat with you."

Tong Zhenzhi spoke in a flurry.

"In my opinion, my brother, a man who is not good at civil or military affairs, who has no strategy, whose power depends on his family, and whose medical skills are only passable, is not worthy of me?"

Tong Zhe was shocked and terrified.

"Tong Zhenzhi, you are so bold!"

"You can discuss the powerful and wealthy, but how dare you ridicule King Di Jin behind his back?!"

"Who taught you to say such unrighteous and disloyal words?"

Tong Zhenzhi caught the mistake and asked back proudly.

"I didn't say that I was referring to King Di Jin."

"How can you make such a judgment, second brother?"

Tong Zhe was stunned.

"Uh...I..."

Tong Zhenzhi smiled contentedly.

"You also think that Prince Di Jin is incompetent and unfit for any important role, right?"

Tong Zhe was at a loss.

"You and I……"

Tong Zhenzhi continued talking in a leisurely tone.

"Now there is a man who is more mature than King Di Jin, more handsome than him, more knowledgeable than him, more skilled in martial arts than him, and more intelligent than him. He holds a position based on his own abilities and is a famous medical practitioner."

"Do you want to know who he is?"

Thinking about being in Prince Di Jin's mansion, Tong Zhe was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"I do not want to know."

"Because, there is no such person."

"There is no one in the world who is better than King Di Jin."

With the support of his father, Tong Zhenzhi is fearless and speaks frankly.

"What you said is loyalty."

"What I said is the truth."

"Second brother, let's have a good chat. Why show your loyalty when there's nothing to do? You're not a minister of King Dijin."

Tongzhe took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face.

"If you talk like this, I dare not speak."

"Mo Ru, go find my eldest brother. He's bold and shameless, unable to distinguish right from wrong, and might even dare to commit treason."

Upon hearing the deep meaning, Tong Zhenzhi became angry.

"Are you scolding Big Brother, or are you making a sarcastic remark about me?"

Tong Zhe refused to admit it.

"I didn't abuse anyone."

He was frightened and felt distressed and exhausted.

"How did King Di Jin provoke you? Why do you have so much dissatisfaction with him?"

Tong Zhenzhi spoke out her true feelings.

"My second brother is very slow."

"I'm not dissatisfied with King Di Jin, but I prefer someone else."

Caught off guard, Tong Zhe forgot his fear for a moment when he heard something new and strange.

"Oh?"

"Is Tong San's daughter tempted by worldly desires? How rare!"

"Tell me quickly, who is your brother-in-law?"

Tong Zhenzhi was hesitant and a little shy.

"What brother-in-law? I haven't even married him yet."

The child's fear was completely replaced by curiosity.

"I'm happy to call it that."

"Tell me quickly, who is he?"

Tong Zhenzhi was very pleased with himself and shook his head.

"Master Xiao An, An Xiaohuan."

The child is confused.

"An Xiaohuan? Never heard of him."

"His surname is An, or is he a relative of Lord An, the Bronze Secretary?"

Tong Zhenzhi replied.

"It is Lord An's son."

Tong Zhe immediately rejected it.

"Isn't that someone in the enemy's camp? I disagree."

"Don't forget, the Emperor instructed you to seduce Prince Dijin and drive a wedge between him and Princess Yuexi."

"You can put your love affairs aside for now. The emperor's order cannot be disobeyed. The important matters are more important. Please do not take it lightly."

Tong Zhenzhi glanced at him.

"Ever since you learned about the emperor's instructions, you have been opposing them, using coaxing, intimidation, soft tactics, and hard tactics to prevent me from taking any action. But now you are actively doing so."

Tongzhe gave him a stern warning.

"In short, I don't agree with you associating with him."

"Little sister cannot disobey my brother's words. You must listen to me."

Tong Zhenzhi took advantage of the situation to refute his words.

"Second brother may be disappointed, but eldest brother has already agreed to this matter."

"I cannot disobey my elder brother. You must obey him."

Tong Zhe was stunned.

"what?"

"Big brother agrees?"

"Did he take the wrong medicine?"

Tong Zhenzhi was extremely happy that her wish came true.

"I heard from him that Princess Yuexi also agrees."
