I am a prince in Zhutian Films

Chapter 375 Zhang Haohao plans to escape from his native country
Coincidentally, the father and son had just returned to the teahouse when they ran into Zhao Paner and Liu Wan who had just finished chatting.

There were still traces of tears on Zhao Paner's face, and it was obvious that she had been crying.

As for Liu Wan, her mood was more complicated.

In fact, after a conversation, Liu Wan's impression of Zhao Pan'er improved a lot. Except for being quite dissatisfied with Zhao Pan'er's identity and holding some hostility between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law towards Zhao Pan'er for "taking away" her son, she was quite satisfied in other aspects.

It can be said that if Zhao Pan'er had not become her daughter-in-law, she would actually admire Zhao Pan'er from the bottom of her heart.

At least in Liu Wan's opinion, if it were her, she probably wouldn't be able to be as independent and self-reliant as Zhao Pan'er.

Looking at Liu Wan's complicated expression, Zhao Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Based on his understanding of Liu Wan, he knew that his mother should have accepted Zhao Paner.

In fact, it was not unexpected.

Liu Wan glared at him and said unhappily, "If she agrees to you, let Xiuyin teach her some rules, so that you won't make a fool of yourself when you get married."

"Thank you, mother. You are the best." Zhao Wei flattered her.

Zhao Heng looked at Zhao Pan'er strangely, then looked at his son who was flattering him, and couldn't help laughing: "Why, from what I hear, she doesn't think highly of you? You are really useless."

"I..." Zhao Wei was really speechless.

Fortunately, Zhao Pan'er gave him a way out: "Your Majesty, I am not worthy of Your Highness."

Zhao Heng smiled kindly and said nothing. He turned to Liu Wan and said, "Now that you have met the person, let's go back to the palace."

"It's a rare trip out of the palace, why don't you take a walk?"

"I'm pissed off by this kid. I'm not interested anymore."

Hearing this, Liu Wan inevitably lectured her son, and then followed Zhao Heng back to the palace.

Zhao Wei did not stay long. He whispered a few words to Zhao Pan'er and then hurriedly chased after her.

Today, when Zhao Heng mentioned the Fengshan ceremony, he did not oppose his later proposal to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun within five years, so he planned to strike while the iron was hot and paint some big pictures for Zhao Heng so that he could turn him into a war faction.

Even if he cannot turn into a pro-war faction, at least he cannot let Zhao Heng hold him back.

Zhao Pan'er was more than happy to see Zhao Wei leave.

Because she really didn't know how to face Zhao Wei now. The sudden attack from Zhao Heng and Liu Wan today was too much of a shock to her, and she also needed time to sort out her feelings with Zhao Wei.

Arriving at the kitchen, Zhao Paner opened her mouth and said, "Sanniang, what do you think I should do?"

Seeing Zhao Pan'er's panic, Sun Sanniang quickly put down her work and asked, "What's wrong? What should I do?"

Zhao Pan'er didn't say anything, but she couldn't help but shed tears.

moved.

It was not until she talked with Liu Wan today that she realized that in addition to the help they knew about, Zhao Wei had also done many things for her in secret.

For example: looking into her father’s old cases.

For example: secretly sending people to protect her, asking the emperor and the queen to agree to their marriage, etc.

Although the Queen Mother did not say it explicitly, Zhao Pan'er knew without thinking that Zhao Wei must have suffered a lot in order to get the Emperor and the Queen Mother to agree to their relationship.

Zhao Pan'er was so moved that she was speechless and just kept crying, which made Sun Sanniang very anxious.

"Pan'er, did those two people bully you? I'm going to settle the score with them."

Seeing Sun Sanniang holding a kitchen knife and about to leave, Zhao Pan'er was startled and quickly held her back: "No, don't be impulsive, those two just now were the emperor and the queen."

"what?!"

Sun Sanniang's voice suddenly rose an octave in surprise, and then she said tremblingly: "The official... the official and the queen? Why... why are they here?"

"They said they came to see me. The emperor and the queen are both very good people." Zhao Pan'er held Sun Sanniang's hand and did not let go. Instead, she threw herself into Sun Sanniang's arms, her tone full of emotion: "Sanniang, you know, the queen talked to me a lot today, and I just realized that His Highness has done a lot for me in secret."

Sun Sanniang was stunned and looked a little unnatural.

Although it was a bit inappropriate to say this, she really had a feeling that Zhao Paner was showing off to her.

Sun Sanniang slightly pushed Zhao Pan'er away, looked at her seriously, and asked, "Then what do you want to do?"

"I don't know. I'm so confused right now."

Sun Sanniang was silent for a moment, then continued to ask, "What is the attitude of the emperor and the queen?"

"The Queen doesn't like me. She said directly that she doesn't want me to marry His Highness, but if I really want to marry, she won't object." Zhao Pan'er said, briefly recalling what happened in the private room before, and said uncertainly: "The Queen didn't say anything. It seems that she doesn't mind my identity. I heard from the Queen that His Highness and the Queen made some kind of deal."

Zhao Pan'er paused and choked up, "Your Highness is very good, but the better he is, the more I feel that I am not worthy of him."

"This...why don't you think about it carefully? I don't have any good suggestions. I'll go study the fruit."

Sun Sanniang wanted Zhao Pan'er to agree, but she also knew the gap between Zhao Pan'er and Zhao Wei, and she knew how difficult life would be for a daughter-in-law who was not liked by her mother-in-law after marriage.

It's not easy for ordinary families, let alone the royal family with strict rules.

Zhao Pan'er actually knew that Sun Sanniang would not be able to give her any advice. She just wanted to find someone to vent her emotions. Now that her emotions had been vented, she slowly calmed down.

He just sat there quietly until the teahouse closed, then he came to his senses and followed Sun Sanniang and Song Yinzhang back home.

The next day, the sun rises.

Zhao Pan'er got up early. She didn't sleep well last night and kept thinking about what happened between her and Zhao Wei.

But after thinking about it for a whole night, she still couldn't make up her mind, so she had to keep herself busy and had no time to think about it.

This resulted in Sun Sanniang and the hired servant Xiao Cui being commanded around by her. Song Yinzhang was also ordered by her to go outside and deliver fruits to those who had helped them.

In Shuangxi Tower, there was a peaceful scene with flowers in full bloom. A group of singing girls were looking at the exquisite fruit cakes sent by Song Yinzhang with envy, and were talking about how the fruits in Banzhaimian's house changed in color every day.

Zhang Haohao sat on the couch and stroked his nails. Although he felt very happy, he said calmly, "Of course. Do you sing the same song with your guests every day? Eat, eat, don't be embarrassed."

The geishas reached out their hands, each taking a piece of the diced fruit from the plate, eating it with great enjoyment, praising it one after another: "It's delicious, Haohao sister, how come you have such a good relationship with Banzhaimian? I had people line up for three days in a row, but in the end I couldn't buy a single box. But you are lucky, people deliver it to you every day."

Zhang Haohao proudly fanned himself and said lazily, "Who can blame me for being so popular? Miss Song, the best pipa player in Jiangnan, and Miss Zhao, the shopkeeper, both call me sister, so I feel embarrassed to refuse them."

A cold snort sounded, Zhang Haohao turned around, only to see Chi Pan walking in from outside the pearl curtain with an unhappy look on his face.

Seeing this, the singing girls immediately exchanged glances and scattered. Zhang Haohao said nonchalantly, "Who are you mad at so early in the morning?"

"Hmph, can't you guess it?" Chi Pan sat aside with his arms folded and sulked, deliberately turning his head away from Zhang Haohao.

Zhang Haohao walked to Chi Pan helplessly and sat down next to him, coaxing him like a child: "Chi Lang, are you bored? If you are bored..."

"I'm obviously furious!" Chi Pan pushed Zhang Haohao away angrily and pointed at the biscuit box angrily: "Let me ask you, you knew that Zhao Pan'er and I were enemies, why did you accept her things?"

Zhang Haohao was shunned by him and became unhappy: "Why can't I accept her things? I hate Mr. Zhang, but you still eat and drink with him at Changqinglou every other day."

Chi Pan choked and said, "I was doing it to take care of my own business. How can it be the same?"

Zhang Haohao rolled his eyes: "I am also doing this for my own business."

Chi Pan said unhappily, "You think a small place like this is a business? Stop it, just follow me, the yanei. As long as I am here, how can you be short of money to spend?"

Zhang Haohao was startled and narrowed his eyes instantly: "Chi Pan, if you have the guts, say it again?"

Chi Pan also realized that his words were a bit too much. He coughed lightly and changed his words, "Well, it is my honor to let Madam Zhang spend my money. Although Shuangxi Building is small, it is also the result of Madam Zhang's hard work."

"That's more like it." Zhang Haohao reluctantly accepted Chi Pan's statement and smiled faintly, but a bitter feeling arose in his heart.

Chi Pan naturally did not notice Zhang Haohao's mood change. He thought that Zhang Haohao was no longer angry and started to act arrogantly again.

"I'm giving in to you, can you please give me some face? Zhao Pan'er and I have a deep hatred, and now you're cooperating with her, where will my face be?"

"What hatred do you have? Is it because you teased Miss Yin Zhang, or because you can't beat her at cuju and dice? If you hate her so much, why did you send Lu Wu to queue up for half a day to buy her fruit the other day?"

Chi Pan was a little embarrassed and said angrily, "I didn't know that the crappy teahouse was opened by her at that time. It was all because of He Si's crappy gift to me. I took a sip and then... I was going to make her pay sooner or later."

Zhang Haohao chuckled: "Do you dare? Madam Zhao has a special relationship with Zhao Changshi of the Prince of Han's Mansion. You told me this, have you forgotten?"

"You...I...I'm putting this here today. If you don't break up with Zhao, I'm not going to be friends with you anymore."

Hearing this, Zhang Haohao was so angry that he stood up.

"It's not good, so who cares? Go away, leave now!"

Zhang Haohao pushed Chi Pan out of the door without explanation and said, "Chi Pan, let me tell you, I, Zhang Haohao, have been in the music school for twenty years, and I hate it most when people threaten me at every turn.

You only know how to give me clothes and jewelry, but do you know what I care about most?

What I care about most is that I will always be the top geisha in Tokyo!
Do you think what Zhao Paner gave me was just a cake?
Humph, you can't even understand this, no wonder she bullied you to the point where you can only hug the God of Land and cry!"

After saying that, she turned and went into the house, slamming the door.

Chi Pan was so shocked that his forehead was covered with ashes. He looked at the singing girls in the dark, and became furious. He turned to Lu Wu and asked, "Who told her about my visit to the land temple? Who?!"

Lü Wu was terrified and betrayed his companion without hesitation: "He, He Si."

"Go find He Si."

When Chi Pan found He Si in the pawnshop under his name, He Si had just received the fruits sent by Song Yinzhang and was enthusiastically praising Zhao Paner to his men.

"This Madam Zhao is really good at dealing with people. Not only does she not bear grudges, she also always remembers to help us brothers. Look, she's sent us some fruit again..." As he was speaking, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong with the expressions of his men. Turning around, he saw Chi Pan standing behind him with a sinister look on his face.

Chi Pan stared at the half-covered fruit box on the table, his eyes almost spitting fire: "Why did she give you such a big gift?"

He Si hesitated: "Because, because my brothers and I helped her a little bit..."

Chi Pan slammed the table, furious: "You help her? Are you mine or hers? She is from the Han Palace, does she need your help?"

He Si was frightened and said with a wronged look on his face: "Of course she is your man, but didn't you say at the inn that she can use us as she pleases? I dare not disobey your orders."

Chi Pan was stunned and pointed at his nose: "Did I say that?"

Everyone nodded in unison, and He Si shouted in anger, "Yanei, you can't be untrustworthy!"

Chi Pan felt his internal organs were burning, and he kicked over the jar next to him. Unexpectedly, there was a stone pillar under the jar. Chi Pan screamed in pain, hugged his foot and fell to the ground, crying out in pain: "Ah! Who the hell is so wicked!"

Several men rushed forward to massage Chi Pan's feet. He Size took advantage of the chaos and shouted, "I will redeem myself for meritorious service. I will go find a doctor."

Having said that, he ran away in a flash.

Chi Pan was angry and hurt, helpless and furious: "Zhao Pan'er, it's all Zhao Pan'er's fault. Just wait, you have been in Tokyo City, and you dare to offend me, Chi Yanei... Ouch, be gentle, be gentle!"

One of the men didn't control the strength of the blow well, causing Chi Pan to scream in pain on the ground.

At the same time, Zhang Haohao was writing invitations in Shuangxi Building.

After the previous quarrel with Chi Pan, she pondered for a long time before suddenly realizing it.

Even though she was the top singing girl in Tokyo, she was still insignificant in Chi Pan's eyes. If she wanted Chi Pan not to look down on her, she still had to have the identity of a good man, and she should also plan to renounce her citizenship.

But Chi Pan couldn't help with the matter of denaturalization.

Don't be fooled by how Chi Pan boasted to her, saying that it was Zhao, the chief steward of Prince Han's palace, who personally asked him for help.

In fact, Zhang Haohao didn’t believe it at all and thought that Zhao Huai’en had at most sent someone to tell Chi Pan.

However, what Zhang Haohao didn't know was that it was Zhao Huai'en who personally told Chi Pan to let Song Yinzhang come to Shuangxi Tower to make a name for himself.

It was a coincidence. Zhao Huai'en was originally planning to send someone to find Zhang Haohao directly that day, but he happened to meet Chi Pan. Thinking of the relationship between Chi Pan and Zhang Haohao, he mentioned it.

But none of this matters. What matters is that Zhang Haohao feels that Chi Pan can't communicate with Zhao Huai'en, and she doesn't dare to go to Prince Han's mansion to ask Zhao Huai'en for help.

But Zhao Paner is different.

At first, she thought that the two were in a relationship, but this guess was denied by Zhao Paner.

Zhao Pan'er did not elaborate on her relationship with Zhao Huai'en, but Zhang Haohao discovered a problem.

They are Zhao Paner and Zhao Huai’en, both with the surname Zhao.

In other words, the two are most likely relatives.

Even though they are distant relatives, Zhao Pan'er is much more important than Chi Pan, and she is her only chance to escape citizenship at present.

After writing the invitation, Zhang Haohao called the servant.

"Send this invitation to the half-covered shopkeeper, Madam Zhao."
