After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 260 Zhang Tian is not a member of the Zhang family.

Before the old patriarch Zhang could come up with a decision, he suddenly saw the Prefect of the Capital Prefecture come over and say to him politely, "Oh, sir, congratulations!"

Congratulations?

The old patriarch frowned.

Congratulations for what?
Congratulations on his imprisonment, becoming a laughing stock among the powerful and wealthy in Beijing.
snort!
Is this to congratulate him, or to make fun of him?
The old patriarch Zhang showed no kindness whatsoever to the Prefect of Jingzhao.

The Prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture didn't care and just kept offering his congratulations.

Patriarch Zhang: ...

"I have no idea what brings you so much joy? It's enough to make the Prefect come all this way!" He sneered, with a hint of sarcasm.

The Prefect of Jingzhao then said with a smile, "Your Excellency, you will know once you go and see for yourself."

He sent someone to the backyard of the Jingzhao Prefecture, a place he usually used to entertain guests.

The old patriarch Zhang followed with a grim expression.

He originally thought that the Prefect of Jingzhao wanted to take advantage of him to extort benefits, so he took the opportunity to make trouble and invited his whole family to the Jingzhao Prefecture.

At this moment, the fox's tail was finally revealed.

He sneered, waiting for the Jingzhao Prefecture to name the price.

He had been accustomed to such methods for many years in the court.

I never imagined that I would have my eyes pecked out by an eagle.

As Patriarch Zhang was thinking this, he looked up and saw someone unexpected appear before him.

Su Wenheng?
"you……"

Su Wenheng said calmly, "Patriarch Zhang seems quite surprised to see me?"

Patriarch Zhang was almost about to nod in agreement.

Suddenly remembering something, she regained her composure, forcefully put on a stern face, and pretended to be indifferent.

"Patriarch Zhang is as dishonest as ever."

Su Wenheng's words had a double meaning.

Back then, Su Xianyun's lifespan was stolen because she attended a banquet at the Zhang family's residence, leaving her in a coma for many years. However, due to a lack of evidence, the Zhang family members were extremely cunning and eloquent, and the An family members stepped forward to take responsibility, allowing her to escape punishment.

"What do you mean by that, Lord Su?"

The old patriarch Zhang smiled faintly, trying his best to remain calm: "I don't seem to have offended Lord Su in any way, have I? Why is Lord Su always so hostile towards me, and why does he have such a deep misunderstanding?"

"Zhang Tian isn't even a member of the Zhang family, is he?"

Su Wenheng was too lazy to argue with people and directly stated his purpose.

"I advise Patriarch Zhang to stop being so stubborn and causing so much harm!"

"Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish; be careful, one day retribution will come upon you!"

The old patriarch's face immediately turned ugly.

"What do you mean?"

At first, he was more panicked, wondering if Su Wenheng knew something.

The old patriarch was so nervous that he didn't dare to say a word.

They were afraid that someone would notice something.

"Does Patriarch Zhang really believe that bad bamboo can produce good bamboo shoots?"

Su Wenheng sneered and looked the old patriarch of the Zhang family up and down.

He looked down on it with obvious disdain: "Like begets like, and a mouse's child knows how to dig a hole. When it comes to studying, it depends on talent and luck."

"Those who can become the top scholar in the imperial examination are all exceptional individuals, one in ten thousand, who are good at studying, love studying, and understand the books!"

"Does Patriarch Zhang perhaps think that your Zhang family, full of absurd and ignorant people, could possibly produce a top scholar, a reincarnation of the God of Literature?"

The old patriarch Zhang was about to retort angrily when he suddenly pursed his lips tightly.

Wait a minute?
What does that mean?

Hearing Su Wenheng's words, it didn't seem like he was being insulted at all.

But somehow it also sounds like it's insulting him...
