When Zhao Ce returned to the Green Bamboo Court, it was already a little late.
Seeing that there was no movement in Nangong Pushe's room, Zhao Ce called over Sweet Potato and asked,""Where's White Fox's face?"
"She's still in the Tide-listening Pavilion and hasn't returned yet," replied Sweet Potato.”
Zhao Ce sighed." D * mn, this White Fox's face is too hardworking. Is she forgetting to eat and sleep? Is she planning to stay in Tide-listening Pavilion?"”
"It looks like it," said Sweet Potato.”
"The people from the Imperial Residence didn't chase White Fox's face out of Tide-listening Pavilion?" asked Zhao Ce.”
"No." Sweet Potato shook his head and said.”
Zhao Ce raised his eyebrows in surprise.
In Zhao Ce's opinion, Tide-listening Pavilion was not a place that outsiders could enter casually.
Even though Nangong Pushe was Zhao Ce's good friend, he couldn't stay in Tide-listening Pavilion forever.
Nangong Pushe was already giving Zhao Ce a lot of face by making a trip to Tide-listening Pavilion.
Zhao Ce never thought that Nangong Pushe would be able to stay in Tide-listening Pavilion for a long time.
"Xu Xiao is really giving me face!" Zhao Ce said thoughtfully.”
Xu Xiao was the head of the Northern Liang Mansion.
For Nangong Pushe to be able to stay in Tide-listening Pavilion for a long time, he must have obtained Xu Xiao's permission.
Nangong Pushe was Zhao Ce's friend.
This indirectly showed that Xu Xiao gave Zhao Ce a lot of face.
Zhao Ce was the kind of person who treated others the way they treated him.
"I'll remember Xu Xiao's intentions.”
After saying this in his heart, Zhao Ce said to the sweet potato,"There's nothing else. Go back and rest!”
"Alright."
Then, Zhao Ce and Sweet Potato went back to their rooms to rest.
……
It was night.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the galaxy was brilliant.
On the second floor of the Tide-listening Pavilion.
Xu Xiao and Li Yishan sat opposite each other.
The two of them chatted while playing chess.
"After investigation, the white fox face that Zhao Ce brought is fine. You can rest assured and let her stay in Tide-listening Pavilion.”
Xu Xiao slowly said,"I'm doing this to help Zhao Ce sell a favor and give him enough face."”
Li Yishan nodded and praised,""There's no problem with your highness doing this. Zhao Ce deserves our friendly treatment.”
"Yi Shan, have you seen Zhao Ce?" Xu Xiao asked.”
"Zhao Ce came to the Tide-listening Pavilion today. Feng Nian asked me to meet him, but I didn't."”
"Why not?" Xu Xiao asked doubtfully.”
"I know that Zhao Ce is an extraordinary person even if I don't see him," Li Yishan said with a smile.”
"Before this, everyone thought that Zhao Ce was the most useless prince in the court.”
"If Wei Xiong hadn't married him, we wouldn't have known that he was so extraordinary.”
"In addition, the fact that he was able to become the youngest grandmaster in the world is enough to show that he has a lot of luck.”
"If my deductions are correct, Zhao Ce should be the person with the greatest luck in the Zhao Imperial Family.”
"Zhao Ce has the most luck?" Xu Xiao was slightly surprised. Would he have a chance to sit on the dragon throne in the future?”
"As the One Chosen by Heaven, Zhao Ce's chance of sitting on the Dragon Throne is indeed very high," said Li Yishan.”
Xu Xiao knew that Li Yishan's judgment would not be wrong.
"I didn't expect my son-in-law to be a chosen one!" he lamented.”
Immediately after, Xu Xiao said thoughtfully,"Yi Shan, should we help Zhao Ce and push him to the throne?”
"This is what I think. After we build a good relationship with Zhao Ce and help him ascend the throne, the relationship between our Xu family and the Imperial Court will become better.”
"Your Highness, your idea is very good, but this matter is very difficult to implement in practice. It requires painstaking efforts."”
"In addition, we still need to confirm other things.”
"Firstly, does Zhao Ce want to fight for the throne?”
"Secondly, does Feng Nian have any thoughts about the throne?”
Hearing Li Yishan's last sentence, Xu Xiao suddenly stopped his actions.
He raised his eyes and shifted his gaze from the chessboard to Li Yishan.
Xu Xiao's tone was slightly solemn as he said,"Yi Shan, do you think Feng Nian has any thoughts about the throne?”
Li Yishan also stopped what he was doing and looked up at Xu Xiao.
"I didn't talk to Feng Nian about this.”
"But I know that Fengnian has a different way of thinking from you when it comes to the Zhao Imperial Court.”
No one knows his son better than his father.
Xu Xiao actually knew that Xu Fengnian had many different thoughts from him.
"Feng Nian indeed has many different thoughts from me," Xu Xiao said softly."Perhaps it's because we're in different positions.”
"When he takes over my position in the future, his thoughts might be closer to mine.”
"It's possible." Li Yishan nodded.”
"Yi Shan, I want to know what you think?" Xu Xiao asked seriously.”
"Do you want Feng Nian to rule Northern Liang or do you want him to rule the territory of a country?”
Li Yishan seemed to have thought of these questions long ago. He answered without hesitation.
"Whether it is taking over Northern Liang or seizing the entire Li Country, I will pave the way for Feng Nian.”
"As for the choice, I will not interfere. I will let Feng Nian decide for himself.”
He didn't know if it was because people tended to be sentimental when they were old, but after learning about Li Yishan's thoughts, Xu Xiao was very touched.
He said from the bottom of his heart,"Yi Shan, your painstaking efforts for Feng Nian make me feel ashamed of my inferiority as a father."”
Li Yishan waved his hand and said calmly,""I'm Feng Nian's master, so it's only natural.”
Xu Xiao nodded and said,"Since Yi Shan is paving the way for Feng Nian, then I won't influence his thoughts. Everything will be decided by him.”
"No matter what Fengnian chooses, I will support him wholeheartedly.”
Li Yishan nodded approvingly.
"Yishan, what about Zhao Ce?" Xu Xiao asked.”
"Your Highness, you can go and understand Zhao Ce's thoughts first," said Li Yishan.”
"Alright." Xu Xiao nodded.
"Yishan, let's continue playing chess."
"Yes."
Xu Xiao and Li Yishan continued to place their pieces.
As they played, Li Yishan suddenly said,""Your Highness, at night, I accidentally took a glance at that White Fox's face and realized that she was also an extraordinary talent.”
"What do you mean?" Xu Xiao asked curiously.”
"That White Fox's martial arts fate is very prosperous," Li Yishan said slowly.”
"If he stays in the Tide-listening Pavilion for ten years, he will have a chance to become the number one martial artist in the world.”
Xu Xiao didn't expect Li Yishan to have such a high evaluation of Nangong Pushe, and he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"I didn't expect that White Fox's face to be that kind of martial arts child.”
" Your Highness," Li Yishan suggested," we can go with the flow and give that White Fox face this good fortune. From there, we can befriend her and use her in the future."”
Xu Xiao nodded and said," Alright, I'll listen to you. I'll allow that white fox face to stay in Tide-listening Pavilion to cultivate."”
