Chapter 974 Turning Point

Zhao Tianlong didn't get angry when he heard someone blocking him, but frowned tightly. He couldn't be more familiar with this voice.

I saw a beautiful woman with long red hair appearing at the gate of Zhengde Hall, but the guards outside the gate did not stop the beauty in any way.

"Father, why did you call Li Zhenbang here alone? You don't want to reward him secretly, do you? You are really partial!" the beauty pouted and yelled in dissatisfaction.

"Wen Ji, why did you come here? This is Zhengde Hall, a place where major national affairs are discussed. You are not fooling around!" Although Zhao Tianlong blamed her, his tone was clearly coddled.

It turned out that this red long-haired beauty was none other than Zhao Tianlong's only daughter, Zhao Wenji who had married Li Zhenbang's father Li Qishan.

Zhao Tianlong has many sons, but Zhao Wenji is the only daughter, and Zhao Wenji's mother passed away early, so Zhao Wenji is considered to be a favorite of thousands of people.

Although Zhao Wenji has married Li Qishan, in Zhao Tianlong's heart, she is still his daughter.

If Zhao Tianlong still has some family affection for anyone, it is estimated that there is only this daughter, so he allows Zhao Wenji to come to the palace to see him at any time, but the last thing he wants to see now is his daughter.

"I heard that Li Zhenbang sneaked here to mess around, so I'm here to teach this little bastard a lesson. It's not easy to go home and stay with us at home, but he sneaked to the Zhengde Hall early in the morning!" Zhao Wenji said As he spoke, he walked to Li Zhenbang's side.

"Do you know what this place is for? This is to discuss national affairs. I dare not come easily, you little bastard. If you want a title or no title, you want an official position or no official position. What are you doing here? Do you still want yours? Head off?" Zhao Wenji became more and more angry as she spoke, she reached out and hit Li Zhenbang's head.

"Look at how I will deal with you when I go back! I have to open your ass!" After beating Li Zhenbang, Zhao Wenji obviously didn't relieve her anger. She simply grabbed Li Zhenbang's ear, and then pulled Li Zhenbang's ear towards the hall go outside.

Although none of the civil and military officials in the main hall spoke, they all looked at Zhao Tianlong secretly.

Everyone knows that Zhao Wenji's actions are against the ancestral system, but Zhao Wenji is a member of the royal family after all, even if she is married, not to mention she is Zhao Tianlong's favorite daughter.

Everyone can see that Zhao Tianlong is angry now, who doesn't want to get angry? So they all chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

All the performances of civil and military officials were reflected in Zhao Tianlong's eyes,

Don't look at the silence of all civil and military officials, but it is more uncomfortable than talking. He is equivalent to being defeated by the silence of all civil and military officials.

Zhao Wenji has no official title, and she is married as a woman. Now she can only be regarded as a commoner, at most an official family member.

It is too inappropriate for a commoner official and his family to riot in the Zhengde Hall for the ridiculous reason of teaching the children.

If it was said that Zhao Tianlong called Li Zhenbang just to chat, or he was reprimanded out of his status as an elder, Zhao Wenji's doing so made sense, and everyone turned a blind eye.

But now this matter has risen to the national level, it is not a personal matter, let alone a family matter, so it must not be confused. Otherwise, it will damage Zhao Tianlong's majesty, and it will definitely not be a good thing to govern the officials, especially now when there are internal and external troubles.

"Wen Ji, stop!" Zhao Tianlong took a deep breath and said softly.

Although the sound of standing still was very soft, it was clearly transmitted to Zhao Wenji's ears.

Zhao Wenji's body shook, then stopped, then let go of Li Zhenbang, turned around and looked at Zhao Tianlong.

In fact, she can also pretend that she didn't hear it and continue walking, but she can't do that. She knew Zhao Tianlong's temper too well. If she dared to continue walking, Zhao Tianlong would dare to have someone stop her. At that time, not only will Li Zhenbang not be saved, but the relationship between their father and daughter may also come to an end.

Zhao Wenji is actually very clear about the royal family's frivolity and lack of kindness, and it is because of this that she cherishes the father-daughter friendship with Zhao Tianlong even more.

"Father, no matter what mistakes Zhenbang made, he is your grandson after all. The Zhengde Hall is not a place to discuss family affairs. Let's go home and talk about anything!" Zhao Wenji looked at Zhao Tianlong with pleading eyes.

Zhao Tianlong's heart trembled for a moment. In his impression, Zhao Wenji had begged him for one thing since childhood, and this was the second time.

The first time was when Zhao Wenji's mother was seriously ill, Zhao Wenji begged him to save her mother, but it wasn't that he didn't want to save her mother, but he really couldn't.

He had tried everything at that time, not only invited Yang Bing, a water-type holy magister, but even tried his best to invite a wood-type holy magister and a bishop of the Holy See.

It's a pity that Zhao Wenji's mother's illness is no longer something human can do. Even the water-type and wood-type curses can only delay, not save. In the end, he can only watch Zhao Wenji's mother die but there is nothing he can do.

Although Zhao Wenji's mother was not rescued, Zhao Wenji saw what he did, so Zhao Wenji didn't hold grudges against him, but her relationship with him became deeper.

It's just that since then, Zhao Wenji has changed, the smile on her face has become less, she is no longer as lively as before, and has become more and more quiet. He didn't know whether this was good or bad, but it seemed that Zhao Wenji had grown up.

Until later when she was in school, Zhao Wenji met Li Zhenbang's father, Li Qishan, and from then on, Zhao Wenji gradually became cheerful again.

Zhao Wenji finally married Li Qishan. Although there were some political factors, the main reason was because Zhao Wenji liked to be with Li Qishan.

"Wen Ji...Some things are not as simple as you imagine." Zhao Tianlong looked at Zhao Wenji lovingly.

"What's not easy? Can't we talk about it in private? Why do we have to put it here in front of so many people? I've already lost Ruoyue, and I can't lose Zhenbang again!" Zhao Wenji Protecting Li Zhenbang behind him, he was already a little hoarse.

Hearing Zhao Wenji talk about Li Ruoyue, Zhao Tianlong's body froze. Li Ruoyue was too similar to Zhao Wenji when she was a child. To be precise, she was like Zhao Wenji who had not lost her mother.

Li Ruoxing is more like Zhao Wenji after losing her mother, she is quiet and polite, no matter what happens, she always looks calm.

"Wen Ji, Ruoyue will be fine, I will definitely bring Ruoyue back!" Zhao Tianlong clenched his fists tightly, his voice was calm and solemn, giving people a feeling of peace of mind.

"Father, Zhenbang has suffered a lot. From a five-line magician to a useless summoned beast mage for no reason, do you know what he has experienced? He finally gained some self-protection capital, Now you want him to abolish his martial arts, how can you bear it?" Zhao Wenji had tears in her eyes, and the circles around her eyes were red.

"Wenji..."

"Father!"

"Hey! Wen Ji, I'm doing this for the good of Zhenbang! Zhenbang owns undead monsters, and undead are evil. No one knows if there will be a backlash in the future. Once backlash, the consequences will be terrible. It's unimaginable, I'm also thinking of Li Zhenbang!" Zhao Tianlong sighed.

"But no matter what, it's almost an eighth-level monster. How difficult it is for a summoned beast mage to own an eighth-level contracted summoned beast! The honorary name of the summoned beast mage from the Magicians Guild What the elder owns is only an eighth-order monster!" Hearing Zhao Tianlong's words softened, Zhao Wenji's tone softened too.

In any case, that was her father, her beloved biological father on the one hand, and Li Zhenbang whom she treated as her own child on the other. It was not easy for her to persist until now.

"Wen Ji, I promise you that as long as Li Zhenbang hands over the ghost, I will give him a pet egg of a seventh-level monster, and I will help him grow this infant seventh-level monster into an adult monster in a short time. Are you satisfied with this?" Zhao Tianlong finally took a step back.

The material resources needed to cultivate a seventh-level juvenile monster into an adult monster are not a small sum. But compared with military expenditure, it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket.

The reason why Zhao Tianlong has been unwilling to let go is because if he did so, it would be tantamount to bowing his head to the Red Maple Leaf family. As the king of a country, this is absolutely unacceptable.

The reason why he gave Li Zhanfeng a few hundred million more was actually to compensate Li Zhenbang in a disguised form, but this matter can be done, but words cannot be said.

Now for the sake of his only daughter, Zhao Tianlong reluctantly lowered his haughty head once. If it wasn't for Zhao Wenji, he would never have done so.

"Father... Thank you!" Zhao Wenji bowed deeply to Zhao Tianlong before standing up. She knew that this was Zhao Tianlong's biggest concession.

"Auntie, thank you, but I won't hand over the ghost, even if you give me a ninth-level monster as a contracted summoned beast, I won't exchange it." Li Zhenbang looked at Zhao Wenji firmly.

"Why? It's an undead creature after all. No one knows if it will hurt you in the future. Giving up now will do you no harm. Don't be fooled at this time!" Zhao Wenji's eyes widened. , looking at Li Zhenbang in disbelief.

"Big Mom, it's true that the ghost is an undead creature, but it's not its fault. There are good and evil people, and there are also good and bad undead creatures. I admit that many undead creatures are evil, but it doesn't mean that All undead creatures are evil."

"Ghost has no way to determine its origin, but it can determine its future!"
