However, she had a new worry, which was her reputation.
She was an unmarried woman. Although she had some status with Prince Zhang now, she was still unmarried. It would not be good for an unmarried woman to travel with a man.
However, she was worried about Prince Zhang, which made her very confused. Should she go to Jiangnan with Prince Zhang or not?
If she didn't go, what if Prince Zhang was in danger in Jiangnan? Moreover, Yu Yu 'er was there. If she went, what about the Zhang family's reputation?
As Zhang Yuyao's personal maid, Xiao Cui naturally understood her thoughts. She patted Zhang Yuyao's shoulder and whispered, "Miss, are you still thinking about going to Jiangnan?"
Zhang Yuyao looked up at Xiao Cui, but she didn't say anything. She just nodded gently.
Xiao Cui pursed her lips. She didn't want to talk about this with her miss, but when she saw her confused face, she couldn't help but say, "Miss, I don't know whether I should say it or not, but I think you should go with Prince Zhang. Please don't blame me."
Although she often joked with Zhang Yuyao, she didn't dare to talk nonsense about this matter.
Zhang Yuyao slowly raised her head and looked at Xiao Cui with some doubts, "Why do you say that?"
Xiao Cui pulled the corner of her clothes and said with some uncertainty, "Miss, I don't know, but I think Prince Zhang is so good and rich. Now he is going to Jiangnan to develop his business. He may settle down in Jiangnan in the future. If you don't seize the opportunity now, it will be too late in the future. Moreover, now the people in Quan 'an know about your relationship with Prince Zhang. If you don't go now, how can you establish yourself in Chang' an in the future?"
She was speaking her mind. In fact, this was also true. Zhang Yuyao and Zhang Feng's relationship was like an unmarried couple, and the people in Quan 'an knew about it. If Zhang Yuyao didn't go to Jiangnan, it wouldn't have any impact. However, if Zhang Feng didn't come back for a long time, what would Zhang Yuyao do? Was she going to remarry? He probably wouldn't even dare to accept her if she remarried, because it was a taboo for women to remarry in this era. Moreover, he might not even dare to accept Zhang Feng's woman. Of course, this was all in the future.
Zhang Yuyao's heart was in a mess. She grabbed Xiao Cui and said nervously, "Xiao Cui, I know what you're saying, but if I go, people will inevitably criticize my family. I want to go, but I'm worried about my parents."
Indeed, when an unmarried woman followed a man to a faraway place, it was easy for people to think of some ambiguous scenes. These scenes would naturally involve the family.
Xiao Cui also knew this deeply. She said with some hesitation, "Miss, if we don't go, what if Prince Zhang is in danger? Besides, Yu Yu 'er is in Jiangnan. I heard that there are many beautiful women in Jiangnan. What if Prince Zhang is bewitched by women? At that time, you won't even have a place to cry. "
This was also the truth. Jiangnan had always been a place filled with beautiful women and talents. Although Xiao Cui was just guessing, what if it was true? She was doing this for the sake of Miss.
Zhang Yuyao nodded. She also knew what Xiao Cui was thinking, but she was hesitant about whether to go to Jiangnan or not.
Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and quickly said, "Xiao Cui, what do you think about discussing it with father?"
This was the only way she could think of now. Since ancient times, when children went out, they would go home to say goodbye to their parents. She was no exception. It was a good opportunity to discuss it with her father.
Xiao Cui nodded. "Miss, you're right. We should discuss it with Master. Maybe he has a way to satisfy both sides. But it should be done as soon as possible. Otherwise, it won't be good if it's late."
Zhang Yuyao nodded slightly and quickly said, "Xiao Cui, go back and tell father about the situation first. At the same time, you can also sound him out."
Xiao Cui nodded and turned to leave.
At the same time, in the imperial study of the palace.
Li Shimin sat on the Dragon Throne with a cigarette in his hand. The smoke filled the entire room, making him look mysterious and serious. "My dear ministers, I plan to reveal my identity to Feng Zi. What do you think?"
When he said this, Wei Zheng and the other ministers frowned. They actually did not agree with Li Shimin revealing his cards. This was because they understood Zhang Feng's personality and talent. Normally, such an expert would not easily become an official. Of course, they did not know what Zhang Feng was thinking. But, to reveal his cards just for the sake of revealing his cards, it was undoubtedly not worth it. What if Zhang Feng was that kind of expert, and once Li Shimin revealed his cards, Zhang Feng would leave? Wouldn't this be the biggest loss to the Tang Dynasty?
They could not afford to lose such a huge gamble.
Thus, Wei Zheng stood up and said with a serious face, "Your Majesty, I feel that now is not the time."
"Old Fart Wei, what do you mean?"
