Bab 859: Chapter 859: Teasing the Son to Relieve Stress

Zhulan waited for Lady Song and the maids to leave before she spoke, "You've heard about the matters at Zhang Jinghong's residence, haven't you?"

Zhou Shuren replied, "Yes, I have. Everyone is watching Zhang Jinghong closely now!"

Zhulan continued to speak of Yao Xin's matter, "Yao Wenqi acted swiftly, finalizing the adoption as soon as it was mentioned."

"I don't see it that way. Yao Wenqi made a move against Zhang Jinghong; he must have been prepared. The adoption was likely finalized long ago, but it was only announced today."

Zhulan scoffed, "He doesn't dare make any major moves now. Seven or eight years ago, he had the audacity to burn bridges, but now too many of his ties have been severed, and the Emperor has him trapped in the Hou Residence."

Just waiting for the moment to catch all in one fell swoop!
