Chapter 1213: Planning for Him
Editor: Henyee Translations
Presumably, they also held him in contempt due to his being considered an eyesore?
Even after his departure, he continued to dispatch individuals to monitor the Zhao Family closely.
He possessed an encyclopedic knowledge of significant events within the Zhao Family that transpired over the past three years.
Following the conclusion of his mourning period, he seized the opportunity of his father’s extended absence to return. Subsequently, he casually announced his intention to embark on a journey.
His initial stop was Huzhou, followed by Hangzhou, where his primary objective was to assume responsibility for and assess the properties acquired by his mother on his behalf.
His mother was undeniably capable. She had entrusted her family with utmost loyalty and expertly managed these properties.
In addition to her early purchases, she had later acquired 10,000 mu of land on the outskirts of Hangzhou City, along with numerous valuable antiques and jewelry.
This substantial estate secured by his mother would enable them to live a prosperous and content life without needing any assistance from the Zhao Family!
Zhao Shu’s heart was overwhelmed with sorrow, and tears welled up uncontrollably.
How he longed for his mother’s presence!
He would willingly relinquish all ties to the Zhao Family in exchange for his mother’s well-being. Regrettably, this remained a far-fetched and unattainable dream.
His mother was no longer among the living, having passed into the realm of the departed. The past and future were forever separated from the present, and their mother-son bond had been irrevocably severed.
He harbored an intense loathing for Zhao Mu and Ms. Qin.
Even if his mother had indeed met with an unfortunate accident, he could not forgive the anguish inflicted upon her by Zhao Mu and Ms. Qin.
In his eyes, they were nothing short of murderers!
Upon what grounds did his mother meet such a suspicious and abrupt demise, enduring untold suffering while still alive, while these two culprits led a life of untroubled opulence?
It would have been acceptable if his mother were still alive, but with her gone, he felt an unshakable determination to seek justice on her behalf!
For the sole purpose of avenging his mother!
Those two individuals deserved to face the consequences of their actions.
Once Zhao Shu shared this information with his trusted relatives, Uncle Qing and Aunt Qing, who had been part of Madam née Zheng’s dowry, readily concurred.
Yet, Zhao Shu was physically frail, and Zhao Mu held the position of his birth father. His chances of prevailing against Zhao Mu were exceedingly slim.
If he were branded as unfilial due to this endeavor, even if he could clear his mother’s name of this wrongdoing, it would still feel inadequate. His mother’s spirit in Heaven would not truly find solace.
That’s why he needed to find a formidable ally, a powerful supporter who could intimidate his father, without putting him in a perilous situation of “replacing one danger with another.”
After deliberation, he brought Uncle Qing, Aunt Qing, and the others to the capital to explore their options.
Initially, they considered ingratiating themselves with a prominent aristocrat.
Indeed, for families like the Zhao’s, influential officials were entities capable of overwhelming them. If willing, they could certainly exert authority over Zhao Mu and Ms. Qin.

However, despite residing in the capital for over half a year, they struggled to identify a suitable aristocratic patron.
It’s important to note that the Zhao Family was a merchant clan based in Jiangnan, with limited ties to the capital. They were worlds apart from the influential families in the capital.
Without someone to pull strings, establishing connections with a prominent capital-based aristocratic family proved to be no easy task.
Certainly, if Zhao Shu merely desired to be a spendthrift, reveling in extravagant dinners and indulging in the company of companions of questionable reputation, it would indeed be a straightforward pursuit.
As long as he frequented upscale eateries and establishments of ill repute, he would inevitably cross paths with wastrels. And so long as he was willing to open his purse, these wastrels would readily welcome him as a friend.
