However, Zhong Jinpeng is not in the mood to give his illegitimate daughter fatherly love now, he is a successful man, and his success is not accidental, he knows the situation very well. Otherwise, he wouldn't have used the money to send Zhang Errou to kill the child and never come back, and he wouldn't have raised it in Steward Zhang's name, and letting her be Star Swirl's companion was already the best arrangement he could give her. If Star Swirl hadn't been so ignorant of the truth and wanted to change the reason why the stallion would have saved the beauty in the future, she would have been carrying Zhang Yuexi with her as in the original book, and she would have concealed the truth in the same way as Star Swirl had handled it alone, and Zhong Jinpeng, who didn't know why, would naturally not object to Star Swirl's kindness to Zhang Yuexi.

Unfortunately, it's different now. Not to mention that Zhong Jinpeng really loves Elise, on the one hand, he is just an illegitimate daughter and a subordinate family, and on the other hand, there are so many members of the whole family, the stability of the entire Zhong family, the Zhong-von der Leth marriage and political alliance, it is people who really favor the latter.

Star Swirl is about to erase the gray area where Zhang Yuexi can exploit loopholes, she has no interest in abusing her illegitimate daughter or attacking the junior family, but the illegitimate daughter doesn't want to borrow her east wind.

Star Swirl sighed, "I regret your decision, Duke. Next, the next topic, the three members of the Zhang family are very key figures in the incident, and the question of their stay is very realistic, and your choice of handling method is: a. keep the status quo; b. let them leave the manor castle and be barred from re-entering for life. ”

Elise: "b. Don't let me see them again, and if any of them enter the manor, I'll sue me for trespassing as the owner. I also declare that no one in the Zhang family should come to pester me, there is nothing to compromise in principle when this kind of thing happens, and it is useless to kidnap me with soft, hard, and moral. I only have one word: even if Zhang Yuexi dies, die farther, don't die on my land, disgusting me. ”

Mom, you're ruthless!

Star Swirl said, "Duchess, that's a lot of words......"

Elise looked at her daughter with beautiful ice-blue eyes and asked, "Really?"

Star Swirl wisely chooses to open her eyes and say nonsense, "Uh...... It seems to be one word. So, what about the opinion of Mr. Duke?"

Zhong Jinpeng took a deep breath and said, "B." ”

Star Swirl said, "Duke, do you want to think about it again, the Zhang family is quite pitiful, they have been in the manor for so long, they have feelings, there is no merit and hard work, and you see how pitiful Zhang Yuexi is, how she longs to stay here and share her family with you." Duke, one yard to one yard, maybe you feel guilty about the duchess now that you decided to blindly obey the duchess so hastily, but you can fight for it, and use all the means you can think of to make the duchess give in. For example, you can ignore the fact that the duchess is equal to you in status and has the property rights of the estate, and point to her nose and say, 'You are not virtuous, jealous, vicious and intolerant, you will kill the Zhang family, and you will kill your own flesh and blood'...... Hey, I can imagine that the Duchess is too cruel, and the Zhang family is too pitiful, so why can't she complain about these people who have no relatives, no causes, and no enmity with the Duchess? Why can't the Duchess treat a woman who has slept with her husband like a brother's own family? Duke, I am you, and I will regret marrying such an unvirtuous woman when I think about it?"

The more Zhang Yuexi listened, the more she felt the coldness to the bone, and Steward Zhang and Mrs. Zhang became more and more afraid, especially Mrs. Zhang, who regretted that she and her husband talked about Zhang Yuexi's life experience before she heard her. She should remember the cruel words of the Duke sixteen years ago, and she should not be more greedy because of the benefits she has received in the past sixteen years.

Zhong Jinpeng was a little angry, and said, "Star Swirl, have you finished talking about it? What the hell do you want to do? Do you need you to tell me when I make a decision? Why do you have to pull out so much? What is going on, I don't know more than you?"

Star Swirl said, "Well, I'm not qualified to tell you how. The attitude of the manor and family shared by both parties towards this matter is very consistent with the male and female hosts, and it seems that both parties are still very sincere in maintaining the marriage. Well, we will move on to the next stage. Regarding the degree to which the duke handles the relationship with Zhang Yuexi and the Zhang family in his private name, let's discuss it again, of course, at this stage, the duchess is just expressing her attitude, but the decision is up to the duke. 1. Does the Duchess object to the Duke's recognition of Zhang Yuexi's father and daughter in his private name?"

"I'm not against that. ”

"Zhang Yuexi did not become the third lady of the manor in the last link, so she will not be funded at the level of the principality and the manor. So, do you object to the duke's private funding of Zhang Yuexi in the name of his own?"

"I have no objection to the Duke supporting an illegitimate daughter up to half of his personal salary, provided that the honour and property shared by the husband and wife are not moved. ”

"What is your opinion on how often the duke visits Zhang Yuexi?"

"He and I have four children in total, and with Zhang Yuexi, he has five children, and I want him to visit his illegitimate daughter no more than one-fifth of the total number of visits to each of his children. Of course, at this point, I'm just suggesting. He didn't have many opportunities to meet his children, so he always had to take into account everyone's feelings, and he couldn't let the children think that they were inferior to their illegitimate daughters in their father's mind. ”

Star Swirl sighed and said, "Duchess, your general opinion is not to object to their father and daughter recognizing each other in private, but you must not touch the name of the Chung-von der Leyen family on any occasion, right?"

"Yes, unless the Duke insists on divorcing me because he intends to form the Chung-Chang estate. Otherwise, this basic principle is the basis for my marriage, marriage, and affection with him. Without basic principles, my relationship with him would naturally fall apart. ”

Star Swirl looked at Zhong Jinpeng, "Duke, Duchess has made the basic principle clear: your relationship with Zhang Yuexi is your personal matter, and has nothing to do with the family that you all now have and want to maintain. So, what about your decision?"

"I have no objection. My private affairs, I will take care of them outside the family. ”

"Good. Well, there is a deeper issue that is more sensitive and realistic. I, my second brother, and my eldest sister are already earls anyway, and we have already divided our property and take care of it ourselves. However, the eldest brother is a son, and he will have the right to inherit most of the property and power of the duchy and the estate, in addition to his own existing property. Although it is stated that Zhang Yuexi has nothing to do with these, according to secular law, illegitimate children have a certain inheritance right on the basis of half of the joint property of the husband and wife. So, in the future, Zhang Yuexi has the right to use secular law to challenge the rights and interests of the eldest brother, and will the duke decide to let Zhang Yuexi retain the ability to threaten the family property that the eldest brother's family will inherit? If the duke does not have a will, Zhang Yuexi's identity can legally have the opportunity to get less than a quarter of the property that the eldest brother will inherit in the future. ”

And Elise was also surprised, in this world, only her daughter is her mother's intimate little padded jacket, she has not thought about this problem deeply, her daughter wants to strangle the threat of illegitimate daughters to the family and family in the cradle. The daughter is ruthless enough, the pit so far away has been dug up, waiting to bury people in minutes. This "fair" negotiation dissipated most of Elise's frustration over the past few days.

Zhong Jinpeng frowned and said, "This is too far, right?"

Star Swirl smiled and said, "It's a bit far, even if the Duke makes a will, there will be too many things in the past two hundred years." However, this question will not be avoided by the eldest brother in the future, and the duke must also know it. Of course, I personally suggest that Miss Zhang Yuexi can be a filial daughter in the next 200 years, and be filial to her father, so that after more than 200 years, her father will never have the eldest brother to inherit half of his property rights. ”

Zhang Yuexi's current face is not enough to describe the miserable whiteness, Zhong Xingxuan, she is ruthless enough, and she is fast enough. Before she had time to tell her thoughts about her admiration, her miserable life, and her natural closeness to the Zhong family, she blocked her most hopeful road. This is the way to kill her.

Zhong Xingxuan's purple eyes looked at Zhang Yuexi and said, "I am presiding over this frank exchange, and all the terms you have agreed on will also apply to me." Zhang Yuexi and I have nothing to do with each other except that we are both duke's daughters, and we do not intend to develop into close sisters and friends. Don't say that Zhang Yuexi has any sisterly affection for me, that's really not, I also said, 'No need, thank you, I want my sister's mother to give birth to me again, I don't need you to do it for me.' 'The life of our manor will continue, maybe not only the duchess's heart is wounded, but the duke's heart is inevitably hurt by this exchange. However, Duke, when you pity Zhang Yuexi and feel that we have bullied her, please understand that the Duchess and I have not done anything, we are just stating: Your illegitimate daughter has nothing to do with us, so let her be. ”

Zhang Yuexi couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted: "Zhong Xingxuan! Why are you doing this? I saved you? Are you not grateful at all? I just want my family, is this too much? I am also a girl full of longing for family affection! How can you be so ruthless?"

Zhong Xingxuan was stunned, and glanced at Zhang Yuexi, who was covering her ribs and wanted to pounce, but Steward Zhang hurriedly grabbed her.

Star Swirl gestured and said, "Miss Zhang, don't waste your energy on me. Even if I die unexpectedly, I will determine my mother as the first heir to the property, my eldest brother, second brother, and eldest sister, the third I will determine my nephews, nieces, and nephews, and the fourth will be the clansmen of the Zhong family and the von der Leyen family. If you want to get anything from me, the Zhong family and the von der Leyen family will all die, and this difficulty is comparable to the sudden explosion of the galaxy and the extinction of mankind. So, you better pay attention to Dad. ”

Madame Zhang suddenly pounced on Zhong Jinpeng's heels and said, "Duke, we have raised your daughter for so many years, and we have worked hard without merit, how can you make such a decision? Have you forgotten Er Rou? She gave birth to Yuexi for you without regrets, and died at such a beautiful age, Yuexi was lonely, how can you be so cruel?"

Zhang Yuexi also remembered the point, walked over to Zhong Jinpeng, her eyes were confused, and said, "...... Father...... Do you know how much I admire you? I used to only look at you from afar, but I was your daughter, and I just wanted to stay with you and honor you and be filial to you......"

Star Swirl hurriedly applauded, and rushed to say like cross talk: "Congratulations on the reunion of your father and daughter! Zhang Yuexi, you must be filial to your father, otherwise, after more than two hundred years, you will not get anything from your father's will." Of course, you must be well-behaved, Dad likes to be well-behaved, so Dad will give more pocket money, and he will also find you the best aristocratic husband in high society. I have my mother, my eldest brother and sister-in-law, my second brother and sister-in-law, and my sister who helped me find a wishful husband, but you don't have it! So, you must be more filial to your father than me. I know that you have inherited your own mother's gentle words, little bird-clothed people, and pitiful people, and Daddy sees you as if he saw your mother, then he will pity you even more!

Elise was already speechless about her daughter's natural black and natural pit, but when she heard her daughter's words, she couldn't help but laugh, and when Zhong Jinpeng looked at her, she turned her head again. Natural Black Fish is a "prophet" who has labeled all the methods of the Zhang family as preventive.

Zhong Jinpeng looked at Xing Xuan, angry and funny, this proud woman of the sky does not know that the hungry man is hungry, how can she be high up on the ground and pit Zhang Yuexi like this?

"Star Swirl, you don't mess around, you've had enough trouble today. ”

Star Swirl walked over and said, "Dad, it's okay if you visit Zhang Yuexi a few more times in the future. In principled situations, my mother is still very generous, although you are good to her, I am not jealous. ”

"I'm afraid you'll faint. Zhong Jinpeng was referring to the fact that she was stunned as soon as she heard about Zhang Yuexi's identity before. Zhong Jinpeng was also an unruly lord when he was young, not the kind of serious and wooden man, and at this time, this vicious little villain did these things, which obviously eased Elise's attitude towards him, and he couldn't help but joke about his daughter.

"No, it won't. However, you can't mess around with my younger siblings outside, and I don't recognize them. ”

"Nonsense. ”

Star Swirl patted the folder and said, "Dad, next, Steward Zhang and Zhang Yuexi will handle it yourself." I'm flashing!" she was going to ask a lawyer to be fair and issue a resolution to the media, and the result was out.

Elise stood up and said, "I'll go with you." She was still happed by the way she was doing, and she saw that the illegitimate daughter wanted to climb Star Swirl but had no chance of doing so. As a mother and daughter, she is naturally happy to support her like this and protect herself.

Zhong Jinpeng saw their mother and daughter walking away together, he was ashamed and relieved, Zhang Yuexi still looked at him pleadingly and expectantly.

Zhong Jinpeng said: "I will buy you a house in the imperial capital and give you a sum of money, this is the only thing I can do, in fact, I also gave Zhang Errou enough money back then, and the righteousness of benevolence has been fulfilled." ”

"No! You're my father! I'm your biological daughter! I'm your biological daughter like Zhong Xingxuan! Why do you do this to me? She's a treasure, and I'm grass?"

Zhong Jinpeng felt a little guilty and said, "I will give you enough money to live." You study hard, and you can mention your identity when you have the opportunity in the future. ”

Zhang Yuexi went over and grabbed his arm, it was the first time she was so bold, but she was afraid that if she missed this opportunity, it would be difficult for her to see him again.

"Dad, I'm your daughter, I don't want to leave here! I won't fight with my sister or anything, I will be obedient, I will respect my wife and be filial to my wife. "Living outside the Zhang family is even farther away from the circle of the aristocracy, such as the ball of high society, will someone send an invitation to the Zhang family? Will the children of the nobility come to the banquet of the Zhang family? She knows very well that she can only get into the social circle of high society with Star Swirl. But why is Zhong Xingxuan so vicious and doesn't give her a way out?

"Madame is not your mother, she has nothing to do with you, and she doesn't need you to be filial. Zhong Jinpeng said to Steward Zhang again: "I warned you, take care of your mouth, now I don't want to pursue more, you go back to pack your things and leave tomorrow." ”

How could Zhang Yuexi be willing, God knows how much she has expectations these days? She finally got a noble hero's biological father, she is going to live a completely different life, how can she be thrown away like this?

All this was Zhong Xingxuan's trick, Zhang Yuexi grabbed Zhong Jinpeng's sleeve and cried: "Why, Dad? My sister doesn't talk about sisterhood at all, she is not filial, I saved her! How can you let her lead her by the nose like this, and be so cold to her own daughter? Our father and daughter can't enjoy their families, it's all her who is the obstruction, don't you see?"

When Zhong Jinpeng heard this, his golden eyes were cold, and he said: "What's going on, I'm not blind, don't use this kind of mind anymore! She is not your sister, you don't need filial piety." Originally, I arranged for you to be a companion and have arranged the best future for you, but you have opened the way, so you bear the consequences! In the future, you will live a good life by yourself, and I will ask my assistant to arrange for you to transfer schools, and studying hard is the way. ”

At this point, Zhong Jinpeng didn't want to say more, turned around and left the conference hall.

On the same day, the Château de la Château Chung von der Leyen issued a joint notice of the resolution signed by Duke Chung Jinpeng and Duchess Elise von der Leyen and remarked by four lawyers.

In general, it is the most official statement about this incident.

The Duke had an illegitimate daughter, but she had nothing to do with the family and could not represent or do anything in the name of the family on any occasion. Any individual, group, or group that has any connection with the illegitimate daughter will exercise their right to pursue any name related to the Chung von der Leyen family.

And Countess Zhong Xingxuan also issued a personal statement: she has nothing to do with her father's illegitimate daughter, and no matter what happens, there is no possibility of sisters recognizing each other. If an illegitimate daughter does anything in her name, she will be held legally responsible. In addition, it declares that it will only recognize siblings born in wedlock, and if there are any illegitimate children of the father, this declaration will apply.

Although it is said that in the interstellar age, the Galactic Empire is divided into nobles and commoners, in this survival type colonization star numbered hundreds, and the population of the parent planet Zeus alone reached 60 billion. There will definitely be no shortage of keyboard warriors - in fact, voice typing is also possible, and the various website forums of the home star are so lively that even the 21st century is unattainable.

As one of the three major principalities of the Galactic Empire, the marriage and family of the von der Leyen family, the marriage and family of the legendary handsome hero Marshal Duke and the Duchess who is about to take over as the Empire's finance minister are definitely more eye-catching than a hundred stars selling their breasts together.

In fact, there will be a lot of gossip in the major aristocratic families, which is not fundamentally different from the follow-up of people staring at the cheating of a star's beautiful wife in the 21st century.

If anything, it is that since ancient times there have been very few celebrities or nobles who have made such a solemn announcement on such a matter - the impartiality of the signatures of the four barristers is a serious official document with legal effect.

The heat of this matter is no less than the victory of another "Carol" galaxy war, and it must be difficult for the emperor to steal the headlines after his death. - Although, as for what the illegitimate daughter mentioned in the announcement looks like, the common people do not know.

People in the interstellar era do not have a relatively expensive optical brain, and they will also wear smart communicators, which are functional enough to access the Internet, and even the owner only needs to talk to the 3D virtual person about the general meaning, and the 3D intelligent virtual person can also be organized into various styles of text.

"I didn't expect the 'Chung-von der Leyen' estate to respond to this and even allow any media to retweet the announcement. Aren't the aristocrats all a group whose 'ugliness cannot be publicized', who are glamorous on the outside, but who are extremely depraved on the inside? ”

"It's rare that 'Chung-von der Leyen' would respond to the public like this! Looking at the way they handled it, it seems that the marriage between the two families is still very strong, and the duchess and duchess have obviously discussed it. An illegitimate daughter is an illegitimate daughter, and it is impossible to fly on the branches. It can be told that those women who want to put it upside down for the nobles to sleep well and have children and borrow children to take the throne are also in vain to sleep, and it is useless to have children. ”

"I admire the duchess's neat and tidy way of doing things, and there is nothing to talk about with her husband's illegitimate daughter. If my future husband has an illegitimate daughter, I have the same attitude, fuck off!"

"The most surprising thing is the countess of the Zhong family, she is a seventeen-year-old girl who personally followed her parents to make a statement. This is not a chance for half-born daughters to borrow power to enter high society!"

"Look, look at the latest news! Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has also made a statement, almost exactly the same as the countess! These two sisters have one heart!"

Later, the news spread to the Raph galaxy and the Xiaojin Crow galaxy, and the two sons of the Zhong family also passed the same statement to the home planet through the wormhole. 166 Reading Network
