Chapter 182: Agreed
Qin Song had the idea of separating the family as early as when the Qin family was rehabilitated and he returned to the old mansion in the capital, especially after he found out how difficult and hateful the Xue family in the second room was, this idea became deeper and deeper. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, at that time, the Qin family had just been reborn after the catastrophe, and Qin Bofu in the second room was the only male in the junior, and he was still a posthumous son, and Qin Youzhen, who was also a posthumous girl, was raised by Mrs. Ye, which made Queen Qin love the house and Wu. These two children are still young, and Empress Qin will never allow her brother to propose the word separation, so that the Qin family's flesh and blood will be divided and suffer. Qin Song repeatedly stated that Qin Bofu's background was suspicious, and it was probably not Qin Huai's son, and he could not make Empress Qin change her mind. At that time, he had to rely on this sister everywhere, so he could only give in.
After the death of Empress Qin, the emperor always adhered to the last wish of his deceased wife, and refused to agree to let the Qin family separate. Even when Qin Bofu grew up, married a wife and had children, he still refused to let go. Xue probably discovered this, thinking that he had been protected by the palace, and he had no fear, so he shouted at Changfang at every turn to bully others, so that he always had to find a way to refute the rumors. The matter of separating the family is naturally impossible to talk about.
But that's no longer the case.
If it is the third brother Qin Bai who proposes to divide the family, it is certain that the emperor in the palace will never say "no", he will only agree to any request from Qin Bai, except for giving up the throne. In the eyes of the outside world, the third room of the Qin family, who has never returned to Beijing to enjoy the wealth of the Marquis of Chengen, asks for a separation, and it will not be misunderstood as a bully of the weak second room, because although the second room does not have a title, it is much richer than the third room. And the three-room is still proposed because the emperor gave the house, so the division was proposed, who can say that the proposal of the three-room is wrong?
The third room is destined to be divided, so there is no reason for the second room to stay. It has never been possible to divide the family only into the descendants but not the branches.
The more Qin Song thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't sit still: "Is the third brother sure that he wants to split up? Will he take the initiative to enter the palace and mention it to the emperor? As long as he can get the emperor's decree, this matter will be easy to do." We don't need to divide the two rooms into too many things, just take some land and silver and send them away. Hmph, in the past few decades, they have spent money everywhere, and they don't know how many things they are greedy for in private. I don't ask them to get it back, it's already giving face to the dead ghost. They still want to divide the property? That's a fantasy!"
Xu frowned, and said to Qin Song disapprovingly: "Why does Lord Hou want to leave a handle on such side matters? You are the eldest son of Yan and have inherited the ancestral house, and our ancestral hall sacrifices are all in charge of our Changfang." According to the laws of this dynasty, the ancestral property will belong to you, and the rest will be divided equally among the sons. Most of the treasures and properties in our house are ancestral properties, as well as things that have been given by the emperor or the palace over the years. The things that are given to him will naturally belong to whomever they are given, and the ancestral property will not be distributed to the Shu Branch, and there are not many people who can really share it in the second room. If you want to cut it a little more, as a second wife, you will definitely not give up. If the trouble goes to the yamen, the Hou Ye will take the blame, won't he let outsiders see the joke in vain? It will also make the emperor and His Royal Highness the crown prince lose their faces. Since you want to score, you will score impeccable! Even if the second wife makes trouble with the yamen, there is nowhere to say anything!"
Qin Song was a little unwilling: "Although your words are reasonable, it's just that the second room is too cheap! Even if they don't get many things, there are several granges and storefronts, and there are tens of thousands of silver." Over the years, they have withheld the money from the public and are still greedy for less? If they divide the family and divide their share, our long house is getting poorer and poorer! If it is only given to the second room, it is enough, and the third room is also divided into a share. All the money is spent, do you want us to drink the northwest wind from top to bottom of the long house?!"
Xu Shi sighed and said, "Don't worry, Master Hou, I know in my heart that if the family is really divided, the silver will naturally be less, but it is not enough to drink the northwest wind." Divide the second room as soon as possible, our family can be regarded as trouble-free, otherwise Hou Ye will not feel uncomfortable in front of the people in the second room every day? Besides, ...... When I mention separation, there is actually another purpose. ”
She paused: "Hou Ye stays in the house all day now, and he doesn't care about things outside, maybe he doesn't know yet, right?" Because Hou Ye received the secret decree and recuperated at home, the people outside have not seen you for a long time, so they gradually gave birth to a lot of speculations, and the second room is ...... It seems that you have also pushed the tide, saying that you have angered the emperor, lost your favor, and will never be able to turn over in the future. Some people also say that Hou Ye must have made a big mistake, maybe it has something to do with the third master who has just returned to Beijing. The third master has been missing for thirty years, and Hou Ye has told people that he has passed away in the past thirty years, and now that he has come back alive, Hou Ye must have lied. is still so ruthless to his own brothers, and his character is really unbearable......"
"Enough!" Qin Song became more and more annoyed the more he listened, "You are angry with me with these words again, what do you want to say?!"
Xu Shi was silent for a moment before smiling and said, "Master Hou, it's not that I used these words to anger you. What do people on the outside know? It's just speculation, and they don't know what's going on. "Of course, if someone guesses the truth, that's what people are capable of.
Xu said: "The emperor is now angry with the Hou Ye, this is the truth. Maybe things will change, and the emperor will have a time to forgive the marquis. But now, it is also a fact that the saints of our long house are not as good as before. If it weren't for the fact that the third uncle still lives in our mansion and gets along well with Zhong Hai and Shu Tao, the emperor still doesn't know how he would treat their brothers! Over the years, the two children have endured many hardships in their careers, how could the Hou Ye bear to watch them continue to stumble? You and I are not young anymore, and we still have to think more about our children and grandchildren in the future. Even if it's for the future of your sons, you can't anger the emperor anymore, and you can't bear the infamy anymore!"
Qin Song listened impatiently at first, but when he heard this last sentence, he realized that something was wrong: "What do you mean by this?" do you want to ......" He gradually showed a look of disbelief, "You want the second room to bear this infamy for me?!"
Xu smiled slightly: "The third master has been stranded in the northwest for thirty years, although there is the fault of the Hou Ye here, but there is also the reason why the emperor was negligent and asked Jianan to take advantage of the loophole." The emperor will not say anything about Canaan, which would damage the reputation of the Ninety-Five Emperor. At the moment, you are responsible for the crime, but the emperor is hindering the queen mother and the crown prince, as well as the third master, even if he punishes the marquis, he has never invented a decree to let outsiders know. It can be seen that the emperor is still thinking about the reputation of the marquis. Since this is the case, let's divide the family and stay away from the second room in the future. The long house and the three-room house all have titles and royal mansions, and there are also many properties, and the heirs are luxuriant and promising. What is there in the second room? Only Qin Bofu is an official, and without the support of our Hou Mansion in the future, it is still unknown whether he can rise. Seeing that our long room and the third room are getting better and better, and they are close to each other, but the second room is rejected by our two rooms at the same time, what will outsiders think? Will they feel that you may be ashamed of the grievances suffered by the third master, but the second room is the one who should be more responsible?"
Qin Song's face was already showing a smile: "Not bad." If the second room hadn't relied on our long room, how could there be today's scenery? Qin Bofu is a green onion? Since the emperor has the heart to protect the third brother, he only needs the third brother to tell the emperor, don't tell others the truth, this black pot second room will be settled!"
Xu said: "There is no need for the third master to say anything to the emperor. Besides, the second room rarely has the opportunity to enter the palace, if they want to go beyond our long room and the third room, and enter the palace to appeal to the queen mother or the emperor, they can only count on Aunt Fu. But...... That is the aunt of our old marquis, and she has made great contributions to our Qin family, since she should be supported by us, what does it have to do with the second room? The second wife is not a filial piety, not only is she not very respectful to Aunt Fu, but she also can't tolerate Aunt Zhang. For the sake of the two aunts and grandmothers to be quiet in the future, let them continue to stay in the house. ”
The smile on Qin Song's face couldn't be suppressed, and he clapped his hands again and again: "Okay! Wonderful!That's it!" he laughed, "I can't wait to see the pitiful appearance of that Xue family's mother-in-law crying and mourning! Thirty years, a full thirty years! I've had enough of her a long time ago!"
That's what Xu wants. She smiled: "In this case, I will order someone to draw up the document of separation? I also have to discuss the detailed provisions of the document with the third master." When the paperwork is ready, I will send it to Master Hou for review. If Master Hou thinks it is feasible, let's notify the second room. What do you think?"
Qin Song felt that his wife was still thinking too much: "You asked someone to prepare the paperwork, just bring it to me directly." He also asked the third child what he was doing? If he wanted to share more of the family property, and I refused, wouldn't it be troublesome? If there was one trouble in the third room, the second room would be able to make trouble ten times! This opening could not be opened. ”
Xu Shi held back his anger and continued to smile: "The third master is not such a person. If he was really greedy for money, he would not have lived in the northwest for 30 years, let alone propose to split his family today. Besides, although the third master has not separated now, it is no different from a separate family. The emperor has already given the house down, and the property and property of the three rooms have been sealed in the C-shaped warehouse. There is nothing else except for the new land, shops, antiques and silver coins that have been purchased in the past 30 years. The real loss is actually the second room. The third master is a smart man, since he has the heart to divide the family, he will never leave a chance for the second room to make trouble. ”
Qin Song's heart was a little sour: "You know what he is like." But we have been separated from him for thirty years, and who knows if he has changed a long time ago, and if he had been a man who cares about these mundane things, he would not still hold a grudge against me. The emperor punished me so heavily, and he didn't help me intercede. ”
Xu Shi got up with a smile, but he didn't hear his words: "Since this matter has been agreed, then I will go to Zhonghai and Shu Tao to discuss the details of the document." Hou Ye have a good rest, don't anger the emperor again, so that there are extraneous branches. Also, although the cuckoo is intimate, but you are a person with spring and autumn, please take care of your body. She saluted, turned and walked out.
Qin Song was stunned for a moment before he reacted. Xu's leaving? This is ......
He bared his teeth, but when he thought that Xu seemed to have eaten cuckoo's vinegar before, he felt quite proud. After thinking about it, he just said a few words to the third brother Qin Bai, and the Xu family couldn't wait to say good things for Qin Bai, what did it mean? Qin Song suddenly felt that his heart was sour again.
However, when the cuckoo returned to the house and showed a gentle and beautiful smile at him, Qin Song put aside all these entanglements and enjoyed the service of the beauty with peace of mind, fantasizing in his heart that the second room was separated from the family, and he was increasingly impoverished and embarrassed, not to mention how happy he was in his heart.
