Chapter 420: Marriage
In the Jinhua Courtyard of the main courtyard of the Zhuo family, the brocade curtain of the main house was lifted to one side and hung on the silver hook on the side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe sun is shining outside the house, and the yard is green. Tall trees outside the main house cast a shade of greenery. A leaf fell on the stone table in the shade.
Mrs. Zhuo sat in the main room, put his hands on his lap, looked at the big tree outside the house, and said leisurely: "The person who is still the secretary of the military department has decided." ”
Hua Taijun sat on the side, his left hand on the table on the side, and his right hand twisted the Buddha beads. Look at the stone table under the big tree. She turned her head and glanced at Master Zhuo: "It's Lord He." ”
There was light and shadow outside the house, and Mrs. Zhuo didn't reply to Hua Taijun's words, but just looked at the tree trunk outside the curtain fixedly, and said expressionlessly: "The second one, I'm going to beat it." He always thinks from his point of view, and never thinks that he is the Zhuo family. There are some things, according to his approach, the Zhuo family will have an accident sooner or later. ”
"Luckily, the boss is here. But he did have to beat it up. Hua Taijun said, turned to look at Yimei behind him: "Yimei, go and call the second master over." Just say I have something to look for him. ”
"Yes. Yimei nodded in response and walked outside the house.
June Bingmao Day is the wedding day of Zhuo Yirou, the eldest daughter of the second daughter of the Zhuo family. It was the beginning of June, and the entire Zhuo family was ready. This is especially true for the second room. The preparations in the courtyard started early, and Zhuo Yirou was locked in the house and couldn't get out of the embroidered wedding dress.
Zhuo Zihua was discussing the wedding with him at that time.
The fact that Zhuo Yirou married the Sun family was not a big deal for the main courtyard, and she didn't think about tying herself to the same boat with the Sun family because of this matter. But Zhuo Zihua didn't think so. He only had this one daughter. If you use this woman as a bargaining chip, you can only go with the Sun family.
This is what he means, and it is also the meaning of the second room.
At first glance, when he heard that someone was looking for someone from the main courtyard, Zhuo Zihua frowned and followed.
Zhuo Zihua strode into the courtyard, bowed his head through the brocade curtain, and saluted Hua Taijun and Zhuo Taiye sitting on it: "Mother, father." ”
"Let's get up. Master Zhuo waved his hand and pointed to the stool next to him. Zhuo Zihua took two steps back to the side and sat on the stool.
Mrs. Zhuo glanced at him and waved at the maid in the house: "All stand down." ”
"Yes!" all the maids in the room responded, and they all withdrew. Before Mama Cao left, she lowered the brocade curtain at the door.
The maids retreated, and only the three of them were left in the house. The room suddenly fell silent.
"Second brother, do you know why your father and I asked you to come here today?" Hua Taijun turned his head and looked at Zhuo Zihua who opened his mouth first.
"The son was too stupid to guess what his parents meant. "Zhuo Zihua is still very honest in front of Mrs. Zhuo and Mrs. Hua. Sitting on a stool in a proper manner, he replied.
Mrs. Zhuo looked at him and said, "Second brother, you know the people who are still in the military department." ”
"I know, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, He Wenjing, Lord He. Zhuo Zihua said in a kind manner, but his brows furrowed slightly.
"Previously, why did you recommend Lord Song?" Mrs. Zhuo asked bluntly, he stared at Zhuo Zihua, and his voice was a little deep: "Could it be that in your opinion, Song Zhendong is more likely to be promoted?"
The trend of the imperial court was so obvious, in addition to the cabinet, Shen Boshi of the Ministry of Rites and Rites of the Six Ministries seconded Sun Xiang. In addition to the household department, Su Xinyuan and the military department, the ministers of the three ministries have two ministers, and they are all the same person. And the three divisions are also involved. Liu Wenliang and Uncle Zheng Tian are all the way in the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate.
In addition to the eyes of Emperor Ming Xian......
If Zhuo Zihua really thinks that Song Zhendong is more likely, he has nothing to say. Stupid to this point of rotten wood, what else can he beat. Knock the ants inside the wood?
Zhuo Zihua raised his eyes and glanced at Master Zhuo, then lowered his head: "Naturally, it's the opposite." ”
"Since you can guess the result, why do you have to get into this troubled water?!" Mrs. Zhuo raised his eyebrows. Now that you understand it, why do you have to carry it horizontally. Do you have nothing to do when you're full?" "Do you still think that the life of the Zhuo family is too peaceful, and your skin is itchy?"
Mrs. Zhuo said, glaring at Zhuo Zihua.
Zhuo Zihua raised his head, stared at Mrs. Zhuo, and suddenly raised his voice slightly: "What does my father mean, is it still possible to recommend He Wenjing?"
"Why not?" said Mrs. Zhuo and looked at Zhuo Zihua coldly: "The attitude of the saint is already so obvious, it is impossible to choose Song Zhendong, so why can't you sell it easily, and not offend both sides?"
The two sides that Mrs. Zhuo said were Xiao Tong, Zheng Shaoqing and others, as well as Emperor Ming Xian. The perennial chaos in the court is not in vain, he knows how to look at people's hearts, and he is also good at how to weigh the pros and cons.
"Don't offend both sides?" Zhuo Zihua frowned and looked at Master Zhuo: "What about Sun Xiang? Isn't Sun Xiang clearly offended?"
"What if you offend?" Mrs. Zhuo asked angrily: "He is a courtier who is disliked by the emperor, what if he is offended? Could it be that you still tie yourself to him, and if you offend, you can't continue?"
"Isn't it together?" Zhuo Zihua said, his voice was a little quieter, he looked at Mrs. Zhuo with questioning eyes, and asked uncertainly, "Aren't we together with Sun Xiang?"
In Zhuo Zihua's view, Zhuo Yirou and Sun Yunzhou's family affairs are the binding of two chains of interests. What, then, did the father mean by this?
"Together, isn't it because Sister Rou married into the Sun family that you think the Zhuo family's position is the same as the Sun family?"
"Isn't it?" Zhuo Zihua looked at Zhuo Shunwu, his frowning brows deepened.
Mrs. Zhuo looked at Zhuo Zihua, blew his beard angrily and glared, and after a while, he calmed down the anger in his heart before saying, "Second brother, I know what you mean." But you have to be clear that Sister Rou'er married into the Sun family, not because of the complicity of our Zhuo family and the interests of the Sun family. ”
"If it's not a conspiracy of interests, then what's the reason?" Zhuo Zihua looked at Mrs. Zhuo's frowning brows and never let go. He didn't expect that his father had a different position and idea from his own.
Mrs. Zhuo looked at him and slowly sank his face. There was no speech.
"Because of what?" Hua Taijun on the side withdrew his hand on the table, sat up straight, twisted the Buddha beads in one hand, and turned his head to look at Zhuo Zihua slowly and gloomily: "Second brother, do you think that I left this old face with your sister-in-law and ran around shamelessly begging the Sun family to marry Sister Rou because I couldn't make a profit with the Sun family?" Hua Taijun looked at Zhuo Zihua and said, in which the word 'begging' bit very deeply.
"If it is really a combination of interests, it must also be under the Zhuo family, and they can only be the pawns of the Sun family. No, it's coercion, temptation, and white-faced begging, do you still want to sit with the Sun family?" Hua Taijun said, looking at Zhuo Zihua and sneering: "I did this, but I didn't dip the pig cage for Sister Rou'er!"
