Hong Qi smiled and said, "I will write to ask the elders in Beijing what they mean, but it's hard to say what the result is." ”

Mrs. Qiu smiled: "That's natural, it's troublesome Aunt Hong." ”

After Mrs. Qiu said goodbye and left, Hong Qi invited Concubine Lu to come, told Mrs. Qiu about her intentions, and asked Concubine Lu what kind of person Qiu Liancheng was and how the Qiu family's reputation in the local area was.

Concubine Lu had already known why Mrs. Qiu came to find Hong Qi.

Mrs. Qiu also once asked her, saying that if Hong Qi asked at that time, please ask her to say good things in front of Hong Qi. As for some other things, please cover them up as well.

If it were someone else, Concubine Lu might have sold Mrs. Qiu's favor.

After all, Mrs. Qiu's husband, General Qiu, is one of the four most powerful generals under the account of the king of Zhenbei, and there are many children of the Qiu family in the army, together with the other three Lu family, the He family and the Miao family, they are all very well-established military families in Zhenbei City, and the clansmen have been in the army for generations, and they have a lot of power in the Zhenbei army. Concubine Lu is from one of the Lu family, and she has some in-law relationship with the Qiu family.

But it's about Hong Qi, this favor, Concubine Lu didn't dare to give it.

Li Mo attaches so much importance to Hong Qi, if she collaborates with people outside to deceive Hong Qi, return Hong Qi's sisters, and afterwards Hong Qi has a grudge, then it is not only her who is unlucky, but I am afraid that even the Lu family will also be implicated.

No matter how powerful the Lu family is, it was also given by the king of Zhenbei. Once the king of Zhenbei is annoyed, the foundation of the Lu family will be empty in a blink of an eye. And the king of Zhenbei listened to Li Mo the most. Li Mo's words are much more important than the Lu family.

Concubine Lu was very sober.

For an in-law who says that it is not far away, and it is not close to offend Hong Qi, the person in Li Mo's heart, it is absolutely not cost-effective.

Therefore, Concubine Lu told the truth, not only told the truth, but also said it very clearly.

To say that Qiu Liancheng, in Zhenbei City is also a character, heroic appearance, extraordinary bearing, strong martial arts, very valued by the king of Zhenbei, at a young age is already a five-grade general, the future is great. Such a person used to be a good husband in the hearts of many girls in Zhenbeicheng.

But Qiu Liancheng didn't know what bad luck he had, and he married three wives in a row, and all three wives died. Later, there was a reputation of "Ke Wife", and his family affairs were difficult. has a good family background and a good talent, and refuses to marry the girls in the family to him, and Mrs. Qiu doesn't look down on those with poor family backgrounds and poor appearance.

Since the suicide of his third wife the year before, he has not been able to talk about his family anymore.

Hong Qi originally felt that Kyoto in Zhenbei City was too far away, and the family couldn't take care of anything if something happened, you must know that women in this era are not as low as modern times. It's better to have your mother's family to take care of you, but if you don't have your mother's family to take care of it, once something happens, it's really called every day and shouldn't be called the earth.

Like Red Five, people are still in Kyoto!

As a result, something like that happened last time, and he was almost put under house arrest in Xiangwang's Mansion and couldn't come out. This is true for those who are near, let alone those who are far away.

Therefore, she was not very interested in this marriage.

Now, I heard such a thing from Concubine Lu's mouth, and I am even less interested in this family business. She doesn't really believe in any "wife" or "wife", but there are many girls with average appearance and nothing missing, so why do you have to marry a man who has three dead wives? It's not that there are no other candidates.

According to Hongqi's meaning, he naturally refused this marriage.

But after all, she is not the head of the family now, and this kind of thing is not easy to make rash decisions, it still depends on what Hongsan, the second master, and the second wife mean.

Concubine Lu's intelligence saved Hong Qi a lot of time, this kind of casual inquiry will reveal the stuff, Hong Qi believes that Concubine Lu can't tell this kind of lie. Hong Qi expressed his gratitude to Concubine Lu.

Concubine Lu said with a smile: "It's just a trivial matter, it's nothing, Aunt Hong doesn't have to take it to heart." I don't know what Aunt Hong's plans are for this matter? If I find it difficult to say no in person, I can run for my aunt. With this face, Mrs. Qiu will definitely sell me. ”

Hong Qi smiled and said: "Thank you Niangniang for your kindness, when there is a result, you may be about to trouble the side concubine at that time." ”

sent away Concubine Lu, and Hong Qi asked people to invite Hong San.

After a while, Hongsan came over. Hong Qi told him about it, and Hong San's face was slightly red, obviously not expecting such a thing to happen. After Hong Qi finished speaking, he asked casually: "What do you think?" "Red Seven is really just by the way, in her opinion, it is natural that Red San will refuse. After all, what teenage girl would want to marry a widower who has three dead men? And also to stay away from parents, relatives and friends, to a completely unfamiliar environment.

No matter how you look at it, it's not a good family business.

Red Three deserves better.

Red Seven thinks so, but Red Three is not Red Seven, and Red Seven's idea is not Red Three's idea. Therefore, when she heard Hong San say "let me think about it for a few days", Hong Qi simply thought that her ears had heard it wrong.

"An old man with three dead wives and three oil bottles is still in such a cold and barren place in Zhenbei City, why should you consider it, third sister?"

Red Seventy didn't understand.

Hong San said with a smile: "Three wives died, seventh sister, didn't you say that Concubine Lu said, one died of illness, one fell into the water, and the other was because of dystocia, Qiu Liancheng chose to save his wife and children." As a result, the third lady couldn't stand the pain of losing her child, so she chose to commit suicide? In this way, it is not about this Qiu Liancheng, and at that time, many men will choose to save their children first instead of their wives, but he can choose his wife, I think it is very rare for such a man to value love and righteousness. At the very least, I don't have to worry about dying of childbirth. Moreover, listening to Concubine Lu's words, this autumn general has outstanding appearance, outstanding martial arts, and at a young age, he is already a general of the fifth grade, and his family background is also very good. Such a person, I am a concubine, what else is there to choose? If it weren't for him having such a flaw, it would be difficult to find a good relative, I'm afraid it wouldn't be my turn to pick up this bargain! As for being far from home, I don't think it's a problem. At that time, the eldest sister was not yet, she left home at a young age, and married to Kyoto alone, at that time, the eldest sister was only more than thirteen years old, and I am now almost sixteen. Can't I handle it? Moreover, compared to Kyoto, which has many rules, I think that Zhenbei Castle is quite good. After this period of time, I really feel that although materially speaking, Zhenbei Castle is not as colorful as Kyoto, but women have more freedom and higher status here. The people here are big and generous, and I really think it's a good place to live. ”

Hong Qi can't help but admit that what Hong San said has her reason.

Although Hong San has outstanding appearance, the background of the concubine does limit her marriage, and the second wife has been picking for a long time, but she has not jumped to the satisfaction level.

"But Qiu Liancheng already has three children, and it's not easy to be a stepmother."

Red Seven reminded.

Hong San smiled: "A good stepmother, of course, is not good. But who says I have to be a good stepmother? It's okay to get by with a big face, just don't treat them badly. I'm too lazy to embarrass myself for those false names. Moreover, because he already has three children, it is not so important when I will have children and whether I can have children. Haven't you seen many women who have married and finally divorced their husbands' families because of the issue of heirs? I don't even have to worry about that, wouldn't it be better? ”

As soon as Hong San said this, Hong Qi had nothing to say.

There are indeed drawbacks to marrying Qiu Liancheng, but as Hong San said, the benefits are actually a lot of reads;. Since Hongsan herself thinks so clearly, what else does she, an outsider, care?

Hong Qi said: "Since this is the case, then I will let people investigate this Qiu Liancheng and take a look, if it is really as Concubine Lu said, there are no other problems, I will write to the second wife again to see what they have opinions." ”

Hong San smiled and nodded, looking in a good mood.

When Hong Qi saw it, he couldn't help but ask, "Have you already seen that Qiu Liancheng?" ”

Red Seven guessed. Otherwise, she really didn't understand why Hong San was so happy. Even as Hong San analyzed, marrying Qiu Liancheng does have many benefits, from the level of practical significance. But in any case, the decision of a daughter who has not yet left the cabinet to marry a widower who is almost ten years older than her feels like a last resort, and it should be relatively reluctant. Who will be like Red San, not entangled at all. This is not normal.

Hong San was stunned and shook his head.

Autumn City?

When did she see it.

Hong Qi found that she needed to be impressed with this sister!

After discussing this matter with Hong San, after Hong San left, Hong Qi asked Shuying to come over, saying that he wanted to borrow Li Mo's people to investigate the personnel of the Qiu family, especially Qiu Liancheng, the more detailed the better. Shuying knew that it was for Hong San's marriage, so she readily agreed, and asked Hong Qi to wait for her news.

Hong Qi thanked Shuying.

As soon as Shuying left, Qiushuang pouted: "I can too, miss." ”

Qiushuang had a feeling that the job that belonged to her was snatched away by others, and she felt very uncomfortable. Hong Qi smiled: "Wait until you learn what to say here." Now you go out to inquire about the news, but you are afraid that it will attract the attention of others, which is not good. ”

Qiushuang clenched her fists and made up her mind that she must learn the local dialect of Zhenbei City as much as possible. Otherwise, if there is a matter, the young lady will not leave it to her. Chunfeng shook his head: "I really don't understand what the third lady is thinking." Although Zhenbei Castle is relatively free, where is it better to compare with Kyoto? Moreover, once something happens, when the mother's family knows, the daylily will be cold. "If it were her, she would never let her family marry so far.
