Zhuang Guo's arrangement for Zhuang Cheng is not complicated. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since the beginning of the empress, the royal family has been quite jealous of the family that accepts frustrated people from all over the world. After Wu Gaozu resumed the scientific examination, he frequently threw olive branches to the family, and even promised to recruit the younger brothers of the Shi family with high-ranking officials. On the surface, this move seems to be for the imperial court to recruit talents, but the seven families are all unclear, this is the emperor wants to detain the children of the family under his nose.
How could such a trivial matter violate the holy will? What's more, as long as the distance is well grasped, you can better understand the movements of the imperial family when you get close to the imperial court. According to the method of "there are clear orders and countermeasures", the children of the family also gave the emperor a measure to meet the secret defense. At the same time that the children of the family are frequently recruited, the seven families all hide the most optimistic children. The reason why this is done is naturally for the children of the family who are hiding outside.
The family has not fallen through the change of dynasty, and keeping a distance from the royal family is one of the reasons, but it does not mean that the family has no desire for imperial power. The seven-door family, who has seen the tragic destruction of the "five surnames and seven hopes", wants more initiative in addition to staying away from the royal family. And hiding behind the scenes and manipulating the world is a better way than staying away from the royal family to avoid the implication of regime change.
I don't want to have an inseparable relationship with the royal family, and I want to be in charge of the world, but I can only hide behind my back and work silently? Heroes are born in troubled times, and troubled times will also give those who have a heart the opportunity to manipulate the world, and now the current situation has made Zhuang Guo's two families find the best opportunity - Sun Qiongju.
If he can help Sun Qiongju seize the throne, the family with the power of the dragon can hide behind the scenes and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes. Even if Sun Qiongju can't ascend to the throne, she can also use her to influence Jiang He, the Duke of Dingnan, who has a heavy army. However, in order to achieve the realm of "coercing the Son of Heaven", in addition to seeking benefits for Sun Qiongju, who everyone in the world thinks has long been dead, it is also necessary to gain Sun Qiongju's absolute trust.
Zhuang Cheng was able to become the person chosen by Zhuang Guo's two families, and he completely took the initiative to jump out. As soon as he came, Zhuang Cheng was obsessed with Sun Qiongju and would wholeheartedly work for him for profit; Second, Zhuang Cheng is very young, but he has the achievement of being the head of the county test, which can be regarded as the most low-key existence in the family's generation. Moreover, Zhuang Cheng and Sun Qiongju's love since childhood is conducive to controlling Sun Qiongju in the future.
Compared with such a major event as manipulating imperial power, how could Zhuang Guo's family mind that Zhuang Cheng and Sun Qiongju had an inexplicable relationship? There was really that day, Zhuang Cheng and Sun Qiongju were guarding day and night, which was more conducive to Zhuang Guo's family to control Sun Qiongju through Zhuang Cheng. It's too late for Zhuang Guo's two families to enjoy their success, how can they care about such a trivial matter as their children's private affairs?
However, Zhuang Cheng is also a descendant of Zhuang Guo's second family. Although Zhuang Guo and the two heads of the family regard the interests of the family above all else, they also have the selfish desire to protect Zhuang Cheng.
Setting a suitable marriage, no matter what Zhuang Cheng and Sun Qiongju will develop, can make Zhuang Guo's family and the royal family draw a clear line on the bright side, and can protect Zhuang Cheng's reputation and life. In the case of already married, Zhuang Cheng cannot marry again, and naturally he will not be implicated in the rise and fall of the royal family.
gave birth to a child from an innocent background, and Zhuang Cheng will inevitably worry about future generations. Even if Zhuang Cheng can't help himself, he won't completely abandon the family. Even if the situation develops beyond expectations, Zhuang Cheng's descendants can also get the credit of their stepfather. Mrs. Zhuang and Guo Yan both believe that the living people work hard so that future generations can enjoy their blessings? Zhuang Cheng's children benefit, Zhuang Cheng benefits.
In any case, Zhuang Cheng is the most suitable person among the two families to contribute to Sun Qiongju. And before he can start running, he must be allowed to have a family to protect himself. This point is agreed by Mrs. Zhuang and Guo Li, although Guo Qi does not know the inside story, but he also got Guo Li's advice.
When it comes to family affairs, Guo Qi never thinks that he has the right to choose. After Guo Yan revealed to her that the marriage must be achieved, Guo Qi put aside her little longing. And Zhuang Cheng has something to belong to, Guo Qi has already known through Guo Li. In her opinion, there must be a reason why the heads of both families know about this matter but still want to promote this marriage. What can I do if I have been cared for by my family since I was born but to obey? Now it seems that Zhuang Cheng is not useless. His blunt inform, I don't know how many hypocrites he compared.
People who don't hide are better along.
Guo Qi thought so, and smiled at Zhuang Cheng, who had bright eyes and handsome eyes.
Zhuang Cheng thought for a while, got up and bowed to the west, and then persuaded in a sincere tone: "Even if my cousin has read the book of Xuwu Jushi, why should he give up himself for some others?" ”
"The books written by the Xuwu Jushi are only one book left in the Zhuang family in the world, and I have no chance to see them in the Guo family." Guo Qi said regretfully: "My family only has a few essays written by Chen Zhengxin, a disciple of Xuwu Jushi, and they are still copied by hand. ”
Chen Zhengxin was beheaded on the charge of "false reasoning and heresy with the intention of rebellion," and all books and texts related to it were destroyed as evil things. Until he died with his sins, the world did not know the true identity of the Void Wu Jushi. And Chen Zhengxin lobbied everywhere, and the "Xuwu Studies" from the hands of the Xuwu Jushi became a ban on the Great Wu because it was not conducive to the maintenance of the imperial power, and all the books that the Xuwu Jushi had left were also burned. It is extremely difficult for the dealer to have a lone book of virtual Wu Jushi, and it is normal for the Guo family to only have a hand-copied Chen Zhengxin to memorize.
With only a few essays, it is naturally difficult to understand the "Void Wu Studies" thoroughly. It is not surprising that Guo Qi can put forward the idea that "people should be loyal to themselves first", but they are deeply influenced by family concepts.
Zhuang Cheng, who had a clear purpose, didn't want to talk about anything else, although he felt that it was hopeless to persuade Guo Qi, he still asked without giving up: "What does my cousin mean is that he is willing to marry a man who already has someone else in his heart?" ”
"I lost my parents when I was very young, and it was the Guo family who raised me, and my uncle loved me even more. Compared with my cousin Cheng who met for the first time, of course, I believe in the uncle who has protected me for more than ten years. Putting down the teacup gently, Guo Qi said in a solemn tone: "Uncle has his own reasons for setting this marriage." I'm willing to listen to my uncle's arrangement. ”
She said: "I am the daughter of the Guo family in Langao, not Miss Jiao, who is only confined to the courtyard of the deep mansion. Lang Ao Guo will not dream of flowers and full moon in the daytime. This kind of thing that only exists in the play, how can it attract the eyes of the children of the family? No one is perfect, nothing is complete, my cousin just has a heart, and it is not an incurable disease, so why be afraid? ”
Zhuang Cheng suddenly understood why the object of marriage would be Guo Qi in front of him; Why the Maison likes to intermarry internally. Even the children who can't find the daughter of the family would rather choose a woman with an innocent background than marry a nobleman.
Zhuang Cheng, who was speechless, agreed to marry on the same day and set off to return to Longxi. And the promise of Mrs. Zhuang's family was really implemented, no matter how Zhuang Cheng's route changed and how fast the speed of the march was, the accompanying family and the groom had nothing to say.
It was a journey of more than a month, and it only took him nineteen days to travel without sleep.
