The encounter of the concubine of the East Palace was too shocking, and for a while, the atmosphere in the room was a little calm. 『』

Qin Wan smiled slightly and took the initiative to ask: "Cousin Boqing, I heard that Chang'an is very big and there are many powerful people. Is it true that a random kick of a stone on the road can hurt a nobleman? ”

Her curiosity was too obvious, in stark contrast to her previous calmness, Qin Ke and Shen Man saw this, and their hearts became sad again.

Shen Huai saw that Qin Wan was a few years younger than his eldest daughter, and his pity was great, and his expression was gentle and kind: "There are few people in the world who can be worthy of your nobles, although Chang'an is a lot of powerful people, but Tai is half of a discerning, like the young son of Lu Xianghou, after all, there are few masters." After that, he vividly described what he saw and heard at that time, how domineering the young son of the Marquis of Lu Township was, how heroic Xiao Yu was, and made a decision immediately; Lu Xianghou was reprimanded by the sage, and after almost losing his official position, he beat his youngest son, who had always been spoiled, so that he couldn't get out of bed for more than a month; If it was a little better, he had to go to the Wei Palace, and a series of things such as pleading guilty were very interesting.

Being interrupted by the two of them like this, Qin Ke's mood was a little better, and he said with a smile: "Children's family, it's normal to mess around, I didn't teach before, and if something happens, I will fight again, this is a father's dereliction of duty." ”

"Cousin Boqing, why are you a little nervous?" Sensing Shen Huai's stiffness for a moment, Qin Wan asked slowly, "Is something wrong?" ”

Shen Huai had planned to pick a suitable time to tell one thing, but when Qin Wan was so little, he was surprised by his little cousin's keen observation, but his face showed an embarrassed look, and he hesitated for a long time, but he never dared to say it.

Seeing this, Shen Man probably knew what to expect, so he said, "Say it!" ”

"This, this ......" Shen Huai hesitated for a long time before he straightened his chest, with a look of seeing death as home, extremely fast, and said without the slightest stumbling, "Zhou Ruren not only chose a marriage for His Royal Highness's second son, but also helped His Royal Highness's eldest daughter to protect the media, and now that your eldest grandson has been born, your grandson is about to ......" At this point, he stopped tremblingly, because he found that Qin Ke's face had become extremely bad.

Qin Ke has six concubines, just three on one side.

His second son Qin Jing and his fourth son Qin Dun were both born to the Zhou family, the former is still a month or two away from the crown, as for Qin Ke's eldest daughter Qin Juan, she is nineteen years old this year.

For unmarried men and women, this age is indeed older, but how can there be a biological father still in this world, and the mother is still alive, so a concubine is good at advocating the truth of marrying children and daughters?

The eldest grandson has been born, haha, the eldest grandson has been born.

The woman is pregnant in October, and the marriage has to be prepared for a long time, even if Qin Jing's wife is Dongfangxi. From the beginning of the negotiation of marriage to the safe landing of the child, it will take two years of effort. Zhou Hongying is so sure, he and Manniang can't go back?

Shen Man gently patted Qin Ke's back, but he was sneering in his heart.

I really didn't expect that Zhou Hongying would be stupid enough to do this, not only did she provoke Da Lang's taboo, but the timing was so good, it was precisely the marriage of Zhang Luo's children after their assassination...... This time, even if Zhou Hongying grows a hundred mouths and cries blind in her eyes, it will be useless.

The death of the eldest son has always been a thorn in Qin Ke's heart, and he thought that he had pushed the child too hard, so that Kun'er could not afford to be sick. After the assassination, he became a little suspicious, he only felt that there were murderous intentions everywhere, only his wife and daughter and Pei Xi were credible, but Zhou Hongying's marriage for his son was so coincidental in time...... Qin Ke has not forgotten jì, Kun'er has won the love of the saint, since Kun'er entered the manna hall to study, after being repeatedly praised by the saint, because of Sun Lizi's statement, the prayer received by the palace on behalf of the king can be used as firewood.

Such a grand occasion will naturally hinder the eyes of others.

Qin Ke would not suspect Shen Huai, because of such a major event as becoming a biological child, even if Shen Huai made it up now, he would be exposed when he returned to Beijing, so he rubbed his temples and was silent for a while before asking, "Which one?" ”

Shen Huai looked at Qin Ke's face and said cautiously: "The granddaughter of Yong'an Hou, the second daughter of the third room." ”

"Yong'an Hou has sat in the position of Taifu Qing for seven years, and he has won the trust of the saint." Qin Ke looked at Shen Man and asked, "Is the fourth room a concubine or a concubine?" ”

Shen Man sighed and said helplessly: "Come out." ”

When Qin Ke heard this, he laughed at himself: "Look at me, if the three generations of direct elders are concubines, their daughters are not allowed to enter the royal family." Even if Qin Jing lost his identity, it would be troublesome to really investigate it, how shrewd Yong'an Hou was, he would naturally not make such a mistake. I don't know how Zhou Hongying climbed this good family business? ”

Taifu Temple is in charge of wealth, Tibet, and trade, and is in charge of the four cities of Kyoto, the left and right Tibet, and the seven offices of Changping. Where the Quartet tribute, hundreds of officials and ranks, the cashier. Although in Great Xia, the authority of Taifu Temple has been better reduced by the household department, and the power is not as good as before, but it is still a fat shortage in the eyes of the world. Yong'an Hou was able to sit in this position for seven years, which is enough to see that he has the trust of the saint and is also very capable.

A concubine who has lost his royal status can get such a good marriage? Unless they are sure that they are dead, and the saint makes an exception to Qin Jing in order to compassionate the clan and show benevolence, and asks Qin Jing to offer incense to himself, otherwise, why did the Marquis of Yong'an marry his granddaughter?

As soon as Shen Man saw Qin Ke's expression, he knew that he wanted to be left.

The Marquis of Yong'an is promising, but like the King of Shu, he is a merry seed. He married three wives before and after, leaving two sons and a daughter, and the two of them filled the house and gave birth to seven or eight children, as well as concubines and concubines from the concubine room. There are all kinds of children, and there are about 30 children alone. Although the concubine can be sent away by giving a settling-in fee, and the concubine is even more married and can't share the family property, but this marriage always costs money, right? Besides, the concubines can be divided, the concubines, and the house-fillers, all of them can stay in the Hou Mansion justifiably. These people have children again, and they are so prosperous that there are so many that Yong'an Hou may not even recognize his grandchildren.

Taifu Siqing is certainly a fat shortage, if Yong'an Hou dares to stretch out his hand too much, he can't live well now. He has achieved a high-ranking official from the third grade, and he is a marquis, and now he has retired by himself, but his children and grandchildren have not achieved much. Even if it is for the sake of children and grandchildren, there must be no less human contacts, let alone loss of dignity. In addition, the grandchildren are getting older day by day, and they need money to marry each other, so they can't look too shabby...... Shen Man concluded that for the sake of money, Mrs. Yong'an Hou was absolutely so worried that her hair turned white.

If there are too many people, the grandchildren will be worthless, but they still have to maintain their status and cannot buy and sell marriages. If Zhou Hongying can give her son a large sum of money as a dowry, or if she can bloom lotus flowers with her tongue, she will directly fool others...... With his surname, it may not be very difficult to marry the granddaughter of Yong'an Hou.

Knowing that she knows, why did she sue Qin Ke for these things? .

"The Zhou family ......" Shen Huai paused, and said, "With the momentum of my uncle, I got a lot of good land and shops, and as soon as my uncle leaves, someone will come to take it." It is said that the Zhou family had a difficult time until they were bumped into by the King of Wei. The King of Wei was benevolent and had to take care of it, and the Zhou family was ecstatic and planned to switch to the name of the King of Wei. The king of Wei was frightened and closed the door, and the people of the Zhou family did not give up, so they asked for Princess Wei's maiden home, that is, the Su family of the prince of Qucheng County. ”

King Wei's biological mother was misbehaving and was disgusted by the saints, and she didn't even have the qualifications to come out during the New Year's holidays. Because of this, King Wei is very low-key, and he never dares to slack off on what the sage commands, and tries his best to do it well. Although he looked cold and cold-hearted, and his methods were quite ruthless, he actually had a little chivalrous heart, just looking at the brothers who refused to help Qin Ke's son, only he would know if he lent a helping hand.

"Qucheng Jungong?" Qin Ke was a little surprised, "Ten years ago, Su Rui was still a marquis, right?" ”

Referring to Su Rui, the prince of Qucheng County, Shen Huai was a little excited, and unconsciously revealed a trace of admiration: "The Duke of Qucheng County has been fighting the border for ten years, winning countless battles, and now he has achieved the protection of the capital of Annan." He has been fighting abroad all these years, and only his wife, four sons and one daughter are stationed in Chang'an's home, and there is not even an elder. ”

He said it in a vague way, but everyone present understood.

The identities of Zhou Ruren and Qin Jing are very delicate, and the confidence of King Wei is not so sufficient, what the prince next to him can easily do, he needs to pay thousands of times more effort. If Qin Jing is turned away, the good man will not be able to do it to the end, and after being known by the sage, he may not know what to eat. After all, the prince of Qucheng County is a courtier, and the head of the family is fighting outside...... It is not so easy to refuse Zhou Hongying's door.

Speaking of which, it was King Wei who was hot for a while, so he got himself into trouble that he couldn't get rid of.

Hearing "Duchess of Qucheng County", Shen Man subconsciously frowned, Qin Ke saw this, first confused, and then smiled slightly: "What happened so many years ago, do you still remember!" ”

When Shen Man heard this, he also laughed: "Mo Luan and I have been compared since childhood, and others say that I am not as good as her, and even after the will of the princess, many people say that if she hadn't been engaged to Su Rui...... That's it, although she is a little fake, she still has a very good way of doing things, I don't know how the eldest lady's marriage is? Speaking of this, she showed a hint of worry, "Women, if you marry the wrong person, you will ruin most of your life." ”

Shen Huai coughed embarrassedly and whispered: "I heard that the great-ancestor was a family of Shangshu Youcheng, and he married into the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, and the husband is very good at reading and is ready to make a name for himself." ”

Great-grandfather did Shangshu right? What about grandfathers? What about uncle? The official position is so low that Shen Huai is embarrassed to mention it, maybe he is a white Ding at all?

Can read? I don't forget that I can read, and I still know how to read when I am casually praised...... Compared with Qin Jing's marriage, this marriage is not only 108,000 miles away? This Zhou Hongying, this Zhou Hongying!

Qin Ke slammed the table, Shen Man sighed, and comforted: "After returning to Beijing, we will be the husband of the eldest lady, after all, we are close relatives of flesh and blood." ”
