"On the way to the banquet, where did you go" When the banquet finally ended, after Xia Wusheng and Qiu Guhan returned to the guest room, Xia Wusheng finally put away his smiling face and questioned Qiu Guhan, "And I left for so long, and I didn't say a word to my uncle." ”

Qiu Guhan said: "I haven't experienced this kind of scene for a long time, I drank a lot of wine, and I felt a little unwell, but I couldn't let anyone see it, so I went out to blow the wind and take medicine." ”

In fact, he chased Feng Jinghua, because he was ignored and left behind by Feng Jinghua, he stood in the night wind for a long time before going back.

Xia Wusheng's face softened a little, and he asked with concern: "How is your body now?"

A pampered prince has suffered so many years of torture and suffering, and it is strange that he does not fall behind the root of his illness.

He is still impressed by the emaciated appearance of Liuxue when he first met him last year.

Qiu Guhan said: "It still needs to be slowly adjusted, but it's okay, Uncle Don't worry." ”

"That's good." Xia Wusheng changed his words and said, "I have been thinking about it for a long time in the past few days, and I feel that it is necessary to strike while the iron is hot and do things as soon as possible, although you now have the support of the Xia family, but the power is still too weak, so our top priority is to win over you a bigger backer." ”

The Xia clan has been clinging to mediocrity and comfort for many years, even if he has controlled his own clan and secretly recruited talents, it is difficult to change the situation that the Xia clan is not strong enough, and most of the really capable big people in the government and the opposition also have their own factions, which he cannot co-opt.

If he wants to strengthen Prince Yuki's power, he has to think of another way.

"Oh," Qiu Gu stared, "I don't know what good way Uncle Cousin has come up with."

"It's simple." Xia Wusheng stretched out two fingers and smiled meaningfully, "Marriage." ”

Dong Qiu's heart contracted heavily, and there was a faint undercurrent surging in the depths of his eyes, but his face was silent: "Please also ask Uncle Tang to say it clearly." ”

Xia Wusheng stroked his beard: "Knowing that the day you were still alive, I intended to find a wife and concubine for you." I have secretly investigated and observed for a long time, and I feel that the granddaughter of King Cangwu, Lord Songde, is the best candidate for the princess. ”

Qiu Guhan bowed his head slightly, his back to the candlelight, the coldness in his eyes was covered by shadows, and only his respectful expression was still well maintained by him: "Where is Lord Songde good?"

Of course, he knew about King Cangwu, but he didn't have any impression or feeling about Lord Songde.

King Cangwu, the god of war before the king of hunting, has also fought for decades, once powerful in the world, but twenty years ago because of old age, many injuries to go into hiding, now no longer ask about the world, but in the court and the army There are many disciples, and the influence is great.

As for Lord Songde, she is most famous for her pickiness about family affairs. She doesn't care about the man's background and status, she only cares about whether the man is handsome enough, so she guides either the man she likes is not accepted by the family, or the family likes she does not accept, or the other party who she and the family are satisfied with does not accept, therefore, her marriage has not been finalized for a long time, and it has become one of the strange stories in the aristocratic circle.

Xia Wusheng said: "Although Lord Songde is not beautiful enough, and she is a few years older than you, she has a gentle temperament, a broad mind, and is quite insightful, and she is a woman who can be a virtuous helper." And he is the youngest granddaughter of King Cangwu, and he is deeply loved by King Cangwu and his brothers and sisters, if you marry her, you will definitely be able to get the support of King Cangwu. ”

He paused, afraid that Qiu Guhan would not be able to see through the stakes, and explained: "Although King Cangwu has long since gone into hiding, and his children and grandchildren are not high-ranking officials, but he has many protégés and subordinates, if he can marry him, it is tantamount to recruiting a group of talents for himself." Moreover, King Cangwu is well versed in the way of officialdom and the tricks of people's hearts, and in his early years, he retired in advance to avoid high merit and shocked the lord, and did not let his children and grandchildren hold official positions above the third grade, which was all to protect his family. This kind of insight is not something that ordinary people can have, and it will be of great benefit to you if you can have his support. ”

Is this to betray the hue yourself?

Qiu Guhan sneered in his heart, and said, "Princess Songde's conditions are so good, she can still look at me"

"How can you not look down on it" Xia Wusheng disagreed, "First of all, no matter how noble you are the prince and how noble your identity is, in terms of your appearance alone, you are not inferior to the emperor, Songde is bent on finding a beautiful husband, if she sees you, she will definitely like it." And your identity is more than enough for a county lord, and I believe that King Cangwu will not have any dissatisfaction. ”

Although Lord Songde is not a stunning beauty, with her background and talent, she is not afraid of finding an excellent husband at all.

If it weren't for her obsession with beauty and the protection and problems of not marrying a really beautiful man, she would still be in the boudoir

Autumn Bone Han was silent.

He certainly wouldn't accept such a ridiculous marriage. But he didn't want to quarrel with Xia Wusheng about this matter.

Xia Wusheng saw that he was silent, thinking that he lacked self-confidence, so he said: "Don't worry, I will first go to find out the tone of King Cangwu and Lord Songde, and then ask the emperor for marriage when both parties are satisfied." ”

Qiu Guhan said: "Uncle Tang, I still have a marriage contract with Xia Lili. ”

At this time, his marriage contract with Xia Lili became the best baffle.

"Don't worry, I have a way to get the emperor to take the initiative to cancel this family business." Xia Wusheng said with confidence, "You don't have to worry about the pear pear. ”

Qiu Guhan said: "I heard that Lili thought I was dead, fell ill in bed, and said that she was going to become a monk, how do you plan to persuade her If she forces her, she may kill herself again." ”

The last time in Xiangjitang, after he staged that "death" drama in front of Xia Lili, it is said that Xia Lili couldn't afford to get sick, and committed suicide several times.

"Suicide" Xia Wusheng sneered, "The Xia family raised her so big and gave her glory and wealth, she didn't do anything for the Xia family, she wanted to die, how can there be such a simple thing in the world, rest assured, I have found a way to make her forget about your affairs and accept Ji Linfeng's marriage proposal." ”

Qiu Guhan raised his head slightly: "What way?"

Xia Wusheng said impatiently: "You have been back in Beijing for so long but you have ignored Lili, which shows that you are ruthless to her, since you are ruthless, you don't need to know this." In short, Lili marries Ji Linfeng, and you marry Lord Songde, which is the best for you and the Xia family. ”

Speaking of Xia Lili, he hates that iron is not steel.

It is rare for the Xia family to give birth to such a beautiful girl in the world, and give her supreme love and care, she can use her beauty to create a great career, but she does not think about returning, does not want to forge ahead, just wants to marry the person she likes, and even does not hesitate to harm and self-destruct, which makes him extremely disappointed.

If Xia Lili had the ambition, brains, and means to assist Liuxue in her success, he would consider letting her marry Liuxue as she wished, but her behavior over the years showed that she was just empty and beautiful, and she had no talent to become a phoenix and help a dragon.

That being the case, he wouldn't let Xia Lili drag the back legs of the drifting snow.

Qiu Guhan was silent for a while, and said: "The Ji family is loyal to the emperor, and it is no good to marry Lili to Ji Linfeng."

"What do you know" Xia Wusheng shouted, "It is precisely because the Ji family is loyal to the emperor, and Ji Linfeng has a deep love for Lili, after Lili marries, if the Ji family makes trouble for you and the Xia family in the future, Ji Linfeng will look at Lili's face and will not overdo it." ”
