Chapter 392: Wu Han's Family Affairs
Sangluo's life is very comfortable, but Empress Dowager Wu's mood during this time is not very good, the main reason is that she wants to find a good family affair for Wu Han.
But where is a good family so easy to find? The Wu family is the emperor's foreign family, and there is a queen mother and a concubine, she doesn't know the emperor's thoughts, but even if the Wu family has a Wu Feifei, the original glory of the Wu family has gone wrong, but the Wu family is still a first-class family in the capital.
Wu Han is the heir of the Wu family, and the Wu family will definitely fall into his hands in the future. The wife he chooses must at least be equal to his status.
But those families whose status is comparable to the Wu family are those families! In fact, the Empress Dowager Wu originally wanted to choose someone from the Gongsun family, although the Gongsun family is declining, but there are those family backgrounds. Moreover, if Wu Han marries the daughter of the Gongsun family, then Concubine De will naturally rely on her and the Wu family to do things in the future. Concubine Shu now has a prince, if this is ......
To say that Empress Dowager Wu is not distressed and does not like the eldest son of the emperor, it is false. This is her eldest grandson, and she naturally hurts to the tip of her heart. Cultivating the emperor's eldest son as a prince, she thinks it's not bad. However, as time went by, she began to feel that wouldn't it be better if the Wu family's belly could become the prince? People's hearts are biased, and the Queen Mother has done so much for her mother's family, so her heart is naturally biased. After thinking like this for a long time, she couldn't help but want to win more support for the Wu family. The Gongsun family has a background, and Concubine De has no children under her knees, even if the eldest princess is recorded in her name, but the princess always has to get married, is it difficult for Concubine Dao to want to be alone in the palace? Concubine Shu has two sons, as long as Concubine De can help the Wu family, when the time comes, one of the sons will take care of Concubine De more?
But she just told Wu Han about it, Wu Han refused not to say it, and then a series of unlucky things happened in Gongsun's family. First of all, Gongsun Ming, the eldest grandson of the Gongsun family, who was the most outstanding and most qualified to inherit the Gongsun family, died unexpectedly. It is no exaggeration to say that as soon as Gongsun Ming died, Gongsun's family basically collapsed in half. Fortunately, there is still a concubine to support her, otherwise the Gongsun family would have completely collapsed.
But following closely, the affairs of the Gongsun family continued. Empress Dowager Wu is not stupid, naturally she can see that someone is dealing with the Gongsun family. The Gongsun family now looks no different from the past, but in fact, the building is about to collapse, and the inside has decayed. Moreover, she also saw clearly that Concubine De was not close to the Gongsun family at all. A family that doesn't even have a decent heir may not be of much help to the Wu family.
But apart from the Gongsun family, which girl can be suitable for Wu Han? The Yin family is a good help, but the Yin family is all infatuated seeds, and they don't even have a room, so the heirs are naturally thin. Not to mention that the Yin family's generation has that one daughter, and she married out early.
The Meng family is an old force, and now it has become the hottest family. However, the Meng family has a queen and the eldest son of the emperor, and there is a conflict with the Wu family on the most fundamental interests, and Wu Han is categorically unable to marry the daughter of the Meng family.
She also thought about King Jing's Mansion, but it was a pity that the people in King Jing's Mansion were very cautious and were feared by the emperor. If Wu Hanzhen marries someone from King Jing's Mansion, I am afraid that the emperor's only remaining affection for the Wu family will be gone. So I just thought about it, and I didn't even dare to mention it.
The Zhou family is barely okay, but Zhou Yushi is a stone in a pit, and his temper is stinky and hard. And the Zhou family is a scholarly family, and the family background is a little worse. Although it was possible to indirectly get involved with the Yin family, but thinking about the grudge between Yin Sangluo and the deceased Wu Feifei, the Empress Dowager Wu could only sigh in the end, asked Wu Han's opinion, and eliminated the Zhou family.
"It's really not good, the Jing family can do it too." Empress Dowager Wu thought about it, and finally felt that Jing Yu, the daughter of the Jing family in the Criminal Department, was not bad. Although he loves to eat a little, his image is a little worse, but the Shangshu of the Criminal Department is also a person who can do practical things, and he is also valued by the emperor among this old minister. If you can win over the Jing family, it will be a good thing.
Wu Han is a few years younger than Mu Zhanbei, but now it's time to get married. He also understands that after thinking about it, this criminal department Shangshu is also a suitable candidate.
"Then the Jing family!" Wu Han nodded, left and right is to marry a wife, whether you like it or not is secondary, whether it will help you or not is serious. Jing Yu didn't look bad originally, but she had a reputation for loving food, and her figure was slightly fatter than that of ordinary women. Wu Han thinks this is quite appropriate, as far as he is concerned, he still prefers plump women.
settled on someone, and Empress Dowager Wu was also relieved. However, the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department is not a small family, so she can't ask people to agree to marry her daughter when she opens her mouth. Yes, the Empress Dowager Wu did not say anything, and invited someone to go to find out the wind first.
didn't think about it, the old lady of the Shangshu family in the Criminal Department was still there. Different from the rigor of the criminal department, Mrs. Jing is a kind old lady who laughs and is well-known for her good temper. But such a good-tempered old lady dared to risk offending the Queen Mother, and pushed this family business away with a smile, leaving no room for anything.
Of course, the old lady's words are still very good.
"Jingyu's girl has no ink on her chest, and that bit of talent is spent on eating and drinking, and the housekeeper is not at all. The head of the Wu family, I'm afraid that the girl didn't have that good life. ”
Listen, hear how good it is! Empress Dowager Wu listened to the echo and looked upside down, but she couldn't say half a typo at all. Jingyu loves to eat, just like Yin Sangluo is a domineering waste, everyone in the capital knows it. is from such a background, but he sneaks out of the house all day long, in order to eat all kinds of delicious food. This is full of capital, even if it is just the food in the small door of the alley, Jingyu can be like a treasure. But when it comes to what an ordinary woman from a family should know, I'm afraid she really doesn't know anything.
But even if she knew that she was rejected so directly, Empress Dowager Wu was still panicked.
Wu Han was only slightly stunned when he heard about it, but he didn't insist in the end.
He knew the person who was still in the Criminal Department, and it was originally the best thing to be able to win over, and it didn't matter if he couldn't get it. This result was actually expected by him. Of course, the Jing family would refuse so directly, which did surprise him, and he originally thought that the Jing family would be more tactful.
But thinking about how much Jing Yu was favored by the Jing family, he was relieved.
A person who can sneak out of the house to eat all day long without being punished, I want to know the degree of favor of this person. Now the situation of the Wu family is not good, and the person in the criminal department is an old fox, and he is definitely not willing to take the same boat with the Wu family at this time.
In the end, Empress Dowager Wu still had to worry about Wu Han's family affairs. Jing Yu's mind is very big, the Jing family has already refused, and when she went to King Jing's Mansion with Sang Luo and them a few days later, she mentioned this matter.
