Volume 1 Above the Temple Chapter 96 Love Values Transcending the Times
Mu Qiuhuang didn't stay in the Taishi's Mansion for too long, and he got up to say goodbye after staying for less than an hour, Situ Luqi reluctantly sent the two to the door of the mansion, although he had the intention to keep the two for a while, but he also knew that today was different from the past, Mu Qiuhuang would have to go to the feast of the Son of Heaven later, so he had to make an appointment with Mu Qiuhuang to meet next time. At this time, Mu Qiuhuang also knew Situ Luqi's intentions clearly, not to mention that when he met Situ Buqi in the study just now, he also heard a little bit of Situ Buqi's words from between the lines that he wanted to marry Situ Luqi to him. As I said before, the same thought, Situ Buqi implied in a fog that he could comprehend it instantly, but if he rested on Situ Luqi and didn't explain it to the fullest, even if he spoke nine out of ten, he might not be able to comprehend, this is not that he is pretending to be confused in front of Situ Luqi, but he really can't comprehend.
However, after learning that Situ Buqi also had this kind of thought, he regretted that he had just come here. It can be said that if he can marry Situ Luqi, his advantages are even greater than that of marrying with Xiliehou Mansion, and the benefits of marrying Xiliehou Mansion have been said before and will not be elaborated here, but there is one point that has not been said, that is, the overall strength of Xiliehou Mansion is on par with Beiyu Marquis Mansion, and they also have their own heirs, and the marriage between the two sides is more of a strong alliance of interest exchange...... To put it mildly, if the world is in turmoil in the future and Beiyu and Xilie can stand out and stay in the end, there will definitely be a battle between the two, which is only related to the general trend of the world and cannot be reversed by the private feelings of children.
And the Taishi Mansion is different from the Xilie Marquis Mansion, Situ Buqi has no son, only this only daughter, and even if Situ Buqi has a son in the future, it doesn't matter, after all, the Taishi Mansion has no army in his hands, and he has lost the qualification to sit in the world by virtue of this alone, and the battlefield fight in the troubled times still has to rely on swords and guns after all. In other words, if he really becomes the son-in-law of Taishi Mansion, Situ Buqi will definitely bet all his net worth on the Beiyu Army to assist him with all his might, and what is the advantage of Taishi Mansion? That is the countless disciples and protégés left by the old lady Situ Changqing after three dynasties, how big a network of relationships does this have? Moreover, Situ Buqi once met many talented people when he entered the court as an official, and those who have the ability to turn all these talents together in one place do not think about others except Situ Buqi, the only son of the old lady.
Beiyu has never lacked people who can fight well, and the army of 300,000 tigers and wolves has never been afraid of the battlefield, but what is really lacking is these powerless readers. And at this time, this opportunity is placed in front of Mu Qiuhuang, as long as he becomes the son-in-law of the Taishi Mansion, he can accept one person and enjoy the world, and through Situ Buqi's network, the vast majority of talented scholars will be included in Beiyu, and at that time, Beiyu will inevitably include the world's talents...... Even Mu Qiuhuang suddenly thought at this time that the reason why his father Mu Qingen would agree to his divorce at the beginning, but he wrote to him to take the lead in visiting the Taishi Mansion after entering the imperial capital, which was to save this idea.
The reason why he didn't tell him was because it was because of the conversation between their father and son that night, Mu Qingen had experienced his age, and Mu Qiuhuang loved her mother even more...... So that the feelings for his son are pure to the extreme. It is said that the emperor's family has no family affection, but when Mu Qingen treats him, he is not the marquis of the lord of Beiyu, just like the old father of an ordinary family treats his son, and is even more tolerant than that...... This is Mu Qiuhuang's great luck.
……
"Childe, childe......" Su Xiaoxiao found Mu Qiuhuang standing motionless in the heavy snow, and couldn't help but whisper a few words.
"Ahh Only then did Mu Qiuhuang react, and noticed that Su Xiaoxiao was looking at him with worried eyes, his face and hands were even more red from the cold, his hair and clothes were already covered with snowflakes, and the umbrella that Su Xiaoxiao was holding was all covering his body.
Mu Qiuhuang smiled apologetically at Su Xiaoxiao, touched his nose and said, "I was a little distracted just now, let's get in the car!" ”
After the two got into the carriage, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but rub her frozen hands and asked softly, "Childe, what were you thinking just now?" The distraction is so serious. ”
"It's nothing ......" Mu Qiuhuang responded lightly, but he didn't want to answer more, but he just handed the stove in his hand Su Xiaoxiao.
After Su Xiaoxiao took the stove, she glanced at Mu Qiuhuang affectionately, and said coquettishly: "Childe is so good." ”
Mu Qiuhuang, who was half-lying in the carriage, couldn't help but think of the incident just now.
The more his father Mu Qingen treats him so leniently, the more he can't be too selfish in everything as the young master of Beiyu, and maybe he should also consider the overall situation. What's more, not to mention that he can go further in the future, even if he has three wives and four concubines in his current identity, it is purely normal, I believe that even if he takes Ji Ruoxue or Situ Luqi, he will really meet someone he likes in the future and then accept him as a concubine, these two people will not say anything? After all, the times are like this, not to mention the princes and generals, even ordinary businessmen and gentry, but who has a little status and the ability and financial resources, who only guards a wife and does not accept a concubine? Even if there is a fierce wife in the family, how many people know about raising a few bread outside the house? Among the princes throughout the ages, only one wife can be guarded, and only Mu Qingen is the only one who dares to refuse the emperor's favor for his second hand...... Even when Mu Qiuhuang looked at Su Xiaoxiao, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind, why don't you really marry Situ Luqi? And then put Su Xiaoxiao into the room? Even he thought of his four personal maids, spring peach, summer lotus, autumn frost, winter snow, these four people and he grew up since childhood, in terms of posture and appearance, they are also the best choice, just pull one out can be ashamed of the world's Oiran...... If you are greedy for beauty, why not put all these people in the house?
It's just that soon Mu Qiuhuang smiled self-deprecatingly, which may also be inherited from his father Mu Qingen, who always thought that love should not be like this.
If you really took Situ Luqi, it was because you valued the forces behind the Taishi Mansion and accepted a few others, it was because you coveted their beauty...... can't talk about having love for them, this is irresponsible to each other.
In a conversation with his father before, he said: Utilitarian marriage is irresponsible to each other, and if there is no love and is simply united for the sake of profit, there is no happiness at all.
Now he understands what kind of person he is going to marry as a wife in the future.
He wanted that person to be his first sight, not after carefully weighing the pros and cons, and felt that it was suitable for him.
To be honest, Mu Qiuhuang's idea may be very immature, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is even naïve. It can be said that this kind of thinking of his is incompatible with this era...... But what happens in the future? Will he change his mind in the future...... But at least at this time, this is the most primitive and true thought in his heart.
……
"Childe...... Son. Su Xiaoxiao whispered again.
"Huh?" Mu Qiuhuang turned his head and smiled, and said leisurely: "Am I distracted again?" ”
"What's bothering Childe?" Su said tentatively in a small way.
Mu Qiuhuang looked at Su Xiaoxiao, and suddenly an idea popped into his mind, and asked with interest: "Xiaoxiao, what kind of man are you going to find as a husband in the future?" ”
"Of course, it's to find a man like Childe to be a husband." Su Xiaoxiao replied without thinking.
"Uh......" Mu Qiuhuang couldn't help but have black lines on his head, and there was a little joy in his heart for Su Xiaoxiao's answer.
He looked at Su Xiaoxiao, and Su Xiaoxiao was also looking at him.
Mu Qiuhuang really didn't expect Su Xiaoxiao's answer to be so bold? Doesn't it mean that women should generally talk about this kind of thing? However, he soon remembered that Su Xiaoxiao was not the kind of young lady from the family, she could become the "feather" in the "swallow foot" at a young age, and everything she experienced was not something he could imagine.
He remembered that he once talked to Su Xiaoxiao about her life experience, when Su Xiaoxiao told him that he was an orphan and was adopted by Dong Che Hou, and the purpose of Dong Che Hou to adopt them was self-evident...... When ordinary children are still coquettish and intimate in front of their parents, Su Xiaoxiao still doesn't know what arduous ordeal he is experiencing? Even take himself as an example, although he also received harsh training in the barracks at the age of seven, but the essence of the two is different, he is in order to be able to better take over the family business of Beiyu in the future and become the master, while Su Xiaoxiao is exempt from the punishment for the sake of whether he can eat that day and whether he can behave well. And the original purpose of Dong Chehou's adoption of Su Xiaoxiao's young girls was not to let them join Yanzu, but to train them as pets, so that they could sell their bodies to entertain people in the future...... Su Xiaoxiao is one of the others, in order not to be willing to become a man's plaything, she has paid a hundred times more effort than others since she was a child...... was valued by Dong Chehou, and felt that it was a bit condescending to let people like her sell her beauty, so she was finally able to get rid of her own destiny and no longer have to sell her body...... Among the five people of the original "Yanzu" Palace, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu, she is the only woman.
……
Thinking of Su's small life experience, Mu Qiuhuang couldn't help but have a trace of pity in her eyes when she looked at her.
Su Xiaoxiao saw that Mu Qiuhuang didn't speak for a long time, and she quite understood the pity in Mu Qiuhuang's eyes, but she didn't want Mu Qiuhuang to pity, she had her pride.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but open her mouth to interrupt Mu Qiuhuang's contemplation: "What about Childe?" What kind of woman will be able to enter the eyes of the son in the future? ”
Mu Qiuhuang didn't answer Su Xiaoxiao's words, laughed, and suddenly said playfully: "It turns out that you like this son?" But you have to know that a man like Ben Gongzi is destined to have three wives and four concubines to linger in the flowers in the future, don't you mind? ”
Su Xiaoxiao naturally knew that with her identity, even if she was favored by Mu Qiuhuang, she would not be able to get the position of the main wife, and when she thought of this, she suddenly said seriously: "If you are favored by the son, you will be willing to be a concubine." ”
"Ahh
Facing Su Xiaoxiao's naked heart, Mu Qiuhuang suddenly regretted what he had just said, and said with a smile: "If you don't love this son wholeheartedly, this son will not marry you, but if you love this son wholeheartedly, and if this son can't love you wholeheartedly, you will inevitably feel guilty...... So you still don't covet the beauty of this son anymore, and in the future, this son should find a wishful husband for you. ”
Mu Qiuhuang's words were a little tongue-twisting, but Su Xiaoxiao understood them all, in order not to embarrass the two of them, Su Xiaoxiao deliberately laughed and said, "Haha...... Childe, you look really funny when you're serious, Xiaoxiao was just joking with you, Xiaoxiao don't want to look for Langjun? Men are all stinking ......"
"Haha...... You're right, stinky men, stinky men, men are stinky, but this son doesn't stink? Mu Qiuhuang also deliberately played haha.
Su Xiaoxiao also laughed and said: "Well, Childe doesn't stink, Childe is the most fragrant......"
"However, what you just said, Childe, is really a bit ahead of this era!"
