Chapter 63: There is a female Zhen Jiang
Jian Yong's words caught Liu Tao off guard, how could he talk about the marriage? Liu Tao, who only wanted to get ahead, and then saved some money before the world was in chaos, really didn't take the matter of marriage into consideration...... At least I didn't think about marrying a wife during this time.
"Lord!" Jian Yong saw Liu Tao frowning, so he further persuaded, "Although the two families show goodwill, they are 'outsiders' in the end, so when they consider problems, they often tend to their own interests." If you want to change this situation, you must first let the two families change from 'outsiders' to 'their own people', marriage is the best, the most direct and the most effective way! β
Although marriage is such a thing, sometimes when needed, you can turn your face and deny it. But it is not denied that in this era, through the method of marriage, buttons and maintenance of the relationship between the two families abound.
Let's just say that the marriage between the Changshan Zhang family and the Zhongshan Zhen family has begun since the end of the Western Han Dynasty, or even earlier.
"Marriage, marriage is good!" Lu Yan also agreed, if they got married, the two families would also be regarded as 'their own people', so they could naturally be more assured to use.
Since LΓΌ Buwei, the idea of 'goods in the world' or 'gambling on the world' has taken root in the hearts of some giants. It is that in troubled times, there are always merchants with strange goods to live in. For example, Chen Liu, a wealthy businessman, Weizi, went bankrupt to fund Cao Cao's army; Another example is the Hanoi wealthy businessman Zhang, who funded Sima Yi, and his daughter Zhang Chunhua married him.
Liu Bei was originally funded by Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, and later had the Mi family, and after entering Shu, Mi Zhu's status was especially above Zhuge Liang; Zhen also funded the Yuan family, Zhen Mi once married Yuan Xi as his wife, and later changed to fund Cao Cao, and Zhen Mi even became the queen. At the same time, although Wei's Weizi died, Ziwei Zhenguan was promoted to Situ and was named Marquis of Changyuan; Sun Ce's occupation of Jiangdong was also supported by the Gu family and the Lu family, and Gu Yong and Lu Su were both Sun and Wu heavy ministers.
Liu Tao didn't think about it so deeply, and his understanding of history was not so thorough. The key is that the two most trusted ministers both proposed to marry, and they were a little shaken.
"We're going to beg for thieves now, and we're marrying halfway, isn't it appropriate?" Liu Tao is still a little worried.
"But let's get married first, and then say that my brother is already twenty-three, and he hasn't married yet, it's really not decent." Lu Yan persuaded him.
"Don't talk about me, you're not like that yourself?" Liu Tao directly retorted, "Xianhe too!" β
"Ha, I'm a poor man, who looks up to me?" Jian Yong said self-deprecatingly, before he became the master bookkeeper, life was tight, and the only books he copied were worth a few books at home, who would look up to him.
"I'm married!" Lu Yan is different, "The year before last, my father set a family affair for me in Luoyang, and I was going to get married this year, but who knew that Zhang Jiao was in turmoil and had to postpone it." β
"Speaking of which, my father seems to have made a marriage for me...... It's just that I pushed it off. Liu Tao thought about it for a while, and in his memory, Liu Yuanqi really married him, which was three or four years ago.
It seems to see that he is stubborn, and plans to let him get married, and see if he can settle down after starting a family. At the same time, since this generation does not count on it, then at least look at the generation of grandchildren. Liu Deran was naturally unwilling, and made a fuss for a long time, and finally the family affair came to an end.
is Liu Bei, under Liu Yuanqi's operation, he got married three years ago, and his son has already babbled.
"In this case, the lord may wish to consider it!" When Jian Yongyan heard this, he immediately further advised, "The marriage is not only to settle the hearts of the two families, the key is to turn the passive into the active, so that the lord has the right to take the initiative to take over the supply of materials......"
Will Jian Yong consider the dirty things of men and women? Perhaps, but for now, it must be from the perspective of making contributions!
Lu Yan saw that the marriage could strengthen Liu Tao's bond with the two families, so that the two families could wholeheartedly fund him to make contributions. Jian Yong saw further, and the material supply was provided by the two families, and naturally they were also controlled by the two families. But after the marriage, Liu Tao had an excuse to intervene and strive for more initiative.
"If the lord feels that his career has not been accomplished and it is not good to start a family, he can also make a marriage first, and after two years, the yellow turban thief will be calmed down, and it will not be too late to settle down and get married." Seeing Liu Tao's hesitation, he continued to persuade.
Liu Tao suddenly felt that Jian Yong, the number one lobbyist under Liu Bei, was so much like a matchmaker at the moment? The problem is that he has so much truth that there is really no room for rebuttal......
"Why don't you go and find out the two families, and then tell your brother?" Seeing that Liu Tao hadn't made a decision yet, Lu Yan stepped forward to make up for it.
"How can a husband start a family before he has made a contribution......," Liu Tao coughed lightly, "Let's discuss with them first and see if we can get married." β
"Yui!" Seeing that Liu Tao had agreed, the two immediately said goodbye and left, and went out to prepare.
Of course, he didn't forget to get down to business. Since it was not good to go south to Julu County immediately, he asked the Zhang family to come forward and send a letter to Lu Zhibu on the Wei County side. While greeting them, ask how they should cooperate.
Lunu County did not fall, which was a bit unexpected by him. The city that was thought to be the most difficult to fight has now become a place for them to rest, and the feeling of being surrounded by friendly troops is really indescribably reassuring. This way south, in the first few days, I didn't sleep well at night, for fear that when I was asleep, a yellow turban thief suddenly appeared.
At night, the night wind howled, blowing the surrounding woods "whooshing", only to feel that the surroundings were moving, and the wind was roaring. In such a situation, it is impossible to sleep at all.
"Whether it's a march or a war...... Seeing that there was no one around, Liu Tao leaned against the wall next to the bed, "Sure enough, you have to adapt, it's not a month or two, you can do it." β
Modern people have little contact with war, and for most people, the battlefield is too far away from them. Yes, I originally thought that I would never be exposed to war in my lifetime...... Liu Tao lay down on the foot again, thinking about it, and actually fell asleep.
Two hours after I got up again, I woke up almost suddenly.
"How long did I sleep?" Liu Tao wiped his forehead, wiped the cold sweat off his head, and then muttered in a low voice. Walking out of the room, the soldier in charge of the guard told him that the military advisor had just come not long ago. At the same time, there is no need to remind that the feeding is ready.
"I'll go find the military advisor first, and then use it when I come back." Liu Tao didn't have the appetite to eat, so he went directly to Lu Yan.
"Brother doesn't rest longer?" Lu Yan seems to have had dinner and is checking the map at the moment.
These are maps of various counties and counties in Jizhou, which have been collected by the Zhang family and the Zhen family for many years. In the battle in Jizhou, the existence of Yutu is very important, especially as a military advisor, Lu Yan must be remembered.
"I can't sleep, I heard you've been here, so I'm here to take a look." Liu Tao was also not polite and sat in front of him.
"Brother, the combination of work and rest is the king, and now the environment is quite stable, you should take care of your energy." Lu Yan heard the words and persuaded.
"It will take me a while to get used to it, and it's not easy to switch between wartime and normal mentality." Liu Tao shook his head.
"That's true...... Lu Yan didn't expect that starting from Zhuo County, he would hit Lu Nu so quickly, "By the way, I talked to the two families before, and they just started, and the two seem to have been prepared...... Not to mention the Zhang family, Zhen Yi has the eldest daughter Zhen Jiang, who is in the prime of her life...... If you have time, why don't you meet him?
