Chapter 61 The Marriage Contract
Han Qiantian returned to the house in the dark, and saw that his father Han Daoxun had returned from the Hongwen Pavilion, and walked over and said that Xinchang Hou Li Pu would recommend him to the history of the assassination of Xuzhou.
"The history of Xuzhou thorns?" Han Daoxun glanced at Han Qian suspiciously, then pinned his hands behind him, looking towards the last glimmer of sunshine in the sky that was gradually engulfed by twilight.
Han Qian knew that his father was puzzled by such a crisp and neat decision over there.
Yes, if it weren't for his intricate entanglement with the Late Red Mansion and the Marquis of Xinchang's Mansion, no matter how big the role of "Epidemic Water Shu" was, before his father personally ran over to pay allegiance, it would be impossible for him to fall on his father the Xuzhou Thorn History, which they had to fight for at a great cost, and it would be impossible for him to be young enough to be in charge of a Sicao under the Longque General's Mansion?
The secret Cao Zuosi will not surface for the time being, but the Marquis of Xinchang will use all his strength to push his father to the post of Xuzhou Assassin, and his father and son will be officially branded as the third prince.
Han Qian believed that his father would definitely be able to think of this, so he changed the topic and said: "Xuzhou is full of dangerous mountains and rivers, miasma and poison, and the people's feelings are complicated. ”
"You just told me about this, and you didn't even have half a cup of tea, what can I think?" Han Daoxun smiled, "You want to divert the topic, there is no such divergence, right?" ”
Han Qian touched his head embarrassedly, and said, "The Marquis of Xinchang agreed to come down, and to promote this matter, it will definitely be very fast, at least before the Anning Palace comes back to its senses, and this matter will be implemented." ”
Han Daoxun also understood, and thought in his heart, when the Anning Palace and the crown prince came back to their senses, and linked this matter with the fact that he sent advice to expel the hungry people and the Marquis of Linjiang came forward to settle the hungry people to form the Dragon Bird Army, etc., then the people of the world may see him as the kind of villain who will do anything to seek fame and fortune and join the three princes, right?
"Alas," Han Daoxun never wanted to be involved in the matter of the succession, but found that he couldn't struggle in the end, so he couldn't help but sigh and asked Han Qian again, "There are no other requirements from the Marquis of Xinchang?" ”
"Not really." Han Qian said.
Han Qian knew that the Marquis of Xinchang must have expectations for Xuzhou, but Li Zhihe didn't mention it today, mainly because Xuzhou was too remote, and it could only be used as an idle chess player at this time, and it was difficult to place too many expectations.
However, when the Anning Palace and the crown prince came to their senses, they might not think so.
"The local chronicles say that Xuzhou has seven mountains, two rivers and one field, Miao Yi lives together, the local people are contradictory, and the land of the three counties is more vast than Gyeonggi, but the Dingkou sum is less than Gyeonggi No. 1 Middle County, and it is not easy for my father to make a difference in the past." Han Do-hoon said.
Han Qian has only recently had the energy to study the situation in the state and county, and his image of Xuzhou is relatively vague, only knowing that it is a miasma where birds don't, but the specific situation is far less familiar than his father.
At this time, Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo ran in to report something.
Han Qian took the opportunity to divert the topic and talked to his father about the arrangements of the secretary Cao Zuosi and the soldiers in the house: "His Royal Highness has allowed me to set up a new secretary Cao Zuosi under the general's mansion, and I plan to keep Fan Dahei and Lin Haizheng to help me in Jinling; Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo went to Xuzhou with their father. In addition, my father went to Xuzhou to take up a post, and I didn't know how many years I would have to stay, so that Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo would also move their families over, so that they would not be scattered, and I could also free up more space here to house Zuo Si's secret spy ......"
Han Qian wants to separate the family soldiers and the children of the family soldiers for arrangement, and then he also needs to use Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo to establish contact between Jinling and Xuzhou, so the existence of the secret Cao Zuosi cannot completely hide from Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo, so he simply finds out some things first.
Han Daoxun didn't see that Han Qian was thinking about the distribution of family soldiers for a while, so he nodded and agreed.
He went to Xuzhou to serve, and most of the officials and bureaucrats of the prefecture and county were held by local indigenous leaders, and some official positions were hereditary from the previous dynasty, and Emperor Tianyou had no intention of destroying the traditions there and making the southwestern border of Great Chu unstable.
Han Daoxun thought that he needed the help of his descendants to do things, but he didn't bring a large group of people over, but Han Qian officially helped the three princes to do things, and what happened was dangerous, and there were more people who needed to be trusted.
Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo listened to Han Qian's words, but they were a little stupid, except that yesterday's incident happened a little too suddenly, which made them a little frightened when they think about it now, the house has been quiet after the year, why did the head of the family suddenly want to go out of the place, and the young master has to officially take charge of Si Cao for the third prince?
"......" Fan Xicheng and Zhao Kuo were stunned for a moment and looked at each other.
"What do you have to say about rushing back?" Han Qian asked.
"Han Jun's side, before night, he mobilized a group of people from Chizhou to enter Jinling City, and there were almost forty or fifty good men." Fan Xicheng said.
When he and Zhao Kuo learned about this, they were a little panicked, afraid that there would be casualties if they caused another conflict, and they also thought about rushing back to discuss with the head of the family how to deal with it, thinking about persuading the young master Han Qian to be patient in the future, otherwise even if the old master was gone, they were far from being qualified to fight with Han Daoming and Han Daochang, but they didn't expect to rush back and hear such news.
They suddenly found that even though they had seen enough surprises in the young master Han Qian these days, it seemed that they were still far from seeing through the young master Han Qian.
Don't talk about Zhao Kuo, Fan Xicheng couldn't help but think: Is there anything related to yesterday's incident when the head of the family came out of Shixuzhou and the young master was able to take charge of a Si Cao from the third prince?
"I saw this when I came back with Lin Haizheng and Fan Dahei, so there is no need to worry about this matter," Han Qianhun didn't care about this, and saw Lin Haizheng, Fan Dahei, and Zhao Wuji standing in the courtyard, and said, "You guys prepare and accompany me to the villa in a while." ”
Now the whole Linjiang Marquis Mansion is busy with the big wedding, and they don't have to stop at night, but Han Qian doesn't have the heart to run over to join in the excitement.
Since the secretary Cao Zuosi has been authorized to start, he must race against time to spread out the stall as soon as possible, so that it is possible to recover one more disadvantage.
Zhao Ting'er poked her head in from the corridor at this time, Xu told her that the meal was ready, and when she saw that the secrets were being discussed here, she was about to shrink her head and walk away, Han Qian also called her: "Ting'er, you also go to the villa with us at night." ”
"What are you doing at such a late hour?" Zhao Ting'er opened her red sandalwood lips, and her beautiful black eyes like paint stared at Han Qian in a daze, thinking that the young master must have something important to do when he went out of the city at this time, and he didn't know what he wanted her to do with her?
"I don't want to use you as a bed warmer." Han Qian said.
Hearing Han Qian's words not serious, Zhao Ting'er's little face was red with shame, and a pair of beautiful eyes were about to stare back, but he saw that the head of the family, Fan Xicheng, and Zhao Kuo all looked at him with some surprise, and he also knew that it was too abrupt and presumptuous, so he spit out his fragrant tongue, bowed his head and stood there without saying anything.
"The young master is nineteen years old this year, shouldn't the master send the old slave to Wang Xiang's house to take a trip and marry Miss Sun of Wang Xiang's family to the young master as soon as possible - Miss Sun of Wang Xiang's family will also turn sixteen this year, right?" Fan Xicheng laughed and asked Han Daoxun.
Zhao Ting'er is the slave maid in Han Qian's room, both of them are in their youth, even if something happens, it is normal in Fan Xicheng's opinion; And if Zhao Ting'er has children in the future, she will of course become Han Qian's concubine.
However, the poor and lowly in the world did not intermarry, which was not only a matter of concept, but also a matter of clear provisions in the imperial court decree. If Han Qian dares to marry cheaply and let people denounce him, he will be deprived of his official status.
Fan Xicheng didn't realize at this time that the place where the head of the family, Han Daoxun, came out, and it was a matter that would soon come to fruition, and he felt that the master should decide the young master's marriage before leaving Jinling.
Otherwise, the young master would be by the side of the third prince, and the old man would not know that he would be able to return to Jinling to preside over this matter until the year of the donkey.
Wang Jixiong?
Hearing Fan Xicheng say this, Han Qian was slightly stunned, he had a marriage contract with the granddaughter of former Prime Minister Wang Jixiong, but he had never heard his father mention it.
Han Daoxun waved his hand, asked Fan Xicheng and them to retreat first, and said to Han Qian: "Three years ago, Wang Shi went to Guangling to raise grain and grass, saying that his second son had a daughter in front of his knee who was very smart, and he joked that he would give you a wife, and Xicheng was also present at the time. It was never mentioned again. ”
Although there is no sixth appointment ceremony, a character like Wang Jixiong will never joke about the marriage of his juniors.
Han Qian and Miss Sun of the Wang family have never met, so naturally they will not have any thoughts and losses, and asked with a smile: "Daddy drove the hungry people away at the court meeting a few years ago, annoying Wang Jixiong, and this marriage ended without a problem?" ”
"That's not the case," Han Daoxun sighed lightly, feeling that he was a little sorry for Han Qian in this matter, and said calmly, "I just took you to Jinling, and the prince sent his family over to urge you to complete the marriage, but because my father saw that you were not good, he was afraid that he would mistake others, so he refused the matter." After that, he expelled the hungry people for his father, probably really annoyed the king, and he didn't even say a word. ”
"In this way, this is Daddy, you owe me a daughter-in-law." Han Qian said jokingly.
"You son of nonsense, what do you owe your father to you?" Han Daoxun found that he didn't know it, and there was no way to put up the serious face of the elders in front of his son.
He no longer has the slightest doubt about Han Qian's knowledge and ability, he is worried that he is soft-minded, and his mind is not focused on helping the world and the people, but he is too scheming, but now is not the time to worry about this, wave him to eat, and go back to the villa before late at night to plan for business.
