"Everything else is easy to say, but one thing is that the Overseers have no heirs, which is what everyone is worried about. I wonder if the Overseers have ever thought about this? ”

Qiu Zeyuan pondered for a moment and said: "Actually, I have been thinking about this matter for the past few days, it is impossible for me to have any more sons in this life, so I want to choose heirs from my cousins and nephews as soon as possible and take them as my heirs." I looked through the family tree, and my grandfather had fifteen sons during his lifetime, including three sons-in-law and twelve concubines. The eldest son died young, the second son died in battle, and there were no children at the time of the war, and the father was the youngest son, except for the ...... Except for the two concubines who were killed in the Shuoji Rebellion, the other ten concubines were divided into various parts of Pudong. I think so, since I no longer have a living uncle, the difference between my heirs and concubines doesn't matter when I choose an heir. I would like to make the difference between the eldest and the youngest as a condition for me to choose a successor, and all children under the age of three are eligible to be selected, because such a young child has no memory, and I may not miss my biological parents when I raise them as adults, and I have very little risk of making a wedding dress for someone else. At present, there are only twenty-six of my cousins and nephews who are under the age of three, otherwise I have as many as fifty-seven cousins and nephews who are still alive. Besides, if you want to be separated from your parents and children, your parents may not be willing to pay this price, and these twenty-six will be reduced again. After that, I will personally select these young children, and it will be enough to keep five of them with me. What do you think? ”

Tong Fengyi was pressed back by his father as soon as he could speak, Tong Guangting looked at Qiu Zeyuan approvingly, and said, "The overseer's consideration is very thorough, so leave this matter to the old minister." ”

"If you can get your uncle's help, there must be nothing wrong with this."

Tong Guangting said with a smile: "The overseer has a good reputation, so I'll go and invite the twenty-six young masters and their parents to Yejin and block Youyou's mouth first." When the Overseers return victoriously, the Overseers will decide what to do. ”

Qiu Zeyuan bowed his head, and Tong Guangting asked again: "Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, what are the plans of the overseer?" ”

"The foreign enemy has not been eliminated, my father has been newly mourned, and I may not return home tomorrow, everything is simple." Qiu Zeyuan's worries hung on his eyebrows again.

"The Overseer's words are inappropriate, you have been tired all these days, you have not been back to your house for five days, and you will not go out tomorrow, so go back to your house to rest for a while, otherwise Dai Wei should worry about you again." Saying that, Tong Guangting glanced at his son.

Of course, Tong Fengyi understood what his father meant, but he still felt worthless for Dai Wei.

Qiu Ze saw Tong Fengyi suddenly lowered his head and said with a smile: "What's the matter, Feng Yi?" Tired of staying up with me for so many days? Then you can go back to your house and rest tonight. Soon after you got married, I detained you, which is indeed a bit unkind. ”

Tong Fengyi distinguished: "What nonsense are you talking about? Uncle Qiu has just passed away, and I still have to keep filial piety for him......"

Tong Guangting intercepted his son's words and said, "The Overseer is considerate of you, you can step back after thanking you, why do you need to say more?" ”

Tong Fengyi knew that his father wanted to take him back to the house, and warned him again, not allowing him to take care of Zeyuan and Dai Yi's affairs, and his heart became more and more unhappy, and said, "Father, Ze ...... The Overseer and I have a lot of politics to do, so leave us alone. ”

Qiu Ze saw that the father and son were about to quarrel over this trivial matter, and hurriedly said: "Feng Yi, it's late today, and I'm a little tired, you go back to the house to rest." ”

Tong Guangting didn't wait for his son to argue again, and after asking Qiu Zeyuan to resign, he directly pulled his son out, Tong Fengyi hurried before his father opened his mouth and said: "Father, I know you want to warn me to stay away from Dai Yong again, I swear that I don't want Zeyuan to adopt a stepson this time It's not for Dai Yuan, Zeyuan is still so young, he shouldn't cut off his children and grandchildren for a woman who has died, it's unfair to him!" ”

Tong Guangting snorted coldly and said with a smile: "Fair? As the head of the Tong family, you can still say such childish words! Where is the word fairness in this world? You were born rich and noble, and some people were born low, and everyone has nothing fair to say from the womb of their mother's womb, and you are still talking about fairness here? You don't want to think about it, is Zeyuan's private matter the biggest, or is the war on the border bigger? Even if he marries and has children now, it will be a year before he sees this child, and it may not be a boy. Can these old ministers in Yejin wait? Even if we can wait, can so many people in the dire situation in Xinjiang wait? If the heir is uncertain, Zeyuan will not be able to go on the expedition. If he doesn't fight in person, how can he suppress the overwhelming enemy army?! You are already the financial secretary of one person and more than 10,000 people, can't you make such a simple choice?! Or do you think I haven't completely let go and you still have a way out? ”

Tong Fengyi really lowered his head in shame this time, Tong Guangting opened the car door and said: "You have stepped up a few days, someone from the He family is coming on the second day of junior high school, no matter how busy you are, you still have to show your face that day." ”

As soon as Tong Fengyi wanted to ask who from the He family was coming, Tong Guangting stepped into the car and drove away, leaving Tong Fengyi alone, surrounded by the dust and smoke......

After He Yanjun sent away his mother and sister who came to visit relatives, he saw Tong Fengyi changing clothes, stopped him and asked, "You just came back and want to leave?" Haven't you finished your government affairs yet? ”

Tong Fengyi said while wearing a round hat: "Yes, today I am busy to go home to see my mother-in-law and little sister, Zeyuan is still waiting for me in the Overseer's Office, I have to leave quickly, what is there to wait for me to come back." ”

He Yanjun hurriedly blocked the door, closed the door, turned around and said, "You listen to me first before leaving, you don't know how many days it will take to come back." One of my deceased people is critically ill, and I want to go back to Ying'an to see him. ”

Tong Fengyi looked at He Yanjun's uncertain face, vaguely guessed who it was, and said after a moment of silence: "Yes, but you have to be careful not to be noticed by people who shouldn't be discovered." Do you have someone you can trust? ”

He Yanjun originally thought that she would return to her parents' house soon after she got married, and she needed to spend a lot of words with Tong Fengyi, but she didn't expect Tong Fengyi to agree without saying a word, and she couldn't help but feel a little throbbing in her heart, and only nodded.

"Then you can go out of the house with me, and you can save a lot of trouble." Tong Fengyi took his wife's windbreaker and handed it to her, and when he saw that she was still stunned, he couldn't help but say, "What are you doing in a daze?" When I went out with me, I told my father that you and I had not seen each other for many days, and that I wanted you to stay with me at the Overseer's office, and that he would not have to interrogate you about your whereabouts. Before everyone notices, you'll be back tomorrow morning. ”

He Yanjun woke up like a dream, and hurriedly changed his clothes and walked out of Tong's Mansion with Tong Fengyi openly......

When Tong Fengyi saw He Yanjun again in the early morning of the next day, she and yesterday were like two people. Although the clothes are still the same as yesterday's jujube frost flower windbreaker, the people inside are distracted and their appearance is messy, especially the apricot eyes, which are swollen and unshapely. Tong Fengyi was extremely glad that there was no one else left and right, and hurriedly helped his wife back to the room, and locked the door with his hand.

Tong Fengyi handed a cup of warm water to He Yanjun, but He Yanjun stared at the water and muttered, "He's dead, he's dead......"

Dou Da's tears slipped from He Yanjun's eyes like this, and fell on the hand of Tong Fengyi, who was also holding the water cup, although he knew who the person in his wife's mouth was, but he didn't feel anything about that person, and he didn't have any hatred, because he didn't love his wife at all, He Yanjun was at most a poor person who shared his illness in his eyes. They are also cowards who abandon their loved ones and marry strangers who are otherwise irrelevant. Imagine what would happen to him if Dai Wei had gone ahead of him? He couldn't imagine the pain to the bone......

"Why wasn't the one who died? I'm the damn one! Why did he let me live well until he died? How does he want me to live? Carrying his death forever, will you live well? I'm a murderer! He Yanjun knocked the glass of water to the ground, and the crystal clear fragments were like their lost love, and it was difficult to reunite.

Tong Fengyi wanted to help his wife, who was sitting on the ground crying, to get up, but He Yanjun beat him hard like crazy and asked, "Why do you want to marry me?" There are so many women in Pudong, why do you want to marry me?! ”

Tong Feng Yi avoided her gaze with a weak heart, but heard her cry and laugh again: "And why should I marry you?" If I hadn't married you, his illness wouldn't have worsened so quickly, and he wouldn't have died so quickly. If I hadn't married you......"

He Yanjun can't say any more, there is no such if...... He is dead, and you killed him......

Tong Fengyi hurriedly grabbed He Yanjun's hand that slapped her wildly, and finally calmed her down, but heard her murmur again: "Father said that if I don't marry you, the Overseer will destroy my He family for disobedience, and he will also take Hanwen's life before then." I married you for the life of someone I love...... But now that I'm married to you, I still can't save Hanwen's life......"

Tong Fengyi mourned in his heart, I also married you for the life of the person I love......

"Why am I Ho Yaohua's daughter? Why should I cost my life for my family, and why ......"

Tong Fengyi heard He Yanjun say and lost his voice, and was busy testing his wife's snort and pulse, knowing that she was still alive, he breathed a sigh of relief, and before he could place her on the couch, there was a knock on the door, "Director Tong, the overseer sent his subordinates to ask why you haven't come to the council hall to discuss the matter?" ”

Tong Fengyi hurriedly responded: "It's here, you go back and ask the Overseer to wait for a while." ”

……

When He Yanjun woke up, it was already dark, but her mind was much clearer than in the morning, she actually said so many words to Tong Fengyi without scruples that were enough to destroy the He family, they had only been married for a month, why did she put her heart into him?

"Are you awake......" He Yanjun looked out the window, completely unaware that someone pushed the door in......
