Dengzhou, the backyard of Zhou's mansion.|Among every two people who watch romance, there is an account that has registered for Ke ° Le ° Xiao ° Say ° Net. √∟,
This is where the relatives of the wealthy businessman Zhou family live, and the decoration is exquisite and luxurious, and even the maids who can enter and exit are carefully selected. The style of clothing on his body all reflects the pomp and circumstance of one of the richest businessmen in Dengzhou. Don't say that ordinary dignitaries and nobles can't be compared, even if they are compared with the palace of the royal family, they are not inferior.
Seeing this qiē in the past, Zhou Tianrui's mood was often very good, and he was proud of the gold and silver sea he was sitting on. But this time, after returning from the banquet in Chen Wu's Governor's Palace, he couldn't help but feel a lot of trouble, and his face was a little depressed.
Opposite him, sat two ladies, his eldest son, and several high-ranking cousins in the Zhou family.
With Zhou Tianrui's status and the wealth he has, there are really not many things he can't solve in this world. But this time, Zhou Tianrui met one, so there was frustration on his face. That is, he lowered his face and personally asked Chen Wu about the meaning of marriage, but was politely rejected by the other party!
This is the young lady of the super-rich Zhou family!
With the countless fields and properties owned by the other party in Dengzhou, marrying this young lady almost immediately became one of the upper circles of Dengzhou, and instantly had a wealth that could not be spent in several lifetimes. I even heard that this Miss Zhou family is very favored by Zhou Tianrui, and she is also a beautiful girl, not only beautiful, but also proficient in piano and chess, and she is really a fairy coveted by countless people.
It is true that among Miss Zhou's competitors, it is not that there are no competitors who look better. For example, the Wei Chi family in the Eight Great Lords has the idea of marrying a daughter, and they have a lot of laughter and grudges, and directly write off the grievances of the former Governor Wei Chichang who was pulled off the horse and turn the conflict into a jade silk. However, what the Wei Chi family wants to marry is not the daughter of the long house. Although the dowry given is not bad at all. But the sincerity is definitely not as good as the Zhou family.
However. Such a good thing was not negotiated in the end. The difference between a wife and a flat wife happens to become one of the few unsolvable problems in Zhou Tianrui's countless wealth!
"If you don't marry, you won't marry, people don't look down on us, why should our Zhou family have a hot face and a cold ass!"
It was Zhou Tianrui's original room that spoke, and his voice sounded a little yin and yang. But the Zhou family was not surprised, but no one cared.
Everyone knows that this main room has long been unfavored. Since the second lady married into the Zhou family. The status of the main room plummeted. If it weren't for the fact that the second lady of the Zhou family only gave birth to a young lady - that is, the protagonist of this marriage, but had another son, I am afraid that the status of the main family would have been lost long ago.
"Mother is right! What the governor of Songjiang is nothing more than a mud-legged traitor. Our Zhou family is so rich, and if he is willing to marry a daughter, he is a guy who can afford him and don't want to give face. ”
Zhou Tianrui's son shouted, with the same angry face. However, the voice sounded a little lacking in breath, and with his pale face due to excessive wine, it was not convincing in the slightest.
Don't be angry!
Zhou Tianrui looked at this son who eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and has everything. I couldn't help but sigh helplessly in my heart.
The second lady sitting next to her also felt the same way, and she was really worried that this sister-in-law of the Zhou family would ruin Zhou Tianrui's property in the future. But then again. If it weren't for the fact that this concubine of the main room was too unsuccessful, and he wanted to replace him, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy......
Thinking like this, she said, "Master, in the opinion of the concubine, you still have to try your best to fight for it." If it really doesn't work, it's okay to give up more benefits. If the Zhou family can be tied to this governor, the future of our Zhou family will really be limitless, and it will be a matter of time before it becomes the level of the Eight Great Lords - or even surpasses. ”
Two ladies, two very different attitudes.
Zhou Tianrui looked at his favorite second lady, sighed, and said, "You still haven't understood, it's not a question of the amount of dowry at all, but people don't look down on us." Even if half of the Zhou family is taken out, people are only willing to give a flat wife. The governor's heart is great. ”
"Father is right."
Miss Zhou Jia, wearing a brocade dress with a beige embroidered collar, walked in from the outside with a little shyness. Although there were no outsiders present, and she herself was not too introverted, after all, the topic involved someone who almost became her husband, and she would inevitably be a little embarrassed.
As early as when Chen Wu had just entered Songjiang County, designed to annihilate the defenders in Daqing Pass in Dawangzhuang, and successfully attacked and captured Daqing Pass, Miss Zhou, who happened to pass by Qingpingji, heard the name Chen Wu, and after two or three years, she has been paying more attention to this governor, and she knows a lot about this governor, and said at the moment: "The identity of my daughter, I am afraid that I will not be able to sit in the position of the queen." That Governor Chen wants to wait for the price and sell, fishing for the concubine of the head of the Eight Great Lords, or the princess of the dynasty! ”
"The concubine of the head of the Eight Great Lords, the princess of the dynasty?"
Miss Zhou's unsuccessful brother screamed: "How come! What a noble status the princess of the dynasty is, how can she marry at will? What's more, that Chen Wu is a thief, how could the saint push his daughter into the fire pit today! ”
"The concubine of the Eight Great Lords is indeed unlikely." Zhou Tianrui spoke slowly, making Zhou Gongzi's face happy, mistakenly thinking that his father also supported his point of view, but Zhou Tianrui immediately changed his words, making him dumbfounded: "The existence of the gate valve has been troubled for a long time. Looking at this Governor Chen, he has a lot of cooperation with the gate valve on the surface, but in fact, he is on guard and suppress. If you really let the daughter of a certain gate valve become the queen, I am afraid that the new foreign relatives class will be too big to lose......"
With Chen Wu's style of acting, it doesn't seem like someone who can't think of this!
"As for Qianyuanji, he is reluctant."
Zhou Tianrui paused, sneered and patted his son on the shoulder, shook his head and said, "You are still too superficial, haven't you heard of the word ruthlessness in the heavenly family?" If it really comes to the time when it is necessary, don't talk about a princess, even if you marry several princesses together, as long as you can keep the dynasty of his family, there is nothing impossible! ”
"How could it be ......?"
Zhou Gongzi's face was obviously a little sluggish, and he was frightened by his father's frivolous and arrogant remarks. As if he had suddenly thought of something, he was overjoyed and retorted: "However, today's queen is from the Song family of the Eight Gate Valves!" ”
"The two are not the same thing at all."
Zhou Tianrui was a little too lazy to explain, Qian Yuanji was the fourteenth emperor of the empire, and the power of the court had already formed a balance, and whoever became the queen could not affect it too much. But if Chen Wu can really open a new dynasty, what kind of behemoth will a gate valve that has established the merit of the dragon from now on develop into a new pattern?
No one could have imagined it!
"Don't talk about what works and doesn't work." Zhou Tianrui's wife in the main room also knew that her son was too unsuccessful, so she quickly shifted the subject back and reiterated: "In short, unless the governor is willing to give the position of the main room and marry our daughter, I will never agree." ”
Even if she is a flat wife, she has a better reputation, but in fact, it is almost the same as being small. The dignified and wealthy Zhou family, how can they be upside down? What's more, if you really let that Miss Zhou marry, her mother is expensive with her daughter, and the second lady with strong support is afraid that it won't be long before she drives herself down.
How can this work!
It's not that the second lady doesn't understand her careful thoughts, but although she is a shrewd woman, her vision is still a little smaller after all. He hesitated for a moment and said, "If the governor refuses to give the main room position, then if you don't marry, you won't marry...... Let's call the shots, sir. ”
Not only the two ladies, but also the other clansmen of the Zhou family were mostly opposed.
After all, the difference between the main room and the flat wife is too great!
Seeing that almost all of his family members were opposed, Zhou Tianrui was already a little hesitant, and he couldn't help but fade away. And he also knows that even if he owns the three counties and even the Omanis are driven away, it does not mean that the other party will really be able to go to the end. For now, the Qianyuan Empire is still a behemoth and has the name of orthodoxy. Although it looks declining now, maybe in a few years, the new emperor will be able to rejuvenate the dynasty and sweep away those ghosts and ghosts.
At that time, Chen Wu could only obediently bow his head and be his governor of Songjiang.
Thinking like this, Zhou Tianrui felt a lot less regret in his heart. It's just that deep down, he is a little uneasy after all, maybe he will miss a lot of this decision! After all, even if it is the position of a flat wife, there are only two!
………
The few complaints and small twists and turns in the Zhou family's inner house did not reach Chen Wu's ears. Or even if there is any gossip that comes out, he doesn't care too much. In his eyes, the Zhou family is just a good candidate among many marriage partners. Since the other party refuses to give in, then put it on hold for the time being.
Anyway, he is still very young, even if the issue of heirs is very important, he is not in a hurry for this year or two.
In contrast, the issue of the other person's heirs is more important.
The Great Prince!
Eight years after the wedding, several of the prince's main and side rooms were very unhappy, and they gave birth to several daughters in one go. It wasn't until the wedding card was sent that he finally had his first son, and this was also the first grandson of Qianyuanji!
The fifth prince is much younger than the eldest prince, and although he has already gotten married, he has no heirs yet.
The appearance of this son is extremely important to the eldest prince.
Before this, there had been rumors in the palace that the old emperor had the idea of setting up another after the abolition. Although the little eunuch who spread the word the next day was dragged out and beaten to death, it is difficult to say that this is completely a rumor. Things in the palace can never be trusted, but sometimes there is no wind and waves.
However, the appearance of the first imperial grandson is of great significance to the status of the great prince and the Qianyuanji.
The old emperor's body obviously can't last too long, if the fifth prince hasn't been able to give birth to a son before the old emperor controls the dragon Bintian, is that ......
Qian Yuanji, who had already made a decision and even wanted to start working, fell back into hesitation because of the appearance of this imperial grandson. (To be continued.) )
