"I'm afraid not." Zhao Yuanxun shook his head.

He felt that it was better to speak more clearly, lest Fu Yunkai come to say in two days that he was willing to wait for Zhao Ruxi to be eighteen years old.

"My daughter loves to draw, so she wants to find someone to fall in love with." He said.

In this way, Fu Yunkai should understand, right?

Sure enough, Fu Yunkai's face was a little pale.

Yes.

Many women of families are reluctant to marry soldiers. Because soldiers not only cannot stay at home, they need to be stationed at the border for many years, but also their lives are in danger at any time.

Miss Zhao Wu, since she is capable and beautiful, her status is not low. Who is it bad for her to marry, she has to marry a border soldier like him who will die without knowing when?

Fu Yunkai's mouth was full of bitterness.

He picked up the glass in front of him and drank it down.

"I see, thank you, uncle." He stood up, "Uncle use it slowly, and the little nephew still has something to do, so I'll leave first." Later, we will have time to meet for a drink. ”

As he spoke, he hugged Zhao Yuanxun's fist, turned around and went out.

Zhao Yuanxun let out a long sigh, sat there and slowly drank the wine in the wine glass, stood up and walked out, and instructed the restaurant guys: "Check out." ”

"Master, that master has already paid for the wine and food just now." Dude said.

Zhao Yuanxun glanced outside in a daze, sighed lightly, and beckoned his entourage: "Let's go." ”

Back at home, Zhao Ruxi had already eaten and was teaching Zhao Jingtai to paint in the main courtyard.

Zhao Yuanxun walked over, sat next to them, watched silently for a while, and suddenly asked Zhao Ruxi: "The family matter of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, you really don't think about it anymore?" I think Fu Yunkai is really good. ”

Zhao Ruxi had already guessed his mind when he was sitting here drunk and not speaking.

She shook her head and said, "No need. Just because he's good doesn't mean that this family business is good. ”

Zhao Yuanxun let out a long sigh: "That's the same." ”

He hadn't forgotten what his daughter had said to him last night.

He's just a little bit of a pity. It is really rare for a young man like Fu Yunkai to be so good in terms of personality and behavior, identity, ability, appearance and figure. missed it, he really felt sorry for his daughter.

It's good that her daughter can't recognize Fu Yunkai's excellence. If she is attracted to him, and knows that this family affair is inappropriate, not only is it not good for herself, but also for Bofu, her daughter will definitely be painful and entangled.

It's better to let this matter pass.

Zhao Yuanxun made up his mind not to mention Fu Yunkai in front of his daughter in the future.

Zhao Yuanxun and Fu Yunkai didn't know that after they went back, a gray-clothed man went to the courtyard of the Five Princes to listen to Taoxuan, and reported the conversation between Zhao Yuanxun and Fu Yunkai in the restaurant to Xiao Lingyan.

When Xiao Lingyan heard that Zhao Ruxi really rejected this family business, she couldn't help laughing, took out a gold ingot from her sleeve, and threw it in front of the gray-clothed man: "Well done, I'll reward you." ”

"Thank you, master." The man in gray saluted and withdrew.

Xiao Lingyan walked back and forth in the room twice, walked to the table and wrote a letter in German, and asked Xiao Liuzi to call another gray-clothed man to come and hand the letter to him: "Tomorrow, you will find a way to deliver it to Miss Zhao Wu." ”

"Yes."

Not long after the man in gray left, Xiao Lingyan was called to his courtyard by Xiao Lingpu.

Xiao Lingpu looked at his younger brother, and his face was full of the old father's relief: "You kid, you have grown up and are capable." ”

Xiao Lingyan naturally knew what Xiao Lingpu was talking about.

He pretended to be at a loss and said, "Brother, what's wrong?" ”

"Fu Yunkai went to propose marriage to Suiping Bofu, but was refused." Xiao Lingpu talked about this, and he thought it was incredible.

He asked, "How did you know that the Suiping Bofu would refuse this family business?" ”

As a person who needs to rely on the Pingnan Marquis Mansion to seize the throne, he naturally will not pay attention to Fu Yunkai's family affairs.

During this time, Fu Yunkai frequently invited Zhao Yuanxun to drink, not to mention him, he believed that the crown prince and several princes who were concerned about the movements of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, as well as some well-intentioned people in Beijing, noticed this matter.

He was very unhappy with Fu Yunkai's choice, no matter whether this family business was successful or not, it meant that the Pingnan Hou Mansion had its own careful thoughts. However, compared to other families, marrying Suiping Bofu was within his tolerance, so he secretly did not interfere too much.

At that time, Xiao Lingyan once told him that the Suiping Bofu would not agree to this family affair, so let him rest assured. When he asked why, he didn't say anything, just let him see the results.

Now the result is really what Xiao Lingyan said.

So he was very curious about how his brother analyzed and came to a conclusion.

"What's so unpredictable?" Xiao Lingyan spread his hands, "Even if Sui Pingbo can't figure it out, Zhao Wu girl can't figure it out, but doesn't that Zhao Wu girl have a master and a senior brother?" How could they possibly let Suipingbofu get into this pool of troubled waters? ”

He chuckled, "Mr. Deadwood has never been involved in these things. His three apprentices are also clear streams and never stand on the side of the faction. Because of this, the position of the official secretary of Wuhuai Temple can sit firmly, isn't it? Otherwise, people from any faction will have to be ripped off if they sit on it. ”

Xiao Lingpu shook his head: "If the Suiping Bofu goes to discuss with Mr. Deadwood, this family business will naturally not work." But I don't think they're going to think about it at all. There is not much difference in the titles of the two prefectures, but the status is very different. Not to mention anything else, the girl of the Zhao family married Yunkai, and it was easy for the boys in the Suiping Bo Mansion to find a position in the army, and it was not difficult to get promoted. Not to mention that Yunkai also looks like a talent, and his eloquence and ability are good, and he is a fast son-in-law in the eyes of the ladies in the capital. ”

"So I don't think the people of Suiping Bofu will see so far and think so deeply. Seeing Fu Yun open the door to propose, he would be flattered and agree. I didn't expect them to refuse. ”

He was a little curious: "I don't know if they have consulted with Mr. Deadwood, or if there are capable people in the house who can understand the situation." If I hadn't consulted with Mr. Deadwood, I'd have liked to meet the man in their house who saw through it. ”

When Xiao Lingyan heard his brother say this, his heart became proud for no reason.

Isn't Zhao Ruxi amazing? In her previous life, her mentor was slandered, but she found out the truth by herself, and set up a game for her opponent to make herself ugly, and returned her mentor's innocence.

Now that she has read this book, she has a general understanding of the entire situation in the court and a clear future direction. Isn't it right to see through the calculations behind these people at a glance?

But he can't tell Xiao Lingpu about this. He had no intention of arguing with his brother.

He picked up a piece of snack from the table, threw it into his mouth, and said triumphantly, "Anyway, the result is what I expected." ”

Xiao Lingpu glanced at him and didn't speak again.
