Chapter 816: Persuade

Sure enough, Du Jinning was right, and less than half an hour after Du Jinning left Du Mansion, a matchmaker came to the door to ask for Du Jinning to marry Du Jinning, the grandson of Jiang Qigongzi, the grandson of the head of the Jiang family.

Du Jinning was the focus of everyone's attention in the capital, and as soon as the matchmaker from the Jiang family came to the door, everyone was in an uproar and discussed.

When Du Fangling learned this, she was even more stunned, and her eyes were full of admiration when she looked at Du Jinning.

She didn't admire Du Jinning's clever calculations, but admired Du Jinning's ability - with Du Jinning's experience, it is conceivable that a large wave of rumors is coming, if she didn't suspect that Qi Muyuan and Du Jinning have feelings for each other, she would be worried that Du Jinning would not be able to marry in this life. But I don't want the identity of a woman to come out, and the Jiang family will come to the door to propose marriage.

The Jiang family. Although the Jiang family is not comparable to the extinct Zhang family and the weak Zhao family, this kind of big family is also an unattainable wealthy family for the people of the small family. What's more, it is the grandson of the Jiang family who is asking to marry.

Du Jinning shook his head and sighed: "It is not unreasonable for the Jiang family to survive. The head of the Jiang family is a powerful person, and he is willing to be cruel to himself. ”

"......" Du Fangling looked sideways.

"And what are you going to do?" She asked.

"What are you going to do?" Du Jinning looked at her in surprise, "Do you really want me to consider this family business?" ”

"Not really." Du Fangling replied very simply.

She's not stupid.

Just look at the days she spent with Du Fanghui. Life in the family is not so easy.

With the Jiang family's head, many people reacted, and after a while, the people who came to report the news were busy like spinning tops: "Young master, the Ministry of Industry Camp is Zheng Yu Deli sent someone to ask for relatives." ”

"Young master, the host and guest of the Ministry of Rites, Qing Servant Shilang, Zhongliu Kanglu, sent someone to ask for his son's marriage."

"Young master, Wu Deming, a member of the household department, sent someone to ask for marriage."

“……”

According to the plan, Qi Muyuan should not have too much contact with Du Jinning during this time, so as not to let the news that Du Jinning is a woman be discussed on the "relationship between men and women". But the waves of people who came to ask for relatives made Qi Muyuan completely unable to sit still.

Knowing that Du Jinning would not be able to agree to these suitors, but he could speed up the implementation of the plan and get the beauty back as soon as possible, Qi Muyuan was naturally happy to see it come to fruition.

He instructed Guan Qi: "You send someone to the palace and tell your grandfather that many people are asking Du Jinning for marriage." ”

"Yes."

Qi Bokun was discussing with Zhao Yu, and when he heard that his family was looking for him, he came out of the palace with Zhao Yu and asked Guan Qi, "What happened?" ”

If it weren't for the fact that human life was at stake, the family would not have gone to the palace to look for someone.

Watching chess is afraid that others will not be able to do this well, so I came in person. He said Qi Muyuan's words.

Qi Bokun was stunned for a while, but he instantly figured out the twists and turns.

He said, "You wait a minute." ”

Turning back to the palace, he told Zhao Yu about the situation and said, "Since the emperor wants to give Du Jinning the position of the eldest princess, it is better to reward it now, so as not to make those people have dirty thoughts." ”

Seriously, after Zhao Yu met Du Jinning last night, although he knew that it was not a wise choice for Nadu Jinning to enter the palace, but at that moment's heartbeat, he still couldn't let go of Du Jinning, and he always felt that if things dragged on, things might take a turn for the better.

Nowadays, so many people are not afraid of gossip to come to the door to ask for marriage, which makes him suddenly have a certain idea. Can he ignore the rumors and comments and include Du Jinning in the palace?

Qi Bokun saw that his face was in a trance, and he was silent for a long time, and he couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart. As for what bad premonition was, he didn't have time to break it down.

He called: "Your Majesty." ”

When Zhao Yu came back to his senses, he said: "Those people came to ask for relatives, just because they took a fancy to Du Jinning's merits. Du Jinning can't be an official, so her future credit will inevitably be given to her husband. The emperor thought about it carefully, and according to the merit theory, Du Jinning was given the status of princess, which had no influence on the court. But if the credit is given to her husband or even her family, I'm afraid that something will go wrong. After all, what kind of reward should be given for such a great achievement? Given to a villain who relies on a woman to ascend the throne, the emperor is not comfortable in your heart, right? ”

He raised his head, his voice was high, and his emotions were a little excited: "Moreover, in the heart of the minister, although Du Jinning is a woman, her wisdom, ability, mind, and loyalty are no less than those old guys like Weichen. Everything she has done for Da Song deserves everyone's respect. But the emperor looked at what kind of dogs and cats came to the door to ask for marriage. The Jiang family has a big plan, and wants to marry Du Jinning to negotiate terms with the emperor, and don't talk about him; Just look at what the Ministry of Industry is doing, the son of the host and guest of the Ministry of Rites, the Qing official Shilang, and the head of the household department, who is not a sesame petty official, a good-for-nothing prodigal, or a widower who is nearly forty years old! ”

"If the emperor doesn't say a word, he just watches these people come to the door to insult Du Jinning. I don't know what Du Jinning thinks, but only the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the people are afraid that they will be cold. Your Majesty, this matter can't be delayed any longer. ”

Zhao Yu opened his mouth and wanted to ask, "Why didn't Qi Muyuan come to the door to ask for a kiss", but before the words reached his mouth, he swallowed it sensibly.

He knew that as soon as these words came out, he was afraid that Qi Bokun would be separated from him.

The Qi family came to the door to ask for marriage at this time, wouldn't it be the same as those rats in the dog and fly camp? The Qi family is also a big family, and Qi Bokun will definitely not damage the family's reputation because of Qi Muyuan alone, which is too selfish.

And at this time, it is not only bad for the reputation of the Qi family, but also bad for Du Jinning.

With the friendship between Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan, the Qi family came to ask for marriage, and Du Jinning was bound to agree. But at the cost of marrying into the Qi family at the cost of damaging the reputation of the Qi family, how will she deal with herself as a wife of the Qi family in the future? This will not only make the Qi family criticized, but also her own children and grandchildren, and will be humiliated in the future.

So at this time, Qi Muyuan could never come to the door to ask for relatives.

The only good way is to give her the identity of the eldest princess in the palace. As soon as this identity came out, everyone knew the emperor's attitude, because of his promotion and the noble status of the eldest princess, where did those dogs and cats dare to show up?

Moreover, if you think about it carefully, there are no people close to the Zhang family and the Zhao family among these courtiers, and their intention is nothing more than to humiliate Du Jinning in order to avenge the Zhang family and the Zhao family being implicated.

Thinking about this, he knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer. Otherwise, no matter how high his status is in the future, he will never be able to exchange her gratitude and loyalty, which is inconsistent with his original intention.

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was clarity in them.

He stood up: "I'll go to Ningshou Palace." ”

Qi Bokun took a deep look, retreated, and followed Zhao Yu out of the hall, and he retreated. And Zhao Yu went to the Empress Dowager Zheng.

Not long after, Empress Dowager Zheng summoned and announced that Du Jinning entered the palace to meet her.
