"Che'er, tell me, why did you marry that Gu Shiniang?" Huan Wen turned to Huan Che and asked, "Although you are a concubine, but you are the son of my Huan Wen, and now you are also famous in Health City, with your talent, being a father is to hire the daughter of Wang Xie and the two families as your wife, and it is not completely impossible?"

As far as I know, Gu Shiniang is not only a concubine, but her biological mother is also a criminal family, what is her merit? ”

After speaking, Huan Wen turned his gaze to Huan Che.

At this time, Huan Che slowly bowed to Huan Wen and replied: "Father, although Gu's Ayu's biological mother is a criminal family, my father should have heard of the phrase 'Jiangdong's hero, Mo Qiang Zhou Shen'?" ”

"Yes, the Yixing Zhou family in Sanding Jiangnan and the Wuxing Shen family in Jiangnan Wuzong were originally wealthy families in Jiangdong, and the prosperity of the family back then can be described as prosperous, but no matter how strong and prosperous it is, it is only scattered and ruined!"

Huan Che said: "So has my father heard that when Shen Shiju was in turmoil, his daughter entered the door of the Gu family with a ten-mile dowry, and some people even said that the ten-mile dowry was just the tip of the iceberg in those dowries......"

When Huan Che said this, Huan Wen seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up, and he said busily: "You mean, those dowries are now in Gu Shiniang's hands?" ”

The maidservant Ah Li, who came in with the Li family, quietly changed her face.

At this time, Huan Che nodded and said: "Yes, the original dowry was not in the hands of Gu Shiniang, but when he was in the Jin Tomb, it can be said that he was pushing the tide, and now these dowries have been returned to the hands of Gu's A Yu!" ”

Speaking of this, Huan Wen's face changed slightly, revealing the joy of Enlightenment and his appreciation for his son.

"So, the reason why you want to marry her is because of this rich dowry in her hand? However, since Shen Shiju's daughters can be concubines, why can't this Gu Shiniang enter my Huan family's door as a concubine? Che'er, do you think too much of her? He said.

Hearing this, Huan Che immediately shook his head and said: "Father, this matter must not be, back then, the daughter of Shen Shiju entered the Gu family as a concubine, and the reputation of the Gu family has been greatly damaged now, our Huan family must accumulate prestige, and we must not let the world criticize it because of such a trivial matter.

What's more, the son is just a concubine, marry her as a wife, and the son will not suffer! ”

As soon as Huan Che's words fell, Huan Wen burst out laughing, and with his loud laughter, his thick palm fell on Huan Che's shoulder.

"My son is not informal, and he will be able to take on great responsibilities in the future, so let's talk about it quickly! What are you doing on your knees? He said.

Huan Che got up at this time, thanked him, and sat down on the side of the collapse.

At this time, Huan Wen asked again: "Che'er, apart from the rich dowry that is the envy of the world, do you have any other reason for marrying her?" ”

Is it something else? Huan Che, who was asked about this, suddenly fell silent, but he felt a little sluggish pain in his chest, as if there was an invisible thread pulling him to do this!

Seeing that he was silent in thought, Huan Wen smiled again: "As the pride of Jiangdong, the Wuxing Shen clan, in addition to the wealth that is the envy of the world, does it have extremely powerful armed troops?" Are you a private soldier for this troop? ”

Huan Che's expression was suddenly stunned, and under Huan Wen's gaze, he bowed slightly, and admitted calmly: "What my father said is good, my son does have this heart!" ”

"My father has also heard of the strength of Wuxing Shen's armed forces, otherwise Wang Dun would not have chosen him as his powerful helper, but Shen Shiju's rebellion failed, and his troops were naturally greatly reduced, how many parts can be left in the world now, or willingly for this Gu family's eleventh mother to drive?"

After he finished speaking, Huan Che immediately asked: "Father, if you were Shen Shiju back then, would you really send the entire Wuxing Shen clan to Wang Dun?" ”

"You mean, when he made the choice to start a rebellion against Wang Dun, he also kept a hand for himself, or for his descendants?"

"Yes, father, my son has found out that Shen Shiju left a superintendent seal in the dowry of his daughter Shen Jiaoniang, and this superintendent seal should be able to gather 100,000 homeless people for his use!"

"One hundred thousand?"

Hearing this number, Huan Wen, who had tens of thousands of strong soldiers, couldn't help but stir, since Shen Shiju had such a powerful armed force, why was he defeated when he sent troops with Wang Dun to attack health?

At this time, Huan Che said again: "Father, many people now know about this seal left by Shen Shi's residence, so we can't let it fall into the hands of others!" ”

Huan Wen's eyebrows furrowed: "Yes, if this branch can be used by us, then the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains and the recovery of Luoyang will be just around the corner. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Huan Che again and asked, "Could it be that this Governor Seal is also in the hands of the Gu family's eleventh mother now?" ”

Huan Che pondered for a moment, and replied: "I'm not completely sure, but if there is this Gu family eleventh lady in hand, it will not be difficult to find the seal of the governor!" ”

At this point, Huan Wen laughed out loud and turned to the Li family and said, "Qingqing, do you still think that Che'er marrying that Gu Shiniang was impulsive?" ”

The Li family owed, and said with a soft smile: "The concubine naturally listens to the general's arrangement, but it's just ...... The concubine still feels that if you want to get this eleventh mother of the Gu family, you don't necessarily have to marry her! ”

"Oh, is there a better way?" Huan Wen asked again.

Li said: "With our Che'er's talent, the sisters-in-law of this healthy city don't know how many girls want to marry him, and there are not a few who are willing to give him a concubine. After that, he looked at Huan Che again, and his expression turned slightly, "Che'er is too worried!" ”

Huan Che's face changed slightly.

Huan Wen smiled again: "Qingqing still wants to hire a famous lady from the Health City as a housewife for Che'er?" ”

Li bent his lips, smiling and smiling.

"Father—"

Huan Che called, and when he was about to say something, Huan Wen interrupted again: "Qingqing wants to hire a famous and noble daughter for Che'er as a housewife, and Che'er seems to insist on marrying that Gu Shiyi Niang as his wife, it's better to do this, when I am free, I will also go to the school to take the test of this Gu Shi'an's talent, if she is really as Che'er said, she can be on par with my son, then, my father will ask Princess Nankang to come forward, go to Gu's mansion in person, and hire her as Che'er's wife, what do you think?" ”

Li's face condensed slightly, Huan Che breathed a sigh of relief, but when he looked up at Li, he saw the cold light in her eyes, and she seemed to be extremely angry.

After coming out of Huan Wen's study, Huan Che went straight back to his bedroom, and the maid Ah Li was about to change clothes and bathe him, when he received an order from the maid beside the Li family: "Madame asked Lang Jun to go to Jingshu Courtyard!" ”

Li's Jingshu Courtyard is located in the west courtyard of Huan's Mansion, and it is not too far away from Huan Che's residence, but in a quarter of an hour, Huan Che came to Li's courtyard.

As soon as he entered the hall, Huan Che felt an angry and stagnant atmosphere, the hall was very quiet, the servants were also driven down, Li was dressed in a white curved deep coat covered with a fox fur white fur curled edge, and was sitting on the top of the collapse table above the main hall, holding a tea cup idly.

"I've seen A-Niang!" Huan Che saluted.

Li Shi threw the tea cup steeply on the table, changed his tenderness in front of Huan Wen, and said sternly: "Do you still know how to call me Auntie?" I thought you went to Yuquan Mountain and no longer recognized me as your mother? ”

"How so? Why is A-Niang so angry? ”

Hearing him say this, Li Shi was even more angry, and couldn't help but get up and walked in front of him, and said with a sad and aggrieved face: "I have painstakingly cultivated you for many years, from the moment you were born, I have been careful in everything I do, and I am always on guard, so that you can grow up safely to this day, Che'er, how much effort I have spent on you, how difficult it is for our mother and son to go all the way, do you know?" ”

"Yes, I know, and I understand the pain in A-Niang's heart!"

"But why do you have to marry that Gu Shi Niang? She Gu Shiniang is just a concubine, whether it is the Shen family or the Gu family, it is impossible to become her support and help, and I heard that when you went to Yuquan Mountain, you also encountered an assassination, this person who assassinated you is her, isn't it? ”

"A-Niang, why do you want to marry her, I have already told my father about it, and you have heard it......"

Before he finished speaking, Li Shi glared at him sharply, and said angrily: "I don't care if she has a rich dowry in her hands, she wants to be unfavorable to my son with this person, how can I rest assured that she will stay by your side?" ”

Huan Che's gaze turned sharply to the servant girl Ah Li on the side, and under his gaze, the servant girl's face turned pale, and she hurriedly knelt down: "Lang Jun, forgive the slave for saying too much!" “

At this time, Li also interrupted: "You don't have to blame her, Ah Li was originally a female official of my Shu Kingdom, and it turned out to be your grandmother and my mother's personal maidservant, I let her stay by your side, the purpose is to ensure your safety, and to report your whereabouts to me, which is her duty!" ”

Huan Che secretly clenched his fists, and suddenly smiled: "A-Niang, don't you still believe me?" How can a sister-in-law who is less than fifteen years old be my opponent? If I want to get her dowry and the tribe's private soldiers, I must first get her people! ”

What else did Li Shi say, and listened to him continue categorically, "I know what you are thinking, A-Niang, if you take it by force, it is not guaranteed to be foolproof, if you accidentally force her to death, we will not get anything, so, what is better than letting her hand it over willingly?" ”

This sentence successfully blocked Li's mouth, making Li look stunned and thoughtful.

At this moment, Huan Che said as if soothing: "Ah Niang, I know that you want to restore the country, but the restoration of the country also requires considerable manpower and financial resources as a backing, isn't it?" ”

Li's heart jumped, and she couldn't help but look sideways at her son, she really wanted to restore the country, but she never dared to say the word "return to the country" directly, in order to prevent the wall from having ears, she never said it to her own son.

"But that Gu Shiniang ......"

"Auntie, don't worry, since I can survive the calculations and assassinations again and again, I will definitely not die at the hands of a sister-in-law!" At this, he smiled again, and said, "And can't I make her fall in love with me?" ”
