226. Want to get married
Xiao Muze hurried back to the Battle King's Mansion.
When he saw the war king, he began to ask about what happened in the court today.
As a result, before the two of them could say a few words, the butler's voice came from outside the door.
The Lao family came to visit.
The Lao family is the maiden family of the princess of the war king, and it is the grandfather of the war king.
However, after the war king left the north, this connection slowly faded.
After the war king's maternal grandparents and maternal uncle passed away, the relationship was even weakerβeven the contact was severed.
It was still last year that the king of war returned to the capital, and the Lao family came to the door with their faces on their faces. The king of war thought of his mother again, and there were more contacts.
However, although this has come and gone, the Lao family's dissatisfaction with the king of war has also been revealed between the lines.
The reason for the dissatisfaction is in Xiao Muze's body.
Because the Lao family felt that even if the king of war wanted his son to retire and die, he should succeed the people of their Lao family, instead of picking up someone of unknown origin to inherit the throne.
However, the Lao family never thought about it, if it was about blood relationship, wouldn't the Xiao family be closer?
Emperor Qingping naturally didn't dare to hope for it, but the war king still had several cousins.
The sons of the younger brother's family are many.
Therefore, after the king of war heard the meaning of the Lao family, he ridiculed the head of the Lao family several times with a cold face.
Therefore, the Lao family became honest.
However, because of these unpleasantness, now the King of War and the Lao family are just going back and forth during the New Year's Festival.
Now, this is not a festival, how could the Lao family suddenly come to visit?
However, although I don't know the intention of the Lao family, I can't leave all the guests outside.
Therefore, the king of war still asked the housekeeper to invite the Lao family into the house.
Xiao Muze knew that the Lao family didn't like him, so he didn't want to appear in front of the Lao family, so he went back to the backyard and waited directly.
It just so happened that he could also take advantage of this to brush his thoughts.
It wasn't until the news came from the front yard that the Lao family had left that Xiao Muze went to the main hall to see the king of war.
Before stepping into the door of the main hall, Xiao Muze saw the war king holding a tea cup and pondering.
Although, the face of the war king was expressionless. However, Xiao Muze, who knew his father, still felt the anger of the war king.
"Father, what's going on?"
It's just that the Lao family is visiting, and my father has always been indifferent to them, so it shouldn't provoke him?
"It's not a big deal. It's just that I've seen some insatiable, fly-camp gangsters. The Lao family, I'm afraid there is nothing to do. β
The War King said coldly.
The Lao family is his maternal grandfather's family, and it stands to reason that they should be close to him.
It's a pity that his mother died early, and he was later inhumane because he was assassinated. Therefore, there is no hope of competing for the position.
Therefore, the Lao family secretly turned their heads to support other princes.
It's a pity that the prince didn't fight the rebel king, and was killed by the rebel king.
Therefore, the Lao family honestly shrank up.
It's okay like this, at least I didn't offend Emperor Qingping. Therefore, in this dynasty, the Lao family still has several official positions that are not in the stream.
Later, his maternal grandparents died, his uncle died, and now his eldest cousin is in charge.
The Lao family does not have any outstanding characters, so it is just ordinary in the capital.
But because it was his war king's foreign family, no one dared to bully him.
Originally, the Lao family was honest, and it would be good to wait for a useful talent to be cultivated in the future to prop up the lintel.
Unexpectedly, the Lao family still has a thief's heart and wants to stand in line in this dynasty.
Last year, the Lao family planned to marry a daughter of the Lao family to the third prince as a concubine, but he was stopped by knowing in advance.
This time, the people of the Wu Dynasty wanted to marry Princess Chaoxia to Mu Ze. He said that Mu Ze was married, and everyone thought he was prevaricating.
And after the Lao family got the news, they immediately came to the door and made a benefactor gesture, saying that they would marry the daughter of the Lao family to Mu Ze.
One is to act as a shield and round the lie of the war king in the court.
After all, at such a sensitive time, other families may not be willing to promise a concubine.
The second is that the Lao family is the grandfather of the king of war. And Xiao Muze has no blood relationship with the King of War, and he has no feelings with the Lao family.
Therefore, marrying the daughter of the Lao family can make the Xiao Lao family continue to have a family relationship.
The war king was afraid of his mother's face, so he politely refused.
However, after he refused, a cousin of the Lao family began to be dissatisfied.
Starting from his adoption of a child and not choosing the Lao family, it is said that Xiao Muze's identity is unknown and his bloodline is unclear.
From the time he didn't let the daughter of the Lao family marry the prince, to now he refuses to give the daughter of the Lao family the title of the princess of the war king.
And his eldest cousin, the head of the family, let the man say it without stopping it. This, obviously, is also his idea.
Speaking of this, the War King couldn't help but sneer.
"It's funny. If my son says kiss, aren't all the women in the capital at your choice? Do you still need them to make a gracious face? β
"What are you afraid of breaking off family relations, aren't you afraid that after you inherit the throne, you will not be close to their Lao family, and they will be even more ignorant in the capital?"
"What did you say to help me round the field, but it turned out that it was not the descendant of the head of the family, but the side branch. It's really sanctimonious. β
"A man with a large family doesn't want to do a good job in the imperial examination, practice martial arts and take the right path. Thinking about relying on women to go to camp? On that day, he gave up my mother to enter the palace, causing my mother to be assassinated and passed away early. Later, I thought about giving women everywhere. β
"It's just that they're in a hurry to stand in line, and they still want to force me to stand in line? They don't consider my current status, how can they openly take sides? β
The war king Xu was really angry, and Xu didn't need to shy away from Xiao Muze's son, so he said it one after another.
Xiao Muze quietly listened to the king of war talk about his own family, and he was embarrassed and didn't know how to persuade him.
Finally, when he heard the last sentence, he had to interject: "Forcing you to stand in line, where did this come from?" β
The Lao family wanted to take sides, and he knew it. However, forcing the king of war to stand in line, where does this start?
"They wanted to give their daughters to the third prince, but I stopped them. They took advantage of the time when I was not in the capital to secretly give it to the five princes. What is the banner of true love? Now, the daughter of the Nalao family is already the side concubine of the fifth prince. β
ββ¦β¦β
"I want to label the five princes in the name of the in-laws of the War King's Mansion. I really don't know what to do. The War King sneered again.
"The relationship between my father and the Lao family is well known. The saint will not think that you are on the side because of the Lao family. Xiao Muze comforted.
"Hmm. It's just a clown, not worth being angry about. The War King tried to calm his anger, "However, there is no need to prepare for this year's festival." You don't have to go to the New Year. β
Xiao Muze heard this, and hurriedly comforted the war king a few words.
Xiao Muze can understand, after all, it is the foreign family of the war king, and it is one of the few relatives of the war king in this world.
They don't follow the right path, they just want to rely on women to drill the camp, how can the king of war not be angry?
