After Zuo Wei finished speaking, she was about to turn around and leave.

"and many more."

Zuo Ye groaned in his heart, if he dared to tell his wife, would he still need to beg you?

In his heart, he was a little afraid of guilt.Although I have been wandering outside for a while, do you want to take it home?

Zuo Ye really didn't dare to imagine that scene, what would happen at home?

"What? Father, is there something else to do?"

Zuo Wei stopped, looked at her father and said.

"Wei'er! My father has regarded you as the apple of his eye since I was a child, so can't you help my father?"

Zuo Ye was moved with emotion and reason, hoping to make his daughter stand by him.

"No, my daughter can help my father with anything, but this is the only thing I can't do."

"My daughter doesn't want to see her mother sad, and she doesn't want to see her family not being harmonious."

Zuo Wei rejected his father right on the spot without any hesitation.

"Wei'er, being a father also has difficulties!"

Zuo Ye failed at one plan, and started to move on to the next step, wanting to come up with a bitter plan.

Difficulties?

How can taking a concubine still involve difficulties?

Zuo Wei looked at Zuo Ye suspiciously and said, "My daughter would like to hear more about it."

"Wei'er! As a father, he is now an official in the court, and in the court, many things are unavoidable!"

Zuo Ye frowned and said with a wry smile.

"What? As an official, is it possible that His Majesty forced you to take a concubine?"

Zuo Wei curled her lips, looked at her father who was acting, and said unhappily.

"That's not it."

The corner of Zuo Ye's mouth twitched, what kind of joke are you kidding, why would His Majesty pay attention to such a crap about himself?

"The daughter doesn't understand, what does it mean that the father is forced to do so?"

Zuo Wei seemed to be a curious baby, looking like she wanted to ask the end of the casserole.

"Wei'er, look at all your colleagues, which one is not a group of concubines and a basket of children?"

"Every time my father goes out to socialize, even if the grade is lower than that of my father, I feel a lot shorter than others."

Zuo Ye said with a heartbroken look.

Zuo Wei finally understands, is it just out of vanity that her father wants to take a concubine?

It seems that the officialdom has been a big dye vat since ancient times. No matter what kind of people walk in, they will change completely.

In this circle, if you are an outlier and different from others in every way, then wanting to blend into this circle is nothing more than a dream.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups.

"My lord father, in order to integrate into the officialdom, you spend your days and nights out, singing and dancing. Even though mother is angry, she will not be unreasonable and unrelenting."

"We all understand that it's not easy for you, but you still want to take a concubine. Isn't this putting salt in your mother's heart and adding trouble to your family?"

Zuo Wei sighed, trying to persuade her father to give up this unrealistic idea.

Although this is an era when men are superior to women and women are weak, there are still some outliers.

Just like my own father, fearful of guilt...

Father has been running around for many years, busy with business.

The family affairs and property accounts are all handled by the mother.

Perhaps because of the influence of my aunt, my mother is also a talented woman with outstanding abilities.

When she married her father back then, her natal family also gave a large sum of valuable dowry, so the Zuo family was able to make a comeback from the lonely family.

"How do you say that? Others can take concubines, so why not be a father? Could it be that being a father is not a man?"

Zuo Ye suddenly became angry and said very unhappy.

Zuo Wei felt a little headache. She shouldn't have gotten involved in this kind of thing.

It's just that my father insisted on pulling me in, so it's not good to break up unhappy now.

Before Zuo Wei could speak, the door of the study was opened, Madam Zuo walked in from the outside and said, "Who wants to take a concubine?"

Zuo Ye shuddered suddenly, looking at him with unkind eyes, piercing his heart like a sharp knife.

"Ma'am, why are you here?"

Zuo Ye quickly cleaned up his messy thoughts, and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Well, you are old and not ashamed. Now that you are an official, your wings are stiff, aren't you?"

"I still want to take a concubine, okay!"

"If you are ungrateful, then you should divorce me!"

Mrs. Zuo looked at Zuo Ye who was coming towards her, and grabbed Zuo Ye's ear quickly.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, ma'am, take it easy."

Zuo Ye was grabbed by Mrs. Zuo's ears, grinned in pain, and hurriedly begged for mercy.

Zuo Wei looked at the tough old lady, and at the funny-looking father, and couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing.

"Madam, let go, is my daughter still there?"

Hearing his daughter's laughter, Zuo Ye immediately felt a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly said.

"Humph……"

Mrs. Zuo glanced at her sneering daughter, snorted coldly, and let go of her hand.

Zuo Ye suddenly seemed to be pardoned, and rushed out a few steps in a row, a few meters away from Mrs. Zuo, before he felt relieved.

"Ma'am, you heard it wrong. No one wants to take a concubine. Absolutely not. If you don't believe me, you can ask Wei Er."

After Zuo Ye finished speaking, he immediately looked at his daughter for help.

"Is that right?"

Madam Zuo looked suspiciously at her daughter and said.

"Yes, the father will never dare, the daughter promises."

Zuo Wei's small head is like a chicken eating rice, and deliberately bites hard.

Zuo Ye really wanted to find a hole in the ground and get in. When will he be big these days?

Others have three wives and four concubines, hugging left and right, how come it is so difficult for me?

"My natal nephew is here, so don't stay here, go out!"

"You can't lose your etiquette. My brother passed away early, and my sister-in-law also went not long ago."

"In the past few years, after my sister-in-law left, Berkshire Roche has become more and more declining."

"Hey!"

Mrs. Zuo seemed to be talking to herself, and left the study after she finished speaking.

Zuo Ye was thoughtful, his wife told him this!

In the early years, the Zuo family did indeed inherit the great favor from Luo's mistress Qing.

Today, I am afraid that this young man who inherits the Luo family's lord is not just here to visit relatives and friends!

Chapter 222 How can the general trend of the world allow you, a woman, to overthrow

Chengtian Hall of Xianyang Palace...

"Sir, Zuo Wei, the general secretary, pays homage to His Majesty."

Zuo Wei was wearing a special court dress, but she looked heroic, and bowed to Ying Zheng who was sitting on the throne.

"Exemption."

"I heard that you have a generous gift for me?"

Ying Zheng's eyes shone with a deep light, looking at Zuo Wei below, with a faint smile on his face.

Zuo Wei waved her hand towards the distance, and soon a group of servants came up carrying a heavy loom.

Immediately, everyone in the hall looked at this scene, pointing and discussing one after another.

They are no strangers to this loom, but how about giving it to His Majesty?

Although this textile machine looks a bit weird and has a unique shape, is it too inappropriate?

This is?

Only Ying Zheng, looking at this exquisitely designed loom with closely connected gears, was dazed.

In particular, the barrel on the side attracted his attention even more.

As if by magic, Zuo Wei touched this weird loom.

Then it made a roaring sound, and the huge gears began to rotate, pushing those small gears.

In this way, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the unmanned textile machine began to operate by itself.

Everyone's jaws dropped in shock, and everyone's eyes almost popped out.

What the hell is this?

"Hahaha!"

Looking at this scene, Ying Zheng laughed loudly.

small steam engine...

The thing that I had been dreaming about had finally come out.

Everyone was stupefied, and they didn't know why His Majesty was happy.

They are still wondering why this unmanned loom works by itself?

Just scratching their heads, they are still confused.

"Did you make it?"

Ying Zheng stopped laughing, looked at Zuo Wei, and asked solemnly.

"Return to Your Majesty, I have lived up to His Majesty's great trust, and I just succeeded a few days ago."

"It's just that there are many places that need to be improved, and mass production is not yet possible."

Zuo Wei was also very happy, after all, she made it with countless painstaking efforts.

"Don't worry, don't worry, take it step by step."

I have been waiting for so many years, and I am not short of this effort.

Ying Zheng smiled, looked at Zuo Wei, and added, "Thanks for your hard work."

"Being loyal to His Majesty and serving the empire is the duty of a minister, so there is no such thing as hard work."

Zuo Wei felt warm in her heart, with just three words, she felt that her hard work in the past few years was not in vain.

"I want to reward you well. What do you want? Whether it's high officials and rich salary, gold, silver and jewelry, or silk and satin, servants and mansions, I will not be stingy."

Ying Zheng was in a very good mood, and he was very generous with his actions.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were immediately moved. This is a great reward!

"I don't want any rewards, I only have one wish, and I hope His Majesty will fulfill it."

Zuo Wei has no interest in high officials, rich salary, gold, silver and jewellery.

"tell me the story."
