The marriage negotiations between the Zhenxi Hou Mansion and the Tang family were very fast, and it didn't take long for the first few steps to be completed.
Today is the day when the Zhenxihou Mansion goes to the Tang family to hire someone.
In the past, the housekeeper had to come forward to recruit the young masters of the Hou family. But today, the Marquis of Zhenxi personally rode his horse and went there with the betrothal gift, which gave the Tang family plenty of face.
On the street, everyone was dazzled by the man wearing a scarlet brocade robe and riding a tall horse.
"Whose son is this? He is so handsome. Is he planning to get hired? I don't know which girl is so lucky."
"Yes, yes, not to mention so many betrothal gifts, just this handsome face, it is not a loss to get married."
"Hey, it's Prince Zhou. Don't you recognize the current Marquis of Zhenxi?"
"Ah, I've only heard of him before, but I didn't dare to look at him. Isn't he a dandy? Who dares to get closer and take a look? Isn't this because he is afraid of being beaten for no reason?"
"Haha, what are you afraid of? Although the Marquis is young and vigorous, the most he can do is curse at people who don't have eyesight. When have you ever hit anyone?"
"If you say that there is someone who likes to hit others...haha, God has eyes and he would have been taken away long ago."
"I heard that the Marquis of Zhenxi is engaged to the granddaughter of the Tang Dynasty's miracle doctor?"
"Yes, that's right, the one who traveled thousands of miles to Qingzhou to treat the epidemic with the miracle doctor. Let me tell you, Miss Tang is definitely a kind-hearted person, and she and Lord Zhou are a match made in heaven."
In the elegant room on the second floor of the teahouse along the street, a person was leaning against the window and watching.
Xiao Cong listened to the discussion below the teahouse and smiled, "Uncle Jun, my cousin is on par with me in talent and martial arts. In terms of appearance, he is the best in the entire Ruidu. With him as your son-in-law, You won’t suffer a loss either, but don’t be unhappy.”
Early in the morning, Tang Junqian had never had a smile on his face.
He knew what King Ding was saying.
Indeed, if one were to talk about who in the entire Ruidu was most suitable for his daughter, it would be hard to pick just a few, and Zhou Qiong was one of them with the most outstanding character, talent and appearance.
But as a father, he hopes that his daughter can live a stable and happy life for the rest of her life.
Although he followed Prince Ding to seek a future for the Tang family, his daughter, and himself, it did not mean that he was willing for his daughter to wade into this muddy water.
The Marquis of Zhenxi family has a great cause and has military power that has been controlled for generations, so it may not be a good destination.
From now on, my daughter will have to work hard.
Tang Junqian sighed heavily, "My lord, you don't have children yet, so you don't quite understand the painstaking efforts of being a parent. As parents, they just want their children to live a safe life, and sometimes marry into a high-ranking family. , not necessarily happy.”
Xiao Cong said: "It is true that I have never given birth to a child, but, Uncle Jun, what you said is wrong."
"Do you still remember the girl who rescued us twice on Sunrise Island? She is kind, but she has a stubborn temper. She doesn't want the wealthy marriage her parents have set for her, and is only willing to marry her poor cousin."
Tang Junqian frowned, "Are you talking about the one who made a big fuss with her parents and said that the young couple could live a good life with their hard work? I remember that she eloped with her cousin without even bringing her dowry in the end, and she insisted on Her parents are very angry and anxious."
"Yes, she also said that she just wanted to live an ordinary and simple life. But in the end, her cousin betrayed her in the end and almost sold her into slavery. And the wealthy family to whom she was originally engaged , On the contrary, he was very good to the wife he married later, and the girl’s intestines were turned green in the end.”
Tang Junqian's eyes flashed slightly, "This girl can't carry it clearly, but she can't compare with my Ling'er."
Xiao Cong chuckled lightly, "Uncle Jun, I just want to say that people with high positions and powerful positions are not bad, and people with simple family backgrounds may not necessarily make the wife live a happy life. Everyone depends on people."
"Uncle Jun, you are someone who has been through this, so you can't understand what Ah Qiong thinks about Miss Tang. Just for this reason, he is better than others."
"I know, I just, hey, this wedding was really too rushed."
Time is running out. He can't go back to the Tang family openly now, and he can't put any effort into his daughter's marriage. He always feels that he is not a good father and owes his daughter too much.
And Zhou Qiong got married in such a hurry just to prepare before leaving. He was really uneasy, fearing that if something happened to Zhou Qiong in the future, his daughter would be left a widow.
Xiao Cong understood his thoughts and advised, "Uncle Jun, it would be a good thing for Arqiong and Miss Tang to get married as soon as possible. As long as they get married, Miss Tang will be the First-Rank Marquis. With the imperial edict, if you want to take advantage of her or make plans for her, Anyone who wants to bully her will have to think carefully."
"I think there must be this reason why Arqiong is so eager to marry Miss Tang."
"Well, I understand everything the prince said."
Especially thinking about what Zhou Qiong did a few days ago, he felt a little more satisfied with Zhou Qiong.
A man is a man if he doesn't let his wife suffer for the so-called overall situation.
Zhou Qiong's back disappeared completely at the street corner, but the betrothal gifts tied with red silk behind him had not all passed by yet.
"Twenty Zhuangzi."
"Ten thousand acres of fields."
"Three thousand taels of gold."
"..."
"I'm a good boy. If the Marquis of Zhenxi marries a daughter-in-law, then he will empty out his family's wealth, right?"
"In all my life, I have never seen anyone marry a wife with so much betrothal gift."
"I don't know what the eldest daughter of the Tang family will do in the future. Just bringing back half of the betrothal gift will be enough for Shili Hongzhuang, right?"
Listening to the people downstairs sighing about the generous betrothal gift, which was no less generous than the previous prince's marriage, Tang Junqian finally felt a little better.
At least, it's hard to say how much Zhou Qiong attaches importance to his daughter.
After thinking for a while, he praised, "I heard from you, Your Majesty, that the Zhenxihou Mansion has been raising the Zhenxi Army at its own expense. I thought that Zhou Houye's family was not rich, but today I saw that it is not bad."
Xiao Cong almost spit out the tea in his mouth when he heard this.
He swallowed it quickly, coughed a few times half-seriously, and lowered his head to cover up his embarrassment as a relative and friend of the man.
Arqiong had already settled with him.
All the properties of the Zhenxihou Mansion were handed over to Miss Tang.
In other words, in fact, all the betrothal money should have been earned by Miss Tang herself.
Including the "Dingbei Army" he gathered not long ago, it was also the money given by Miss Tang to clear the way.
Thinking of this, Xiao Cong suddenly felt envious of Zhou Qiong.
Anyway, Miss Tang is about to become his cousin. Otherwise, he will shamelessly ask her to help take care of his private property?
Xiao Cong secretly considered the feasibility of this matter, and at the same time began to worry about his future candidate for the concubine.
He doesn't have a sweetheart, and he doesn't know what kind of person his mother-in-law and father-in-law will choose for him?
Although he has not yet decided to return to Ruidu "openly", in fact, he has done what he needs to do secretly and is ready to "come back".
But this choice...
