Mrs. Rebirth

Zuo Shaoqing did not return to Zuo's house after moving out of Zhen Guogong's mansion, but lived in his second uncle's house. For this reason, Zuo Yunwen came to the door to scold him.

Zuo Shaoqing only said one sentence: "Father, I heard that my eldest brother is not feeling well, and my eldest sister will get married in May. I am afraid that the family will be too busy? My son will not make trouble."

Zuo Shaoyan still failed to enter the palace that day, Zuo Shaoqing didn't specifically ask about it, but just heard from Luo Xiaoliu that he stood outside the palace gate for a whole day, neither eating nor drinking, his eyes glazed over. Fainted outside the palace gate.

After being carried home, Zuo Shaoyan was in a daze, shutting himself in the room alone without seeing anyone.

If Zuo Shaoyan was only disappointed when he missed the exam the first time, then this time he was completely disappointed, not because he didn't have a chance to take the imperial examination, but because the blow of repeated failures completely destroyed his self-confidence.

Zuo Yunwen was also having a hard time. He learned from Zhu Chenggui that the Young Madam of the Jiang Mansion was a hindrance, that she was overbearing and blocked the way, and was framed insidiously. However, Zhu Chenggui didn't know what happened to Zuo Shaoyan afterwards, even the one who was detained by him The mother and son were also robbed halfway, and there was no evidence left at all. An angry Zuo Yunwen became angry with Zuo Shuhui for the first time, blaming her for acting ignorantly, otherwise how could such a disaster be caused?

Zuo Shuhui knew she was wrong, and confessed for a long time outside Zuo Shaoyan's room, but Zuo Shaoyan was indifferent, and the door was still closed, so she had to swear over and over again that she would avenge her elder brother.

She is a concubine for the second grade Shangshu, and she is a noble concubine who can be included in the genealogy. Even if she is inferior to her wife and cannot compete with her, she may not be able to surpass her in the future.

Mrs. Xue fainted for a while when she learned that Zuo Shaoyan didn't make it in time for the imperial examination. When Zuo Shaoyan was carried back, her eyes were swollen from crying. She was like a defeated rooster, completely gone. look.

After crying, scolding, and hating, Xue still had to cheer up to prepare a dowry for her daughter. She was worried that her daughter would be bullied when she married, so she tried every means to stuff good things into her dowry, and tried her best to find a dowry for her. With a few honest and reliable companions, naturally they are not in the mood, energy or money to arrange the marriage for Zuo Shaoqing.

What's more, even if Zuo Shaoqing married the Duke of Zhen, he couldn't change the fact that he was a man. He could say anything outside, which made Xue's face lose face. Expulsion from the genealogy.

Zuo Yunwen was actually in a mixed mood of sadness and joy. One of her legitimate sons and daughters failed the imperial examination, and the other became a concubine, which was a shameful thing. He was also married by imperial decree.

It's just that Zuo Yunwen couldn't be happy when the marriage was mentioned. A good son is not married but married, and this son was just a high school champion. He became someone else's family before even the lintel was lit. How can he swallow this breath?

He scolded his son and younger brother with a dark face, and finally left 2000 taels of silver notes, only saying that it was for Zuo Shaoqing's marriage, but he really couldn't say anything about the dowry for Zuo Shaoqing.

After he left, Zuo Shaoqing looked at the 2000 taels sarcastically. This was his father. As long as he had a little heart for him, Zuo Shaoqing would not let the Zuo family fall into a desperate situation.

Unfortunately, Zuo Yunwen's actions only made him more and more disappointed. He pushed the 2000 taels to Zuo Yunyang, "Second uncle, these are the nephew's expenses these days."

Zuo Yunyang put it away casually. Anyway, he knew that Zuo Shaoqing didn't like this little money, and even added makeup to Zuo Shaoqing. I really don't know how his good brother can afford it. of.

Moreover, leaving aside the marriage of Mrs. Zhen Guogong, but focusing on her daughter who is about to marry and become a concubine, isn't this putting the cart before the horse?

"Shaoqing, don't be sad, just treat your second uncle as your own home in the future." Zuo Yunyang watched Zuo Shaoqing grow up all the way, and it was because of his relationship that his career was promoted to a higher level. The nephew has long admired him and cast himself on the ground.

Zuo Shaoqing smiled nonchalantly, holding a teacup and blowing slowly, he suddenly asked: "Second Uncle, do you want to be the head of the Zuo Clan?"

"Kangdang..." The teacup in Zuo Yunyang's hand fell to the ground, but he was stunned without realizing it.

"My nephew feels that it is really difficult for Zuo's family to develop in the hands of his father. It is better to let the second uncle take care of it, so as to avoid some incomprehensible people always doing some embarrassing things."

"This...but, the second uncle was born as a concubine..." How can a normal family let a concubine run the clan when there is a concubine?

The current patriarch of the Zuo family is Zuo Yunwen. Even if he dies, the heir will only be Zuo Shaoyan, and no one will think of Erfang.

"Who said a bastard can't be the head of the family?" If it wasn't because he was going to get married, Zuo Shaoqing would never have given up the opportunity to hold Zuo's family in his heart.

"The clan elders won't agree." Zuo Yunyang said with shining eyes.

In fact, becoming the head of the Zuo clan does not bring much benefit. The Zuo clan has now been torn apart, and most of the offshoots have gone out alone, but there are still some businesses in Youxi Town.

With Zuo Yunyang's current family background, he naturally looked down on that bit of family property, but the patriarch of the clan was a status symbol. If he could become the patriarch, who else in the clan would think that he was just a lowly businessman?

"Shaoqing, second uncle is not only a concubine but also a businessman, I'm afraid..."

"There is nothing wrong with being a businessman. The clan is full of money. They are naturally willing to support whoever can give them a better life. What's more..." Zuo Shaoqing poured another cup of tea for Zuo Yunyang, "What's more, the businessman Isn't there something unusual?"

Zuo Yunyang's eyes lit up, "You mean... the Imperial Merchant?"

Zuo Shaoqing nodded, "My nephew has learned some news. It won't be long before the imperial court will monopolize some overseas products. At that time, someone must come to do this business for the imperial court."

This is also something that I only remembered when I saw the gold that Ke Youliang had brought back by luck. When the imperial court found out that gold and silver could be brought back from overseas at a low cost, they knew that this right should be tightened, otherwise a large amount of gold would flood the market, and the consequences would be disastrous.

Not only gold and silver mines, but also iron ore and salt are on the list of prohibited trade.

Zuo Yunyang only thought that he got the news from Lord Zhen Guo, without doubting it at all, his whole face was radiant, he grabbed Zuo Shaoqing's hand and said: "Shaoqing, if you can really become an imperial merchant, second uncle will not be ashamed in this lifetime. It's complete."

"Haha...Second Uncle, don't say that, don't you want to see the eldest sister getting married in a splendid manner, seeing Shao Jin's title on the gold list, full of children and grandchildren?"

Zuo Yunyang only felt that there was a golden road in front of him, and it was Zuo Shaoqing who paved this golden road for him. He looked at Zuo Shaoqing excitedly, and said with a sob: "Shaoqing, from now on, the second uncle's family will be all Listen to you."

"Second uncle is an elder, so don't say that." Zuo Shaoqing nodded with satisfaction. He is not a saint, and it is impossible to help Zuo Yunyang unconditionally, but he didn't really want to get much benefit from Zuo Yunyang. Can have one more reliable mother's family.

Just when Zuo Shaoqing was figuring out how to pull the eldest son of the Zuo family from the position of patriarch, Lu Zheng also entered the palace again.

"You really don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, what do you want to ask your husband and wife this time?" Zhan Yuanfeng jokingly raised his eyebrows.

After so many days, he still couldn't digest the fact that Lu Zheng was going to marry a man, and it was an eyesore to see his proud groom.

"Your Majesty misunderstood, I'm here to give you something." Lu Zheng clapped his hands, and seven things covered with white cloth were brought in.

In an instant, a stench emanated from the imperial study room where the censer was originally smoking. Zhan Yuanfeng covered his nose with his sleeve, frowned and asked, "What is it?"

"Just look at it and you'll know." Lu Zheng stepped back to the side, waiting for a good show.

Of course, Zhan Yuanfeng could tell what was under the white cloth at a glance, but he didn't look at it foolishly because it smelled like a neighbor's nausea.

He beckoned the servant to check it out, pretending to be seriously admiring the antique paperweight in his hand.

The waiter pinched his nose and carefully lifted the white cloth to take a look. He almost couldn't hold back and vomited out on the spot, but he was ordered to do so, and he only had to check one by one.

"Your majesty, these...are the guards of the five princesses."

Zhan Yuanfeng waved his hands and asked people to quickly carry out the source of the stench, and waited for the maids to wipe the imperial study room and sprinkle the dew again before saying: "Are you sure you read it correctly?"

The servant bent his legs and knelt on the ground, "Return to the emperor, although...although the body is a little rotten, but the slave did recognize that it was the bodyguard given to the fifth princess by the late emperor."

"Okay, you step back." Zhan Yuanfeng drove away, waited for the door of the imperial study room to be closed before asking: "Tell me, what kind of result do you want?"

Lu Zheng went to the side and sat down, flicked the hem of his shirt, and replied without changing his face: "I heard that the emperor wants to marry the fifth princess to the eldest prince of Beidi, so as to make Qin and Jin good?"

Zhan Yuanfeng didn't hide anything, nodded and said: "I have this plan!"

"The envoy from Beidi has already entered the capital. I think this matter should be arranged by the minister."

Zhan Yuanfeng stared at him suspiciously, Lu Zheng would be so kind?But let Lu Zheng, Beidi's enemy, talk about marriage, the other party might be scared to death, right?

"Ai Qing, it's time for Dayang to recuperate, so it's not advisable to go to war." Zhan Yuanfeng warned worriedly.

Lu Zheng squinted at him, and sneered at Zhan Yuan Feng's messy thoughts, "The emperor is worrying too much, I will definitely handle this matter well."

After finishing speaking, he got up and left, the wedding was just around the corner, he didn't want his former enemies to attend his wedding, it's better to finish the talk as soon as possible and let them go as soon as possible.

Zhan Yuanfeng still felt a little unreal, he thought that even if Lu Zheng didn't want Zhan Yunxiang's life, he would send him three thousand miles away, so why did he promote her good deed instead?

Before leaving the door, Lu Zheng turned his head and explained kindly: "I feel that the third prince of Beidi is better than the first prince, and he is just right with the fifth princess!"

As his figure walked away, Zhan Yuanfeng let out a low laugh. The third prince of Beidi is a notorious lord, not only violent, but also lustful. It is said that the woman in his hands has never lived a month Yes, what a waste of money!
