When Emperor Wu dressed as Darcy's sister

In Europe in the 19th century, titles were far less valuable than in the Middle Ages.With the development of shipping and the establishment of a constitutional monarchy, many titles can be bought with money.

Although the titles bought at the beginning are always contemptuous, it is because of this that old Mr. Darcy is reluctant to buy a modest title.But in Darcy's day, who cares whether the title has been handed down from the sixteenth century or was newly created by the queen in the nineteenth century?

For the nobles who have tasted the expensive imported goods from the Far East, money is much more enviable than empty fame!

That is to say, Darcy was sticking to the old Mr. Darcy's last wish, so he didn't choose to use money to buy a title, but took the risk to seek opportunities in the war—of course, he couldn't directly go to the battlefield, but he could contribute military funds!There is no member of Congress who is not happy to take a large amount of military spending for nothing.

What's more, with Stuart's name in the front, these military expenditures are actually from the left pocket to the right pocket. France is not greedy enough, and retreats to the European continent after a disastrous defeat. The Allied forces are ambitious and tend to attack the French mainland.

The previous five anti-French alliances had all come back with disastrous defeats, but this time Stuart won a big victory. He only needs to give a little signal, and no one will sing the wrong tune unwisely.

"That's why I would like to thank you, Earl." Darcy who just came back from the harbor concluded, "Without him, I would not have obtained the title of Viscount so easily."

Wu Zhao nodded with a smile, "No matter what the process is, my father's wish is finally fulfilled. My brother doesn't have to be restrained too much."

Darcy was slightly taken aback, and flattened a pair of thin lips. He heard the unfinished meaning in Wu Zhao's words, and hesitated for a long time before saying: "You are right—the Darcy family already has a title. Father's early regrets , all the humiliation I have suffered has been washed away, and I really don’t have to be bound by my earlier promise.”

Old Mr. Darcy was teased and ridiculed because he had no title but was rich in money in the early years.When interacting with people, he always felt inferior to those nobles. This feeling was not better until Mrs. Darcy, who had a noble family background, was adopted, but Mrs. Darcy did not bring a title, and he always had a thorn in his heart.

When the old Mr. Darcy died, Darcy promised in front of the hospital bed that he would marry the only daughter of a nobleman in the future in order to obtain the title and title.But now, Darcy himself has a title. Even if he marries an only daughter of a nobleman, it is impossible to inherit other people's titles. Naturally, the promise back then is invalid, and it is not regarded as disrespecting his father's last wish.

Wu Zhao stopped short, and didn't say much on this topic, but smiled and took out the letter from Mrs. De Boer, "Auntie heard that you went to the front line, and said in the letter that she was so worried that she couldn't sleep at night. I request that if you come back, you must go to Rosings Manor, otherwise she may not be able to sleep well again."

"I'll go--" Darcy said in a low voice with lowered eyelids, "and you, Gina, I remember you once said that your friend Asha seemed to be a little confused with our uncle , unknown relationship?"

Wu Zhao did become suspicious of Yasha's life experience, and had a rough guess, but she swore

Well, she never mentioned anything about a girl's name to Darcy or anyone else!

But Qingniang didn't avoid the people in the manor when she did things. Wu Zhao was not surprised when Darcy heard the news.Since he didn't object, but brought it up by himself, it means that Darcy has found out the truth that Qingniang hasn't found out, which is equivalent to affirming Wu Zhao's guess in disguise.

"Asha is a good girl, she shouldn't suffer like this." Wu Zhao made a final decision, then raised her head with a smile on her face, "Then please help me, brother, so that Asha can succeed in this matter." Get away?"

Darcy nodded, "I have sent someone to Xin Rosings Manor, and we will visit Aunt De Boer in two days."

"That would be the best." Wu Zhao said with a smile, "After my mother passed away and I went to London to go to school, I have never been to Rosings Manor. Although there are many letters every year, I still miss it a little bit. The view from my aunt's place."

"And Anna, I remember that she was a little girl back then, and she is 14 years old this year—speaking of which, I haven't given her this year's birthday present yet!"

But Darcy's mind wandered somewhere, he just nodded absently to show that he was listening, but his eyes were blank.

Wu Zhao smiled slyly, and deliberately rambled a few words, then slowly got up and said, "Brother, you just came back from the harbor, go wash up and rest first? I've already asked someone to change you a new bedding."

As she said that, she made a gesture to call the maid outside the door to come in.

Darcy hurriedly stopped and said, "Wait a minute, Gina!"

"What's the matter?" Wu Zhao looked at Darcy pretending to be puzzled, "What else did brother not say?"

A smear of blood crept slowly from the back of Darcy's neck to his ears, and after a while, his whole face was as red as if he had crawled out of a dye vat.

"Ah, ah, it's nothing—no, no, I mean, I mean..."

Darcy paused for a while, then said in a low voice embarrassedly: "I mean, can you write to invite Elizabeth to come with you?"

After he finished speaking, his eyes drifted to the ceiling, staring at the relief on it, trying to look like he didn't care, and said in a steady voice: "Now I have a title, and my father's last wish has been fulfilled. It is useless to marry another noble lady..."

Before the words were finished, Wu Zhao couldn't help snickering, she was in high spirits, laughing silently until she was about to shed tears, thankfully Darcy was embarrassed to look at her, otherwise she would reveal her secrets on the spot.

She suppressed a smile: "Ah, that's right—but how can I invite Eliza to my aunt's house? This reason is too strange, and she will definitely not accept it."

Darcy was discouraged for a while, and murmured: "What you said makes sense..."

Seeing his dejected look, Wu Zhao finally couldn't help laughing, and couldn't stop laughing, leaning back and forth, laughing so that Darcy became angry, and began to threaten Stuart not to come to Pemberley Manor again, Wu Zhao gradually stopped laughing.

"It's not a threat, brother. But—"

Wu Zhao made a comment

, and before Darcy got really annoyed, he prolonged the turn of his voice, and only after he had attracted all his attention, he smiled and said, "I received a letter from Eliza, who was accepted by her good friend Charlotte Lu Miss Cass—oh, no, Mrs. Collins now—invites, to her newly married house—you know, Collins, the fellow who got the Hunsford professorship by his aunt's favor, who The house is not far from Rosings."

Darcy's eyes lit up, and he felt his whole heart jumping up. He was so happy that Wu Zhao didn't even care about teasing him on purpose just now, and almost couldn't wait to ask: "When will she leave? Should we leave?" can come together."

Wu Zhao said with a smile: "The letter was sent a week ago, and she has probably arrived in Hunsford by now. She will stay for about two weeks. If there is no accident, we will see you at Rosings' dinner party." to her."

Darcy nodded contentedly, then stood up, and nodded Wu Zhao's forehead, "Slippery guy!"

Wu Zhao hid back with a smile, and did not mention to Darcy that Elizabeth had written many times complaining about Collins' proposal to her.

It is said that Collins didn't fall in love with the ordinary-looking Charlotte at first, but Elizabeth. Unfortunately, even if she didn't make it clear, Elizabeth's thoughts were entrusted to Darcy. Collins.But Collins didn't have that self-knowledge. He even thought she was just a lady's reserve, and he proposed three times before he would give up!

"I was driven mad by him, and so was my mother, whose face was stretched almost longer than a farm horse. God bless, may Collins be happily married, and never think of me again as a ruthless young lady."

Elizabeth wrote to complain many times, but only at the end of the last letter, she ambiguously asked Wu Zhao about Darcy's recent situation, "I heard that the frontline battle has been defeated recently. Is everything okay in the house? Inform. Jane and I are very worried."

At that time, Wu Zhao only had time to say hello to Darcy, and it was hard to say anything else. Elizabeth must have been anxious. If Darcy expressed his heart this time, with Wu Zhao as the foreshadowing, it would probably be more effective with less effort.

But I won’t tell my brother about this—Wu Zhao secretly laughed in his heart, how could he be impressed without going through a psychological struggle and mustering up the courage to confess his love?

What's more...Wu Zhao rolled her eyes, she still wanted to watch a good show!

But before that, Lydia's matter had to be settled.

Wu Zhao thoughtfully glanced at Darcy, who was immersed in excitement. Fortunately, his brother had come back, and Wu Zhao didn't need to spend any more energy on Sirius' affairs. It could be handed over to Darcy and borrowed from Stuart. power to do it.

There are too many involved in this, and Wu Zhao is very careful when checking it out. If the interests of shipping are involved, Wu Zhao is extremely afraid.

In contrast, Lydia was much easier to deal with—a ignorant little girl, Wu Zhao didn't believe it, and she was thrown away for a few months of labor and reform. The vicious prisoners couldn't stand it, let alone the pampered Lidia. Ya!

She didn't cry anymore and was still wandering in the sky

Darcy, who was outside, quietly exited the living room, beckoned to a maid, and motioned, "Where is Qingniang?"

The maid said quickly: "In the hall, the farm manager has come to plant seeds for the spring."

Wu Zhao nodded, waved the maid away, walked straight to the hall, and listened quietly for a while.

The manager who came to the farm was nothing more than to report some unavoidable losses on the farm last winter, and how many farm tools needed to be repaired and other scattered things.

Qing Niang is very familiar with the work, and she dismissed the lion's big mouth, but the necessary farm tools still need to be updated, and a few stewards are sent to intervene... Order one by one, and after a while, it took more than half an hour .

When it was the last little steward's turn to answer, he was frowning, but the news in his words caught Wu Zhao's attention.

"Peng Lima's family, where a man died the year before last -- that is, the house where the lady sent a woman away last year -- their debts were not paid off, and someone came to ask for the debt again this spring..."
