Qi Yun helped Mrs. Qi to sit at the table. It was not because Mrs. Qi was physically weak, but this was a sign of respect.
Mrs. Qi grabbed her daughter's hand and put it in the palm of her hand: "My dear child, tell mother what you really think. If you really don't want to marry that dandy Mr. Liu, just tell mother and go and do it." You prepare your bags, leave the Qi family, leave Jinling, and don't come back again. Find a place to live outside for two years. Once the storm is over, your father's anger will be gone, and you can come back then."
After Mrs. Qi came back from Yizhou Province, she naturally heard about the rumors about Liu Qi's troubles in Yanyu Pavilion. The nanny Yu was her dowry maid from Yizhou. Although she was a maid, she loved her sisters. She treated Qi Yun no more than she did. This mother-in-law is in trouble, so she has to report such a big thing to my lady. Besides, Mrs. Qi is Qi Yun’s mother-in-law, so she can always give some ideas. As for Qi Yun, she is already very satisfied with Liu Mingzhi’s wishes. He didn't tell Mrs. Qi, just because he was afraid that if things changed, there would be room for recovery.
Mrs. Qi was even more worried when she heard that her master had agreed to marry the Liu family. No one knows the second daughter's temperament better than her mother. She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She has a hot temper and an upright mind. No, the master is forcing her. Marrying a daughter into the Liu family will definitely cause a backlash from her, and it could be a disaster.
Mrs. Qi naturally knows what kind of person Qi Shi is. They have been husband and wife for more than ten years, and Qi Run's character is very clear. Although she often scolds her children for not knowing the rules, she treats the three people equally with fatherly love. Run understands that children have different personalities, so he should teach the three children not to be the same. The eldest daughter is gentle and kind, and she will treat her with tenderness. This woman is upright and stubborn and must be treated harshly, otherwise she may not be able to discipline her in the future. Although the second son is younger, , but it is also the most worry-free. Naturally, we must encourage and strengthen the stick, otherwise we may develop an arrogant and domineering character. Facts have proved that Qi Run's approach is right, and his three children are all doing well.
In this case, how could Qi Run marry his daughter to the Liu family just because of a rumor about Yanyu Pavilion? Even though the Liu family is the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, Mrs. Yun Qi of the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Liu family in the south of the Yangtze River naturally knows that even so, the Liu family is not bad. A Shangzhou governor and a third-rank official represent the imperial court. No matter how rich the Liu family is, they will never dare to play tricks on the imperial court. .
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce have always been divided into clear hierarchies. A merchant is a merchant. No matter how rich you are, you are still a merchant even if you are extremely wealthy. After all, your status is not as good as that of the gentry officials.
Sure enough, Qi Run naturally told his wife the reason. His mother-in-law had nothing to hide. They had been husband and wife for more than ten years and knew each other well. They were not children who had not yet grown up. They might not understand the difficulties of their elders.
King Duan and Song Yu, Minister of the Ministry of War, acted as matchmakers. If he didn't agree, there would definitely be no good results. No matter how much the Kao Gong Department and the Supervising Censor praised the local officials, the papers would be submitted to the Six Ministries for trial. In addition, King Duan was watching eagerly from the side. Qi Run naturally knew that his career as an official would be difficult in the future, so with the political achievements of agreeing to a marriage every three years and the recommendation of a minister and the prince to be promoted to the sixth minister, it was simply a piece of cake.
That's why Qi Run secretly scolded Liu Zhi'an for being cruel and ruthless. If his son had ruined his daughter's reputation, it would be fine if he didn't bother him.
Mrs. Qi grew up in a noble family, so she naturally knew the stakes involved, and she also understood the helplessness of Qi's governor. Whether it was Prince Duan or the Minister of the Ministry of War, a casual mention was enough to test the merits of the official. In the officialdom, he could not help himself. The intrigue is greater than any place of intrigue.
Song Yu didn't agree with Liu Zhi'an's intention at first. After all, if a merchant's son wanted to marry the daughter of a feudal official, he would have to pay a big price. Liu Zhi'an told his elder brother in detail the interests involved, and Qi Run would definitely It would be a help to move to the left prime minister Wei Yong. Only then did Song Yu understand Liu Zhi'an's thoughts. He not only found an amulet for Liu Mingzhi but also found a trump card for himself. He must be promoted from a local official to an official in the Sixth Ministry. Being entrusted with important responsibilities and holding real power is indeed a very important card.
It can be seen from this that Liu Zhi'an may not be the material to be an official, but in terms of vicious vision and speculation, he is still a step above Song Yu.
Even though she understood her husband's difficulties, she didn't want her daughter to be wronged. After Mrs. Qi returned home, she strictly ordered her servants not to tell the second lady that she had returned from a family visit. Since Mrs. Qi came back, she knew that her daughter had locked herself in the house for ten years. She hadn't gone out for half a month. Mrs. Qi guessed that her daughter was still upset about her marriage and didn't want to see anyone, but she didn't know that her daughter was recuperating from an injury.
Mrs. Qi also knew what kind of fate Qi Run would face after she told her daughter to fly away. She might just quit as governor of a state and resign, but after all, her daughter was a piece of flesh that had fallen off her body, so she couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
Mrs. Qi even considered that in the worst case, Qi Run might be dismissed from office. After all, Liu Mingzhi had already entered the emperor's eyes and issued an edict.
Qi Yun's face turned rosy, remembering what she said loudly to Liu Mingzhi that day in Yangzhou. She had already prepared a wedding dress. This was obviously telling Liu Mingzhi that I was ready to marry you. When will you come to propose marriage? It is a marriage contract, and only the real proposal of marriage can tell the world that the Liu and Qi families will take over Qin and Jin.
"Mom, it's up to the two elders to make the decision about my daughter. Yun'er will marry whenever her father asks her to marry her."
Mrs. Qi sighed and shook her head: "Yun'er, you are sensible and know how to consider your parents. I hope you don't resent your father. Sometimes he can't help himself with some things. What he has to consider is the dozens of elders in the Qi family. Small interests, I have wronged you, I have wronged you, child."
"Mom, I'm really not wronged. Brother Liu... Although the young master is a bit dandy, he's actually pretty good. He's a particularly bad person. He knows everything but pretends to be confused. Sometimes you'll be so angry that I'll kill him." He has a heart in his heart, and he wishes he could give him a beating to get rid of the hatred in his heart. But he is also very smart, as if nothing can trouble him, and he can solve any problem easily; the most important thing is that he is particularly stupid. He is simply a big fool, a big idiot, a big fool. He obviously lives together, but he can't identify other people's identities, and he still talks about their breasts... Sometimes he doesn't have any self-awareness, and he is clearly not an enemy. My opponent still manages to charge forward, he is a big bad guy anyway, a very bad kind."
Mrs. Qi looked at her daughter in shock. She didn't know anything else, but Liu Mingzhi was a bad guy. Mrs. Qi knew it. How could he not be bad? He was so bad that it broke her daughter's heart.
Qi Yun didn't know that when she told Liu Mingzhi all kinds of things, she was so happy that she couldn't hide her joy, and all the topics of joy, anger, sorrow and joy revolved around one person, Liu Mingzhi.
Mrs. Qi is not a little girl. How could she not see that her daughter’s heart has been stolen long ago? Mrs. Liu is both happy and sentimental. What is gratifying is that her daughter’s destiny is not a transaction but a real matchmaker. What is sad is that her daughter Finally getting married. Only those who are parents can understand that kind of contradictory and sad complexity.
