I messed up my errand and acted without permission, yet I got a promotion!
Although Zhuge Weidao's life was originally "reincarnation", the prime minister was his clan brother, the chief secretary of the prime minister's palace was his eldest brother, his immediate boss, the chief of naval intelligence, was his cousin, and he himself was the concubine of the empress dowager... .But these "hangs" taken together are not enough for Zhuge Weidao to be promoted after causing such a big disaster.
Mr. Guo, who also had a cheating life, immediately thought of something. He looked at his stepson, and then at the polite attitude of Zhuge Weijiu and Zhuge Yangwu towards Zhuge Weidao, and he also became suspicious - is it difficult? Could it be that Zhuge Weidao is pretending to be crazy? What big deal is he planning with the army?
Not to mention that Guo was suspicious of this matter, Li Tiezhu also knew that something was wrong - although the Queen Mother favored Zhuge Dao, the Queen Mother was not in power after all! As for what Zhuge Weidao and King Lao Cheng promised the Queen Mother back then, they should transfer Zhuge Weidao to the Jinyi Guards to serve nearby!
Once you get to the Imperial Guard, let alone being promoted to lieutenant colonel, you can even become a general... Anyway, this job is to serve the queen mother, and outsiders can't control it.
But now Zhuge Weidao is still in the navy and wants to be a lieutenant colonel in the navy, and he also has to shoulder important responsibilities with Lin Zexu! It even involves changes in national policies... Is this Zhuge Weidao pretending to be crazy and pretending to be the leader of the Zhuge family, and acting as a pioneer for the Zhuge family to change national policies?
That must be the case!
Li Tiezhu understood at once that the Zhuge family, who had always thought of nothing, finally figured out that they should take advantage of the era of great technological leaps in the navy and army, and use the industrial and technological advantages of the Ming Dynasty to establish the Ming Dynasty's thousand-year hegemony in one fell swoop!
Thinking of this, Li Tiezhu had no intention of staying in Prince Wu's Mansion to watch the Zhuge family go crazy. He had to go back and talk to the uncles and brothers of Prince Li Shun about the "change of national policy" that the Zhuge family might be planning. So Li Tiezhu exchanged a few words with several people from the Zhuge family, and stood up to leave on the pretext that he still had official business to deal with.
Zhuge Weijiu pretended to stay for a while, and asked his son Zhuge Yangwu to see off the guests, while he stayed to talk to Zhuge Weidao, Zhuge Weixue and Guo Rong. He didn't know that Guo Rong had arranged a good deal with the Dahei family for Zhuge Weidao before, and thought that Zhuge Weidao's stepmother was here to discuss the marriage between Zhuge Weidao and Natalie.
So she smiled and said to Guo Rong: "Aunt, you brought the 88th brother and the 108th brother here to discuss the marriage between the 108th brother and the Grand Duchess Natalie? Don't worry, Rakshasa Country Bian, it's all on me... I'll let Ambassador Wei go and tell Nicholas I. Although this marriage does not comply with the rules of their European royal family, it is not a big deal, it is nothing more than a hundred The descendants of Brother Lingba and the Grand Duchess do not have the right to inherit the Rakshasa throne. We will slowly figure out a solution for this inheritance matter later. Tsar Paul has too many children, and Natalie is the youngest. Unless there is a disaster, her children It is unlikely that he will inherit it on his turn."
Something weird!
Although Zhuge Weijiu's tone was calm and indifferent, Guo Rong still knew that this matter would not be easy to handle... It was one thing for Natalie and Zhuge Weidao to elope, and it was recognized by the Rakshasa royal family. This marriage was something else.
Although Zhuge Weidao was born into a noble family, he did not have a title. He was far from Natalie's Grand Duchess, and he was not an Orthodox Christian... Of course, this marriage was not guaranteed. The Rakshasa royal family recognized it, but the Zhuge family had to pay a price that could make Nicholas I tempted.
Thinking of this, Guo Rong said tentatively: "To be honest, when I was studying at the Naval Staff College in Shanghai one hundred and eight years ago, I fell in love with a Japanese girl living in Shanghai named Daheikong... ..”
It turns out that Zhuge Weidao hooked up with a girl from the Dahei family while he was studying at the Naval Staff College in Shanghai. That Dai Heikong is only sixteen years old now, so back then... was this considered puppy love?
"It's just a little Japanese girl. As long as Grand Duchess Natalie has no objection..." After Zhuge Weiji said this for a long time, he suddenly froze, "Dahei? Dahei's family in Ginza?"
"Exactly!" Guo Rong said with a gloomy face, "Grand Military Advisor, what do you think we should do about this matter? Can we allow the eldest daughter of the Dahei family to be a concubine for One Hundred and Eight?"
"Or the direct descendant?" Zhuge Weidao looked at Zhuge Weidao for a long time, and then sighed - an old fox like him who has become a spirit, of course understands what the original Zhuge Weidao, who was not stupid, was planning.
Japan's inheritance system attaches equal importance to blood and family name. If the direct line of the Daikoku family is extinct, or the direct male descendants of the Daikoku family are too incompetent, a son-in-law and grandson with outstanding ability may also succeed the Daikoku family and become the head of the family.
In other words, the son born by Zhuge Weidao and Daheikong can completely squeeze out the direct son of the Dahei family and seek the position of heir to the Dahei family... This matter is going to happen, and the four major Japanese Two of the chaebols are completely controlled by Ming Dynasty's forces!
And Zhuge Weidao was able to win the position of military advisor with this one-handed operation!
That's not right... Zhuge Weidao is obviously good at maneuvering and calculating. He could have obtained the position of military adviser long ago, and there was no need to take such a long way around.
Zhuge Weijiu couldn't figure it out after much thought, but he just felt that there must be something weird about this Zhuge Weidao!
"Second brother, do you think this is okay?"
Zhuge Weidao felt a little weak when he saw Zhuge Weijiu frowning and looking at himself. However, he still did not flinch and asked his elder brother.
Since he has already won the position of military advisor, this is not a high requirement!
"Oh..." Zhuge Weijiu responded, then nodded and stretched out two fingers.
"Second brother," Zhuge Weidao looked at the old man's two fingers, "You mean... Natalie and Daheikong want both?"
Zhuge Weijiu smiled: "Both of them must be yes! How can you let such a good thing go?
But the meaning of these two fingers is that I will put pressure on the Dahei family and make Dahei Changshi's daughter wait for you for two years... Within two years, if you can complete the tasks assigned to you by the family , I guarantee that Dahei will always happily give you his daughter as your side wife, and the dowry will not be less than a penny!
Also, you can’t let go of Grand Duchess Natalie! Not only must the matchmaker marry you, but you must also have Nicholas I recognize your marriage to her. Because only in this way will it be possible to obtain the inheritance rights of the Romanov dynasty for you and Natalie's descendants in the future! "
Zhuge Weijiu looked at Zhuge Weidao and said: "This is a big plan that your father has been planning for many years before he was alive. It cannot be ruined in your hands... Do you understand?"
Zhuge Weidao thought for a while and already understood what the old military advisor meant!
According to the current inheritance laws in Western monarchy countries, only children born from the marriage of royal family members are eligible to inherit the throne - of course, the ranking and qualifications in the order of succession are two different things.
In fact, everyone recognizes the bloodline of the Zhuge family - this family is so awesome! Not only did a "demigod" like King Wu Zhong emerge, but also among King Wu Zhong's descendants there were also capable people! They don’t come out one by one, they come out in groups!
If the Zhuge family can get a crown...even if it's just a crown for a small country, then Zhuge Weidao and Natalie's children can legitimately obtain the Nth presumptive inheritance rights of the Romanov dynasty.
Although they are ranked low, once the Rakshasa Empire collapses and all the top-ranked heirs are unsure, Zhuge Weidao's descendants will be able to come out and take charge of the overall situation of Eastern Rakshasa.
"Second brother," Zhuge Weidao laughed, "you are really far-sighted, I admire you!"
Zhuge Weijiu smiled and said: "I am not foresighted, I have a dark heart... But whether my dark heart can come true depends on you!"
"Second brother, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!"
Zhuge Weijiu smiled and said: "Okay... By the way, there will be a big test tomorrow when you go to the Naval Intelligence Bureau for a job! You have to think carefully about what can and cannot be said. I will only say two things. Be careful, be prepared but not fight, the enemy will be tired and weak! Go back and discuss it with Lao Shi, he will cooperate with you.
After you pass the big exam tomorrow, hurry up and finish the good things with Grand Duchess Natalie. Then you go to Europe together, run errands and spend your honeymoon at the same time! "
