at this time.
The inner courtyard of the Guo family.
Jia Yizheng was trapped in the west wing.
I saw her holding one hand behind her back, her back as straight as a sword, and her face full of helplessness: "I told you, I can't marry your daughter, and I can't be your uncle!"
"Why?"
The head of the Guo family is very satisfied with Jia Yi!
Although this boy looks a little more feminine and thinner, he is handsome and matches his daughter very well!
What's more, this uncle has a bright future and is a new member of the Great Xia court!
The Guo family has money now, but what they lack is power!
In the past, merchants were from a lowly position, and there were some things he didn't dare to think about!
However, since the Holy Prince came to power, the status of merchants has been cancelled, and the Guo family has become a family of good men. In addition, all the wealthy families in the imperial capital were almost slaughtered, so the Guo family dared to go to the bottom of the list to catch a golden turtle son-in-law. ah!
If it were before, the Guo family would never dare!
"I do not want to!"
Jia Yi gritted his teeth and said, "I ranked third on the first list of the imperial examination this time, and I am about to take the test in front of His Majesty the Emperor. If your Guo family dares to force me to be my uncle...the court will definitely not let you go!"
"Yeah?"
The head of the Guo family said with a smile but not a smile: "A good son-in-law may not know that the officials who were recommended in the past were caught as sons-in-law, and they all became good stories!"
"The imperial court will never interfere in the matter of catching a son-in-law under the imperial examination!"
"Son-in-law, don't think too much about it!"
Jia Yi was helpless: "Mr. Guo, it's not sweet to force yourself!"
"Yeah?"
"yes!"
"How can you know that a melon that has never been forcibly twisted is not sweet?"
"How about... the good husband-in-law is forced to try?"
Jia Yi: "..."
At this time.
Miss Guo entered the door wearing a bright red wedding robe. Her face was shy, but she saluted gracefully and said, "I have met you husband!"
"I am willing to take care of you all my life and be your caring person!"
Jia Yi admitted that Miss Guo is a beauty!
But she can't marry!
Seeing that Jia Yi didn't speak, Miss Guo's smart eyes moved and she spoke softly: "Mr. Lang, I know you are a foreigner, and you are not at ease when you get married without parents here!"
"You don't have to worry. After we get married today, I will bring my parents-in-law to settle in the imperial capital. Let's buy a big house to serve them, okay?"
"That's right!"
The head of the Guo family also expressed his position: "Don't worry, uncle, our Guo family is not asking you to become a wife, but to marry a daughter!"
"It's just that your parents are not in the imperial capital. Today's happy event will be held at my Guo family!"
"Why......"
Jia Yi could only reach out and pull down the Confucian scarf on his head, letting his black hair fall like a waterfall.
Suddenly.
Miss Guo's eyes widened in shock. She pointed at Jia Yi in disbelief and stammered: "Mr. Lang, you...are you...a woman disguised as a man?"
Patriarch Guo was also shocked!
No wonder he always felt that his uncle was a bit feminine, it turned out he was a woman!
This is how to do?
Jia Yi waved his hands helplessly: "So, you can't force this melon!"
"How could this be?"
Miss Guo's tears fell, her face full of sadness: "Father, what should I do?"
"If word spreads about what happened today...that my daughter snatched a woman back to the wedding room, then my daughter's reputation will be completely ruined!"
"Snapped......"
Patriarch Guo slapped his palm heavily on his thigh, frowning and his eyebrows knitted together!
yes!
This is how to do ah?
The person was snatched back in full view of the public. If the reputation of the Guo family was ruined if a woman was snatched away, the Guo family would be the laughing stock of the world!
How to do this?
at this time.
A servant hurriedly entered the door: "Master, Miss, the housekeeper asked the villain to come in and report... There are some extraordinary guests in the front hall, we need to be more vigilant!"
Immediately afterwards.
The charming maid who had just been serving tea outside came in: "Master, Miss, those people in the front hall are officials!"
"Dozens of court officials in plain clothes are here!"
"What?"
Patriarch Guo and Miss Guo were shocked: "You mean, there are many officials drinking wedding wine in the front hall?"
"yes!"
"And it seems that the official position is not small!"
The charming maid has already made her judgment: "Master Wang and his four sons came to congratulate him, and the plainclothes officials went over to see the ceremony one after another, and their movements were cautious. The Wang family and his son look like they have high official positions!"
"Father, what should I do?"
Miss Guo’s heart is in chaos!
The head of the Guo family doesn’t know either!
Stealing a bride and grabbing an uncle disguised as a man... what is this?
How sad!
at this time.
A clear male voice came from outside the house: "Wang has an idea. I wonder if Patriarch Guo and Miss Guo are willing to listen?"
Identify people by listening to their voices.
Jia Yi's big eyes lit up and he ran to the door in surprise. He looked at Xia Jun's face as if he was seeing a savior: "Brother Wang..."
"younger sister!"
Jia Ren, who was behind Xia Tian, rushed to Jia Yi, his eyes full of worry: "Do you only have Brother Wang in your eyes?"
"You don't even want me as your brother?"
"elder brother......"
Jia Yi's pretty face turned red: "It's my sister who makes my brother worried!"
At this time.
Patriarch Guo and Miss Guo finally came to their senses, looking at Xia Tian as if they were seeing a life-saving straw: "Please give me some advice, I'd like to hear the details!"
Xia Tian walked up to the head of the Guo family: "Jia Yi is a woman, so she cannot become the Guo family's son-in-law!"
"But her brother can!"
Xia Tian pointed at Jia Ren: "Jia Ren, Jia Yi's biological brother, is tenth in the imperial examination high school ranking list, has an unlimited future, and is also the most suitable candidate for Guo's uncle!"
"ah?"
Jia Ren was a little surprised: "Is this the good method that Brother Wang said in the front hall?"
"yes!"
Xia Tian smiled handsomely: "You brothers and sisters are foreigners. If you marry a daughter of the Guo family, you will have a place to stay in the imperial capital and someone will take care of you. This is a good thing!"
"no!"
Jia Ren's face turned solemn: "Brother Wang once said that if you want to be an official and hold power in the court, you can't think about getting rich, and you can't think about making money in business!"
The head of the Guo family was shocked again and again when he heard this!
When he looked at Xia Tian again, his eyes were full of awe!
It’s like seeing through Xia Tian’s disguise!
Hearing this, Xia Tian smiled meaningfully: "If the Guo family were an ordinary merchant family, I would not agree with you marrying their daughter!"
"But the Guo family has a good family tradition, and their daughter can be married!"
Jia Ren finally asked: "Aren't you afraid that our government and businessmen will combine to make profits?"
"Don't be afraid!"
Xia Tian smiled handsomely: "From now on, you can open the door to convenience for the Guo family, make the Guo family's business bigger and bigger, make the world's goods more circulated, so that the people of Daxia will no longer be short of materials, and do your part for the prosperity of Daxia! "
"The imperial court allows some people to get rich first, which will lead to the overall prosperity of the Great Xia Empire!"
"The Guo family must pay taxes, and the tax money will be given back to the poor. You have to be careful about it!"
"If you can do a good job, you will be reused in the future, and the Guo family will definitely become a wealthy family!"
At this point, Xia Tian's smile suddenly faded: "But if you officials and businessmen collude for personal gain, if you neglect the public service for private purposes, if you evade taxes, what is waiting for you is a guillotine!"
"No matter how much money you and the Guo family make, it will still be a waste of your life!"
"Your money will appear in the treasury!"
The murderous intention sent a chill down Jia Ren's spine!
"Do you understand?"
"understood!"
Jia Ren bowed his hands respectfully and said, "My lord, Jia Ren is willing to marry a daughter of the Guo family to set an example for the marriage of officials and businessmen all over the world!"
"If Jia Ren falls in the future, use Jia Ren's head to warn the world!"
"good!"
The smile reappeared on Xia Tian's face: "Master Guo, Jia Ren is the eldest son of Jia. I want to marry you, the legitimate daughter of the Guo family. I will be the matchmaker. Are you willing?"
"willing!"
The head of the Guo family hurriedly said: "For a young master to arrange a marriage for my little girl, it's like smoke rising from the graves of the ancestors of the Guo family. It's such a supreme honor!"
Glancing at the handsome Jia Ren, Miss Guo's pretty face flushed: "I will obey the master in everything!"
"very good!"
Xia Tian turned around and left: "Jia Ren stays in the backyard and prepares to get married!"
"Jia Yi pretends to be a good man and comes out with me!"
"yes!"
Everyone salutes respectfully!
Shortly after.
The front hall of Guo Mansion.
Seeing Jia Ren turning into Jia Yi beside Xia Tian, Emperor Xia smiled meaningfully: "My son's method is good!"
"Today's wedding banquet will be delicious!"
"After eating this wedding banquet, you can put the hearts of many rich people in the world at ease!"
"Those rumors that you hate the rich should disappear!"
"well-done!"
The more Emperor Xia thought about it, the more satisfied he became!
at the same time.
the other side.
In front of the Jixia Underground Palace.
Several mysterious black figures appeared, holding swords and tensely approaching the Nine Dragon Coffin...as if they wanted to do something?
