Jia Zheng was a little shocked when he heard it, and then a little angry.
He was a little complacent about marrying into the Prince of Nan'an before.
I think a concubine can also marry into the prince's palace.
Although she is not a princess, she is still the royal grandson-in-law.
The most important thing is that the two families have been close relatives for many years and know each other well.
As an old father, he naturally didn't say anything.
But what do you say now?
The Nan'an Prince's Palace was replaced by the Donghai County Prince's Palace?
Although it is still a royal palace, Donghai County is far away in a barren land overseas.
Not to mention the place where she was born, she would still be a concubine when she got married.
The key is to catch up?
According to Princess Nan'an's wishes, the Jia family still needs to show her gratitude?
"We don't have any friendship with Donghai County, so we can't just marry him with a black eye."
Jia Zheng shook his head slightly and said:
"Besides, Tan girl is still young, so there is no need to rush her marriage."
Such obvious resistance made Jia Mu frown, but she didn't say anything.
Marrying or not marrying has little impact on the Jia family.
For families like the Jia family, marriage is a way to maintain relationships.
But it’s just the icing on the cake.
The prerequisite for a marriage to be effective is that there is a certain amount of friendship.
However, there has been no contact between Donghai County and Jia Mansion.
Even if you marry a daughter, it may not have any effect.
What's more, she's just a concubine.
"I heard that although Donghai County is a barren land, the prince of Donghai County is rich all over the world. Moreover, he is a hereditary and irreplaceable prince. His theory is stronger than that of Nan'an Prince's Palace."
Come and try it quickly. 】
Mrs. Wang obviously had a different view and said:
"It might not be a good thing if Tan girl can really take charge of things after marrying her."
In her opinion, Tanchun is just a concubine.
If it were her marriage, she would be related to a county king.
It is definitely a benefit without any expense.
Even if you can't see any benefits for the time being, there is absolutely no harm.
Who knows when this relationship will be put to use.
"What's a good thing? What's a good thing about marrying overseas? How many times have you been on a ship?"
Jia Zheng had a hard time sailing in the past two years and was full of resentment.
"Besides, Tan girl can't marry into any family now, so she has to marry in a foreign country?"
Although he didn't say it, the meaning was obvious.
Tanchun will be the prince's aunt in the future, or even the prince or the emperor's aunt.
With this level of status, you can't choose randomly in the capital?
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Zheng and sneered:
"Tan girl is still a concubine after all. If she really becomes the concubine of the county prince, she will take advantage of the eldest girl. It is not an insult to her."
After a pause, she continued:
"If the Jia family has overseas business, the Xue family's money can be paid back faster."
As soon as these words came out, Jia Zheng was speechless.
The Jia family has long since bottomed out, and now it is still relying on the money Mrs. Wang borrowed from the Xue family to barely maintain dignity.
"Let's not talk about money or not. At worst, I will subsidize the coffin, so I will give it back to the Xue family first!"
Mother Jia couldn't see that her youngest son was depressed, so she knocked Mrs. Wang with some dissatisfaction and said:
"Normally, you parents, I don't care who your daughter chooses, but I don't know what Donghai County is like, so it would be a bit hasty to make a decision directly."
He said he didn't care, but actually he still helped his younger son talk.
Mrs. Wang can refute Jia Zheng, but she will not refute Jia Mu face to face.
Originally, at this point, the trouble was over.
But when Jia Zheng heard his mother's words, he nodded with deep understanding and said:
"Yes, yes, that's what I mean."
Having said this, he said to the royal wife in a serious tone:
"We have already taken advantage of the eldest daughter. I don't dare to think that the other children will be rich and powerful. I just hope that they can find a family who knows their roots."
Mrs. Wang frowned and suddenly said:
"If you just don't know the basics, why don't you ask him if the Duke of Donghai and Feng Yuan have a close relationship?"
Jia Zheng's words were originally intended to seal the deal, but they unexpectedly inspired Mrs. Wang.
The mother and son looked at each other at this and were unable to say anything to refute.
Jia Zheng thought for a while and decided that it was okay to ask.
Feng Yibo is also a real relative, just tell him not to tell nonsense.
Then Jia Zheng sent someone to ask Feng Yibo to speak in the name of Jia's mother.
When Feng Yibo received the message, he was inevitably a little confused.
Could it be that because of the red sandalwood Buddha statue, the other party felt it was too precious and wanted to thank him in person?
That's not the case, is it?
Although this bottle of Buddha statue is the best red sandalwood, it is extremely precious.
But for a family like Jia's family, it wouldn't be a big surprise, right?
When he arrived at Rong Mansion, he was led through the hall and straight to Jia Mu's house.
But there were only three people in the room, Jia Mu, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, not even a maid to serve them.
Feng Yibo suddenly became more confused.
He quickly stepped forward to greet him and said:
"I've met the old lady, I've met my uncle and aunt."
Although he married Baochai, Feng Yibo did not change his tune.
The title is still discussed from Li Shouzhong's side.
It's not because Baochai didn't kiss her, but Daiyu also kissed her.
If we talk about it from Baochai's side, he will naturally be closer to Mrs. Wang.
It's time to call aunt and uncle.
But from Daiyu's side, Jia Zheng is more intimate.
It’s time to call uncle and aunt.
But if everyone talks about their own affairs, one should be called uncle and the other aunt.
The two of them were immediately separated.
This kind of behavior is not done by real relatives.
So no matter which side you start talking about, it will seem a little distant from the other side.
Feng Yibo simply continued to argue from Li Shouzhong's side, and no one could find fault.
"Yibo, there were so many people who came to celebrate my birthday in the past few days, I'm afraid the reception was not good. Today, my mother mentioned you, so she asked you to come over and talk."
When Jia Zheng came up, he smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries.
When Feng Yibo heard this, he quickly said:
"Uncle, what did you say? Whether it's my mentor, Baochai or Daiyu, we are all real relatives. Yibo already feels a little guilty for not helping us with the work."
Although his official position is higher than that of Jia Zheng, he is still a junior after all.
The proper etiquette cannot be omitted.
In fact, Feng Yibo really offered to help.
But after Jia Lian reported back, he was rejected by his elders.
When Jia Mu heard this, she smiled and said:
"I know you are busy now, and all the men in the Jia family have come to help again, so I don't dare to delay you this time."
These words were not sarcastic, but meant not to treat Feng Yibo as an outsider.
After saying that, she also said:
"Besides, I had to thank you for your help in the incident involving Mr. Ning Mansion last time."
Jia Jing's affairs were mainly handled by Youshi, but it was also thanks to Feng Yibo who ran forward and backward.
Otherwise, there won't even be a man, and people will inevitably laugh at the fact that there is no one in the Jia family.
When Feng Yibo heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly and said:
"We are all a family. You are welcome. The elders will just call me whenever they can."
A flower bloomed on Jia Mu's face, and she continued:
"Okay, you are a good boy."
After chatting for a while, Jia Zheng couldn't help but get down to the topic and said:
"By the way, Yibo, I heard that you have a close relationship with the Prince of Donghai, and no one has ever seen this Prince except you."
Having said this, he paused slightly and then said cautiously:
"I wonder, what kind of person is this county prince?"
Feng Yibo was a little confused, and he didn't know why he suddenly mentioned the Duke of Donghai.
Could it be that the Jia family intends to get involved in the maritime business?
He didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd here, so he said casually:
"Prince Donghai... he is a noble person, a moral person, a pure person, a person who has escaped from vulgar taste, a person who is beneficial to..."
At this point, he paused for a moment before continuing:
"Well, it is beneficial to people in Wei."
The three of them looked at each other after hearing this, and they all saw their own surprise.
Jia Zheng frowned slightly and said in disbelief:
"Yibo thinks so highly of this person?"
Any one of these descriptions is the best.
But if they are all stacked together, it will inevitably make people feel empty.
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Feng Yibo opened his mouth:
"The original purpose of the King of Donghai County was not to become king and hegemon, but to ensure the stability of Jiangnan elders and organize manpower to deal with Japanese pirates."
Having said this, he smiled slightly and asked:
"Is it noble to stand up at critical moments?"
When Jia Zheng heard this, he only hesitated for a moment and then said:
"This... is naturally noble."
If defending the country is not noble, what else is noble?
"After gaining strength, the King of Donghai County restrained his subordinates and never harassed the Weihai territory."
Feng Yibo smiled and asked again:
"Is it moral to not rely on force to obtain benefits?"
Jia Zheng nodded and sighed:
"He is indeed a role model for our generation."
Not relying on force to act recklessly shows his bottom line.
This is the way of the heart.
He has absolute force in his hands, but he knows what money should be taken and what money should not be taken.
This is serious virtue.
Master the force without being immoral, and do not take ill-gotten wealth.
If this is not morality, what else is morality?
"Even now, he still has no thoughts and is devoted to the welfare of Jiangnan's fathers. Countless people have flocked to him."
Feng Yibo asked again with a smile:
"Isn't this pure?"
Jia Zheng has been said to have lost his temper and has become a nodding machine.
"Serve the people wholeheartedly, and the people's hearts will be there."
What the people want is what the government will do.
This is not pure, what else is pure?
"He fully supports the people under his rule and allows them to live a prosperous life. He even distributes food rations to the people who immigrate, and he does not reject anyone who comes. The more people come, the happier he is!"
These words were a bit boastful, but Feng Yibo still smiled and asked:
"Does taking pleasure in this break away from vulgar taste?"
Jia Zheng was already confused by the question. He nodded first and then said:
"In the past, there was Fan Wenzheng who 'worried about the world's worries first', and now there is the King of Donghai County who 'takes pleasure in the happiness of the people'!"
He takes pleasure in the prosperity of his people. The more wealthy people there are, the happier he is.
This kind of taste is more than just out of vulgarity?
Simply beyond premium!
Feng Yibo also took a breath before asking the last sentence:
"In the end, he took the territory of one county and two mansions and voted for the Wei Dynasty. Is this beneficial to the Wei Dynasty?"
Fortunately, these are the five sentences. I won’t be able to make up one more sentence.
This last sentence is the ironclad fact.
Jia Zheng was unable to comment for the moment.
After holding it in for a long time, he said:
"Well...how old is he this year?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Wang looked at each other.
Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law understood that Jia Zheng had been persuaded.
"Um? How big is it?"
Feng Yibo didn't react.
Mrs. Wang frowned slightly and reminded:
"age."
"Oh oh oh!"
Feng Yibo suddenly realized and quickly replied:
"He's about the same age as me, around 20."
I don’t know the age, they are the same age everywhere!
In fact, it's no wonder that Feng Yibo was a little confused.
We were just talking about character, so why did we turn to the issue of "not relevant"?
After asking about character and age, what are you doing?
Upon hearing that he was only about twenty years old, the three of them nodded almost at the same time.
Jia Mu, who didn't speak much, couldn't help but praise:
"It turns out that the King of Donghai County is so old!"
Not to mention those in the Jia family who don't care about worldly affairs, even many important officials in the court don't know!
Almost everyone agreed that the Prince of Donghai County who had achieved such an achievement was at least a man in his forties.
Now listen to Feng Yibo, he is only twenty years old!
It’s unimaginable!
When Jia Zheng heard this, he also praised:
"You are really ambitious but not young!"
He was still savoring Feng Yibo's words just now, and he felt that the Prince of Donghai County was really amazing.
Now when I heard that I was only twenty years old, I felt frustrated.
When he was twenty years old, he was still a man of poetry, wine and ecstasy.
What he does throughout the day is only better than Baoyu.
Still limited and tight.
Speaking of Baoyu, I should be tighter.
Otherwise, wouldn’t I be like this in the future?
When Mrs. Wang heard Jia Zheng's praise, she quickly took advantage of the opportunity and said:
"Since Yibo said so, then the Prince of Donghai County must not be wrong."
She is most positive about Tanchun's marriage, and it is not because Mrs. Wang is short-sighted.
On the contrary, among several people, she was the only one who could look at this matter without personal feelings.
After all, Tanchun was raised by Jia's mother, so she was somewhat reluctant to let him go.
Jia Zheng considered Aunt Zhao and did not want to marry Chun Yuan.
Only Mrs. Wang, the legitimate mother, starts from a rational level.
Marry a real prince, even if it's just a concubine.
It's better than going to Nan'an Prince's Mansion to be a legitimate grandson-in-law.
Of course, this strength does not mean whether it is good to marry in spring or not.
It's about whether it's good for Jia's family or not.
Even if they are not married to each other in Nan'an Prince's Mansion, they are still old relatives who have known each other for many years.
Whether or not there is such a relationship, we all need to take care of each other.
The Prince of Donghai County is the most mysterious existence in the Wei Dynasty. Countless people want to see him but never see him.
If the Jia family marries him, there may be unexpected gains.
At least there is one more natural ally.
And the allies of Jia's family are Yuanchun's allies.
This is the reason why Mrs. Wang insisted on the marriage.
"this……"
Jia Zheng was still hesitant after hearing this.
Admiration is admiration, and a married woman is a married woman.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wang raised her eyebrows and asked:
"What? Don't you still believe what Yibo said?"
This is not a provocation, but another warning to Jia Zheng to stop as soon as he sees fit.
That's almost it!
Although Jia Zheng was slow, he was somewhat sensitive to Mrs. Wang's words.
Hearing this, he felt a little embarrassed.
At that moment, he looked at Feng Yibo again and said:
"Is Prince Donghai really so good?"
What he meant was to ask if there was anything else.
Unexpectedly, when Feng Yibo heard this, he smiled confidently and said:
"No one understands Prince Donghai better than me!"
Indeed, no one knows better than him, after all, he is the king of Donghai County.
These words were so unquestionable that Jia Zheng was too embarrassed to ask any more questions.
Jia Mu nodded when she heard this and said:
"That's true. If you don't know each other, how can you persuade him to surrender his land?"
Mrs. Wang struck while the iron was hot, gently pushed Jia Zheng and said:
"Master, the matter of exploring the girl is settled!"
? ? ?
Feng Yibo was confused.
Why did the Prince of Donghai County lead to Tan Yatou again?
"well!"
Jia Zheng sighed and said:
"Originally I was hesitant, but since Yibo knows him well, I will believe Yibo's words!"
Feng Yibo wanted to stop him, but he smacked his lips, but for a moment he didn't know what he was stopping.
At this time, Jia Zheng did not shy away. He nodded directly to Jia Mu and said:
"Mother, please reply to Princess Nan'an and see if our Jia Mansion and Donghai County have such a fate!"
