Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

Although the new emperor doesn't seem to have any intention in this regard at the moment, I still have to be cautious.

And what his mother left him may be more important than what she left any of his brothers.

That is the key for the Nan family to revive when necessary.

The eldest son, Nan Xichen, got married when he was almost 30. There was no other way, this "mama's boy" was determined to let his mother find him a wife.

Nan Xi really couldn't outlast her.

Later, through Liu Rugu's intelligence network, Nan Xi actually found out about a very interesting girl.

It was Chen Linzhi, the daughter of the Prime Minister of the current dynasty.

Chen Linzhi was already twenty years old this year, but she was still unmarried and had a bad reputation.

It was said that she was disrespectful to her stepmother and did not get along well with her brothers and sisters.

But after careful investigation, it turned out that this girl had some connection with her.

It turns out that Chen Linzhi's deceased biological mother was none other than Sun Yunyun, who had stood up for Nan Xi at Madam Zhao's funeral.

Sun Yunyun's husband, Lord Chen, was Zhao Wenxuan's immediate superior. With the absence of this powerful rival from his previous life, it is not surprising that Lord Chen became the Prime Minister.

Chen Yunyun had lost a son and a daughter in infancy, but after that mourning ceremony, she desperately tried her best to conceive again. She desperately hoped to give birth to a legitimate son so that he could hold his head high and become her first wife.

But as the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

After ten months of pregnancy, she gave birth to a daughter, and Sun Yunyun's anger suddenly dissipated.

In addition, she had to fight with her concubines while she was pregnant, and she was somewhat plotted against. She passed away within a few years.

Fortunately, although Sun Yunyun was disappointed to give birth to a daughter, she still poured all her maternal love into Chen Linzhi.

Before Sun Yunyun passed away, she took great pains to make arrangements for her daughter.

So over the years, although she had no biological mother, Chen Linzhi grew up successfully with the protection of the loyal servants left by Sun Yunyun and her maternal grandfather who was the Minister of Rites.

And he developed a personality that was not easy to mess with.

After his wife passed away, although Lord Chen never remarried, he had concubines who took turns to favor him.

Even the household supplies in the mansion were handed over to Concubine Li, who was extremely favored when the wife was alive.

The eldest son and daughter in the mansion were both born to Concubine Li.

Aunt Li was just of a lower birth, so she couldn't be publicly promoted as the wife.

Lord Li has never cared about the affairs of the inner house, and he is even less concerned about his daughters.

It would be the same even if this only legitimate daughter lost her mother.

Over the years, many people in the Chen family's backyard have tried to take advantage of Chen Linzhi, both openly and secretly.

Fortunately, Chen Linzhi has always kept the dowry left by her mother firmly in her own hands, and she is an expert in business and housekeeping.

Later, the little girl grew up and no one in the mansion worried about her marriage.

Chen Linzhi simply took away Aunt Li's housekeeper power.

Life is better now, but I have wasted my time and become an old maid.

In the past two years, Prime Minister Li listened to the whispers of his new concubine and felt that it would be shameful to keep her in the mansion any longer. He had already thought of marrying her to someone else.

In desperation, Chen Linzhi had to swallow her pride and sent someone to give money to a famous matchmaker in the capital to help keep an eye on the match.

When Nan Xi heard this, she wanted to meet this girl.

When they finally met and chatted briefly, Nan Xi immediately decided on the marriage and the next day she sent an official matchmaker to propose to the Chen family.

Prime Minister Chen was naturally extremely surprised.

He thought his daughter would never get married, but unexpectedly, Princess Yue'an actually took a fancy to her.

From then on, he was not only the Prime Minister of the dynasty, but also the father-in-law of the King of Zhenbei.

When the news reached the Northern Territory, Nan Xichen obediently returned to Kyoto to get married. He stayed in the capital for more than two months until Princess Chen Linzhi was diagnosed with pregnancy, at which point he returned to the Northern Territory alone.

After Chen Linzhi got married, she was indeed an expert in managing the household and running the affairs of the board. She was also generous and decisive. Nan Xi was very satisfied with her and felt that she was much better than her mother Chen Yunyun.

As for the only daughter, Nan Xiyue, she moved out to live separately after her eldest brother Nan Xichen got married.

Nan Xiyue was quite experienced in doing business, so Nan Xi left the business empire that spanned the whole country to her.

Princess Xuanyuan Heqing and Nan Xiyue have been able to play together since they were young, and when they grew up they had similar interests (mainly they both liked handsome men).

In order to have more fun together, after Nan Xiyue generously donated 200,000 taels of silver to the southern flood relief efforts, the eldest princess went to the emperor and asked for the title of princess for her best friend.

These two people never got married in their entire lives, and even when they were old, they remained a pair of best friends who were in cahoots with each other.

There are two other people who also never got married in this life, but are still talked about by others.

It is said that Liu Rugu, the famous "Mr. Rugu" in the capital, is from an unknown place in the capital.

He entered school at a young age and passed the examinations all the way from a scholar to a juren and finally a jinshi. He won the top three places in the imperial examinations and became famous, but he refused to take any further steps and only wanted to be a rich and noble young man for the rest of his life.

He was a playboy, but he never married. The strangest thing was that his sister Liu Xiang, who called herself "Madam Xiang" and was wealthy, also never married.

As a result, the brother and sister inevitably became the subject of discussion and sighing among people after dinner.

It is said that a hundred years later, when these two siblings have earned such a huge fortune, no one knows who will benefit from it.

Nan Xi was a little distressed about this.

Chuntao, Qiutong, Zhiqiao and Zhixiao have all been married successfully, so why are these siblings still clinging to each other?

She could ignore Ma Xiaosi, but she still wanted Xia Zhu to have a good home in this life.

Could it be that these two were attracted to each other, and by some strange coincidence she was arranged to be siblings?

But she asked Xia Zhu several times, and Xia Zhu said firmly that she simply didn't want to get married, so Nan Xi just let her do it.

He only gave Xia Zhu one-tenth of the profits from all the businesses he managed. Similarly, he also gave Ma Xiaosi, the intelligence agency run by Liu Rugu, one-tenth of the profits.

The fact is that Xia Zhu suddenly awakened his past life memories on the day Min Rouer died.

Comparing everything that happened in her life, she had already guessed that her master had changed his mind.

But she told no one.

In her heart, she is just Liu Xiang in this life, and Nan Xi is her only master.

The master not only avenged her former master, but also avenged her in her previous life and gave herself a completely different life.

She wants to use this life to repay Nan Xi.

But Liu Rugu actually thought more simply.

He was originally an orphan who could barely afford to eat. The eldest daughter was like his second parent, giving him everything he could not even dream of.

Therefore, everything he had to do from now on must belong to the eldest daughter and the Nan family. But if he became an official, some things would be beyond his control.

Once married, he inevitably had to divide his energy between his wife and children, and was also tied up with complicated relationships. In his life, he only wanted to serve the eldest lady well.

As for his "sister" Liu Xiang, it was because of the status ties and the inevitable business dealings. After spending a long time together, he had some feelings for her.

But not much.

Besides, he could see that Liu Xiang didn't mean that.

So the two maintained a strange relationship throughout their lives.

Support each other, but don't cross the line; there is family affection and friendship, but it can't be called love.

Nan Xi successfully completed the mission in the first small world. Before she could react and catch her breath, she was taken to the next small world by the 999 system.
