Chapter 473 Light and Dark23
The voice slowly said: "Our Zhang family's rules prohibit you from taking concubines for life.
The people that the men of the Zhang family marry are basically the ones they love.
Only I was an accident. My grandfather used my marriage to settle the cause and effect between him and Emperor Song.
So, I married your mother first, and then married your aunt Lan after I realized my mistake.
As for your Aunt Zhu, she is the most innocent. She only got involved in this mess because two tigers were hurting each other and needed your Aunt Zhu to mediate and form a three-legged tripod. "
He sighed deeply: "You don't have these pressures, you can rest assured to marry the woman you like."
Zhang Langzhi was about to explain, but Qiuqiu waved his hand and continued:
"Your grandfather's death was only one of the reasons why our family was destroyed.
I teach you how to survive in the wild just so that you have a chance to save your life at the last moment.
The foundation of our Zhang family has never been the position of Duke, but the mysterious magic left by our ancestors.
You are not very qualified in this area, and I don't have too many requirements.
On the contrary, because you have mediocre metaphysical talent and no bloodline of the Song Emperor, I can safely pass the title of Duke to you, so that the higher-ups can also feel more at ease."
Qiuqiu listened to the crackling sound of the candlelight and said slowly, "Your aunt was born with the fate of a phoenix, but when she was six years old, her soul was moved and her fate was changed.
When your second brother was seven or eight years old, he was infected with a rare poisonous insect. This is the method that has been discovered against us, and the unknown dangers are even more terrifying.
I have tried my best to find a way out for you brothers and sisters.
Now, only you and the eight-year-old siblings Jinzhi and Lizhi have not yet determined the direction of their future development. This is also to find a way out for you.
Our Zhang family originally had no chance to change our fate. Three calculations showed that our family was destroyed and everyone died. My own life was also hanging by a thread.
But before leaving the capital, I saw the causal line of Concubine Xi stealing your aunt's fate from her in the palace.
By grasping this cause and effect, we can find a glimmer of hope for our Zhang family. However, this glimmer of hope is so vague that we don't know what the future holds.
So, marrying a girl from the Qi family is not sure whether it will be a blessing or a curse for her. However, if there are any changes in the Duke's Mansion in the future, the Qi family is a family that loves their children. You can bring your mother and sister here for refuge, which is also a way out."
Zhang Langzhi had no idea that the Zhang family was in such a difficult situation, so he had no intention of getting married. "Father, who is targeting our Zhang family?"
Qiuqiu pointed to the sky and said, "In the court, we are already dukes. Who else can really deal with us?"
Zhang Langzhi clenched his fists dejectedly, muttering, "Why? On what grounds?!"
Qiuqiu put down the teacup in his hand heavily, and with a snap, he woke Langzhi and said in a low voice: "Narrow-mindedness, eradication of dissidents, and abandonment of the running dog after the cunning rabbit dies are all excuses. You can interpret it however you want."
This kid has been traveling for nearly two years, how come he's still so impatient and unstable?
"Do you still want to marry a girl from the Qi family?"
"Father, is it because our second brother is an orphan from the previous dynasty?" the two answered at the same time.
Qiuqiu said calmly: "Maybe, the orphan of the previous dynasty, the Li family didn't think about it, they were able to seize the Song family's kingdom legitimately, isn't it just under the guise of revenge for the Song family's son-in-law!
This behavior of eating with the bowl in hand and cursing after putting it down is truly despicable.
The Li family is so immoral that the dynasty’s luck will be exhausted sooner or later.
The Zhang family has settled down and lives in seclusion, and will no longer participate in the struggle for imperial power. So, will you still marry the girl from the Qi family?"
Zhang Langzhi avoided answering and instead asked, "Are the Song brothers who were adopted still considered members of the Zhang family?"
Qiuqiu looked at his eldest son carefully and saw through his thoughts: "Those who are adopted out certainly don't count!"
He waved his hand listlessly: "If you have nothing to do, go back and have a rest. We will go back the day after tomorrow.
Send Song Ruizhi to the Northwest Army to save him from having nowhere to use his energy and getting into fights all the time. If you have nothing to do, you can also join the army."
When Zhang Langzhi heard about joining the army, he immediately became timid: "Dad, I still want to marry a girl from the Qi family, and I also want to take part in the provincial examination next year."
Qiuqiu nodded in agreement: "Alright, follow the path of a civil official and marry the daughter of a military commander. No matter what the higher-ups think, you can only be an honest and inactive duke."
"I will mention this directly to General Qi tomorrow. If our horoscopes are compatible, I will finalize your marriage."
Zhang Langzhi was truly grateful: "Thank you, Dad. You should have a good rest and drink less strong tea."
Before Zhang Langzhi left, Qiuqiu said to him, "I, your younger aunt, your older aunt Wen Yuanzhi, and your uncle, we all have short lives.
The peace and stability we have these days are all bought with our lives.
You and Ruizhi need to grow up quickly and take responsibility for this family.
After your mother and Aunt Lan's identities were swapped, their horizons became too narrow. Your Aunt Zhu is just a business genius, and there is no one to guide you in politics! The Zhang family still depends on you and your brothers and sisters to support it."
Zhang Langzhi felt that his father valued him, and the burden on his shoulders became heavier, but he still felt happy.
The next day, General Qi received Duke Anguo. General Qi's wife vaguely mentioned the marriage of Qi Sanyue and Zhang Langzhi to Zhu Wanwan. After being glared at by General Qi for several times, she finally calmed down. Everyone could see the grievance and sadness in her eyes.
Qiuqiu was frank: "Brother Qi, we don't need to say much about how important a girl's reputation is. As the saying goes, a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's body.
The girl from the Qi family is kind and strong. She is a good person, but it also depends on fate.
However, in addition to character, the Zhang family values birth date and eight characters the most, so could you please give me your daughter's birth date and eight characters so I can calculate it?
I'll leave Langzhi's horoscope with you, too, and you can find someone to match it with." He expressed his best efforts, without a single word of excuse.
Mrs. Qi wiped her tears with gratitude and asked the nanny beside her to quickly get Miss Qi's birth date and horoscope.
Qiuqiu directly wrote down Zhang Langzhi's birth date and gave it to General Qi, who was also very excited.
"I have no choice but to push my luck. My Qi family has also received a favor. Regardless of whether my daughter and Master Zhang are destined to be together, my Qi family owes the Zhang family three times the favor."
Saving Qi Sanyue, giving the elixir recipe to Qi Yuenu, asking for a marriage alliance with Sanyue, and protecting the girl from rumors are three favors.
Qiuqiu calculated with her fingers and found that Qi Sanyue's horoscope was a good match for Zhang Langzhi. They just had to wait for the Qi family to agree, and then the two families could officially make the decision.
Zhu Wanwan will handle the engagement arrangements, and Qiuqiu only needs to attend important occasions.
During this trip to Sanjie Mountain, we found several extinct body-tempering medicinal herbs, and each of them was refined into body-tempering pills.
The very effective and low-cost Yunnan Baiyao was also formulated.
He gave the Yunnan Baiyao he made, along with the recipe, to his future daughter-in-law, Qi Sanyue, as part of the engagement ceremony. This moved the Qi family so much that they were completely won over.
