System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

Zhen Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. The thing that had been worrying her for the past few days was finally settled.

...

In the next few days, since they already knew that they would marry Dong Yu as concubines, the girls changed their way of addressing Dong Yu from brother-in-law to husband.

Although they are not actually husband and wife, now that they have moved into the mansion, it is naturally a foregone conclusion.

It is only a matter of time before the rituals of Duke Zhou are performed.

Dong Yu attached great importance to the Zhen family.

As the ruler of a country, Dong Yu’s concubine could no longer be called a concubine.

Instead, they are uniformly called Madam.

Looking at the other ladies, apart from Liu Mu's grand ceremony, only Cai Ying and he had a simple ceremony in Nanyang.

After all, the Cai family is a big family and should be given a certain amount of respect.

It cannot be as simple and straightforward as marrying other wives.

Dong Yu also attached great importance to the Zhen family.

seven days later

The governor's mansion was decorated with lights and colors, and Dong Yu entertained civil and military officials, as well as major families in Yecheng.

"Everyone, today's banquet is for celebration."

"Since defeating the rebel forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, our army has suffered heavy casualties, and many soldiers are still recuperating."

"So I didn't hold a banquet to celebrate it."

"Now that all the soldiers and brothers have basically recovered from their injuries, it is time to celebrate and congratulate you for your hard work."

Dong Yu stood in the middle of the field, raised the wine bottle and spoke loudly.

"Respect, my lord!"

Generals including Dian Wei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu, Niu Fu, as well as staff members and scholars such as Jia Xu, all raised their glasses.

"Besides, there's one more thing."

"My Dong family is marrying into the Wuji Zhen family and marrying the five Zhen sisters. Since I already have a wife, it's not convenient to hold a grand ceremony."

"Let's take this opportunity to handle this matter together."

Dong Yu announced to everyone with a smile on his face.

Some insiders basically know about the affair between Madam Zhen and their master.

The rest of the aristocratic families looked at each other in surprise.

The Zhen family is just a merchant family. No matter how wealthy they are, they are still not presentable.

But now they have completely turned things around. As long as Dong Yu can gain a foothold in Jizhou, the Zhen family will also prosper in the future.

Some smart people have begun to prepare to make friends with this merchant family that was once looked down upon.

"The third thing."

"I am a former general of the imperial court. This time I have been ordered to suppress the rebels and recapture Jizhou."

"Although the Yuan bandits have been annihilated, Jizhou is still not at peace."

"I hope you can actively recommend talents to help the court stabilize Jizhou."

"The Talent Recruitment Hall is led by Minister Guo Fengxiao."

After Dong Yu finished drinking the wine in the cup, he poured another bottle and spoke again in a loud voice.

"As citizens of the Han Dynasty, we must serve our country with all our might and serve the general with all our strength."

All those who can become the head of many aristocratic families, big or small, are smart people.

Be positive, you must be positive!

If you are not proactive now, will you wait until a knife is placed on your neck before you become proactive?

When they heard that Dong Yu wanted to promote talents, they were naturally happy to see it.

Even if they are not happy to see it, they have to respond.

Who dares to reason with the Dong family?

Even if people say all the nice things to you, you still don't appreciate it.

Hasn’t Luoyang bled enough?

Besides, haven’t so many families been trembling in fear for so many days just waiting for this moment?

They are not like those top wealthy families who are enemies with the Dong family in order to fight for the world.

The reason why Dong Yu did this was to stabilize Jizhou as soon as possible.

Weakening the aristocratic families is something we should do after pacifying the world. Now, we must take advantage of them.

What's more, most of these are influential families in the local area, rather than top families like Yuan Shao and Yang Biao who have influence in the whole world.

Status determines whether a man’s life will be happy or miserable.

After the banquet a few days ago, Dong Yu really indulged himself for a few days.

Dong Yu picked the five delicate buds as he pleased, like a hardworking little bee.

A bite here, a bite there.
