Chapter 268 Love and Marriage

In the evening of that day, Zhou Jun set up a warm cauldron in the side hall and prepared fine wine.

When the sun sets, Song Ruoe and Xie Qin rushed back from Huaqionglou, entered the hall together, and told Zhou Jun all the best.

When Zhou Jun saw that the two girls had changed into shirts and robe, he dressed up carefully again, but he was fighting for beauty and showing off his beauty.

After Huayue and Qingchan brought the ingredients in, Zhou Jun called everyone to the table while pouring warm wine.

After Song Ruoe sat down, she said to Zhou Jun: "Next 15th, a new drama will be staged in Huaqiong Tower, and Erlang will definitely come and support him."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jun asked, "What is the name of the playbook?"

Song Ruo'e said: "The Legend of White Snake."

Zhou Jun was stunned at first, and then said, "That story is interesting, and it has been passed by the lay Buddhists. I am afraid that once it is staged, it will be sung in Chang'an for a long time."

Huayue, who was drinking fruit tea, was interested when she heard this and asked Zhou Jun: "What kind of story are you talking about?"

Zhou Jun: "A snake fell in love with someone."

When Huayue heard this, she almost vomited out the fruit tea in her mouth.

When Song Ruoe saw Huayue's appearance, she couldn't help but clap her hands and smile.

Hua Yue sorted out her clothes, then frowned and asked, "There were dramas that described human-beast love in ancient Rome, but can the Tang people accept it?"

Zhou Jun waved his hand and said, "This story is a bit different. In short, you will know it when you go and read it."

Xie Qin, who had been eating vegetables quietly, said to Zhou Jun: "I heard that the Kang family in Liangzhou was plotting to rebel. Hundreds of people in the family were executed, and thousands of people were regarded as official slaves."

Zhou Jun was shocked. The Kang family plotted to rebel because it involved the nine surnames of Zhaowu. Therefore, when dealing with the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple, they acted secretly to minimize the popularity of the incident. Jie Qin was in Bachuan and could actually know about this.

Zhou Jun said to Xie Qin as usual: "There is indeed this, but not many people know about it."

Xie Qin: "Grand officials and merchants often talk about political affairs and secrets at banquets. Since it is a banquet, musicians and operas are naturally indispensable. Therefore, when Xie Qin was appointed as an official envoy, he also obtained this news through this method."

Zhou Jun pondered for a moment, and did not intend to circle around again, and asked Xie Qin directly: "Which method was used to obtain information in the Beili of Pingkangfang?"

Xie Qin: "Yes, for example, She Hongzhi from Beili and Nanqu, has Duzhi and Hongjiao on the table, but behind her is the right prime minister's eyeliner. Her subordinates teach a large number of girls to inquire about the news."

Zhou Jun: "In other words, Huaqionglou can also refer to this method to seize information?"

Xie Qin nodded and said, "Huaqiong Tower can not only refer to Beili, but also have more advantages than Beili. Erlang, you think that the situation in Chang'an is complicated, and the eyeliners of various forces have long been spread throughout every corner of the city. Especially in places like Pingkangfang, the right prime minister, prince, palace and military governors have all bought or raised a lot of fine works. Therefore, it is almost impossible to arrange eyeliners."

"Let's talk about Huaqiong Tower, which is not far from Chang'an. You can go back and forth on the same day by boat. It is a newly built market. There is no curfew and you rarely meet the censors and censors. Therefore, Beijing officials, princes and patrol officials prefer to come to Bachuan to hold banquets and discuss important matters."

Zhou Jun thought carefully and asked Xie Qin again: "Huaqionglou was bought by Beili's fake mother, and the little girl there was also sent by Beili. If she was taught, would there be risks?"

Xie Qin knew what Zhou Jun was worried about, so she replied: "When the Huaqiong Tower was built, I had already agreed with the fake mothers in Beili. Since I had promised that I would know the position, then I will decide the candidates for musicians, traitors, etc., and others will not interfere."

Speaking of this, Xie Qin looked at Huayue again and continued, "Huayue and I have screened the people sent by Beili, Huayue and I have removed many unstable people, leaving only the innocent little girl."

Huayue also said to Zhou Jun at this time: "I have also conducted investigations on those fake mothers in Beili who participated in the construction of Huaqiong Tower. There is no master behind it, but they are all financial owners who only seek wealth."

After hearing this, Zhou Jun asked Huayue: "Since that's the case, why didn't the Villa build solely when the Huaqiong Tower was built? But he wanted to introduce the fake mother from Beili as the financial owner?"

Jie Qin answered this question: "Whenever musicians come to serve as officials, the Jiaofang needs to issue a list of musicians and the master's house. If the Huaqiong Tower was built by a villa, the host of the banquet could see the names of Pang Gong or Erlang on the Kanlu of the official envoy, which would probably attract unnecessary attention."

Zhou Jun understood: "So, the introduction of Beili fake mothers as the financial owners of Huaqionglou is actually taking them as a cover in order to reduce people's vigilance against Huaqionglou and make others not beware of it."

Jie Qin nodded: "That's the reason." Zhou Jun was silent for a while, looked at Jie Qin, and said helplessly: "This matter is not a small risk, you don't need to do this."

Xie Qin looked at the others present and said to Zhou Jun with a smile: "I am not as good as a layperson in terms of outstanding talents; I am not as good as a painting moon in terms of management of family business; I am not as good as Qingchan in terms of literature, discipline and government... Erlang has been with me for a long time, and after thinking about it, he can only help with the position of everyone.

Zhou Jun wanted to speak out and persuade him again.

Xie Qin also said: "I am a daughter. I don't understand the major affairs of my family and country. I just talked with Huayue a few times and knew that Erlang was in love with the people and walked with all the way. He thought about doing his best and doing his best."

Zhou Jun put down the wine glass in his hand, first glanced at Huayue, who was hanging his head and silently, then looked at Jie Qin, who was smiling. Thousands of words finally turned into a sigh.

After dinner, Song Ruoe and Xie Qin returned to their residence in the villa, and Xiao Qingchan went to clean up the tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks.

Zhou Jun came to the bedroom, looked at Huayue who was tidying up the bed, and asked in a low voice: "Is it your idea for Xieqin?"

Huayue's movements in her hand remained unstoppable: "I started it from me, but she agreed in the end."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhou Jun: "You should also know what I am doing. The danger is not enough to tell others, so why bother her?"

Huayue: "Do Erlang really don't know? Or do you do it intentionally?"

Zhou Junqi said: "What do you know?"

Huayue stopped and turned to Zhou Jun and said, "Everyone knows that it is wrong to put it in Beili, but she wants to come to Bachuan to start from scratch. She has worked hard to train those little girls who don't know anything... Erlang really thinks that Xie Qin is doing this for Song Ruoe?"

Zhou Jun was silent for a moment.

When Huayue saw Zhou Jun's expression, she said with a headache: "The women of the Tang Dynasty are so troublesome. If you don't say anything, you have to bury them in your heart. In the end, they will still suffer."

Zhou Jun hesitated for a moment and said to Huayue: "The road I want to take is probably bumpy and bumpy. Xie Qin could have been out of the matter."

Huayue stared at Zhou Jun and shook her head and said, "I just met before, and I said that Erlang didn't understand women. Now these years have passed, but he has not made any progress."

Zhou Jun was speechless after being robbed by Huayue.

Huayue sighed, bent down and continued to pack up the bedding: "The word "love" is the first, and there is no such thing as considering and deliberating. It is the most important thing to be with you. The marriage of the Tang Dynasty always has to be divided among women, which makes the women in the Tang Dynasty worry about gains and losses."

Zhou Jun looked at Huayue and asked, "How is the big food marriage?"

Pao Yue paused.

After a while, Huayue whispered: "The scripture says, you may choose to marry the women you love, each with two wives, three wives, and four wives; but whoever marrys two women and prefers one and despise the other, then on the day of Resurrection, whose body will be torn in half."

Zhou Jun: "So, in a big-season marriage, men can marry multiple wives, but the premise is that everyone is equal, they must be treated equally and not be biased?"

Huayue: "Yes, there is another one in the Dashi marriage."

Zhou Jun: "What?"

Huayue: "Don't marry women who are worthy of their own, so that they believe... Don't marry your daughters to men who are worthy of their own, until they believe."

Zhou Jun: "In other words, if you want to marry a woman with a big food, the man must convert to Islam?"

Huayue nodded gently.

In the bedroom, I fell into silence.

After a long time, Zhou Jun looked at Huayue and asked softly: "One day, will you plan to return to your hometown and return to your family?"

Hua Yue turned around and prevented Zhou Jun from seeing her expression. She quickly walked out of the room, leaving only one sentence: "I have something more important to do than going home."
