Chapter 62: Father and Son Confrontation
The Liao family's flower-viewing banquet was held with great grandeur. Although the truly famous Hanying family could not spare the dignity of letting their daughter-in-law come over to join in the number, it was still a show of respect. Many men attended the flower-viewing banquet.
Although the Liao family did not attach much importance to the issue of male and female defense due to their status, many Xiaojiabiyu were invited to the banquet this time, so they could not be taken lightly.
Therefore, inside Liao's house, the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard are all brightly lit.
Looking at the golden sea of flowers not far away, Gu Jinshu was slightly absent-minded. Although she was not a person who was sad for spring and sad for autumn, she was also a person who cherished and loved flowers. She also cherished the sweet-scented osmanthus in the garden quite a bit.
"Like it very much?"
Everyone Liao stared at her and chuckled. She always had an inexplicable feeling towards this girl who had not yet had sex. Logically speaking, such a young and pretty girl should not have such a visual impact on her, but some things did not
It really happened.
"How can you not be happy with this rare and magnificent sight?"
The place in Peidu is not suitable for growing osmanthus, so it is rare for aristocratic families to have such dense osmanthus forests. I don’t know how the Liao family did it.
"No matter how beautiful the scene is, it will wither if not taken care of."
What she said was quite profound, and she didn't know whether she was talking about people or things, but Gu Jinshu chuckled lightly and did not respond.
Liao and others did not say anything more after a boring discussion, but went straight to the topic: "Are you sure Jizhou will be rich in land in the future?"
"Don't you dare to gamble, Liao?"
According to her memories of her previous life, most of the nobles from the north moved south. This place is indeed very rich in land, and the reason why she said this to her was just to leave a way out for herself, which she could use.
Although his assets are small, the land price in Jizhou is not very high at this time.
"It's not that I'm timid, it's that you are too young."
If an old man who had seen all the vicissitudes of life told her that the land in Jizhou would greatly increase in value in the future, she would probably believe it, but the age of the person in front of her made it impossible to fully believe it.
"...That's really a pity, age can't change..."
But she stopped mid-sentence, why couldn't her age change? Didn't Shen Qingci change from a young man to a white man? It's just that his experience should be an exception, and it is difficult to happen again.
Furthermore, what if it could happen? Do you still want to become an old woman in your sixties?
The answer is no.
"How did you get this news?"
Mr. Liao is a radical person, otherwise he wouldn’t have worked so hard to build a huge Liao’s business. When Gu Jinshu talked to her about Jizhou that day, she could faintly sense that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
.
But sometimes people are like this. Even if they have concerns in their hearts, they always hope to get a unified answer from others. This way, they feel that they have no worries.
"I know you don't believe me, and I won't lie to you. I heard this accidentally from my father and the accountant in my family who is very capable." After she finished speaking, she paused and suddenly smiled mysteriously, "My accountant.
Sir, everyone Liao must know something about it!"
She wasn't sure how deep the relationship between Mr. Liao and Shen Qingci was. According to common sense, Mr. Liao had asked her about Shen Qingci in a subtle way, so the two people should have had private contact.
As for why Shen Qingci deliberately contacted the Liao family, it is actually understandable. The death of the Liao family in the previous life can be said to have increased the conflict between Beicang and Da Zhou, and also accelerated the protracted war that led to the rapid demise of the Zhou Dynasty.
It can be said that the Great Zhou was devastated, and the newly built Great Qin had to slow down its development.
Shen Qingci has always been an ambitious master. The country he wants to take over in this life is not a devastated country. Before he can establish his own power, it is the best choice for the Liao family to stay alive.
"Mr. Shen?"
Everyone Liao narrowed her eyes. She had not seen Mr. Shen since the last time they left the East Lake. What did this mysterious-looking person want to do? To be fair, although that person was as smart as a monster, she was not.
She is not very willing to deal with him. She always feels suppressed in front of him.
"yes."
Knowing that Shen Qingci's weather-beaten face was extremely deceptive, Gu Jinshu could only pull the tiger's skin to pull the flag.
It stands to reason that a person like him who is so busy every day should not care about these small things.
"good."
After receiving her affirmative answer, the Liao family breathed a sigh of relief, and Gu Jinshu also secretly loosened the clenched fists under Guangxiu. She was really worried that the Liao family would regret it. Fortunately, this woman was extremely ambitious and would not take any chance.
Will let it go.
"Today there are many young talents coming to my house, but do you want my sister to introduce them to you?"
Having decided on this important matter, Liao and others took some time to joke with her, their eyes rolling around her body.
"..."
This was the first time in Gu Jinshu's life to see such a non-vegetarian woman, and she couldn't help but be a little stunned and a little unbelievable.
As if they were amused by her silly movements, everyone in Liao couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Well, I know that your girl is a mean person, so I won't joke with you anymore."
After all, she is a pretty girl raised in a boudoir. Although she has always behaved generously in front of him, she is still a little younger after all.
The Liao family's flower viewing banquet had just ended when they were admitted to the palace by the emperor. As soon as they entered the door, they heard the emperor's furious voice: "Can't the girls of the Pei family fall into your eyes?"
"Father, I have no plans to get married for the time being."
When she walked in, she saw the serious voice of the Prince of the East Palace who was kneeling there, and his determined expression looked very plain, neither happy nor sad.
"Damn it, you approved of this at the time, and you actually changed your mind?"
If he hadn't nodded in agreement, he might not have agreed to the queen's request. After all, he had betrayed his trust in the matter of Pei Jinniang, and he could not end the grudge if the marriage failed.
After all, Dazhou now needs the support of these powerful families.
"It was just a child who was not thinking carefully at the time, but looking back now, I feel that this matter is very inappropriate." He lowered his head so that no one could see the slightest change in his expression. This is the most noble father and son in Zhou Dynasty.
The two of them were in a stalemate, and it was the Liao family who broke the silence, "Your Majesty."
The emperor sitting on the dragon chair took a deep breath when he heard her voice, and then waved to Prince Zhou: "You go down and have a rest first. There are some things you must think about before and after. You must know that you represent the future of Zhou Dynasty."
.”
"promise."
Prince Zhou pursed his chapped lips for a few times and finally stood up and left without saying a word. After he left, the Liao family reluctantly persuaded him: "Since you don't want to, why should the emperor force others to do something difficult?"
"It's not because of force, but because some things have to be done. Although the Pei family is not as glorious as our ancestors, it still has the heritage of being hereditary."
