"I, Wang Shaodian, should be reinstated." Ding Kui's idea was very simple.
"It's difficult, it's difficult!" Shaodianmian changed his sitting position to make himself more comfortable.
"How can we trouble you with simple things? We should do our best for the sake of the kingdom." Ding Kui came here to meet Shaodian Mian and knew what the other person was thinking.
The Great Elder could have arranged a meeting in the capital, and I believed that the Intelligence Department would not be able to find anything, but he invited Ding Kui and his wife to Fuguo County, obviously wanting to have an in-depth conversation.
The purpose of Ding Kui's side is clear and simple. What really needs to be discussed is the interests of Shaodian Mian's side.
"I have been in contact with several elders, and most of them have no clear tendency. The key lies in the word 'profit'. If you want to restore the young Dianfeng, you need to take great risks. The older people prefer comfort, and no one will want to go if there is no profit."
Dangerous?" Shaodianmian said very straightforwardly, just hiding himself behind other elders.
This old guy is good at speaking in secret. If you talk in circles with him, you will get confused. You have to be more realistic.
Ding Kui had a preliminary understanding of the Great Elder.
"My husband and I were reckless and acted on our own behalf to supervise the country. However, our power has not been personally recognized by the monarch. There are some things we have agreed to now and we cannot guarantee that they will be implemented in the future." He did not dare to let go easily.
"Haha, the interests of the kingdom are the interests of the Shaodian clan. As representatives of the clan, we will not harm the interests of the kingdom." Shaodianmian set the tone.
This is very important, as it is equivalent to a promise not to squeeze out and usurp the royal power of Shaodianfeng.
Ding Kui stated that interests could be discussed within a certain range, while Shao Dianmian stated that the bottom line of national interests would not be exceeded. The two sides reached a basic intention for the talks.
Next, Shaodian extended his friendship as a landlord, warmly entertained Ding Kui and his wife, and did not mention the restoration of Shaodian at all.
At night, Ding Kui and his wife went back to their room to rest. Shao Dian Luan, who was still dressed as a middle-aged woman, asked: "What 'profit' does the Great Elder want?"
"Don't you see? People are eyeing Yuanyuan."
"No, I didn't mention your son at all." Shao Dianluan was sure that he heard correctly.
"As soon as I brought it up, I was left behind."
Ding Kui's mental power enveloped the entire room.
"Why do that young couple sit next to us?"
"Are you talking about the couple whose wife is pregnant?" Shaodian Luan was impressed.
"Well, they represent the families of the two elders, both of whom have pure Shaodian blood. If my guess is correct, a girl will be born in half a year."
"This is just your guess." Shao Dianluan was a little unconvinced, "How did they know they would be pregnant with a girl?"
"They started making arrangements when your son was born. Isn't it easy to combine the strength of both families to have a baby girl?"
"That's it." Shaodian Luan shuddered, "They are like tools. How will they live in the future? Can they educate their children well? If we don't accept it, won't their efforts be in vain?"
She was very resistant to this approach in her heart and did not want her son to marry a created person.
"Don't you know? That's right. You left the capital too early and no one taught you. I should be lucky to insist on taking you home." Ding Kui gently held his forehead, "The ancient families all have a way of survival.
Any clan member can be sacrificed for the benefit of the family.
That couple can only accept the life given by the family and live under the family's arrangements. If things go well, they can enjoy the best family resources. If things fail, they can also receive certain compensation, so that their efforts will not be in vain."
"Do you also want to arrange Yuanyuan's life?"
A pair of bright eyes looked at Ding Kui.
"I don't want to." Ding Kui met his gaze calmly, "But we have to make a choice."
"I used to be just a small earl. After inheriting the family title, I was just a marquis. I could only command a county.
But now, everything we do involves national interests, and a single thought can determine the fate of hundreds of millions of people. We can't just think about ourselves."
Shaodian Luan's eyes flashed.
She understood the basic principles, but when it came to her son, she was confused, "Why should an ignorant child have to bear so much?" As a mother, she didn't accept it.
"Is Young Diancong sensible? He still has to shoulder the responsibility of being a king, even if it is imposed on him by others."
Ding Kui grabbed one of his wife's hands and said, "I respect your opinion. Maybe we can exchange it without Yuanyuan's marriage. That's just the condition implied by the great elder."
"Is Yuanyuan's marriage so important?" Shaodian Luan was struggling in his heart.
"If he becomes the king, do you think it will matter? And his queen has many conditions, which you should know."
"Yes." Shaodian Luan nodded reluctantly, "You must marry a woman of the same clan as your queen to maintain the royal bloodline, and the queen's son cannot be revoked of his inheritance rights unless he has made any serious mistakes."
"So, Yuanyuan's marriage is equivalent to a battle for succession. Which family wouldn't be jealous?"
"Will that day really happen?" Shao Dianluan's confusion was written on his face.
"Even Master Gui can't give you this answer. It mainly depends on Brother Feng's physical condition. No one can say for sure. Don't ask me. I don't want to predict." Ding Kui was also confused.
"Since it is something uncertain, can't the Great Elder change the conditions?"
"No matter whether Yuanyuan can sit on the throne or not, he is a favorite in the eyes of the elders. No girl from any family will be at a disadvantage if she marries him. It will affect at least three generations of our family. What conditions are better than this?" Ding Kui
Think very clearly.
He and Shaodian Mian both considered the issue as heads of the family, so they naturally came up with the same idea.
"It sounds like you are willing to accept this condition." Shao Dianluan asked Ding Kui the question.
"From another perspective, we are just deciding on Yuanyuan's marriage in advance. The result is to choose a real wife for Yuanyuan. If there is a suitable candidate, we might as well decide on it early." Ding Kui turned his head to avoid his wife's gaze.
It is not surprising that he made such a decision. His own marriage was decided by his elders, so there is no big psychological barrier to setting a marriage for his son.
Shaodian Luan asked: "How do you know that a child is suitable for a child that has not yet been born?"
"Shaodian Mian knows how to raise a queen. Looking at Phu Quoc County, it is not difficult to see his abilities and characteristics. The girls raised in this environment will not be bad; the appearance of the couple is also considered to be excellent, and the girls born in this environment are not bad.
My daughter is not ugly at all." Ding Kui observed carefully.
"It was you who calculated it again. Can you calculate everything? What if you calculated it wrong?" Shao Dianluan was very dissatisfied with this answer.
"Yuanyuan is also my biological child. How can I not think carefully? Everything is based on the restoration of brother Feng. In the future, it will not be a matter of a word to transfer some people from the palace. If you don't believe me, you don't believe the royal family."
Ability?"
"You mean we can participate in training our daughter-in-law?" Shao Dianluan was moved.
