Xiaosheng is really not a nerd Chapter 817: Forced
Xie Fu smiled and asked: "Are these laws that can be left or right really that much of a deterrent? As far as I know, the practice of marriage is widespread, and the imperial court also acquiesced to it with eyes closed.
"
Wang Junheng shouted coldly: "That's nonsense."
Xie Fu gave an example: "In the previous dynasty, Zheng Guogong had a wife named Li, who was also the wife of the country. The emperor gave his wife Li as the wife of the country. Whenever he came to the court to pay homage, the two wives shared the gift.",
Although it sounds illegal, it's not illegal if you don't look into it.
Wang Junheng was speechless. As a courtier, he often argued with other courtiers in the court. But facing Xie Fu, who was knowledgeable about the past and present, he was at a disadvantage even though he had the upper hand in everything.
He had no choice but to use his power to force others and said arrogantly: "No, you can only have one legitimate wife, and that is my royal family's legitimate daughter, Wang Wanzhi."
Xie Fu sighed: "If Mr. Wang insists on doing this, then I have no choice but to reluctantly give up my love and say goodbye." After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.
Wang Junheng was stunned when he saw this. He didn't react until Xie Fu came to the door: "Stop!"
"Thank you, Fu! Don't forget that you, the Jiedu Envoy of Huainan Province, were given to you by my royal family. Without the royal family, you are nothing, just a down-and-out disciple."
Xie Fu turned his back and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang threatened me."
Wang Junheng said solemnly: "I'm not threatening you, I just hope that Mr. Xie will think carefully about the pros and cons, so as not to implicate the entire Xie family and make Mr. Xie disappointed and sad."
He also said that he was not threatening him, so Xie Fu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter." He stepped out of the hall.
Wang Junheng was shocked when he saw it, and hurriedly chased after him, stopping Xie Fu in the corridor.
"If you have something to say, tell me carefully. If you ask me to go back like this, how will I explain to Wan Zhi, how will I explain to Mrs. Wang, how will I explain to the entire royal family? Are you trying to force me to death?"
Xie Fu said with a smile: "Wanzhi is not a common person. She is stuck in the customs. I have already talked with her about He Qing's matter."
Wang Junheng was surprised when he heard this: "You have already convinced her."
Xie Fu did not answer Wang Junheng's question and continued: "As for Mrs. Wang, Mr. Wang doesn't have to worry about it. I will give her an explanation."
Xiaoyun herself had a guilty conscience, so how could she dare to find trouble in front of him regarding this matter.
Wang Junheng was startled again and grinned.
"As for the princes, don't you princes think that my Xie family is of a lowly family? Marrying Wanzhi to me would be a treasonous marriage. If we do so directly, your princes will lose face."
Wang Junheng said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, it is not advisable."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "If I become a successful person in the future and the Xie family is more powerful than the prince, will you princes still think so?"
Wang Junheng was surprised when he heard this. If this was really the case, he would still feel a little uncomfortable, but it would be easier to accept it.
Seeing that there was room for discussion, Xie Fu took the initiative and said, "Mr. Wang, let's go back to the hall and talk."
After sitting down, he asked Caiwei to serve tea, and then continued: "Mr. Wang, Wanzhi is still in the period of observing filial piety. The marriage between the Wang and Xie families cannot be rushed, but He Qing cannot wait any longer.
"
Wang Junheng asked: "Why?"
Xie Fu lowered his voice and said, "He Qing already has my child."
These words were related to He Qing's reputation. Xie Fu didn't want to say it out loud, but at this moment he had no choice but to use it as a bargaining chip.
Wang Junheng was surprised when he heard this, and heard Xie Fu smile and say: "Mr. Wang, maybe we have only known each other for a short time, and you don't understand who I am, Xie Fu. I put friendship first, and everything else comes second."
Wang Junheng wanted to say something, but after hearing Xie Fu's words, he felt that it would be in vain, so he simply didn't speak.
Xie Fu continued: "The engagement between Wang and Xie's family has not been widely publicized yet. Even if I marry He Qing first, outsiders will not think that I have disgraced the prince. When Wan Zhi's filial piety period comes, I will
Marrying Wan Zhi in a glamorous way might turn out to be a good story about not abandoning his wife and respecting the prince. At that time, who would dare to let the prince's legitimate daughter be his concubine, and who would dare to ask me, Mr. Xie, to abandon his wife and marry him?
The famous lady, I'm afraid I wish I could support it with both hands and get the best of both worlds."
When Wang Junheng heard this, he thought to himself that such a reversal of the order is really moral, and he said: "Why do I feel like I am being led by you?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Mr. Wang, just tell me whether this is true."
Wang Junheng said: "I can't agree to this. I have to go back and discuss it with Mrs. Wang."
Xie Fu smiled and said, "Okay."
Wang Junheng asked in surprise: "Aren't you afraid?"
Xie Fu asked: "What am I afraid of?"
"Mrs. Wang is angry."
Xie Fun said: "I'm afraid I'm afraid, but we still have to do things this way?"
Although he was not happy to see this result, he had to admit that Wang Junheng admired Xie Fu's courage. In addition to not being afraid of the royal family, he also tried to break the thousand-year-old system.
Xie Li came to see Fu Xie specially, and he took this matter very seriously. Although he was in a dilemma, in the end he thought there was only one outcome, which was to abandon the Wang family and marry He Qing.
If you want to blame it, it's because Xie Fu is too romantic. If you want to blame it, it's because Xie Fu is so talented that he actually pursued Wang Wanzhi, the unparalleled scholar in the country. If he had a woman who could be his concubine, he wouldn't have so many worries.
And Wang Wanzhi’s identity is absolutely impossible for her to be a concubine!
He opened his mouth and asked: "How is the discussion with Mr. Wang going?"
Xie Fu responded: "Marry He Qing first."
Xie Li was surprised when he heard this: "Master Wang agreed?"
Xie Fu smiled bitterly and said, "How could he agree?"
"You pushed back the royal family's marriage?"
Thinking about it in Xie Li, this is the only possibility. If it is really the case, I have to admire my cousin's courage. Although I also believe that it is necessary, do you have the courage to speak?
This is undoubtedly quite a slap in the face of the Wang family. The little grass of the Xie family may not even have a chance to survive in front of such a big mountain as the Wang family.
Thinking of this, he said softly: "Why don't you discuss it with He Qing? He Qing is a woman who understands the general situation."
He secretly thought in his heart that whatever the Xie family owed He Qing would be repaid a hundred times a thousand times in the future.
Xie Fu responded: "I didn't push it either."
Xie Li was curious: "Then how to solve this problem?"
Xie Fu then told Xie Li everything about his conversation with Wang Junheng.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xie Li was surprised after hearing this: "Mercy? Is this feasible?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Whether it's okay or not, we can only do this for now. Okay, brother, don't worry about my affairs. For now, let's fulfill the centuries-old wish of the Gu and Xie families."
"Fu, I'll leave it to you."
Xie Li felt very proud and happy to be able to let Mr. Xie do the work.
At night, many lights lit up the usually deserted Xie Mansion.
But it's hard for Uncle Quan, who is so old that he just lights up lamps everywhere, and Xie's house is not that small.
In Uncle Quan's opinion, although the population is not very prosperous at the moment, there are already signs of prosperity.
The eldest young master is getting married soon, and there will be a young lady in the family.
The second young master has two fiancées, and now he has two young ladies. To serve these three young ladies, a lot of servants will be needed.
Then the three young ladies gave birth to children, and the family suddenly became lively.
The more Uncle Quan thought about it, the happier he became. He had not been this happy for a long time.
He was holding a lantern and lighting it at a certain place when suddenly a voice came: "Uncle Quan, what are you going to do in such a hurry?"
Uncle Quan heard Xie Fu's voice and said happily: "It's the second young master. I'm going to light the lamp."
Xie Fu asked curiously: "Where can I light the lamp?"
Uncle Quan waved his arm: "Light up all the places that can be lit, making the whole mansion ablaze."
Xie Fu looked around and saw that several courtyards were illuminated with lights and the lanterns in the corridors were also on. He asked, "Is this always the case?"
Before Gu Quan came, many lanterns were broken because they had been deserted for too long. In order to welcome Gu Quan, most of the lanterns in the house were replaced with new ones. He said, "There are none in normal times. Just today, Second Young Master, please go home."
, it’s a big happy event, it needs to be grand.”
Xie Fu smiled and asked, "How did things go today?"
Quan Bo proudly said: "That's still useful. Didn't you see their expressions when they got the money? How surprised and unbelievable they were."
"I told them that it was you who gave it to me, Second Young Master, and they were even more shocked. They asked me to ask, Second Young Master, if you have made a fortune."
Xie Fu burst out laughing.
Uncle Quan continued: "I told them that if they were willing to go back to Xie's house, they would be given another ten taels of silver, doubling their monthly payment. They immediately agreed and said they would come to see the master and you early tomorrow morning."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, come back."
"Second Young Master, the crowd is a bit scattered. Those who have signed the Living and Death Deeds, I will go and walk around tomorrow."
Xie Fu still said the same thing: "If you can't figure it out, come back to me, but you must say one thing, you can't force it on others."
Uncle Quan smiled and said: "Second Young Master, don't worry, you can get what you want. There is no need for me to force you."
"Okay, let's do this for now."
Xie Fu turned around and left.
Uncle Quan immediately asked: "It's dark now, where are you going, Second Young Master?"
"I would like to see it in the small courtyard."
Uncle Quan said hurriedly: "Oh, Second Young Master, you came too suddenly, and the place has not been tidied up."
"It doesn't matter, I'll go take a look."
After all, that was where Fu Xie lived. To be honest, he still missed that place. He was thinking about the rough wooden bed and wanted to try what it would feel like to lie on it.
"Second Young Master, let me hold the lamp for you."
Uncle Quan said, leading the way.
Soon I came to the courtyard where Xie Fu lived before. The courtyard door was open, and the lights in the rooms in the courtyard were on.
Xie Fu asked curiously: "Uncle Quan, did you order it?"
"No."
The yard has not been tidied up yet, so we can light any lamps as soon as the yard door is closed.
Xie Fu asked: "Who lives in this courtyard now?"
"No."
The two walked into the yard curiously. Uncle Quan noticed that the weeds in the yard had been cleared away, but there were no other changes.
The door of the house was open, the lights were on, and a man's figure had his back to the door, standing in front of the closet holding a book and reading. He was so absorbed that he didn't even notice the footsteps of the person coming.
Uncle Quan spoke softly: "Master Gu?"
The man turned around when he heard the sound. Who else could he be if he wasn't Gu Quan?
Xie Fu asked in confusion: "Uncle Gu?"
Xie Fu was puzzled as to why Gu Quan was here.
Gu Quan smiled and waved: "Nephew, you came just in time. How do you explain this paragraph?"
