At that time, she placed an order with Wuxi, asking them to first threaten Huo Lingjue's stepmother and ask her scumbag father to adopt him and Nian Nian.
Wuge's movements were very nimble and he made his move quickly, and his stepmother also successfully persuaded Huo Changqi, the scumbag father.
So Huo Changqi wanted to find a random person from the clan to settle down and adopt them out.
But midway, Emperor Wu Xuan summoned Huo Lingjue, and then Emperor Wu Xuan took action.
What the emperor wants to do is very simple. You don't have to worry about the follow-up. Just give the idea to the old man and he will do it naturally.
After all, Uncle Zhongshun really didn't have much ability. He was once a military commander, but not very powerful.
Loyalty, loyalty and respect, if they don't even have this, what else do they have?
The old man was so frightened that he couldn't sleep all night, trying hard to figure out what the emperor meant.
Before he could come over and settle the accounts with Huo Changqi, Huo Changqi went back by himself and raised the issue of adoption.
When he arrived at the hot spot, the old man who never cared about such things immediately understood what the emperor meant, and then got angry and beat him up.
The old man looks kind to outsiders, but he is actually a hard-hearted person.
In modern terms, he is a person who strongly believes in the law of the jungle and uses it to educate his children and grandchildren.
In short, if you want me to treat you well, you must show your value. The higher your value, the more resources you will get.
This is actually a common method among many families with little foundation.
After Dasheng unified all the countries, many titles were granted to them, but unless the emperor gave them favor, they would all be demoted. For example, they were originally an uncle, so what else would they get if they were demoted? The clan still had a lot of titles.
There is no such thing as a different surname!
Therefore, with limited connections and limited resources, it is necessary to ensure that each generation has successful children and grandchildren to inherit it. The best one must be selected and carefully cultivated to ensure the continuation of the family. As for the unpromising children and grandchildren, they must
Just ignored it.
For example, the scumbag father Huo Changqi.
Although he is the legitimate son, he is not good at anything, and he has committed the one thing that the old man hates most... He wanted to use a woman to gain power, so he was kicked out of the house early, and except for the New Year holiday, he was ignored.
So this time, he lost his temper and hit people so hard that Huo Changqi was in pain and confused.
But after the beating, the old man said, since you don’t want this son, then don’t want it.
Then he personally invited the clan elders and, with great fanfare, recorded Huo Lingjue and Niannian in the name of his third son who died just after birth.
This operation was enough to stun the scumbag. What was even more unexpected was that the next day, the decree was issued and the old man was promoted to the title of Marquis Zhongsu.
The old man requested an official appointment, and then passed the title to his eldest son, Huo Chang'an, Zha's eldest brother.
As for the new Marquis Zhongsu who came to power, yes, the emperor specifically ordered not to surrender the title of Xi, and he also submitted a letter to establish Huo Lingjue as his heir apparent.
This series of things made Daddy Scumbag look dumbfounded.
You know, Huo Changan himself has a biological son, and two legitimate sons, both of whom are quite capable, and both are older than Huo Lingjue. No matter how it turns out, Huo Lingjue will not be the heir apparent, right?
Besides, his father is doing well and has just climbed the hurdle of being promoted from the fourth grade to the third grade with great difficulty. Why is he suddenly about to retire?
Without such an official position, what can a Marquis title be?
But that's what happened, Huo Changqi thought in hindsight... So, did Huo Lingjue, the rebellious son, fall in love with some powerful person?
Anyway, it can’t be the emperor, can it?
But no matter who it is, he is no longer his father. The more semi-expensive but not expensive a family is, the more they care about adoption. To put it bluntly, no one will throw the basin after he dies, and Huo Ling will never do it. Potted.
Shen Zhoujin listened to this section just like listening to a story.
In fact, the status of the prince of the Hou family is not very high. Therefore, in this matter, it is not so much that the emperor wants to give Huo Lingjue an status, but rather that the emperor just does not want to give this status to the original Huo family.
The old man was indeed shrewd. He probably just wanted him to deal with Huo Changqi, but he managed to keep Huo Lingjue in their home. In this way, Huo Lingjue would not be too disgusted with him. It is also a kind of preservation for the family.
Then she asked: "Just that, what else?"
Just to let the scumbag father find out what the stepmother knows, and then think that the eldest son is not his biological son or something?
Qin Yunchiao said: "Don't worry, we Wuge are reputable, and the jobs we take on will be done beautifully!"
Shen Zhoujin smiled and cupped his hands towards him, and glanced at Huo Lingjue out of the corner of his eye.
To be honest, Huo Ling is definitely not a stingy person.
Although he hated his biological father, he had no sympathy for his grandfather's family.
It is true that they did not lend a helping hand to him, but this was not enough for him to hold a grudge against them.
Because people like the old man can only be called "not a good person", or to be precise, "not a good grandfather/father", but they cannot be called "evil people".
He just values the family's inheritance above everything else, even more than himself.
But like a scumbag father, he has no ability, and he gets married based on a plan. When he finds out that the plan is in vain, he begins to spoil his concubines and kill his wife. He allows his concubines to ride on the head of the main wife, and he allows his step-brothers to harm their children... He is a vicious and shameless person. It's best to deal with this kind of rotten person like this.
The wealth he loved most had been delivered to him, but now it was gone again. He could not see or touch it for the rest of his life. How sad and refreshing it was? It must be a sour feeling that scratches his heart and liver every day.
Qin Yunchiao also looked at Huo Lingjue and couldn't help but say: "You two really share the same fate... and share the same illness."
Shen Zhoujin said nothing.
Qin Yunchiao changed the topic again: "By the way, did you tell Ling Jue that coal can be eaten?"
Shen Zhoujin smiled: "Yes!"
"It's really edible?" Qin Yunqiao was surprised: "Today Ling Jue told Xiao Lu, I thought it was a joke, but he said it was you who said it... Then Xiao Lu was dubious, so he picked a piece on the spot and washed it. Take a bite..."
He burst into laughter as he spoke: "Tell me, if a normal person can't chew after one bite, then even if he can't bite with his front teeth, he has to use his big teeth. After biting down, he actually chewed twice before he followed. I said Huo Ling is a liar and cannot be eaten."
puff!
Shen Zhoujin smiled and said: "No, if you were a normal person, you wouldn't eat it at all."
She suddenly remembered that there was a kind of briquette cake that was very popular in modern times. She immediately cheered up and took out a piece from the space: "Quick, take it to tease him."
Qin Yunchiao: "..."
He was mentally prepared for her big change, but this was the first time he witnessed it up close and personal. He struggled to maintain a calm expression, then took the piece of cake, smelled it, and licked it again. I was a little excited and said, "Isn't this good?"
While carrying the cake, he went out.
Shen Zhoujin immediately picked one up and grabbed Huo Lingjue to watch the fun together.
Everyone had come back and were gathering in the hall to talk. Qin Yunchiao went in with the cake. As expected, Lu Zhiji was the first to see it and said, "What are you doing with coal?"
"Oh," Qin Yunchiao said seriously: "I asked Jin'er. Coal can be eaten, but it cannot be eaten directly. It must be steamed. I asked them to steam a few. Can you try it?"
Lu Zhiji didn't believe it at all: "You want to deceive me again, I can't possibly be fooled twice!"
Qin Yunchiao said: "You really don't want to taste it? Then I can eat it?"
"You eat! You eat!" Lu Zhiji said: "If you dare to take a bite, I will call you daddy."
puff!
The elegant and noble young master Qin Yunqiao shook his head with a smile.
Shen Zhoujin couldn't help but laugh. Tell me, this person's head is a gift, so he can't win without force!
