"Yes, Madam!" Uncle Zhong bowed and replied.

Uncle Zhong had already expected this, not only for Zhang Guifen, but also for the Duke and the Young Duke and others.

There is no way, who said that the most important thing in the British government right now is Zhang Guifen's marriage?

Everyone in this big family is thinking about it!

After hearing that Uncle Zhong had already made preparations, the British princess immediately felt relieved.

"After all, he is the old man next to his father-in-law!", the British father-in-law thought secretly, "When Sister Fen gets married in the future, I will have to recruit more talents!"

"Only the elderly in our own family can use it with peace of mind!"

However, the British princess secretly felt funny. She felt that she seemed to be thinking a little too much.

After all, my daughter’s marriage has not yet been settled!

She nodded towards Uncle Zhong, and then focused on the pile of "documents". Although the British princess looked unhurried on her face, judging from her hand speed that was much faster than usual,

I'm afraid she is not "the same on the outside", and she is probably very anxious in her heart!

Seeing this, Uncle Zhong didn't bother him. He just pursed his lips, seeming to reveal a bit of a smile, and then bowed respectfully to the British princess.

"Um."

The British duchess waved her hand and looked at the information in her hand carefully. At the same time, she muttered in a low voice: "This young man is quite good, and his family background is good!"

"Huh? This is very appropriate. His grandmother and my family are family friends..."

After signaling Uncle Zhong to do his own thing, the British princess completely devoted her mind to the things in her hands.

Poor parents in the world, the British father-in-law is really exhausted physically and mentally for his own daughter!

There is nothing I can do, whose daughter is loved by someone else!

After receiving the instructions from the British duchess, Uncle Zhong immediately retreated quietly. After retreating outside the door, Uncle Zhong hurriedly called the female envoy who was standing in the courtyard and ordered:

"According to the instructions of the eldest lady, you quickly go to the girl's yard and give this to the girl."

With that said, Uncle Zhong took the manuscript that he had prepared a long time ago and continued to speak: "Just say that the eldest lady asked the girl to study these carefully to see if there is anything she likes?"

Although he was already an old man in the palace, Zhang Guifen was still a lady who had not yet left the palace, so Uncle Zhong just asked the female envoy on the side to convey the instructions.

After the female envoy left, Uncle Zhong couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Girl, you really can't drag it out any longer this time!"

In fact, the British father-in-law was right when she said something before, that is, Zhang Guifang's marriage cannot be delayed any longer.

Although the British Dukedom is hereditary, it can be said that it is a family that lives together with the country for generations.

but!

How much you get is how much you have to pay.

Although the Zhang family has enjoyed a lot of glory and wealth, they also have to pay a lot of price.

Not to mention how many of the Zhang family's sons died in battle, most of their daughters were married to others to consolidate the Zhang family's right to speak in the court.

Of course, the Zhang family's purpose of doing this does have some meaning of glory and wealth, but it is undeniable that as a military family, the Zhang family also has its own persistence. Otherwise, even if it is not what it is today,

status, but relying on the achievements of the ancestors of the Zhang family, they can still continue to be prosperous and wealthy.

All of this was just because the Zhang family wanted to serve the court. After all, this world was the result of the joint efforts of the ancestors of the Zhang family and the founder of the country.

The glory of our ancestors cannot be tarnished!

The Zhang family has its own persistence.

Uncle Zhong knew that the most important reason why he was urging Zhang Guifen to get engaged quickly was because of the current situation in the court.

At present, the princes are gradually growing up, especially Prince Yong, Prince Yan and other princes are getting more and more mature, but the position of the East Palace has been undecided, which can't help but make the princes cast their eyes on the few people in the court.

On the boss.

Among them, leaving aside the civil servants for the moment, as far as the generals are concerned, the first among them is the British Duke Zhang family. Especially, the Zhang family only has one legitimate daughter, Zhang Guifang.

If you can marry Zhang Guifen into your own family, it goes without saying that your "success rate of ascending to the throne" will be greatly increased!

——This is the common aspiration of all "ambitious" princes.

It is a pity that the British Duke and the current officials have a tacit understanding for a long time. The two have blocked various means and even traps, openly and secretly, with the purpose of preventing Zhang Guifen from marrying into the royal family.

It's just that, as the saying goes, "It's easy to hide from an open gun, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow." Especially as time goes by, the health of today's official families is becoming more and more unhealthy. The princes, especially those with serial numbers at the front, they

His courage and actions are also getting bigger and bigger.

In fact, the British Duke also understands that this kind of siding is inevitable. However, with the British Duke's signature, as long as he does not take the initiative to bet, in the future, even if the new emperor comes to power, it will not have any big impact on the British Duke's government.

This action is nothing more than suppressing the power of their family.

But with the size of the Zhang family, these are nothing, and the strength of the Zhang family in the military is not that simple.

All in all, in addition to considering the overall situation, the British father also cares about the happiness of his daughter.

As soon as she entered the palace, as long as she did not marry into the royal family, no matter who Zhang Guifen married in the future, the British government would have enough capital to support her. Therefore, Uncle Zhong would express such emotion and hope that Zhang Guifen would be able to marry her soon.

We made a good marriage arrangement and got through this difficult time.

And Zhang Guifen is not ignorant about this.

…

The British Duke's mansion survived four dynasties and was expanded twice. It is magnificent and far superior to other princely mansions.

But in the center of the British government palace, there is a very special house.

This house is called the Hongzhuang Pavilion. Although it is just a villa of the British government, it has a lot of things inside.

I saw that there are three main entrances to the makeup store. The roof tiles are made of clay, and the door rails and partitions are also meticulously carved. Their designs are the most fashionable at the moment, but they are different from other British mansions.

The style is different, a little less solemn, but a little more playful.

Looking down, you can see the same color of water mill walls. The white stone steps below are carved into the shape of white lotus flowers. Under the snow-white powder walls on the left and right sides, there are even tiger skin stones with unpredictable textures. The overall look is indeed unconventional.

It makes people feel happy when they see it.
