That night, Uncle Zhu came to pay his respects to his father. This book is updated quickly on Baidu to search for a few books......

Mr. Zhu had to send Changqing back first and reminded him, "Come here tomorrow morning, let's have a meal together. I'll ask them to stew deer tendons, that's a good thing."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said goodbye with a wink.

Grandpa Zhu asked the eldest son, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly."

Uncle Zhu smiled, "I see that Changqing is a child who has grown up quite well. I want to ask, Alu has reached the age of getting married. My second sister and I are brothers and sisters, so we have a marriage together. How can my father do this marriage?"

"I'm confused. I'm your father, not Zhu Lu's father, and I can't care about the Zhao family's affairs. You asked the wrong person for this matter." Master Zhu played with the jade pendant on his waist, looked at the eldest son, and asked, "Also, have you taken a fancy to Changqing? Or Zhao Rong?"

Uncle Zhu said, "Both are good children. My father said which one is better, I will decide which one for Brother Lu."

Master Zhu looked at the eldest son with fun, "I won't mention this matter for now, there is still something to do, let's talk about it together."

There are only father and son indoors. Uncle Zhu knew his father's temper. Besides, in front of his own father, he didn't care about his temper. Uncle Zhu said, "My son resigned and retired, and he was a little anxious. I wonder if Xiang Peng would misunderstand?"

Grandpa Zhu asked, "Did you say hello to him before resigning from office?"

Uncle Zhu said, "Peng Xiang sighed twice, and said nothing else."

"That's it, what did he misunderstand you? You are at this age, either, you are not a minister or a prime minister. According to the court's rules, you will retire in two years. What's the point of not offending others?" Master Zhu said in his words about the eldest son's concern and said, "You are just afraid of marrying the Zhao family. Will Peng Xiang think too much about misunderstanding? Right?"

Uncle Zhu laughed, "My son's thoughts are never hidden from his father." His father is simply a monster, eating, drinking, having fun and playing, and playing. He is talking about an old man, but he is not very harmonious. The old man is very useful at critical moments. Especially, the old man has a strong relationship with Peng Xiang. He had just passed the Jinshi exam and entered the Hanlin area, and took the old man to live in the imperial capital for a while. At that time, the late emperor was in power, and Peng Xiang was not a prime minister and was not a high official in the court. The old man didn't care much about his Hanlin son.

To Peng Xiangna, who was still unsuccessful, was more close to Peng Xiang than to his own son. Of course, the old man had a long time ago. When Peng Xiang was sent to the border town to play, the two had a friendship. At that time, uncle Peng, Xiao Hanlin, didn't understand why his father was interested in dealing with the Peng family's cold stove. Later, Peng Xiang was promoted step by step, and now the emperor ascended the throne, and Peng Xiang entered the cabinet, uncle Zhu also had to admire the old man's eyesight. With such a father who was familiar with the prime minister of the dynasty, uncle Zhu would not dare to be unfilial, and the children and grandchildren of the Zhu family were filial to each other.

Now that Uncle Zhu is in trouble, and this matter is related to future generations and family fortunes, he naturally wants to bite the bullet and ask his own father for an idea.

Master Zhu asked, "What are Brother Lu doing these two days?"

Uncle Zhu said, "The first time that child has returned to his hometown, he has been with his brothers and sisters these two days, and he has been getting along well. Especially Arong, the granddaughter of the second sister's family, is quite talented."

Mr. Zhu said, "With my old face, if you want to marry the Zhao family, Peng Xiang will not blame you, but he will no longer care about the Zhu family as before. You can weigh the pros and cons of it yourself. I will not make this decision for you. As for Brother Lu'er's marriage, Changqing is not suitable. As for whether to marry your second sister's family, you make the decision for yourself. I am a great-grandfather and I can't care about my great-grandson."

Uncle Zhu agreed and said, "From my father's perspective, Empress Song..."

"I am not a senior official in the court, but just a letter from you. Your mother showed me the details. I don't know what the details are. Let me tell you."

Uncle Zhu frowned and said, "The Empress Dowager repeatedly attacked the Queen, and she forced the ninth prince to raise her in Cining Palace for a while. Now the Empress takes the prince and the princess to avoid the temple, and even in the court, she has made a very slight remark on the previous affairs of Empress Song. Empress Song and her brothers left the imperial capital, and now they are unknown. Song Rong resigned as Minister of the Secretariat because of his relatives. Now there is only one Marquis Cheng'en, and his influence is not as good as before. After Song Rong's second wife died of illness, everyone thought he would marry him, but they didn't want to just raise an old concubine in the family."

Master Zhu did not ask the Queen Mother how to fight, but instead asked, "Does Song Rong's concubine have any origin?"

"It's just an ordinary female family, who is from ordinary and serious families, and their parents have passed away. They lived with their uncle before and had a hard time, so they were said to be a second wife with the Song family. A young brother in the family named Du Jun, who took the imperial examination for the Jinshi. I heard that when Queen Song had not entered the palace, she helped Queen Song manage the free academy built by Queen Song. After a year in Hanlin, she was released as an official." Zhu Dawei said, "Also, a son of the former Qin Laoshu family of the Ministry of Rites was named Qin Zheng, and the grandson of the concubine's family who is now the minister of the Ministry of Rites, Li Rui, was helped Queen Song manage the business. The matter of Queen Song's free academy outside was too close to these families, which was quite verbal."

Grandpa Zhu asked, "In this way, the Empress Dowager's clan is quite aggressive."

"Yes, and Peng Xiang, Yuan also said something to the queen." Empress Song had a legitimate prince, but the ministers in the court did not like her. The emperor was old and the chaos in the court had appeared. Uncle Zhu thought of betting on both sides and retreated for the time being. He was still not worried for a while, so he had to find his father to make an idea.

Master Zhu looked at his eldest son and said, "You are right to resign. Your ability is fine when the weather is calm, and you can always live your life step by step. It is impossible when the wind and clouds are surging."

"First." Master Zhu stretched out a very well-maintained finger, and the round fingertips were slightly shiny. "No matter how hard the empress dowager opens her teeth and claws, she can't fight against the queen. No need to think about it anymore. In the struggle in the palace, Empress Song will be the winner."

"But, the Queen Mother is His Majesty's biological mother after all."

"It's useless that she is your majesty's grandmother. After Song Rong died, why didn't he marry another prominent house? With Song Rong's current status, it's easy to do it. But Song Rong was born to help his old concubine, and his old concubine was still of an ordinary background. He could suppress you for so many years and his methods were better than you. Can't you tell me? This is the intention of the Song family. The Song family is showing weakness to Your Majesty! Why do you show weakness? The weak have always pretended to be strong, and only the strong have a saying to show weakness." Master Zhu said lightly, "You can understand just by looking at this point. The Song family has a clear idea and acts very well. Who is Queen Song? You ministers cry and shout and hang themselves against the wall. She can still ascend to the throne in the world. With this point, she is better than the people in the world. The Queen Mother is just Your Majesty's biological mother, and she can't beat the queen."

Uncle Zhu said, "Would you like to remind Peng Xiang?"

"Can you help me, can't you even understand this? I think everyone is like you." Mr. Zhu said.

Uncle Zhu smiled, "It's always our wish."

In the candlelight, Master Zhu's eyes were deep, and he said warmly, "Boss, what's the use of this kind of intention that is not even icing on the cake? If you have the intention, first, you shouldn't resign at this time. If you resign as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, it's hard to say who will go up. Second, why are you thinking about marrying the Zhao family? Where did you place Peng Xiang's care for these years?"

Uncle Zhu's face was burning and said for a long time, "Father, Peng Xiang insisted on opposing the enthronement of Queen Song, but Peng Xiang's grandson Peng Yanrong wrote a letter to support the enthronement of Queen Song. Did the Peng family also place bets on both ends?"

Grandpa Zhu sighed softly, "Even if the Peng family wants to place bets on both sides, why should they destroy the Great Wall by slapping themselves in the face? Peng Yanrong must have never known what Peng Yanrong did."

Uncle Zhu said, "Father, my son is at his age and has become a senior official in the third rank. He has been prosperous and wealthy all his life. Even now, there is no regret for him to close his eyes. But what should I do if my descendants do? My son is thinking to pave the way for his descendants to make it easier for them to leave."

Grandpa Zhu smiled loudly, and Fang narrowed his eyes and asked mercilessly, "How are you planning to lay this? You know in your heart that it is Changqing who has contact with Manager Li. However, you should have found out about her in the past two days, and you also feel that she is not in line with the rules of a lady, and plan to abandon her and leave Zhao Rong. Anyway, they are all the daughters of a father, right?"

Uncle Zhu hurriedly said, "If my father..."

"There is nothing if it's not if it's not! You don't have to involve me!" Master Zhu interrupted his eldest son and said, "I've said everything I should say. I'm going to go back to the other courtyard after the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th. I'll decide for yourself. You don't have to ask me again." He drove the person out impatiently.

Although Uncle Zhu did not receive any preferential treatment from his father, Master Zhu had this temper and his own father. He got used to it. He went back to the house to think about it in the middle of the night. Because he did not bring his aide home, he discussed it with his mother for half a day the next day.

Don’t look at Mrs. Zhu’s ability, and the housekeeper is also a good person. The old lady was a little confused when she was in major national affairs. Mrs. Zhu said, “Your father has such a temper. When I don’t have a good time, I will ask him a sure letter.”

Generally, when parents talk alone, Uncle Zhu doesn’t have to follow each other.

Except for something, Mrs. Zhu didn't go to Mr. Zhu's yard. The couple couldn't tell the same thing from their outlook on life to their worldview. However, for major issues related to the fate of the family, Mrs. Zhu still asked Mrs. Zhu to make an idea.

Master Zhu was listening to Zhao Changqing playing the flute, and when he saw his wife, "What, have you complained to you again?" Because he thought Uncle Zhu's beard was ugly, Master Zhu nicknamed his son, so he called him "A Beard".

Old Mrs. Zhu smiled and said to Zhao Changqing, "Aling and the others are writing poems and joking in the garden, so Changqing should go and have fun."

Zhao Changqing glanced at Master Zhu and went down.

Master Zhu grabbed a grape to eat with boring fun. Old Mrs. Zhu sat opposite her husband, sent the maids to leave and said, "The boss has no idea. You are more difficult to find than outsiders to find someone who is your biological father."

Master Zhu said leisurely, "This idiot, I spent so much spit last night."

If you ask for something, even if you don’t listen to it, Old Mrs. Zhu endured it and asked directly, “Just say, can you do the marriage with the Zhao family?”

Master Zhu glanced at his old wife and muttered, "I'm really worried enough!"

Old Mrs. Zhu slapped the table and whispered, "I'm worried about being fucked by outsiders? You kicked your legs yourself. No matter if others live or die, I can't watch my descendants go begging for food!"

Master Zhu sighed, "People and affairs have metabolism, and family have rise and fall."

Old Mrs. Zhu frowned and thought for a moment, "Is the situation so steep?"

"What's the use of the eldest brother resigning? The second brother and the third brother are in office, and there is a young man in the family as an imperial examination. Although the family has something to do with Peng Xiang, Peng Xiang has paid back over the years. The boss thinks beautifully and bets on both sides? Peng Xiang is still in office. Doesn't the tea cool down before the person leaves? Officials are stuck in the Ministry of Revenue every year when they visit. Peng Xiang doesn't need to explain. He has a wrong look, and someone will clean up the second brother and the third brother and the fifth brother." Master Zhu tapped the table with his fingertips, "He has been an official for many years and can't even see through this. What else can I say?"

Old Mrs. Zhu was silent for a while, "You are his biological father, he can't see through it, just teach him."

"I'm too lazy to teach, you go and teach. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I'll go back to the villa."

Old Mrs. Zhu said, "It is also a true relative with the Zhao family, and it is not very important to have a marriage relationship. Besides, I like Changqing, but I just look at Brother Lu, and it seems to have some interest in Arong."

Master Zhu grabbed an orange in his hand and peeled it and stuffed it to Mrs. Zhu half. "You have enough of your heart, so why not take a break for a while?"

Old Mrs. Zhu sighed, "You can't feel at ease when you are alive."

Master Zhu seemed to be smiling, "The descendants will remember you."

Old Mrs. Zhu discussed with Mr. Zhu, "In the past few days, I have thought about asking Brother Zhuang to take Brother Lu to meet the brothers and elders in the clan. What do you think?"

Master Zhu smiled slowly, "Oh, that's not because Master Lu is tired. He should have asked him to sit in the main hall and call his tribe members to kowtow and greet him one by one."

Old Mrs. Zhu couldn't hold back her face when she sarcastically gave Master Zhu a sarcastic look and said angrily, "The child has only been back for two days, and she is so tired that she just rests for two days."

Master Zhu still smiled and said sincerely, "No, the sisters who are young and poetic, are really tired easily."

Old Mrs. Zhu was angry, "I can't talk to you." She was so angry that she was the gentleman of Master Zhu again, and said, "You think that Xiao is inappropriate, how good it is to just say it." As soon as her children and grandchildren came back, she was just happy and thought about a few days of serious banquets for the tribe, but she forgot that Zhu Lu was a junior, so she went to each family to invite a word. This old man remembered it, but he didn't say it, and even more angry.

Grandpa Zhu smiled, "He has his own parents and his own ideas, why do I need to worry about it? It's all, I'll enjoy it one day."

Every time Mrs. Zhu talks to Mr. Zhu, she is so angry that she is still angry. Before she finishes her work, she has to continue to endure it and says, "Since our family has no meaning in marriage, it's better to send a letter and tell Peng Xiang what our family wants. Don't misunderstand for so many years of old friendships."

Mr. Zhu said, "What letter should I write? I ask the boss to find a marriage as soon as possible for Alu to decide. Although it is easy to find a daughter who is loyal to Peng Xiang, the marriage will definitely be true, and Peng Xiang will naturally know. Then ask the boss to write a letter to Chen Ming."

Old Mrs. Zhu said, "This is good. When the boss writes the letter, you have to show it to him."

Master Zhu said strangely, "Has he grown up in the imperial capital over the years?" He asked me to show me the letter.

Old Mrs. Zhu suppressed her anger and said, "The three cobblers are even more powerful than Zhuge Liang. This matter is very important. What's wrong with you checking him?"

Master Zhu smiled and put a fair-skinned and beautiful face in front of Mrs. Zhu, saying, "You kiss me and I will answer you."

Old Mrs. Zhu pushed Master Zhu's face away, and his face was so ashamed that he spat, "I'm not serious, are you ashamed!"

Master Zhu said leisurely, "I have given birth to three children, and now I think they are not serious. If you kiss me, I won't do anything for you if you don't kiss me!"

Facing Mr. Zhu's scoundrel face, Mrs. Zhu was dizzy and suspicious again. I must have been blind at that time to marry such a mess! Seeing Mr. Zhu's hateful face leaning forward again, Mrs. Zhu took up the orange peel on the table and pressed it on Mr. Zhu's face. Regardless of Mr. Zhu's howling, Mrs. Zhu pressed it twice, and turned around and left in a angrily manner!
